Hi,
Please take a look at this block settings: http://screencast.com/t/usnHKnLVB you have to change pagination to “Infinite load”: http://screencast.com/t/QM2rDhHLcqzL
Also maybe this can help: https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage/
If you still have this issue, please deactivate all plugins, leave only Visual Composer plugin active, clear cache and try again.
Please provide more details about slider issue. I have checked your site and you use a Big Slide: http://screencast.com/t/2Ihdulq3
Thanks!
Use the one I’ve given above:
@mrbogdan
If you also need the xml files of the demo you can make a request for it on email and we will send it to you. Send your request at contact@tagdiv.com and also include a link to this topic.
Thanks
Hi,
My guess is that somehow your update hasn’t been done well or you have made changes/modifications to the theme as the it seems that this css code is missing or it’s not applied: http://screencast.com/t/jPoIT65Hu
Please also test this after disabling the css minifier/html compressor and make sure you empty cache/purge files afterwards then test again without plugins.
Add this css in theme panel > custom css for the mega menu issue:
.td-mega-menu .td_block_mega_menu {
padding-top: 20px;
}
For the “Related posts” issue, after I inspected your site I noticed that the images are loaded at their original sizes which should not happen so I suggest you follow this guide and regenerate thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After that please make sure you empty cache and/or purge files.
The line height/ font/ size/ family/ weight.. can be changed from theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/DHO5IQnJrLqW
Thanks
Hi,
1. This can be done only if you create a custom sidebar for each category: http://screencast.com/t/ZVk0Wbmgy
Then add widgets and set to display that specific category’s articles: http://screencast.com/t/PGh35ka5I2y
Result: http://screencast.com/t/4ZjIfzmEPQF
You have to do this for each category.
Also to exclude current post from sidebar’s block you have to edit td_data_source.php and add this code: http://screencast.com/t/YFGmSjRoL
global $post;
if (is_singular()){
$args['post__not_in'] = array( $post->ID );
}
2. This is not possible on post template 5(that you use) without custom modifications, we cannot offer custom work for the moment because we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support.
Please use the default template and if you don’t want to display featured image please edit loop-single.php and delete this: http://screencast.com/t/0f8k48S4uoM
Result: http://screencast.com/t/CEdnAr3nNB – http://screencast.com/t/wnJzK3qK2FD
Hi.. No worries… i would rather keep the default wordpress comment system… But what I would like to do is to disable to section of website and email from the comment form! how can i do that?
Secondly how can I fix these things??
1. Your page has 2 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.
Optimize CSS Delivery of the following:
http://www.magscroll.com/…y-social-share-buttons.min.css?ver=2.0.3
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto%3A400%2C700&ver=4.1
2. Minify JavaScript
Minifying http://www.magscroll.com/…es/Newspaper/js/td_external.js?ver=4.6.1 could save 3.4KiB (10% reduction) after compression.
Minifying http://www.magscroll.com/…assets/js/js_composer_front.js?ver=4.3.5 could save 2.1KiB (36% reduction) after compression.
3. Leverage browser caching for the following cacheable resources:
http://www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js (2 hours)
4. Minify HTML for the following resources to reduce their size by 1.3KiB (12% reduction).
Minifying http://www.magscroll.com/ could save 1.3KiB (12% reduction) after compression.
Currently I am not using any cache plugin because when i use WP Super Cache it makes my site slower than the normal speed.
Please advise me on that.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the ticker is also taken into consideration when using the unique articles feature, we have this on our todo list and we are working to find a better implementation regarding this.
A solution would be not to use the unique articles feature and configure your blocks not to show duplicated posts by using block filters, sort order or the offset feature: http://screencast.com/t/DseVP3MRnPE2
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks for the message!
Hi Alin,
Thanks for all the 3 screenshots, but I have already did them. I just removed the block 1 and readded it, and it now shows on the sidebar, but it’s all categories block, what I am looking for is the category the article is tagged with. If an article is tagged with a category “smart phones”, I want the sidebar to display all the latest articles from that category “smart phones”.
Also Another question I asked, now I am repeating again, how to move the sidebar up so the article title wont be displayed full page width. Take a look at the page here, http://www.techtimesgazette.com/2015/02/the-order-1886-full-playthrough-leaked-developer-comments-on-clickbait-rumours/
Thanks,

Problem: Ad Box or Block 10
Located: Homepage, above “NEWS” section
Details: The Ad box, appears over Block 10 element [VIEWERS’ PICKS; LATEST IN TECHNOLOGY; TRENDING VIDEO; MOST READ ON CSG]
Request: How to resolve this issue [we want to have 15/20px distance above and below the ad ]
Request 2: Is there any possibility to show the Block 10 elements [VIEWERS’ PICKS; LATEST IN TECHNOLOGY; TRENDING VIDEO; MOST READ ON CSG] only on desktops and hidden on tablets/mobiles?
Hi,
I’ve already replied on how you can do that here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/menu-and-box-title-arrangment/
Use css, like this: http://screencast.com/t/DiNshwoM
body {
direction: rtl;
}
.sf-menu {
float: right;
position: relative;
}
.td_mod3 .item-details {
margin-right: 117px;
margin-left: 0px;
}
.td-ajax-next-page {
right: auto !important;
background-position: -20px -20px !important;
left: 15px !important;
}
.td_ajax-prev-page {
right: auto !important;
left: 0px !important;
}
Please also:
Search the forum for suggestion and fixes for the issue you may encounter
Thanks

Hi,
I’ve checked your site but haven’t found a big slider so I can inspect this. Your screenshots aren’t found also. Please let me know if you still have this issues and provide more details about this.
The image needs to be at least 1074x483px wide so that it can look good in all cases (sliders, modules, blocks). Please make sure you upload and use a large image then regenerate thumbnails again.
You can also check our demo to check how the theme should look: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
Thanks
Hi,
If you refer to child categories of selected category, unfortunately there is no option in Theme Panel, but this can be changed with css code in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/GLBzgRlRreF
.block-child-cats a {
font-family: 'Roboto Slab', sans-serif;
font-size: 10px;
}
Result: http://screencast.com/t/LhHYhvwhJ

Hi,
1. Please add this css in Theme Panel > Custom Css and use a solid color for background: http://screencast.com/t/hnBnXvtWOr
.td-sbig-title-wrap .td-sbig-title {
background-color: #4db2ec;
}
.td-big-grid-title .td-sbig-title-wrap {
background-color: #4db2ec;
}
2. Please use this custom css, it will apply to all links: http://screencast.com/t/QbAU9FOfHU
a:hover{
text-decoration: none !important;
color: red !important;
}
3. You will need custom modification for this, unfortunately we cannot offer custom work because we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support.
I gave you a solution for this above. Use a page template without articles list: http://screencast.com/t/hq6MZc8jB and instead use a block for Latest Articles. It will look something like this page from newsmag demo(Scroll to Latest Articles): http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/homepage-infinite-scroll/
Please follow block’s settings(this block settings are exactly to show Latest Articles like above page):
http://screencast.com/t/geiG1TUvEFux
http://screencast.com/t/Wl8nOauLcQf
Use Infinite Load and show Load More button after x pages: http://screencast.com/t/asRKs5uZ
Also you can translate Load More from Theme Panel > Translations: http://screencast.com/t/VLp9RxDcBN
Hope this helps!

Hi,
I have a few more issues structuring the theme. Some features don’t seem to be working as they should.
1. Offset and unique articles do not work.
– 1a: Offset used on Block 2 (below the Grid), and set to 5 (to avoid showing Featured posts again), yet same articles in POPULAR block below the Grid still appear.
http://content.screencast.com/users/Truefolder/folders/Default/media/440d6432-f978-4e0e-ac15-e29f0f04d04e/offset-not-working-1.JPG
– 1b: Tried using “Unique Articles” feature, then it screws up the whole pattern, and latest articles aren’t the latest anymore, neither in Grid nor in the list of posts below. Just a collection of random posts instead.
Note: All categories are set appropriately to Latest, All categories, etc. I triple-checked everything. Also, “Popular” is not actually set to display Popular articles (if such feature even exists); it’s the “DON’T MISS” block, renamed.
2. In the backend when editing, when I select some Visual Composer and Theme specific features (such as “Show unique articles” option), it disappears once the page is updated, even if it’s selected. Basically, you need to select for those features to appear every single time you edit a page.
3. How do I enable to show Categories for all posts on the homepage? Currently, no setting is set to “Disabled,” so everything should be enabled, right? And the categories must appear on posts? Yet they don’t.
http://content.screencast.com/users/Truefolder/folders/Default/media/d1a67e2d-b9fd-45b2-bae5-a8b1a46fbd4a/category-1.JPG http://content.screencast.com/users/Truefolder/folders/Default/media/7fff5a87-4892-46f3-9250-44226a5e17bf/categories-2.JPG
Thanks!
Testing site: http://topdogtips.com/ (currently Unique Articles is disabled; Offset on Block 2 is still set to 5)
CDN, Caching, etc. disabled while testing.
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi
I really want to add the ticker on top of my site.
WE use a static home page organized in blocks etc. There are 4 sections, one for the articles (sorted by recent) and 3 other for articles with additional categories (e.g. “insights”, “sticky” , “knowledge base”).
To avoid duplicates the page is set as UNIQUE ARTICLES.
The problem is that if I add the ticker with the todays news, the subsequent section, coherently with the setting, does not show the news of today. We don’t want this, since we want the ticker to not affect the rest of the page.
Is there a way to achieve this? The best would be to provide to each section (or to each block) the uniqueness:on-off property + a priority propery so to make a preference in case of redundancy between the other sections.
Is there such a possibility, or suggested workarounds?
Thanks in avdance
Fabio
Hi,
1. You could add a condition here: http://screencast.com/t/50qNgy5V7h1p ..and customize the big grid code as when on the category you want to use a specific filter.
2. If you use the full width of the page then you can just use the block and filter the posts by tag then set the block to use 3 posts.
You can use the same tag for your posts and use the sort option or offset feature or use different tags and set them in the order you want your posts to appear on your block.
ex:
1. http://screencast.com/t/UyueutGnz0S
2. http://screencast.com/t/l4dJxGpY
3. http://screencast.com/t/s7o0wvlk
3. We are working on it but I can’t say for sure when it will be released.
Thanks
Hi Lucian thanks for the reply, I can change it in:
.header-logo-wrap .td-logo-text {
display: block;
font-family: ‘Life Savers’, sans-serif;
accessed from appearance>>edit in wordpress menu
Hi,
Thanks @DavisBeatz
@Afterglow
You have to enable the unique articles feature and you will get posts just once on your page: http://screencast.com/t/DhQxmXUIW
If you have pagination unique articles doesn’t work, try the offset feature or use a different category on blocks.
Please take a look here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles-and-offset-newspaper/
Thanks!

Hi,
You don’t need to update it/buy it, we will provide the updated version of the plugin within next theme update. For now please ignore the update notification from WordPress.
Please also note that:
The theme includes a license for this plugin so you don’t have to buy it.
You don’t have to activate the plugin license, it’s already activated.
You can’t update the plugin directly from the it’s producer.
You don’t have to worry about the plugin update warnings.
You have shared more info about this here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-update-visual-composer-2/
Thanks

Hi,
1.Please provide more details and some screenshots to understand what do you mean.
2. Please use this custom css for titles: http://screencast.com/t/PpDqMdYas
.td_mod_wrap .entry-title a:hover{
text-decoration: none !important;
color:red;
}
Also replied here but for all links: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/header-styling/
3. An alternate solution to display “Latest Articles” would be a block to display them:
http://screencast.com/t/geiG1TUvEFux
http://screencast.com/t/Wl8nOauLcQf
http://screencast.com/t/j4zSXxMAAbsZ
Or you can use Infinite Load and show Load More button after x pages: http://screencast.com/t/asRKs5uZ
4. If you are referring to the Latest Articles you can translate it from Theme Panel > Translations: http://screencast.com/t/P4S1HbtrBaju
Please provide a link and a screenshot if this is not what you mean.
5. You will need custom modifications for this, we would have gladly made it for you but we work very hard on the updates and features for all the users.
Thanks!
Hi,
Sorry if I didn’t make this clear. The issue I am talking about is articles page sidebar, you can take a look, http://www.techtimesgazette.com, check one of the article, and you find that the sidebar isn’t properly populated with block1 which I set through widgets. I am looking for the block1 to populate all the articles for a particular category that the article is tagged with. Just the category, and not the tags.
Thanks,

Hello, I’ve three final questions before I can launch my website with your amazing theme:
1. Is there any way I can have a custom template for a specific category? In particular, I’d like to have the default one, but big grid have to fetch only articles from a specific subcat.
2. I want to use a line with three columns of block 14 in the homepage. I want to select three precise posts. Is it fine if I split the page into the columns each one with one block 14, only one post to fetch and I create three custom categories “column 1”, “column 2”, “column 3” so that I can select precisely which post to show? Is it possible to avoid people browsing “mysite.com/category/column-1”?
Is there any other way to select a precise post?
3. Do you plan to release a new version soon?
Hi,
1. I’m not sure what your issue is as if you don’t set an custom url or title for your block then by default the category name and url are set, you can set them yourself from block settings: http://screencast.com/t/3Xs1cVkyy9c
If this not what you mean, please provide more details and also send your site’s URL with an example.
2. I have posted a solution for this here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/sidebar-ads/#post-21850
Thanks
