Hello!
Please edit the homepage with the TagDiv Composer, access Website Manager and check if the header and footer are there and it is not selected “No footer”. Check in the Dashboard -> Cloud Templates and see if you have the footer template. If not, then please install a footer template from the Cloud Library or build it from scratch by uploading a blank template.
For the category page, you can add a flex block with filter Category: Current category -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ The posts from that category will display.
Let the offset field empty with no space, no value and see the results: https://www.screencast.com/t/peVbVmUDE. For more information about offset feature, please check this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/.
Check this topic to see the difference: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/location-of-specific-blocks-to-edit/
We have 3 options of mobile versions that you can use:
1. Responsive version: A responsive version of your website is looking similar like on desktop, edit the page with TagDiv Composer, click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB ; there you can see your mobile version and you can edit the elements there or adjust them to look better.
2. Mobile pages: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/
3. Mobile theme plugin: The Mobile Theme is a performance optimized theme included in the Newspaper main theme and it loads only for mobile devices. It comes with its own templates/design for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. For more details, please take a look here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/
A full explanation you can find here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
You can choose to use which one is more affordable and useful for you.
Note: If you want to use version 1 or 2, then you need to deactivate the Mobile theme plugin and see the results.
From what I can see, you use the Mobile theme plugin and there are only some settings in the theme panel -> Mobile theme for customization.
Some texts can be translated from Newspaper -> Theme panel -> Translations -> Translations: https://prnt.sc/zSmXIgSMCyCj
That logo you’ve set up in the theme panel, you can change it and delete it from there.
Social media icons can be disabled/enabled by filling the fields Newspaper -> Theme panel -> Social Networks with the unique URL.
You can delete the join / SIGNUP from here: https://prnt.sc/O96Ni2YaFjJ1
Unfortunately, you can not add other elements there.
Thank you!
I am super confused about how to properly use a mobile home page. I created a page per your blog post “Newspaper 10.3.7 Update Brings Customizable and Fast Mobile Pages” but every time I look on my phone I get the generic mobile theme or the current homepage with the Romania news logo. Can you point me in a direction to get my custom mobile page viewing?
Thanks

Hello Ian!
I can see that you have the same menu in the mobile too. That menu from mobile you can change it while you edit the homepage with the TagDiv Composer, click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB, on the menu, select a menu from the dropdown list and the new menu will display.
Thank you!
All pages set as homepage have this problem. I also set a blank page for the homepage, this problem occurred again.
If there is no solution for this, I will send you an e-mail.
Good Evening.
I recently bought the newspaper theme and i have to create a website that is fully compatible with amp.
I’d like to know if there is a way to costumize the homepage template also if i don’t use the tag div editor and if it is possibile to use shortcode in the editor.
Thanks
Hello!
Ok, after creating the menu there, you need to edit your homepage with the TagDiv Composer. There you should add the mobile menu: https://prnt.sc/C9fLM9rklQmC and choose the menu you need to display there.
Thank you!
hi! i would like to ask where can i edit on the pages aside the homepage?
i can see the green edit button in the homepage but i can’t see the edit button once i’m on the other pages.
thank you
Hi, I do not see an option to customize my AMP settings when mobile theme is activated (my intention is to exclude pages from amp (i.e. homepage especially)) . I would like to have all blog posts to be in amp version but the home page should be the one that gets loaded on desktop browser. How can configure the settings to achieve this?
Hi Bettina,
Thanks for clearing that out.
I have another question…
We are displaying Covid Stats on our site but because we use regional stats, unfortunately we can’t make use of the API you have developed :(. Those stats are manually updated every day and we have to do it in 4 different templates (Homepage desktop, Homepage Mobile, Covid page Dektop and Covid Page Mobile)
Can you help us find a way to edit those numbers in a general section and see them applied everywhere? We would like to keep the layout, that’s the tricky part…

Hello,
whenever I add a featured video on a post, it shows correctly the video inside the post https://i.imgur.com/JztbWxB.png, but for example on the homepage I cannot see the video thumb but just a placeholder https://i.imgur.com/OVov7qW.png
Can you please help me?
Thank you

Hello!
All you need to do is to access the homepage, edit it with the TagDiv Composer and delete the element called Modal pop-up from there.
There is actually a recycle bin basket for every element https://www.screencast.com/t/wFYdqgpo6pT or drag-drop the entire row: https://www.screencast.com/t/pxuOzYIIpcG
Thank you!
Hello!
Please edit the homepage with the TagDiv Composer, click on the “Sign in” and delete the element from there.
Thank you!
Thanks Calin for your quick response
Everything works well.
Everything is fine at the back. The preview is completely correct. But…
When I log in via the internet on another PC, a completely different homepage is shown. Both the menu bar and the blocks and the site bar are different.
If I then click on a category, that category is displayed correctly. Then everything displays correctly until I click Welcome = homepage. Then the whole page changes.
Try it.
What is the solution? I hope you can help me.
New posts are not shown on the home page. Not in block 12 and in the Big Grid. The articles can be seen elsewhere on the site. http://www.oost-online.nl
Error at zones: 6(models) : 5(dom). The model does not match the content Current state has involved an issue. You could try an UNDO operation (CTRL+Z / CTRL+SHIFT+Z)
Hi,
I’m working on a wp website using the following versions:
Wordpress -> 5.9.3
Newspaper -> 11.4.3
WPML Multilingual CMS -> 4.5.4
When I try to duplicate a page (Homepage) generated by one of your prebuilt websites (Newsweek PRO), I’m getting the following error:
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught InvalidArgumentException: element_id and type do not match for element_id:865 the database contains post_page while this function was called with post_tdb_templates in /wordpress/wp-content/plugins/sitepress-multilingual-cms/classes/core-abstract-classes/class-wpml-set-language.php:34

As you said in Newspaper’s plugin page, the WPML plugin is fully supported, so maybe this error is something you might fix.
Thanks
Hello!
Try to revert a revision for your homepage like in this example: https://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/complete-guide-to-wordpress-post-revisions/ -> https://i.imgur.com/jbmCnzm.png
Please provide your website link, so I can check the issue.
Thank you!
Hello!
You can access the homepage and edit it with the TagDiv Composer(scroll till down for the footer). Click the row from footer and check in the CSS tab, you can see the background there and you can change it.
Thank you!
I’m looking at the theme panel and attempting to make sense of the ad system. I have response ads setup with adsense and I’ve pasted the code within the header ads section. When I paste this it does nothing on the page. So I pasted the same within custom ad 1 and still nothing comes up.
When I goto the homepage I see its using AD BOX so I select the appropriate area, and still nothing. What am I missing to make this work?
First of all, using a translator, the words can be weird.
My homepage is in the form of a middle and right sidebar.
I want to add TOC on the left, but I’m not sure.
Also, I don’t know how to add sidebar widgets because there are only Newspaper and footer1,2,3 in the widget window.
Dear TagDiv,
I have two questions to seek your help:
1) Can I edit the links of the “menu login”( https://www.gowiselife.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/Screen-Shot-2022-04-24-at-5.06.59-PM.png ) , the icon and login settings on the upright corner?
The reason for editing the links is that I found the “menu login” direct all clicks to the pages belong to Metropolitan PRO’s Login/Register – metropolitan_pro pages, etc. What I need is to direct all member related pages to Ultimate Member’s user pages. But I can’t find a way to edit those links.
I could remove this “menu login”, but I do like the design of this login setting, it is one the reason I choose Metropolitan PRO theme. I really do not want to replace it by another menu there.
2)Can we edit the mobile menu in Metropolitan PRO?
The mobile menu page is the page appears when users touch the menu icon on the homepage in a mobile phone, the page in my site looks like this: https://www.gowiselife.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/04/IMG_7047.jpg
So far, I can only change the background image and turn on/off the “Sign in / Join”. I hope I can edit the links for those two words(for user logins) , and to redirect them to UM users pages.
Could you help me out?
Thanks!
Hello, I would like to use one of the “Big Grid” shortcodes to add posts to my homepage. This is easy but I can’t seem to figure out how to add pages to these shortcodes. Anyone know how I can add pages, not just posts to the Big Grid shortcodes? Thanks in advance.
