Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for the reply and proposing a solution.
I think this solution is not good because every smart post will require a CSS change. I am thinking to use custom fields.
I am currently using child theme. Do you know which file I have to edit if I have to remove sidebar entirely?
I understand this question does not cover your support policy. So, it’s fine for me if you can’t answer this question.
Thanks,
Moazam
Hello,
I bought the template Newspaper, and I get along very well with this template.
I’m using Newspaper 6 Child theme Version: 6.0c but I’ve this problem:
I’ve set the default post template with style 1
https://forum.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/post01.jpg
I’ve set it from the theme panel: Newspaper >Theme Panel > Post Settings > Default site post template (site wide)
I can not understand why at a certain point (maybe some update?) the default style is no longer applied to the posts and the generated html code is indeed different even though the settings are identical
Here is an old article where the setting are working:
http://www.lumiaitalia.it/lumia-550-sul-mercato-a-dicembre-2015/
Here is a recent article where the setting it’s not applied correctly
http://www.lumiaitalia.it/lumia-550-disponibile-in-italia/
I created an admin account for you so plese tell me how can I send it to you
Thank you
Hiya,
I have a site using Newspaper, where I’ve created a full-width gallery which spans the entire width of the page:
http://www.londoninstereo.com/run-the-jewels-gallery/
I’ve created this using the TagDiv built in gallery, and the issue I’m having is the thumbnail size for the gallery has a max height of 420px, which is smaller than what I need for this gallery.
I copied td_config.php into my child theme (newspaper-child/includes) and changed the height of the thumbnail for the gallery so it now reads:
td_api_thumb::add(‘td_0x420’,
array(
‘name’ => ‘td_0x420’,
‘width’ => 0,
‘height’ => 650,
‘crop’ => array(‘center’, ‘top’),
‘post_format_icon_size’ => ‘normal’, //what play icon to load (small or normal)
‘used_on’ => array(
‘tagDiv Image Gallery’
)
)
);
Then I regenerated all thumbnails, but it hasn’t made a difference to the image size being called.
Is there a way I can either amend the TagDiv Image Gallery thumbnail, or tell the image gallery to use a different thumbnail (i.e. the 1068×0 thumbnail would be large enough for this).
Thanks!

Hello James Christou,
Unfortunately, our theme does not support to override the javascript file in Child Theme…sorry. For more details about Child Theme, please consult our documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/ Here you should see the list of filess that can be modified using child theme.
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
Please switch to the default theme (select the newspaper theme not the child theme) and see if the problem is still there. If it is, please try to do a fresh install via ftp: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
If the child theme was not updated it could cause issues as some parts of the code were changed in the current version of the theme. The child theme should be updated as well.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
We are currently using version 2.3 of Newsmag, and we are encountering a challenge that your team may have some insight of how to solve this.
We are using the sticky menu option, and we added another sticky <div> underneath the sticky menu.
Because of having the 2nd sticky div, the smart-sidebar isn’t working properly. It looks cut-off.
After a quick investigation, we found that by changing the value of td_affix_menu_computed_height = 100 at Line 4429 will solve the issue.
We have created a child theme for CSS and modules and blocks alteration. However, is there a way to override a javascript function at tagdiv_theme.js in our child theme? We do not wish to make modification / changes to tagdiv_theme.js – because we would like to keep upgrading the theme whenever there is new upgrade of the theme.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
BTW, I’m using the Newspaper child theme – I don’t know if that has any bearing on this…
Hi Guys,
We updated everything
(theme, child theme, visual composer)
we still can’t add any tagdiv widgets and get the following error messages

Hello,
Please follow this topic to see how you can set up your child theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
You can use the child theme that comes with the theme archive and add files to it.
Please make sure you recreate the path of the files correctly.
Thank you!
I am having some issues setting up mu child theme.
It is all set up but when I activate it There appears to be no CSS.
Here is my child css:
/*
Theme Name: TeleRead
Description: TeleRead – Lovers of Books & Gadgets est. 1995
Author: Marketing the Change
Author URI: http://marketingthechange.com
License: Themeforest Split Licence
template: Newspaper
*/
@import (‘http://new.teleread.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=6.5.1’);
Hi,
There are no modification to the theme files. In version 6.6.1 we just updated the Social Counter.
Also you can check the update_log.txt to see what files were modified and also you can udpate the theme using patch – https://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/
Regarding the child theme you can find it in the /code folder if you want to use it and you can reade more about the files supported here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks!
how install child theme ?
folder child theme contain function.php and style.css
i change this files
1. Install Newspaper-child theme
2. Move your CSS and php file to child theme
3. Enable maintenance mode
4. Delete Old Newspaper theme
5. Install a new one
Booom ! You’re done 😀
As you know “all of a sudden” implies:
a) theme or plugin update
b) server core system update
c) change with CDN / caching system
Likely helpful to know what happened.
Often resetting the expiration time for elements at CDN can help; double checking no bizarro thing changed in a theme that might impact the plugin, etc.
Also, funnily enough, sometimes in my case clearing the transients using wp-optimize helps, as does simply going to my home page and doing a “save” of my existing layout to fix something changed from an update.
Obviously if you did a THEME update, something might have changed with the theme itself and require modifications, especially if a child theme is no longer in sync with parent, etc.
Not sure any of that helped … I’m stuck here doing some admin today, where I can’t leave, but have a window open to pop in here and share some of my shaky wisdom, snarky comments, and general holiday eggnog overdosed commentary. 🙂

thank you this worked for me as well
would be great to have an option in admin to allow html in copyright section / footer but I have setup child theme so good for updates for now
I have also added in the year so that it updates on it’s own
echo ‘© ‘, date(“Y”), ‘ ‘;
Space at the end added… it works but not even sure if I have done it correct lol

Hi,
Thank you so much. Yes title of page is display correct 🙂
I try do this same with widget but something is wrong, can you check this?
http://prntscr.com/99y4ik
I add to child theme this:
.block-title {
border-bottom: none !important;
}
.block-title > span {
font-size: 20px !important;
overflow: visible !important;
background-color:transparent !important;
}
.block-title span {
overflow: hidden;
text-align: left;
color: #000;
}
.block-title span:before,
.block-title span:after {
background-color: #dadada;
content: "";
display: inline-block;
height: 1px;
position: relative;
vertical-align: middle;
width: 50%;
}
.block-title span:before {
right: 0.5em;
margin-left: -50%;
}
.block-title span:after {
left: 0.5em;
margin-right: -50%;
}
And to custum css in theme
.block-title span {
text-align: left;
}
.block-title span:after {
width: 100%;
}
.block-title span:before {
display:none;
}
Best
and, oh my gosh … it’s still there!
I guess the file names “update_log.txt” and “changed_files_6.5_6.6.1.html” are not specific enough?

Thanks for your support and feel free to contact us any time 🙂

~ Radu, Marius, Emil, Alina, Lucian, Nicu G., Alin and Nicu S. ~
[ Version 6.6.1 ]
– new social counter version. Facebook requiers now an API key, read more here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial/
[ Version 6.6 ]
– new: Custom code panel. We realized that all the custom css, html and javascript should be in one panel. We also added a custom HTML code section. All the input areas from this panel have autocomplete (ctrl+space) and error checking.
– new: whatsapp share for article on mobile devices
– new: added http channel test status in the system status panel. You can now check if the theme is able to get the tweet count, like count etc from your host.
– new: filter posts by ID in blocks. You can add/exclude specific posts on all the blocks now.
– new: the theme now has it’s own logging system. We can now debug hosting issues easier.
– new: a new self diagnosting and self configurating module that allows our theme to pull data from other sites more reliably.
– fix: smart list 7 and 8 – sometimes the content was doubled
– fix: g+ new icon
– improvement: video playlist is now more reliable and all the code is loaded only when needed via autoload. The youtube videos information is now collected using just one API call instead of multiple API calls for each videos.
– improvement: speedbooster 4.2 now supports woocommerce better and moves the style.css to the bottom
– improvement: the theme panel works better now when adblock is used
– improvement: all the ajax functionality of the theme is now loaded only when needed
– improvement: better security checks on all the ajax requests
– improvement: html is allowed now in the copyright section of the footer
– improvement: social counter button is clickable on the entire area
– improvement: almost all the javascript code now passes jshint. We still have about 15-20% of the code to refactor to the new standards but with time we will get there.
– improvement: the theme’s data source class can now be overwritten from the child theme
– improvement: all the widgets from the theme are now optimized to work better. The widget_builder class is now deprecated and all the functionality was moved to td_block_widget
– improvement: the video playlist now downloads the videos metadata on render, not on save post. This allows us to use the playlist on the on click demos.
– improvement: the following modules of the theme are loaded on demand now: td_log, td_remote_http, td_remote_video, td_data_source, td_video_support, td_more_article_box, td_page_views, td_review, td_ajax. This means that the theme loads them only when needed. We mesured a 10% faster load time after this tweak.
– fix: theme animations where incompatible with some plugins and the visual composer gallery. The animations still worked but all of them looked a bit strange.
– fix: bug with the demo loader – the dinamic css for a specific demo was still loaded even after the demo was uninstall
– fix: header style 8 top submenu z-index fix
– fix: image aligment issue when using custom article paddings
– fix: the documentation url for demos was wrong in wp-admin
– fix: we updated the ads links to point to the right documentation
– fix: Social counter now shows the followers instead of +1 on google plus. Please update your social counter to see the improvement.
– fix: styling issues with the latest version of BuddyPress
– fix: on rare ocassions with some plugins the theme was emitting warnings in the server logs like: “Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string”
– fix: error that was showing up in logs when the theme panel was saved

Thank you for message!
Hi ohno,
Unfortunately, at the moment is not it possible to make a child theme for all the files which are included in wp_booster. In near future, we plan to add support for files located in the core framework of the theme (the /wp_booster/ folder). For the moment, you can make a child theme only for the files wich are presented in this our tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/, sorry.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
Sorry for delay, yesterday we have celebrated the National Day and we had a day off!
Please check the documentation regarding the child theme usage – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Also I have checked your site and you have a blog as homepage. Please check this guide about how to create a homepage(static page) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ and just use Visual Composer pagebuilder to add Newsticker element – http://screencast.com/t/UIoKRg76B
Thanks!
Hello,
It will break in an update only if the header.php file will be replaced. To be on the safe side, you can use a child theme to make your modification: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hi!
I’m trying to set up a child theme.
At first I’ve updated the main theme. And then uploaded and activated child theme.
I need to change next file /Newsmag-child/includes/wp_booster/td_module.php
And any changes in it doesn’t work.
But if do the same in main theme file /Newsmag/includes/wp_booster/td_module.php
It works.
I’ve checked the structure of folders a few times and it’s correct
What’s the problem?
Sir can I use a different plugin to create a child theme for my newspaper 6 theme?
I am using “Child Theme Configurator” to create a child theme for my site.
And one thing, How to activate “Trending Now” bar for my blog
My blog URL: http://www.hacking-guide.com/
Hello,
Unfortunately commenting out pieces of the child theme style.css will have no effect as the styling will be then pulled from the main theme file. You will need to make this modification to the main theme file.
(Not everything can be modified via the child theme)
Thank you!
