Hello,
In order to increase your site speed, you need to follow this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
you will have to use the speedbooster plugin to move render blocks to footer. Speedbooster will not work with all your plugins as it has a compatibility list in it’s code and some of your plugins are not compatible with it. There is a workaround however. you can remove this code: http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh
As for cdn and minify, we also use cludflare.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello cookingpanda,
Unfortunately, if you want to move your post pagination, please notice that it is not a simple task and implies more additional customizations and require custom work. If you want to display more levels in our theme and if you are not aware the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to implement this for you because we cannot provide custom services at the moment, sorry!
Below, I gave you an example if you want to change the arrow design. It is necessary to use a bit of CSS to implement this on your theme. Please check the code below and try to implement this to your side and you should do in the same way for the previous arrow if you need this.
.page-nav a:last-child {
background-image: url('https://cdn0.iconfinder.com/data/icons/arrows-volume-4/48/246-128.png');
background-size: 33px 30px;
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}
.td-icon-menu-right:before {
content: '';
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/9hhTjyz2H44G
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message and for your understanding!
Hello,
I had run a test on http://gtmetrix.com/ for my site: http://voiceoftrust.in using the Newspaper theme version 6.6.5, and the report shows very low percentage Check: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/voiceoftrust.in/zTS8Y33v (I am using Digital Ocean Cloud Server for this this site) but when I test the demo site it should very high percentage Check: https://gtmetrix.com/reports/demo.tagdiv.com/kLi9K6bo ..? Why is that
Plugins I am using:

I see you are using a CDN Service (which CDN?)as well also your JS,CSS,HTML are minified but mine is not even though I am using Cloudflair CDN.
Please help, I am really struggling to rank my site. Can you please help me optimize the site so that I can lower down the loading time as well.
Hello wash,
This issue is known when using CDN or loading fonts from a different source.
Take a look at this: http://screencast.com/t/AMjW530CSH6 and this: http://screencast.com/t/dLjEUGGwQUZ
The solution to this issue is simple. You will need to add some code to your .htaccess file like this post suggests: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/

Hello pedroreis,
I have checked your website and I saw that your Google Ads seem to work as expected -> http://screencast.com/t/kbEhi8PSic This kind of problem might be caused by the Cloudflare rocket loader and we recommend to be disabled…please consult our tutorial and make sure that you have respected these settings for the best result -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ and also, please ensure that you have respected the Google Adsense policy.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
Please disable all your plugins except visual composer as you most likely have plugin conflicts. Also make sure you clear your cache and reset cdn if you use it.
Let us know if you still encounter the issue afterwards. I have inspected your website but could not find the issue you suggested.
Thank you!
Hi,
The theme doesn’t come with a cache, if you use a cache plugin or cdn (ex. cloudflare) make sure you clear it and check again. If this doesn’t help please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com , include a link to this conversation and provide wp-admin and ftp access so we can take a look.
Thank you!

Hello,
It could be a plugin conflict. I have checked your website again but everything seems to display fine. If you still encounter this error, please clear your cache and reset CDN if you use it. You can also try to disable all your plugins except visual composer.
Thank you!
Thanks for the replies. I am on SiteGround’s “Go Geek” shared hosting plan (https://www.siteground.com/web-hosting.htm). I don’t have much stats on the server, but it’s the best that I can afford. I’m thinking of switching to Amazon AWS but would like to make sure I’ve exhausted all other options.
I have followed many optimization guides that I’ve found online as well as TagDiv’s own guides. The only thing that I haven’t done is use WP Supercache, I was using a different one. I’ve also recently signed up for MaxCDN, but that didn’t help with the resource issues either. I just now implemented Disqus as I’ve read that can help too. Oh, and I wasn’t able to use pagespeed as my sharing plugin isn’t compatible, I can disable that plugin for testing purposes.
I get anywhere from 150-300k visitors a month depending on the strength of the box office. Most come from Google searches. SiteGround says that it’s not a visitor issue for the resources though.
But really, for the most part, my site is optimized. Yet SiteGround says that it was using three times more resources on the Newspaper theme than the basic one it’s running now.
I’d like to go back to Newspaper, but doubt that WP Supercache, Disqus and pagespeed will make that much difference, will it???
If you are using Adsense NEVER minify any JS. If is possible css either. Only use HTML minification .
in cloudflare deactivate everything and set CDN only.
Another thing, use similar ads positions like before you switch to newspaper
And the last thing, every january are less advertisers
In our case we’re a 33 year old publishing firm with dedicated server, so no need for external service. We use mod_pagespeed and server side caching, which caches our images but also auto converts to bleeding edge formats like “webp” for Chrome and Android, from our highly optimized jpeg images done here in Photoshop.
But most folks don’t spend $700+ a month on dedicated box 🙂
Of course, in your case if a plugin makes a local featured image, it then adds it to the gallery so that WP can generate the thumbs, which are NOT done from external URL. So, that might defeat the purpose of what you’re trying to do. You would need to build some kind of custom CDN hook to load the image from CDN into your post, then the plugin we use would make THAT a featured image and generate the thumbs for local loading on indexes.
Sorry not a better answer …. 🙂
I’ve tried a few plugins, they all give the same result. About copyrights issues – all images are legit, my aim is to reduce server load. I’m using http://cloudinary.com/ service. It’s a great service providing compression and CDN for your files (there is also a free plan), so instead of hosting your images on your local server, you can host them on the cloud server. In such a way you gain point in page speed, in cache and in server load time (noting that the Newspaper theme uses Lazy Load as well). If you are putting an image in your post, I recommend using this service. In my case, I want the featured image to be loaded from an external URL. Maybe eventually I will find something.
We’ve been using preview fonts from myfonts.com in our Newspaper6 site, currently visible at http://79.170.40.247/wellbeingofwomen.org.uk/
We now have a myfonts.com preview bar at the top of the site that we can’t seem to remove.
We have now purchased the fonts we need, but we’re not sure what to do next.
The blue bar seems to appear due to these lines of code in our head tag:

However, we’re not adding this code ourselves. It’s not visible in View Source, so it seems to be added dynamically by the Newspaper6 theme.
We’re not entirely of the steps we took to get to this stage, but we’re guessing it was via the Custom Fonts page in the Theme Panel – either in the ‘Custom font files’ section, or the ‘Typekit.com Fonts’ section.
In the ‘Typekit.com Fonts’ section, we did enter some custom javascript that we got from myfonts.com (not sure if this would even work). We have since replaced that with an empty script tag, but the preview bar remains at the top of the site.
How can we remove this preview bar?
Hi
I’ve checked your site and seams that the css is missing. This could be caused by a plugin which conflict with the theme so you can try to deactivate all plugin except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge the cdn files if you’re using and test again.
If the problem persist try to update the theme at the current version available on themeforest following the steps indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/
Thanks!
Hello JBH,
1) Good to update to latest version but also remember to update the included plugins too! Please update your theme to the latest version using this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Also, update your plugins: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/. Remove the current version and install the new version which comes with the theme. Clear all cache and try it again and see how it works and check if the error reappears.
2)This kind of problem might be caused by the conflicting plugins. Please try to disable all the active plugins, except Visual Composer and instal only the plugins that come bundled with our theme. Also, if you use CDN files, please purge them and disable this option and check it again and see how it works.
3)If you want to exclude ‘no comments’, it is necessary to use a bit of CSS to hide it. Please try the code below and add it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.
.td-comments-title-wrap {
display:none;
}
Hope that helps and let us know how it goes!
If you need more assistance in this regard, please provide your website URL and provide more details about your desired changes.
Thank you for the message!
Hello ajtj,
I have checked your website and saw your problem with the featured image. Please try to disable all the active plugins, clear all cache and instal only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the plugins in conflict. Also, if you are using a CDN files, please purge them and disable and try again and see how it works. If your problem is still there after these changes, please let us know.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hi,
Please also check without plugins and make sure that you empty all caches and clear CDN if you use any. If it’s still not working please provide wp and ftp access so we can check your site.
Thanks!

Hello,
The bottom side of this post: http://fightpassport.com/mma-workouts-and-nutrition/supplements-for-muay-thai-bjj-mma/6/ appears to be in full width and this is a big request we always get by our users and everyone wants to have it like so. That is why i assumed you modified the theme to have it like this. If you have not modified anything that means that it could be a plugin compatibility issue.
Please disable all your plugins except visual composer, clear your cache and purge cdn files. Then check the error again.
Let us know if the problem is still there.
Thank you!
Hi
The footer structure is the same as in 6.6.3 version and the informations added in Footer info content should be displayed fine: http://screencast.com/t/zoDGZ17dkzT – http://screencast.com/t/pFXvwVGq1n
I’ve checked your site and in its source code doesn’t appear anything to be displayed which means that the theme does not have any content to output there or something prevent the content from footer to be displayed. Please make sure that you updated the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using and test again.
If you still can’t manage to solve this issue please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.
Thanks!
