I have configured a site to be exactly how I want.
When I move the site over to another URL I loose pretty much everything.
I have used the WORDPRESS migration install tool, which creates a new database and moves over the site in its entirety except for CCS and Newspaper configurations. I have to go in via the Theme Tab and reset all the colors and header settings. Basically I have to reset everything manually.
The one thing that I cannot seem to resolve is the placement of the Revolution Slider.
On the original site, I select Style 6 and this places the Slider directly under the Main Navigation Menu without a gap. The color is all seamless. When I move this over to the new site, no matter what I do I cannot get the Revolution Slider to be in the correct position as the original site. This can be demonstrated by going to https://www.culpablecrimes.com to see the Slider in the correct position, then moving to https://culpablecrimes.mokana.com and seeing the white space between the menu and the slider.
After the WORDPRESS migration, I even did a massive FTP of the original site and checked the database for any CSS. Still the same results. None of the CSS and color schemes are active.
Lastly: I would upgrade to 8.7 if I could find the instructions on how to do it. Where are they?
Thanks

Just fyi —
The envato ‘plugin’ updater will never work 100% of the time and may break site.
Always *best* to do it via FTP, as you can make a safety backup of your site before uploading new folders, in case something breaks or bad plugin causes site to not work at all due to some unexpected compatibility issue.
Also remember when doing major upgrade
– backups should be made of working website
– you will need to update theme, and theme related plugins; disable other plugins for testing
– disable any caching plugins, clear caching
– ideally disable mod_pagespeed during upgrade if using that via htaccess
– after upgrade you may want to use the wp-optimize plugin to help clean up any gremlins in dbase; –and– you should resave your ‘permalinks’ to clear transients
– you will also need to clear your history/cache in web browser to ensure you’re seeing the new CSS for site being loaded properly, or site may look broken/different
Also worth considering
a) copy the text/shortcodes from your home page layout into text file
b) copy/export any custom css
c) copy/export to text file any complicated widget codes you have setup

I have 2 questions:
1. How can I change ‘comment box’ title style to block header template?
2. How can I make a list of links on sidebar the same style as block title above banner?
I moved site to another server. Backup was made with Updraft plugin and restored with the same plugin. According to the plugin, no files were missing and restoration of all site files was 100% successful. When I try to load the page, it is broken as hell! Desktop version as well as mobile version. All media is blank, css is missing, nothing is working as it should be.

https://gyazo.com/5d305be44eb40c78137fd9c2bf196ef5
P.S. It would be great to implement PRIVATE option here when we’re requesting for help in order to hide images or files or whatever we don’t want other people to know about. I don’t want that all people from this forum know what’s my site and what I’m doing, for example.

I noticed that new demos (https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_crypto/ and https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_city_news/ ) have main container width (https://c2n.me/3RUyq0X.png) much bigger than standard theme, How to achieve that? Or it is complex css customization made just for these demos?
Thanks.
Go to theme file style.css ligne 4917 and delete : color: #000;
@Simion. So the custom CSS in the parent theme is saved in the database?
There is a serious error on wp_booster CSS compiler: tried a fresh install too, no luck.
Turned debug mode on and saw few critical errors about wp_booster scripts.
Downgraded to v8.6
Fix needed.
Reinstalled theme from scratch:
Issue is now is this:

'phone' => td_global::$theme_panel_custom_css_fields_list['tds_responsive_css_phone'],
);
Hi,
That could be done with CSS. It would depend however for which block type you want to do this. The demo which has this customization uses a code like this to style the module thumb for module 2
– https://www.screencast.com/t/lU0GZHXRpdx
If you could mention the block type for which you want the code to apply, I will give you a similar solution.
Thanks
Hi,
That would depend on what changes you would like to make to the author box. Visual improvements could be made with CSS. The browser inspector can be used to customize various elements on the website, if there are no theme elements for this
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
I could give you a code to style the box, if you could provide some examples.
Thanks
Hello SeLoRe,
Please notice that the Scroll to Top Button cannot be disabled but only through the code, sorry! Also, notice that does not exist any such an option that allows you to do this. If you have some custom CSS code you which affect this button you should remove it, clear all the caches and check the results.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
The embed iframes seem to have wrong position properly, that is why they appear like that. I couldn’t say exactly why they have that positioning, the others do not have it.
Please enter this code in Theme panel->Custom CSS and it should fix the issue
– https://www.screencast.com/t/KEohag1sei
– https://www.screencast.com/t/wTTboxjHwar9
.td-post-content .instagram-media {
position:initial!important;
}
Thanks
Hi,
There is a simple solution for that. Enter the custom code in Theme panel->Advanced CSS for the sections (screen widths) you want it to apply.
If you want that code to work only on desktop and not affect mobiles, enter in in the desktop section
– https://www.screencast.com/t/aM3DTvxx5K
Thanks
Hi,
That black color is coming from the demo. It is predefined in the demo stylesheet
– https://www.screencast.com/t/cAANl3sO53
A solution would be to remove that color from the mentioned location. Then the theme panel set color will apply
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ryqb5HQDk1
Or you could modify it to a desired color in the same location. Or use a code to override it (custom code can be entered in Theme panel-Custom CSS)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/r03d3lp1RG
.td-gadgets .td-header-style-5 .sf-menu > li > a:hover {
color: yellow;
}
Thanks
Hi,
You could use some CSS to change the default colors. Like this basic example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/sNyYc4YSXZO
This is the code used
.td_block_trending_now .td-trending-now-title {
background-color: blue;
color:yellow;
}
If you wanted something else please mention what exactly you want to change about the news ticker.
You can use the browser inspector to make various customization to theme elements
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
Thanks
Hi,
We could try a more general code and see if it works for you. Something like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/QgFM5nt3fU9u
The code will add a border bottom to the top menu and main menu, all the values in the code can be changed (border size, style and color)
.td-header-menu-wrap,
.td-header-top-menu-full {
border-bottom: 5px solid red;
}
Custom codes such as this can be entered in the Theme panel->Custom CSS section. Try it and see if it works properly.
Such customization can easily be done with the browser inspector tool. Inspect the location you want to customize and identify the elements used. Then create custom code. This is a guide in the matter with some examples
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
If the code does not work for you, please mention the header style used, it might need modifications.
Thanks
That could be done but not by a theme option. It could be done with CSS. For example if you want to hide this menu item on desktop
– https://www.screencast.com/t/FCCYcUtRtNiK
You could use a code like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/Hr46fGoWBrZ
Entering that code in Theme panel->Advanced CSS in the desktop section, will hide that menu item on desktop. It will only be visible in tablets and phones.
Each menu has a unique class, which can be used to target it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/IpCgtTfqfj
This is the code I used in the example
.menu-item-724 {
display: none;
}
Hello, I want the tap part of my website menu look rather big, then I add the code in costum CSS:
.td-header-main-menu{
padding: 10px;
}
.td-header-sp-rec{
padding-top: 20px;
but it turns out if opened through the mobile device logonya cut off. How to solve it for logo + mobile-toggle + search button is back in the middle. But if opened through the desktop the menu part is still the same as I want above.
my website: https://www.rudiberbagi.com
this screenshot in the desktop: http://prntscr.com/iebqz8
and this screenshot in mobile device:http://prntscr.com/iebrjt
