Hi,
I don’t see a logo in your site and I’m using desktop. The theme seems to be printing the image URL “http://www.planestrainsautomobiles.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/PTA-logo-web-2.png” but server says that image is not there. Try to reset the image/logo at the theme panel.
About security, it’s a big topic.
Wordpress sites get targeted a lot, I would be very surprised if it was theme related. There’s many things you can do to help fight those bots and scripts, just a few I recall:
– admin user account should not be “admin”. bots try that account 1st thing and if they see the account is active, they’ll brute force try to guess the password. admin account should not be the name of the website, they try that 2nd.
– require captcha to login (but this hurts real users experience IMO)
– use a plugin to limit login attempts
I use a combination of wordfence plugin + cloudflare CDN.
Wordfence is neat, I don’t use premium edition, free one does a lot already, including some of the work a limit login attempts plugin would do. Supposedly, websites with wordfence communicate with wordfence services and if they spot an IP sweeping websites trying to login, they spread the word and it gets blocked. cloudflare helps cause they divert IPs with bad reputation and you can set it to high security (good in case of a big attack), which checks browser integrity, javascript execution and sometimes ask human interaction almost like captcha. They allow page rules so I keep the whole site with standard security but the wp-login page gets max.
Even with all of this, I still get targeted anyways. I know cause I have a rule to block IP for 30min if it tries to log in with “admin” and it triggers from time to time. Sometimes it comes in waves, specially after a big WP update cause bots go crazy over exploits discovered and they start scanning sites that didn’t update already. Just my 2 cents/experience, hope it helps, cheers!
I just realized something. when I put this code for playlist:
[td_block_video_youtube playlist_title="" playlist_yt="wwww" playlist_auto_play="0"]
when I put youtube code the messes up the page, but when I user regualr text or numbers the play loads fine.
The images when using any of the big grids are showing a grey block or bar at the bottom of some of the images depending on which big grid I’m using. For example you can see the issue here with both Big Grid 1 and Big Grid 8 – http://gyazo.com/b203222ccb6355c4fa88cdd239d4badc

Hi Radu A,

Please show me steps to do that.
Thanks,

Hello,
The smart side bar have a strange behavior. when I scroll up from the bottom of the page, block contents overlap with the advertising block because the ad scrolls down while the rest of the side bar scrolls up. It takes a while before the ad catch up and comes back at the top of the side bar.
This problem is even more noticeable on posts.
Could you please let me know what cause this problem and how I could get the same behavior that you display on your demo template ?

Actually if you have a title field in your widget, it automatically appends its value to the widget block title. So to test this I changed the parameter name from ‘custom_title’ to ‘title’ in get_map_block_array() (td_config.php) and the titles showed in the backend.

The JS used in wp-admin – widjets.js
var title = $('input[id*="-title"]', widget).val() || '';
if ( title ) {
title = ': ' + title.replace(/<[^<>]+>/g, '').replace(/</g, '<').replace(/>/g, '>');
}
$(widget).children('.widget-top').children('.widget-title').children()
.children('.in-widget-title').html(title);
Hi,
About the pagination next/prev arrows under the Blocks, I’m able to navigate when I’m logged in WordPress Admin panel but when I’m not logged in the Wp admin, a window appears asking my WP admin dashboard password, so it means regular visitors cannot navigate through the blocks, How can I fix this?

Hello
Our site is still in test.
We are working on PC and Android
A friend just test the site on his latest Mac OS version on Firefox and Safari and iPad iOS and on click on the loop for searching, the block under with the field don’t show.
A test on a old Mac OS on Safari and Chrome and noticed that the font on the menu is not the good one.
Hi,
love the theme so far.
Still setting up my site though.
I do have a question about the blocks in visual builder:
I want to show a full row image with no exzerpt. I know there is the first post of Block 18 but I really want the white box under the text like in Block 13. Block 13 though shows the beginning of the article text which I do not want to show at all.
Is there any solution for this?
I am using “slide” block on homepage. I got feedback from users that It would be better to have numbering or navigation below the slider
I guess this is not possible to achieve in the current slider?
Hi Bryson T
The issue is not the CSS of the block,please remove the modification you have done to fix it. The issue is about the order of the theme style.css vs js_composer.css and VC that overwrite the grid padding. http://screencast.com/t/RQvAuITOEaN
Please update the Child theme from the latest theme version.
Hi,
@lospicos Unfortunately this is how Big Grids were designed and you will need custom work to change how they are displayed on mobile. You can try this custom css for Big Grid 2, but if you need more customizations I suggest to get a professional to do this for you as we cannot provide custom work for the moment, sorry! This css code is a good start to look like you want – http://screencast.com/t/itZMkH9TDKM
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-wrapper .td-big-grid-scroll {
white-space: normal !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-wrapper .td-big-grid-scroll .td-big-grid-post-1 {
width: 100% !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-wrapper .td-big-grid-scroll .td-big-grid-post-2, .td-big-grid-scroll .td-big-grid-post-3 {
width: 49% !important;
margin-left: 0 !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-small-thumb .entry-thumb {
width: 120% !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-post-1 {
margin-bottom: 3px !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-post-2 {
margin-right: 3px !important;
}
.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-grid-post.td-small-thumb .td-big-grid-meta .entry-title {
font-size: 14px;
}
}
Thanks!

Hello,
I would like to add some share buttons (or a universal share button) to the posts contained in the post blocks of the main page. Im using the “Share Buttons by AddToAny” plugin but im only getting the buttons inside the post page, not on the main one, so users cannot share posts without clicking on the post first. Ive used this plugin with other themes and it worked, so I was wondering what could I do to make it work on the Newspaper theme, or if you know of other plugin that works with your theme.
Thanks!
sorry block 3
Hi,
i need to use put 3 post on the same line
i can’t do the upgrade form version 4 to version 6 for use big grid, because i’ve made a child that not not compatible the version 6 (There are too many changes in Version 6).
it’s possibile change the block 7 by placing three posts on the same line ?
how can i do?
thank’s

1. I am very keen to update your latest version theme to replace existing 4.6.3 version. Your old version child theme customization supports https://forum.tagdiv.com/child-theme-documentation/ hierarchy. How long does it takes to apply for newspaper 6.3 version?
You can remove the default google fonts from the config file here: http://screencast.com/t/wmxKL4rF which can’t be edited using the child theme. Sorry!
Then give an option to disable google fonts via theme options panel. That does make sense. Every time when i update the theme i have do replace the file manually which is very painful.
Hi,
Please check documentation(Requirements for Newspaper) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ and this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/pagespeed-guide/ We recommend now Wp-Super Cache instead of W3 Total Cache, it seems to be faster and we will change this also in the documentation.
Also try to use only plugins that you need. The speed booster move the js and css at the bottom of the page to eliminate render-blocking, but not for all plugins.
Thanks!
I’d like to show the author name for block 1. The first post on block 1 is showing, but the rest is not.
Hi,
Do you want to hide something on block 1 from sidebar on homepage? Please provide more details as I don’t know what you are trying to do.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately unique articles feature cannot be used on category page, a solution create a custom sidebar for each category and control this from block/widget settings. I have also add this on our list we will try to find a solution in a future update
Thanks for suggestion!
Hi,
Please edit the page where that block is added and go to the block settings to change the title – http://screencast.com/t/NDy1hUXGIy
You can check also theme’s documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Thanks!
What I am really looking for is a way to change the category big grid drop down filter to filter by tag instead of the current latest, featured… etc.
Can I replace the code in td_category_template.php with the code you use in blocks to filter by tag? If so, were can I find it.
Thank you
and prints on page as so:
<div class="td-header-container">
<div class="td-header-row td-header-header">
<div class="td-header-sp-ads">
<div class="td-header-ad-wrap td-ad-m td-ad-tp">
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script><div class="td-g-rec td-g-rec-id-header">
<script type="text/javascript">var td_screen_width=document.body.clientWidth;if(td_screen_width>=1024){document.write('<ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:970px;height:90px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-xxxxxxxxxxxxx" data-ad-slot="xxxxxxxxxxxxx"></ins>');(adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle||[]).push({});}
if(td_screen_width>=768&&td_screen_width<1024){document.write('<ins class="adsbygoogle" style="display:inline-block;width:468px;height:60px" data-ad-client="ca-pub-6556273450138383" data-ad-slot="4322696829"></ins>');(adsbygoogle=window.adsbygoogle||[]).push({});}</script>
</div>
</div> </div>
</div>
Hm.
okay, in my header ad box I have
desktop on (grey toggle); size 970×90
tablet portrait on (grey toggle); size auto
phone off (blue toggle > right)
my code looks the same –
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- 2015 Responsive States -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
style="display:block"
data-ad-client="ca-pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
data-ad-slot="XXXXXXXXXXXXX"
data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
So, it might be something funky like a minification setting or a “java optimization” setting in your Cloudflare, WPEngine — maybe there is a setting there to “ignore” a specific block of code?
I would probably turn OFF one or both of those if you are able to see if maybe they are “re-writing” the javascript for some oddball reason. “Re-writing” — such as scripts that minify, move, re-write javascript can sometimes break the simplest thing if they can’t parse “the syntax” or the “locale” of the code for some odd reason. I ran into this with mod_pagespeed with javascript optimizations — just turned it all off !

@ Chris S
Always a pleasure to see your comments. Thank you for being an active part of this community.
Here is the adsense code. Funny thing, when I place this code into AdRotate, the preview shows the ad just fine, and it is a different ad each time (which it should be) and it is responsive (which it should be).
But I can’t get the theme to show it at all. 🙁
<script async src="//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>
<!-- RSM Responsive Header Ad both -->
<ins class="adsbygoogle"
style="display:block"
data-ad-client="ca-pub-7058286483145389"
data-ad-slot="9979587344"
data-ad-format="auto"></ins>
<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
