Hello, Previously My structured data review stars in your post options were showing on google but now appear to have all disappeared in google searches whereas my competitors are still there so it doesn’t appear to be something google has done. I have done some optimisations and updated the newspaper theme during that time but I don’t think that should have affected it. Please can you take a look and see whether you can figure out whether something is blocking it and how I can fix it. thanks
Hi,
If you are referring to this words from blocks then you can change only for internally text, sorry;
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello I want to change the name displayed on the Newsticker from Trending Now to something else.
Also change the name of some blocks which are in the screenshot in this link https://imgur.com/XJbOB2h to both three of them.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks Simion C.
I switch code to “echo do_shortcode(‘[td_block_big_grid_mob_1 category_id=”1″ sort=”featured”]’);”
But not work, not show. There was here a way to reverse this, to show all categories as it was before?
Thanks,
I even tried using other blocks /grid /Flex style but no luck. Please check

yes but this don’t resolve my problem…
first I don’t use both page builders on the same page!
First I can’t install Igossip if td composer is not installed and active… then I install and active it…
I install igossip and I’ve always the same error

ok I want yo start from here…
Why this error? Sysytem status is ok… no red alert
them, … sorry but your td composer I don’t understand it…
in addition to not being able to manage the contents well with your composer I can not even delete the block with the error.
once selected there is no trash icon and then I get error warning on the screen and crashes everything.
So I’m stuck on this problem for days and I do not understand if it is possible to use another page builder for the home easier for me.
last test I did was to go back to wp 4.9 and reinstall everything … but nothing … the error is there …
Hello
My Website : http://www.jogging-plus.com
Server PHP version : 7.1
Newspaper 9.5 (but the problem exists since several weeks)
Regurlarly (it occured 2 times today, 1 time yesterday and 1 time last week-end) all my theme options are erased (theme fonts, theme colors, logo URL, Ads options, analytics code, categories options, thumbnail, post settings, block settings, licence code, etc.)
So I have to reset them in the theme panel.
Where this problem could come from ???
Thank you very much for your help, I dont know what to do 🙁

Hello. I realize that you can change the color of an entire text block, particularly in a blog post. But is it possible to change the color of one or two words within a text block easily? without having to go into the HTML coding to accomplish it?
If so, how do you do it?
Thanks,
Rich
Hi everybody,
I’m making website with Newsmag V 4.7 installed. The Thumbs looks really bad on retina monitors – https://best-cooking-grill.com/cooking-grill-reviews/
For example, small thumb for retina: https://best-cooking-grill.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/2-char-broil-patio-bistro-infrared-gas-grill-1-200×150.jpg
Only Homepage looks really good, because I use tagDiv Composer.
I tried everything. I thing, it is not plugins conflict – I have active plugins: Yoast SEO, Classic Editor, tagDiv Composer, Regenerate Thumbnails. I have enabled the following option for Retina images from Theme panel -> BLOCK SETTINGS -> Thumbs on Modules/Blocks, and used regenerate plugin without any luckwithout any luck.
Can you help me?
Thanks,
Alina
Hi,
Please note that homepage is build wit TagDiv Composer and if you are using Visual composer the can be break
Also if the problem is just the strange looking of image please check this documentation: -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
You could use a flex block, these blocks have settings to customize the image height and width – http://prntscr.com/mhx0de
So you can achieve better results in this case.
Here you can see block designs made by us (you can preview and even edit them to see how they are made), each can be imported through the cloud library plugin
– https://affiliate.tagdiv.com/#/load/Blocks
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
Thanks
Hi,
Indeed, the theme will create I believe a total of 19 thumbnail sizes and WordPress will generate 3 sizes. The theme will use these thumbnails in blocks, grids and other modules
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
For each thumbnail size it will be specified where it is used, for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/2Y8RGxoc
So depending on what elements you do not use, disable the thumbnail sizes accordingly.
After you disable sizes, from then on they will not be generated anymore. Previously created thumbnails will remain, unless maybe you use the force regenerate plugin
– https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/
Thanks
Hi,
The respective plugin doesn’t have to be active permanently. It has to be used for the content previously created in the website, before the theme was installed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
After the theme is installed it will automatically create thumbnails
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
You can remove the plugin after regenerating, no need for it anymore.
Thanks
Hi Lucas Lynch,
That demo use a cloud template for post, you’ll need to edit that template ( from cloud template or from post ); for example if you are on the post, just click on edit template -> https://www.screencast.com/t/6spFPzna7y -> https://www.screencast.com/t/PX1dmFmK after that save the changes and check the post again -> https://www.screencast.com/t/I8m5dffOvWF
Also if you want to change the category “tag” color on blocks those options are available only on flex blocks -> https://www.screencast.com/t/093GsFvO
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/IP1MyRAKoTx
If you want to change the category background color for others blocks you can use custom css -> https://www.screencast.com/t/FLJZl5suEM2
Thank you!
Hi,
By default pages cannot have tags and categories, only post can. The theme blocks can display posts and pages, but only the posts can be filtered by categories and tags, the theme will not recognize the categories set for pages even if these are added by various means.
The slide can show pages just like any other block or grid – http://prntscr.com/mhuk9r
You could enter specific page IDs in the ID filter to show specific pages. Pages can have featured images and these will be displayed in the theme modules.
Thanks
1. I use the standard template for the homepage. My picture is displayed on the front page of each article. ok
https://imgur.com/a/jxsIBWn
2. When introducing a Carousel Block from Visual composer, the photos on the homepage of the article do not appear anymore.
https://imgur.com/a/VTcaN24
3. When introducing a Carousel Block from Visual composer, the photos on the first page of the article appear only if I have a scroll button (left-right) for that category. Otherwise the hidden picture remains.
https://imgur.com/a/Ce1Qidq
4. If I delete the Carousel Block, everything returns to normal.
Yes I deletes, but that’s not right now, it doesn’t make sense to create a category specifies “featured” and put posts on it to display the latest posts in mobile home.
It would be more simple we can create a custom block to put on the home so as we have in desktop.
You should give the option, or consider creating the category featured and put it as superior to another category, where she picks up the posts.
How can I revert this update?
Thanks,
Hi,
1. Please make sure when you set the logo that you set the size of image for full size
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/m9R0TjVj
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/YvKdOVFZVq
2. Please check if you do not have set as footer a page, if is so is possible that page to be empty -> https://www.screencast.com/t/pjMpiwTjM if you want to use a default footer set the footer page on no page -> https://www.screencast.com/t/qzmK0llM
3. The avatar of author will look like this ( but your user do not have set an avatar ), so if you want to remove it you’ll need to edit the page with tagDiv Composer
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/UKECnuo5job click on avatar image -> https://www.screencast.com/t/sLFQ10AghzH then you’ll see that is a flex block 1 click on layout and scroll down until author section and unchecked the show author photo -> https://www.screencast.com/t/rFR57Kmvm after that save the page.
Hope this will help you better!
Thanks.
maybe they missed out on adding the option on enabling it so there will be 9.5.1?
That’s a big mistake in a so-called Big Update if this is true. They hyped the update to feature autoload and no option, no official guide for it. Wow!
I noticed that tagdiv only focused on increasing customers and theme look/design. Instead of doing that if they focus on theme users and visitors basic need and engagement, that will be great. Obviously, the theme needs look and design but tagdiv themes are becoming bulky with so many unnecessary options without simple/useful features.
1. Last Updated option for single post
2. Total Share count in single post
3. The views count displays in numerical format only. It should be like 10K, not 10000.
4. Main menu background gradient color. (Currently, they provided custom code, but not officially implemented)
5. Which posts are mostly viewed or trending (indicates a flash/AMP like icon) feature missing. So, the visitors can engage with trending posts automatically.
6. Alert Message box in the post/page content (Tips/Info/Warning/Success) missing
7. The text highlight feature doesn’t cover the full border area like a separate paragraph. Which looks ugly and not justified aligned as well.
8. No Pros and Cons section for reviews. You have to manually set a good/bad column. That’s poor.
9. No product price, where to buy link, shop link, shop logo icon for the review section. These points should be added in a box format.
10. Enable post-split option in the text editor with different styles in an easy way. The current option is slightly messy.
11. Add truncated mobile or tablet article option with ‘continue reading’ tag to load faster and engage more visitors.
12. Make your social share option for single post more lightning fast. Sometimes it takes time to load even after full article load.
13. Kindly add default ‘Inline Related Posts’ option with nav bar (2 posts at least)
As a user or a well-wisher, these mentioned points are really useful for all. Even after having 70k+ customers, the tagdiv team not focusing on actual need. We don’t need hundreds of templates, libraries if they don’t come in handy.
For more details, If I failed to explain properly, check the JNews Theme for once. I’m using the theme for another site. It’s extremely fast to load in any device. It has Fewer features in terms of the Tagdiv themes but very accurate with the important things. Then you guys can only understand what’s missing actually. Take your time and improve your theme. There is no hurry. But don’t do these things in the name of a big update.
One way of doing it is like this, first an empty row with a background image set and some padding (set the padding values as you want)
– http://prntscr.com/mhqr1t
Then add another row below it, and set a negative margin top to it (I used -150px you can use the value you want) – http://prntscr.com/mhqrst
In that second row I recommend to use a flex block which has more settings, and a similar design like the demo can be achieved with it
– http://prntscr.com/mhqse9 – http://prntscr.com/mhqsk6
You can customize the flex block in many ways further, it has many options. In the demo block 5 is used with additional CSS, but the same can be resulted with a flex block.
for 9.5 Version file documents,
-> Newspaper-tf > Code > td-api-plugin
This plugin, easist way created new block and module.
[td-api-plugin]
– is a sample plugin that uses the theme api to add a new module, a new block. This plugin is a very good starting point if you wish to add your own modules or just modify a block / module from the theme.
– the new module can be used on loops
– the new block appears in visual composer
– the theme api documentation is here: http://forum.tagdiv.com/the-theme-api/

Hi. To what extent can the child-theme be used? … I try to create custom blocks through td_config.php, custom functions through td_module.php in the child-theme and none of this has any effect. Always look in the parent-theme. Any ideas on this? Any ideas on how to create the styles so that in the td_composer mode, playing something from the iframe.css (in the rd composer plugin), you see the blocks live something similar to how it will look in the final edition? Any ideas about this? Thank you!
Hi,
Please replace the above code with this one
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-header-top-menu,
.td-header-top-menu-full,
.td-header-sp-top-menu {
display: block!important;
text-align: center;
}
}
@media (max-width: 1140px){
.td-header-menu-social {
display: inline-flex!important;
}
}
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-social-icon-wrap {
display: inline-flex!important;
}
}
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/S8FQTEXqQ
Hope this will work better!
Thanks.
….Stay tuned to our blog as a tutorial about this feature will be published soon…..
Newspaper Theme 9.5 Update: What’s new in the Newspaper Theme
Hello,
“– All rows and columns have width settings. So in page and cloud templates where you can use the tagDiv composer, you can have custom widths.”
Yes in PAGE, not in POST
“- Regarding this gutter, I don’t exactly understand what it is supposed to do.”

“– The post title in cloud templates has padding and margin settings, all elements in the tagDiv composer have this in the CSS tab”
Yes in PAGE, not in POST
“– Regarding the reviews, you could create a review … Most if not all the elements can be saved once configured and re-used.”
Yes in PAGE, not in POST
“– For what element would you like to chnage the image size? Maybe there is a way.”
If I change the Content/Sidebar ratio to 75%/25% and the container width like this
.td-container{width:1114px !important;}
.td-pb-span8{width:75% !important;}
.td-pb-span4{width:25% !important;}
like you take a pre-sized image as Featured Image, this one will not have the correct width so I will need a new Featured Image size to fit the new content div size.
And I cannot use a CSS resizing because the Featured Image selected is smaller than the new content width, so it’s will be an enlargement CSS resizing who always provide a blurry outcome
“There are plans to add a scrollbar to the composer element list in coming updates.”
Great !! Thanks a lot, that will be very appreciated 😉
“The theme has predefined ad spots …”
Really you need to make a little survey of your competitors about that, your Ads system is really outdated and inefficient.
-No shortcode ad
-No default ad per category
-No Post ad override
-No Campaigns manager
-No Banners manager
-No Ad Blockers Fallback
“While the theme is compatible with the Woocommerce plugin, it doesn’t have specific settings for it like other themes that are built with this in mind. If you want to set up a shop and have questions let me know.”
I do not ask to Newspaper to be like Porto or Flatsome but some templates for it will be welcome. Do not forget that not all Newspaper build a website for the glory, they want also make money. It’s a little annoying to add a lot of “add_action” and “add_filter” into the functions.php just for some Woocommerce customisation.
Newspaper is real good theme, I like the Demos, his stability, but in one year I do not notice a significative evolution of his functionalities.
-No Header builder.
-No Footer builder.
-A non interactive Reviews system (readers can’t write their own reviews).
-A outdated Ad system.
-No Social Media Auto Publish.
-A complicated way to add Custom Posts.
-No dissociation between Custom Posts and Taxonomies.
-No Featured Image thumbnail in the POST list.
-No Smart Thumbnail Generator (choose the point of interest of the image).
Ok we can do all that with external plugins, but as you know more external plugins you have, more bugs you get. All this functions build by the Theme builder will work better than external ones.
Your builder is great but we do not build a new PAGE everyday, but POSTS !
Best Regards
Nexus
