Hello jauburn,
Do you have more than 6 posts at your block? Provide your website URL so I can take a closer look at it.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
The blocks you add in sidebars for example, will show posts according to your chosen sorting
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
An automatic functionality like for example simply placing the block in the sidebar, and this will automatically display posts in relation to the currently viewed post is not available. Only the related articles section on the bottom of the post page has this purpose
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/related-articles/
Thanks
how can i limit the count of categories in the blocks, in the post header or on the archive pages? i run a wiki where a post can have 20 categories. this is too much for displaying in the post header or in the blocks. i want to switch from the publisher theme to newspaper but i need this option
Hi,
For the dropcaps please check this topic, there are some suggestions there
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-list-number-color/
Quotes can also be colored as you make them
– https://www.screencast.com/t/y4sB7txT0mIJ
Or all at once with a code, like this for example should work
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Q4BVx2dNXhv
.td-post-content blockquote p {
color: yellow;
}
Custom CSS code can be entered in the theme panel, more abut it here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
The theme offers a total of 5 stars for the reviews. There are three review options, stars, percentages and points. A preview of all in these posts

Hi,
The tagDiv composer can be used on pages, and as of update 8.8 can be used to create post templates with the Cloud library plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
So you can place in a post template anything you want that is available in the tagDiv composer.
Only blocks and a few other elements can be placed as widgets, not all of them.
Thanks
Hi,
Not all the block modules have a read more button, there is a list of them in this topic
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/remove-category-label-on-big-grid-slider/
The button is displayed automatically, the excerpt text can be customized as you want. So you could use blocks from that list. Or modify the module codes and add the button
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/adding-read-more-to-block-4/
Module files can be modified in the child theme as well.
Thanks
Hi,
On the homepage, I am adding the URL to the title of each block. I get success message. However it does not actually save.
No problems saving Titles using block in widget areas
Any Help appreciated?
Hi,
There will be more flex blocks added in the future, but I can’t say whether they will have such pagination. I will add this as a suggestion for them however.
Hello,
Please check this guide to remove the reviews from the blocks: https://forum.tagdiv.com/meta-info-modules-blocks/
Thank you!
For social sharing and general SEO we recommend the Yoast SEO plugin. Install and activate the Open Graph data
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/facebook-share/
For Twitter you can set up cards, more about that here
– https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-twitter-cards-in-wordpress/
– https://kb.yoast.com/kb/setting-up-twitter-cards-in-wordpress-seo/
– https://yoast.com/twitter-cards/
For the feed the theme does not have any actual settings, also there were’t many tests conducted. The theme and theme blocks/grids and other elements are designed to work with and display self published content, not import and display external content.
Hi,
I will help you if you have further questions, ask them here. The guide epickenyan mentioned along with the block settings guide would provide a basic knowledge of the composer
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thanks
Hi,
If you use a latest sorting then the published posts should be visible in the blocks and grids as soon as you publish them. I believe caching plugins should refresh/update the homepage as soon as a post is published.
You could try the same as suggested in this topic I found and check if the issue is fixed
– https://infoinspired.com/how-to-guides/how-to-refresh-your-wordpress-front-page-when-w3-total-cache-in-use/
Thanks
Hi,
Modules that form blocks and grids can only display predefined elements, like category tags (can be disabled for each module), author name, date, comment count, reviews. Some modules display excerpts as well (automatic excerpts or manually set). This is a module for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/OWFA45BtfkU8
If you want a module to display additional information this could only be done by modifying the module code, given the fact that it is possible in the first place.
Please correct me if I misunderstand what you are asking.
Thanks
Hi,
I can’t seem to get the smart side bar to appear on the homepage beside block 18.
There is an area for it that appears below the big grid full 6.
Can you please tell me how.
This is my site http://www.musicforlondon.co.uk
I have it as default and it appears on category and post just fine.
Many Thanks
Titus
Yes. Check the filter tab of the block you are using to show the posts and you will see an option to filter by categories (category filter http://i.prntscr.com/R_hGQtn0ROiBTIweIBsXFw.png). Select the category you want from that dropdown and update your changes.
Driving me crazy: Block 14: Load More button reloads the same posts as already displayed. If I have Limit Post Number to 6, it shows 6 posts. The Load More button shows the same 6 posts! Why?
Hi,
This is something that you addressed in a previous query on the forum, but I’m struggling to determine where to place the code you recommended at this link.

My authors want to have a hyperlink on each excerpts on the home page..
I tried with plugins, tried to edit functions.php ( I use child theme ! ) but no success.
Soon we will have multi-language magazine – and that makes this request more difficult – ‘cos “READ MORE>>>” also have to be translated…
tagdiv block 4
1
excerpt -read more link but especially on the home page – block 4, block 3
This tuto not works at the moment..:
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-display-a-read-more-link-in-wordpress-excerpts/
// Changing excerpt more
function new_excerpt_more($more) {
global $post;
return ‘… <a href=”‘. g
,et_permalink($post->ID) . ‘”>’ . ‘Read More »’ . ‘‘;
}
add_filter(‘excerpt_more’, ‘new_excerpt_more’);
Could you guys give me ideas how to make it?
this would be applies to home page only:
http://www.1000wordsmagazine.com
Thx, Zoltan
Hi,
I have been able to successfully embed Google maps in posts using the Editor role. I have an API key set up with google and I copy the iframe code below.
However when other Authors on my site try to embed the code below it doesn’t work. They add the text, it displays correctly in the visual editor, but when they save the draft the iframe code completely disappears. Authors mustn’t have the correct permissions to embed maps. I’ve verified this by changing one of my Authors to an Editor and suddenly it worked.
How can I give Authors permission to embed maps (using the code below) without having to make them into Editors? I don’t want them to have all the other permissions that come with being an Editor.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Post showing embedded map:
https://revesbyparents.com.au/2018/06/29/lambeth-reserve-picnic-point/
Code to embed the map:

tagDiv Composer stopped working.
If I want to add a new block, nothing happens. The block is not active.
Also, old blocks are not deleted. Gives an error message
Hi @simion. Is it possible for the team to introduce a few blocks (like say, have a flex block 4), with normal pagination (like in the templates for category pages for cloud library?) This would be a nice addition to the existing blocks. Possibly, I would like to deploy one for my homepage.
Hi TagDiv team,
I have Version 8.8 installed on my server and the front page takes an hour (or longer) to show the latest updates in the blocks. My host says W3 Total Cache is configured correctly and I’ve even removed Cloudflare to see if that was the issue, but it’s still doing it. Do you have any advice?
Hello dwarkapuria,
Notice that the Block 12 should look like this -> https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-12/ Ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme, use only required plugins, all the theme thumbs are enabled from Theme panel -> https://www.screencast.com/t/onwaRGVRX Try to regenerate the thumbnails using the Force Regenerate or Thumbnail Regenerate and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
The implementation is already added. Please check the styles tab for each block element in particular in the tagdiv composer. – https://www.screencast.com/t/PvcV8Evn
Thank you!
I’ve updated to Newspaper 8.8. My pages were created using Visual Composer – I am trying to recreate my Homepage with TagDiv composer. But I’m having a problem adding the sidebar on the right.
When making the new Homepage:
I add the Big Grid Slide for the top of the page.
I add the Block 11 for articles
I then trying adding the Layout that has the wide lines and the narrow lines (2/3 + 1/3) but then the Big Grid Slide disappears and I get this error message ‘Big Grid Slide must be in a ROW / 3 COLUMNS.’ When I switch the layout back to the wide lines (1/1) the Big Grid Slide reappears.
I’ve tried making the page in different ways but i just keep getting stuck. Can you help please?
