Hi. I want to change the mobile menu colors (both background/gradient and text/icon color) so that I have a blue text/icons on a white background (see link below). I installed the Mobile Theme plugin and was able to do this. However, because the Mobile Theme does not allow me to customize the homepage, I must delete the Mobile Theme plugin (my website is based on a customized homepage so I cannot use the Mobile Theme).
So, my question: How do I change the mobile menu CSS colors?
This is the old (default) version which I do NOT want: https://www.screencast.com/t/An5zPt7TZY
This is the version that I DO want (but could only make this work using the Mobile Theme): https://www.screencast.com/t/lSVTOcfaNAEx
It looks like I can change the background/gradient in this CSS code by changing the two default colors to white #ffffff. Is this correct?
.td-menu-background:before {
content: ”;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
opacity: 0.98;
background: #333145;
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #333145 0%, #b8333e 100%);
background: -webkit-gradient(left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%, #333145), color-stop(100%, #b8333e));
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #333145 0%, #b8333e 100%);
background: -o-linear-gradient(top, #333145 0%, #b8333e 100%);
background: -ms-linear-gradient(top, #333145 0%, #b8333e 100%);
background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #333145 0%, #b8333e 100%);
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient(startColorstr=’#333145′, endColorstr=’#b8333e’, GradientType=0);
}
Where do I find the code/CSS to change the text/icon colors from the default white to my blue color?
Many thanks. I am enjoying using your theme so far.
Hi,
STILL SO MANY PROBLEMS!!!
I re installed the theme via cPanel. I checked everything outlined in the screencast and everything is on so it should have been working. I even tested it by turning the author, date and comments off for blocks. It worked as all the Blocks on my homepage no longer had an author, date or comments. I turned it back on and the rest of the blocks author, date and comments display again except Block 16. I did everything you said still doesn’t make it work.
I also realized another issue. I created custom widgets through visual composer. I went to Appearances/Widget and put tagdivs in my widgets. They worked. But after awhile they disAppear in the widgets area and the widgets are empty and the tagdivs disappear. I tried to refresh the widgets page on the dashboard and it still doesn’t appear its like it was removed on its own. I tried to go the actual page of the website with the widget and everything that was in the widget still appeared which I thought was strange.
Overall I’m very confused and honestly quite disappointed so far with this theme. This is supposed to be one of the most popular themes online and purchased it so I can get something that tried and tested so I wouldn’t have to go through this type of stuff. Please try to be thorough when responding to my problems cause its frustrating going back and forth. Thanks.

Hello,
My search results after the second page result “page/2/?s=xxx” redirect to the homepage.
http://www.portal-energia.com/?s=martifer – Works fine
http://www.portal-energia.com/page/2/?s=martifer – Redirect to home page
http://www.portal-energia.com/page/3/?s=martifer – Redirect to home page
I have disabled all the plugins and the issue stays with the same behaviour.
Can you give me an suggestion?
Hi,
I’ve read the documentation and watched the videos over the past few days. I don’t expect it to look like my last Theme. I’ve switched because I liked the Newspaper Demo. However, my images aren’t rendering correctly and the blocks/grids/modules aren’t working right either. Please see my homepage for examples. I need help asap because this site is live.
Hi. First thank you for your time. I have an issue where the images on my site do not appear on my homepage, however they do appear when I either log in or view a post. I have tried clearing all caches and have also altered some settings in Jetpack but just can’t seem to figure out what’s going on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello,
i noticed one problem with the page http://www.extremeaddict.ro using the HTTPS certificate.
Only on the homepage, where i have the Video playlist added i receive the following message “your connection to this site is not private, but someone on the network might be able to change the look of the page.”
I noticed that this message is from the youtube images used in the Video playlist block. The link are similar with this one: http://img.youtube.com/vi/eS8uanVc6k8/default.jpg
How can i solve this problem and remove the ugly message about the site not being secure?
The images are available on same link but with https://
I have the latest versions of theme v 7.5 and WordPress 4.7
Thank you!


1. To make you better understand, how u r getting these 2 templates, check wide header and footer.
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_local_news/
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_what/
2. Yes, to have a border line below logo and ad.
3. My mistake that should be search page not ‘404’, have a look at this.
4. Is it possible to design a homepage without ‘post loop’ section, seems the default template includes ‘latest articles’ with numeric pagination only. How to get a homepage like this…
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/homepage-infinite-scroll/
5. I think ‘search page’ template is designed with blocks only, why can’t we have a different pagination.
6. Using style 9, 3 widgets. Any generalized css code available for aligning footer widgets, to center align instead of left.
7. Regarding this, i could understand the concept, but if i mention 5 and by chance if a post has only 4 , then where goes the ad. Since this is a global setting, would be a mess for publishers. Normally ad plugins provide an option for this, to show the ad on last para if the specified para not exists. I am not reporting this as a bug, but a feature to be implemented. After getting impressed with the ad settings, i deleted by ad plugin and had to install it again.
Hi,
1. Open your homepage in the Edit Page section like this – http://prntscr.com/djak7x
2. Scroll down to the Visual Composer editor and select the row containing the Big grid block – http://prntscr.com/djam0y
3. In Row Settings -> General -> Row Stretch, select Stretch row. Then, just bellow check the Full height row box – http://prntscr.com/djan7m
4. Go to Design Options, next to the General tab and choose the color you want for your background – http://prntscr.com/djao7x
The result is like this – http://prntscr.com/djapkh
Be sure to save your settings.
Thanks
Hi guys,
How do I change the background color on the homepage behind the “Big grid block” like in the Video news demo? I don’t want to install the demo content or settings.
Thanks
Hi,
I’ve just switched from Elegant themes and I’m having some difficulty with Page layouts. Right now i’m focused on the Home Page.
Images are skewed and not centered as before although I did the Regeneration. For example, the Combat Winter Skin image on the homepage slider is off.
Does the slider need to be so large? I would prefer it it didn’t take up the entire page. Can it be reduced?
When i try to to select a Grid Block, the images do not line up. I set up a separate row as an example. No matter the format i chose, the images do not show up. Sometimes there is gray space.
Footer menu isn’t showing up with the elements I’ve requested.
After the Tabbed Posts, I want my page to go straight to the footer but content is repeating
my website is http://www.hotcupofbeauty.com and i have taken it out of Maintenance mode for a few hours
Also, is the beta for the TagDIV builder still available? Is it better to use?
Thanks.
Hi,
You can add a custom title to each block, just edit your homepage and cehck the block settings tutorial – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
You can find there also more details about the ajax filter. Also this topic may help – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/new-to-newspaper-few-questions/#post-63976
Thanks!
Hi,
Please edit your homepage and you will be able to configure or remove the Social Counter element – http://screencast.com/t/ZMdiHXVVZk0H
Thanks!
Hi,
The Mobile Theme plugin comes with it’s own layouts and the homepage layout is predefined. There are 2 sections: the Big Grid which displays the featured posts and Latest Articles which of course filter your latest articles. Unfortunately the is no unique articles option implemented for Mobile Theme. We consider to improve the Mobile Theme plugin for future and also some options, but please note that the purpose to create the plugin is to be a lighter theme.
If you want to have the same content like on desktop, please disable the Mobile Theme plugin and use the default responsiveness.
Thanks!
Hi,
I’m a very new blogger so I am in the early stages of learning. I just switched themes and removed all of the shortcode from my old theme. Is it possible to build pages without shortcode? Also, is it possible to use Newspaper without Visual Composer. I’m afraid of Visual Composer becoming disabled and losing my content/formats as others have reported.
I’m also confused. This theme comes with Visual Composer. But is there also a Tagdiv page builder? Should I use that one instead? Your video tutorial for creating a homepage speaks about Visual Composer.
So many questions. I apologize but i’m confused

Hi, have some questions, hope u advise.
1. How can i have full width display as in “say hello” demo?
2. Is it possible to have a horizontal line below header on header style 2 ( top menus )
3. When i check ‘404’ page, i could see ‘Homepage’ also displays with some default image, how to avoid this?.
4. How to get infinite scroll or load more options for latest articles in homepage ( post loop ).
5. Is it possible to have ‘load more’ on search page template.
6. Is it possible center align footer widgets ( will look nice for horizontal mobile view ).
7. Would be good if article inline ad displays at the last paragraph whenever there are no as many paragraphs mentioned in ‘AFTER PARAGRAPH’ ( ad goes invisible ). Do u have any solution for this?.
Thank You.
Somehow, Dropbox images not working.


Here it is:

Is it possible to align all images in the slideshow to the bottom, in the Homepage?
The image format in the slideshow is rectangular, while in post images are more rectangular.
That means that in slideshow, many times the most important part of image is not shown.
Is possible to align slideshow image, by showing the bottom and hide the top?
Hi,
I suggest to create a new page and import one of the theme’s layouts like you can see in this tutorial – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ or create your own custom layout – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Thanks!
Catalin, is it that difficult to chance the style of Homepage post? As we have options for our posts isn´t the same just set up the style? Why style 8?
Do you recomend any freelancer? It will be a such small change.
Thanks

Nah I meant how to disable category tabs from your homepage, from these blocks. I found a solution at the moment. I am not 100% sure it’s the right way and I do not have any clue what these modules mean there, but switching these OFF and ON I found one module and once I switched it OFF at least from that block I wanted, these tags disappeared, except from the first post from that block.
I did it at the moment via theme panel > block settings > category tags on modeles/blocks.

I meant to change already existing default page. But looks like it is not the option with newspaper. Anyway, it’s a minor problem, and now when I am thinking about it, maybe it is actually better that way how you guys are doing it via creating a new page for homepage and setting it as a new homepage. That’s actually a better way to do it. So you can close that topic here. 🙂
Hello datomnz,
Unfortunately, the theme doesn’t have the option to set a different banner ad for categories or pages. To achieve a similar result, you will need some customization in theme’s code. Please check these links where I’ve provided similar solutions: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/custom-ads-to-header-ads-section/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/different-ad-tags-for-the-category-templates-vs-the-homepage/
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
