Hello,
My current PHP version is 7.4, and I want to upgrade to 8.2, for example, or 8.4.
I’m using the Newspaper child theme.
Hello,
Please let me know the pho version and if you use a child theme.
Thank you!
Hello,
We recently updated your theme to Version 12.6.9.
We have noticed a change in the way the Category Siblings Column works,inside the Tag Div Composer, in this new version. Previously, it only fetched the first-level subcategories of the category page, but now it retrieves all child subcategories. This is an issue for us because there are too many subcategories, which creates clutter on the page.
We searched for an option in this column to adjust this behavior but couldnât find anything. Is there another column we can use to achieve the same result as before, or is there a setting that allows us to control this?
Looking forward to your guidance.
Hi Bettina,
Thank you for your response.
Upon reviewing the Newspaper theme’s changelog, I noticed the addition of the ‘new: Added a new shortcode Page Content Renderer;’ block in recent theme updates.
This new block, located in plugins\td-composer\legacy\Newspaper\includes\td_config_blocks.php at line 35935, utilizes the function td_config::get_pages_options_array(), which retrieves all pages regardless of their status.
The function itself is defined in plugins\td-composer\legacy\Newspaper\includes\td_config.php at line 7467. After activating the td composer plugin, we observed memory usage exceeding 550MB.
Our website contains 281 pages with substantial content. Consequently, when this block is loaded, we experience significant slow query issues. Please refer to the attached screenshots for details. When we modified the query to retrieve only 10 published pages per page, memory usage decreased to 50-55MB.
We attempted to override this method within our child theme, but were unsuccessful. Could you please advise if there is a method to resolve this issue through the child theme, or if a patch is planned?

Hello!
If you create a .zip file of your child theme folder, you can then simply upload that to your site from the WordPress > Appearance > Themes > Add New section.
Thank you!
I see the skin ad isn’t appearing anymore. Did you turn it off perhaps? I adjusted the ad vertically https://prnt.sc/BrZH7VLUypiJ but if there are still issues we may have to think about modifying it in a different way. The modifications I made with the top menu being below the logo are the ones causing spacing issues. I could modify the header template in a child theme which could produce better results. Or I could continue adjusting it based on how it is now, but it seems to be a bot tricky to get it right. Please let me know when the skin ad is back, in caser there are problems with the header again.
Thank you!
Hello,
What version of the theme do you have? Do you use child theme? You should have this option -> https://we.tl/t-3Ori7yCoKs
Thank you!
Hello,
The notification is not from our theme or our plugins. Please try to update the theme and WordPress to the latest versions and PHP 8.1
Also, do you have a child theme?
Thank you!
Hello Gus,
Please follow the steps from this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/error-at-zones-6models-1dom-the-model-does-not-match-the-content-currene/ if you have a child theme; please use the main theme.
Usually the âInvalid reply from server endpoint errorâ is caused by insufficient WP_Memory_limit, if youâll set it to 256M, and is still not working, please double it and check the rest of the settings from our guide -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ also make sure that you are using SSL and you have a good bandwidth, the one from our server is 1GB/s and the one that I use at home is 500MB/s, if you have low bandwidth, then you can access parts of the cloud, this can be done from the frontend, for example, if you are on a post -> https://i.imgur.com/4G74M7F.jpg or from tagDiv Composer -> https://i.imgur.com/2F6MhfI.png or from backend -> https://www.screencast.com/t/wekHmc7kJ8J
Thank you!
We are experiencing an issue with the Subcategories widget in Newspaper Theme Version 12.6.9 on our site. The widget is currently displaying an excessive number of nested subcategories, which seems to be a change in behavior from previous versions.
Our category structure includes deep nesting in some areas, such as the Expert Insights category (example: https://incompliancemag.com/topics/resources/expert-insights/). The widget should ideally display only the direct subcategories of the current category, but instead, it is pulling in multiple levels of nested categoriesâsometimes 5-6 levels deep.
We have set the widget to limit the number of subcategories to 8, but this setting does not appear to restrict the depth of the category hierarchy. We believe this may be a bug because, in previous versions, the widget behaved as expected by only displaying the immediate subcategories of the selected category.
Expected Behavior
For the Expert Insights category, the Subcategories widget should only display:
Expert Insights
– Blogs
– Columns
– Past Columns
Currently, the widget is pulling in every sub-subcategory under Expert Insights, which is not the intended functionality.
Steps to Reproduce
– Navigate to the Expert Insights category page.
– Observe the Subcategories widget displaying deeply nested categories rather than just direct children.
– Adjusting the “Limit” setting in the widget does not resolve the issue.
Expected Functionality
The widget should only display direct subcategories of the current category or if that has changed there should be an option to limit the depth of subcategory levels displayed.
Can you confirm whether this is a bug or an intended change in behavior? If it’s a bug, is there a fix or a workaround we can apply?
Thanks for your help!
Hello,
Have you checked for a plugin conflict? Please deactivate ALL plugins, including WP Bakery, except tagDiv ones. Also, if you use a child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache, and try again.
Thank you!
Hello!
When using Newspaper theme I have noticed that on Posts page in wordpress admin as well as in any other custom post type overview page in admin panel there is always a new column Views added.
I can hide it for myself using standard wordpress admin screen management panel but I need to make sure that it is hidden for all publishers and content managers that log into the WP backend.
In theme settings i did not find any toggle that would remove Views functionality. Is it possible? Is there a programatic way to at least disable those columns to be populated in standard wordpress backend pages? If it’s commenting a few lines in PHP I could manage it with a child theme if you point me where I can disable it. I am not using views anywhere on the site and also I do not use it to show items in grids based on views.
Thank you for any hints and guidance!
Hi, can we customize the woocommerce pages for example adding or removing fields from the existing checkout page?
We are using a child theme with Newspaper as parent.
Hi,
I have this website https://comedychildren.com/
I inactive this part in Pgaes: “Enable/Disable Mobile Theme”,
And now i am unable to edit the header in mobile like background and so on, Where i need to do it or where i can do it so it will work properly ?
There is a difference between the desktop and mobile versions for the header, and I don’t understand where to change it, so many places in your theme to change one thing in site and nothing works properly đ

Hi,
That will require modifications to the post template. The comments section is usually at the bottom, so when comments are getting made the list can go further down, and not push any content lower.
But if you want to move them above the previous/next post section, I can provide the steps for doing it in a child theme, so that the modification will not be lost after a theme update.
Let me know.
Thank you!
Hello,
I just checked now, and the pagination is working, but you have errors in the console.
Have you checked for a plugin conflict? Please deactivate ALL plugins, including WP Bakery, except tagDiv ones. Also, if you use a child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache, and try again.
Thank you!
Hello,
Please switch to the main theme and check if the issue persists. Maybe you have in the child theme functions which need to be updated.
Thank you!
I did not do anything on my site just applied the available updates on the current theme we are using.
WordPress 6.7.1 running Newspaper Child theme theme.
Hello,
Considering that there have been so many changes from version 9 to 12.6.8, it might not even be necessary to use a child theme anymore. Please let us know what functionality you have in the child theme. Additionally, itâs possible that you may need to adapt the functions in the child theme to ensure they continue working with the updated theme.
Thank you!
Our site was running on Newspaper v9 and tagdiv composer 2.x. We purchased tagdiv composer 5.2 and Newspaper v12. But it seems switching theme does not work out of the box since our child theme heavily depends on tagdiv 2.x. While we update our child theme, is there a way I can get v4.2 of tagdiv composer to try with our child theme for time being.

The problem: Neither existing comments nor the comment form are visible.

2.All plugins are deactivated except the theme
3.Child theme is deactivated for testing
4.Using latest version of TagDiv Builder
5.Comments section added via TagDiv Builder
6.Inspecting the page shows an empty #comments div

Could you please assist in resolving this issue?

I am testing the EventON plugin. This one causes no issues with Composer as far as I’ve seen up to now (this is not a at all the reason I’m testing it, as I said before I am not that bothered by the Events Calendar plugin interference with Composer).
But I get to the same problem: how to customize the design of single events.
With these plugins you normally use:
- A calendar view, for which I create a Page and edit it with Composer to make it look like the rest of the site, adding a shortcode.
- A widget in a sidebar (for example), for which, again, I use an element with a shortcode.
- A single view for each event. This is the one I do not know how to adapt to my site design.
I create an event and it works alright, but the content is outside the “content” part of a template, between header and footer, so Composer does not recognize it and I can’t edit it.
As I understand it, there is no way I can turn this into a template to be able to edit a global template for all the events using Composer, right?.
So, is there any way I could accomplish this by editing the template files? and if so, which one would I have to edit? I am willing to use Newspaper as a child theme.
Thanks :O)
I thought that you only wanted to modify the main header.php file to remove the webpage schema. Removing this code https://prnt.sc/CCod3eD5L3Dg should not create any problems. I tested it as well.
But if you also want to modify the header template you are using, header template 6, in the child theme, then there are more steps.
You will need to create folders in the child theme, to create this path Newsmag-child\parts\header
In the header folder, copy these files from the same folder in the composer https://prnt.sc/Kk4W5YDy9dCc in the child theme https://prnt.sc/nd7KfivQ63O2 Then you can modify the header template or the other files.
I can help more if you could mention more details about what you would like to modify in the header template. Let me know.
Thank you!
