If you are using Adsense NEVER minify any JS. If is possible css either. Only use HTML minification .
in cloudflare deactivate everything and set CDN only.
Another thing, use similar ads positions like before you switch to newspaper
And the last thing, every january are less advertisers
Tomorrow i will work without the cloudflare and i will tell you the result.
Thanks again 🙂
Sorry I didn’t have more helpful answer …. I don’t use cloudflare …. so, not much help on this one.
Perhaps somebody else will have better answer — lots of folks DO use cloudflare. Caching shouldn’t impact things unless the tracker you’re using can’t parse out cached visits or something thus impacting the CTR.
I know that more people now are using adblockers .. but this is not the reason to drop CTR from 6% to (0.5% ~ 1%) !
there is a secret behind the manual caching or cloudflare i really don’t know .. i will test with a normal blog without a cloudflare and i will see the results.
Thanks Chris.
More and more people are using adblockers … especially now in ipad and mobile devices and new web browsers with built-in ad blocking.
If your CTR dropped dramatically by changing to cloudflare, then it may be related to that.
Simple way to test, go back to how you had your setup originally to see if it goes back up by NOT using cloudflare.
I don’t know if this problem related to the theme or not but let’s see. and please help me :/
I started from 10/2015 with newspaper theme my CTR was about 4% and sometimes higher
then traffic was increasing so i moved to VPS ” nginx ” and cached my website
and used cloudflare and used their plugin to restore the user IP.
after that my CTR is dropped too much ! and for sure my CPC.
I’m using ads from your ads system and shortcodes also from newspaper shortcodes for ads
I’m thinking about the ads maybe it’s not appear to mobile devices due to caching or something like this i really don’t know :/
Here’s a link for a multi-page article https://boredomdoctors.com/handyman-fix-furnace/
I don’t know the problem but sure it’s from caching or cloudflare because before this i was working so well!
Hello
So in this case, do you recommend to me using cloudfare to minify instead the way you said before with GTmetrix? Does it have any risk to replace files which need to be solved?
I have a 95 % score in PageSpeed GTmetrix and 87 % YSlow, but when I check my website in google pagespeed insight, the score is lower, and I don´t know exactly if I should solve these issues.
Thanks
I’ve tried a few plugins, they all give the same result. About copyrights issues – all images are legit, my aim is to reduce server load. I’m using http://cloudinary.com/ service. It’s a great service providing compression and CDN for your files (there is also a free plan), so instead of hosting your images on your local server, you can host them on the cloud server. In such a way you gain point in page speed, in cache and in server load time (noting that the Newspaper theme uses Lazy Load as well). If you are putting an image in your post, I recommend using this service. In my case, I want the featured image to be loaded from an external URL. Maybe eventually I will find something.
I’m using W3TC and Cloudflare with Flexible SSL enabled. I’ve disabled minification on Cloudflare and am using W3TC to reduce the number of requests. I do basic minification of CSS and html, but not JS since minifying JS breaks images on my front page. I also combine all CSS into a single file and JS into a single file to reduce the number of requests to my server, which also has the benefit of removing query strings so I can be sure all my CSS, JS, and HTML is being cached correctly by any caching proxies between me and my readers. Minifying html also improves pagespeed slightly since Cloudflare doesn’t cache or optimize HTML.
This also has the added benefit of not having to do a manual process every time I update my Newspaper theme.
Obviously, I’ve also disabled Cloudflare in the W3TC plugin so it doesn’t know I’m using Cloudflare. This means if I do feel the need to clear my Cloudflare cache for some reason, I have to do it manually from the Cloudflare website.

Hi Guys,
I have got my site almost to the level where I can release it, however I have a few major issues that I will discuss here with you.
I can’t add screenshots so its going to be a little bit harder but I’ll just go into more detail. You’ll see my mention “I first noticed this when I uploaded the demo” I say this because I uploaded 2 of the demos and after seeing these below issues I uninstalled and started to build from scratch hoping that would avoid the below. It has not so here are my issues I am facing preventing me from releasing my site. Thank you for your time looking and helping.
1) So as I mentioned above, I have followed all of your instructions and my logo is still not retina quality as you will notice visiting the site. I have tried many different ways to get this to work following your instructions and trying to get round it with some tweaks but nothing has working so far. This is of huge importance to me releasing my site that the logo is super clear.
2) MAJOR ISSUE: I first noticed this when I uploaded the demo content, I have no thumbnails of my featured images displayed. (You will see when you visit the site) Please note all of my “thumbs on modules & blocks” are clicked on however the featured image IS displaying in the Mega menu.
3) MAJOR ISSUE: I first noticed this when I uploaded the demo content (video one) that when I post a video, if you click on to the post the video only displays on the left hand side of the screen in a box even though I am using style 10.
4) If you see the widgetised sidebar you’ll notice it is looking very bland. I see the thumbnail for the post is not being displayed. I know it will look better once it is displayed. The category/tag cloud section is very bland, will there be any added design when the above is fixed.
5)I first noticed this when I uploaded the demo If you see my mega menu you’ll notice that when you hover the mouse over ‘Evolve’ in the menu it only displays ‘all’ in the mega menu. When you hover over sport & fitness it does not register. Could you please help me fix this.
These are the issues I need to be fixed so my site can go live along. My design right now is very simple however after some weeks I will make it more complex at one point eventually looking like your newspaper demo site.
Your help is greatly appreciated, thank you for your time and wonderful theme. I look forward to hearing back and getting my site live!
If you need to go into my site and fix these issues as I assume they are big issues you need to fix in the code so my log in details are evolveonline.co/wp-admin
Many thanks,
Josh

I use a CDN on my website. All settings CDN, Plugin W3TC, Server, Cloudflare is correct. But why all the pictures post does not appear? on the homepage and post articles.
Typography and symbols of social media (FB, Twitter etc) changed all
I try to use another theme, a picture emerged. But when using the Newspaper does not appear.
You can check on my website Ahexa.com
thanks
Hi,
I’m experiencing the same issue.
Cloudflare has rocket load and cache disabled. Sometimes, the pictures won’t show up until you refresh a couple of times.
Not other caching plugin is used.

Hi,
Cloudflare cache should work as long as you don’t change the query on each request. You could use the browser Network tool(on Chrome) to check if a file is cached – http://screencast.com/t/pOS62ffqR0L
The version query is present on all wordpress themes, it’s not a specific Newspaper behavior.
If your query string is changed on each request check the plugins, you may have one which does that.
Some proxies may be set not to cache links which come with query strings, but if you use cloudflare you shouldn’t worry about this.
Speed booster is not related to proxy or caching, it just moves the css and js at the page bottom. To avoid any possible conflict we added a check which enables it only for the plugins with which it was tested. You could try to enable it for all plugins, for this just delete or comment the following code – http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh
Thank you!

Hello extpress,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such option to add a new network to TagDiv social counter. Our Social Counter has support for Facebook fans, Twitter followers, YouTube subscribers, Vimeo, Instagram, Google Plus, Soundcloud and Feed subscribers as you can see in our documentation, here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial-2/ Please notice that this thing is not a simple task and if you want to add another network please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to implement this thing for you in our theme, because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry! Another possibility would be to use a plugin with this functionality, test it for your side and see how it works for you.
We plan to add more social buttons to Social Counter plugin, but I cannot provide an exact date when this will be implemented as we have over 200 features on our list and we have to chose carefully which one get’s implemented next.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!

The CSS Minify may not be needed because these days, The CSS files are optimized and minified already.
I recommend and use Cloudflare, but not W3TC though, don’t use anything except WP Super Cache, you won’t like the results.
I have tried them all except WP-Rocket, I am yet to test that plugin.
Cheers
Has anyone investigated how query strings in Newspaper and Cloudflare caching interact?
I currently have Newspaper and CloudFlare “Caching Level” set to “Standard” which means it does its best. My understanding is developers version files like this for cache busting purposes so when the theme is updated, browsers will see the new version in the query parameter and download the latest version. I’d much rather see the version number in the URL path, so each version is a different path, but presumably WordPress doesn’t support that.
GTMetrix and Pingdom both call out all these query strings might slow down proxy caches by keeping them from caching these files. Long story short, I’m wondering if that’s the case with CloudFlare and if anyone here has done anything to see if there’s a need to investigate further.
FWIW, I do not use Tagdiv’s speed booster plugin since it’s incompatible with several key core plugins.
Silly question, but wouldn’t you have to do this copy/paste procedure every time Tagdiv releases a new version of the theme?
I’m currently relying on CloudFlare to minify the files in their cache since W3 Total Cache minification breaks the theme. I’m planning to experiment with Autoptimize to see if it’s any better.
Hi there,
All of a sudden, as I paste a “POST LINK” to my 10KeyThings Facebook page, it is not showing Post Title, Post Featured Image, Post Description. It is showing only the Website name.
Latest plugins I have installed are:
Auto Optimize, EWWW optimizer, and Jetpack today after the problem.
Other plugins I am using: All in One SEO, CloudFlare
I have even installed the latest theme 6.6.4 today to get this problem sorted. I have tried removing all the plugins too. Deactivating all the latest plugins too. But the problem is still standing.
Could anybody please address this concern asap.
Try using the post link as sample at your FB page:
https://10keythings.com/obamas-tears/
to understand the situation of my problem.
Also, even if I am sharing the post from my Add+ Sharing Buttons, the same problem persists.
Your URGENT support will be of great assistance to me.
Thanks in advance.

I deactivated completely cloudflare and it’s still not doing it.
I just sent you an email with all the details.
Cheers,
Hello,
It is possible that some options from cludflare could interfere with the translations. Try to switch a few options on and off from cloudflare and see if one does the trick (especially rocketloader and minification). If you still can’t get translations to work please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can take a look. Please include a link to this topic as well.
Thank you!
