Hello,
If I understood correctly, for that you want you can use the block Flex Block, filter it on “Category – Current Category” and you can exclude the category that you want using the sign “-id category” that you want to remove it => https://i.imgur.com/Mejd8gl.png
Hope this helps you!
Thank you!
Hi,
This is because those elements are from tagDiv Standard Pack plugin, what you can do is to enable the plugin and replace the big grid full with a different flex grid after that check again if there are other elements that display shortcodes.
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, you are right, maybe is not 100% but 90% are, to remove the standard pack you’ll need to use cloud templates and for pages you’ll need to replace the simple blocks and grids with flex blocks and flex grids. But before this you’ll need to have a full backup and is no need to set on a different theme during the theme update. When you update the theme via FTP/cPanel, you’ll need to copy and replace only the Newspaper theme (delete the old Newspaper theme and unzip the new one), after the theme is set, you need to go in WordPress > Newspaper > welcome section and update the theme from there. Also because you have an older version, you need to install the tagDiv Standard pack from Newspaper > plugins.
Thank you!
after reading a lot I found out it has to do with the cache… I deleted everything inside wordpress and nothing happened, so I kept reading and found out that there’s LiteSpeed Web Cache installed in the whole server, I asked the hosting company to help me out and they did, this is what was causing it:
“this issue was caused by the blocking of the rule by our Modsec apache module. We need to use this for security reasons. The module is configured to protect web applications from various attacks. ModSecurity supports a flexible rule engine to perform both simple and complex operations. I have fixed this issue for you. Please check it from your side and let me know if this occurs again.
Also, here you can find the article about the Modsec module:
https://www.namecheap.com/support/knowledgebase/article.aspx/9542/22/what-is-modsecurity-and-why-do-we-need-it/.”
My site – https://jazzjournal.co.uk/ – is barely loading. Loading and responsiveness of WP dashboard is also incredibly slow. The site has never been very fast, but this is now unusable.
I have a fairly standard installation, using standard post templates and for front page Flex Block 3 and one Big Grid Flex 2.
My host says the site is responding quickly, so no problem. Other sites are loading fast and normally, so my internet speed is good enough.
What is the problem with Newspaper?
Hello,
Some of the posts of my website have multiple categories.
For those ones, I use the “Primary category” setting to correctly display their main category.
But I was wondering if there is a way to display multiple categories in Posts Loop and Big Grid Flex modules ?
What I mean by that is, for each post in those loops/grids, instead of having a single sticker displaying their main category, we would have several stickers, one after the other, to display all categories of those posts.
Here’s an example; that’s the archive for my category “Société”.
We see in the big grid that some posts have a different category set up as Primary category (“Numérique” or “Économie / Finance”). I’d like those to have several stickers on them to display all their categories (for example, 1 sticker “Numérique” -as it is currently- and another sticker to display “Société” which is the secondary category).

Thanks.
Hello!
There is no category filter on the Posts Loop, only on Flex blocks: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hello,
Thank you for your reply.
FYI, I added these lines under the Appearance/Themes/Customise Newspaper theme/Additional CSS
a:focus {
border: 3px solid #4db2ec;
}
div.lg-link-item a:focus,
div.sm-link-item a:focus {
display: flex;
}
It seems to solve the problem. Can you please let me know if this will be overwritten when the theme updates?
Thanks.
Hello Vincenzo!
Let the offset field empty with no space, no value and see the results: https://www.screencast.com/t/peVbVmUDE
When you use the special filters you should place the shortcode/element (flex block) in the desired template in order to have effect: https://www.screencast.com/t/26s82FuUvqBw
For example: if you have a category template assigned on all the categories you have ( global template), then it is very useful to use a special filter category – current category in order to display the posts from the current category. In this mood you won’t have the same posts on each category page.
Thank you!
Hi, community!
I would like to have the title and excerpt of the Posts Loops in the right position.
Like this example (Flex Block 1): https://imgur.com/a/z5KcIAI
Is it possible?
Hi all,
I’ve installed the theme on WordPress set on Siteground provider, I’ve also imported a prebuilt demo.
I’ve added all the posts and am ready to open the site, but when I set Category filter on all categories and sort order on latest for flex block 1, it does not show the latest post but the post of 2 days ago or if I set a specific category it shows the no post block
Thanks for the prompt reply
Best
Vincenzo
Hello!
For example, add a flex block in a post template go to the filter tab of the element’s settings and from the dropdown category filter you can choose between: Single – More from author, Single – Related by category, Single – Related from tags. Those special filter will work as expected.
In your case you should use Single – Related by category and this will pick up more posts that has the category the same with the current post.
Thank you!
In the flex bloxks 3 and 4 there is not read more button!
I want to create a grid post template with read more button..
so in the normal block there is not read more button?? how can I resolve?
Hello @gidantrip!
You can enable this option on flex blocks like this: https://www.screencast.com/t/Qv6VnxrYjZn8 and from the Style tab you can customize it how you like.
Thank you!
Hello!
If you decide to use the multiple taxonomies filter, then the standard Category Filter is ignored: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Thank you for understanding!
Hello!
It was a misunderstanding, sorry. Please check the video where I showed you how you can get an excerpts there with some old modules: https://www.screencast.com/t/NKEQl9r7eD
Or you can remove the page from here: https://www.screencast.com/t/WG51cLGbpfvt and make it customizable with the tagdiv Composer. Then, you can use elements like Posts Loop, flex blocks, etc.
Thank you!
Hi Bettina,
Thanks wp_booster error has gone. one more thing in Flex Block 3 grid – in pagination when I select Next Prev ajax – none of the older news stories show, it displays the same news stories.
This error is happening on in Flex Block 3 grid. Please Help.
Thanks

Hello!
It does not matter because if the page is made with the TagDiv Composer or you have imported a cloud homepage template, then you can add a flex block there.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
Hello!
1. The flex blocks are working on every cloud/PRO template. Doesn’t matter if it’s a post or page. But, we have special shortcodes for pages and posts too.
2. The posts means articles. So, you can call them as you like.
3. In order to avoid misunderstandings, please provide more information about what you need to achieve, screenshots or a video.
A solution for sending a screenshot/video is this:
Download, capture, send: https://www.techsmith.com/jing-tool.html
After making the screenshot, you will have a link, paste it here.
We recommend to use cloud/PRO templates in order to have the possibility to edit them with the TagDiv Composer which contains a lot of functions and features, please check our tutorial here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Documentation here:
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloud-library-templates/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/design-post-pages-using-cloud-library-templates/ (blocks like flex blocks are working in this kind of posts)
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloud-library-category-templates/
Check also our video tutorials here: https://www.youtube.com/c/tagdivThemes/videos
You can customize the excerpts in the theme panel : on words/letters: https://www.screencast.com/t/EROolW6hTSk0
If you edit a post and add a text as excerpt manually (in the excerpt box), the theme will show that text unmodified and uncut: https://www.screencast.com/t/FuTeApMmXgH0
Thank you!
Sorry , but i am still struggling to understand.
I created a post template and after “Single post element” i added a flex box where i chose in the settings “Single – Related by category” like this https://www.screencast.com/t/dUlauAnj0s
Then i set post template of subcategory like this https://www.screencast.com/t/eDHHCRIa73t
The category template is as before,special filter–> Current category
Still the same,can you provide step by step with images?

Hope that is more understandable now!
Thank you!
Edit – OK, I’ve now added widgets to my side bar on my posts via the dashboard widgets section, and added a flex block, to display the latest posts. So I’m happy with this. It does not seem to observe the excerpt length setting, and then I see this seems to be the case everywhere – I alter the excerpt length from the default 25 to something else, but the length of the excerpt shown does not change. Possibly a bug?
OK, it does not seem to work.
I will work through the steps I have taken and you can see where I have gone wrong.
1. I am using the Category template of magazine pro.
2. In View mode, I click on a category tab on a post and it takes me to a page using the Category template. (It shows “Global Category template – Magazine PRO” at the top left).
3. I then click on the green “Edit with TagDiv Composer” button on the WordPress top right menu bar. The Welcome to TagDiv Composer side bar opens.
4. On the right side of the page I have a block I have titled “Latest articles”.
5. I want it to just show articles in the category selected. (This is just a test of the features I am trying to understand, since there is no point doing this here, because the post loop can show the articles latest first.)
6. I click on the “latest articles” block (Its a flex block 1)
7. I click on filter and select the special filter “Category – Current category”.
8 Save and view.
9. I click on a category tag and check the first article shown in “Latest articles”.
10. It shows a post that is not in the category. Fail.
I have misunderstood somewhere.
Grateful for all your help.
