Hi urishtaujjain, those are links from the theme that are loading the theme css. I believe that you receive some recommendation to optimize those links, right? This can be done using an optimization plugin, most of the time is a cache plugin that provide this functionality (use the options for minify the css and cache browser). Also you can use a Cloudflare (CDN) to improve better the speed and security – https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/
Thank you!
Hello!
Check all these requirements for the theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
Please note that page speed is not covered by the support team: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-support/
Our developers are aware of this issue and try to synthesize the composer, which is big, and fix the major problems of the theme and speed.
I recommend you use fewer features on the page, so the requests will be less as well.
Improving page speed in WordPress is crucial for providing a better user experience and optimizing your website for search engine rankings. Here are some tips to help you enhance your WordPress site’s page speed:
Optimize Images: Compress images before uploading them to your WordPress site. You can use plugins like WP Smush or EWWW Image Optimizer to automatically optimize images without losing quality.
Utilize Caching: Implement caching to reduce server load and speed up page loading times. WordPress caching plugins like WP Super Cache or W3 Total Cache can generate static HTML files of your pages to serve users instead of dynamically generating them each time.
Minify CSS and JavaScript: Minify your CSS and JavaScript files to remove unnecessary characters and reduce file sizes. This can be done manually or through plugins like Autoptimize or W3 Total Cache.
Enable GZIP Compression: Enable GZIP compression on your server to reduce the size of files sent from your server to users’ browsers. Most hosting providers offer GZIP compression, but you can also enable it through plugins like WP Rocket or W3 Total Cache.
Optimize Database: Regularly clean up and optimize your WordPress database to remove unnecessary data and improve performance. You can use plugins like WP-Optimize to automate this process.
Limit External Requests: Minimize the number of external requests your website makes by reducing the use of external scripts and widgets. Each external request adds overhead to your page’s loading time.
Enable Lazy Loading: Implement lazy loading for images, videos, and iframes so that they are only loaded when they are visible on the user’s screen. This can significantly reduce initial page loading times.
Optimize Server Response Time: Choose a reliable hosting provider with fast server response times. Consider using a content delivery network (CDN) to serve your content from servers closer to your users.
Regularly Update Plugins and Themes: Keep your WordPress core, plugins, and themes updated to the latest versions to ensure compatibility with the latest performance optimizations and security patches.
Ads can significantly impact the speed of your WordPress website since they often involve loading external resources and scripts. You can try to limit the number of ads, optimize ad sizes and formats, and implement lazy loading on your ads.
By following these tips, you can significantly improve the page speed of your WordPress website, leading to better user engagement, higher search engine rankings, and overall improved performance.
Thank you!
I also changed the home page with a new one for test purposes. Again it does not show up, the old home page shows. I purged the cache but to no avail. I am using CDN
Hi,
Installing a prebuilt website does not guarantee that you will have the same page speed; however, optimization configurations are necessary for it both on the server and the site.
There are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

We use the following cache:
On server:
Varnish and Redis
CDN:
Cloudflare
On website:
WP-rocket
Hello!
Please use cloud templates. Edit the mobile viewport of the homepage, for example, and build the top menu, or copy and paste the row. I recommend using the shortcode “Mobile horizontal menu” that is scrollable: https://app.screencast.com/vAzcDNrV3jZlI
Thank you!
Hello,
The mentioned options are in WP Super Cache plugin, but if you want you can use a different cache plugin.
The CDN from Siteground should be ok, but we usually recommend this one – https://www.cloudflare.com/
Thank you!
Where i can see this?
Also, I already have a CDN with Siteground. Do you recommend me to download Cloudfare or leave it like it is?
Thanks.
Hello,
I believe that you are referring that the pages sped has dropped, this is normal since the structure is different and the site needs to be re-optimized.
Please use CDN for the website, this will make it faster – https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ you can use the options from the last version and disable the mobile header on desktop and desktop header on mobile (this can be done for the sticky headers, but make sure that the mobile cache option is enabled – https://i.imgur.com/vgI7fdR.png) – https://i.imgur.com/FMejmEf.jpg – https://i.imgur.com/hTWwMFY.png also uses those options – https://i.imgur.com/WoLDdB9.png – https://i.imgur.com/tqFRWHX.png and you can enable the option to use webp format for thumbs – https://i.imgur.com/ZOg8cCq.png (those need to be generated with a dedicate plugin).
Thank you!
Hi,
For the problem with the author links, maybe the author archives are disabled in the Yoast plugin; if they are, author links will be redirected to the homepage. Check if that is the case: http://prntscr.com/mbwwuk -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/general-options-may-interfere-newspaper-theme/ after that clear all cache, purge CDN(if you are using) and check the results.
For author template, please make sure that the cloud template is set global -> https://i.imgur.com/BhXV265.png
Thank you!
Hello @spookyisles,
Please check our guide https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ and check the settings.
Thank you!

Here is the latest issue. I cleaned cookies, cache, CDN cache, LiteSpeed cache and for half an hour that’s what appears when I enter the site from a browser on 27 inch screen.
Hi,
I recommend letting only the LiteSpeed and CDN. It is not recommend to use some many plugins for optimize and cache
Thank you!
Hello,
I recommend creating mobile pages and templates and disabling the mobile theme plugin.
Also, if you run ads on your website, I recommend using the WP Rocket plugin to optimize the scripts.

I have redesigned my website elcineenlasombra.com with the Newspaper 12 template. I have a very big problem with the slowness of the page. The site now loads very slowly and sometimes does not even load at all. This is a general problem on the page. Just browse through it a little to see it. I’m trying to solve it, but so far I haven’t found the solution. The hosting company has a very good reputation and the technology it uses is very good, I have installed a cache plugin, uninstalled all the plugins that are not essential, installed a CDN, etc. Can you help me?
Hello,
1. Yes, you can add the logo more near to the menu, but you need to set the row layout like this -> https://i.imgur.com/DMqn02Y.jpeg and stretch row https://i.imgur.com/29Aet0y.jpeg You can not delete the empty column, only the row that contains empty columns.
If you want to delete a row, you can delete a row with the empty column using the right click on the row icon -> https://i.imgur.com/JodWvlW.png -> https://i.imgur.com/e6bb8U5.png or using the drag and drop or you can simply click on the row and press the delete button from your keyboard -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Mai7iyEG The same steps are to delete the elements.
2. Please disable the mobile theme and amp plugins.
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.
3. Format need to be MP4, File size for embedded video should ideally be 500KB, as the ideal page size from Google’s standpoint is <1MB. File size of 1-2MB is acceptable.
Video duration should be no longer than 25 seconds.
4. You need to use a plugin that provides this option. Please check our guide -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/
5. The images are responsive; please let me know what you mean.
6. I recommend using the WP ROCKET plugin.
Also, we don’t recommend to using amp, because it is deprecated -> https://developer.bigcommerce.com/docs/storefront/wordpress/platform-integration/enabling-amp

7. I recommend using Duplicator plugin, but you can try other plugins from this list -> https://www.bluehost.com/blog/best-wordpress-backup-plugins/
8. Usually, the color and image are set on the row, so please edit with tagDiv Composer and select the row and go in the tab CSS, and there you can set it https://i.imgur.com/IkbGWUS.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/background-color-of-the-main-menu-be-changed/
Thank you!
Hi,
I am a newcomer to Newspaper theme.
I tried to activate tagDiv Composer, but got fatal error like the image link below.
https://cdn.kormedi.com/images/tagDiv_Composer_error_image_20240607.png
After that, I deactivated all the plugins, and tried to reinstall and reactivate tagDiv Composer, but got the same error.
Our website URL is https://test.kormedi.com/.
Could you help us?
Thanks.

Hi,
So, I understand that the problem was solved and caused by the CDN cache.
Have a great day!
Seems to be a CDN issue.
Thanks anyways
Hi Yuriy, I believe that you are referring to that movement when the page is loading, if so, this is until the page is loading and the style is applied.
Usually this can be resolved using some plugins as cache plugin (one of the best is WP Rocket, but there are also free plugins for cache as WP Super Cache, Litespeed …), CDN, a plugin to get/download locally the Google fonts to reduce the time loading from google – https://wordpress.org/plugins/host-webfonts-local/
Now for the block elements that are loading using ajax that is the only effect that the theme has right now, so if it’s not to your liking, it can be remove with some custom css and eventually it can be add a new css for a better user experience.
I hope this will help you!

Hello,
I see that you have many ads scripts. To optimize those, I recommend using the WP ROCKET plugin.
Also, we don’t recommend to using amp, because it is deprecated -> https://developer.bigcommerce.com/docs/storefront/wordpress/platform-integration/enabling-amp
