Please learn how to create a block for embedding videos from YouTube.
A man has created a plugin that does wonders.
https://ru.wordpress.org/plugins/mihdan-lite-youtube-embed/
Your block for displaying YouTube videos on the page creates a very large load and loads a lot of code.
Perhaps the visitor will not watch the video, but the entire YouTube page is loaded into the frame, which is twice as heavy as my site.
Why didn’t you lazy load videos?
Why load a video into a frame without knowing in advance whether the visitor will watch it?
Why couldn’t it be done in the same way as I indicated above, using the link?
In general, your work is good, but many blocks are just some kind of nightmare, there is neither logic nor optimization.
Hi Anamaria,
I have tested the post loop and flex block and they all doing the same thing please see picture for what I mean
Hello,
For the category template, please use posts loop; if you have set a posts loop then will display all posts in this category or you can use Flex Block/Big Grid Flex and set the filter to “Category -Current category” => https://i.imgur.com/7P99qx0.png and this is why the block will display posts for each category. So, please check the settings.
Thank you!
Hi,
I think that I know this situation. I believe you are using a mobile page and the blocks from if are not filter after that category, please edit it like this – https://i.imgur.com/SNOBjZ2.png then select the blocks and filter theme after the category you need – https://i.imgur.com/WQXrOXp.png
Thank you!
Hello,
Please check the console when you try to save the changes made in Theme Panel maybe is possible to be from the firewall or security module which blocks the admin-ajax.php request, which usually displays a 403 or 404 error.
If you don’t use a security plugin, please ask your host about this, maybe you have a security module that blocks this.
If you use a plugin like Wordfence please set it in learning mode.
Also, if you are using Cloudflare, please make sure that is set as in our guide https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/, you need to disable the Rocket Loader.
Please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict, please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using a child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.
Also, please let me know what changes you made, maybe you need to do them with tagDiv Composer.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
Thank you Calin, I will look into what you suggested.
It would be awesome to have a carousel block as part of your theme in the future.
Hi,
That section can be edited only using css, for example:
.tdb_loop.tdc-no-posts .td_block_inner .no-results h2 {
font-size: 13px;
font-weight: normal;
text-align: left;
padding: 20px;
border: 1px solid rgba(190, 190, 190, 0.35);
color: rgba(125, 125, 125, 0.8);
}
I hope this will help you!
When composing a post, I’m trying to change the text font & the heading fonts/colors, etc. Am not sure how to do that. Also, in the tool boxes on the right side is the text “Looking for other block settings? They’ve moved to the styles tab.” What is meant by the “styles tab?” Where is it located?

Hello,
The options from the Theme Panel are for the standard template, but you have a Pro Prebuilt website and this uses cloud templates, which can be edited with tagDiv Composer ->https://www.screencast.com/t/UeBGkaYuundl, and select the element you want to edit => https://www.screencast.com/t/3vhZ5v4k and change the description.
The same steps are for all templates -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/footer-templates/
Our theme is a frontend theme for most of the elements and changes, you’ll need to use the tagDiv Composer to edit the pages and templates for posts/categories, etc => https://i.imgur.com/I3OUYxr.jpg -> https://i.imgur.com/mMrEufY.jpg from the frontend, no in the code -> https://www.screencast.com/t/LDdokrHPl
Also, this is a video on how to change the logo -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HXQQygkCCJo -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/add-logo-newspaper/
The theme accent color it only applies to certain elements, for example, to back to top button.You can copy and paste the style from one block to another.
You can use the Global Colors and fonts option from Manager -> Global Colors -> https://i.imgur.com/PM6VoBL.png
More documentation about the cloud templates is here:

Hello, what are the cache plugins compatible with the theme? wp super cache and autoptimize?
I followed the guides to configure but I had to uncheck “Concatenate JS files?
Aggregate all linked JS files to load without render blocking?” otherwise my background image won’t show.
The theme has no internal caching system?
Hello,
You can’t translate the tagDiv Composer, the elements, and the blocks from this plugin.
You can translate the website if you referring to that -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/

Hello,
We tried using Flex Block 1, but still no luck. However, when we inactivate the cache plugin, it works.
I believe Cache plugin is causing the issue, but still can you please help me to troubleshoot the issue.
Thank you.
Hello,
1. I think the problem is caused by the plugin cache; Also, you can try to use Flex Block 1 and check after.
2. Also, our theme uses the WordPress search function, and we made a few changes only for the live search. By default, those will display all posts and pages that contain the word/words you are looking for in the title or post content, but if those words are not in the content, then will not display content about that category, for example. Also, for Header live search you can set taxonomy in search -> https://i.imgur.com/ghBBwHr.png
Thank you!
Additional Details:
1. Using Flex Block-X
2. Setting as in the screenshot – https://prnt.sc/FDD3QcGIqnij

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

Hi,
Our theme offers the flexibility for the flex blocks to choose the thumb that will be used – https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ now the most recommended will be to use a size like 696×0 this means that our theme will make a thumb for that image that will be display nice.
Also, you can adjust the image on thumb using the settings from the block – https://i.imgur.com/xXHzJv0.png
Thank you!
Hello,
For mobile theme version to remove the author name on the blocks, please go in Theme Panel -> Block Settings -> Meta Info on modules/blocks and disable the author => https://www.screencast.com/t/5w5CxkcU

Hello,
Please let the offset filed empty without any value.
Also, please check the tag template to don’t have set there an offset on the blocks.
