Hello kelapagading,
If you want to change the name of the block, you can do it from Visual Composer->Block Settings->General->Custom title for this block, like this: http://screencast.com/t/MXdewYGP
For more information about category changes and block changes, please consult our documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Also, please check our YouTube section because there we have a lot of useful tutorials:

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
If it not what you mean, please provide more details about this, so I can be able to provide a more accurate response.
Thank you for the message!
Hi
The sort order for posts displayed in blocks/grids it’s controlled by the settings from block filter: http://screencast.com/t/wblDIA2Jfst The theme doesn’t have an option to display a specific post on a specific position from grid. To achieve that you will need a custom modifications in theme core files. Unfortunately we cannot offer any customizations services at the moment so if you need this and you’re not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer to do this for you.
Thanks!
Hi
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an infinite scroll pagination for latest article section. This pagination is available only for blocks so you can duplicate this section using a block from Visual Composer. For example you can use block 6 with infinite load pagination: http://screencast.com/t/EKX3G6G67MO
Thanks!
Hello,
You can remove any thumbnail with css. For example on a block 8 you would use this code:
.td_block_8 .td-module-thumb{
display:none
}You can then edit the particular block from the theme files and make it display time instead of date. You will have to edit the particular module the block you want uses. You can see a list of what module each block uses here: http://screencast.com/t/m6RuXVKut
Block 8 uses module 7 so we need to edit module 7 like so:

<?php the_modified_time('G:i'); ?>Thank you!
HOW to change block on demo
” from dont miss to other name ” an how to set category to that block ..
Hello NickSi,
Please check the block setting used to be on default mode and change only the sorting option to be Popular (Jetpack+status module required). As you can see in this screenshot – http://screencast.com/t/414nuIwh5Yk this feature is recommended to use without other settings/pagination
After this advice, if your problem is still there, please send us an email to contact@tagdiv.com with your log-in information so we can further inspect the issue. Also, please copy/paste the link of this topic so we can know who you are and what the issue is.
Hope this helps!

Hello nivosh,
You can set a block to be default post on your site for a certain post style if you are using do_shortcode and implement this code to properly file. You should find more details about do_shortcode in this link:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/
<?php echo do_shortcode('enter visual composer element here');?>
http://screencast.com/t/wYd49RkDhouW
Plese follow the steps from the screenshot below and implement this in your file core like this:
http://screencast.com/t/gL98XHqE9
The result :http://screencast.com/t/XwgE0wocy6j
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Great theme – thank-you.
Is it possible to change the default “comments” and “views” (before the number) icons on the single page?
Is there a list to see what icons I can choose from?
Ideally I would like to add “views” counter to all blocks so that they show on the front page.
thanks in advance.
Hi
Unfortunately this error could come from a big number of problems. It is a general error and we cannot point it to a specific thing. I believe it happens due to your server configuration which is not responding, it could be due to a delay or it could also be a temporary issues so you can try this a few times and if you still get this error please contact your host provider and let him know about this, ask them to unblock our demo in order to retrieve the theme data. It could also happen due to your wp install or other plugins might also cause this so you could also test this on a fresh wp install and let us know if you still get the same result. Also make sure that your permission for the upload folder are set correct. You can check this by trying to upload an image in media library. If the process succeeds then the permission are ok. If not you can use the c-panel to change permissions (set them to 777) or if you do not have access to the cpanel, please contact your hosting provider.
Thanks!
Has been for 2 years for this theme, please look again 🙂
You may need to make all the blocks visible on your page edit page, using the visibility tab [screen options] top right of the page on your edit page.
Hope that helped!
Hi,
just some input … what we do is upload images via FTP we don’t want multi-cloned; like logos, or branding, or “about us” stuff, avatar images, etc.
For posts, one way we cut down on multiple image creation is this
a) upload featured image via post panel; then select as featured image
b) additional images on post, we load via html, from FTP versions, so only ONE file exists.
c) for optimizations, we did the most common tricks
— 1) set the default WP sm/med/lg sizes to the 3 sizes we most commonly use, and set largest size to the larger block image on front page, sometimes larger than our post image (640×480)
— 2) turn “off” image sizes we are not using from theme panel, limit sizes used on sidebar to same module sizes used for smaller home page sections
— set all category, archive, 404, author, search templates to use same size images
d) normal WP image compression optimizations, as in our case we pre-optimize uploaded files, and we set the default compression for ImageMagick/GDlib used by WP to 55 or 60 vs default 90.
This helped control the sizes.
On one old site, where images had not been compressed well, and/or could not all be “regenerated” we downloaded the image folder via FTP, then applied a local application to optimize all the images then uploaded the optimized image folder back to server.
Hope some of that helped, or perhaps food for thought 🙂

Hi Bogdan,
By adding the code for displaying author bio in the Authors Box block I guess this will also show up in the sidebar instances of this block and this will make it look too busy.
I’m also looking to add a list of authors, their bio, avatar, number of posts, etc into an “About us” page. I saw in a post almost a year ago (https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/authors-box-doesnt-show-bio/) that this was part of your future release plans but I’m not sure if you’ve managed to do it. Any advice?
Thanks!
Hello tagdiv,
I tried to create a custom post by using the blocks 8 and 7. But in the half width they are not looking good. Instead of single column it is being showed in two columns. I’m attaching a screenshot here for your reference. http://www.screencast.com/users/praderj/folders/Default/media/6a1db120-a1b5-4a52-9c07-f678f20a30be
I use the Visual Composer only for the post content. Sidebar is from the theme. How to fix this issue. In the full width layout it is working properly.
Hello,
I just spent some money with Bluehost to “optimize” my site. It takes longer than it should to load pages and they have pointed a finger at the theme. Here are their comments:
Reduce server response time -> Your server response time is actually very low. The server only took 254ms to respond to the first request in the final scan included in your post service report. What they are actually looking at is the overall load time of the site, which is greater than 2 seconds. This in and of itself is not a major issue. There are many successful sites that can’t load in faster than 5 seconds. As explained in your report there are several design concerns that are preventing the site from loading in 2 to 3 seconds, and are causing the site to spike in load time up to 10 seconds. These include external requests that can take longer than normal to load and javascript requests that the browser can slow down on. Unfortunately the optimization service is not a design service. What this means is we can’t change the basic way that your site looks and feels from our end as part of the service. We try to compensate for these issues in the settings that we configure on the back end of your site, but some issues are going to need to be looked at by the designer/developer of the site.
Any ideas on what I can do to speed up the site loading?
Also, in the PHP memory allocation, I set to 128 megs before we did any of these tests. Still, the “system status” still says the allocation is at 40megs and should be increased. Seems like there’s a problem, here.
I use block 7 which uses small thumbnails. I am satisfied with it. The 7 days post sorting is interesting module but why does it requires the show pageviews on post option enabled? If the pageviews option is active, will google crawl admin-ajax url? I had issues with some plugins that used wordpress ajax. Sometimes the admin-ajax resulted in a lot of soft 404 errors on my site. I hope this will not happen in newspaper theme
Hi,

Hello Catalin
It does display the playlist but not in the way I want. I want the playlist being displayed as in your video playlist block where the video is on the left hand and the video list is on the right hand. Displaying like that will help the customers see the entire video list. Is there anyway to do that ?

Hi,
I have replied you on themeforest’s dashboard on this. I have pasted my replies and our conversation below, hope you don’t mind.
I would use the block 16 as module , it is possible ? And if so, how can I do ?
tagDiv
Hi,
Unfortunately not without customization, as blocks’s template uses additional customizations to display 3/5 posts on 2/3 columns so setting/using that as module woudl display one post on each column resulting in a similar layout like this: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/block-3/
I’ll add this on our request list and consider it for future theme updates.
Thanks for the message!
Lucian C. tagDiv
I would like to customize , you could point me in which I would have to edit files.
tagDiv
Hi,
Sure, you can find the block’s 16 template file to see theme’s implementation for it here: http://screencast.com/t/0GNsavDbKxi then, for category’s modules layout in the loop.php file: http://screencast.com/t/X4kdqTz2Xoc
You would have to create a case in the loop file for your case. Please also note that we cannot provide customization services at the moment so if you can’t manage this on your own we advise you to get in touch with a freelancer or someone that could help you and also make sure you backup these files before customizing them.
Hope this helps!
