Hi Calin,
You can only do that with the blocks on the homepage tho?
Hello @thelansingjournal !
Edit the search template with the TagDiv Composer, click on the results, and check in the block if you have Sort Order: Latest, and it should display in the correct order. It will display the first latest post from December.
But it has the word “club” there. Anyway, if you set the sort order to latest, it won’t display there.
Thank you!
Thnaks,
I’ve already found it.
I have general most important problem with images.
Have you encountered such a problem?
1. In many cases (not all) regenerate-thumbnails plugin inform me:
The fullsize image file cannot be found in your uploads directory at…
and I see this image in the directory.
2. The regenerated image generate additional image sizes which I don’t see in BLOCK SETTINGS > THUMBS SIZES
I’m using cdn synchronized via WP media with AWS and for optimalization by Smush.

Hi there,
I have a request for a future update to improve the customization of the theme.
Would it be possible to add some options on the Image Info Box block to adjust the horizontal and vertical position of the image that is inside the block? That would be very handy!
Thank you very much in advance.
Suggestion for future update:
It would be very handy to have an Image url option for the Column Title block.
This is my website: https://australie.bucket-list.fr/essentiel-avant-de-partir-en-australie/ I would really like to be able to click on the blue title to be redirected to another page.
Is it an option that could be added?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Cheers,
Adrien
Hi,
In order to make them to look the same size, you’ll need to set an excerpt on title and post content like this -> https://i.imgur.com/o8UQm5B.png
Also, you can set the excerpt on words or letters from theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/c7Q8ckX.png
Here is a similar topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/flex-block-1-and-same-blocks-height/
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately that WordPress ill not apply in our theme, what you need to do is to set the post id in a block in filter tab – https://i.imgur.com/leBNQsm.jpg – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-block-settings-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hello,
The image for placeholder can be set from the Newsmag > theme panel > block settings > thumbs – https://i.imgur.com/UtRILGB.png
Thank you!
Hi
I’m trying to use this above plugin with the Newspaper theme. However, it’s background skin ad isn’t working as expected (I need more advanced functionality than the theme offers for this). They recommend the following:
It is a common issue that the theme is configured in a way that it either covers or overrides the background ads or prevents them from being clicked.
In all cases, you or your theme developer should still be able to see that the body element has a background-image style attribute.
You or your theme developer can either find the element in the theme and adjust it to not cover the background anymore. Or you can move the background to another element using the code below in the functions.php file of your theme.
add_filter( ‘advanced-ads-pro-background-selector’, ‘my_custom_background_selector’ ); function my_custom_background_selector() {
// replace ‘.main-container’ with the class or id used in your theme
return ‘.main-container’;
}
Note: replace .main-container with the overlaying element.
Would you be able to advise as to what the overlaying element is?
Also, how can I specify the body content width for the website?
Many thanks!
Hi,
I’m trying to make a row of 3 modules in Flex Block X the same height.
While it can be done by limiting the title and excerpt length, I want those to remain fluid, and instead have the ‘Read More’ link bottom aligned in each module.
Is there anyway this can be achieved?
Apologies for bumping an old thread, but was this feature ever added?
On a Flex Block, for example, it would be handy to be able to specify a different ‘limit post number’ for desktop and mobile.
Hello!
A shortcode means the element Flex block or Posts Loop from the TagDiv Composer.
So, the element Flex block with a special filter, for example, the current category, will dynamically display the posts from the current category depending on which one you are in. So, you need to add a flex block with that filter in the category template once, and it will display the posts for each category if you have the same category template assigned to your categories.
You can use a flex block with a special filter instead of a big grid. Set an offset to the posts loop of how many posts display the previous element, the flex block.
Thank you!
Hello @Robinl2507!
You can use an offset 1: https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/ in the second block.
Thank you!
Hello, I have a question about showing articles in a flexblock. I have one which shows all my articles sorted on “the latest” with a maximum of 10. I also use a block to highlight my latest article, so that is just 1 article. I was wondering if it is possible to adjust my flexblock with 10 articles in a way that it automatically does’nt show the latest article. I know the way to exclude an article with the article-id number, but that is a not workable if I post 5 articles a day. So I am looking for a automatic way to do this, showing article 1 in a highlighted way and than start the flexblock right under with article 2/11. (For example, now i used the post-id option )
Hello Megan!
No. Check the old block which is not working. You have an extra class there. Delete it and try again.
Thank you!
Hello @furlanj !
You can check out our demos here: https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/newspaper-prebuilt-websites/.
You can import a section or a block if you want from the Cloud Library.
Also, you can build it on a cloud template with the elements you need there.
Thank you!
Hi,
You could try it in a testing/staging install first. A copy of the website can be created with the duplicator plugin for example, or by any other means. Then you can remove the Newsmag theme and its plugins, and install the Newspaper theme and its plugins.
Then it depends on how you want to proceed. One way would be to install a Newspaper demo, which will provide a new homepage and the templates. Or you can import demo parts, they are all available in the cloud library https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/All
Besides sharing a few blocks from the composer, they are different themes after all.
In terms of risks, not sure what to say. Be sure to move your ad codes, analytics codes, also check the SEO, set the widget sidebars. If you use a child theme perhaps, that will have to be remade, in case it is still needed. If you have other pages, check those as well after switching the themes, they may have to be rebuilt or adjusted.
Let me know if you have questions, we can discuss more.
Thank you!
We understood where the problem was coming from, it was Adblock which was blocking the ads and which was not displaying the ads in the composer. Thanks to the team for the help.
Hello!
Yes. We have some special filters that will apply depending on the page you are on: https://app.screencast.com/BjL89PWCkwePU -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Or you can choose a post loop element, and the filter will apply automatically.
Thank you!
Hi @ncalex,
I think I found another issue.
In Author Socials block, when when Social network name setting defined as Show, the name shown next to the icon is the name of code of an icon and is written in lowercase, instead of the actual name.
– When “Mail” field is set in wp-admin/profile.php, the name of the social network is shown as “mail-1”, as per span tdb-social-text.
Screenshot 1
Screenshot 2
Screenshot 3
How to change “mail-1” to “Email” to be shown in front end?
Thank you.
Hi Bettina,
The block was from the theme. We didn’t add any custom code to it. I did try to add a new flex1 block and you’re right the pagination works, however, in mobile the blocks don’t stack the way they do in the current block. So it’s possible the theme had added code in order to get the blocks to stack? Either way, we do need that block to operate in the same way as it does now (as it came in the theme). As such, do you know how to get a new block to stack OR any idea of how to fix the pagination in the theme’s block?
Thanks!
Megan
Hello @actusIA!
Unfortunately, this is not possible to achieve with our theme. Our blocks are not integrated with the Jetpack statistics.
You can add our block: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ and display the most popular sort order: https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/
A shortcode can be inserted by using the element called “Column text” or “Text with title”.
Thank you!
Hello!
I can see that you already added that block.
For customization and other services, you can contact our custom work team here: https://tagdiv.com/premium-customization-services/.
Thank you so much for your understanding!
Hey, inline css in block settings was already on.
I turned off the W3 cache plugin for now.
Hi,
Both URLs are not working
4. You can set what style you want, and it is applied to the accent color. There is no style to show the color individual for each social icon. (disappointing)
