Generally the only way to eliminate the render blocking with Google fonts, is to move the CSS into top of your style.css to load fonts “directly” vs loading the .css sheet off Google’s CDN.
You can also try adding your custom CSS to bottom of style.css vs adding to theme panel.
Finally, you can also ‘view source’ on your page to see WHAT is actually loading at top/bottom of rendered post pages.
Not sure that helps or not.
Great, that was the problem, the imcompatiblity of both.
Just the last question.
I used the text with title block, but without text, just for use the title. In older version I leave the text block in blank, and dont apperance nothing, but with the newest version show this message:
Html code here! Replace this with any non empty text and that’s it.
I find this message in the file “td_block_text_with_title.php” and i delete here, but the message persists.
Any solution for how use just a title?
Dear Sir/Madame,
I am facing a theme speed issue after adding custom CSS to my theme, from the theme panel. Initial speed, without the custom CSS, is 94/97 on Speed Insights which is super.
Upon adding the custom CSS I get these 6 strange render-blocking CSS which where not there before:
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-7/includes/css/styles.css?ver=4.8
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300,400,600,700|Roboto+Condensed:300,300italic,400,400italic,700,700italic&ver=3.4
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/plugins/jetpack/_inc/genericons/genericons/genericons.css?ver=3.1
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/plugins/jetpack/css/jetpack.css?ver=5.0
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/assets/css/js_composer.min.css?ver=5.1.1
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/style.css?ver=3.4
As a result the website speeds down by 79/91, which is great, but why not speed up more (I mean your theme has amazing speed).
Even if I deactivate all erelevant plugins like Jetpack or Contact Form 7, I still get render 4 blocking sources (which I don’t get without the custom code)
http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans:300,400,600,700|Roboto+Condensed:300,300italic,400,400italic,700,700italic&ver=3.4
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/assets/css/js_composer.min.css?ver=5.1.1
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/style.css?ver=3.4
I followed your instructions here but I cannot seem to find these particular CSS that causes this
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Based on your instruction I added to the td-speed-booster.php the following code
//@todo test on newsmag
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue(‘contact-form-7’);
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue(‘jetpack’);
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue(‘js_composer_front’);
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue(‘Newsmag’);
but the issue persists.
Unfortunately I cannot use WP Cache on my server because it does not support the plugin. I can use other 3rd party plugins to optimize (Autoptimize, Above the fold) but that will only take me to 84%.
Any suggestions?
Am I doing something wrong??
My website url is this one:
http://astropaideia.wpengine.com/
Thank you for the great theme,
Dimitris Belegris
Hi,
If you want to insert the sharing buttons in the modules (blocks) there is no option to do that by default. The module files are found in the theme here
– https://www.screencast.com/t/gaB5NtzIxS2T
Opening one of the module files you can see it’s structure. It may not be an easy task to implement something like this. The modules display only the predefined meta information below the thumbnail, adding those sharing options could break the design or cause problems.
The theme uses the social counter plugin for sharing
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial-2/
And these sharing options for posts
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/sharing/
Thanks
Hi. We’re currently using blocks 11 and 12 to show entries in our homepage; however, we don’t like how they display on mobile. We have then customised (with custom CSS code for mobile) the behaviour in order to match the style of block 4 on mobiles, to show all both the featured imagen and the excerpt full width:
/* Show block 11 and 12 as block 4 on mobile */
.td_block_11 .td-module-thumb .entry-thumb,
.td_block_12 .td-module-thumb .entry-thumb,
.td_block_11 .td-module-thumb,
.td_block_12 .td-module-thumb
{
width: 100%!important;
}
.td_block_11 .item-details,
.td_block_12 .item-details{
margin-left: 0;
}
.td_block_11 .td-module-thumb,
.td_block_12 .td-module-thumb {
position: relative;
}
.td_block_11 .td-excerpt,
.td_block_12 .td-excerpt {
display: block;
}
That works fine except that the image is not linked anymore to the post url. Why? Thank you for your support.
Hi,
The Big Grids and some blocks do have that effect applied on the images. There are different styles that can be selected on a Big grid for example
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/
To remove that black tint from the Big Grid on your page and the module below it, you can try a code like this that will remove the effect
– https://www.screencast.com/t/UIChfg9w
The code must be entered in Theme panel->Custom Css
.td-grid-style-1.td-hover-1 .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before,
.td_module_mx8 .td-module-thumb a:last-child:after {
display:none;
}
Please let me know if this is what you wanted or you need something else. I have edited your previous reply and removed the login information.
Thanks
Hi, thank you very much for your quick answer.
What I relly would like is to change the Category tag on modules/blocks for each category
Here you have my site: http://akuaroworld.simplifyourbusiness.com
As you can see I have a different color for each category and I would like to mantain this color for every color of the tag for Modules/Blocks according the category, make sense what I mean?
Hi,
For the Block 9 on your homepage you can try this code
– https://www.screencast.com/t/YfJm1pIisMkO
It will remove the padding and margins for the module used on Block 9 only
.td_block_9 .td_module_8 {
padding-bottom: 0;
margin-bottom: 0;
}
The code has to be entered in Theme panel->Custom Css section. Please let me know if this is what you wanted, or you need something else.
Thanks
i’m tested and not works. i would export setting of theme with all setting (home page, category configuration blocks, etc) it is possibile export a configuration global of site for import in a online site?
Hi,
It seems to be an issue when using a different Block header style, than Block header style 1 – Default. This is causing the problem with the category hierarchy. Please enter this code in Theme pane->Custom Css, it should fix the problem for the current header style that you are using for the blocks
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6Y9LbULUPz
.td_block_template_10.widget li {
margin-left: 12px!important;
}
I will add this problem on our issue list, and hopefully it will be fixed as soon as possible.
Thanks
After activating the plug-in WPML in the widgets on the Filter tab, in the Category drop-down list, only one item All categories. In this case, the filter works on the category that was before the plug-in activation. Because of this, I can not add new widgets and change the settings in the old ones. When deactivate the plugin, everything works fine.
Hi,
Sorry but the new full grids to not yet have typography settings in the theme panel. It is on our to do list and we will add them in future theme updates.
Until then you can use this css to change the font size:
Big thumbs:
.td_block_big_grid_fl_7 .td_module_mx23 .entry-title{
font-size:24px;
}
Small thumbs:
.td_block_big_grid_fl_7 .td_module_mx24 .entry-title{
font-size:16px;
}
Thanks.
Hi,
Maybe you have changed the Block header style. Header style 12 has a similar feature displayed on the blocks
– https://www.screencast.com/t/hkuGQA1Ze
If you are talking about something else, it would be very helpful if you could provide a screenshot or a link to your website pointing to this.
Thanks
Hello pinxe,
If you want to change the category tag color, you should check the Theme panel->Settings, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Un8RAlLKA Also, you can try using a bit of CSS code to change the color of the tag for Modules/Blocks. If is not what you mean, provide more details about what you are wanting to do and also, provide your website URL so I can take a closer look at it.
Thanks for the message!
Hello,
Since the read more button is a custom implementation (as it’s not part of block 11 by default) you should check the css for the custom element. It is not a theme issue. It is a custom element and not part of the original theme code.
You can however much more easily switch to block 12 which already has a read more element to it: https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-12/
If you do not want to switch the block, you cna try the alternatove to hide the read more button in ipads.
You can try this code:
.ebl-readmore{
display:none
}
You can add the code in the theme panel->custom code->advanced css and place it in the ipad portrait section
Thank you!
Hi,
In order to remove more from author you can use 2 methods:
The css method:
.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right {
display:none;
}
You can add the code in the theme panel-> custom css box.
Or you can edit the theme files: comment out or delete this part: http://screencast.com/t/Okmq7lxTDzGd
Thank you!
Hi,
The Craft ideas demo uses a background image for the block header
– https://www.screencast.com/t/IcMzdvSK
The style is specific to that demo, each of the demos has it’s own customization. The block header style used is Block header style 6 with some modifications, that can be seen in the demo stylesheet like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/XX13G5u0q
Thanks

Thanks
And is it possible to manage the background like the block title background in the Craft Ideas demo?
I would like to know if it’s possible to add the same CATEGORY TAG COLOR ON POST PAGE to all Category tag on modules/blocks
Hey bogdan,
Here is what i found, I dunno how to fix that.
Minifying https://vapekrew.com/…ntent/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=8.0 could save 15.4KiB (14% reduction) after compression.
Your page has 1 blocking CSS resources. This causes a delay in rendering your page.

Hi,
In the mentioned page is displayed a simple block 4 placed at the end of the page
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-4/
With infinite pagination set in the block settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/bst3ZhSQ
More about the available block settings here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Each category page can have infinite loading as well. There is an option for pagination style in the per category settings in theme panel
– https://www.screencast.com/t/xU73eQicQ
Or a general one for all category pages, in the category global settings
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
Thanks
Hi,
the background image behind the block title.
Hello marcunix,
If you want to use the Post type from filter option, notice that there you should add what kind of files to be displayed, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/6kyUQrdtlnz I do not know what exactly you want to achieve. Notice that we do not have any blocks which do not display the featured images, sorry! If you will not have any featured image setup, will appear a placeholder, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/o9koLWr58 All of our available blocks which can be used on the theme can be found here -> https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
Thanks for the message!
