Newspaper Team,
Amazing theme. Really glad to have used it thus far. So many great features, kudos to the team 🙂
I am running into an problems using the Ajax Filter on the Block.
I have categorized my posts as follows:
Type (Parent)
–Popular
–Spotlight
–Mainstream
–Team
Location (Parent)
–NorCal
–NY Metro
–SoCal
Each block on my home page is filtered by each Type above (Popular, Spotlight, Mainstream, Team) and then I set the AJAX filter to sort by Location.
However, once I filter by location using the AJAX filter, it shows me ALL posts within that location. How can I fix the filter or location categories in order to ensure the ajax filter works appropriately? I want the Type filter to stay on for the block, while filtering by Location using the ajax to bring up the appropriate posts.
Thanks,
Ajay

Hi, I tried but it didn´t help.
As I already wrote, the issue showed after I changed homepage on bottom and I added there 2 carousel image blocks. All photos which are under theese 2 blocks have missing photos. When I scroll up from bottom of page, photos will show. Till then, everything was Ok. I didn´t install new plugins.
Hi
The differences appear when using the block on a 1 column layout or on a 2 column layout, you can see this here: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/block-16/
Please provide a link to your site so we can inspect this issue and more details if this is not what you mean.
I’ve tested the post style 8 and work’s fine on mobile: http://screencast.com/t/kWrxe1fIV please provide a link so i can inspect this issue closer.
Thanks!
Hi
Check this link http://screencast.com/t/dovclWUswO to include all blocks in Visual Composer.
Let me know how it goes!
Hi,
Please provide more details about this issue, did you received any error while using typekit?
We placed it at the end to avoid render blocking. You can find the code here – http://screencast.com/t/TR1n9aixepCq , try to change the hook on which it loads, try wp_head – https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/wp_head
Thank you!
Hi,
Please make sure that you have featured image enabled on post pages – http://screencast.com/t/NaUwG64G and also the thumbs on modules/blocks that you use – http://screencast.com/t/kUKgsCb6Mn and then regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
Also provide your site url if still have this issue so we can take a look.
Thanks!
Hi,
Not sure what you mean please provide more details. Do you refer to the block title? You can easily edit the page and change the block title from the settings – http://screencast.com/t/wtkykPSMEk2X
Thanks!
Hi,
I guess that Christopher referred that you need to redo some settings when you update the theme. Some on modules/blocks or widgests don’t exist anymore for example search module – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/search-not-displaying-results/ Also you will have to re-add the widgets to your sidebars, as they will become inactive.
The import script does the following operations:
- Imports the old settings to the new theme
- Renames all the shortcodes from your pages to the new names
- Imports all the sidebars
- Renames all the widgets from the sidebars to the new names
Regarding WordPress update, it should not affect your settings, but it is recommended to backup your site – https://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress
Thanks!

Hi,
Please check these topics it may help – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/view-numbers-in-block/ If you don’t know how to do it I suggest to get someone to help you with this as unfortunately we cannot provide custom work at this time, sorry! We can only make some suggestions, examples(like you can see on that topic).
Thanks!
Hi,
For pages if you use the default template, the sidebar will not be displayed automatically, you will have to use Widgetised Sidebar block and set the sidebar that you want to display – http://screencast.com/t/d7GcirmcZ
For post pages please note that you can set a general sidebar from Theme Panel > Template Settings – http://screencast.com/t/Q6oRBR7VZ This general setting will be overwritten if you use a custom sidebar for categories – http://screencast.com/t/HWcKhV4wUi means that all articles from this specific category will have the category sidebar. Also if you set a custom sidebar for a specific post will overwrite all panel settings – http://screencast.com/t/wRlYzW8z
Maybe the plugin can be used only from Widgets section. In this case you can create a custom sidebar, add the widget into it from Appearance > Widgets and use Widgetised Sidebar block to display it in a page content.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
If you use multiple category filter, you can display only articles from specific categories. If you use 97,98,96 only articles from these categories will be displayed or if you use -23,- 66 all articles from those categories will be excluded on the block.
Thanks!
Hi,
You can add a featured image on page like this – http://screencast.com/t/RqeVJSR3EkxV but please note that the view counter was designed on post pages, so it will not work on page template. Also the post views will not be displayed on modules/blocks, if this is what you mean, you will need custom work to display it also there. Please check this topic to see an example how to display post views on blocks/modules – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/view-numbers-in-block/
Thanks!

Hi,
There’s no ideal image size, the modules have thumbs with different aspect ratios and a part of the image may get lost on the cropping process. You could read more about the featured image size here (it’s from Newsmag documentation but the principles are the same) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/image-size/ You have to do some tests and see what aspect ratio to use, depending what blocks/modules you use most.
Also if you want to change the crop mode or add a different thumb size, you need to alter the code – http://screencast.com/t/7nlYBLgcfb also the thumb is used in the modules – http://screencast.com/t/U34sGuJ2gfX If you make any changes you will have to regenerate thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
Thanks!
Okay, so I’m not sure what happen between July 25th and now, but the new theme version is just not running and customizing like it should. Loads of bugs!
Here are a few things I need help with
1) BLOCKQUOTES. I have 6,000+ posts that use the NORMAL < blockquote> TEXT </ blockquote> tags. There is nowhere to customize these. How can I do this? It is ridiculous for me to have to go through every single post and change it to “blockquote center box” whatever. There has to be a way to alter these blockquotes.
2) BLOCKQUOTE COLOR – WHY is the color the same as the accent? How to I change that?
3) New Ticker Hover – How do I remove the Hover from the news ticker? I want to make it a color different than the theme accent, and for some reason it has a hover color. I don’t like it how do I remove it?
4) HYPERLINKS – Can I please know how to change the hyperlinks ONLY for page/post links? Anything I do seems to change hyperlinks site-wide.
5) H2 HYPERLINKS – For some reason any H2 text that is hyperlinked stays black. It will not change color to the “hyperlink” color.
6) LOAD – Is there a way to stop the site from fully refreshing every time a page/post is loaded? For some reason this version doesnt load as smoothly. I want it to refresh like this does: http://www.gameplanet.com.au/ You don’t even notice the refresh! The last version 6.2 did not have this issue, and now it does.
Hello,
After having updated to the latest version of newspaper, I realize that the number of views is not shown anymore on my home page blocks (http://www.duperrin.com).
Is it possible to get it back ? Did I miss any setting ?
Thanks for your help
Hi,
12. Every Big Grid block has a default padding bottom, you can change this if you want via custom css – http://screencast.com/t/zc1Ozy9TKtt
13. You can find the header files in the root of the theme – http://screencast.com/t/ji7fPHijn and also in theme’s functions you can find the favicon code – http://screencast.com/t/rk9t181Fpw
Thanks!
Thanks, it helped. However ..the issue showed after I added custom block to bottom of the homepage demo….Till this, everything was ok.
Hi,
There is no option to stop the sticky sidebar in the specific spot. This depends on how many widgets do you use in the sidebar. On scroll down it will become sticky at the last element from sidebar and on scroll up when it reaches to the first element. A solution it would be to use less widgets in the sidebar so your ad will be visible all the time on scroll up/down. If you use tagdiv blocks there you can also limit the posts there so you can display less articles in a block instead of default value(5) – http://screencast.com/t/0Y0hUCBk
Thanks!
Hi,
If you refer to the pagination arrows for page template with latest articles(or any loop pages- category page..) unfortunately this cannot be targeted to change the background(only if you change the bg for all links – http://screencast.com/t/7q9u1HAdNw42 ), bu you can change the color for arrows – http://screencast.com/t/6iCsMt7L6
.page-nav .td-icon-menu-left, .page-nav .td-icon-menu-right {
color: red;
}
If you are referring to the block next/prev pagination you can change the background color via custom css – http://screencast.com/t/xmglzKPAAGt
.td-next-prev-wrap .td-ajax-next-page, .td-next-prev-wrap .td-ajax-prev-page {
background-color: red;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that you ran the script also this block (Text with title) should be updated, the shortcode should be renamed to – http://screencast.com/t/uFryRqk89 You can also check if the shortcode was changed for other block for example block 1:
old shortcode name version 4 – http://screencast.com/t/0PjvwbqAvvt
new shortcode name version 6 – http://screencast.com/t/TBUdUB5yuZ4
If you still have issues with it please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-access so we can take a look, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are and what the issue is.
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
First, thank you very much for your concern. I really appreciate it.
I have found what is the problem: in my organization the access to facebook is forbidden, so instead of the Facebook icon I see a frame saying that the access is blocked. But in this case the frame is too big for such a small space, so I only see a scrollbar, without any indication of what could really be behind it.
When I use my computer out of my organization, I have no issues.
Thank you again for checking the problem!!

is it possible to exclude certain tags on category blocks?
i wanna feature a certain tag in a separate block, and to avoid duplication would want posts with this tag not to appear in a block for a certain category.
is this possible? thanks.
