Hello – if I set excerpt length to the last word of a paragraph in the post content, the excerpt (in Flex Block 1 and perhaps everywhere else too) includes the (unwanted) first word of the next paragraph. Post template is Town Talk.
See here https://jazzjournal.co.uk “Obituary: Benny Golson”. 67 words selected in excerpt length field but 68 appear on page.
Here in video: https://app.screencast.com/yNHQ8IjTyre2X
Thanks

I have multiple CPTs. When I add a new blog, I select All Categories for the category filter. The problem is it won’t show anything for a CPT. If I define a post type in the filter, then naturally, it won’t show anything from any other post type. How can I display Everything in a block?
Hello,
In order to make them to look the same size, you’ll need to set an excerpt on title and post content like this -> https://i.imgur.com/o8UQm5B.png
Also, you can set the excerpt on words or letters from theme panel -> https://i.imgur.com/c7Q8ckX.png
Here is a similar topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/flex-block-1-and-same-blocks-height/
Thank you!
Hello – I have a author page – https://jazzjournal.co.uk/jazz-journal-contributors/ – listing our writers. I’d like it to look more stylish (in line with Town Talk that I have adapted) and to have the writers in alphabetical order across 3 columns. I cannot see how to do the latter, because no multi-column feature seems available. I have had to create 3 separate columns. I can order alphabetically in each column but not across 3 columns. Is there a template that would allow a continuous alphabetical flow across 3 columns? Or can I do something with a flex block to get this result?
Many thanks
Mark
Hello,
Please edit the cloud template with tagdiv Composer, select the block and in the tab layout, you can hide the date -> https://i.imgur.com/yPbW71x.png
Thank you!
Hello,
You have malware on the website. Please update to the latest version 12.6.8
If you want to update the theme, you should download the latest version of it from the Theme Forest account and download it.
I recommend that you update the theme manually https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ via FTP/cPanel/File Manager, also if possible disable extra plugins during the theme update to avoid any problems that may arise and make sure that you have activated the tagDiv Standard pack plugin to keep the website’s look. You can try to update the theme on a staging website.
After you update the theme, you need to update the theme plugins too.
In the worst cases, the settings in the theme panel may be lost (there have been isolated cases), in these cases, after the theme plugins that were previously used are activated, you will have to use a backup for the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/
You could consider reinstalling the WordPress version, and checking for this plugin wp-zexit.php. It might be wise to inspect via FTP if it doesn’t appear in the WordPress -> Plugins. Additionally, using Wordfence to scan the website and remove unknown users would be prudent.
Change admin passwords and delete admin accounts you are not familiar with;
– Delete any weird/unknown plugins;
– Delete the weird/unknown themes;
– Clean unfamiliar Theme Panel injected code (example – https://i.imgur.com/4q70kCv.png);
– Clean WordPress files (example – https://i.imgur.com/stJCqiK.png)
Please block /wp-json/tdw/save_css
If an attacker wants to target this URL /wp-json/tdw/save_css they can do so. Even if the website uses a different theme, the attacker can still try that URL. We could add an option to be able to enable/disable the Live CSS, it will be considered. But for now in order to remove it this can only be done with a modification to the composer plugin. I think that all that removing it requires is to comment this line of code – https://prnt.sc/RtwvL5Nc4ikR -> https://prnt.sc/ymZmhdUfp57U But as I mentioned, the attacker can still try to access the URL.
Thank you!
I’m glad that the color problem has been resolved! 😀
Ok, now related to mentioned problems, this one with the image – img1 it appears that the image was not yet converted in .webp format, now seems to be so that error should no longer appear for that image.
Related to img2 it appears that you have a robots.txt file where you have some code that is blocking the Googlebot that wants to check your website – https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/13144973?hl=en

Hi TheZugzwangBlog,
Ok, let’s try to resolve the problems one by one, first on homepage:
– you have some errors in console that should b resolved – https://i.imgur.com/afwoy3V.png
– the footer logo image is missing – https://i.imgur.com/i3eAHkX.png
– for “Background and foreground colors do not have a sufficient contrast ratio.” use this custom css:
.td_block_big_grid .td-big-grid-meta,
.td_module_mx1 .meta-info {
background: #111;
}
.td_module_mx1 .meta-info {
padding-top: 16px;
padding-bottom: 16px;
margin-bottom: 0;
}
– set for “Últimas entradas” a different SEO title, set it on H2 – https://i.imgur.com/gyBDQWt.jpeg
Those should improve the situation. After you implement it let me know and I will check and see what remains and provide some solution to make it better.
Thank you!

Hey @Calin,
Thanks, though I think am still a bit unclear or perhaps I did not explain correctly.
I used ACF to create a Co-Author field. My Co-Author field group is a user-type currently and in the backend, I can choose the user from a dropdown list. I am able to display it on the post as well by modifying the single-post template.
Then you need to use a single post template, edit it using tagDiv Composer and add the custom filed element and select the acf for authors- https://i.imgur.com/3pgDu6E.png – https://i.imgur.com/LCkuu1D.jpeg – https://i.imgur.com/vhOMOJI.png
— so I guess this part is sorted.
What am unable to do is, have the post show up in the author archive of the Co Author. It only shows in the primary author’s archive.
To display the co-authors on blocks you need to create modules were you can create the layout of blocks and add elements you want there you can add the custom fields too – https://forum.tagdiv.com/modules-builder-newspaper-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-builder-flex-loop-builder/ — Thank you, I will try this!
Hello theheritagelab,
Yes, you can use ACF to create a Co-Author field, we’ll be something like this:
Add a new field:
Under Field Settings, choose:

Hi, couple of questions.
- Is it possible to have a placeholder image displayed on the post for when a post doesn’t have a featured image.
- If so, how do I change this to a custom image? Is it the same image as the thumb placeholder in the block settings in the theme settings?
- When uploading a thumb placeholder, what minimum dimensions should it be?
- If thumb placeholder is uploaded/changed do I need to regenerate thumbnails for entire media library or can I just regenerate thumbnails for new thumb placeholder in media library.
Thanks for your help,
John
I have a similar issue, but I used ACF to create a Co-Author field and am able to display it on the post as well. The post however, does not show up in the second author’s archive page or in the modules for blocks elsewhere (obviously). I am using the Newspaper theme (not Newsmag).
Can you confirm that I need to follow similar steps to achieve the same result? Or is there another way you would suggest considering am using ACF?
Thank you in advance!

Hello,
Yes, you can use a different design for the block that you want to highlight some posts. Youcan create a module as you want https://forum.tagdiv.com/modules-builder-newspaper-theme/
Thank you!
Hi,
You can use the custom label in the posts editor-> https://i.imgur.com/gTtAQRv.png, which will be displayed for Flex Block and Big Grid Flex -> https://i.imgur.com/3Uop58r.jpg and this appears only when you set there something. This element can’t be added in Single Post Template.
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, you can use that element, and the flex loop block works like posts loop.
Thank you!

Hello,
You can use Flex Loop Filters, but these filter work only on the Flex Loop Block https://forum.tagdiv.com/filters-sorting-taxonomies/
Thank you!
Hello,
Please add this class to the block td-numbered-post-flex and add this code in a raw CSS https://i.imgur.com/2EpPwHa.jpeg -> https://i.imgur.com/uOHyM9l.png
.td-numbered-post-flex .td_block_inner {
counter-reset: section;
}
.td-numbered-post-flex .td_block_inner .td_module_flex_1::before {
counter-increment: section;
content: counter(section);
color: #d2dae1;
border-radius: 50%;
font-family: PT Serif, Serif;
font-size: 42px;
line-height: 1;
display: inline-flex;
position: absolute;
right: 0;
bottom: 10px;
}
@media (min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1018px) {
.td-numbered-post-flex .td_block_inner .td_module_flex_1::before {
font-size: 30px;
}
}
Thank you!
Hello,
I recommend using a single post template -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/design-post-pages-using-cloud-library-templates/ For example, add a flex block in a post template, go to the filter tab of the element’s settings, and from the dropdown category filter, you can choose between Single – More from author, Single – Related by category, Single – Related from tags. Those special filters will work as expected https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
For the moment, the only solution is to use a custom css to remove the section “More From Author”:
.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right{
display: none;
}
Set the code in Theme Panel – Custom code – custom CSS.
Thank you!

I checked the theme editing section in the header because I wanted to inspect the H1 headings, as there are two H1 headings set on the page. I didn’t make any changes, I just took a look. How can I fix this problem?I restored a backup from the previous day, but it didn’t help. The code is only visible in the Firefox browser.
Hi Calin – both of those ideas look good. I want to get text flowing across the front page, so I guess the block solution will do it. I hadn’t noticed that option. Many thanks
Many thanks, Anamaria – I will check this out. But neither of those pages has a flex block, only posts loop in each page. On the category page the presence of the tt-icon code has an effect, closing or opening the next-prev arrows, on the author page it has no effect – the arrows are always together at the left. Just curious…
Hi Mark, do you want this kind of flow on blocks or articles?
If is on articles it can be done using the columns css and the results will be – https://i.imgur.com/4dQAQxD.png
If is on block – you can use flex block 1 option for excerpt columns – https://i.imgur.com/MNTvk8N.png
I hope this will help you!
