Hi Simion,
Thanks for your help.
I was not using any Cloud templates, so I decided to deactivate it because it clearly slows down my website (at least on the dev server). It increases many seconds while editing pages, and creating the site which is a lot of time for the developer to waste.
Anyways, I went ahead for the core modification for now (despite not adviseable because of the upgrade thing), but I could not find that file on my file structure:
https://www.screencast.com/t/ict6RDTU4rmc
I just upgraded to 9.7
Also, doing a find didn’t find the file too.
Where did this bastard go?

Hi,
@wspeed Best to try by shortcode. Since theme update 9.7 the single template files have been moved in the tagDiv composer plugin – https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
So the post template files could be modified there directly – http://prntscr.com/ngorqf but not in a child theme anymore, because this means they will have to be remade after each update.
By shortcode you could create/import a cloud post template, place a column text in it (in the location where you want the rating to appear) and enter the plugin shortcode in it
– http://prntscr.com/ngoqk3
These are the cloud post templates created by us
– https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Single.
You can also modify them after you import them, or create your own from blank
– http://prntscr.com/ngosqb
This should work, you could give it a try.
Thanks
Hi,
Indeed they are larger for some reason. I believe it has something to do with the cloud header template used – https://cloud.tagdiv.com/header-template-24-craft-ideas/?
I could give you a code to make them smaller – http://prntscr.com/ngo9j6
Enter it in Theme panel custom CSS section
.td-ht-craft-menu .tdb-menu > li > a .tdb-menu-item-text i {
font-size: 16px!important;
}
I will also add this for more investigation, sorry for the inconvenience. Please let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,
If each post is set like this – http://prntscr.com/nglc9k then they will use the general post template set in the theme panel – http://prntscr.com/nglcmv
But if they are not set like that, there would be no way of changing the template for all of them at once, only by manually editing each post and setting the template. Maybe it could be done in the database, but only if you know what you are doing

– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-set-post-template-for-all-the-posts-in-one-category/
Maybe such a setting will be added in the future, sorry for any inconvenience.
Thanks
Hi Team,
I want to use different header for each page, so i imported some header template from cloud library. I need to modify those template but i can do that using tdcomposer as it showing a blank screen with sidebar, cant able to add any element to that template. Please help me to sort it out. Thanks in advance.
After the 9.7 update our modified files in the child theme didn’t work anymore. One workaround would be the use of a cloud template. However, I really have no idea how to build a blank template. Documentation? The template should show the content of the post including the sidebar. I just want to add some elements like breadcrumbs, social media buttons, title etc. How can I achieve that?
We usually use the style 2 template for all posts. If I create an new template from the single_post_2 template, it does not show the sidebar nor the content of the post but some content from the start page. I can’t edit this part.
I hate frontend editors and anythink like it. So, please be patient. I rather use code than a page builder. Unfortunately, the template system does not support php editing.
Thanks for the help.
Hi,
I’m currently using the home decor theme, and I see that it has the header cloud template set. http://prntscr.com/ngjm03
I don’t want the sticky menu, where do I disable it? http://prntscr.com/ngjm3i
Thanks Calin but I do have the header set as a global header in the Theme panel. I’ve tried setting is back to default then back to the cloud template but that doesn’t fix it. I’ve also tried setting the individual categories with the cloud template but even when they have a cloud template in the header page they still show the default?
I’m trying to work on an omported from the cloud template, but get the following error:
Error at zones: 5(models) : 4(dom). The model does not match the content
I’ve not done anything to the code that was imported.
Hello, I would like to create a different header for my blogs but the menu looks slightly different from the home page. The Font Awesome icons seem to be a bit larger than on the home page of the site. How can I adjust the cloud header template to match the default?
Original Menu that I want to mirror
http://heidohoonthego.ebonyivorycreative.com/
Cloud Template Header, icons much larger.

Thanks!
@Simion C., I handled it with creating new template in cloud and add shortcode. Thanks for suggestion!
However MKJ is right, without child theme option editing current theme is almost impossible and at least very frustrating…
The cloud templates don’t have PHP or code files, they must be built/edited in the composer. You can work on them with the composer in the front end.
Child theme templates are for developers and not for rookies. I need a single line of additional php code in template no. 2. The frontend composer will not help at all. Or can it handle php code?
Sorry, but words really fail me here. And please add a giant disclaimer to the theme description that it can not use a child theme properly. Again, look at the Satollo newsletter plugin. You can override plugin template files putting theme in the extensions folder.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but this is not by choice unfortunately. The theme has to be in accordance with the new Envato rules so these modifications were necessary. Moving the files into the composer plugin has consequences for the child theme as well.
@MKJ That is correct, sorry for the mistake. Maybe a solution will be found, we will make a guide if that will be the case. I can’t say what will happen at the moment, our developers will try to find the best solution.

@Tuudi You can edit edit the cloud templates, not the default templates. These are cloud templates made by us, they can be imported through the cloud library plugin
– https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Single
Also you can create your own post templates, starting with a blank template.
Let me know if you have more questions, I will try to help.
Hi,
You can check more from this update in this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/important-new-update-newspaper-9-7/
If you are not using the child theme you can update your theme without problems, from newspaper v9.7 the child theme will support only the changes for style and function file and you can not longer use the child theme for all theme files like in previous version of theme.
But with the new features you can achieve using the header manger, tagDiv Composer and tagDiv Cloud library everything or even more that you can make in child theme.
If you have any questions, please let as know!
Thank you!
Hello,
I create a new footer with “cloud template” but I don’t change the footer…how to change the footer 1 by the footer 2? The new footer. the new footer is in a page apart from the home page, how to do?
Hi,
Did you make that modification in a child theme? After the 9.7 update this is not possible anymore. Now the child theme is limited to just a few files.
This is a consequence of the recent modifications to the location of theme files, due to Envato requirements. There is an article about it here – https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
So now the header template files are in the composer – http://prntscr.com/ng7qe6 You could edit them there, but the modification will have to made again after each update. Files from plugins can’t be modified in a child theme.
An alternative to this is to use a cloud header template. For example set a cloud header template in general, in the theme panel. That will be used in the whole website. In the homepage use a different cloud header template that doesn’t contain an ad.
You can design a header as you want, even import one made by us (and modify it if needed)
– https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/Headers
In them you can add any element from the composer. You can set a general template that contains an ad, while in the homepage use one with no ad in it.
Let me know if you need help or you have more questions.
Thanks

Maybe there is a different way of adding the code you mention, for example if it can be added by shortcode, you could add a column text in the cloud post template and enter the shortcode in it.

Hello,
I set the header of my theme and the single post using cloud library.
When I set the header of my site in cloud library mode, I am no longer able to modify my custom single post (with td composer).
When I open this with td composer I get this error: Errors at columns: 2 (models): 8 (dom). The model does not match the content. (but the frontend of whole site works perfectly).
If I set the default header (no cloud library) I am able to edit with td composer my custom single post again, without any problems.
I also noticed that, when I use the icon box in the cloud library header, the site is stuck on the post page.
Hi,
I could take a look, please post a link to the website. The share buttons should appear if they are enabled in the theme panel and socials are selected
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/sharing/
If you use cloud post templates, be sure to add the sharing sections in it
– http://prntscr.com/ng7274
Let me know.
Thanks
Hi,
I don’t quite understand what is happening. You can built a custom cloud 404 template as you want, or import a cloud 404 template designed by us (and modify it if needed). Here you can see them all – https://cloud.tagdiv.com/#/load/404
If there is a problem, please try to provide some more details about it and I will help you. Let me know.
Thanks
I see the problem, seems the inline ad appears at the top of the post for some reason. If it is set to 3 paragraphs in the cloud template post content element ads section, it should appear there.
On my end it seems to work – http://prntscr.com/ng51c6 – http://prntscr.com/ng51mg
We could take a look at it, please send us an email as mentioned above.
Hi,
I don’t quite understand what you are trying to do, some more details would be helpful.
Maybe you want to assign a cloud category template for each category, that is possible, create/import them as needed and set them in the theme panel, categories section. If you created one and width to create a similar one but with some modifications, the cloud templates can be duplicated – http://prntscr.com/ng4s2m
For posts the cloud templates can be applied in the single post edit screen, or in general in the theme panel, but not by category. Such an option may be added in the future, so that a post template can be applied for a posts belonging to a specific category.
If I misunderstand please let me know, I will try to help you.
Thanks
Hi,
If you want to have more control over category page you can use a category template from tagDiv Cloud Library and edit it with tagDiv Composer you can edit the template to make the category page to look like you want.
Thank you!
This could be a solution. I tried it, but didn’t really understand how to work with cloud templates. I wasn’t able to edit the source code. How can we switch from visual mode to php editing mode? And honestly, I don’t have time to search for that. Please work on your documentation.
