Hi

I am using block 5, 11 and 20 and the child theme Wedding News.

I have regererated all thumb nails using “Regenerate Thumbnail”, but I do still not see any images when loading the site on mu iPhone. http://test.ladiesabroad.se/

Also on my mobile I only see “Lastest Articles” and not the same blog posts as I have configured to be seen on the web version using the blocks. Is it a seperate place to configure which blog posts to be shown on the handheld devices? Or does the blocks only work on the web?

HI


@nico
The theme is tested and works fine with child theme, however you have to make sure that the custom code add added there won’t break site’s functionality. The indicated issues seems to be related with css so make sure that the custom code won’t breaks the layout.
Thanks!

HI

The td_menu.php file cannot be overwritten in child theme as it’s a file from wp-booster which does not have support for child theme yet. Try to make the changes in main theme files and check how it goes.
Thanks!

Hi All,

Sorry if I asked an eye rolling questions.

Please help to explain what is the use of child theme and how important it is in the progress of building the wordpress.

I searched google and it seems very technical.

Really appreciate any help.

I had an issue where all my social sharing buttons disappeared and other weirdness.

http://cowboylifestylenetwork.com/chef-magbanua-brings-experience-creativity-arroyo-grille/

I had to copy the images directory into the child theme.

I also updated the style.css from the new child theme.

I don’t think the change long had any changes to functions.php or header.php.

It seems like using a child theme breaks some functionality.
For example, smart sidebar stopped working, 2 blocks from the footer do not show up, the menu is missing arrows (the ones that appear when there is submenus) and it seems like the text doesn’t fit well inside roms/games the counters appear below.
Have a look: http://nicoblog.org/

Is it supposed to have this problems or can be fixed?

Hello,

I am having some issues when it comes to setting a custom menu for the theme. I have edited td_menu.php in a child theme to include a Mobile Menu location like so:

    function hook_init() {
        register_nav_menus(
            array(
                'top-menu' => 'Top Header Menu',
                'header-menu' => 'Header Menu (main)',
                'footer-menu' => 'Footer Menu',
                'mobile-menu' => 'Mobile Menu'
            )
        );
    }

Then I have added the new mobile-menu to the location inside parts/menu-mobile.php.


wp_nav_menu(array(
                'theme_location' => 'mobile-menu',
                'menu_class'=> 'td-mobile-main-menu',
                'fallback_cb' => 'td_wp_no_mobile_menu',
                'link_after' => '<i class="td-icon-menu-right td-element-after"></i>',
                'walker'  => new td_walker_mobile_menu()
            ));

The mobile menu works as expected, but the mega menu no longer works. Do you have any idea why this might be? If I change the theme_location on menu-mobile.php then it works as expected. It seems to be that small change that breaks the mega menu functionality.

Thanks.

Hi,
Please make sure you did not modify anything that can affect the icons of the theme. Check your code and see which part affects the icons. If you changed the font-family of the icons, then the icons will not display properly as they are icon fonts. Check any fonts changes you might have in the child theme.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hello,
The new update is released so please download the package again from themeforest. (the version is still 7.3 but the package was fixed)
@news_lp_client, the customization in your child theme are most likely the cause of your issues as if the files you modified got changed in the last update, you need to re-create the child theme. Please try to update your theme and switch to your main theme and check if the problems are still there. We have bno reports of such issues with the update and we cannot re-create them .The only issues we had were mobile theme related and they were since then fixed. Please let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hi,

I tried to make an Upgrade from 7.1.1 to 7.3. But it was a bad idea because after update i found with a lot of issues in practically everything. (then of this i saw myself forced to make a downgrade to 7.1.1 again)

Issues:

  • Website logo is disappeared
  • Ads sections disappeared from all the site.
  • Footer with default configuration. Without any logo
  • No favicon
  • In the single post page i saw the sidebar in blank
  • Read counter in every block of the index enabled. (It was disabled before).
  • Default grid configuration in Categories. (i hadn’t had a grid before)

And then, looking for change the template settings, i could see all the fields in blank with “no logo, no favicon, etc”. It seems the upgrade reset all my configuration.

Details of my theme: I have a child theme with a few customizations.

This was caused by a bug?.

Thanks.

Issue resolved by deleting the child theme and making any changes on the original theme.

Thanks

Having the same issue on our site–the Author, Date, and Comments all now show for every post, even though those switches are turned off in the the theme settings.

I’ve already gone ahead and added the proper CSS to our Child theme to correct this, but was wondering if it was something with my site or the update that is causing the switches to not work.

Thanks!

Sorry there’s some misinterpretation here.

When I say child theme, I mean Newspaper is the child theme. This maybe incorrect as I am NOT a web developer and have no experience in this field.

What I mean is the Newspaper theme, it has not been modified in any way.

What do you suggest we do to resolve this issue?

Hi,

We got a problem after installing child theme, icons like search, trending now arrow marks, social icons are not appearing. The icons are appearing as some different text. Can you tell us what to do.

Thanks

Hello,

If you use a child theme, that means you have custom code implementation (otherwise the child theme is pointless). Please restore the theme to it’s default state and test without any customization. That means, activating the main theme and removing all custom code. If your child theme has not been updated properly, all sorts of issues can occur. Please update your theme to the latest version and test without a child theme. if the problem goes away then you need to re-create your child thebe by using the one that comes bundled in our theme package.

Thank you!

Hello,

we just bought your theme for one of our clients.

They asked us if we can rename your theme and also child theme to something else. Is this possible?

Best regards,
Brajn

Hi Bogdan,

OK so I have ensured all of the newspaper requirements and system status parameters are correct for the site.

I have two sites with the same issue and use the same theme (Newspaper). So I marked site1 as fixed and within 7 days the Server Error 500 returned.

I changed to theme on site2 from Newspaper to TwentyFifteen and marked as fixed, to date the error hasn’t returned and it has now been 3 weeks. So by elimination we can assume that it is the child theme (Newspaper) that is causing the issue.

Both sites also have identical plugins enabled.

Can you advise on how to proceed further.

I think this has to be the best WordPress theme out there and am keen to purchase more, BUT I believe this server error is causing a major issue with my rankings with Google.

This is not an isolated case as I believe the Enfold theme has the same issue, see thread here:

Regards,
Dave

Hello,
It seems to work fine on our end: http://screencast.com/t/4xBeM6zUXqM
Please test our demo version as well and see if the problem is still there: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-the-new-screen-savers-the-show-that-launched-video-into-the-stratosphere/
Your site provides the error, yes, which means there is something on your side that is affecting it. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Also if you have any custom code added, restore the theme to it;s default values. If you use a child theme, please activate the main theme and test again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hi Catalin,

if you use the original theme (not the child) header is displayed correctly. What do I have to do? I installed the child theme from version 3.0, so it recently. The use of child theme makes sense because it facilitates updates. If every time I have to update the theme child does not make much sense as a thing. Am I wrong?

Hello OverPress,

I have checked your source page and I have noticed that you are using the child theme, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/iUfmfcZUnbN6 First of all, please try to switch the theme to the main theme, clear all your caches, purge CDN files if you are using the CDN system, clear server cache (if you do not have any access to this process you will have to request it to your hosting provider). Also, if you want to use the Child theme, please notice that you will have to use the latest version of it which come bundled with the theme. Please try to do all of these steps and then try to check again and see the results.

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!

Thanks for your understanding!

Are you using a child theme?

I had to manually update style.css and header.php to fix it.
