Hi, I would like to change the default title style site wide for blocks and page titles, to one of the title styles available in the blocks settings. Is there a custom css code for this?
I’m using the Sound Radar demo.

Hi,
On pages you can place any of the available elements, with the composer. For example use a block of your choosing (these are all the blocks – use election to switch and view blocks)
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
Then you can limit the posts and also filter by category and sort posts
– https://www.screencast.com/t/AXwjSK1g
– https://www.screencast.com/t/VhRIEhXi5DAe
Here you can see all the available block settings and options

Thanks
Strange, did all that and still the same. Problem appear to be witth infinite loading on all blocks that i test…
Hello again,
I have searched it 2 weeks and found it after creating this topic :)))
I am writing here what I’ve found if other users are facing the same problem.
Actually the latest news are coming with template page, so if you don’t want to use it, you have to create new static front page with blocks you want and after that, to set it up as a front page from Settings of the WordPress.
Hello,
First of all , I wanna thank you for this theme 🙂
You rock!
Second,
I am using Newsmag theme and I have searched a lot, but can’t find how to move or remove “Latest news” from the front page. They are showing after all of my blocks (which i’ve added), but can’t find where latest news are added or how to move them in another place.
I will waiting for your response.
Thanks 🙂
Hello reni,
Please notice that the Pick Editor is just a simple block which is automatically added with the Footer Template. I’ll recommend you to use another Footer Temple, like Template Style 5 because there you can add every block you want and place it in Footer 1,2,3, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/footer-templates/ Also,
if you mean how you can change the string name of this footer block, please notice that you can do this from TRanslations setting in Theme panel, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/4RuHHVYg -> https://www.screencast.com/t/wFO8QYcjEhP
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi guys,
I would like to use some of the predefined block templates to show woocommerce products. Currently I’m able to set as a source only a standard category and standard posts.
What should I edit in order to be able to choose product categories?
Thanks
Hi guys,
I’d like to use the heading that comes with the predefined block templates, but as a separate element:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/5w7x62ckl243amm/heading-demo.jpg?dl=0
How can I do that?
Thanks
Hi,
If you enter the video link in the featured video field, the theme will create a thumbnail from that video. That thumbnail will be displayed on blocks and modules
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image-or-video/
The video will be displayed as a featured video inside the post.
That is the default functionality of the theme, no plugin is required. If you don’t want a featured video in the post, then you must set a featured image of your choosing.
Thanks
Hello arnimation,
Try to regenerate the thumbnails using the Force Regenerate and Thumbnails Regenerate according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
Thanks for the message!
Hello narinder912,
I guess that your problem comes from your speed optimization, sorry. Please notice that the speed of your website depends on how well your site is optimized. Notice that is not a simple task and if you do not have any experience in this regard you will do not bring good results for the theme. Also, notice that we have a speed optimization tutorial but this is addressed only to advanced users. So, if you follow the steps which are presented in this tutorial here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ you can increase the page speed loading and if you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because the speed optimization services are not covered by our support policy, as you can read here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/support-policy-2/ Check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ regarding on dedicated server to fit to our requirements.
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option to minify the style.css file and we cannot recommend any plugins with this functionality because is not tested with our theme. For minifying this file, we are using CloudFlare for our demo and works fine. If you want to read other views from our users, please check this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tip-how-to-easily-minify-your-css-without-breaking-your-site/
One of our top members here on the forum wrote his own optimization tutorial here:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-chriss-custom-optimizations-for-functions-php-etc/ and here -> https://www.infophilic.com/get-almost-100-pagespeed-newspaper-theme/
Basically, these are the theme requirements
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
Regarding on Google Fonts, notice that if you will follow all the steps from our useful guide, you can move to the footer this render blocking.
Please keep in mind that at the moment, we cannot provide optimization services because this task involves time-consuming and we do not afford to do this, sorry! We only can provide support for basic theme settings.
If you are not aware of these steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Hevila,
You should regenerate all of your thumbnails if you want that your images to fit correctly. Try to use the ForceRegenerate and Thumbnail Regenerate according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello. After adding the Block 13, i notice that the first posts, after “infinite loading” starts working, are the same, even with “Unique articles“active. My website if u want to check: http://www.somosung.com/
Hi
When I do a pagespeed test, this line shows as render blocking css: http://fonts.googleapis.com/…
If I block or remove google fonts using Autoptimize, will that break anything in the site?
Thanks & Regards
Narinder
There should be no plugins for TagDiv blocks in your /plugins/ folder – would be good thing to double check. For example if you had ionmag installed first, then switched on Newspaper, it might be seeing those.
Dunno. very weird! (I don’t work here, but use both themes.)
I am running Newspaper8 and definitely not IonMag. Should the “Red Blocks” even appear on Newspaper8’s TagDiv Composer?
Also, I uninstalled plugins and that did not help.

Hello,
I use VideoSwiper to automatically post embed videos from YouTube etc to my blog. However out of the hundreds of sites i’ve created, there seems to be an issue with this theme:
“Could not find file installed on the site,or invalid response was received.”
Regardless if the file is installed, mod_security is turned off as well. Permissions are set to 0644 — Is there something in this theme that’s blocking my pushes?
“Unlock this block. Buy now” – this is message not from Newspaper 8 theme.
Remove (disable) all of the untested plugins and use only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files.
Check the results again.
Hello colognedude,
Sorry for this but please notice that each of our demos has a specific design which will be automatically imported when the demo is installed. If you want to have another header block template for a demo which comes from another demo style, notice that you should implement it yourself because we cannot provide custom services, at the moment and the theme does not have any such an option that allows you to this, automatically, sorry!
Thanks.
Hi Simion,
many thanks for your feedback!
I’ve tested the demo page you shared, and works fine from all devices and browsers.
It’s not easy to say under which circumstances my personal devices (mac and windows 10 pc) don’t visualize my page correctly, cause they just don’t, as shown in the screenshots I’ve shared.
The page that doesn’t work and I would like to be the home page moving forward is the following:
https://www.sgaialand.it/sgaialand-magazine-home/
With the relative code:

Maybe the two things are not related, but I noticed that from my personal devices I also can’t save changes in the theme panel. I can do it from the same computers that can visualize the page above correctly.
Hope this helps, thanks again for your help.
Kind regards
Hi,
You will have to edit the post template file that you are using and insert the code there, above the related articles section. Each post template has a corresponding loop-single file
– https://www.screencast.com/t/mLNKbDeP
Between the related articles title and the block content would be more difficult. This is where the related block title and inner content are defined, if you want to try it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/BKSt6eRsValt
Thanks
Hi,
This is the file where the mega menu block is defined
– https://www.screencast.com/t/XmJRBiHHPS
And in the theme’s javascript file

I am using non-adsense ads (i am using shortcode from ad-rotate plug in) in newspaper 8.0.0
i would like to exclude ad blocks on a per category basis. Specifically when we publish obituaries. We have a special category for this and it seems a bit tacky to include advertising.
Is there a way to exclude ads on particular categories? Alternatively, would you expect the shortcode settings to come through and be applied also? The ad-rotate settings are such that the adverts would not appear on selected categories. The shortcode carries through the ad settings, size settings etc, but not the category settings.
Hi Catalin, completely understand and would hate to break the theme.
Here’s a sample link: https://rmn.ph/staging-block/
Using block 3 – Title, meta, etc. were hidden via css so it would only show the image (we prefer the size of block 3 images)
Wondering how we can get rid of that extra space under the image.
Thanks!
I have a google adsense code which is wrapped with another code that controls the adsense code. But when I put this code in the ad section of the theme, the additional code seems to be removed as a javascript just runs with the publisher and data id from the adsense part of the code. Is there a way the theme would run the code the way it is?
I tried to put the code in the header file (header-style-11.php) before the ad part of the code, it works but the ad block is not centered, it is towards the left. I put the some classes (check the first two line of the code), but it didn’t help. The code is provided below,
<div class=”td-banner-wrap-full td-banner-bg td-container-wrap”>
<div class=”td-container-header td-header-row td-header-header”>
<!– Ezoic – Header Ad Wrap – top_of_page –>
<div id=”ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-100″>
<script async src=”//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js”></script>
<!– Header Ad –>
<ins class=”adsbygoogle”
style=”display:block”

<script>
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
</script>
</div>
<!– End Ezoic – Header Ad Wrap – top_of_page –>
