Great thanks for looking up.
Unfortunately, if I replace that line, the post is not showing at all anymore 🙂
No error, but also now output, just a header with a footer 🙂
But anyhow, if you fix it in the next update and this will be a question of one or two weeks, never mind, I can wait that long. If it should take longer, maybe you can give this workaround a short check to see if it works for you.
Hi
By default the theme can’t do that, but is possible with custom css (Theme Panel-> Custom Css) like in this example http://screencast.com/t/B4fBu9TIrro
For the Header Style: Default this code will work:
.td-header-header{
background-image: url('http://www.florian-radu.ro/images/headers/Header-graphic03.gif');
background-repeat: no-repeat;
background-size: cover;
}
Here is a link about how you can use the background image http://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-image.asp
Thanks!
Hi,
I have checked your site on mobile and Big Grid looks fine on mobile – http://screencast.com/t/KMbi8sQIg
1. I have checked you header add and found that you use Ad rotate so the option from Theme Panel > Ads to hide it on mobile will not work as you don’t use the adsense code directly there. You can hide it via custom css: http://screencast.com/t/rMVWKxY7ILe
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px){
.td-a-rec-id-header .g-single {
display: none !important;
}
}
2. The Big Grid cannot be displayed like on desktop because of size of the screen on mobiles, so the small thumbnails of Big Grid will slide on mobile, this is not an issue Big Grid was designed like that: http://screencast.com/t/tnEjKPJF – http://screencast.com/t/TahlBJNM
3. Theme cannot change yor logo color so you can upload a different logo for mobile or change the mobile menu color using this solution – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-change-mobile-header-color/#post-54699 We will add an option in Theme Panel to change color of the mobile menu in a future update.
4. Not sure what you mean, I have checked and you don’t have any Big Grid above footer, please clear cache.
Thanks!
I know, I can delete one of menu but the problem is the same, the space dont used well taking advantage of full menu header bar. Is any option for use all this space also in desktop? not only in tables?
Thanks.
Hi,
I have checked your site and you have to many menu items there. You can try to use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css and apply this only for tablets – http://screencast.com/t/8Eu3obo5
@media(min-width: 768px) and (max-width: 1018px) {
.sf-menu > li > a {
padding-right: 0px !important;
}
.sf-menu > .td-menu-item > a {
font-size: 20px !important;
}
.td-header-main-menu {
padding-right: 0px !important;
}
}
Thanks!

Hi team,
using newspaper 6 theme
I want to change certain things in my website http://www.careongo.com/riseup. Help me out.
1. I have used big grid 1 on the top of my homepage. I want to reduce greying effect of images in this grid. Images are appearing too dark because of greying effect.
2. Just below big grid 1, I have used news tickr on homepage. I want to shift it to the left. Basically, I want it to align with big grid to the left.
3. In header menu, i have a watch category. If I open video posts, there is lot of empty space after the video. how to reduce that?
4. Also on homepage, I want to reduce the padding between different blocks that i have used.
5. How to remove author names from blocks and big grids? As I want to remove for some posts.
Looking forward to a speedy response.
Thanks,
CareOnGo
I’ve decided to open this thread to help the devs to spot bugs and usability lacks since I love this theme, especially the new version. Here it comes:
1. Missing an option to set mobile header and icons
a. The only workaround is a manual CSS fix
2. Missing an option to style the extended footer (ABOUT US and FOLLOW US)
b. Actually is complicated to manually fix it since DIVs are wrappers and can’t put, for example, a different color on the background without making it uglier than it is. Only thing achievable is text-align:center for titles.
3. Social icons
c. They come in only one flavor and size. Too few to work with
4. Social icons on the extended footer
d. Have to change color and :hover manually but it’s a pain
5. Big slider (the one from v4 theme)
e. It is possible to achieve the same behavior on mobile view (images shown vertically and not horizontally with a bottom scroller) only if “posts to show” is set to 8 (or 12 or 16…). Should be advertised somewhere.
6. Sliders
f. We need an option to turn off the overlay gradient (images are too dark) and another to disable the ugly zoom in picture, please.
7. Translations
g. Are cool! But if you use two (or more) languages don’t mess with the TRANSLATIONS panel! Use Loco Translate plugin instead.
Others will come as soon as I’ll find them.
Keep up the good work!
Hello,
we’re using the new td_category_template_8.php style for our category headers as we like the layout/styling, but for some reason it’s showing all categories in this area if the current category doesn’t have any children.
Is it possible to override this file in our child theme or add something to our functions.php file to stop the theme showing the category list?
Thanks, James
Hi,
Please try this custom css for post style 8 (width and background) – http://screencast.com/t/Vvf1RelEPPB
.td-post-template-8 .td-post-title {
width: 100%;
}
.td-post-template-8 .td-post-header .entry-title {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5);
}
Thanks!
Hi,
I’m not sure if this is what you mean, but if you use a background color or image the site will automatically switch to boxed version, so you will have to remove background color if you want header in full width – http://screencast.com/t/xLnQQ1EEmzp5
If you want to change the theme width, unfortunately the theme was initially designed at that width with an fixed grid layout and changing it would not be easy as it needs changing the width value for all elements on pages and for this you would need custom work.
Thanks!

Hi,
I see that you use version 4 of Newspaper, please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/O92vBpma
.header-logo-wrap img {
max-height: 100px;
}
.header-logo-wrap {
margin-bottom: 20px;
}
Hope this helps!
After I updated Newsmag theme i have some errors, especially with the search bar in MENU. It’s not showing properly, either in desktop and mobile version.
Also, NEWS link is showing duplicate content.
What is wrong? I can’t figure out…
P.S. is there any plugin or something which will correct picture size to fit homepage module?
Regards
Hi
How can I make the background of the main header an image instead of a colour?
Hi Alin,
Here’s an update. Again, I’m using iPhone 6+ and default Safari browser to view this. It’s the same phone I used with Newspaper 4 and there was no issue at all.
I’ve changed to using the main theme now and I suspect the culprit is the Big Grid 3 that was causing it. So I changed back to Big Grid 2 and the result is this.

The problem now are:
1) Header ad are still showing despite disabling it through theme panel and I’ve also added the code below under theme custom css.
@media (max-width: 1024px){
.td-header-sp-ads{
display: none !important;
2) Big Grid 2 STILL doesn’t fit on the mobile, just like your demo site as well.
3) Header logo background is now black instead of white. Previous Newspaper 4 was white.
4) Big Grid 2 repeated at the very bottom of the page, right before the footer section.
Can you guys recheck the mobile site part? I really didn’t know how to solve all this.
Hi Team,
The top header menu with the login/register option isn’t showing up on the mobile and tab page version.
The desktop version top header menu is not full scale.
and
isn’t there a way where people can register with their facebook or twitter id. Please help me out.
Regards
Maddy
As he noted, not everything can be moved due to the imperfect programming of some plugins; so those “bad” plugins cannot be moved as they may break things.
CSS generally is loaded in the header – this is correct practice. JS is loaded in footer unless some plugins “require” it in header to even work.
That is the quandary that Radu describes which there is no simple solution for.
Upshot: the speed booster plugin can “help” move some things, but not all or stuff just won’t work — through no fault of the theme or the speed booster framework TagDiv have come up with.
Thanks for yours answers.
I use this code to put some lignt on the image :
.td-post-template-8 .td-post-header {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
But when the image is too white, the white title is not readable.
I think it will be easily correct with puting more gradient only on the bottom (under the title).
Second coment : the lenght of the title stops at the level of the begining of the right widget part.
In consequence praticaly all our title go on 2 lines.
How could I do to have the same marge on the right that we alreay have on the left?

Hi,
the code looks like it should work but I think it requieres the constants HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH and HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT to be defined.
Yes… a lot of the functionality is custom made, the system is designed to be easy to maintain because we will now maintain api compatibility for at leas a year… all that while adding new features and optimizing all the slow performing/ugly parts. We are also working hard to finish the theme api documentation, it should be complete in 1-2 weeks. https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-theme-api/
Hi,
In v 6.1 all the header will have the Accent theme color, like it was in old Newspaper theme. Also if you don’t want this you can overwrite it from here to black again: http://screencast.com/t/KhSeq60huLB like is on our demo now(black and not accent theme color)
Thanks!
Hi,
We use xampp installs for testing, we didn’t tested other tools so i cannot recommend you something else.
First backup the site files and database, in case something goes wrong you just use the backup to restore the site. Usually c-panel comes with an option for this, or you could do this manually – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
You can’t keep the old theme in the same folder, you either delete it an install the new one or move it to another location.
In v6.1 we fixed some of the issues which were reported on v6.0:
[ Version 6.1 ]
- improvement: added global colour for block headers in General theme colors section
- improvement: now you can change the fonts on Lists in post content from Theme panel
- improvement: added .screen-reader-text class for better usability
- improvement: visual composer updated to the latest version
- improvement: better documentation + first video tutorials
- fix: UI improvements, key images now have a specified height, this prevents repaints and it makes the page appear that it loads faster
- fix: unique articles work now as expected
- fix: better review import from version 4
- fix: speed booster 4.1 works better now + buddyPress fix
- fix: big grids on iOS where missing titles until touch
- fix: block 20 css fix + speed booster
- fix: content bottom and top content ads css fix for safari, firefox and IE
- fix: various css fixes
- fix: social counter instagram
- fix: main menu z-index
- fix: missing Ajax filter option for IOS slider
- fix: visual composer single image block alignment issues
- fix: space issue when turn off the top menu on header style 12
- fix: the ajax dropdown filter sometimes disappeared when the mouse was moved down to select ca category
- fix: ajax filter - was deselecting all the selected filters from the page on click
- fix: better alignment on reviews
We may consider releasing beta versions in the future, thanks for your suggestion.
Thank you!

Hi,
That area has a background – http://screencast.com/t/g2PsjADHlvT
You could play with the transparency – http://screencast.com/t/CpD5pQjpr
.td-post-template-8 .td-post-header {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
}
Or remove it:
.td-post-template-8 .td-post-header {
background-color: transparent;
}
It also comes with a gradient: – http://screencast.com/t/qIE9Mlo3rUQy
Use the following css to remove it:
.td-image-gradient-style8:after {
display: none;
}
Thank you!

I will re post my message from another thread here:
Hi,
I’m still searching for a good solution for that plugin. A lot of people install the plugin without knowing what it does and after that they add 100 plugins and some of the plugins are not written ok. For example some of the plugins do not respect the google pagespeed recommendations of punting javascript at the end of the page and they just try to use jQuery in the middle of the page. This slows the site down and it also enforces the requirement that jQuery has to be in the header instead of the footer how Google recommends.
For example even Revolution Slider is written that way, not only that but they don’t use recommended WordPress methods to load it’s style and js. One may say that loading resources that way is bad BUT even jetpack (that is a plugin made by the makers of wordpress) doesn’t use standard ways of loading resources – you can find the jetpack hack in the speed booster.
I know this is causing a lot of frustrations but we don’t have a good solution yet 😐 .
To always enable speed booster, delete this code: http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh
