The <H2> tag is now being used in the sidebar. The <H2> tag tells Google what your post is about. Right now, you are telling Google that all of your posts are about this:
<H2>: Social Media Connections
<H2>: Trending Alternative News
<H2>: In Other News
<H2>: Follow Us
This is SEO suicide. The <H2> tag should not be used by ANY theme on posts, pages, or other content pages. It’s ok for a theme to use <H2> on the home page, archive pages, or other non-content pages.
Instead of changing all <H4> to <H2>, you need some conditional logic like this pseudo code below:
IF IsHomePage or IsArchivePage THEN <H2> ELSE <H3>;
(<H3> in the sidebar works for me)
I forget how Newspaper works exactly but alternatively, if you use block templates or modules exclusively for the home page and archive pages (and not on posts and pages), you can change the header tag on only those block templates or modules. On posts and pages, use blocks that use <H4> or preferably <H3>.
I used the Big grid 3 and the Block 3 in the Homepage (latest articles). And the latest articles shows in the Big grid 3 and in the Block 3.
How could I unify the latest articles in the Grid and in the Block?

Hi all,
If anyone is interested I managed to get round the H1, H2 on the homepage and category archives issue quite quickly and with a relatively simple solution.
Homepage:
Modify td_block_template_1.php file found in includes folder.
Modify h4 in this code:
$buffy .= ‘<h4 class=”block-title”>’;
if (!empty($custom_url)) {
$buffy .= ‘‘ . esc_html($custom_title) . ‘‘;
} else {
$buffy .= ‘<span>’ . esc_html($custom_title) . ‘</span>’;
}
$buffy .= ‘</h4>’;
To read ‘h2’
This changed the block titles on the homepage from h4 to h2
Category Archives:
Download and install CategoryTinymce plugin via your WordPress install.
Then edit your categories which will now have a fully functional editor similar to creating a post article.
You can then add all the h2 headings, images and customisations you want.
Note: Outcome will be determined by which category template you are using within the theme.
Look at this site to see:
Homepage Example: https://godhelpusall.com
Category Example: Finance News
Hope this helps a little.

Hello,
How do I get an article to appear as the featured article on my homepage?
Thanks
Hi,
I have activated the function “unique articles” in my homepage, but I want some block as editorial or featured articles to exclude them from unique. This is possible?
Thank you and best regards,
DeA
Thank you
it is posible to display this banned on pasific page like homepage only Id 8999. i want to display this add only on home page at the top manu. not all page
Newspaper is one of the best looking theme with a lot of features. I’m not an expert. My only complain is about h1 and h2 tags. If developers fix this problem, It will be best. But TechRanker mentioned some seo friendly themes which are very popular and many bloggers are using these themes. Someone mentioned about yoast seo plugin’s bugs. But i want to say, Obviously a SEO plugin won’t add h1, h2 tags on homepage. Theme does SEO 40%. 60% should be done by a SEO plugin.
Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for the quick reply. Amazing support. One of the reasons we choose you guys.
Well, I had already re-generated all thumbnails, and I just re-did that.
We still have those weird gray spaces in our thumbs. Check our homepage:
http://www.temporadalivre.com/blog
Also, one question: when somebody makes a new blog post, they upload huge images (some times 3000px wide). Does the theme have any code to reduce the image size? In the cropping process, is this done?
I’m saying this because I don’t need huge 3000px images, they could be cropped and limited by the theme to the largest width to occupy 100% width.
Or we have to do that manually?
Hi there guys, I searched the forum and couldn’t find an answer.
We just updated from 4.5 to 6.7.
Our homepage had beautiful clear images, and now they are extremely dark, due to that gradient filter.
Is there a setting for this? I’d like the pictures to be dark just on the lower part, so that the title (in white) can be read better, but there’s no need to darken the entire image (and with that intensity).
Thanks!
Hi I am trying to build my homepage and I am using big grid 3 on the newspaper theme at the top with 4 colums for images 3 being different sizes and 2 being the same. I want to make an image stick to one column and not be nudged to the next column when a new post is created as the size then does not fit the next square.
Any help would be much appreciated
Hello dear tagdiv,
1. Is there a way i can build my site like this http://themeforest.net/item/furious-viral-buzz-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/15284763
??
From your theme http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/homepage-blog/
I also saw this from your theme categories module 13. http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/category/module-13-category/
I Love this style and design, it might be old fashioned but it look classier.
But i cannot find how to make this exact same style on my site.
2. Another Question, How to setup bbpress, do i need to made a page for bbpress?
3. Another Question, is it good to put summaries in the categories description for seo ?
Please help and thanks for making this awesome theme…
Hi,
Categories in the TagDiv theme can achieve at least two goals:
1. an optimal break down of the content by topics
2. optimal views on the site of the content
In order to reach the second goal, we need categories tags not to be shown on the homepage of the site and in the different segments of the site in the categories tags.
The case in point, I need on my site to have two categories named Articles and Events. What I want to see on the homepage is the topic of the articles or the events. E.g. Movies, Your money, Personal coach etc, and not Articles or Events as it is the case now.
You can see here the example:
http://www.screencast.com/users/mihaelamatei/folders/Default/media/59db620a-c157-48d5-b0e4-761f7fefd46e
I found in the theme:
1. that you can choose categories tags not to be shown at all on some modules. However categories tags are very helpful for the user, so I don’t want to use this radical solution http://screencast.com/t/bBwEhEg1I
2. that you can hide category tag on posts and on category pages. But what would be really helpful for the site owner would be the functionality described above: to hide some categories tags from the homepage and section pages.
http://www.screencast.com/users/mihaelamatei/folders/Default/media/3000f461-beaa-4454-a2a8-176a74f40f24
Could you tell me how I can access this functionality in the theme?
Thank you!!
Regards,
Mihaela
Hello,
Is it possible to reduce the size of big grid 3?
I want to show big grid 3 with sidebar on my homepage.
Thanks

Hello Albert,
The offset is used to avoid the duplicity of the posts and with other words to be unique for your homepage. The number of the posts you can set for each from each block settings, above the offset field, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/mQsT4qmcN For more information about block settings you can find in our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/ All of these settings are tested and seems to work as expected.
Please try to implement yourself because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, we only can guide you to the right direction.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello to all! Great theme! I’ve a big problem on my website (en.fakelot.com). All thumbnails are disappeared (homepages, pages etc…). Can you help me to restore all pictures? I just try to regenerate all thumbnails with “Regenerate thumbnails” plugin, but I don’t solve the problem. Can you help me, please?
Thanks a lot.
I want to add a left menu in homepage and in every post page who has the characteristic of being always visible after you scroll down. It has to be like a column who’s always visible. How to?
Hello res,
As I can see in your image, that is the title of the block in Visual Composer. If you want to have on your homepage more than one, you have to add more block elements in the homepage or text with title element, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/rvVyTFHY -> http://screencast.com/t/22ZJprNBi2U For more information about how to use Visual Composer, please check this documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Hope this helps!
If is not what you mean, please provide more details about what you want to achieve so I will be able to provide a more accurate response in this regard.
Thank you for the message!

Good day to you all!
I am a young Padawan for this theme and I want
to know more about it.
Checking the forums and it seems I wasn’t able
to find the topic I was looking for.
So mainly here is my query, I want to add
products on my homepage like this site: http://iheartdogs.com/
As you can see the hoodie, shirt, and other products are displayed there individually.
My site as of the moment is http://skunktimes.com/ (it’s still under construction)
Thank you for the help!
P.S. I’m really a novice here, so the easier the explanation, the more I can understand it.
Cheers!
Hi
To achieve the current layout on our demos we combined different blocks on the page and set a specific configuration for them.
Please check our documentation for more details about page setup, blocks settings and visual composer usage: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-use-visual-composer/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-block-settings-tutorial/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ Also you can check our youtube videos here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUdVeZ1pbuc&list=PL6CsDkMaejhpWFcFNOIDfdp5nIT0NbUbj
1. On top of our travel demo we use a big grid 6 with grid style 7: http://screencast.com/t/kK4cxADm4M7
2. I assume that you’re referring at this part from our demo: http://screencast.com/t/1K76Jyg8bb6 There we use latest article part and module 14 for layout: http://screencast.com/t/bzWaMkx7qMpq You can also use a block 13 from Visual Composer to achieve the same layout: http://screencast.com/t/uvzjovotqyS
3. To move the title below the featured image on module 14 add this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/1N8UqmYG0qw
.td_module_14 .meta-info {
position: initial;
}
Thanks!

Hello
I am trying to set a filter for an specific category. When I choose a filter, I realize that some posts don´t appear on homepage, (the filter category and other ones too). I have some blocks, first a block 18 and then some blocks 2, using offset post.
Thanks
I have added this code in css file but its not working.. Please see homepage silder
Hi
I have searched and tried several possible solutions, but can’t find a way to exclude articles in specific categories from
a) showing in the big grid on category pages
b) popping up in de mega menu
I know that it is possible to configure the big grid on the homepage and that works fine. However I am not able to prevent the articles from specific categories from showing up in the big grid and showing those articles in the mega menu.
One of the solutions mentioned on the forums is https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-hide-specific-categories/. However the code snippet mentioned there (http://screencast.com/t/3RKjibbv) is different from the most recent code in the same file. I have tried several options with
if($td_category->cat_ID != 87 and $td_category->cat_ID != 36) {
....
}
but all without succes. I did find a solution to hide the category in the category listing within the mega menu with the exclude option:
if (!empty($show_child_cat) and !empty($category_id)) {
$td_subcategories = get_categories(array(
'child_of' => $category_id,
'number' => $show_child_cat,
'exclude' => '87,36'
));
However, I have had no success in preventing the article itself showing up under ‘All’. Can you provide me with an adequate solution?
Hello res,
If you want to get rid this feature you have to edit your homepage from the backend, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/v1u2MV0xEew For more information about the entire theme I suggest you trying to read all our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/ and also, try to understand each element on how it work. Also, you should check our Youtube channel because there you can find a lot of useful tutorials which help you for better theme’s understanding, like this -> https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=tagdiv+
Hope this helps!
