Ok.
For the second point (block not in visual composer), you just have to go into the settings of VC and add the right for administrator
BUT, for the first point, you CHANGED THE SHORTCODES. Block are now like td_block_2 whereas they were td_block2 before. It means that i need to change all the shortcodes of all my pages !!!
So great!
I did the update to V6, installed everything ( including child theme and td-api-plugin) and I have no more blocks….
Blocks are not recognized. I have only the shortcode which appear on screen. And when i go on the page editor, i cannot select any block through visual composer. They are not listed…
Hi,
Thanks for hovering effect.
Can I insert modules using visual composer or can I choose some layout from where we can choose modules in which posts will be displayed. As module 7 has bigger image which I want, but none of the blocks contain bigger image. I want one big image and then two small images in a row. Can you help me out?
I have bought theme just now and I’m not able to make Infinite load work.
Here is my custom home page link:-
http://dailydoser.com/myhome/
Template Selected – “Homepage – blank”
Added 2 elements via Visual composer:-
1. Big Slide
2. Block 9 -> Selected Use ajax & Pagination – infinite load option
What am I doing wrong? This is brand new theme with no extra plugins but still infinite load is not working.
Any pointers in this regard will be appreciated.
I’m seeing javascript error in console while debugging but not sure why that error is coming.
Hi,
Please note that Newspaper theme was designed in 3 columns fixed grid, so the blocks are recommended to be used 1/1 – 1/3 + 1/3 + 1/3, or2/3 + 1/3 – http://screencast.com/t/6gdyLvoX4 You can also split row like you want, but not all blocks will work fine and you may need additional customizations.
You can try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css to remove underline for articles titles on blocks/modules also on Big Slide and normal Slide:
.iosSlider .td-sbig-title-wrap a:hover span, .td-big-grid-title a:hover, .td_mod_wrap .entry-title a:hover {
text-decoration: none !important;
}
Thanks!

Hi,
I’m not sure how you can do this as the articles position is changing in the block/module so I’m afraid that you cannot change the border color depending on category of the post.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that you enable thumbs on blocks from Theme Panel > Block settings and then try to regenerate your thumbnails using this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
Thanks!
Hi team,
I want to divide a row with the size 1/2+1/4+1/4 in one of my pages using visual composer. For 1/2 part, I want a single image to cover entire space using block 3. for 1/4 parts i want to use block 4. I am setting post limit to 1. But when I try to do so, some blank space appears after block 3 , i dont want that..how to do implement this?
thanks,
careongo
Hi,
You will have to edit td_block_mega_menu.php and make this change – http://screencast.com/t/RLMvXl9wH
Result: http://screencast.com/t/7dVqQFMUp
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an option for this, but you can add a border using custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/l8ffqjr5Hcc but this it will apply anywhere you use module 10. You will need custom work to achieve that, eventually add an extra class to column where you use block 10 to target only that block – http://screencast.com/t/oH1JgW8X7MU6 and if you want a different color you can use nth-child selector – http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/sel_nth-child.asp – http://screencast.com/t/3ZzQIuaJAcS
Thanks!
Hi,
@Christopher thanks!
@vtobing You can change the color of the Grid line on Newsmag theme if you want this – http://screencast.com/t/9wYZwr0k
1. Please try Christopher suggestion and use Regenerate thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ anyway I have checked your homepage and the thumbnails are displayed fine – http://screencast.com/t/EafYUovZba
2.
a. Not sure why do you have this issue, if you have articles on Featured category it should be displayed also on Big Slider.
b. You can use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css for Big Slider arrows – http://screencast.com/t/DtyeieMwq8e
.iosSlider.td_block_big_grid .td-icon-left, .iosSlider.td_block_big_grid .td-icon-right {
color: red !important;
}
Also for normal slider you can add a background to the arrows – http://screencast.com/t/bDrHvF5t7u
.iosSlider .prevButton, .iosSlider .nextButton {
background-color: red;
}
3. You can try to change the post style as default from Theme Panel > Post Settings – http://screencast.com/t/SoPnjVmiAjRR This option is overwritten by the ‘Post template’ option from the backend – post add / edit page.
4. To improve the pagespeed score please check if the following optimization are done on your side – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ – and this one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-pagespeed-2015/
Thanks!
Hi,
You can use shortcodes in theme’s ad spots for example if you wnat to display social icons element from Visual Composer, you need to add social icons block to a page, add your social links in the blocks settings and take the shortcode – http://screencast.com/t/KEkzxO0Por8 – http://screencast.com/t/hWbnNa2emkb and paste it in header ad section – http://screencast.com/t/8k3R3aRII
Result: http://screencast.com/t/vymFVYAbd
Also if you want to edit the theme headers please check parts folder – http://screencast.com/t/Xfk5T4rxc5
Thanks!
Hi,
You use the default page template, so please check Custom Typography section from Theme Panel and increase the line height for Page Content H3 – http://screencast.com/t/tJ9lw02l
Also please check theme’s documentation to see what page template to use if you want pagebuilder content(add blocks to you page content) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates/
Thanks!
Hi,
You can create new page(s), choose page template and add blocks from Visual Composer – http://screencast.com/t/3jYhKlXqHoxI Also if you want to use demo’s pages you have to edit each block and set your filter options, block title, pagination… – http://screencast.com/t/P1STUMvc
Thanks!
Some traffic not caught due to anonymous browsing; some things not tracked due to duplicate visitors vs unique visits; some duplication from same IPs (e.g., AOL, cable company) may not be counted twice even though two visitors (some systems look for some other data, some just count two people using same IP as same person, not unique).
Google never gets all visits as javascript doesn’t work all browsers, alt image pixel may be blocked by adblocker software, etc.
AdSense may combine all ads served (2 ads per page 10,000 visits = 20,000 impressions) dpending on what you look at.
We have found using something like PIWIK (open source) running on server is middle ground. if you have dedicated server, worth looking at 🙂
Or, go by AWSTATS which is counting content actually SERVED by the hardware/software and will be more accurate. If your website serves 10,000 pages – then that is how many pages got served. Period.
Hi,
the past few days I was busy getting the performance up and running without plugins (and doing not too bad so far).
But it seems that something messed up the slider display, photos are enlarged and the actual slider is not visible. And I can’t figure out what is causing this. Also the images show a darkened bottom, any chance to remove this ?
Since I’m here google pagespeed annoys with should fix this for mobiles (but not for desktop!):
Optimize CSS Delivery of the following:
http://www.dinckol.com/…-content/plugins/jetpack/css/jetpack.css
http://www.dinckol.com/…cons/genericons/genericons.css?ver=1.7.1
http://www.dinckol.com/…themes/Newsmag-child/style.css?ver=1.7.1
http://www.dinckol.com/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/style.css
I understand from what I have read so far the theme css’ hast to be loaded at top. Once you open my page you will see nonetheless a brief delay the style gets applied. any suggestions to improve mobile speed and visual experience?
Thanks
Hi,
You have to edit module 8(this is used to create block 9) and make this change – http://screencast.com/t/mKXlw7y7wn6
Result: http://screencast.com/t/8R3zMACgiVQ
Thanks!
Hi,
This feature doesn’t work well with caching plugins, so you should test this without a cache plugin. I guess that this caused also issues with your block (“it doesn’t update that often”).
Also you have to wait 24-48 hours to be sure that the above solution works as this sort option is applying from the moment that it is activated on a block.
Thanks!
Hi,
1. Like I said above and also the developer told you that you have to edit each module where you want reading time to appear and place there your php code or shortcode – http://screencast.com/t/xDPvB0ua
Adding this code into the modules it should display reading time for your articles on pages, category pages every where there are used modules/blocks.
If you want reading date also on your post pages you have to edit loop single (for each post template) – http://screencast.com/t/W8kHujLb86s
2. Also the progress bar I guess that it must be activated from plugin’s settings.
Unfortunately we did not tested this plugin and if you don’t know how to implement it I suggest to hire a freelancer to do this for you as we cannot provide any type of custom work at this time, sorry!
Thanks!
Good suggestion, thank you! I tried it, and it broke the grid for the blocks below. So for now, we’re going to just use block 10. I’ll look into building a custom block later.
Hi,
You can go to the text html when you switch to Classic mode – http://screencast.com/t/rrhLxWtQ also please note that when you change to Backend Editor, your code will be added in a text block so you will need to edit text block if you want to make some changes – http://screencast.com/t/ZorZo8PK
Thanks!
Hello guys, my site is http://concursospublicos.ninja,
I installed the plugin “WP Time to Read”, you can see this plugin here: https://mythemeshop.com/plugins/wp-time-to-read/
but I have to add a code in some pages to plugin works correctly. So I opened a topic in the forum of the developer of the plugin, and they answered this:
Hello,
You seem to be using Visual Composer plugin to build up you homepage. It is slightly tricky in that case since you need to edit the modules in order to show the time to read in all modules. I would request you to ask your theme developer if there is an easier way to do it. Otherwise, you have to find all instances of this code in all files:
<h1 itemprop=”name” class=”entry-title td-page-title”>
<span><?php the_title() ?></span>
</h1>
and paste the code for Time to read below it.
Basically the plugin do 2 things:
1. Shows how much time takes to read each post, as you can see here: http://remedioparaquedadecabelo.net.br/artigos/ (for example “10 minutes to read”, but this site is translated to pt-br)
2. When you scrolls the page, the plugin shows a progress bar of read content in the top of the post, as you can see here: http://remedioparaquedadecabelo.net.br/tratamentos-para-a-queda-de-cabelo/
So, please answer this question to me.
Hi
I have the same issue but only when i use the block “Slide”. For all other blocks, images are perfect. I did use Regenerate my thumbnails and it succeeded for all 1100 images of my website. Nevertheless, for “Slide”, it does not look good at all…
Hello!
I have found through google (https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/) newspaper documentation about how to configure thumbnail sizes, and there says you can disable what you want in Theme Panel > Block Settings > Thumbs on modules & blocks but in my theme panel i can’t found that option (Version: 4.6.3)
How can I enable it? is there any new update since april?
Thanks!
