Hi,
Please switch to the main theme and clear caching again to see if the child theme does not affect the css in any way even if there is no code added, you could be using an older version of the child theme that could affect the site. Simply switch to the main theme and test again.
Thank you!
Hello,
We have not officially tested the mobile theme with a child theme so I cannot offer a precise answer. You will have to try and see if the result works or not from the child theme. We have not added any special implementation for the mobile child theme.
Thank you!
Hello Hassan Zia,
Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme and only the required plugins which come bundled with theme packet. Also, please make sure that you have the latest version of child theme wich come bundled with the theme. Please keep in mind that each demo from our list of demos is fully tested with the theme and we have not encountered any issue in this regard. Please try to make a new clean install from scratch and install only the theme with the required plugins and install the demo in the main theme and check the results. For more information about how you can install the demo, please consult here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hey there,
great Work, i really like your Theme!
It is really impressive, to see your child functionallity working so far. I added some custom code in wp-booster, which works perfectly, but if it comes to the mobile version, its messing me up.
Mobile version is using the same file “td_module_single_base”, but only the original file, not the child file.
Is there any solution to get some child customizations for the mobile Theme files?
I also want to change the mobile view of some static pages, not only adding content between ( sustainably ).
Another task is mobile translation. There is no translation working for mobile view.
Kind regards,
Stefan
Hello,
This is the most common javascript error we have encountered. It is in most cases created by plugin conflicts or javascript optimization or minify tools. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Then test again. Also check for any js minify/optimization as these tools can also create js errors.
Also child themes can also affect this if you have any custom code in there that is not added properly or simply because the child theme was not updated.
Thank you!
Hi Amit. i already did that. i cleared all cache , uninstalled the demo and installed it again but the same scenario happened twice. i am not even using child theme just to rule out any issue specific to child theme.
Hello Hassan Zla,
Download latest package of the theme from themeforest.

Hi , im facing the same issue. Does main theme need to be applied is necessary? Cant dark theme be applied while child theme is active? Will we have to keep using the parent theme instead of child theme if dark version is required?
Dar all,
He tells me that is not present the CSS file:
“Template is missing. Standalone themes need to have a index.php template file. Child themes need to have a Template header in the style.css stylesheet.”
Thank you

Hi . i just bought the theme (again) and i installed the”black version” demo. but its not applying the colors , although the data is there. please guide what to do
PS: child theme is applied (but no css added or no modification made)
Hi,
I cannot recreate the error on my end so there is something affecting the layout on your side. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Also check any custom code. Switch to the main theme if you have a child theme.
Let us know if you still have trouble with it.
Thank you!
IE9 seems to be more difficult…
When I put this code into the custom css box : no effect !
And the child theme doesn’t work with IE9…
Hello,
I have checked your site and saw that there is a html error in each block . There is an empty paragraph after each thumb. That paragraph is not coming from our theme so it;s probably a customization you made or a plugin conflict. Please check your custom code in the theme panel or your child theme. If you did not update your child theme, please do. This topic explains it better: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/setting-up-child-theme/
If you need to you can always replace the theme files again if you know there is customization but you are not sure what it is. You can use this guide and choose the ftp method to update: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks.
Hi,
It should work from the child theme and it should also work from the custom css box in the theme panel .If it doesn’t that means there is a problem. The child theme could be thee culprit. Did you update your child theme since you created it? a child theme is not update proof. This topic describes it better: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/setting-up-child-theme/
You should update your child theme as well if you have not already.
Thank you!
Ok it was easy on your child theme on loop-single.php
change
echo $td_mod_single->get_image('td_640x0');
to
the_post_thumbnail('full');
or whatever the heck you want.
PS i do this because i only have images of 640px and less on my site (they get resized to that on upload).
So no point for me to having the td_640x0 size since they are the exact same size of the full one.
So now i can safely remove those thousands of 640×0 images taking GB of room on my uploads folder.
Cheers!
Hi,
I resolve the problem whith this solution :
Put on the top of the style.css file :
@font-face {
font-family: ‘newspaper-icons’;
src: local(‘newspaper-icons’), url(images/icons/newspaper-icons.woff) format(‘woff’);
}
@font-face {
font-family: ‘newspaper’;
src: local(‘newspaper’), url(images/icons/newspaper.woff) format(‘woff’);
}
It’s not a good idea because of css file will be updated on the next theme update but it doesn’t work when i put it on a child theme or il the custom CSS box inside the admin panel…
Hello,
Please disable both wp rocket and rocket loader as they are known to cause issues with our theme. the recommenced cache and cdn settings are these ones: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/
If the issue is still there please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
We have no reports of such issues until now so i think it’s a simple plugin conflict.
Also if you have any custom code added to the theme panel or customization done to the theme files, please also remove them to see if they do not affect the functionality of the theme. if you have a child theme, test the main theme also.
Thank you!
Hello,
The code in the functions.php file will require a bit of coding knowledge as it will not re-write the basic functions.php file. It will require a priority setting. Maybe this will help explain it better: https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/a-guide-to-overriding-parent-theme-functions-in-your-child-theme–cms-22623
Overriding a function is a bit more tricky. You will have to know what you are doing. it will not be a copy and paste a bit of code situation. Customizing a theme;s code requires coding skills and knowledge.
Thank you!
Hello Bogdan:)
So I pasted that file to the New folder Newspaper-child on my Cpanel and I activated the child theme.
Can you give me some advice, so then in the future I don’t bother you with this…
In the Child theme fuction.php … Can I paste with out problems codes, as codes to change something in a plugin?
Then… When the father theme gets updated, What does it happens with Newspaper?
Do you recommend to do changes in the function.php using a Child Theme, or there is any better practise?
Thank you
Manuela
Hello,
If you want to create a child theme, there is one already provided in our main theme archive you download from envato. We recommend using that one as this is already created in there: http://screencast.com/t/MLM1gKUmuKwi
Thank you!
Hello,
Well you should not use the word bug looseley as most people tend to. A bug is something that happens to ALL of the users. We do not claim to be bug-free…far from it, but a major bug usually end up as the hottest topic on this forum. Whenever there is a major bug, you only need to access the forum and you will see lots of topics with the same issue. That is clearly a bug :). On your end this does not happen so I think it is safe to say that it is a local issue on your end. Probably a plugin conflict. If you have any further strange issues, the debugging starts with the plugins. Disable all plugins except visual composer, and very importantly: clear all caching, and purge cdn files if you use it. Then if the problem is still there, check for custom code in the theme panel, child theme or the theme files. If you use a chuild theme and want to debug an issue, it;s best to simply switch to the main theme for testing.
I hope this helps if not for this particular issue, but maybe for future ones.
Thank you!

Hello jmask,
I have inspected your website and I saw that you are using the child theme and also, you have some additional customizations which break the title of each post. As I can see from your source page you have a position absolute for author-date which damage this -> http://screencast.com/t/fV56COQn Please try to switch the theme to the main one and also, re-check all the customizations from your child theme in order to achieve best results with the theme. Also, if you want to disable the date only from modules and blocks, you should consult the theme panel and turn off from there this feature, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/KT5QM2b9h Also, you can try to update the theme to the latest version of it (Newspaper 7.4) to bring the best results with it.
Thanks for the message!
Good morning,
To don’t make any mistake, can you give me the details to put into a child stylesheet?
A you know this is the code, and I have to replace the details with Newspapers one.
