Hi,
Do you have only the Big Grid block on your page and you use a page template with latest articles?
A solution is to use the offset feature, for example you have Big Grid set to filter posts from all categories – http://screencast.com/t/1rEcBxdbJf just set the offset option for Latest Articles to 5 so it will display the 6’th post – http://screencast.com/t/jDXSgE8jF
Also you can filter by different categories(or tags) on your blocks – http://screencast.com/t/FRgOuWrCGoR – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/ or you can use unique article feature(it is from old docs but works the same) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles-and-offset-newspaper/ Please not that the unique articles feature was not designed to work with block pagination.
Thanks!
Hi Gwen,
If your featured image is larger that the thumb size, regenerating your thumbnails should fix your issue – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
If the issue persist you can try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css, it will be applied on for homepage slider – http://screencast.com/t/y1HfGqAkm
.home .td-pb-span6 .td_block_slide .td-module-thumb, .home .td-pb-span6 .td_block_slide .td-module-thumb .entry-thumb {
height: 100%;
}
Hope this helps!

Hello,
It takes a bit of custom modification to do it. You can add an extra class on the row in visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/GDM4o7r7OjlN and you can apply styles to that row in CSS.
This is an example on a block 6: http://screencast.com/t/jAT3BC8n4X
You need to target every block you place on your page and set borders to it.
If you cannot manage on your own i suggest you hire a developer to do it for you from sites like studio.envato.com because at the moment we cannot provide any custom work. (We try to help out were we can if it does not involve lots of customization)
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hi
This usually happens when loading the font file (which contains those icons) from another host/url. I have checked your browser’s console and you have an error – http://screencast.com/t/MHUb0hghheW
The solution would be to load them from the same url as the site or try this solution – http://webmasters.stackexchange.com/questions/71630/font-blocked-from-loading-by-cross-origin-resource-sharing-policy-no-access-co
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi,
I see you use the old theme version, but I’m not sure what you want to edit as I see you use Visual Composer pagebuilder to create your page so you can change the blocks settings if you want.
Please provide more details about this, a screenshot may help.
Thanks!
Hi,
@FrozenGod Do you use Wigetised Sidebar block for your homepage, but it doesn’t change it? – http://screencast.com/t/W5xkPKmRjp
Also for post pages, if you use a custom sidebar for category template, the post will inherit that sidebar – http://screencast.com/t/koUf5vkxK
Please check this like Christopher suggested, without any plugins active except of Visual Composer, clear cache and see if you still have this issue.
If the issue persist please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin access so we can take a look, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are and what your issue is.
Thanks!
Hi tajir,
Please edit your page to I guess that you use the Social Counter block directly to your page – http://screencast.com/t/grz88P1VRA2
You can enable social icons also for footer from Theme Panel > Footer section – http://screencast.com/t/qDcqMvWpfu – http://screencast.com/t/FAUjZV0NX
Thanks!
Today, suddenly, when I disable and reenable the Visual Composer plugin for testing, the spaces between the ads have disappeared.
The two ads that appear below the grid leave no space for news block. In the sidebar is the same, the first ad shows space but the rest ads no.

Hi,
You can do this via custom css, for example – http://screencast.com/t/uQlEnbKc – http://screencast.com/t/VghrcvF1wV
.td-footer-template-3 .td_block_7 .entry-title a {
color: #F70C0C;
}
.td-footer-wrapper .block-title a, .td-footer-wrapper .block-title span, .td-footer-wrapper .block-title label {
color: #F70C0C;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
If you want to block the header ad for a specific page you will have to add a condition to not appear there using the page id – http://screencast.com/t/3nYqSyKDPDd Just put there your page id – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_page
if (!is_page('XX'))
Thanks!
Hi,
You could use Tabs element of Visual Composer for your page and add blocks to it – http://screencast.com/t/bSVLfN4al – http://screencast.com/t/ObZb6U4jD
Unfortunately this element is not available in Widgets section to be added also in custom sidebars.
Thanks!
Hi,
You must have post views enabled from Theme Panel > Post Settings – http://screencast.com/t/8OuCAPd2aja then you can test it by editing a post and take a look at custom fields: http://screencast.com/t/mSiJvu61tGj then refresh the post a few times and check if it increments. If those values are changed when the post is viewed then popular sort should work properly and the post should appear to your block.
Please check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer, clear cache and see if you still have this issue. Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hello there,
How can I get a news ticker (trending now?) on every post and page in the top?
[td_block_trending_now], right?
Thanks
Jonas
Hi,
I see that when I click on that link it redirects to your homepage, but I don’t know what post it is. You have this issue only with a specific posts, as I have checked your site and clicked on few articles(standard, video) and did not found any issues. You can check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer, clear cache and see if you still have this issue.
If the issue persist, send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide more details(the link to the specific article so we can find it on your site) wp-admin access so we can take a look, paste a link to this topic so we know who you are and what your issue is.
To add ads to your homepagepage content via VC pagebuilder, you can use Ad Box block and set the ad you want to display – http://screencast.com/t/bIOp24LJrYC
For posts pages you can use the article inline ad spot and set it to appear after x paragraph – http://screencast.com/t/mG0q0d4qq
Thanks!
Dear Creators
I started new blog and installed Newspaper theme.
I started to install one of your predefined themes. I installed them with demo content but the page renders with errors in all of them.
Note: i did not adjust anything, i uploaded demos to the white blank site.
The web page is: http://howtomake.wiki/
Couple of this errors are:
[vc_row parallax_image=””][vc_column width=”1/1″]
[/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row full_width=”” parallax=”” parallax_image=””][vc_column width=”2/3″]
[/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][td_block_social_counter custom_title=”STAY CONNECTED” facebook=”envato” twitter=”envato” youtube=”tagDiv” open_in_new_window=”y”]
TagdiV back on Monday.
On our site we actually turned off Visual Composer and using the beta ‘shim’ for homepage, and added function in functions.php to disable loading visual composer on post pages.
VC is a memory hog. On our server we were getting spikes going from .70 to 70 (!) — with quad Xeons 32GB RAM and gigabit switch.
You can also try some simple optimizations:
a) turn off the “related” posts “more by author” bottom of post pages (I am using separate smaller footprint text based related posts plugin where I can set length of time to query vs “everything forever”)
b) limit number of queries on home page – try to have no more than 10 blocks
c) try not using megamenu
d) try not using the flyout “you might like …”
e) on sidebars try using only one module type; try using module with text only vs thumbs.
All those things cut waaaaaaay back on queries.

I am using some blocks in homepage.. I need that with Borders like showing in this website..(techmymoney.com)
Thanks for your Reply
Hello,
I’ve tried everything I could but this just doesn’t work on my side.
I’m trying to have different sidebars on the Homepage and the Single Post view but they’re both using ht esame template options in the Theme Panel.
I’ve also tried to change the sidebar option on my Home page (I’m using a custom home with Visual Composer).
Still it always uses the same Default Widget for all the site areas, so I think after 20+ hours of headache It’s time now to ask for help.
P.S: I think I also found a bug with the “News Ticker Title” – was trying to change the font size for the Ticker Title here:
Blocks/Widgets Title
News Ticker
News Ticker title
So eventually I had to Firebug and write my own custom CSS for it.
I’m really dissapointed that things are not going smooth at all with this theme, seems like lots of things are bugged or at least “Not so easy to edit”.
Thanks.
hello
I’m using this feature with a block 7 widget.
The fact is that I’m sure those posted cannot be the most viewed ones, how can I make it work? Is there a way to reset / update the counters?
Regards
Fabio
Hello,
is there a way to change font color of the block modules (headline and/or excerpt) in the Footer?
I am using footer template 3 and block 7 in the footer.

Hi when adding one of the demos I get an ajax error. This is described a few times on this forum. So I deactivated most plugins and contacted the host and this is what the host sais:
Hello,
Thank you for the provided information.
It came to my attention that the script is trying to establish a connection to a remote host which is getting blocked and is causing the issue.
Your hosting account has an outgoing connections manager which as a security measure is by default blocking the connections made from your domains to external hosts. The blocked and allowed connections can be managed from Advanced -> Outgoing Connections menu.
In this case to resolve the issue you will need to manually allow the specific outgoing connection that the script is trying to establish in Advanced -> Outgoing Connections menu. For more accurate information which is the host and IP address that need to be allowed please contact the script vendors.
If there is anything else we can do for you please contact us.
Best Regards,
not sure what outgoing connection I need to ok? which Ip?
can you help me out?
Hi
By default the theme doesn’t display the top bar on mobile devices but you can use this custom css in theme panel > custom css to display it: http://screencast.com/t/edqs9T92
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td-header-top-menu {
display: block!important;
padding: 7px;
}
Note that you may need some additional css customization to the layout, as the top bar wasn’t designed to be displayed on mobile devices.
Thanks!
Hi
We didn’t test the plugin you indicted with the theme, so I am not aware of its functionality. Try to add the shortcode generated by the plugin in one of the theme ads spots: http://screencast.com/t/Xv9CVXIit0L then add an ad box block with the corresponding ad spot on the page: http://screencast.com/t/Qi5niDEeo in VC page builder. You can find more details about how shortcodes are rendered in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ads-system-full-guide/
If that fails you can try by inserting the shortcode into a text block from VC and see how it works: http://screencast.com/t/LGVa3YRtOW
Thanks!
