So, I tested the TagDiv Newspaper Default theme with the Google Mobile Friendly testing tool. Screenshot of the Google test result
The test result: https://search.google.com/test/mobile-friendly/result?id=8M2iKKmwbUhHvAHJwHagRQ
This shows the video Outside the Viewport, and this is what the Google Bot is seeing and resulting in errors.
If we can fix this issue, it will help countless other website owners and publishers as well.
Ok. So, I did some research and did my own testing. Looks like when the Google Bot crawls the page, the YouTube video is actually Outise the viewport because when you see this example page on a mobile device/browser inspector: https://www.teslaoracle.com/2020/08/10/giga-austin-landscaping-drone-video/
You can see that before coming to its final form, the video is expanded vertically and horizontally, it settles after a few moments. This is what is causing the issue and it’s definitely coming from the theme not anything to do with my custom CSS as I also tried removing the CSS and re-testing.
This is causing huge SEO issues for my website and has given a dent to my traffic hence lost revenue, please fix it and provide and update to the theme, so that publishers like me can recover from the loss.
Hi,
I don’t find it appropriate that you annoy paying customers with an ad banner in the WP dashboard. While it may be ok on the theme panel page, it is absolutely NOT ok to show it on each and every dashboard page. How can I disable it properly? I could use some admin style CSS, of course. But there should be a better way to do it.
Thank you!

The CSS is there in the panel already, I will try re-pasting it. However, I am testing it by downgrading to the previous version.
Hello!
Please understand that you need to make these modifications to your videos.
If you added some CSS regarding your videos, then put it back after the update. We did not change anything in the theme regarding your issue.
@Edward Thanks for your intervention.
Thank you for understanding!
Hi,
You can set the border radius with custom code css
.td-content-more-articles-box .td-animation-stack .entry-thumb
{
border-radius: 25px;
}
and the font from theme panel -> theme fonts -> https://i.imgur.com/p8CIbGm.png
Thank you!
Hello!
Set this code in Newspaper -> Theme panel -> Custom code -> Custom CSS.
.td-slide-nav {display:none!important;}
You can write it like this: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_a_href.asp in that inline text element.
Thank you!
I did not make changes to any files, just some additional CSS through the Theme Panel.
The error started occurring after the new update.
I think it’s happening because I am stretching the video to Full Width horizontally. In the Demo websites, you showed Full Width videos on demo pages but when I installed the theme, it kept margins on both sides, I had to look at the code of your Demo website to make the videos go full-width and there is nothing recommended in Documentation for the best way to make videos full width on mobile devices.
Please recommend the best way to make videos Full Width like they are on Demo Pages.
I’ve just updated a customer site from V11 to V12. Now, we have a Newspaper ad at the top of the default sidebar. It is only shown, if you’re not logged in. Are you kidding me? My customer paid for a license. Why on earth do you throw an ad for your product on his site? Now, this happened before. But this time, even after 30 minutes searching I couldn’t find a way to disable it. I could use CSS to hide the widget, but I don’t like dirty workarounds. In addition to that, you set an inline style to display: block. So, I would need to use !important to change this. Thank you for nothing! So, how can I get rid of this annoying widget?
Hi,
Please go to the theme panel -> block settings -> inline css and disable the option to minify the css, clear the cache and check after.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please use a single post template -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/design-post-pages-using-cloud-library-templates/, and you need to have the single post view on the template or hide it with a custom code css for standard template.
There was a fix for this option because, normally, this should disable the option globally, which is why it was working in the previous versions.
Thank you!
Hi,
If I correctly understand you’ll like to display the reviews without having an author for that review. Unfortunately that system request an user to get the review. AN alternative is to set the review text in a column text or text with title and you can add the stars using a html, for this please use this guide – https://www.w3schools.com/howto/tryit.asp?filename=tryhow_css_star_rating
Thank you!
Hello,
You can apply the filter only on the Flex Block and Big Grid Flex -> https://imgur.com/Nnt3zGX
The Posts Loops settings are divided into 5 tabs: General, Layout, Style, ADS and CSS. The Posts loop is a special block and doesn’t have filtering options.
Also, one of the options for pagination of the Posts Loop has the option for normal numbered and the flex blocks do not have this option.
The Posts Loop is automatically filtering the posts depending on the cloud template you set (for example on the category page there will be posted posts from that category).
Thank you!
Hi,
Please go to the theme panel -> block settings -> inline css and disable the option to minify the css and clear the cache.
Thank you!
Hi RedKobra, I’m glad that you manage to find the css code you need!
Calin, never mind figured it out
position: absolute;
margin: auto;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);}
Been awhile since I used CSS.
Here is the final CSS code if anyone is interested
.single .mejs-video-container {
padding-bottom: 100%;
}
.mejs-video-container iframe {
height: 100%!important;
}
.mejs-video-container iframe {
width: 50%!important;
}
.mejs-video-container iframe {
position: absolute;
margin: auto;
top: 50%;
left: 50%;
transform: translate(-50%, -50%);}

Calin, thank you very much. I added one more line up CSS to it which was
.mejs-video-container iframe {
width: 70%!important;
Works perfectly!!!!!, however, I would like to center it in the post.
I tried this css code,
.mejs-video-container iframe {
align-items: center important;
}
But didnt work. Can you help me, thanks
Hi,
You can also use, this code .td-pb-row.vc_row {
display:block!important;
}
Please set the code in live css.
Thank you!
Hello,
If you hide it on all the viewports then it is harder to render it. If you hide it only on some viewports, simply select another viewport, click on your element, click back on the old viewport and change the display setting. Also, check this thread for the solution: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/cssdisplay-show-or-hidden/
Thank you!
Hi Mujaro, for the css layout, please provide the links with the problems and I will try my best to help you.
For extending the search to search for members you can try using an extra plugin like this one – https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-profile-search/
Thank you!
Hi,
Unfortunately, for the moment our theme do not have a system to set a custom font stack (I think that you can use a child theme and in style.css file to set a custom font stack, but you’ll also need to add those fonts in the theme). For the moment, in our theme you can set only custom fonts that can be set on elements as global or individual – https://forum.tagdiv.com/font-customization/
Thank you!
We have hidden some of our row blocks using the display option under the CSS settings. Now we need to revert it back, how can we do that? We are not able to see the row section even in the tagDiv composer. How can we change the section settings(display) from hidden to show
Hello,
What I can suggest is to try this custom css:
.single .mejs-video-container {
padding-bottom: 100%;
}
.mejs-video-container iframe {
height: 100%!important;
}
The code can be adjusted after your needs.
I hope this will help you!
Hi lexsiks,
If the problem appears only when you are not logged in, then it is related to the cache options, this is interfering with the css and javascript for the Gallery.
Thank you!
