Search Results for 'ftp'

Hi there,

First of all, please accept my apologies all of these.

Please allow me to ask a few things about customization of the new Newspaper version 7.0.

1. Since I am doing some customization on my site and based on what I had read on the documentation and on your rules that any update of the Theme we should try again to re-implement the code for our customization, so I decided instead of doing that again and again is to add the Child Theme, that any update of the Theme still the customization of site will be there right? Please advise if this the best option? Hope it will.

2. (If Serial 1 is not the best option, leave this.) Please advise if this is correct to Add a Child Theme via FTP I will just add the Folder “Newspaper-child” located in /code folder? base on this Tutorial Link to add it under “wp-content/themes” right? by just dragging it via FTP? same on this Image Link.

3. Author Box Card replace it with USERPRO shortcode.
Filename:
/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/loop-single-12.php – this is my style number

ShortCode to add:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>

Original String Structure:

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_social_sharing_bottom();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_author_box();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>


Modified String Structure: Please advise if this is correct syntax code?

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_social_sharing_bottom();?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>


3.a. If I am using a Child Theme I just copy the Filename then create a directory structure path in the child theme as in the theme and paste the Filename based on this Tutorial Link aight?

4. Sign In/Join Desktop view popup version using USERPRO shortcode
Filename: wp-content/themes/Newspaper/parts/header/top-menu.php

ShortCode to add:

<div class="td-login-wrap">
' . do_shortcode('[userpro template=login]') . '


Original String Structure:

//<span class="td-sp-ico-logout"></span>
echo '<ul class="top-header-menu td_ul_logout">
<li class="menu-item">' .
get_avatar($current_user->ID, 20) . 'ID) . '" class="td_user_logd_in">' . $current_user->display_name . '' .
'
<li class="menu-item">
<i class="td-icon-logout"></i>' . __td('Logout', TD_THEME_NAME) . '

echo '<ul class="top-header-menu td_ul_login"><li class="menu-item">' . __td('Sign in / Join', TD_THEME_NAME) . '<span class="td-sp-ico-login td_sp_login_ico_style"></span>';
}
}//end login window

<?php echo $td_mod_single->related_posts();?>

<?php
} else {
//no posts
echo td_page_generator::no_posts();
}


6.a. Same on Serial 3.a. question.

7. If there is a new update of the Theme like for example: header.php as we added a Custom Code on version 6.x.x has 92 Lines + 2 Lines on our Custom Code both on Main Theme and Child Theme then a new update came version 7.0 header.php has 98 Lines, since our Child Theme had originally 92 Lines, are we going to update also our Child Theme structure based on the latest one from 92 Lines to 98 Lines then + 2 Lines on our Custom code?

8. Mobile Theme Plugin – if I install this plugin would the Child Theme modification will reflect to this? I mean I made changes in Serial 3, 5 and 6 will it reflect also? Please advise.

8.a. Whats the difference between Theme Panel background color for mobile vs Mobile Theme Plugin Settings background color? Which one should I make the changes if this Plugin is installed?

8.b. Gradient color – may I ask the exact hex number of this color? Link Here

9. Am I allowed to create directory structure and add the following filename on the Child Theme incase all of the above are possible to my site.

>loop-single-12.php
>top-menu.php
>For Serial 5 filename
>header.php

I have sent my Login Credentials via mail incase you may need it with the same Subject here.

Hi there,

First of all, I manage to update the Theme from version 6.7.2 to version 7.0 without having a problem, if you have some customization through code, you will have to do a backup and then you should try to re-implement this in Newspaper 7 files. Here’s what I did:
1. Switch your site to “Maintenance Mode” using a plugin or if you don’t have its fine also.

2. I switch my Theme from “Newspaper” to “Twenty Fifteen” theme since its in “Maintenance Mode” so nobody sees it except me. 🙂

3. I deactivate all my plugins and if possible do not deactivate the following plugins “WP Super Cache”, “Cloudflare” and my “Maintenance Mode” plugin, please note that “WP Super Cache” plugin once deactivated and activated again the settings change back to its default and make sure you set it to the correct settings or follow this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/

4. Please don’t skip this to always backup the files and the database or ask your hosting company to guide you on how to do it, in case something goes wrong with the server you could use the backup to revert to the previous state as what the Documentation says follow this guide link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ – Please read it carefully and follow what the instruction says follow the guide until Serial “A. Update the theme via FTP” only, this is the best way possible to update the Theme recommended by the tagdiv team.

5. After the update please ensure that you have cleared all your caches and purge your CDN files if you are using the CDN, and then go into the Theme Panel and click on the Save Settings button.

6. Update the following plugins – Visual Composer, Slider Revolution, tagDiv Social Counter and tagDiv Speed Booster that comes with the latest file you just downloaded from Envato>Download>All Files & documentation inside that there is a Folder name Plugins, how to update these plugins? follow this link and read it carefully: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ and do the same way with the remaining plugins Slider Revolution, tagDiv Social Counter and tagDiv Speed Booster only.

7. Check your site if it’s working or not, if it is working then proceed to the next step, congrats you made it. 🙂

8. Then start activating again your plugins that you just deactivated earlier in Serial 3, much better one by one to activate your plugin then you will know what causing you a problem if you activate a plugin, first you activate the recommended ones then the rest of your plugins.

9. Since you haven’t found any problem at all and if you have some customization through code on the previous version, then you should try to re-implement this in Newspaper 7.

Try this common troubleshooting tool:
a. Clearing all your caches and purge your CDN files help a lil bit of our common problems.

b. Save again your Permalinks in case you have some extra Pages which comes or created by your Third Party Plugins and problems with some links are “Not Found”, go to Dashboard>Settings>Permalinks and mine is set to “Post name” then click “Save Changes”.

Lastly, if you have found any error or conflict or question about anything, please just do a search here in the forum or write a new topic and address your problem and I just share this atleast a lil help for the awesome tagdiv team. Great theme ever!!!

I love the new update Newspaper version 7 🙂

Enjoy!!!

I tried updating to version 6 a couple of weeks ago but went back to 4 as everything got jumbled up for example sidebar was below content and visual composer was messy (but the updater script did work to keep my sidebars).

I will try again with version 7 this week but can I check on this page forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2 you say to delete existing theme via ftp and make sure the following are deleted – but are these deleted if I already delete the existing theme folder or are they somewhere else as well?

page-homepage-bg.php
page-homepage-bg-loop.php
page-homepage-blank.php
page-homepage-loop.php
page-homepage-timeline.php

I am sure this has been on here before but I am having problems installing demo content. My site is http://www.rebel-student.com. I can install the settings but I would like to install the content and when I try that it is coming up with an ajax error.

Ajax error. Cannot connect to server, it may be due to a misconfiguration on the server.

I have a somewhat understanding on FTP and other coding skills so if I could just get some guidance if you guys know what the problem is I can fix it so I can get the site going.
