- NewsmagHow to update the theme
If you cannot login, then via ftp do this:
a) rename /wp-content/plugins — to xplugins
b) delete all theme folders except for the stock twenty-sixteen
c) then login
d) then go to appearance > themes, and change theme to twenty-sixteen
e) rename plugins folder back
f) only activate necessary plugins
g) install theme and plugins fresh, via FTP
once theme working
a) resave permalinks
b) use wp-optimize plugin to optimize your WP dbase
*reminder:
you should be making periodic mysql dbase backups before doing any theme install, major WP or plugin update, etc. — note the WP export option does not provide a full restore ability, like the dbase export does (trust me!).

its always better to update theme via ftp rather than from wp-admin
Hi Bogdan,
thanks, but if the envato plugin isn`t working fine, you can’t recommend it any more in your Newspaper-Documentation like https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/.
When I install the update via FTP, will I be able to login again via “wp-admin”? Because now a login is not possible..
Thanks,
Unfortunately we are not the plugin creators so we cannot say for sure how it works or how it doesn’t. We added it to our list as it’s an envato solution but as Chris says, FTP is the best method to update: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Thank you!
Hi, thanks, okay, I can install the new theme via ftp, but i`m not any more able to login in the wp-admin…so I can not do this step: “Activate the newly installed theme by going to Appearance > Themes and clicking the Activate button”. What I can do?
Best Regards
Mike
Update via ftp and dont use that crappy plugin to update… seriously it fails on so many servers it should be outlawed!
I tried a re-install with FTP and disabling plugins – still not showing. Using a child theme here – may that has something to do with it?
If nothing else works, I will try deleteing the theme, and re-installing it (as oppose to just re-instaling over it).
Hello svm7860,
Please keep in mind that this type of issue happens due to your unproperly theme installing. Please try to make a new clean install from scratch, disable all the plugins, install the theme only via FTP because this is the surest method in this regard and install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme packet and rule out any conflicting plugins. Clear all your caches nd check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I’m not sure why this happens but it might be aq faulty install of the theme or a plugin conflict. The option is available and working fine on our end: http://screencast.com/t/ZLQpMaUdJd
Please try the above solutions by disabling plugins or re-installing the theme. Use FTP as it’s the safest method to update
Thank you!
The correct theme structure needed for the thumb is this one: http://screencast.com/t/o6ZJAw7jvtj
I’m not sure why your folder structure is altered but we suggest deleting the theme files and uploading them again using ftp: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
I’m not sure what happened on your end but it may be due to your customization so we suggest installing the theme again in it’s default state and we do not recommend altering the theme folder structure.
Thank you!
Same problem here like Tobbix. The option to decide which paragraph the ads show has dissapeared.
I re-installed the theme using FTP (overwrite files). Cleared / disabled cache. Still not there.
Help?

Hello SamiRiding,
It seems to have a problem with your frontend. Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme which is Newspaper 7.5 and also, the latest version of required plugins which come bundled with the theme packet and rule out any conflicting plugins. Make sure that you have updated the Visual Composer to the higher tested version with the theme ->4.12.1. Notice that the theme is fully compatible with the VC and until now we do not have any bad reports in this regard! If the problem is still there, please try making a new fresh install from scratch via FTP because this is the surest method in this regard.

На трех сайтах на вордпрессе в течение одной ночи с разбросом в несколько часов зарегистрировался пользователь mountain-dick@mail.ru и получил права администратора.
Причем:
1. На всех сайтах стояли разные версии вордпресс, на одном самая последняя, на двух — устаревшие на полгода.
2. Все сайты на одном хостинге.
3. FTP и phpmyadmin доступ ко всем сайтам был закрыт.
4. Регистрация пользователей в вордпрессе была запрещена.
5. Техподдержка хостинга не выявила попыток брутфорса и т.д.
6. На сайтах стоит примерно одинаковый набор плагинов, но раньше с ними никаких проблем не было.
Знающие люди подсказали, что дыра может быть в теме. Ваша тема была использована на всех трех сайтах. Можете прокомментировать эту ситуацию?
Login via FTP and disable all plugins by changing plugins directory to xplugins;
delete all themes except the default ones.
This will allow you to login.
Once logged in, go to appearance, themes and change to “twenty-sixteen.”
Rename xplugins back to plugins; Then turn back on only those known plugins which are good.
Then properly install the NP theme, plugins, and then activate again.
Theme does not control account login in any way for the admin user.

I do not know what happened, but my site was down. I updated the Newspaper theme by FTP and now only one blank page appears asking for ‘password’
I need urgent help.
