Hi,
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have infinite load feature for post pages, it has ajax pagination only for blocks(next/prev, infinite,load more). The only way to achieve infinite load on post with our theme is to use block shortcode like Lucian suggested above.
Thanks!
Hi,
You will need custom work to achieve that as it will be affected also megamenu pagination and you have to do more customizations.
The simplest way is to do this only for block 8 or block where you want this pagination, so duplicate block pagination function from – http://screencast.com/t/Mryyqad2I0 and change the pagination that you use for block 8 – http://screencast.com/t/9v30EEz0n
And customize with css code to hide the arrows(you have to hide thos as it wont look fine) and the text width – http://screencast.com/t/fONewiriW
.td_block8 .td-ajax-next-page, .td_block8 .td_ajax-prev-page {
background-image: none !important;
}
.td_block8 .td_ajax-prev-page {
right: 121px !important;
}
.td_block8 .td-ajax-next-page {
right: 56px !important;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
I also checked this and seems that it is an issue there. Please use this custom css to change color for author box title – http://screencast.com/t/Qbml0ujSvE
.td_top_authors .block-title span {
background-color: #4D6DEC !important;
}
.td_top_authors .block-title {
border-color: #4D6DEC !important;
}
Thanks!
Hello Alin,
We switched to Block 8 to avoid the smaller thumbs, and also decided that the Next/Previous pagination works best for us.
However, I wonder if all visitors notice the ” > ” symbol and/or understand that clicking it makes the next set of blog posts visible.
The symbol (encircled in red) may be a bit inconspicuous, i.e. not very noticeable. I wonder if the texts “Seuraava” (Finnish for “Next”) and “Edellinen” (Finnish for “Previous”) could somehow be made to accompany the symbols ” > ” and ” < “, respectively.
I can find how to change the background color for the footer. But, how is the footer font color changed and the block color changed for the widgets?
It’s different than shown in the documentation.
Thanks,
See the theme docs right side of page.
Basically you will need to
a) create a “page”
b) launch visual composer for the page, then add “rows” and “blocks” however you want your page done.
c) once you have it the way you want, you would then set that page as the one to show from the WP settings > reading – then it would replace default blog list.
Hallo,
I have this problem with OUR AUTHORS’ header color.
If I configure the header color it doesn’t take effect. It seems to be influenced by this style
.block-title a, .block-title span, .block-title label {
background-color: #100505;
which I have before used to modify bottom footer headers via child style.
Please howto solve?
please have a look to

Hi,
You can place a block instead of Related Articles using do_shortcode function:
* Take the shortcode of a block(use setting for sort order,title..): http://screencast.com/t/143oITwq9byA – http://screencast.com/t/NlBT470SYPnP
* Replace the Related Articles code in post template that you use – http://screencast.com/t/hvyJrzYZfdji – http://screencast.com/t/xj7M3jOJ – http://screencast.com/t/eapEU5vP6
<?php echo do_shortcode('your shortcode');?>
Thanks!

Hi,
When I go in Theme panel/theme color I have differents option but I don’t find one to change the color between my post or my block.
As you can see in zHappyng.com, it’s white between my posts/block and I want to change it.
When I try to change the theme color or the background color, the color change on the left and white column but not in my block
Can you tell me how I can do please?
Best regards
Hi,
Thanks Chris!
@awtown The above css code will place the thumb above the title but you can change this if you like how it looks – http://screencast.com/t/9wy1BnfrpkKl Replace with this code in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/9nlnbRRJ
@media (min-width: 768px){
.td-pb-row .td-pb-span4 .td_block_11 .entry-thumb {
width: 180px !important;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.td-pb-row .td-pb-span4 .td_block_11 .td-module-title {
padding-left: 185px !important;
}
}
Also if you like with thumb above title like I provided the code first time, please adjust that code like this as it affect also module 10. So this is the right code and I will also edit and change it in my previous post: http://screencast.com/t/qVrW4EhS7
@media (min-width: 768px){
.td-pb-row .td-pb-span4 .td_block_11 .entry-thumb {
width: 180px !important;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
.td-pb-row .td-pb-span4 .td_block_11 .td_module_10 .td-module-thumb {
float: none!important;
}
.td-pb-row .td-pb-span4 .td_block_11 .td-module-title {
padding-left: 0px !important;
}
}
Thanks!
I was using Newsmag Version: 1.6 then updated to 1.7 and 1.7.1, after update search block got broken.
please help to fix this.
i already tried reinstalling updates.
Hi,
1. Please edit your page and from block settings you ca change those titles – http://screencast.com/t/rQjScE1Fdd
2. You can filter your articles using a different category for your blocks from block settings – http://screencast.com/t/3jZ7SkjLN5 Another solution will be to enable Unique articles feature for your page or use offset feature: https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles-and-offset-newspaper/ If you have pagination unique articles doesn’t work.
Please also follow our documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/
3. That is a custom menu created for our demo site so there is no option to activate it from Theme Panel or Menus section. But you can activate it from the code – http://screencast.com/t/vnjN5oVFw and you can change the links an text from here – http://screencast.com/t/RaZ1kmVtcA
4. Please set Autoplay from Big Slider/Slider settings – http://screencast.com/t/TX6JFsEH
Thanks!
Hi,
@tobiasg Unfortunately the aspect ratio of your image create this issue, as there is not an ideal image size so it can look good on all thumbs, you will need to make some tests and see which image aspect ratio to use of course depending on the blocks/modules that you use. If you want to change thumbnails sizes – http://screencast.com/t/gjw1fcCncI
You can find out more about cropping here – http://www.davidtan.org/wordpress-hard-crop-vs-soft-crop-difference-comparison-example/ – https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_image_size
Hope this helps!

Hi,
I guess that you refer to the block 9(use module 8) you can set excerpt length from Theme Panel > Excerpt section for module 8: http://screencast.com/t/Hq7MOaCqg2
Also if you refer to the module 1 that display the entire content of the post you have to insert read more tag in your post content so the read more button will appear there.
Thanks!
Hi,
You can use do_shortcode() function in page template that you use to display a slider or a block there. Add a block using page builder and set articles to display(category, sort..) – http://screencast.com/t/IU2p24MReul change to Classic mode and take the shortcode – http://screencast.com/t/yHgk8eeDqtTf and use it bellow pagination – http://screencast.com/t/YNvQQxdrB5 – http://screencast.com/t/IGVuezEe
echo do_shortcode('your shortcode');
Thanks!
Hi
i would like to disable the「Related Articles 」section and change it to other blocks instead, in order to show some last articles, can i do this? thank you.
Well they should all fit, unless the image on front page is larger than the image you upload; WordPress cannot “enlarge” thumbnails … so, you will end up with blank space someplace with the image thumb if block image larger than original image as it will crop in one dimension only.
So, try using the “thumbnail upscale” (free) plugin which will help to scale up any image to fit a block when cropping it. It works both retroactively when regen thumbs, but also for future featured images.
It’s what I use. 🙂
Hi Alin,
Thank you for the custom CSS. Works great.
I have amended it as follows:
.block-title > a, .block-title > span {
background-color: #ffffff !important;
color: #1c1c1c !important;
border: 1px solid #1c1c1c;
border-radius: 0px !important
}
.td-footer-container .block-title > a, .td-footer-container .block-title > span{
background-color:#686868 !important;
color: #ffffff !important;
border: 1px solid #ffffff;
}
This squares the borders and brings the titles into same color style as the blocks and the footer. (I trust I did this right?)
It works beautifully on “Posts”.
However, it appears that on “Pages”, the width of the page is actually set to be more narrow than the width of “Posts”. Thus the top of the borders on my Footer titles disappear on “Pages” but work fine on “Posts”.
See the differences here:
I noticed something a few days ago when my text padding on “Pages” gave me more white space in the margins on mobile devices than my “Posts” did.
White space is a desirable effect when it comes to typography, but I was unable to replicate this effect in “Posts”. Didn’t realize at the time why.
Is there some way to have the boxing of “Posts” and “Pages” to be the same? I am kind of surprised that they are not by default. Am I missing a setting in VC?
And if not, I will need a fix for the borders of my footer titles on “Pages” that does not ruin the borders on “Posts”.
Edit:
I don’t know if you guys have ever noticed this, but the tops of your backgrounds in your Footer Block Titles are clipped off on “Pages” even before we amended this style.

Hi, guys!
Can you tell me, how can I post a 2/3 slider(or else content) after pagination at home page latest articles?

By using visual composer content (widgets, blocks etc) is placing above “latest articles” (under big slide).
Hey!
the shim is still in beta, but I have it working on our two busiest sites and have had zero CPU issues since. (YAY!)
Basically, according to Radu the way it works with the latest VC is that you leave both VC active and the shim “recognizes” that and disables it, but you can still edit pages, supposedly.
In our case I did this:
a) left both VC and shim on server (I’m actually using the January version of VC from 1.6)
b) turn on shim, turn off VC
c) most home page stuff works perfectly; however a few odd elements may NOT work and so you have to choose NOT to use those (not the blocks/modules, or ticker; but couple of the oddball things…)
d) then I turn VC on if I need to edit something on home page; save; then disable VC again.
So, we have VC in plugins folder – otherwise you can’t edit your home page anymore (!). BUT, it’s completely disabled with shim running.
I don’t have “latest” shim version if there is one, mine is still BETA 1.02 … but that works! Yes, it’s still in BETA mode, which is why there isn’t a help item or sticky for that yet, I would imagine. And not everyone needs it; not sure if it works with child themes, as I don’t use those EVER.
Hope that helped.

Hi,
A solution to lower the number of MYSQL queries would be to reduce the number of blocks on the page, also you can remove the unused/unimportant plugins.
You can also try our beta Shim plugin – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newsmag-1-7-1-killed-our-server-again/#post-48576
Thanks!
Hello,
On the home page of my site featured images show up in different aspect ratios
At the top they look good and show the full image. Down in block 6 they are cropped. How can I make sure that they image is shown the same in all locations?
Thank you, Toby
Hi,
You can try to change the color for all block titles(this will change it also for content blocks, footer blocks…): http://screencast.com/t/mlfdxXXPHb
.block-title > a, .block-title > span {
background-color: green !important;
color: #222222 !important;
border: 1px solid red;
}
If you don’t want this you will have to target titles for each widget where you want to change it.
Thanks!
Hi,
In Newspaper (v5.0) we will include most of the features from Newsmag like smart sidebar feature,smart lists, some new post templates and blocks/module(as you can see in our demo Newsmag has more blocks and post styles than Newspaper). Also the Newspaper will be a bit larger as you can see right now Newspaper’s grid width is 1170px while Newsmag’s width comes around 1021px.
Thanks!
