Also you could use the WP Super Cache for your website, here is a guide to help you with the configuration – https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/ This tutorial is also useful and you should follow the steps mentioned to improve page loading speed – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Thanks

Hello,
Yes, this is the theme thumbnail system that will not show the full images but rather thumbnails of your image in order to load the page faster. Having full size images on your homepage will result in very slow loading times.
Here is a list of thumbs used by our theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
Thank you!
Hello,
We are sorry to hear about your traffic drops but the theme is not to blame for that. The menu loads fast if you optimize your site properly. As you can imagine, we tested the theme thoroughly and our large user base can confirm there are no traffic drops in normal conditions and on a stable host. Please increase your loading speed and you will see the traffic rise up again. Page speed is the number 1 traffic loss issue and lots of people tend to ignore it. Themes are not the same. Our theme has complex elements that require a bit of optimization for optimal results. Please use this guide https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ and make the proper optimization to your site so users do not get bored waiting for it to load and you do not loose traffic.
Your site loads pretty slow: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fdailytimes.ng%2F
Please consider google’s advice to increase the loading speed.
Also please increase your system status parameters like so: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Another issue you could be facing is opera mini. If a large number of your fans use opera mini then that alone is a big drop as our theme is not compatible with opera mini.
If for any reason you find our theme is not suitable for your project, you cna request a refund here: https://themeforest.net/refund_requests/new and we will provide your money back so you can choose a different theme.
Thank you!

Hello
As you know I have been posting here requesting for help based on our experience.
The most common feedback we got has always been…. disable all plugins except the ones supported etc…
Before we we changed to this theme, we know our stats and how we were performing, just switching to the theme we started noticing so much drop in traffic, engagement and a lot
We went above and beyond getting cdn, imagify optimizing, cloud flare, https and so many things we have never even done for years and still results were not exciting, we were either dropping or stagnant
our trafffover 80% mobile, and noticed the menu of newspaper theme was one of the biggest issues for us , especially that our audience are in a slow internet country…. the menu is so heavy, takes ages to pull up and people just get fed up…
We asked for help and they seem to say all is fine, disable plugins etc…
So we went ahead and did a big test, and overwrote the mobile site with something faster, menu loads immediately, page is loading fast and immediatly we started seeing a rise and positive results.
easiest way to see is our alexa. you will see how we started falling and now how we are rising all from this change
Now I love this theme, but I am posting this as a public advice for this team to get up their ass … excuse my language, wake up and smell the roses guys… it’s not all rosey with this theme.
The theme we were using was not fancy and a lot weaker, but it was stable,
These data is not something to ignore.
I am at the moment looking for a replacement , once we do I’ll post results of the desktop version
see stats: https://s16.postimg.org/r3809o8xx/thelik.jpg

Hello,
Unfortunately there is no setting to adjust it;s speed. It can be done but you will have to alter the theme js file for it. That file is changed on each update so you will hve to make the modification again after each update.
Please change this number to a bigger one for slower speed or a smaller number for faster speed: https://www.screencast.com/t/DWftPj5xa0F
Thank you!
Hello,
I have few concerns regarding theme thumbnail generation.
Allow me to describe situation.
Recently i was hired to take over client website (he had a lot of performance issues because of bad web hosting company etc.) and it turned out he is running your theme (really well coded theme and well coded support).
1. – when they installed your theme back then – of course they turned on absolutely all thumb available in Theme Panel > Block Settings > Thumbs on Modules/Blocks as can be seen here https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
Problem is….they don’t use all modules – therefore theme is generating unnecessary thumbnails. Now they have over 250 000 images in their uploads folder?!?!
My question is – if i disable some of these thumbnail settings in Theme Panel > Block Settings > Thumbs on Modules/Blocks and if i regenerate thumbnails with Regenerate Thumbnail plugin – are these unnecessary thumbnails vanish from my media library – pardon uploads folder? ATM my uploads folder is 10GB big. I am guessing when i get rid on unnecessary thumbnails i will have at least 35% reduction in size.
2. of course i will use built in wordpress image compression (they did not used that previously) – as described here https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ i will add
add_filter( ‘jpeg_quality’, create_function(”, ‘return 50;’ ) );
to functions.php
When i regenerate thumbnails – will newly generated thumbnails follow rule of compression from function.php?
Thanks in advance

It is not a file. It seems to have been a simple block added on the page with some animation. You probably do not have an exact same element. Page speed is a very personal thing and depends on how you have your site set up. Please use this guide to increase your loading speed: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Thank you!
Sorry but I’m not part of the development project for this. I know you would like a faster answer and implementation but I cannot provide any solution until the implementation is done and tested.
Please understand that there is no official solution yet and I cannot promise that it will even work properly.
You will have to wait until an official solution is presented.
Thank you!

Salut Incrosnatu,
Ti-am verificat site-ul pe Google Pagespeed si se pare ca nu prea este optimizat mai deloc, dupa cum se poate observa in rezultatele de la Google, aici -> https://www.screencast.com/t/xckds10A1rzL. Ai consultat ghid-ul nostru despre cum sa iti optimizezi website-ul? Daca vrei sa obti un scor mare in viteza site-ului tau, trebuie sa lucrezi putin la acest aspect deoarece este un lucru delicat ce necesita unele customizari. Din test reiese faptul ca imaginile tale nu sunt optimizate, trebuie sa elimini render-blocking JavaScript si CSS si multe altele care sunt foarte bine explicate in ghid-ul nostru de optimizare aici -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ Te rog sa citesti cu atentie toate etapele care sunt prezentate acolo si sa le si aplici pe site-ul tau daca vrei sa obti rezultate bune cu tema noastra. De asemenea, am observat ca folosesti un plugin de mimificare, dupa cum se poate vedea si aici -> https://www.screencast.com/t/jT88f0hMVL care este un plugin netestat cu tema si care s-ar putea sa nu functioneze corespunzator cu ea. Foloseste Speed Booster, pe care daca il vei activa, tema va folosi varianta mimificata de catre noi pentru JavaScript iar pentru CSS va trebui sa o mimifici tu manual cu un tool ce are aceeasta functionalitate.
Te rog sa observi ca aceste customizari de optimizare nu depind de tema si nu sunt acoperite de catre suportul nostru, imi pare rau! Trebuie sa le faci singur si sa incerci sa urmezi toti pasii pe care i-am prezentat in documnetatia noastra. Stiu ca aceste customizari nu sunt simple si necesita ceva studiu si munca in plus in aceasta privinta. Dupa cum se poate observa, acest tutorial este explusiv pentru utilizatorii avansati in acest domeniu. Daca crezi ca nu te descurci in aceasta privinta, va trebui sa angajezi un freelancer/developer care sa te ajute cu aceste customizari suplimentare!
Multumesc pentru intelegere!
Hi,
Please follow this guide and modify the mentioned parameters – https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ Also here is a guide to improve page speed – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ and configure the cache plugin – https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/ If you still have problems on a fresh theme install, installing only the theme’s required plugins and after using the recommendations above please provide a link to your website so we can take a look.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. As said I am not facing any problem with WP Super Cache and images & blog is working just fine with WP Super Cache, but the thing is WP Super Cache doesn’t have that many features as W3 Total Cache got.
Here is the actual problem is with the Asynchronous tag i.e., whenever I try to use the Async feature of W3 Total Cache or plugin to make all the javascript Asynchronous/ defer, the images stop showing up. If you can tell me any script which needs to be excluded then it would be really helpful. If this functionality cannot be attained then also please let me know. Also, as far as the testing is concerned then W3 Total Cache works just fine if I uncheck the Async Javascript option, but then again it becomes a bit useless to use it.
Also, let me know if there is any possible way to show the News Ticker on all the pages of the site or on all articles page. Currently it can be only shown on the homepage but it would look really great on the articles pages. If there is any possible to do the same then please let me know.
Blog URL – http://thatsbreaking.com
I am trying to add Async Javascript to make my blog load faster and to increase the Google Pagespeed Insights.
Thanks and have a nice day!
Hi,
This could be happening when the complex visual composer elements present on your page, make multiple ajax requests under heavy visitor traffic. You should try to reduce the number of requests, like block pagination, ajax filter etc. from each of the block settings – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/ Also make sure you have updated Visual composer – along with the theme update. Alternatively this can be caused by a plugin, so you could deactivate all of them if possible, except visual composer and check the results. Here are some guides to help you configure the WP Super Cache plugin – https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/ and optimize site speed – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Lastly please make sure the server meets the theme’s requirements – https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ Hope this helps and let us know how it goes.
Thanks
Hello T2N,
Yes, it is true. The Mobile Theme is faster than the normal theme for mobile. This was a new concept which was implemented in our theme and as you see, this is an optional plugin. Please notice that this theme concept intend to display a Big Grid feature at the top of homepage which shows the posts which are included in Featured category, then will show a text which you added in Mobile Editor in Visual Composer from backend and at the very bottom of the page you will bring the Latest Articles module. Please keep in mind that the Mobile Theme do not recognize the Visual Composer shortcode and that’s why you did not get the page content created with Visual Composer for mobile theme. So, for more information about our mobile theme, please check the documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ If you are unhappy with this layout, and if you want to have the similar structure with our demo mobile, you will simply turn off the mobile plugin and the theme will be automatically switched to the general responsive mobile mode.
Thanks for your understanding!
Buna ziua,
Pentru a obtine un scor de page speed mai bun, puteti folosi acest tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ , dar nu e bine sa urmariti aceste teste ad literam deoarece ele pot fi eronate de multe ori. Am vazut site-uri care incarcau foate repede dar aveau un scor de 60% dar si invers, site-uri care incarcau in peste 10 secunde dar la test de page speed aveau peste 85%.
Multumesc.
