I upgraded my site above and my menu completely broke.
Issue 1: The drop down menu on my site under “streetwear” lost all its styling.
Issue 2: On mobile the navigation menu completely doesnt work.
Hi,
Please make sure that the code that you have set in header ad is couplet and all tags are close; if there is still a problem, please try this custom css
.td-header-sp-recs .adsbygoogle {
position: relative;
}
Thank you!
Hello,
There could be a css affecting the element. Please provide a link to your post so we can inspect it and figure out why this happens.
Thank you!
Why not simply change the css associated with a class rather than changing the entire class? We do not recommend changing class names as it will break the theme functionality. Use css to rewrite the rules if styling is what you are after. What is it you are trying to achieve as an end result?
Hi,
Sorry but the thee does not have any setting to create such an element. You could create it with css but you will need to hire a developer to help with the needed code if you do not have the needed coding skills to create the css code yourself.
Thank you!
I want to customize the style of li tag in the body only… so we have to add CSS on this
.td-post-content ol li::before{ }
I’ve updated to the latest version of Newspaper and now my custom code for rewriting ad div class doesn’t work anymore.
I want to rename the custom_ad_x part to custom_new_x and the code below used to work just fine in /wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/shortcodes/td_block_ad_box.php in the function render_ads, line 1937
$buffy = ”;
$check_css_name = array(‘custom_ad_1’, ‘custom_ad_2’, ‘custom_ad_3’, ‘custom_ad_4’, ‘custom_ad_5’);
if (in_array($spot_id, $check_css_name)){ $spot_id = str_replace(“ad”, “new”, $spot_id); }
$buffy .= ‘<div class=”td-a-rec td-a-rec-id-‘ . $spot_id . $align . ‘ ‘
Any idea why the replace function isn’t working anymore, or how I could go about changing the output of the custom_ad css in ad boxes?
Hello !
Sorry for missunderstanding your issue !
It appears that all of your blocks are cut off: https://www.screencast.com/t/arPvQL3otznj You will need to remove that 50 margin on the blocks. You can do that by editing the blocks using the tagDiv Composer in the CSS Tab like here: https://www.screencast.com/t/bhhBHrv9
Let me know if this works now !
Thank you !
OK, I have made some progress with creating a header but still have some issues, basically I am trying to recreate what we have in Newspaper 8.8.2 using Newspaper 9.7.3 and the Header Builder. My issues are:
1. I can’t set my submenus to use “background” as the hover style, I only have Default and Underline. Not sure why background appears for the main menu but not for the submenus.
2. I cannot see a way to set the height of a menu. My top menu is twice as high vertically as it needs to be but I see no way to adjust that. I even tried creating a custom class for the menu in the TD composer and then adding CSS to set the height but that did not work either.
3. The logo and header ad elements I have in the Header Builder appear to be positioned correctly, but when I preview them the header ad (728×90) shrinks way down and the logo moves far to the left.
4. I have the live search in the header menu, but I had to create a 3/4 + 1/4 column and put the menu in the 3/4 and the live search in the 1/4, but now there is way too much space between where the menu ends and the search starts. Not sure how I can close that up. You can’t seem to click and drag to adjust sizes or spacing in the builder.
I have created three images to show what I am describing above. One is the view of the new header in the header builder, one is the wya it previews, and the third is the header I have on our live site, which is using Newspaper 8.8.2. Thanks for any guidance you can provide.

Hello,
I have two issues on my home page that I can’t resolve.
At Marketwisetrader.com in the upper right corner (see screenshot) there’s an inline text box and below it a Block 8 with post thumbnails.
I’ve inserted iframe code, both with and without the html, but the stock quotes don’t display. I’ve also tried inserting the code in an Ad block but no luck with the display. Suggestions?
In the collumn below, the block 8 shows post titles and a thumbnail photo for each. How can I change the post titles to 15px high? I’ve tried in the theme panel and set ‘height to 15px/line height 17px’, in Module 8 (don’t find block 8 anywhere) but this doesn’t change it. I’ve tried to change with CSS but it seems something is overriding my CSS.
Suggestions?
Thanks,
Lon

Hello !
The Newspaper theme has a lot of features in order to have a lot of options when it comes to modfiying it, including special tabs for adding custom codes like CSS.
My personal opinion is to ditch the child theme. It would cause a lot of problems in the future updates since there may be changes and you will find yourself in a situation where you won’t be able to apply the child theme anymore or who knows what issues you may confront.
I think it’s easier to learn the theme and edit it with the options that are available.
You can see here some of the examples I was talking about: https://www.screencast.com/t/kIOBflNxDo ; https://www.screencast.com/t/Xvy9t8R0mx3
So, to answer your question, You shouldn’t use child theme on a brand new website using the Newspaper Theme.
Thank you !
Hello,
I just purchase the Newspaper theme, the website will be new, so at the moment is empty.
I am a bit confusing about to use or not the child theme. Usually until now when I start a new website I create a child theme with functions.php, style.css and header.php files.
So when I add some custom css into style.css or google ads into the header.php, if I update the theme nothing broken.
What happen now? Which is the best way to start create the website with child-theme or not? Notice I make changes into header.php (google ads) and maybe some css changes.
Thank you.
Hi,
Please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict with untested plugins, please deactivate all plugins and child theme ( if you are using ) and let only the tagDiv Composer , clear all cache, deactivate the cache plugin and try again.
Since Newspaper v9.7 the child theme is working only for the functions.php and style.css files.
We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
Also since Newspaper v9.7 the api plugin cannot be used anymore, sorry! it has been replaced by a new plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/developer-info/
You could use this plugin from now on. Or experiment with flex blocks, maybe what it used to be possible only with the api plugin, it is now possible with flex blocks and grids

Thank you!
Hi,
If you have the latest version of Newspaper theme and you do not have any functions in fucntions.php or style.css ( also you can set the css from directly in theme panel> in custom code>custom css ) you can delete it without problems.
Thank you!

Hi,
Please try this custom css -> https://www.screencast.com/t/TmYnpM4XHz5
.td-footer-page .tdc-row:last-child .wpb_text_column:first-child .td-fix-index {
margin-top: 8px;
}
Thanks.
Hi,
That depend of the type of the code you want to insert, for css, javascript and html you can insert the code in Theme panel -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Rn7759OyL
Thank you!
Hi,
Please note that we do not recommend using the child theme, sorry! Most of the theme files were moved into the tagDiv composer plugin as per the requirements of Envato: https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements.
We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/ Moving forward with such requirements, a child theme will only work with functions.php, and style.css, as there are very few files left in the main theme as Envato, requires all functionality to be added through plugins.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for understanding!
Hello !
You can add the option and use a custom css to give a display:none option to it. So it will be there but you won’t be able to see it. This requires custom work and we cannot offer it due to our support policy: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-support/
Thank you !
Hello !
For the date to reappear you will have to add it from the tagDiv Composer Elements like here: https://www.screencast.com/t/4Wn2KP9X once aded you can edit it through the composer css.
Unfortunately we cannot help you with your view all button since it requires custom work and we cannot offer it due to our support policy: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-support/
Thank you !
