Hello –
I’m using Block 21 on my home page, but I also use it throughout the site. I can’t figure out how to change the color combo of the text and header block. On this page, it’s white letters on blue (which I like) https://www.kvnutalk.com/for-the-people/
And on this page (scroll down about halfway) it’s dark gray on black https://www.kvnutalk.com/
Any help would be great – thanks!
Thank you Bogdan. Could you tell me a little more?
Run the regen plugin after switching to TD or before? Running the regen plugin sounds pretty risky…I am thinking what if it changes even the existing image sizes which are just fine with VC but shows issues only when I use TD. What confuses me is, if the problem is at my end AND if both the plugin (VC and TD) blocks work the same way so far images are concern, then why all is fine with VC at the moment but changes when I use TD with identical blocks?

Ok thank you!
But would you consider that as a possible option?
Here’s why:
On the site I’m managing they have a lot of categories (as do many news sites).
They also have a MAJOR sponsor and they do a show on Sirius monthly that get’s added to the list of posts on the site.
The sponsor has their own block section, so we don’t want to have to show a new post from the sponsor in the first block (latest posts) when that same post appear in the sponsor block directly below.
Anyway, so I have a way to control this as per your suggestion, just not a very elegant solution. 🙂
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
The related articles font properties can also be influenced by the global block header style. When using default for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/kG2lALqqHN
The font weight of the related articles/more from author is normal
– https://www.screencast.com/t/O0Gow8dlU
A dedicated font setting just for that is not available, they will be affected by these font settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ZtrEcpWQU
The mobile front page grid does not need a scroll, it will display 3 articles one below the other
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Desktop grids when responsive, have an intuitive design that would lead to scrolling by the user
– https://www.screencast.com/t/USOi2Jk3nh2
A scroll will appear – https://www.screencast.com/t/5btaOSSK4
Thanks
The excerpt and subtitle are different things, that is true. Block modules will display the excerpts, the subtitles are only displayed in the post page.
The excerpt is either taken automatically from the post content, or you can enter it manually (in this case it will not be displayed in the post page, only in modules).
I have tried to explain above what will happen if you use a heading for example in the post content before the smart list. Also if the post begins directly with a smart list the excerpt will be taken from it, unless manually set.
You could leave it like that, with the text above the list. It could be as a description for the following smart list, that should not be a problem. Use a paragraph or heading for it.
Hi, I activated the TagDiv Newspaper 8.7 theme on my website but I have some problems with the new Flex Block 1. It doesn’t show the thumb, even if I choose “normal” in TagDiv Composer>Layout>Article image>Image position when I edit the page in the frontend. It just pushes the title of the article 5-10px down when the image position is set to “normal” and the title goes back to its top position when I set the image as “hidden”.
Furthermore, when I set the border in TagDiv Composer>CSS (for example, Border style = Solid, 2 px etc…) It shows the border when TagDiv Composer is opened but It disappear when I close the Composer and I go back to the page.
On localhost It works just fine and I cannot understand what’s happening on the remote server.
On localhost the site runs on Windows and PHP 7.1.7, while on remote server it runs on CentOS and PHP 5.6.
Can you help me? Thank you.
Hi,
Indeed, the block modules are predefined, the thumbnails each one uses and also it’s design will always be the same to ensure they will always display properly. Only the flex block has settings in terms of layout
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/flex-block/
– https://tagdiv.com/go-beyond-flexibility-new-flex-block/
I believe that is block 1, it should look like this
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
If it does not look like that for you then something is wrong. Provide a link to it so we can take a look.
If you want to add a new block or module there are guides
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_blockadd/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_moduleadd/
Thanks
Yes, now it worked and I was able to access it.
Please use this custom css in your theme panel-> custom code section:
.block-title .rsswidget{
background-color:#d33;
}
Thank you!
Hi,
The post author and date will be centered for most or all blocks, if you have installed the Art Creek demo. There is a condition in the demo stylesheet that is supposed to do this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/oJQ7d8qKj
If you would like that block 14 to not be affected by this design, use a code like this for example
.td_block_14 .td_module_wrap {
text-align: left;
}
So, how can i create news block, Have you got a document describe in detail it.
Thanks for replay
Hello dichthat,
I suppose that you want to increase the width of your modules in blocks likes? Please notice that the theme does not have any such an option for it and also, we do not recommend to do this because you can easily break the theme layout, sorry! If you want to make this, you should do it yourself but please notice that we cannot provide support for additional customizations.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
The actual ad codes can be entered in the theme panel ads section, for the locations you want them to appear
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/ads-adsense-overview/
So if your Adsense account is activated and there are no problems, the ads should appear
– https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/76228?hl=en
– https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/9724?hl=en
The code that could be needed to be inserted in the header file would be the verification code, more in this topic
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/adsense-ad-shows-above-header/
Also be sure to not have ad-blockers enabled when testing, and the ads are not disabled

Hi Catalin,
I’ve fixed the issue with the TagDiv Composer error. But of more significance, is the still not functioning adding of blocks to my home page.
Cheers,

Hi,
A view counter will not be displayed on modules/blocks, there would be no setting to enable the view count for them. They will only display predefined information
– https://www.screencast.com/t/qcZNnOWY
It could be done with code modifications in the theme files, if this is absolutely required
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-show-postviews-instead-og-commentcount-on-frontpage/
The theme does not have a sharing counter, there are sharing options for posts only but there are no counters.
Hello Catalin, thanks again for your quick reply.
How should I proceed if i want to modify the alignement for a specific block only, if possible ? In that case the block 14.
Because I use the block 5 for the index page, and I like the fact that the text is centered, I don’t want to modify it.
I cannot see any issues on your site apart from a bit of spacing around this block: https://www.screencast.com/t/lHFJi34S
But that is because the sidebar block shows content longer than the main section. Limit the sidebar block with less posts and the spacing will be gone.
Thanks
Hi,
All the theme blocks and grids can be customized in terms of the content they display and sorting. Depending on their location, either edit the page with the composer and customize the element you want, or in the widgets section of WordPress (when blocks are placed in widget sidebars or footer)
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
There is a popular sorting, this requires post views to be enabled
– https://www.screencast.com/t/OlxpJJkS
Based on how many views the posts get, they will be sorted in the respective block or grid.
Thanks
Hi,
I previously added facebook page plugin into my site

Then I include the JavaScript SDK in the custom code(as picture)
I can see the page plugin on my site before, but now I cant.
Do you know how to solve the problem?
Best Regards,
Wayne
Hi Catalin,
Not running Yoast at all, disabled it yesterday. Not running any caching either. Finally, have also changed all the settings higher than those on the system status parameters just to be on the safe side.
Still not working. I have messaged my hosting provider to see if my VPS has a cache running I don’t know about. Will update here if it’s miraculously working.
How about my block content issues? I’ve logged a support request via contact@tagdiv.com as I can’t make it function. It’s very broken.
Cheers,
Mark
Hello,
If you need help configuring the block filters, please use this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hi,
That is full big grid 4, it will require a different code to change the article title color for it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/khyGoQPDpy7
.td-blog-fitness .td_block_big_grid_fl_4.td-grid-style-4 .td_module_mx21 .td-meta-info-container .td-module-title a{
color:#dc7b77;
}
There is no specific setting to change the color of titles in the grids. For blocks there are settings.
Thanks

How i can insert views and share count on module and blocks
Hi,
I’ve upgraded to the new version of Newsmag. I had to disable Yoast to even be able to save my front page. Two things are still going wrong. One is the TagDiv Composer error (Errors happened during tdcIframeData.init() -> bindViewsModelsWrappers()!), which I can live with for now… but the other is that every time I add a new block to my home page, all my content disappears as soon as I save the page, everything below the main menu… completely gone… anyone have any clues as to how to fix that?
Cheers,
Mark
I have the same problem, Im trying to add a custom field to a block, but cant get it done… any advice?
