Hi,
If the issue is still present after modifying the code in the child theme (the child theme must be active) then it would be best to make the modification in the main theme stylesheet, as this method works properly for you.
For me it does not seem to happen anymore at the moment

Thanks
Hello,
All the files which can be overwritten in Child Theme can be found here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Leave the theme stylesheet unmodified. Copy the section of code as shown in the child theme stylesheet. Modify it in the child theme only. Then make tests to see if everything works properly, and there is no flashing.
Thanks
Hi,
There have been many changes since version 7.7. The latest theme version is 8.1.1 at the moment. In version 8 the tagDiv composer was introduced as the main page builder
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
This editor can have an impact on pages created with Visual composer. It is activated by default when the theme is updated or installed. Simply deactivate it in the plugins section and the website should display properly.
Also custom code or theme modifications you might be using with the current version, might not work properly with the latest update. The child theme if used, might need adjustments as well. Use this guide to update the theme
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
I see that currently that you are using version 8.1 on the website. There are no issues with the homepage that I can see.
That flash could be caused by a plugin conflict. Try deactivating all plugins except theme plugins as a test. Clear any caching installed after this. Then check if the issue is still happening.
Thanks
OK. Should i change the #222 also to #fff in the main style.css sheet? I dont think so, otherwise it wont make any sense
Do i need to activate the Child Theme in some way? I did make the change, but no result.

I had this code and it worked fine, but with the theme update all was gone.
Can i add this somewhere else where it stays after an update? Child Theme for example?
Please help.
Hi, What files are changed in the last 8.1.1 release?
I do not find changelog file.
The changes are also for child theme?
I see only:
Version 8.1.1 – October 18, 2017
–> improvement: we updated Visual Composer to the latest version
–> improvement: Updated Revolution Slider to the latest version
–> fix: XSS Security issue
Thanks.
Hi,
You could copy just the section of code that needs modifying, in the child theme. Like in this example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/zVxGlSuyte
– https://www.screencast.com/t/K6PexGiv
An additional accolade is necessary at the end of the code in this case.
Thanks
Hi,
Then you can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information, so we can take a look. Paste a link to this topic in your email.
Try previously to deactivate all plugins except theme plugins, and clear all caching. If you use custom code in the theme panel or made modifications to the theme files, check that as well. Switch to the main theme if you use a child theme.
Like I mentioned, usually plugins cause image problems and conflicts. Deactivating them all could resolve the issue.
Then enable them one at a time, and possibly identify the one responsible.
Thanks
Hello DanielB,
Notice that the Bbpress uses only the default WordPress functionality for Login widget. Ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme and also, install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files and rule out any conflicting plugins. Clear all your caches and check the results. Also, ensure that you are using the latest child theme version which comes bundled with the latest theme packet.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Simply enter the code in Theme panel->Custom CSS code section, or in a child theme stylesheet if you use one. There is no need to modify theme files in this case.
Thanks
Thank you. But the style.css child folder is ofcourse empty and i dont know from where to grab the code exactly. Can you please provide the code for me so i can paste it in the child theme style folder? That would be great.
Thanks!
Hi,
There seem to be many errors on the website at the moment
– https://www.screencast.com/t/sGKJ3rNhr
A suggestion would be to make a clean install by FTP
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Deactivate all plugins except theme provided plugins, clear all caching. Remove or check any custom code in the theme panel. Do not modify any of the theme files. If you use a child theme, deactivate it as well.
Check the theme system status and these parameters
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Basically these are the theme requirements along with the mentioned parameters
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
The theme and theme plugins should work properly under these circumstances.
Thanks
Hi,
Modifications to the actual theme files will have to be made after each update. The update means replacing the previous them files. It will have to be made after each update. You could create a child theme and insert the code in the child theme stylesheet, this will not be affected by the theme update. Copy the section of code you are modifying in the child theme stylesheet and make some tests

Hello, I tried on the main theme and it’s working… no plug in seems to interferate, it’s something like the child theme doesn’t include the proper js library I guess ? any ideas ?
thanks very much..
Hello DanielB,
Try to disable the child theme and check the results. Clear all the caches and check the results. Also, if you are using some untested plugins try to disable all of them, leave just only requested plugins to be active and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
We did not have any similar reports. It would be helpful if you could provide some more details, maybe some screenshots. Is it just the preview or the post as well after publishing it. Provide a link to such a post with the problem if possible.
If you have tested and it is not plugins, it could be custom code or a child theme.
Thanks
Ah I see! That makes sense.
So whats the advantage of using the child theme?
Do you recommend to use the parent theme?
If I want to use the parent theme from now, can I just activate the parent theme and all the setting remains??
Please let me know.
Hi,
The custom code will be saved in the database. I believe you can find it in the in the wp_options table->td_011 option name. This will ensure that it will be kept safe during an update for example. If you use a child theme you could enter the custom code there, if you want to.
Thanks
ohh just one thing I use a child theme ! maybe i need to add something in the function.php ??
Hello,
I’m seeing this on the sidebar of my homepage: https://i.imgur.com/C89R9tu.jpg
It seems the sidebar has been emptied from almost all its widgets: https://i.imgur.com/3ZrDGbs.jpg
Did it happen because I switched from Newspaper child-theme to Twenty Seventeen before getting back to Newspaper-child theme? How do I restore my sidebar in its previous state?
Where can we indicate sensible data like site URL, etc.? Everything is public here.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Florence.
Hello,
I have always written custom CSS codes from the “Theme panel” so I never edited the actual file (style.css) using FTP.
Now I checked the file and found that there is no codes at all in style.css…
I am using a child theme so I even checked the parent theme’s style.css but there isn’t any codes that I wrote from the Theme panel…
How can I locate the file which contains the custom CSS codes that I wrote??
Hi,
You will have to edit and make the modifications to the actual header templates, not the main header file
– https://www.screencast.com/t/U7nPNZTujn
The header templates can be customized through a child theme
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks
Hi there,
i installed a demo-design without any content and modified this demo-design. Now i would like to remove all demo-references in the sourcecode of the pages and also i would like to remove the setting in the backend that this site is based on a “installed” demo. Is there a way to fork / child (theme) design an existing demo-style and give it my own style name? Or is it possible to remove the demo-references in my installation somehow?
Thanks, Dan
