Hello,
On the posts, where you have set the code?
The theme panel option for the inline ads refers for standard templates, and you have a single post template from cloud that needs to be edited using the tagDiv Composer, there you can select the post content and add you ads in inline ads section – https://forum.tagdiv.com/post-template-ads/ – https://i.imgur.com/7Vnpbg2.png
Thank you!
Hello,
You have the mobile theme plugin activated; please deactivate it and clear the cache.
Using our theme, you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ The option that you need to use.
Suppose you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer. In that case, when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc, so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY.
So, the mobile responsive is what you see when that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
The Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin cannot.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page, you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
Thank you!
Hello,
Yes, the prebuilt website is fully customized with tagdiv Composer, so you need to do all the changes with it.
You have a header template from Cloud Library, then you need to edit with tagDiv Composer https://www.screencast.com/t/Y5j6ArY8Ug, select the logo and set there the image, make sure that is set to show and delete the logo text or SVG code-> https://imgur.com/ve11Fwt -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/add-logo-newspaper/
You can not delete the empty column, only the row that contains empty columns.
If you want to delete a row, you can delete a row with the empty column using the right click on the row icon -> https://i.imgur.com/JodWvlW.png -> https://i.imgur.com/e6bb8U5.png or using the drag and drop or you can simply click on the row and press the delete button from your keyboard -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Mai7iyEG The same steps are to delete the elements.
Thank you!
ello,
We recommend WPML plugin for translations: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/
You need to translate the English (original language) the template for each language in part – https://i.imgur.com/CDmeHCf.png you should have them for each language cloud template – https://i.imgur.com/4agmUtg.png
A much simpler and faster alternative is to duplicate the cloud template you want to use in another language, edit it and select the desired language – https://i.imgur.com/z1CqgBo.png (edit the name) – https://i.imgur.com/dPX8ROs.png – https://i.imgur.com/Lc81IgP.png This method needs to be used to translate all cloud templates.
The pages are created with tagDiv Composer which is a page builder, when WPML is used it cannot translate everything that was built with the page builder and must be edited for each language separately. Please open the page in the editor and click on translate – https://i.imgur.com/TXH6y1c.png. After, if you duplicate the template, you can edit it to change the logo, menu, and whatever you want.
When you make the corrections, make sure you are on the page with the language you are editing, and if you use the cache, or object cache, please clear it.
Please check this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/missing-strings-on-wpml/
Thank you!
Hello,
Yes, it is this redirect to the cloud templates. Can you try to save the post like draft and check after?

Hello,
To increase page speed, I recommend checking which thumbnails you are using on your blocks. You might want to avoid having all of them enabled and optimize and regenerate images. You can use the EWWW Image Optimizer for image optimization and the OMGF plugin for fonts. Additionally, you can use the WP Rocket plugin.
here are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

Hello,
To create your own template, you must use a cloud template and customize it with tagdiv Composer https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloud-library-templates/
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria,
While Public Post Preview isn’t officially tested with the latest versions of WordPress, I can confirm it was working with 6.7.1.
It only stopped for me when I switched from standard templates to cloud templates. Now, when a Public Preview link such as ?p=58830&preview=1&_ppp=c7f0ac42c5 is created, it redirects to a cloud template path, /tdb_templates/blank-single-template/
Unfortunate as it was such a useful tool to have. While I appreciate this plugin isn’t on Newspaper’s officially supported list, it would be so helpful if someone from the team could try it and see if they experience the same.
It’s a lightweight plugin with over 100k active installations, available to download here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/public-post-preview/
Hello,
If you have the posts created with Elementor and disable the Elementor plugin, then there will be an issue with the design and functionality you have made with Elementor on the posts.
In the Gutenberg editor, there are more options, but you can use which you want.
Yes, you can apply your cloud template to the posts. You can also use global templates and set them to be from panel -> https://i.imgur.com/QFTuZzK.png, and set the global template here https://i.imgur.com/HM0DdSD.png or in the frontend.
It depends on what plugins you have now installed and activated.
Thank you!
Hello,
Please go the Cloud Templates -> Homepage and there you can import the page https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-use-tagdiv-cloud-library-templates/
Thank you!
Hello,
Please let me know what version of the theme, WordPress and PHP you have.
Also, what resources does the host have? How many plugins are you using, and which ones? Additionally, do you have cloud templates or standard templates?
Thank you!
Dear Ana María,
Thank you for your detailed response and for the resources provided. I’ll review them thoroughly to address the issues I’ve encountered. However, I have a few additional questions and concerns:
As mentioned earlier, I’ve used TagDiv Composer for creating the entire page structure, but for posts, I’ve been using the Classic Editor combined with Elementor Pro for final adjustments. Do I need to recreate or modify all the posts I’ve already built? Will this require starting from scratch?
The header and menus have already been set up using TagDiv Composer, and they work well on desktop. However, the mobile version doesn’t display correctly, and I’m unable to adjust it properly. Could you assist me with optimizing the mobile view?
I’d like clarification on the use of multiple page builders. Is it safe to deactivate Elementor entirely after migrating to TagDiv Composer for all templates? Would this impact the content and structure of posts already created using Elementor?
Regarding categories: I’ve noticed that my category pages are not displaying posts dynamically as expected, even though they work on the homepage. Is this related to the cloud templates or the blocks applied to category pages?
How can I change the parts of the template that are still in English into Spanish? Is there a specific setting or approach for translating these elements?
Additionally, if possible, could you provide your response in Spanish? This would greatly help me in better understanding and implementing your recommendations.
Thank you very much for your assistance and guidance. I look forward to resolving these issues with your support.
Best regards
Hello,
Unfortunately, this plugin is not tested with the theme. If you want to create the sidebar in Appearance -> Widgets and set the sidebar on pages, or using the tagDiv Composer; using the element from tagDiv Composer, Widget sidebar https://i.imgur.com/e1FPdYU.png -> https://i.imgur.com/q20UCZf.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/
If you using a single post template from Cloud Library then you need edit with tagDiv Composer,
this is a video what that can help you => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fa7GenCHcBU, and a guide => https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/
or if you have a Standard Post Template, a sidebar can be created only with widgets, and in this way, you can assign a different sidebar on each post.
Thank you!
Hi,
That could happen. The basic cloudflare setup as far as I know does not cache or deliver the content based on device/viewport. While this is not a problem for a responsive website, it will probably be a problem when using dedicated mobile content. From what I know they do provide cache by device type like so https://developers.cloudflare.com/automatic-platform-optimization/reference/cache-device-type/ But that is a premium service unfortunately. Other than that, I don’t recall seeing a working solution for using dedicated mobile content with cloudflare. In this case the solutions would be to either not use the mobile theme, or use cloudflare APO and activate cache by device type.
Thank you!
Hello,
1. I recommend using php version 8.2, but we don’t have a specific guide for this.
2. and 3. We recommend using cloud templates and flex blocks instead of the standard templates and standard blocks, like blocks 1-25 or Big Grid Full or others. So please replace all the standard blocks and templates and disable the tagdiv Standard pack plugin.

Hello,
@kpt
Please let me know where you are on a page/ category template.
You need to filter the block on the category you want to show it-> https://i.imgur.com/nlJvq8B.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/what-is-ajax-preloading/ You need to edit the page with the tagdiv Composer and select the block to apply different filter and sort options.
For each category, on the flex block there is a special filter for the current category, which dynamically displays the posts from that category within each category -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
The Posts Loop automatically filters the posts depending on the cloud template you set (for example, on the category page, there will be posted posts from that category) https://forum.tagdiv.com/posts-loop/
@ali ghannouchi
We can help with this request, but you will need to contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com, and you’ll need to provide the license key, then we’ll set the key in our system to be checked and if this no longer appears on that domain, then the mentioned domain will be removed.
Thank you!
Hello,
The tagDiv Composer is our page builder and it can be used for building pages and cloud templates, but not for creating posts. For this, you’ll need to use Gutenberg or a classic editor https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Using tagDiv Composer, you can build/edit the single post template (the layout of the posts).
Here is a video that will show you how to use the builder to create a website from scratch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SoGQ0d5kIBg to do this you’ll need to have the posts already.
Also, I don’t recommend using two page builders on the same page/post.
You can use our gallery options, but for the page, you need to have the acf plugin pro version https://i.imgur.com/4K20QNp.png and use those options on the images -> https://i.imgur.com/jMo89lb.png Yes, you can set there the gallery.
You need to filter the block on the category you want to show it-> https://i.imgur.com/nlJvq8B.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/what-is-ajax-preloading/ You need to edit the page with the tagdiv Composer and select the block to apply different filter and sort options.
For each category, on the flex block there is a special filter for the current category, which dynamically displays the posts from that category within each category -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
The Posts Loop automatically filters the posts depending on the cloud template you set (for example, on the category page, there will be posted posts from that category) https://forum.tagdiv.com/posts-loop/
Thank you!
Oh! I’ve found this now within WordPress via Newspaper > Plugins.
I have TagDiv Composer and TagDiv Cloud Library, but did not install the Opt In Builder as it indicated it was optional.
https://prnt.sc/8y_uU8o50zbZ
We have never used the opt in builder in the past, but I will try activating it before updating the theme and see if that fixes the issue. Thank you so much.
@stefangebala did you manage to find a solution?
I’ve recently switched to cloud templates and have also run into the same problem, Public Post Preview has stopped working with links redirecting to a template.
Hi everyone,
We’ve been facing an issue with caching on our website, specifically with Cloudflare. We are using the mobile theme exclusively (no mixing of mobile with Google’s AMP version or desktop version). The problem we’re encountering is that Cloudflare caching seems to conflict with our mobile theme, sometimes breaking it while the desktop theme works fine.
We’ve tried multiple solutions, including using Cloudflare’s caching settings such as Cache Everything and Standard Cache Level, along with Bypass Cache on Cookie and other strategies for mobile-specific caching, but we haven’t been able to successfully get the mobile theme to function properly without issues. Here’s the specific code we used in an attempt to address this problem:
// Cloudflare Worker code to bypass cache for mobile devices
export default {
async fetch(request, env, ctx) {
let userAgent = request.headers.get(‘User-Agent’);
if (userAgent && /Mobile|Android|iPhone/i.test(userAgent)) {
// Mobile logic – Bypass cache for mobile users
return fetch(request, { cache: ‘no-store’ }); // Ensures the cache is bypassed
} else {
// Desktop logic – Allow caching for desktop users
return fetch(request);
}
},
};
We’ve applied this code to bypass cache for mobile devices, and tried several approaches using Cloudflare’s Bypass Cache on Cookie option, but the problem persists. The mobile theme works intermittently, sometimes caching properly and sometimes breaking.
Additionally, we’ve been wondering if there is a distinct mobile theme other than the one we’ve been using that might be causing this issue. If anyone knows about a different mobile theme or specific settings for mobile theme caching that we might have missed, we would appreciate any guidance.
What we are looking for:
We are seeking advice from anyone who has faced a similar problem or knows how to properly configure Cloudflare for caching mobile themes while ensuring they load properly for users. Specifically, we are trying to:
Cache the mobile version correctly without affecting the desktop theme.
Ensure that the mobile theme doesn’t break due to cache conflicts.
Identify any additional configuration steps or tools that might help in fixing this issue.
Any help or insights on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!
Hello,
We are experiencing serious performance issues on our website due to the td-composer module in the Newspaper theme. We have identified that this module is the main cause of the extremely high Time to First Byte (TTFB) on our pages, significantly affecting the user experience.
web: https://fusionasturias.com
Technical Details:
• Server: VPS with optimized configuration.
• Web Server: Nginx (no Apache).
• PHP: Version 8.3 (FPM enabled).
• WordPress: Version 6.7.1.
• Cache Optimization: Using WP Rocket with Redis enabled.
• Compression: Brotli and GZIP active.
• Object Cache: Redis configured.
Observations:
1. We conducted several performance tests using tools like WebPageTest, which showed that the time it takes to load the initial HTML is excessively high. (See attached screenshot).
2. A more detailed analysis using a code profiler plugin confirmed that td-composer accounts for over 3 seconds of the total load time on each request. (See second attached screenshot).
3. This issue occurs even on simple pages without many dynamic elements, indicating that the problem is directly related to the module or its integration with the theme.
4. We updated our site design at the end of the summer. Previously, we used the Default PRO design, but now we’ve configured the site using the Pulses-PRO design. We wonder if residual configurations or data from the previous design might be “bloating” the database or negatively impacting performance.
5. We suspect that the Cloud Templates used in the current design might also contribute to the high load times. Could these be affecting performance?
Questions:
1. Are there specific configuration recommendations for Nginx + PHP 8.3 environments that could help improve the module’s response times?
2. Is it possible to disable or replace certain functionalities of the module without compromising the design integrity?
3. Could Cloud Templates be a cause of the slow performance? If so, how can we optimize them?
4. Is there any tool or recommended method to clean up residual configurations or data from previous designs that might be affecting the new one?
We would greatly appreciate any guidance or solutions you can provide.
Please find the test results attached to help diagnose the issue.

Ah, ok. Thanks for the explanation. Actually, I downloaded the blank template from the cloud and copied the content from the other site. Didn’t know that this would change the template itself, so to speak.
Hello,
It depends on what template you use. After you sent the image, I saw that you used a standard template from the tagdiv Standard pack plugin, which is deprecated. If you were using a cloud template, you would need to edit it with the composer; that’s why you need to specify what you are using.
Thank you!
