Hello,
You can only create a custom block using the theme api, but you do not have to since the latest theme implementation. You can use one of 3 flex blocks in the tagdiv composer which allow you to create blocks with the layout you need. https://www.screencast.com/t/vzbROThbyy
The flex block is a powerful custom block builder.
Thank you!
Hi,
The category pages will display latest posts on initial loading, that cannot be changed. Uses can sort the posts if needed using the filter
– https://www.screencast.com/t/5H6nQLOC8
Al oldest posts sorting does not exist for that filter at the moment. Only blocks and grids would have an oldest setting.
Maybe you could design category templates with the Cloud library plugin and the tagDiv composer and use blocks and grids sorted by oldest instead of the category top grid.

Thanks
Thanks!
In the earlier reply, I saw this
5. All modules have general options to control excerpt length
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/excerpts-introduction/
After the latest update they can be configured in the composer as well, individually
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6lszUIeL
But not all modules have options to control excerpt length, i wonder why/ It would be really helpful if that could be done. Could you share some codes that can do this??
Now i used block. I want 2 column of page on mobile.
How to edit code or setting for responsive?
Please help.
Thank you.
I really want to love this theme but there seems to be so many limitations to achieving what I want our site to look like. Questions/problems below
1. We are currently using Big Grid Full 3 for our feature stories. At first, there was a gradient over the blocks that I didn’t look as it made the images appear dark. I removed the gradient, but now the white text blends in with most of our images so I’m left with trying to find darker images for the white text. I need to know how to achieve the following:
3 full blocks across the top of the page that will allow clear photos and either black text OR the text underneath the grid. Here is the link to our site for reference: https://www.crushmagazineonline.com/
How can I achieve this?
Also, are there future updates planned that will allow users to choose a font color?
2. How can I add a full size video to the homepage?
3. Is it possible to create the big block similar to the block on this site: https://www.womenshealthmag.com/. I am not trying to create the exact block but I do like how the article title is positioned on the box.
Thanks in advance for your help.
is there anyway to customize the Next and Previous Ajax pagination on blocks
like the colour and size and icons on it???
The Font of the Title can be changed here

or individually for every Block by itself at the tdcomposer builder:

What is shown on the blocks in dependence of your used blocks:
Here you can take a look of all kind of blocks are out there:
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/

You can’t change some specified things without change some code if it isn’t in the block at the beginning, as i now.
Im also just a consumer 🙂

Hi
I finished setting up the flex block how I want it, but I’ve just noticed it is not mobile responsive. For example, I’m using flex block 1 with 4 modules per row. Can I get it to show 1 module per row on a mobile device?
Thanks
Hi again
I downloaded 8.7 and used a flex block. Problem solved!
Thanks
Hello!
If I use a block that contains more than one post, is it possible to set a border around each post (as opposed to the whole block)?
Thanks
Hi,
thanks for the answer.
We are not using a demo, but yes, we are using some custom css:
.td-main-content-wrap .td-a-rec{
display: block; !important
}
.td-page-title{
display:none;
}
.wpb_wrapper ul li {
font-size: 18px;
}
.td-category-description {
font-size: 18px;
line-height: 28px;
}
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-header-top-menu-full,
.td-header-sp-top-menu {
display: block!important;
text-align: center;
}}
Unfortunately, I do not know much about it, it has been added to modify an ad from rental cars that did not display properly and to modify the bullet point list fonts. This was added by somebody who no longer works for us.
I do not know about any modification to the theme files.
Thank you very much,
many greetings
Thanks for the reply, I did what you suggested and deleted teh block of code customizing the menu but nothing has changed? I even tried to simply change the colour code from black to something else but still nothing changed?
That definately the css which effects it?

Hi,
Moving those may break your website from what I can find online, you could give it a try however. Here are some similar topics

Hi,
The scroll to top icon uses the color set as the theme accent color
– https://www.screencast.com/t/QTDHCh3nGQn
For block titles you can use any color you want, per block

Let us know if you have more questions.

Hello,
I have been using autoptimize to move the scripts to footer and it solved all the issues except one.
wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js
How do i solve this one?

Hi,
What exactly do you mean by first? If you mean oldest, the blocks have an oldest sorting
– https://www.screencast.com/t/XoQ5QZbEUq
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
You can use any sorting you want from the available ones, for each block or grid. Let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,
is it possible to switch to the mobile menu as soon as the normal menu expands to two rows, which happens on an upright held iPad? I don’t like the way it looks with two rows. I already tried to reduce font size but that doesn’t look good either.
Is it also possible to change the block used in a sidebar when using a mobile device? I would like to use block 7 on the desktop, but block 9 on mobile devices, because the sidebar is too similar to the content of the page and there is no longer sufficient visual delimitation. Is it possible to change the block or does the look of block 9 have to be imitated via CSS?
Hi,
That is unusual, I could give you a code to fix it however
– https://www.screencast.com/t/WvBryVwnb
The code can be entered in Theme panel->Custom CSS section
.td-ss-main-sidebar .td_block_text_with_title {
margin: auto;
}
Thanks
No changes made. Is not a cache issue.
Check bottom of this page, I just created the same (but different block) to show top 8 posts…still only shows six:
https://smallcaps.com.au/about/
I suspect it is due to many of my pages now getting more traffic than posts and this will continue.
How does the popular posts search for the top posts?
Does it only search from this widget:
https://imgur.com/a/YurBtZd
If so, only 6 from the top 10 are posts, the other 4 are pages.
Meaning the parameters the filter searches need to be increased to search the top 20 (posts and pages), instead of just top 10?
Hi,
I can’t actually test that on my end at the moment, it should work the same as before however. Maybe you made some changes in the plugin?
The block seems to be limited as you say to 8 posts, but it only finds 6 from what I can see
– https://www.screencast.com/t/arvovmzQ
Try creating a new page as a test, place a block with that sorting in it and see how many posts it displays. Also try to clear your cache.
Thanks
Hi,
So maybe you are referring to blocks and grids. You can use the single category filter if you want
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6IavTfxqr7
By using the single category filter, the block will only show posts for that category.
Or the multiple category filter – https://www.screencast.com/t/CtoQIkzZ
This filtering will display posts from the categories you entered there (by ID).
A block settings guide here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
If this is not what you mean by boxes, more details would be helpful.
Thanks
Hi,
First of all note that this sorting option will not work with caching
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/
If you don’t use caching, then it would work. First activate the setting in the theme panel as the guide suggests. Choose the sorting method for the elements you want. Make sure post views are active
– https://www.screencast.com/t/fnznXYDJ2
The moment you activate the theme panel 7 days setting, the count will begin. Posts with most views will be displayed in the block. Check if the post view count works, each time the post page is refreshed for example, the views should increase.
Thanks
