Thank you !
Hello
I have created a custom post type (example: program) and a custom taxonomy (example: type_program). Can I filter both in blocks or grids? What can you recommend?
Best regards

I need a way to change the header template, so that, I can add a custom block of HTML with PHP and design it from code. Knowing that I tried to code my own header design and tagDiv composer is overriding it.
I found this snippet of code in wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/shortcodes/single/tdb_single_next_previous.php.
It seems to control the next and previous posts for any single post template that has been opened by TD-Composer. If you use the untouched template, the technique mentioned above works for me. But when I switch to a custom template, it starts showing next and previous based on date, regardless of category.
It there a way to edit this code below to make it stay within its category for next and previous posts?
I’d really appreciate any help.
function render( $atts, $content = null ) {
parent::render( $atts ); // sets the live atts, $this->atts, $this->block_uid, $this->td_query (it runs the query)
global $tdb_state_single;
$post_next_prev_data = $tdb_state_single->post_next_prev->__invoke();
$prev_post = !empty( $post_next_prev_data[‘prev_post_url’] ) ? true : false;
$next_post = !empty( $post_next_prev_data[‘next_post_url’] ) ? true : false;
$buffy = ”;
if( $prev_post || $next_post ) {
$post_next_prev_data[‘prev_post_title’] = empty( $post_next_prev_data[‘prev_post_title’] ) ? ” : $post_next_prev_data[‘prev_post_title’];
$post_next_prev_data[‘next_post_title’] = empty( $post_next_prev_data[‘next_post_title’] ) ? ” : $post_next_prev_data[‘next_post_title’];
Hello
I need to filter the child pages of a main page. I can not find the way to do it with blocks or grids. Is there a way or option? What do you suggest me?

Hi guys,
I need to know which might be the best way to add a shortcode/Raw Html/php function to Posts LOOP inside blocks added via tagDiv
It’s for the implementation of DW Reactions Pro – WordPress Plugin
It’s documentations says:
MANUALLY INSERT INTO YOUR THEME.
1. Open wp-content/themes/<Your theme folder>/.
2. You may place it in archive.php, single.php, post.php or page.php also.
3. Find <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>.
4. Add anywhere below it (The place you want Reactions to show): <?php if (function_exists(‘dw_reactions’)) { dw_reactions(); } ?>.
INSERT USING SHORTCODE
If you DO NOT want the reactions to appear in every post/page, DO NOT use the code above. Just type in [reactions] into the selected post/page and it will embed reactions into that post/page only.
If you to use reactions button for specific post/page you can use this short code [reactions id=”1″], where 1 is the ID of the post/page.
If you want to show reactions button you can use [reactions count=false button=true].
If you want to show reactions count you can use [reactions count=true button=false].
If you to use reactions button for specific style you can use this short code [reactions style=1], where 1 is the ID of the style.
Before the update I was able to show 5 images across the mega menu through amending the td_block_mega_menu with ‘limit’ => 5 and removing the subcategory menu with css.
However, since the update, it seems the only way to have 5 across is to remove the sub-categories from the menu. With sub-categories it shows 4 images across with a space on the far right that is blank.
Your help would be appreciated.
we’ve tried a lot of things… we’ve made a copy of the site here
https://staging2.ekreator.hr
We’ve updated the main theme and turned off the child theme (all the changes are in the child theme) and turn off non essential plugins… so bare bones portal.
We have 3 depths of categories but only want to see first 2, so on the main site (let just focus on the “blog” top category) you only see few categories.
When we use a lot of subcategories (because we aggregate sites) is where the problem arises.
The modification that we did was hiding the deepest category from menu upped the limit, but we only found that for the “mega menu” on this location:
includes/shortcodes/td_block_mega_menu.php
But now we have a problem for the “mobile menu” that we can’t seem to find where to up the limit.
This is a summarry of the problem, if you need more, in depth problem clarification, I can do it with videos and screenshots if you need.
Thanks
So you mentioned a Flex Block 2 will help what I want as an outcome.
That block is part of NewsPaper. I currently have newsMag.
Can I achieve the same with newsMag?
Hi,
Posts can be displayed in pages using blocks and grids mostly. There are many types of blocks and grids that you can use, such as the predefined types
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/full-big-grid-1/
Use the top switcher to see them all – http://prntscr.com/nsbeya
And the flex types – http://prntscr.com/nsbbez – https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/flex-block/
Flex blocks and grids have many customization options opposed to predefined blocks. These 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/
But you can design your own flex blocks as well.
Each block and grid has filtering and sorting options, useful when you want to choose which posts appear and where – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
So you can create pages and edit them with the tagDiv composer, place the elements you want in them to display your posts, configured as needed
– https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-page-builder-basics/
One of the pages you create can be set as homepage – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/
If you have more questions, let me know.
Thanks
Hi,
If a reply hasn’t been made up to this point, then the mail must have ended in the spam folder for some reason, this happens sometimes. Sorry for the inconvenience.
We try to reply within 24hrs, excepting periods when there is a high volume of support.
Seems I forgot to mention this before, please check if the unique articles option is enabled for the pages – https://forum.tagdiv.com/unique-articles/
This will most likely create duplicates when combined with block pagination.
If the option is disabled, then the problem is elsewhere. Please resend the email, and we will investigate. Sorry again for the inconvenience.
Hi,
So the problem is with the booster. Such problems can happen. The booster can cause problems with various plugins, most speed booster plugins or render blocking plugins can potentially cause problems.
Maybe try some other render blocking plugins (try free plugins if possible), which have more options, and make tests with them. Here are some topics

does it has anything to do with the block 1,2,3 in the arrpeance->widget? how can I edit those blocks?
Hi,
Blocks can by default sort posts by highest rated, but not by a specified period of time.
Modules that form blocks and grids will display only the meta they are supposed to, what is defined in their code. You have to edit the module if you want to display additional data in it.
The module files are now in the tagDiv composer plugin (after update 9.7). Block 9 uses module 8 – http://prntscr.com/ns8gb0
A somewhat similar topic here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/add-additional-fields-to-posts-in-category-grid/
Thanks
Hello !
You can add a block from the element tab in the tagDiv Composer and you can set it up like here: https://www.screencast.com/t/Lpm4N2E7gwI ; https://www.screencast.com/t/Lpm4N2E7gwI
Thank you !
Hello !
To have a block with those looks you can add a Flex Block 2 using the tagDiv Composer. Find out more tips and tricks about the composer here: https://www.screencast.com/t/5yGnEGMvY ; https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-page-builder-basics/
Thank you !
Hey all, got a weird one for you.
https://www.flashover.com.au/?page_id=9493&preview=true
Check out this page, that’s a cover image that seems to be hanging way over to the left out of the page. The same happens if I use a “text with image” block with Gutenberg. Any ideas?
Hi,
we would like to add a tagdiv block 9 widget to the sidebar, which will display the best reviewed posts form the past 8 weeks. The score is filled out in the back end via an ACF field called “score”.
We are now looking for a way to implement that number in addition to the metadata, where in block 9 we have the author and date.
I had alook in the /includes/shortcodes/td_block_9.php file but couldn’t find where to add my custom code, is there another place I need to be looking ? thanks
Hi all,
I’m not sure where it’s best to put in suggestions for new feature – however, i would love to see a native support for two major things in the nex Flex Block:
1st:
Allow user to set a custom date format for the Flex Block’s date-element like l - j. F 'y and so on. (Would allow us to fx list a weekday, which could be useful, in some cases – but we don’t what it all over out site)

2nd:
Allow article grouping by date.
Example:

Thank you, Calin! It turns out that the padding issue for the Big Flex block was in the column, not in the block itself, but thank you for the lead! Great theme!
Hi,
I am having problems with ‘Image Caption Text’ in the single post template 30.
The image caption in the post block editor is set to default ‘left’ align position. I would like to align ‘right’ but, unfortunately, Gutenberg doesn’t seem to allow align changes.
Also, when I go to ‘edit template’ in the Tagdiv editor, I cannot change the ‘Image Caption Text’ font or colour settings.
Any guidance will be much appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi,
Regarding the issue, note that the old API plugin will not work anymore. You can use the new creative plugin for this purpose – https://forum.tagdiv.com/developer-info/
But maybe what you are trying to do is possible without resorting to this plugin. The flex blocks have multiple options and settings and can be customized in many ways. You could use a flex block instead of adding new ones.
Please check this topic about the Newspaper v9.7 -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/important-new-update-newspaper-9-7/
TagDiv Cloud Library -> https://tagdiv.com/what-is-the-cloud-library/
Thanks.
With customisation the update process is somewhat painstaking.
Among other things, Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies are no longer working – even after rebuilding and references the tagDIV API documentation (which previously successfully allowed this).
• Is the API documentation current?
• What is the recommendation for getting Custom Post Types and Custom Taxonomies working in the 9.7 update? Following the API documentation – this is not being recognised in 9.7.
• What is the recommended process for identifying and installing any further files – Specifically, there are certain cross-references such as:
'used_on_blocks' => array('td_block_11', 'td_block_18'),
This refers to php in shortcodes however the entire shortcodes folder with contents was not part of the update. Is copying across from the old version the correct approach to restore or recreate?
Hi,
This can be achieve by making one post for each season, in this way the blocks, grids will show only the season and in this when you click on one season you’ll see only the episodes from that season, also each post will have a specific category, by clicking on that category you’ll see all posts from that category.
Thank you!
Hi,
With Gutenberg you will have to use the classic element, and create the quotes there
– http://prntscr.com/nrvm0a
Gutenberg itself doesn’t have many styling options for the quotes as far as I know
– https://gogutenberg.com/blocks/quote/
Or if you don’t want Gutenberg at all, simply install the classic editor plugin
– https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/
Thanks
