Hi,
Great theme! Really enjoying using it. I think I’ve got everything worked out except the following:
How do I change or control the post order on category pages. For example if you go to your demo at http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/category/tagdiv-lifestyle/ you can see the 5 ‘main’ stores at the top and then other stories listed underneath this. For example there is a story on Whitewater rafting in the primary grid spot. Why is this here… is it the last post to be published? Is there any way of changing which post appears here?
On ‘pages’ I can control what appears in these areas (e.g. most popular posts over the last 7 days) but I can’t work out how to do the same on these main category post pages.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks!
Hello Bogdan
Thank you so much.
I could not wait for your answer. I spent the whole day working on the web.
To fix the error I installed the demo. But that gave me more work, it would have been easier in the way you said. Here is 1:16 a.m. so I’m going to sleep. Thank you
Hello,
Am building a site for my client using this theme. I would like to customize the look of the header like below…

Please check the wireframe at : http://izonedesigns.com/demo/header-layout.jpg
Can anyone help with this.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
This is mainly a server error. You can try to check upload permissions and change upload folder to 777.
You can also check these topics here:

Hi,
Actually, if you check our demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-3/ and select style 4, you will see that it is the way they behave.
This is how it looks at my end too: http://screencast.com/t/meqk8VFK
For the ‘sticky’ part, i don’t see where the text ‘sticks’ to the picture, but your picture in your big container is too small to fit. You can try either to upload bigger images or use a plugin called thumbnail upscale to stretch your images to fit the big containers.
I hope this helps.
Thanks.
Hello! I try to install demos include content but constant output error. https://yadi.sk/i/cJ_ATD-wjiQPy
Hi,
Unfortunately I cannot recommend you something, sorry! The choice has to made based on the target audience location and the services available on that area.
Our official demo is set on a GoDaddy dedicated server.
Thanks!
Hi
I love newspaper for many of its options, especially since V6, but i can’t stop thinking that the theme is out of date because of it is not full width.
Please have a look at the website http://www.hellolife.fr . The strength of the theme is that it looks really modern, is fullwidth… After looking at this url, if you return to any of your demo, it looks out of date. Don’t you think ?
I could buy as soon as possible a new theme of yours which would support full width…
Hi,
Please provide a link so I can inspect this, not sure how the image is distorted on mobile device, as it should not appear – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_sport/ – http://screencast.com/t/7xvf7OLbOD
Thanks!
Hello Andy,
In the same place you selected the category style, if you scroll a bit further, you will see the background upload widget: http://screencast.com/t/GUaS5xNuVdUl
Simply select your preferred image and it’s done. Example: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/category/template-style-8/
Thank you!

Hello ,
There is a block that has titles above images if you want to use it:
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-6/
If not, you can move the title of block 13 to the top with this custom CSS:
.td_module_14 .td-module-meta-info{
bottom: 325px;
}
.td_module_14 .entry-title:after{
border-bottom:none;
}
result:http://screencast.com/t/UAl470fZvQ
Thank you.
Hello chauffeur,
You can try to change the big grid style: http://screencast.com/t/egHUbXet3P
Every style has a different effect over the images. You can check these styles in action here: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-3/
If you want a lighter style, you can chose style 4 and if you don;t like the background-color of the title, you can remove it with this custom CSS:
.td-grid-style-4 .entry-title{
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.4)
}
result: http://screencast.com/t/X4UzrlwD
You can change the color and transparency in the code to the one you like best.
Thank you!
Thanks for the reply.
No, there was no demo content on the site. The site already had it’s own content when we changed to Newspaper.
Besides even the demo content won’t have numbers at the end of URLs (most probably)
Hello
issue: if we use tagDiv slider gallery with “Media Grid” of visual composer on same post, images on tagDiv slider gallery become like this http://i.imgur.com/aKvNi3j.jpg , if we remove Media Grid, it shows coorectly, could you please tel how to fix?
we are using newspaper 6.5.1 latest version with visual composer 4.7.4
thanks
This is common issue if you installed the “demo content” then later went back and deleted it after Google had indexed all those pages. Might not be your issue, but that happens quite a bit 🙂
I don’t appear to have an option to make anything a Mega Menu or to view the current status of menu pages/posts/categories as Mega menus ( hope that makes sense )
So basically I’m adding new items to the theme demo menu but I’m not getting the option to make them mega and when they are on the menu there is no white down arrow as in the demo menu.
Do I need to do anything to activate this option?
Many Thanks
Hello François,
The contact page comes with the default demo. You can copy the shortcode from that page to another one you create Just make sure you paste it in text mode not visual http://screencast.com/t/WJevsSWJCzo: http://pastebin.com/Uwp3Mh0C
For the contact form you will need the plugin because the theme has no forms implemented.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hi,
You can find Chris’s recommendations in this regard here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-chriss-custom-optimizations-for-functions-php-etc/#post-37493 so you can try like he recommends doing this.
You can also try and test the minified version we use on our demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/wp-content/themes/011/style.css?ver=6.5_d38 but make sure that you use latest theme version.
We use cloudflare’s mifnication on our demo without any issues. We still need to test this more rigorously and we will do that in the next few days so we can be positive in this regard but you could try it yourself and see how it goes. We will update this tread once we test this and have and accurate answer on this.
Thanks!
Hello,
There’s no contact page created by the the video demo I’ve intalled.
I’ve created a new page using the contact page Template from visual composer
but there’s no form added.
There’s a text saying this instead:
Install Contact Form 7 Plugin and replace this text block with your contact form.
I would prefer not to use another plugin if possible.
Also how do I copy contact page from default demo to video demo that I’ve alreay installed?
François
Hi,
Thanks Chris!
@shopunwritten We recommend Seo by Yoast plugin to control the og meta data, as the theme doesn’t control that. We use this plugin also on our demo.
Thanks!
Sorry for the delay, we don’t work on weekend.
1. Try to increase the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT at 64MB or higher, here it’s a guide regrading this
http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP Also make sure that you install the plugin according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ Do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the plugin before uploading the new one.
Regarding the demo error import, this also can happened because the server security module blocks the access to admin-ajax.php file. When this it’s requested many times it’s treated as threat so it’s banned. You can report false positives to your server administrator to remove it from the banned list.
Note that some host may restrict the access at content provided from external sources, so you can check in cpanel if there are any options regarding this or contact your host provider and let him know about this.
Let us know how it goes and if you still can’t manage to solve this issue address via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-access and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible.
Thanks!
Hi,
We did not use plugins to create our content. Every plugin we used comes with the theme.
The contact page can be found in the default demo: http://screencast.com/t/st8GoEhxkd1H
You can copy it to the video demo if you want.
Thank you!
Hello,
The camel image, as other images on the theme demo, are not included in the package. You will have other sample images as we can only sell WP themes, not images. If you want to add an image on a page like the travel demo, you can by adding an image to a row in visual composer. Follow this topic to see how it can be done: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/adding-top-area-like-travel-example/
Thank you!
