We are working with a ad network (yyy) that allows to show google adsense (custom_ad_5) if they have no ads for us (xxx) to show. I tried to ad this code to our loop-single.php
<div id="ad-container"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
function cvNoAdsCallback_xxx() {
document.getElementById('ad-container').innerHTML =
do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_5"]');
}
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://yyy/xxx/ad-container"></script>
Ok, to be honest, “do_shortcode” (bold row) is not a working command here, but I’m struggling a bit. Has anyone an idea? Thanks, loano
Hi there,
currently we are having an issues with this setting. In general it works fine BUT:
If a review is set for a post, the post appears in the blog which is configured to show the highest rated. But if you remove the review the specific post won’t disappear within this block. It is still there but not showing any stars (well this works as intended).
We also tried not to only set the review setting to “no” but also delete every single “feature name” and the description. Looking into the db entry for that post, all information about the “review” seem to be removed correctly. Anyhow, the post – as already said – still appears in every block using this filter method.
Are there any additional tables which are holding these review information or how could we solve this issue?
By the way, adding the review information automatically by writing them into the database works fine and all information about the review are correctly shown on the post itself. In a Block using the filter method highes rated these post first show up after saving the post through the backend without making any changes. This behavior also makes me belief that additional review information are stored somewhere else in the database?!
Ah, before you ask, there is no caching plugin oder CDN aktive.
Thanks in advance and sorry for my english…
Best regards.
Hi,
Sorry I did not see your site! If you still have issues with the Big Slider please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin access so we can take a closer look, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are and what your issue is.
Unfortunately the Jetpack sort order was not designed for blocks with pagination or sliders. This is a new feature of the theme and for the moment we don’t have documentation for it. we will try to improve our documentation also regarding this and if we don’t find a fix for this sort option we will specify in the documentations that it doesn’t work on this kind of blocks.
Sorry again for this and like I said if you still have issues with Big Slider(using another sort order) we will take look if you will send the email.
Thanks!
Hi,
The theme was designed to support the woocommerce plugin,as we created some woocommerce templates to help our users and also we customize it a little using css code, but we did not alter the code for woocommerce elements. Also the tagdiv blocks were not designed for woocommerce products, they works with default posts types and you will need custom modifications for this and it is not an easy task, sorry!
You can try this solution and use custom field for posts(not products) and you will be able to display the price on modules/blocks – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/block-modificationsadditions-custom-field/
Doing this change requires some php/html/css experience, so I suggest to get someone to help you with this.
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and noticed that you have an offset set on your STRIPBOEKEN block which means that the first post from that category will be excluded: http://screencast.com/t/oX7KMQDZg so try remove that offset: http://screencast.com/t/chmQCKfYi9S2 clear all caches and test again.
Thanks!

http://www.screencast.com/t/Hb7NxIh78zL How can i add this 3 block are shown on image?
Hi SamuelWright,
My advise is try to put it with !important, like below:
.td-post-content blockquote p {
font-family: 'Roboto',sans-serif;
font-size: 32px!important;
line-height: 40px!important;
font-weight: 400!important;
font-style: italic!important;
text-align: center!important;
text-transform: uppercase!important;
color: #4db2ec;
}
}
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hi,
Please do not use the Jetpack sort order on sliders and/or blocks with pagination as it will not work fine. Try to change the sort order and if you still have issues please provide a link so we can take a look.
Thanks!
Hi,
You have an option to set primary category for each of your posts, if you have multiple actegories – http://screencast.com/t/yUqDh7m2pffT If you don’t set the primary category, it will display on modules the first category in alphabetical order.
The color of the category on modules/blocks can be changed using custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/VOkPxAWbnJe
.td_module_wrap .td-post-category {
background-color: #BB391B;
}
It will not take the color that you set in Theme Panel for each category, this will be applied only for post pages – http://screencast.com/t/NTdZL30M7bRS If you need this you need custom modifications to change the get_category function used on modules – http://screencast.com/t/jPN396cW3 like Bogdan suggested above take at reference the function used for categories on post pages – http://screencast.com/t/gct7mUgA6HFy
I suggest to get someone to help you, as the time doesn’t allow us to provide custom work, sorry!
Thanks!
Hello Beldar,
There is an option for it in Visual Composer->Block Settings like this: http://screencast.com/t/rxnhVqyLm .
Thanks!
Hi luckydog01420,
I understand your problem and for do this changes it is necessary to modify the correct template. For to add in the category pages the ad block, you must put your ad shortcode as like in the screenshot: http://screencast.com/t/j1XAeLSwuy and for individual post pages, here: http://screencast.com/t/yt5vvNDCs – for post pages you must change core files of template used. (single_template_1.php or single_template_2.php… etc).
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks!

.td_block_16 .td_module_mx4 .entry-thumb{

Hello, I would like that the name of the block, which are the categories, was a link to that category. It’s posible?
I mean these names:

Thank you
Trank you for your reply.
But the code I mentioned I just out this last hours.
Without this code the element in the sidebar.m, in my case the ad, I just showing up the half of it. Like 100px width.
So I put this css code to see the ad in mobile.
As I said, the problem isn’t at the homepage.
In homepage site everything seems fine.
But on post pages the sidebar element breaks to the bottom.
And then on mobile screen u can see only the half of the element. Because I think there is something which is blocking.
Thx.

Hey,
is it possible to change the thumbnail size of block 16 in a square dimension?
If yes how can I do it?
I want on this site http://www.awayfromlife.com/label/ under the point “Unsere Releases” the thumbnails in a square dimension.
Thank you for helping and best wishes, Simon
Hello,
I have checked your website and saw that you still did not install the plugins required by the theme especially visual composer. You get errors such as this: http://screencast.com/t/tH6uPH3B
You need visual composer to edit the block elements titles and the ajax filter (the category menus of the blocks)
These can be changed from block settings. https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
As for the ads, you need to place the adsense code directly in the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/hac0UlidHC3F
If you jost created your adsense account and got your code, keep in mind that it takes a bit of time for the ads to appear. Sometimes it can take up to 48 hours.

Thank you!
Hi SamuelWright,
Below you can find the full code by default for the block quote in posts. You can change/adjust this values as you like and then you have to put it in Theme panel->Custom Css area with new changes, like this:
http://screencast.com/t/iUPGyiLNX
.td-post-content blockquote p {
font-family: 'Roboto',sans-serif;
font-size: 32px;
line-height: 40px;
font-weight: 400;
font-style: italic;
text-align: center;
text-transform: uppercase;
color: #4db2ec;
}
}
Hope this helps and then let us know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hi,
Our theme does not have an option to place a like button on it’s blocks and modules or on top the post featured image. You can try to use plugins to do this but we cannot recommend one because we have not tested them.
You can follow this tutorial to try and implement it : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/like-button#configurator
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hi
If posts 5,4,3,2,1 are in categories A,B,C and categories B,C are excluded from being displayed in block, those posts wont be displayed because they belongs to excluded categories.
A solution would be to add for each post which want to display in block a specific tag, leave the categories filter empty and filter posts by that specific tag. Like that only posts with that tag will be displayed in block: http://screencast.com/t/shN6rwKyu
If you need a different implementation for block’s filters you will need customizations in theme files and unfortunately we can’t offer customization services at the moment. If you’re not aware of the steps you need to take in this regard please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ to do this for you.
Thanks!
Hi argos,
It is possible this thing if you use the Ajax Filter from Block Settings in Visual Composer. First of all it is necessary to search the category ID ( http://screencast.com/t/8MsIhG8lQNWN ) you want to appear in the top bar and put it in Ajax dropdown field, separated by comas, like this: http://screencast.com/t/4hjjg2WjlYI
The result should see here: http://screencast.com/t/v1F0P08Ev
Thanks and let us know how it goes!
Hello, I am having trouble figuring out how to get my ad codes placed on my blog. First of all, for reference purposes, here is my blog http://www.viralbuzzme.com
I have a static home page, and then the rest of my menu is set up as category pages, then individual post pages. Here is what I am trying to accomplish.
I am trying to paste my ad block code so that my ad block appears right below my blue menu bar. I am using a plug in called ad inserter, and I cannot fully figure out how it works. I managed to get the ad block to show on my home page at the top, but I cannot figure out how to make the same ad block appear in the same place at the top on all my category pages, and individual post pages. Any tips on how to do this without using that plug in, and pasting my code directly somewhere and get it to show up at the top everywhere?
Regards,
Steve
Hi, where or HOW can I customize the CATEGORIES I want to display above the news in EACH block of information I display at homepage?
For example:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Byh_UO1_O5MReHZYN3hVU3ZlZjQ/view?usp=sharing
Actually, all my blocks of information display the SAME categories… and I need to SELECT some catories to each block (not for the content inside the block but the TOP ITEMS like links-menus on it… see link)
Hello,
I’m serving my ads through DFP and I followed the instructions on how to setup other ads because I plan on having the ads served locations not set by the theme.
Only issue is I need to call the shortcode in the loop-single.php template file which I did like this:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_4"]');?>
I know it works for image ads because I have another custom spot with the ad being displayed but it doesn’t seem to work for non-adsense scripts. Below is the script I put in the custom ad settings of the theme panel.
<div id='single-bottom-custom-flex' class="td-pb-padding-side td-pb-border-top aligncenter">
<script type='text/javascript'>googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('single-bottom-custom-flex'); }); </script>
</div>
I can see the script in the source code yet the publisher console doesn’t recognize the unit. Hard coding the unit works but I need it to be done via theme panel’s custom ad. What’s preventing the custom ad from displaying the unit?
