Hello pbast, Kayra,
Please try to do a fresh install for your side, clear your old version and install again the latest version of the theme only via FTP and ensure that you have fully updated the entire theme, without any errors. Also, please updated again all your plugins, clear all your caches, purge CDN files if you are using CDN and test it again. I have checked on my side and everything seems to work as properly. Please notice that the problem is on your side and not come from the theme.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks.

Hello MM-Berlin,
I have tested on my side and everything seems to work as expected. Please ensure that you have right updated your theme via FTP, clear all your caches and test it again. Also, please ensure that you are using only our tested plugins to rule out the conflicting plugins if you are using untested plugins. So, if your problem is still there, please provide your website URL and also, provide more useful screenshots with your theme behaviour so I can inspect it closer and also, so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello Kayra,
Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme Newspaper (7.0.1), Visual Composer (4.11.2) in order to achieve best results. Also, please clear all your caches and test it again. If your problem is still there after these, try to re-update your theme only VIA FTP, update all your plugins and test it again and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for your understanding!
Thats ok
this may help you
http://makeaweblog.com/w3-total-cache-settings/
Hi,
Please make sure you deactivate all other plugin except visual composer and clear your cache and CDN files if you use it. Then please activate the mobile theme first. We will also investigate this issue further.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks.
Salut ade,
Recomandarea noastra pentru actualizarea temei este metoda 1, adica prin FTP deoarece este cea mai sigura cale prin care se poate actualiza tema. Zic acest lucru deoarece daca se face actualizarea prin alte metode, pot aparea probleme la instalare si este posibilitatea ca tema sa nu fie complet instalata si sa nu functioneze corespunzator. Te rog sa te asiguri ca ai ultima versiune de tema (Newspaper 7.0.1) deoarece in acest ultim update a fost rezolvata si problema cu related articles. Pentru mai multe informatii despre imbunatatirile temei pentru fiecare update in parte, te rog sa consulti acest link, mai spre sfarsitul paginii la sectiunea CHANGELOG, aici -> http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609 Deasemenea, asigurate ca ai golit toata memoria cache si testeaza din nou si verifica rezultatele.
Multumesc pentru intelegere!
O zi faina in continuare!
I was using zen cache on my precedent theme and I really liked it. I have tried the W3 Total cache, but this plugin wasn’t compatible with the theme I was using. I would like to try it though with the newspaper.
Can you send me a screenshot of the way you have set the W3 total cache so I can try it?
Thank you
Tagdiv recommends WP Super Cache, but im using W3 Total Cache which is very advanced and good for high performance websites i have configured it to make everything work pefect
Hello colgate,
First of all, thank you for your kinds words and thank you for your appreciations.
For your first question, please notice that this is the normal/default behaviour for our new mobile theme. If you want to change the filter for Big Grid feature, you have to alter the code from the front-page.php core file, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/XvSBymcfGof Please notice that this is not a simple task and if you want to set the filter only from particular category you will have to add other conditions in order to achieve as you wish. Please notice that if you want to change the filter of the Big Grid (for example to be for latest), on your front page you will get the twice posts because the latest articles module will display you the latest posts. So, if you want to display more levels in our theme and your are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!
For your second request, please notice that the WP Fastest Cache plugin is not tested with our theme and we have no idea about the theme behaviour with this type of plugin and also we cannot say for sure if it will work 100% with our theme. Also, please notice that we recommend using the WP Super Cache because this plugin is tested with our theme and works as properly.
For your third request, please notice that the speed booster is an optional plugin and it is tested only with these plugins – http://screencast.com/t/hcjLnOqh4i2 and if you use other plugins it will be automatically disabled. A lot of people install the plugin without knowing what it does and after that they add many plugins and some of the them are not written fine so the developer took this decision. If you want to always enable speed booster, delete this code from speed booster file: http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh Also, for more information about our speed booster plugin, please check our tutorial here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Finally, if you want to edit de mobile template for new mobile theme, please notice that you will have to edit the mobile folder from your theme which contains all the necessary files for this mobile theme, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/1SW50X4Dvto
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!

Let me know how it goes and if the problem persist please provide a valid url where I can inspect it closer.
Thanks!
Hello kanstan,
I have checked your source page and also I have noticed that you are using a lot of untested plugins, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/i36WgAB9wxFj Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active (4.11.2 version), clear all your caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme to rule out the conflicting plugins. It is possible that your untested plugins to interact with our theme and might cause a lot of unknown issues. Please try the theme without these and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank your for your understanding!
Hello Bogdan B
Thanks for your reply.
1) So if I clear all the caches then the problem will be solved?
2) Sorry, let me translate it.
The system information says: the header of the mobile theme plugin is incorrect, and the download of plugin failed (or be forbiddened). I did not change any setup before I installed the mobile theme plugin, but it just did not work.I really want to try the new function, so help me fix this:)
Best Regards
Castle Yen
Like I mentioned in another post I’m having the exact same issue as shooter here.
The menu at the top of the site is how it looks on my blog too. Like I said, I disabled W3 Total cache and the problem seemed to be solved, but then it reappeared.
Devs, can you kindly look into this urgently as I see more and more threads being created for the same issue.
Ok, after disabling W3 Total cache we started with WP Super Cache and the issue reappeared.
So we disabled that also and the issue still persists. This is turning out to be a major pain as we are unable to figure out what might be causing this….
If you had to venture a guess, what could be the most probable reason for this issue? Everything was working okay before upgrading the theme to 7.0 version.
Anything that can point us in a direction to investigate can help. Thanks.
WP cache plugin, or wp-config whatever 🙂
You should use a caching plugin cause your website is very slow
i have never seen anyone blog about sea, its good to see yours
Thank you for the proposition:) You mean with the cache plugin?
By the way, your website is very nice!
Here is mine, http://cruisingsea.com
Yes , i have same problem.
I cleared all cache.
I installed theme twice.
I installed Visual Composer 4 time.
Disabled all plug’in-s except Visual Composer.
Nothing is worked.
Right now , it is useless.
I have cleared my browser cache and I have cleared the
W3 Total Cache from the website. I do not use a CDN or or hosting cache.
I have cleared these all again and enabled the mobile theme and still have this issue.
1. thanks
2. Is there any chance you may consider adding vk.com share buttom in future? It would also be great if you could add a sharing possibility on the pictures.
3 and 4. It is named in the same way. So again. These are the steps that I do:
step 1. I open functions.php in the child folder https://gyazo.com/fea2016a1f0673e2b4633e1de3acb0a8
step 2. I add the code in the end of the file https://gyazo.com/d3ac607eb8cca0ca871b36e3305e97c8
step 3. nothing happens
If I add the same code in functions.php which is placed in codebase folder — everything works properly. So the question remains — what have I done wrong? The names of the files are the same in both folders child and codebase.
5. Is there any chance speed booster will be combitable with this plugin in future https://wordpress.org/plugins/cloudflare-flexible-ssl/ ? But thanks for the instructions. Now speed booster is active
6. It seems I asked the question improperly. I know that there is different crop options in different template. I meant – can you please let me know how to set different crop size to featured image in Default post template?
7. Sorry. It seems I wasn’t clear with my question at all. Let me build my question in a different way. The issue is the following, let’s say I have the article about Obama. And I set it to 3 different sections – I made the post featured + I put in Politics category and World category. It means that the article about Obama will appear on the home page 3 times. First time in the section with Featured posts. Second time in the section with Politics. Third time in section with World news. The question is how to avoid duplicating posts on the home page when the post is placed in different categories?
8. thanks. My hosting provided that he installed xcache on the server. Is it ok or it is better to ask him remove it and install APC for better performance of Newspaper theme?
9. compression is allowed at the hosting, but he told be that it is not enabled as CLoudFLare do gzip compression by default. Should I ask him to enable additional gzip compression at the server or the compression provided by CF is enough?
10. thanks
11. thanks. It helped for most of the files, accept three files:
• jquer
• jquery-migrate
• wpgeo
Google still detects them. Do you know how to fix this? This time I pasted the code in the correct place

Hi again,
If I follow the instruction on the documentation to install the WP cache plugin, then why would I need to hire a freelancer??
Thank you!
I have a funny issue with mobile website version of articles displayed on low resolution (less than FullHD) on desktop browser (mac with safari/chrome and firefox).
I don’t use a cache plugin, I use nginx / redis full-page cache.
The mobile plugin might be a good idea but it currently creates many issues. I understand that you can’t test every possible server setup and all plugins, I am a still a little bit disappointed by this new feature.
Yes issue still there. Try your self http://kapten110.96.lt/ this is a new website on new host i created it just to be sure that problem isn’t related to my server or cache. If you have WordPress site just change the language to Arabic “which is RTL” and see the result. It’s not the only issue that is related to RTL site language. All sliders displays white spaces instead of images and post style 8 doesn’t show featured image on mobile device.
Hi tagDiv team,
First of all, the new mobile theme is superb and for that I really congratulate you for your hard work.
First- The update went without any issues, however I need to know how to change the top grid from Featured to the Latest, preferably from a particular category, if possible, if not the latest from all will do for now.
“top grid – displays 3 featured posts (posts included in the Featured category)”
Second – Do you still recommend to use WP Super Cache with your latest theme update v7.0.1? I have used the WP Fastest Cache and I had some issues after the update, it kept showing the Desktop version instead of the mobile version, so I had to disable it.
Third- The Speed Booster is not working when these and other plugins are active:
-Add Meta Tags
-Advanced Custom Fields
-Coming Soon Page & Maintenance Mode by SeedProd
-Disqus Comment System
-and other plugins
It would be great idea to make the Speed Booster compatible with all plugins and also add CDN and also other caching options and features, this will help speeds up the theme even more, and will also avoid experiencing any errors from other cache plugins.
Finally – how to edit the mobile template? Which file?
Many thanks for the great work
Hi
The theme is tested and works fine if the parameters from system status have the values indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ There are also other things which may slow down your wp-admin. If you have lots of plugins active they will request additional resources so they may slow don the site. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test again.
I hope this helps.
Thanks!
