Since the last update, there’s a new column in the admin dashboard for posts showing total view counts. Is it possible to hide this, for everyone, by default ? Example: https://i.stack.imgur.com/BLXVW.png
Hi,
It seems you have reviews for the posts. If posts have reviews this will be displayed on the block modules replacing the other meta data. The reviews are present on your page but they are hidden

If you would like to remove the reviews form the blocks and display the date instead, you will have to make a modification in the file mentioned in this topic by Bogdan

Thanks
Hi there!
There are few things about the review box that I would like to see in future updates of Newspaper 7.
Right now there’s no Pro and Cons box. I’m using a 2×2 table in order to have pro and cons in my reviews, but I would love to have that box under the review summary.
Also It would be great to have the ability to hide the “progress bar” above the review/summary box and the “REVIEW OVERVIEW” writing shown just before the review box, I find that to be unnecessary since the mark is already shown beside the summary box.
Thanks for considering my suggestions!
Hello gasparlanca,
1)Unfortunately, the theme does do not have any such an option for this. You should only disable all post views for the entire website. Also, if you want to hide a post viewpoint for a specific post, you should use a bit of CSS code to do that using the post ID.
2)There seems to be an issue with the access token in the current version of the social counter.
Please download this version: http://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/td-social-counter.zip
And very important: clear all your caching including the browser cache. Example for chrome: https://www.screencast.com/t/f9Q66lPx1fY
Now the access token should work as before.
Thanks for the message!
Good afternoon,
I bought the Newspaper template for my website http://www.raquetc.com and there are two things I’d like to change/improve:
1) is it possible to hide the post views when a user visits the site? Or to only made them available for the website admins/editors…?
2) the social networks plug-in isn’t being able to create a Facebook Access Token. I Googled a bit but didn’t find any solution…
Thank you very much,
Gaspar
Hi,
You could try to hide them with css using this code, just enter it in Theme panel->Custom Css and it should remove the reviews from all the blocks in the homepage if that is what you want and you do not have access to the theme files
.home .entry-review-stars {
display: none;
}
Thanks
Hi,
Thank you Edward, indeed that will work but it would apply to all the single post pages too so if you would want to hide it only on the homepage post you can use this custom css code, enter it in Theme panel->Custom Css
.homepage-post .td-post-template-8 .td-post-title .td-post-views {
display: none;
}
Thanks
Hello,
I have a site with multiple authors and contributors. I don’t want certain user-levels to be able to change the post template or sidebars etc of the posts, so I have hidden the whole “Post settings” area, by making #td_post_theme_settings_metabox invisible to them.
However, I would still like to let them do reviews, so I am looking for a way to selectively hide the General Settings tab, but show the Review tab.
Would that be somehow possible? Thanks!
PS. Actually ideally I would like to show them the “source” “via” and “subtitle” fields too inside the general tab (just hide template, sidebars), but if that’s more difficult, it is OK to hide them.
Hello crazydiver,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have any such an option that allows you to display the post views counts only for certain posts, sorry! If you want to do this, you should use a bit of CSS code. You can use the following method: ->hide the post view count for entire website and then, using the post ID, you should show it on frontend, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/s1C9H39Epteg
The code is ->
.td-post-views{
display:none;
}
.postid-185 .td-post-views{
display:block!important
}
Thanks for your understanding!
Thanks for your reply.
Regarding Q 2 of change of pattern of reviews, I know that there are three system. I just want to change colour, etc. E.g., In star, it is showing black colour star, I just want to change the colour from black to golden.
Further, If I have only one criteria for review then also it is showing that criteria review start + summary stars (which I mean an average) but if there are only one criteria then showing the same twice is not worthful.
Regarding Q 4 relating to youtube, etc subscriber, I have bought the theme only 2 days ago, so I understand that the plugin is upto date. Though youtube subscriber shows 0 value though by clicking if I visit to youtube page it shows 33 subscriber.
Regarding Q 5 relating to menu in mobile, where to set colour combination (or your combination) for the background, my queries is that menu is showing on clicking burger sign on mobile but it looks like that please see screenshot at https://www.dropbox.com/s/8bnhu1mslnwd51e/MobileMenu.png?dl=0
Regarding Q 6 relating to mobile theme, I like the mobile theme and understands that it is different from desktop theme. I want to hide featured image for certain post categories on the mobile as hidden in the style – 5 of the desktop view. Is it possible.
Regarding Q 8 relating to mobile editor, as the same is not available for post, so can I presume that for posts (not pages) content created for desktop version (i.e., through visual composer, etc) will also show in mobile.
Q 9 (new) relating to hide image placeholder, is it possible to hide image placeholder space (see http://viewpublish.com/category/news/) for few post categories in article display view (at archive page of that category) as I dont have featured image for that post category. Similarly hide image placeholder in front page for that too.
Thanks for wonderful theme. I have following problems:
a. When I am trying to applying Category Top Post Style in a category, then there is no space between top Post and Articles. How to increase space between them. See (http://viewpublish.com/category/movie_reviews/) see https://www.dropbox.com/s/t8537pbqmdtlhfg/Space%20Error.png?dl=0
b. Is it possible to hide category pull down filter for particular category.
c. Does post templates, block and grid support custom post.
d. Is there anyway to change style of reviews
e. Is it possible to create custom templates / style / block / Module / Grid for post, etc.
f. Does it support featured images from dropbox.
g. Does modal image supports images inserted into the post from dropbox.
h. Is it possible to show custom html / PHP Code in after page title & share buttons but before main content in post template styles
i. Further, how to show list of custom post type posts along with categories, etc.
j. number of youtube subscriber details are showing 0 insted of actual number.
k. Does theme supports custom taxonomies apart from ‘Category’ and ‘Tags’
l. In mobile theme, Menu background is not working. Menu items are there but due to no background it is not visible. see screenshot https://www.dropbox.com/s/8bnhu1mslnwd51e/MobileMenu.png?dl=0
m. In desktop version, post template style-5 is not showing featured image in the post single page. But in mobile (mobile theme activated) it is showing featured image. Does all post template style, block and module are working only in desktop. Does mobile theme does not support them.
n. How could I add custom post type posts list in the mobile (mobile theme)
Hello njtechreviews,
I have checked your website and I saw that your first black header does not come from our theme. To hide it, you should use the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.
The code is ->
#menufication-top{
display:none;
}
.menufication-add-padding{
padding-top:0;
}
The result is here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/BOOJb29K
Also, inspecting your website, I have noticed that you are using some untested plugins which can interact with the theme core files and cause a lot of unknown issues. Please try to disable all of them and install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme packet and rule out any conflicting plugins.
Also, if the problem is still there, try to make a new clean install from scratch via FTP, use only the required plugins which come bundled with the theme packet, clear all your caches and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Well you do not have to use the child theme for custom css. Add the code in the theme panel-> custom css box
The code you added is not to hide the post views, but to hide the post title.
Please use this code to hide the post views:
.single .td-post-views{
display:none!important;
}
Thank you!
Hello,
1. The reviews do not have such an option but you will be able to hide the rest of the options with css to only get the overall score is this is what you want. Please provide a link to one of your review posts and I will provide the proper css to hide the rest of the fields except the overall score.
2. Unfortunately that is a very old version of our theme and we cannot provide it anymore That is newspaper version 4. We are at version 7 now, but we do not have an archive for older versions. Sorry. The 2 versions are not backwards compatible. The whole theme was written from the top down in newspaper 6 so that is basically the same as a totally different theme. The only theme version we are allowed to provide is the one on themeforest as the theme is provided exclusively by envato
Thank you!
Hi,
If you want to hide the post views from the front-end but show them in the back you will have to hide them with css on the front-end. Please use this code:
.td-post-views{
display:none;
}
Thank you!
Maybe I explained myself wrong.
Is it possible hide or disable the view column only in the wp-admin?
I don’t want to show our employees the numbers of views when they are inside wordpress (edit.php).
I hope you understand, if I could send you a screenshot, I could explain better.
Best regards, thanks
Massimo
Hi guys,
in the wp-admin of wordpress, when you go in post area (where are all the post), is it possible to hide the column of count the post views (named “views”) for some or all users?
I want the counting post views to be exposed in the site on-line web, but I don’t want our contributors and authors to see this column with the numbers of the visits.
How can I do?
Thanks a lot
Massimo
Hi
Yes it is possible to hide the views from the front-end using this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css:
.td-post-views{
display: none;
}
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
Sorry for a stupid question.
I can’t find option how to hide this black label-counter – screenshot – http://screencast.com/t/ljLzFmEjbZoM
There is no hint on mouse hover, so I can’t understand what’s this: comments, replies, views?
Hi folks
I disabled the comment count setting NM 3.1 under “post panel” setting, but still seeing the comment bubble counter on indexes (e.g., using “M10” for “book reviews”).
Other than editing the templates is there toggle for that.
One might presume if that is off on the actual posts it would be off on the indexes.
So, settings are:
* comments on as we enable that per story
* comment count off on posts
* no option for on/off on templates (e.g., all on or all off for comment bubble/counter)
Don’t want to just ‘hide’ that as it still does query, so likely editing “M10” template best way?
Thanks 🙂
Hi Catalin,
I found how comment the snippet to put one space for “Visits”, below is the code:
function get_comments() {
$buffy = '';
if (td_util::get_option('tds_p_show_comments') != 'hide') {
$buffy .= '<div class="td-post-comments">';
$buffy .= 'post->ID) . '"><i class="td-icon-comments"></i>';
$buffy .= get_comments_number($this->post->ID) . " " . "Comments";
$buffy .= '';
$buffy .= '</div>';
}
return $buffy;
}
function get_views() {
$buffy = '';
if (td_util::get_option('tds_p_show_views') != 'hide') {
$buffy .= '<div class="td-post-views">';
$buffy .= '<i class="td-icon-views"></i>';
// WP-Post Views Counter
if (function_exists('the_views')) {
$post_views = the_views(false);
$buffy .= $post_views;
}
// Default Theme Views Counter
else {
$buffy .= '<span class="td-nr-views-' . $this->post->ID . '">' . td_page_views::get_page_views($this->post->ID) . " " . "Visits" .'</span>';
}
$buffy .= '</div>';
}
return $buffy;
}
but for some reason:
- for comments works ok
- for visits, after the page is loaded the string “Visits” disappears
Currently I’m using your solution only for the Comments.
P.D.: I don’t understand why is happening, in my local server works like a charm (both changes) but on real environment, nope. I have paid attention to cache and I don’t use third plugins.
Thank you.
Got it
static function update_page_views($postID) {
if (td_util::get_option('tds_p_show_views') == 'hide') {
return;
}
if I don’t want to show exact page views count, but I want to keep page views count and calculate 7 days views count, I have to comment this if statement, right?
Hello,
I would like to know how can I hide the date from block thumb previews here – http://imgur.com/rHiLYIa but still have it within the post. I tried to hide the date from Theme Panel> Post Settings but that removed it completely.
Thanks!
Hi Catalin,
Thanks for taking the time to respond. I’ve managed to find a work around using CSS.
I ended up removing the ‘thead’ and ‘th’ table.
I switched this:
<thead>
<th>Brand</th>
<th>Model No.</th>
<th>Capacity</th>
<th>USB ports</th>
<th>Max output</th>
<th>Price*</th>
<th>Buy Online</th>
</thead>
To this:
<tr class="hide-mobile hbold">
<td>Brand</td>
<td>Model No.</td>
<td>Capacity</td>
<td>USB ports</td>
<td>Max Output</td>
<td>Latest Price*</td>
<td>Buy Online</td>
</tr>
Then I created a CSS class for the ‘tr’ (hide-mobile) that hides the top header row when the table collapses on mobile views.
Think it works pretty well when you reduce the page width, you can see it working here – http://gadgetviper.com/best-power-bank-20000mah-review/
The important thing is that I can toggle between visual view and html when editing the post in WordPress without it breaking the tables 🙂
I noticed that you are strongly recommending Yoast.
While it gets really bad (and worsening) reviews from users, current average being 4.0 out of 5.0, but the latest ones is probably more like 2.5 out of 5.0. So why still such love and strong push both in your description, recommendation as tested and even in your support tickets?? Why wouldn’t you look into alternatives as well, because I almost trusted and went with your suggestion but still decided to go over reviews.
here are some examples:
“Bloated and way to many notifications. Has been my goto plugin for years but looking hard for alternatives. ”
With every recent update it just pushes itself more to the center and gets irritating to a point where the irritation trumps the usefulness. Used to be that you could choose to set and forget most options, now impossible as new and mostly unwanted features insinuate themselves everywhere.
Very sadly looking for alternatives at this point.
This used to be the best SEO plugin, hands down.
Now, even with the SO Hide SEO Bloat plugin installed (which makes her look a bit more attractive) she’s just not what she used to be.
I’ve decided to use Genesis’ built-in SEO options from now on. Simply can’t stand how this plugin went from perfect to a dud.
This latest update makes the plugin very confusing for newbies. I can no longer recommend it for that reason. I wish Yoast would just leave the plugin be. It doesn’t need all this change, nor the extra features.
Help! I installed 3.3 and my wordpress installation has become WORDPRESS BY YOAST!
so clean up wp seo plugin to the rescue..
OK I’ve finally snapped and gone back to All In One SEO.
So many pointless updates, all the pop-ups and notification spam.
These guys at Yoast has lost themselves along the road in recent months. Adding new stuff on something that was already complete, with “EXTRA” tools that not everybody want ( might be cool to some). But don’t you read the negative feedback you keep receiving since November 2015?
Why don’t you make a new plugin instead as integration?
I used to love this plugin, now it is on my list of “get rid of it asap”
