Hello

I love the theme and run it on a low traffic site – I also have a very high traffic (50k uniques/mo) UK site which I’d love to move to Newspaper 6 – can anyone recommend the best and safest way to do this?

One issue I think is that I don’t use tags on my current site, and only two categories – would I need to re-tag or re-catgeorise my posts in order to get them into the various ‘blocks’ etc on Newspaper.

I have 900+ posts and 170 pages – which I can cull by 30% or so prior to a move but just how much work will it take? Obviously I can’t use demo site data as I did when I started my low traffic site from scratch.

Any tips would be great because I’d love it to be on Newspaper 6

best regards

Pat

Hi,

Please remove that header for category page from Theme Panel > Categories – http://screencast.com/t/TiUVmJQHrtq and use do_shorcode function to place the news ticked above the big grid – http://screencast.com/t/iEJrDnBgSsjM

<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_trending_now limit="5"]');?>

Hi.
I’m using Newspaper 6.1.
I’ve installed the theme on my website and want to use the Homepage – Newspaper look.
I’ve gone to Homepage and added the Homepage -Newspaper template.
However when I look at my homepage it is not displaying correctly. The Big Grid Slide is not there nor are all the elements of the theme such as the blocks. It just displays a list of posts and the default sidebar boxes.

However when I install the demo and select the Homepage – Newspaper template, it looks perfect. I have tried to emulate all the settings but it doesn’t work. I’m wondering If I have not applied the theme properly to the Homepage but it looks okay to me.When I try and install the demo without the content it doesn’t work. And there seems to be no signs that there is anything different.

Why is the template not being applied properly to my homepage?
If I install the demo with the sample content, how do I make the Newspaper theme the default for my homepage and remove the other pages so it is safe to use?

Thank you

Hello!

On Post Settings, I have enabled Author, Date and Excerpt, although that doesn’t control all the blocks because some were not designed to have the author, like you said 🙂 It might be better to put individual settings on Visual Composer for each Block Module for easier editing. Just a suggestion 🙂

Just having problems with Block 17. Module 4 and module 8 doesn’t have the comment out code, http://imgur.com/nww2Fx4.

Thank you!

@Alin – Thank you. Right now I use Blockquotes in almost every article. I don’t really use the other kinds so that is fine with me. Thanks for the help.

Hi

That is an icon which appears when you set a post to video format and unfortunately you can’t set it to play on modules or blocks. Sorry!

Thanks for the message!

Hi,

Please check all modules – http://screencast.com/t/5BzWIWiAXOm maybe the author is commented there as it should appear also on block 17(use module 4 and 8) – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-17/
On block 15 is used module mx4 and the author is not displayed there as it was not designed to display it – http://screencast.com/t/QSphMSyw You can use another block instead of block 15 or you have to customize it to display author – http://screencast.com/t/bHxGiq9jyPhttp://screencast.com/t/6yXQUPel
Result: http://screencast.com/t/ZPhxPWGOYuL

The option from Post Settings to enable/disable author, date are also applied on blocks/modules – http://screencast.com/t/JhqxRVcw Also some modules display excerpt and some them don’t have it please check our demo – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-3/
There is an option for excerpt length for each module – http://screencast.com/t/TVG8Lcz3HK

Thanks!

Hi Alin,

It’s not a text block.

It’s a “text with title” block and there’s no option for an extra class.

The spacing I’d like to see is similar to what’s found here on the demo site page – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_tech/shop/

Hi,

1. I thing you can achieve the result you want by using one of the grid layout we now have and use custom css to hide the additional informations from the post image so you just need to add the grid you want then use the filter section to chose the posts you want to display in it: http://screencast.com/t/lJXzuJfpwheE then use a css like this to hide additional information from the images leaving just the titles which will look like this: http://screencast.com/t/OA8dItmyN

If this is what you want you can sue the css code below to hide the additional descriptions from the grid:

.td_block_big_grid_8 .td-big-grid-post .td-post-category, .td_block_big_grid_8 .td-big-grid-post .td-module-meta-info {
display: none;
}

.td_block_big_grid_8 .td-big-thumb .td-big-grid-meta {
margin: 0 0 40px 20px !important;
}

You can do it for grid 7 the same way and change the css classes from 8 to 7: http://screencast.com/t/nBpzWSy3MhE

2. If you refer to these social icons: http://screencast.com/t/Zy2WXthZS those icons can’t be added anywhere else other than the top menu.

Thanks

Hi,

Not sure why you have this issue, the logo image should appear also on mobile devices. Do you have any custom css? Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/HCTrAhTWKPM

@media (max-width: 767px){
.header-logo-wrap img {
display: block !important;
}
.span12.header-logo-wrap {
display: block !important;
}
}

Thanks!

Please add an extra class to your text blockhttp://screencast.com/t/Me5TQvLc0 and add this custom css in Theme Panel to reduce margin bottom for your text blockhttp://screencast.com/t/MttminpQOn

.test {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}

Thanks!

Is it possible to add the trending now function so that it sits below the main nav across our entire site?

Thanks.. It works. Can you give me a hint on how to get it working on blocks as well?

Hi,

Please add also text align to the above code like this – http://screencast.com/t/UwScMf9b6Io

text-align: left;

I did not tell you, but I guess that you know that using this code it will affect all other qoute formats so on your future articles you will have to use blockquote to have this effect – http://screencast.com/t/J70xQJKYglFr as using other quotes formats – http://screencast.com/t/8wz2Ty8ekA1 will be affected by this css – http://screencast.com/t/oAS2C9lcT

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately the social icons block/widget is not available in version 6 of the theme, so you will have to remove it also from that page as it doesn’t exist anymore, sorry! The socials are available only for top menu and footer so you can activate theme from Theme Panel – http://screencast.com/t/hBhE3x5xwpHhttp://screencast.com/t/lUvURQQL1 and add your links here – http://screencast.com/t/LoczUtYTHiX

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately the related articles are not part of the post content so you cannot display it in the post content without custom modifications. I suggest to hire someone to do this for you as we cannot provide any type of custom work, sorry!
A solution is to create block with your specific settings(title, filter options, pagination..) and use the shortcode in inline ad section from Theme Panel as theme ad system was designed to display also shortcodes – https://forum.tagdiv.com/article-ads/
* add a block to a page and customize it, then copy the shortcode – http://screencast.com/t/FcBSZfYGEJhttp://screencast.com/t/SYT0xt5zTj and paste it in ad area – http://screencast.com/t/pNiz1zUz4zh you may need additional customizations.

Thanks!

Hi,

Do you want to set your page as static frontpage? You can set it from Settings > Reading – http://screencast.com/t/28qIDRJkJW4q
Using default template or pagebuilder with latest articles will not add you sidebar automatically at your content, you need to use like I suggested above Widgetised Sidebar block or just add blocks there – http://screencast.com/t/DgBXgLLy
Please let me know how it goes, also provide some screenshots and your site URL if this doesn’t help.

Thanks!

Hi Alin!

Thanks so much! It worked for some, http://imgur.com/rbOlRIM. It doesn’t work for Blocks like Block 15 and (the sidebar widget of) Block 17 – the ones with small thumbnails. Sorry, we really need to show the author name on every post on the front page since we’ll be having different writers.

Maybe on future updates, you could add options which to show on the blocks like: categories, author, dates, excerpt, excerpt length, etc 🙂 Keep up the awesome work 🙂

Hi,

I have also tested this and it works – http://screencast.com/t/33YhvV5zkgUshttp://screencast.com/t/wE97ibc4N but on modules/blocks it will not be displayed using html/css code – http://screencast.com/t/U7ZMIOYWYabi it was not designed for this.

Thanks!

Hi,

Please check documentation for block settings(filter options) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/ for example you can filter posts from a different category on your blocks.
Also you can find out more about unique articles or offset features – https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles-and-offset-newspaper/

Thanks!

Hi,

Unfortunately you will need custom work for each of your issues as it is not so easy to achieve that and the theme doesn’t have any of these options. We cannot provide any type of custom work at this time as we work hard on development, updates and support. I suggest to hire a professional to do this for you if you don’t know how to do it.
Please take a look to the inline code and try to duplicate that function like I suggested in this topic – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/more-inline-ads-in-post/
Also for related articles ad you can try to add a counter in related article block file so the banner will appear after x posts – http://screencast.com/t/qJItwevH

Thanks!
