Hi,
when I purchased the theme I installed the dark demo and kept working on/with it.
1. When I inspect the code, though, I see a lot of the word “demo” in the code itself, which doesn’t look very nice. Also the css looks like having one css overwriting the other. Sometimes the final css property in the inspector lays on top of 4 or 5 crossed out css properties which it overwrites.
>> Is it possible to clean up the installation so the code looks “not demo” and the css is clearer, while keeping the current look and settings?
2. I haven’t used a child theme from the beginning but i feel the necessity now.
>> If I create the child now, will it affect the way the site looks? Is there a specific procedure to start a child theme from zero when the website is up and running?
Thank you
JP
Ok, but when I change that it also affects the size of the block titles on the hompage. Is there some custom css that would adjust just the footer “About Us” and “Follow us”. You can see on your Sound Radar demo that the hompage block titles are larger font, and the “About Us” “Follow Us” are a smaller size and match the sidebar font size.
Thanks.
Hi,
Block 21 displays excerpts in all cases, except when placed on one column layout
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-21/
Excerpts can be controlled for each module, here you can see what modules the blocks use
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
So block 21 uses module 16, that means that you can modify the excerpt size here

If you have a different problem, please provide a link to your website and also more details.
Thanks

Hello Scottseol,
Please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-install-revolution-slider-v5/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-revolution-sliders-on-demos/
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
If you meant these lines – https://www.screencast.com/t/45pzxj5vhL those are simple borders set on the header menu – https://www.screencast.com/t/zRLobx70
Of course the demo has other modifications in order to display like it is. You can find the demo stylesheet here if you think it would be helpful for you, or maybe use styling from the demo for your design
– https://www.screencast.com/t/veVdfFzYM941
So if you would like to modify header style 1 to be like in the demo, you could do it like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Wmq9Iax7aelq
– https://www.screencast.com/t/iytrwfvBwjJt
These codes must be entered in Theme panel->Custom Css section.
Thanks

When Install demo without content, This will import our predefined settings for the demo (background, template layouts, fonts, colors etc…).
The question is: “Where can I find css for fonts, colors and other codes of the demo? Thank you for showing!
Good to learn to use console inspector in Chrome, and also ‘view source’ option on your post page(s).
a) in Chrome, F12 allows you to see the content, and identify anything not loading https
b) in Chrome ‘view source’ allows you to *see* your HTML and ‘search’ for elements like any instance of ‘http’ to track down WHAT is not loading via https.
Often it’s an external plugin, or other issue. But tracking down WHAT it is specifically helps to determine what needs fixing. Often something super simple.
All my Newsmag sites run https with no issues, but I do know a couple of the early ‘demo’ setups had some background image or something that wasn’t https in the code.
Couple of tips:
a) make sure your site is explicitly entered in your wp-config.php file as https (see the wordpress.org codex docs on editing your wp-config.php file — also very good to know if running a WP site of any kind)
b) if you recently changed your site from http to https, you need to do search/replace via phpmyadmin to your mysql dbase after making backup, to search/replace all instances of http://yoursite to https://yoursite
c) consider adding an element to your htaccess file in your public root (depending on whether you have one there or not), which does a force redirect for any http request to https (often this can be setup on modern web servers, but GoDaddy probably not).
Note last example here:
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/236734/wordpress-redirect-all-http-requests-to-https-via-htaccess

Hello,
What are these two entries for?
.td-menu-background,
.td-search-background {
Background-image: url (‘http://192.168.0.208/wp_011_test_demos/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/1.jpg’);
}
.white-popup-block: before {
Background-image: url (‘http://192.168.0.208/wp_011_test_demos/wp-content/uploads/2017/05/1.jpg’);
}
Https is prevented!
Thank you.

Hi. Is it possible to build a full screen home page using newspaper theme?
I would like to build something like this https://www.templatemonster.com/demo/58404.html
but not sure if that is possible.
Thanks,
Miso
Can I ask for logo files of these demo versions?
Unfortunately, they are not in the package

Hello ventoura,
Please notice that is not a simple task to do this, sorry! Each demo has a certain design, style and Custom CSS code which is applied only if the demo is activated from theme panel. Notice that we cannot provide support for changing the style of our demo, sorry! You should choose a demo you like or if you want to make some adjustments on it, you should do it yourself.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi Simon,
Thanks for the instructions.
But what we have to do with posts created with VC?
If we are using tagdiv composer we are getting wider posts, and also the demos are not working properly. This made me loose trust on tag div in future updates…
sample post with issue https://www.stufeed.com/tech/airtel-makes-free-unlimited-outgoing-calls-local-std-all-mobile-calls-with-daily-2-gb-3g4g-data-free/
Its terrible..
even I am not getting any option to edit those posts with tagdiv.. so how can i activate the tag div composer to realign my post pages?
also the mobile plugin has issues.
I have wasted much time in installing the theme by all the ways but nothing worked properly.
Only way is to uninstall/deactivate tagdiv composer and enable only VC
Hello LGA2017,
Your code seems to be not good because you are not using the right classes. Because I do not have your website, I tried on our demo to create a custom code for logo text. For example, try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area and change the style.
The code is ->
.td-politics .td-header-style-11 .td-logo-text {
font-size: 95px;
}
.td-politics .td-header-style-11 .td-tagline-text {
font-size: 25px;
font-family: "Arimo";
letter-spacing: 2.8px;
}
And the result is here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/pfuZk9nu50
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I see that there are excerpts displayed on your website
– https://www.screencast.com/t/c8ySdBQZegu
– https://www.screencast.com/t/K6eMQc8Fbf4
Please note that not all modules and blocks display the excerpt field. Here you can see how all the blocks look in different layouts

Hello,
I tried installing newspaper 8 on my website today, and it installs. The problem is when I try to install the composer. It says:
The plugin does not have a valid header.
Downloading install package from https://www……
Download failed. Not Found
Return to tagDiv plugins panel
I checked the theme directory it has the plugin in the plugins directory. I also tried uploading it manually and it activates, but once I try to download a demo, it deactivates and gets deleted.
I deactivated all plugins and everything from the website and the same issue keeps occurring.
I thought it was permissions problem so I set my directory permissions as follows:
sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /var/www
sudo chmod -R 775 /var/www
that didn’t change a thing though.
What should I do?
Thank you! I really appreciate your concern. I downloaded the theme again and it seems to be working the way the demo was now, however all the work that I have done since yesterday has been removed, nothing transferred over. My social options that were programmed, all header and footer info – totally wiped out. I spent 8 hours strait and that is a lot of work for a do it yourself theme. A lot was changed. I STILL cannot activate the theme manually or otherwise, I am hoping someone will respond soon. I thought about facebook, but I would like to use social media as a last resort. This has been a frustrating experience as a consumer. Tagdiv/Envato needs to have a more reliable customer service avenue for people to reach out to. If you have millions of customers then you will most likely have millions of issues as well – its just how it works. I own A LOT of domain names and I will not pay developers to test waters with some of my sites, once I am fixated on it and believe it is a go I will then invest. This is why I use these services and expect them to be reliable and responsive – hold up to their claims. Hopefully it will go more smoothly from here on out. Thank you for your advice x
Hi,
I have installed the demo you mention but I do not have any problem what so ever. Try deactivating all your plugins except the ones provided with the theme, clear any installed cache and install the demo again. Also check the theme system status and make modifications if needed to the parameters mentioned in this guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Please let us know if you still have a problem.
Thanks
Update:
This issue is directly related to a demo (Cars Blog). When I uninstalled the demo the problems went away!
