Hello,
1. The block title is controlled for each block in particular as well as the ajax filter(the list of categories)
Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
2. The same block settings alow you css options in the css tab to reduce the spacing for each block in particular.
3. You can limit the number of posts shown in categories from here: https://www.screencast.com/t/PLzDmBIDq If you use a module that shows 3 posts in a row, the total number must be one that can be divided by 3
Thank you!
Hello epickenyan,
If you want to achieve block 13 in two columns you should do like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/HeCxyOIKT
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hello,
There are blocks that already provide the read more button so adding them to a block that does not have such an implementation will be too big of a hassle when the implementation is already there for blocks: 12, 13, 20, 22, 23 and 24
You can implement it through coding if you want to:

Thank you!
Hi,
1. Indeed, the latest post sorting will display posts as soon as they are published, from the categories you choose. That is for all block and grid types available.
2. Those can be arranged as you like. Enter the category IDs in the order you want, in the ajax filter field
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nSL9TrsFH
Category IDs can be seen here for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6EI6zvxKznfr
With the ajax filter you can have only specific categories displayed.
3. The “More” dropdown will appear when there is not enough space available to display all the categories.
Please let us know if you have further questions, or you need help with something.
Thanks
Hi,
The theme uses modules to display posts on pages, these modules form blocks and grids. A block or grid can contain multiple module types
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
Each of the modules has a predefined thumbnail size
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
The necessary thumbnails will be created from the featured images or videos you set for posts
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image-or-video/
A center-top cropping is used when creating the thumbnails
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image/
The resulting thumbnails are also affected by the image aspect ratio
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/
So different modules can have different results with the same image. You can choose what block types you use, also the modules used where they are present.
I see you are using block 13 on your homepage, by editing the page with the tagDiv composer you can add/remove blocks and configure them
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
So to summarize the thumbnails cannot be resized with a theme option, you can change module/block type but not the thumbnail size.
Please correct me if I misunderstand something.
Thanks
Hi,
You cannot do that, blocks are predefined. Block 15 you mention will always display 3 modules in a 2 column layout, 5 when in a full row
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-15/
In the coming update there will be a new type of block introduced. With it this could be achieved.
Thanks
.vc_raw_html iframe {

this is what I need, thanks
Hi,
Those would be quotes, these are available in the formats drop-down when creating a post
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/post-formats-for-tinymce/
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/blockquotes-pullquotes/
You can color the font of the text and set a background color like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nnEB65XyyOv
Of course you can customize the quotes further with custom CSS if needed

Thanks
Hi,
1. From what I can see the website is missing the header section, I cannot even see the menu
– https://www.screencast.com/t/b0SO4uvrA9E
The current header structure is not coming from the theme
– https://www.screencast.com/t/t3I96vXsWvQs
Maybe there have been modifications made to the theme header style files directly or through a child theme. You could check if that is the case.
2. The block titles seem to have a white background color, that is what makes them invisible
– https://www.screencast.com/t/B9SVlQZH2
Edit the page with the composer and change the title background color, also check the general header background color set in the theme panel
– https://www.screencast.com/t/0fNQODVe9F0
3. Same here, check the widget settings or the general color set in the theme panel.
Ultimately you could try a theme reinstall, maybe there were problems when installing or migrating the website

Thanks
Hi,
Regarding the fonts, I managed to set them up mostly with a few exceptions.
In the homepage > blog the excerpt isn’t changing. I found that I can modify it via modules and blocks general > excerpt, but only the boldness. Not the font size and line heigh or font style.
In the comment section: the comments title (HOZZÁSZÓLOK A CIKKHEZ) a the line below (when logged in) and the box/field content. I can’t seem to change those via the “comment” font settings.
Hello,
The request is too general. What font do you want change? where? in what size?
I will provide a few example codes for you to edit to your preference:
@media(max-width:767px){
.page .td-excerpt{
font-size:20px!important
}
.page .td-module-title, .page .block-title{
font-size:20px!important
}
.td-post-content p, .td-post-content{
font-size:20px
}}
You can add the code in the theme panel- custom css box
Thank you!
Hello,
Please use this guide to filter your posts on blocks: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hi,
The featured category is not mandatory, you could even remove it if needed. It is a simple category with some special attributes
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/
Content can still be displayed in blocks without it just as well. Of course it is also helpful (no category tag, featured sorting).
In terms of SEO I really could not say if something like that will affect the website in a negative or positive way. You could maybe make some more online research in the matter, there are many helpful SEO tutorials available. You can make a decision based on those, hopefully the right one.
The forum search will display results from documentation first, then topic results

Please let us know if you have further questions, or you need help with something.
Thanks
Hello,
Please also disable them from the block settings under meta info: https://www.screencast.com/t/BTdujQcU
Thank you!
Hello,
You can create a page in the tagdiv composer and split the row in 3: https://www.screencast.com/t/LJddKY1K
You can add content to the rows by using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
This guide should help with the settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
If you want a block without thumbs, try blocks 9 and 10.
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-9/
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-10/
You do not need a child theme as you can use the tagdiv composer to add css to any block and page.
Thank you!
Hi, i just bought the newspaper theme. I have noticed that not every shortcode work. I am trying to drag Adbox shortcode from left to right side pane (the page) but it doesn’t drag. And so is the problem with few big grids and blocks. This is my site URL outlookpakistan.com.
Could you tell what should i do to resolve it?
You could try the solutions from these topics if the icons are replaced with strange characters
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/font-blocked-from-loading-by-cross-origin-resource-sharing-policy-no-access-co/
These worked for most users, it is an issue with the server configuration and the required font used for the icons cannot be loaded properly.
Hi,
All the modules display the date and category tags. If these are not showing for you, please make sure they are enabled in the theme panel. The date can be enabled here for modules/blocks
– https://www.screencast.com/t/VY4W2jJXjRfP
The category tag can be enabled/disabled for each module
– https://www.screencast.com/t/gcvU2XXSASS
The date format can be changed if needed in the WordPress settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nwBC7vGxEifE
– https://codex.wordpress.org/Formatting_Date_and_Time
If this is not what you wanted, please try to provide some more details for a better understanding.
Thanks
Hi,
If you want the articles to be displayed in blocks/grids as soon as you publish them then make sure you use the “Latest” sorting option on each of them
– https://www.screencast.com/t/mfhoylzk
Then the latest posts would be displayed as soon as they are published, according to the categories you have filtered the block with
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
If you already tried this, then maybe it is a caching issue. A strong cache can cause such issues. Clear all installed or server provided caches to refresh the data.
Thanks
Hi,
Indeed the blocks do not have numbered pagination, they only have pagination like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/5joJB1pVqn
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
The latest articles section does have an option to set a custom title, like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/A2bCwgQpmT3V
You can choose to enable/disable the title and set a custom title.
If you want an additional title you could add it like you mention, with a text element. Or even a title element
– https://www.screencast.com/t/91gCn1AjQL1
On the second page when using the pagination, the page content will not be displayed however.
Thanks
Hi,
If the post is not actually published it will not be displayed in blocks and grids. It needs to be published first, then it will appear. The post can be previewed in the backend by users who have this capability, if that is what you want.
Thanks
Hi,
Im using Newsmag template. So when i tried to get json for BIG GRID 5 unfortunately error. Can i know how to get JSON for each blocks in newsmag?
Still hoping that you shall have something similar to block 2 or 4 or 5 made out of block 13. It would be very nice having two column block out of that.
Hello there,
I have a few questions related to the “block 1” of the newspaper theme.
1. Is it possible to list by default all latest articles? I set the options for that block to “latest” – that should be enough, right?
2. Further, is it possible to order the categories in a specific way? F.e I want to put “Champion League” right behind “Alle News” – is there a chance to do that?
3. What are the factors for the amount of categories getting listed in the section and not under “more”? Is it simply the wordlength of the category itself?
Select Block 7 on the widget’s section for the sidebar and then filter the posts according to how you want (popular 7 days, popular all time).
