Hi,
Grids don’t show the excerpt of posts, only blocks (not all of them however). For grids and the blocks that don’t show the excerpt, this can’t be enabled with CSS.
However there are many types of blocks that you can use, such as the predefined types
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
Use the top switcher to see them all – http://prntscr.com/nsbeya
Some of these will show the excerpt, so you could use one that does.
Besides the predefined blocks there are also flex blocks, these are highly customizable blocks. Here are some examples created by us – https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Blocks each one can be imported through the cloud library plugin provided with the theme
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
You can design your own flex blocks as well, as you want.
So the best way is to use different types of blocks, ones that show the excerpt. But grids can’t show excerpts unfortunately, they are not supposed to.
Thanks
Hello,
Before latest update, I was using a custom block with custom logic (not available with flex block).
Now it doesn’t work as the oldest api plugin is not used anymore.
I checked the new creative plugin, but I don’t understand how I can add a filter tab to my custom block ?
My old syntax was something like this :
td_config::get_map_filter_array(),
td_config::get_map_block_ajax_filter_array(),
td_config_helper::block_font(),
td_config_helper::module_110_font(),
td_config::get_map_block_pagination_array()
How can I get the same result with the new plugin ?
Thanks !
Hi,
I could give you a code to make all 4 of them in one row, something like this should work
– http://prntscr.com/nu8uep
So configure the social counter to display 4 socials, then enter this code in the theme panel custom CSS section
.home .td_block_social_counter.td-social-style5 .td_social_type {
width:25%;
}
It will make space for the social counter – http://prntscr.com/nu8vkq
Thanks
Hello,
I am facing issues when I am using the video block:
1- when I make it is full raw it come with a space in the middle,
when I add another column, it only allows the horizontal view ( I would like the video list to stay to the right).
there is little to no control to this block, how can I fix those issues?

Hello,
I have noticed that we are unable to filter custom post by category or tags ( I hope this can be solved in the future as you have a greate theme, and this is really needed), however, is it possible to show only custom post from some categories in the blocks?
Thanks,
Hello,
I have followed all required requests and suggestions and I unblocked the admin-ajax.php with my go daddy hosting.
However, I am still seeing this issue.
I am not sure what to do at this point. My website has been down for maintenance since Thursday and it is now Monday.
I unblocked admin-Ajax.php
I increased my WP memory limit, I unplugged all plugins to see if that could be the issue.
I’m kind of at a loss here on what else to do at this point.
Hi Simon.
I’m pretty sure it does.
I accomplished my goal by temporarily hard coding the td-composer module file.
This is what I want for my homepage: https://prnt.sc/nu0fle
I order to achieve that goal, I generated a page using the Default Template
and I used the Flex Block 1
I want the posts to have the category filter, using Ajax to filter posts.
Here you see where I inserted the div wrapper with the function from the external plugin that renders the “post reactions” where users can interact (as you’ll see on the previous screenshot): https://prnt.sc/nu0iey
I would like to ask for this favor.
I’m sure is not pretty much to ask:
Can you please generate for me a td-api-plugin.zip where I can customize the td_module_flex_1??
As a module, and also as a block…
I know it’s not within your scope of support to do my job (as a developer)…
BUT
since I would like to work with THAT specific block
I’m almost certain that you’ll find pretty accessible and at your disposal
compiling a plugin for me
with just this module & block…
for me to customize… 🙂
Thanks in advanced!
Okay, got it – thanks!
One more question: how can I apply a custom css file within the plugin. It doesn’t work anymore with this description: https://forum.tagdiv.com/practical-example-how-to-add-a-new-block-and-module/
static function td_plugin_frontend_css() {
wp_enqueue_style('td-plugin-framework', plugins_url('', __FILE__) . '/css/style.css'); // frontend css (wp_enqueue_scripts)
}Thanks!
EDIT:
Sorry, my bad. Didn’t transfer the add_action to enqueue the script…
Hi,
this question is regarding a design tweak on the homepage.
By default there is a white space between the main menu and the first content block (directly under the main menu and directly above the first content block “Big Grid” on the homepage).
How can I remove this white space in TagDiv Composer? I cannot figure out the element that I have to eddit in TagDiv Composer.
This is my website: http://www.bikepacking-adventures.com (please notive the white space) and this page has removed the white space http://www.tactical.com. I want to achive a similar style.
Thank you for your help
Best regards
Michael
Hi,
That plugin cannot be used anymore since update 9.7, it has been replaced by a new plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/developer-info/
You could use this plugin from now on. Or experiment with flex blocks, maybe what it used to be possible only with the api plugin, it is now possible with flex blocks and grids
– https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-flex-block-elements/
– https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-big-grid-flex-elements/
Thanks
Hi,
You can try this custom css -> https://www.screencast.com/t/dTqQm3eqWcF
.td_top_authors .td_mod_wrap{
width: 33.3%;
display: inline-block;
margin-top: 24px;
}
.td_top_authors.td_top_authors img {
position: relative;
float: left;
}
Set the code in Theme panel>Custom code>Custom css.
Thank you!
Hi,
The mobile version is look like that because you have the mobile theme plugin that provide you a better speed then responsive version of theme, but in order to achieve that speed you’ll need to create a new content for pages because in the most of cases those were made with builders ( tagDiv Composer, WPBakery ) and you need to use only the mobile editor ( you need to set the content for pages in mobile editor and this content will be display on mobile theme)
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/ebUIzt4se
Mobile Theme: Automatic Optimization for Mobile with Newspaper Theme -> https://tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-automatic-optimization-for-mobile-newspaper-theme/
Also for the 3 blocks, you’ll need to have set same feature posts (that have set feature category) -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/ -> https://www.screencast.com/t/QsJ6ppY4
If you want the responsive version and amp you should use this opinion -> https://www.screencast.com/t/jZct5ueBqOrb but if you have amp activate on pages you’ll need to create in Mobile editor a content for AMP version of page.
Let me know if you have more questions!
Hi,
1)You need to use the code below and place it in Theme panel -> Custom CSS area. The code is below ->
ul.sf-menu > .td-menu-item > a, .td-theme-wrap .td-header-menu-social{
text-transform: capitalize;
}
2)If you want to create a new Widget you need to do it from Theme panel, from here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/5Pz6odRdX8 and the Widget will appear on Widgets section and then you can use it everywhere into your website. Also, you can use the TD Composer, Widget Sidebar to display your widgets on the page.
3)If you are referring to the Widgets section, please notice that the theme does not have any kind of preview to your blocks elements. You need to check the demo, for example, if you know how the block looks like. -> https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
4)You can try using the Header Manager which allows you to customize your header as you wish, using the TD Composer. For more details about this functionality, please check here -> https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-customize-the-header-manager/
Thank you!
Where is the module and block file in Newsmag latest?
Hello,
I’ve updated my site’s Newspaper theme to v9.75 as well as all plugins and WP. The included WPBakery Page Builder plugin v.5.7 is installed and visible in ‘Edit Page’ view.
Even with all non-Newspaper plugins turned off my website home page layout is jumbled and some secondary pages are blank. See original, pre-update site here; Marketwisetrader.com. The post update, development clone updated version is here; //mkdv.meta-morphos.es
The WPBakery post page layouts seems to have survived. Secondary pages for ‘Store’, are blank whether WooCommerce plugin is on or off.
I built the site’s page layouts using WPBakery Page Builder. When I now view the page layouts back end view with WPBakery selected, the row and collum layouts with blocks looks correct. When I preview the same pages however, image sizing is off, and row/collum and block location is out of order.
Could you view this and suggest how I can correct this?
Will the back end editor, WPBakery be phased out in the future?
Will there be a problem in the future if some pages are ‘legacy’ having been built with WPBakery, and others built from front end with TagDiv Composer?
Thanks,
Lon K

Hi!
After updating the Theme to version 9.7.2, the solution from this topic no longer works:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/authors-boxwidgets-how-to-limit-the-authors-list/#post-122194
because there is no file in the Theme:
\includes\shortcodes\td_block_authors.php
How and where to change the code if I want to display only ten (Top-10) authors (authors by post count)?
Live example: http://handmade39.ru/author/chepikova/
Thank you!
Hi,
I just installed the newspaper theme and the tried to import the Default demo.
I got this message:
tagDiv importer detected an error. The importer will try to recover and continue to install the demo after you click ok on this dialog.
Steps to troubleshoot:
– Check the permissions on your upload folder
– Please make sure that WP_DEBUG is set to false in wp-config.php
– Contact our support via email contact@tagdiv.com (please provide your product license key)
I checked the permissions:
WP_DEBUG is set to false:
After I click OK the error appeared a second time. Then the import finished.
This was a brandnew test side – fresh WP install and only the default WP theme – no settings changed or anything.
Any ideas?

You cannot edit the blocks. To find a full list about it you can go to http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper and search all the features like here: https://www.screencast.com/t/jGErQ7AI9
You can customize them a bit using the features that come with it: https://www.screencast.com/t/0ykqWRvO
Thank you !
Hi,
This can be a plugin conflict, please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict, please deactivate all non theme plugins, also if you are using child theme or cache plugin, please deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.
Pleas go in Settings and re-save the permalinks -> https://www.screencast.com/t/QdofmGTW if this is not working, please go in one post and click on update ( or set some content in excerpt ), clear all cache and try again, also please try with some flex blocks!
Thank you!
