Hi,
I added this on our list, please try this custom css to fix it: http://screencast.com/t/ZvIdNkqcOi
.td_mega_menu_sub_cats {
clear: both;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Try this code in your header style file – http://pastebin.com/cAx8Bmf0
And use only this custom css to add background as the logo and the ad are already positioned: http://screencast.com/t/cWnFn9gdYt
.full-bg {
background-color: red;
}
Unfortunately Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer is not tested with the theme, so I can only recommend you to check this also without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer and Ultimate Addons active, clear cache and see if you still have this issue. Also if you still have issues with it please try with a default theme and see how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi.
That CSS is now live and the margin still exists.
Thanks
Hi,
Please use this custom css and note that this will only apply to that specific custom container: http://screencast.com/t/v2QzR1rXbu
Add this custom css in theme panel > custom css section:
.vc_custom_1432038881241 .widget_text {
margin-bottom: 0px;
}
.vc_custom_1432038881241 .textwidget p {
margin: 0px;
}
.vc_custom_1432038881241 {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
Thanks
Hello,
I’m using mega menu with sub-categories. Now, when I entered a pretty long name for the particular article, it corrupted the menu layout:
How can I fix that? Maybe to add some CSS rules to make mega menu a little bit bigger?
Thanks!
Hi,
Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/5gXYndCE
.similar-articles .block-title {
margin-bottom: 0px !important;
}
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
Thanks for your quick reply.
If I place the ad in “article bottom ad” it places it and the custom ad 1 above the ‘share’ and ‘tags’.
Placing it in the custom ad 1 on it’s own and editing the code is working best so far (http://www.tntreport.com/sweden-cuts-rates-below-zero-launches-qe/), but for some reason leaves a large gap from the ads to the bottom of it. Even if I edit the images to be smaller.
FYI, the same coding works fine on my other 2 sites (using different themes) for this ad, so am assuming the issue might be theme coding related.
What else can we try?
Here’s the CSS editing I did based on your recommendation:
http://www.tntreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/Screen-Shot-2015-05-19-at-8.40.59-pm.jpg
Also, do you know how I can remove the area where it says “NO COMMENTS Comments are closed.”?
As I will not be having comments in any of the articles on the site.
Thanks
Hi,
For Newspaper theme please edit td_authors.php and add this code: http://screencast.com/t/HKkmrz6F1r
$buffy .= '<div class="td-authors-description">';
$buffy .= '<p>' . get_the_author_meta( "description", $td_author->ID ) . '</p>';
$buffy .= '</div>';
Also please add this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/4nEPUjRNw6Bi
.td_top_authors .item-details {
height: auto;
}
Thanks!

Hi,
You can try to place your code in “Article bottom ad” so I can inspect this and try to provide you a css solution for that space.
Also if you wnat to place your ad bellow share button like in your example you can try to paste your code in a custom ad and use do_shortcode function to display it after bottom social share – http://screencast.com/t/2EynJrxz
<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');?>
Result: http://screencast.com/t/b1AiHmv0T3
Hope this helps!

Hi,
Thanks Chris!
@Samm You can try this custom css to reduce the size of articles box on mobile – http://screencast.com/t/o5ZALedkJIR
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-more-articles-box-title {
min-width: 170px !important;
}
.td-more-articles-box {
width: 200px !important;
padding: 15px 5px 0px 5px !important;
}
.td-close-more-articles-box {
left: 0px !important;
}
}
Or you can hide it if you want to not be displayed on small screens – http://screencast.com/t/zUXUBfos
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-more-articles-box {
display: none;
}
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an option to disable sidebar on mobiles, but you can hide it via custom css:
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-main-sidebar {
display: none !important;
}
}
Thanks!
Hi,
You will need custom modifications to the code as the above css set a fixed width to the container so the background color will not be full width.
Please make a backup of your current file and try to replace the content of header-style-8.php file with this – http://pastebin.com/SjY7yrCn
Remove the first css code that I provided to you and use this custom css to add a full background and place the logo to the left: http://screencast.com/t/VtGllUzS
.full-bg {
background-color: red;
}
.td-header-style-8 .td-header-sp-logo img {
margin-left: 0;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Once again when the smart snap mobile is active the main menu remain fixed on desktop screens(when you scroll up or down) and on mobile appears only when you scroll up. We check your site many times and it is working properly, please clear cache.
1. Please try this custom css to hide “to top” button: http://screencast.com/t/TIfAu6B4kt8
.td-scroll-up-visible {
display: none !important;
}
2. Also for h5 you can change the font size using media queries: http://screencast.com/t/Zzrwvc46gj
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-post-text-content h5{
font-size: 20px;
}
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately theme doesn’t have an option to change the content background. You can do this via custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/QVZNKNstYy but have to do more customizations there for example in post page few elements have a different background and you need to change it also with css code- http://screencast.com/t/Z4r2sAQco6T
Also some widget text color(if you need another color) have to be changed as you can see – http://screencast.com/t/o4buIRkx7
You will need custom work for this and if you don’t have css/html experience I suggest to hire a professional to do this for you as we cannot offer custom work for the moment, sorry.
About you issue with logo issue please provide more details and your site url so we can take a look.
Thanks!
Hi,
Yes, you can display it using custom css as the top menu was not designed for mobile devices that’s why is hidden.
You can add this custom css to display it also on mobiles but you may need some additional customizations for menu items that may drop on more rows – http://screencast.com/t/rHnQKiUT
.td-header-menu-wrap {
display: block !important;
}
A solution will be to hide some top menu elements(if you want only menu to be visible) using media queries – http://screencast.com/t/E7jiGxvPO6Co – this is an example
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-header-menu-wrap {
display: block !important;
}
.td-header-menu-wrap .td_data_time, .td-header-menu-wrap .td-social-wrap, .td_ul_login {
display: none;
}
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make this change in menu-top.php: http://screencast.com/t/8qh24anQ
And use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/YUGnv4co
.td-header-menu-wrap .td_data_time {
float: right;
}
.menu-top-container {
float: right;
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/OLIEJjnj
.td-big-grid-post .td-big-grid-meta .td-sbig-title-wrap a:hover span {
text-decoration: none !important;
}
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
Thank you so much for this!
2) Noted on the image size of 745×483. I thought it was 700px. My mistake. Sorry. I’ve input the code in Theme Panel > Custom CSS. Solve the thumbnail issue.
3) That explains it! I setup the sidebar widget in Homepage AND Widget so I was seeing double. I deleted those in Widget. I now know I should put a Widgetised Sidebar in the page content and setup my sidebar in Widget instead.
4) I’ve removed Adsense as it’s not appearing on the site. Others are fine.
5) Figured out the comment box issue yesterday. Thanks 🙂
Thanks again for the help!
Some suggestions
a) don’t use child theme, as it’s a redirect
b) ensure you have caching running on server like opcache, etc.
c) be sure to use normal WP optimizations (as per my own optimization sticky) — enough memory allocated to php, and upgrade default RAM for WP in wp-config.php -etc.
d) limit queries on post pages — meaning, avoid “most popular 7 days” kinds of things, try one query of “latest 5 stories” vs having three sidebar queries of 3 latest posts from 3 categories; try not using mega-menu to query dbase for story elements .. limit queries in footer
e) remove CSS over-rides in theme panel, move to style.css
f) consider using things like mod_pagespeed and or mod_SPDY if you serve all pages via https
g) turn off image thumbnail sizes you don’t actually use; plan layouts to limit total number of sizes for thumbs to no more than 5 or 3 if really going for speed
h) check server response time — which has nothing to do with theme and needs server to be optimized (our pages respond in 0.31 secs on avg., regardless of theme with only minor optimizations)
And of course look at some of the theme docs for suggestions from TagDiv on speed/performance.
Food for thought 🙂

Hello! Thanks for the help. The Product Features I’m looking for is just a nice bullet point style box with a selectable icon. I’ll keep searching for it. I think the CSS hint will lead me down the right path.
Hi,
You can use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css to hide it: http://screencast.com/t/6SOinVNEzOX
.top-header-menu {
display: none;
}
Or if you want to remove the text you can find it in menu-top.php – http://screencast.com/t/VII9KLhy
Thanks!
Hi,
2. Your image width must be at least 745x483 – http://screencast.com/t/Ohpp7LDCNPwx to fill the whole container. If your featured image is smaller, please note that WordPress doesn’t enlarge images and you will need to use plugin like Thumbnail Upscale to enlarge thumbnails: https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ For upscale use a combination of plugins Thumbnail Upscale + Force Regenerate.
Or you can enlarge it via custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/IirORJvZT
.td_block_big_grid .td-big-grid-post-0 .entry-thumb {
width: 100%;
}
3. You have to set your sidebar(create and set it/or use default) for articles – http://screencast.com/t/uc2GFE896yX and add widgets to it from the Widgets section – http://screencast.com/t/2IeVvKc5
Also for your pages you can use Widgetised Sidebar for your page content – http://screencast.com/t/2f7bKm2Dsh and for latest articles you can set the sidebar – http://screencast.com/t/iP3xaAkR
4. I have checked your homepage and you have an header ad and a sidebar ad. You can use Ad box block to display an ad in your page content: http://screencast.com/t/e6XneHoo0su
Also for your post you have to paste your code in Theme Panel > Ads – http://screencast.com/t/Nlgv9TjDNTAL and they should be displayed in the article content.
5. I also checked an articles from your site and the comment box is enabled – http://screencast.com/t/uzredDWbppt
Seems that you solved the issue – http://screencast.com/t/za78u9vbArQ
Thanks!
