Hi Anamaria, disabled option, cleared cache and yes, now it works. Thanks!
Hello,
There is an option to disable the mobile theme from a page/post – https://i.imgur.com/d3kTBRf.png. This option appears in the Gutenberg editor. After you disable the mobile theme on the page, you can use the responsive version. There are no other solutions.
To increase page speed, I recommend checking which thumbnails you are using on your blocks. You might want to avoid enabling all of them and optimize and regenerate images. You can use the EWWW Image Optimizer for image optimization and the OMGF plugin for fonts. Additionally, you can use the WP Rocket plugin.
There are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you can check some of them

You can choose what version you want and what suits you.
Thank you!
Hello,
You have the mobile theme plugin activated; please deactivate it and clear the cache.
Using our theme, you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ The option that you need to use.
Suppose you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer. In that case, when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc, so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY.
So, the mobile responsive is what you see when that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
The Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin cannot.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page, you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
Thank you!
ello,
We recommend WPML plugin for translations: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/
You need to translate the English (original language) the template for each language in part – https://i.imgur.com/CDmeHCf.png you should have them for each language cloud template – https://i.imgur.com/4agmUtg.png
A much simpler and faster alternative is to duplicate the cloud template you want to use in another language, edit it and select the desired language – https://i.imgur.com/z1CqgBo.png (edit the name) – https://i.imgur.com/dPX8ROs.png – https://i.imgur.com/Lc81IgP.png This method needs to be used to translate all cloud templates.
The pages are created with tagDiv Composer which is a page builder, when WPML is used it cannot translate everything that was built with the page builder and must be edited for each language separately. Please open the page in the editor and click on translate – https://i.imgur.com/TXH6y1c.png. After, if you duplicate the template, you can edit it to change the logo, menu, and whatever you want.
When you make the corrections, make sure you are on the page with the language you are editing, and if you use the cache, or object cache, please clear it.
Please check this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/missing-strings-on-wpml/
Thank you!
I hope you are well.
We have a weird issue with the logo not showing at our site.
We have created a staging site at https://avg191124.wpenginepowered.com/ (popup login credentials are demo and avg191124).
We have installed and activated the Newspaper theme and the Chained News demo https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_chained_news_pro/
We use the latest version 12.6.8
I set the logo at the theme settings at https://avg191124.wpenginepowered.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_panel (tried 2 different logos) and they do not show up at the frontend.
Needless to say, I purge cache at https://avg191124.wpenginepowered.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wpengine-common&tab=caching and I also test it as a logged in user but the default logo keeps showing up.
I also tried to hide the “Sign in” option at the theme settings and it still shows up!
It would be great if you could have a look and let me know why the logo does not show up at https://avg191124.wpenginepowered.com/
Thanks in advance.
PS. Needless to say, I can provide you administrator access and the purchase code via a private message (I would prefer not to share them via a forum).
Hi, I have followed your instructions, deactivated the plugins and deleted the cache and I still can’t solve the problem. I have also noticed that this problem also affects the navigation arrows in the top menu.
Can you fix it? Thanks

Hello,
Have you checked for a plugin conflict? Please deactivate ALL plugins, including wp bakery, except tagDiv ones; also, if you use a child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache, and try again.
Thank you!

Hi,
If the image is blurry, please check that it is full-size when you upload it at https://www.screencast.com/t/Oxue274e and clear the cache.
Thank you!
Hello,
For this, I recommend using this option cache on the blocks: https://forum.tagdiv.com/use-flex-blocks-cache-option/. I think this will help you with those queries.
Thank you!
Hello.
Yes, this issue is caused by the cache plugin, please check this topic and try the suggestions https://wordpress.org/support/topic/caches-desktop-version-for-mobile-and-vice-versa/
Thank you!
Edit (why ever I can not edit my own post)
I have deactivated my cache plugin and delete my local chache, but the fonts are still show different.
As I want it: https://i.imgur.com/975fhiR.jpeg
As it is shown: https://i.imgur.com/9FifNJs.png
I deactivated the plugin and cleared the cache and it’s still not showing my mobile template on mobile
I created a separate template for mobile phones, but it’s also displaying on desktop versions. I’m using the W3 Total Cache plugin, and I suspect it’s causing the mobile template to display incorrectly. Has anyone experienced this issue and can suggest which function in the plugin to disable so that the Newspaper theme correctly detects the desktop and mobile templates?
Hi,
That could happen. The basic cloudflare setup as far as I know does not cache or deliver the content based on device/viewport. While this is not a problem for a responsive website, it will probably be a problem when using dedicated mobile content. From what I know they do provide cache by device type like so https://developers.cloudflare.com/automatic-platform-optimization/reference/cache-device-type/ But that is a premium service unfortunately. Other than that, I don’t recall seeing a working solution for using dedicated mobile content with cloudflare. In this case the solutions would be to either not use the mobile theme, or use cloudflare APO and activate cache by device type.
Thank you!
Hi,
Usually, this happens with cache plugins. If the cache plugin does not have mobile support then the mobile version can be delivered instead.
The solution would be to use the recommended WP Super Cache plugin instead and activate these settings (especially the mobile device support): https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Also, you can check this https://i.imgur.com/Es7nHNh.png
Also, this issue can be caused by some options that you have configured for the plugin can cause the issue.
Thank you!
Hello,
1. I recommend using php version 8.2, but we don’t have a specific guide for this.
2. and 3. We recommend using cloud templates and flex blocks instead of the standard templates and standard blocks, like blocks 1-25 or Big Grid Full or others. So please replace all the standard blocks and templates and disable the tagdiv Standard pack plugin.

Hi everyone,
We’ve been facing an issue with caching on our website, specifically with Cloudflare. We are using the mobile theme exclusively (no mixing of mobile with Google’s AMP version or desktop version). The problem we’re encountering is that Cloudflare caching seems to conflict with our mobile theme, sometimes breaking it while the desktop theme works fine.
We’ve tried multiple solutions, including using Cloudflare’s caching settings such as Cache Everything and Standard Cache Level, along with Bypass Cache on Cookie and other strategies for mobile-specific caching, but we haven’t been able to successfully get the mobile theme to function properly without issues. Here’s the specific code we used in an attempt to address this problem:
// Cloudflare Worker code to bypass cache for mobile devices
export default {
async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
let userAgent = request.headers.get(‘User-Agent’);
if (userAgent && /Mobile|Android|iPhone/i.test(userAgent)) {
// Mobile logic – Bypass cache for mobile users
return fetch(request, { cache: ‘no-store’ }); // Ensures the cache is bypassed
} else {
// Desktop logic – Allow caching for desktop users
return fetch(request);
}
},
};
We’ve applied this code to bypass cache for mobile devices, and tried several approaches using Cloudflare’s Bypass Cache on Cookie option, but the problem persists. The mobile theme works intermittently, sometimes caching properly and sometimes breaking.
Additionally, we’ve been wondering if there is a distinct mobile theme other than the one we’ve been using that might be causing this issue. If anyone knows about a different mobile theme or specific settings for mobile theme caching that we might have missed, we would appreciate any guidance.
What we are looking for:
We are seeking advice from anyone who has faced a similar problem or knows how to properly configure Cloudflare for caching mobile themes while ensuring they load properly for users. Specifically, we are trying to:
Cache the mobile version correctly without affecting the desktop theme.
Ensure that the mobile theme doesn’t break due to cache conflicts.
Identify any additional configuration steps or tools that might help in fixing this issue.
Any help or insights on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
For the last 24 hours, I’ve been trying to get my mobile template to show up via miixtapechiick.com
and it refuses to show up on mobile. I do not have the mobile plugin activated. I have looked up countless tutorials and can’t seem to find the answer. I really need this to work so my website can pass the speed test. it is horrible right now, scoring at 38 despite downloading WP Rocket (godaddy will not let me download WP Super Cache due to security issues)
Hello,
We are experiencing serious performance issues on our website due to the td-composer module in the Newspaper theme. We have identified that this module is the main cause of the extremely high Time to First Byte (TTFB) on our pages, significantly affecting the user experience.
web: https://fusionasturias.com
Technical Details:
• Server: VPS with optimized configuration.
• Web Server: Nginx (no Apache).
• PHP: Version 8.3 (FPM enabled).
• WordPress: Version 6.7.1.
• Cache Optimization: Using WP Rocket with Redis enabled.
• Compression: Brotli and GZIP active.
• Object Cache: Redis configured.
Observations:
1. We conducted several performance tests using tools like WebPageTest, which showed that the time it takes to load the initial HTML is excessively high. (See attached screenshot).
2. A more detailed analysis using a code profiler plugin confirmed that td-composer accounts for over 3 seconds of the total load time on each request. (See second attached screenshot).
3. This issue occurs even on simple pages without many dynamic elements, indicating that the problem is directly related to the module or its integration with the theme.
4. We updated our site design at the end of the summer. Previously, we used the Default PRO design, but now we’ve configured the site using the Pulses-PRO design. We wonder if residual configurations or data from the previous design might be “bloating” the database or negatively impacting performance.
5. We suspect that the Cloud Templates used in the current design might also contribute to the high load times. Could these be affecting performance?
Questions:
1. Are there specific configuration recommendations for Nginx + PHP 8.3 environments that could help improve the module’s response times?
2. Is it possible to disable or replace certain functionalities of the module without compromising the design integrity?
3. Could Cloud Templates be a cause of the slow performance? If so, how can we optimize them?
4. Is there any tool or recommended method to clean up residual configurations or data from previous designs that might be affecting the new one?
We would greatly appreciate any guidance or solutions you can provide.
Please find the test results attached to help diagnose the issue.

Thanks for the tip, I moved it to the second option in wprocket instead of remove unused css option. But I deleted the mobile theme plugin already as it was not refreshing the content even after clearing cache. This is why you are seeing desktop option.
Please also let me know if the design is still showing broken on your end after changing to load CSS asynchronously option.
Thank you.
Hi,
The mobile can’t have serious caching issues, because the theme doesn’t have a cache. In normal circumstances it would be impossible for a deactivated plugin to still function.
If I check the website now, I get the correct desktop version https://prnt.sc/aoTMyo8dzEX- and the same version on mobile (responsive) https://prnt.sc/8zNRk7pgiFzn
But if I refresh the page a few times, the design gets broken. As I see it the mobile theme is not active however, it’s just the design of the desktop page getting broken. This is not the mobile theme https://prnt.sc/ajvt4_Uv9xz5
And if I add the design back, it looks fine – https://prnt.sc/3YjuNvepe5XW
As I see it the wp rocket feature to remove the unused CSS is removing much more than it should. I suggest switching to the other option https://prnt.sc/WFHuk2xLzUcA Then clear all caches again and it should be fine.
Let me know.
Thank you!
