Hello Chris,
I bought this theme because it appeared to be an out-of-the-box solution that is well supported. Your answer does not take the matter forward for me. Please note that I am not a developer.
I am changing themes from Elegant Themes Lucid to Newspaper.
I have read your docs – watched the video – and then done this again and again. Here’s what your docs say:
– If you want to use a demo, install it and that’s it. There is no information about setting the home page etc.
– If you want to design your own page (Page Settings > Homepage – How to build and set it) – Create a home page – design a page – set the page. This is not what I want to do.
In WordPress I have a pre-existing page named “Home” with the content below in the editor. This content does not change when I switch to Newspaper with the Newspaper demo (without content) installed:
“et_pb_section][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_sidebar admin_label=”Sidebar” orientation=”right” area=”sidebar-1″ background_layout=”light” remove_border=”off” /][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″][et_pb_blog admin_label=”Blog” fullwidth=”on” include_categories=”229,14,18,25,19,26,27,28,29,30,31,65,32,13,1,103″ show_thumbnail=”on” show_content=”off” show_more=”off” show_author=”on” show_date=”on” show_categories=”on” show_pagination=”on” offset_number=”0″ background_layout=”light” use_dropshadow=”off” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” /][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_4″][et_pb_sidebar admin_label=”Sidebar” orientation=”left” area=”sidebar-1″ background_layout=”light” remove_border=”off” /][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]”
This looks like Lucid code to me and installation of the demo should override this content, but I’m not sure if this is how it works.
What is the best solution? Can I create a second page? If so what should I call it and how do I get the correct code for it?
I am working on the live site, not in a production environment. I need to keep my site running on the old theme while I make changes to content that doesn’t work with the new theme.
I have three sites to change over and would like to move ahead as soon as possible.
Thank you in advance
Hi,
I think it’s called that!! At the bottom of my page content continue sto gon on for ever. I tried to stop this by filtering out the search. Now it always says ‘no posts to display’ at the bottom of my page all the time..
I am happy with the catagories in blocks I have selected on the homepage. I do I stop other content from looping below continuously. I did fix it by accident befor update to Newspaper 6, but can’t remember
I have am using the same side bar throughout my website, but for some reason the posts that display in both the editior’s pick (which is set to display ‘featured” posts) and the most popular (which is set to popular “all time’) blocks on the homepage aren’t correct. They work in the sidebar on other pages and on posts, but not on the static front page where they seem to just display random posts…
Website is: sunshinesurfgirls.com Thanks!
Hello,
I have added a new block element (block 1) in my homepage so as to have the articles of a specific category displayed. The weird thong is the the articles are not displayed…
I also have a problem with Block 19; the articles are not displayed unless you click on “All” (ajax). I would like the articles to be displayed by default.
Could you help? Do you use teamviewer? So as to arrange a session when we can show you the problem live.
Thank you!
Hi guys,
I’d like to remove the views counter from the slide in homepage.
I used the code below
.td_block_slide .td-post-comments {
display: none;
}
and it worked fine on one of my websites (www.gamesprincess.it).
The other one (www.techprincess.it) is stuck at zero.
Hi
From Appearance > Widgets you can customize only the sidebar content: http://screencast.com/t/8t8neMNNk To add blocks on pages you need to use the Visual Composer Plugin http://screencast.com/t/5B1c7ZjWJGu – http://screencast.com/t/lYbMqgPOxj6J The page content it’s displayed as it’s arranged in VC plugin: http://screencast.com/t/2UESfVSv51 – http://screencast.com/t/DVENHo3M For more details pleas check our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-newsmag/
Thanks!
Excuse me… but How I can know where are placed the blocks in the homepage? The correspondence between the number of the block and the position in the homepage
thanks
Hi — I just switched to the Newspaper 6 theme, and installed the regenerate plugin and run the procedure.
But if you look at my page (http://blog.kozzi.com) the theme is not using regenerated thumbs, it’s using the full size images that was uploaded at the ‘Featured Image’ (right click and download the thumb on homepage downloads the full size image)
So I tried a fresh post with a new images and still — same thing.
This is greatly slowing down my front page.
Hi,
Please set it from page Homepage Latest Articles settings – http://screencast.com/t/iaoppZJCno
Thanks!

I Edit by Q. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/homepage-thumbnails/#post-67196
Now my site and works fine on mobile devices .
Hi there,
I just purchased the Newspaper theme and I installed the Newspaper 6 demo into WordPress. Everythign with the install went fine, but when I go to view my site, the images on the home page different than the ones shown in all of the video tutorials. Also- the images on the big slider on the homepage have a grey overlay to them. For example, rather than seeing the face of the blond girl like the examples show, my homepage shows an image of a bridge. Please help!
Thanks!
I forget to say that the time is only important for me at homepage
Thanks!!
Hello,
You have misunderstood me. I want to show the author name who I will provide, not the “wordpress author name”. So does have any way for example to write the name in the post and then will be shown in the homepage.
Thank you.
Hello,
The newspaper theme is a bit different from newsmag as it does not include that specific template but you can recreate it on pages in visual composer, although it will look slightly different. You have to use the homepage post element like so – http://screencast.com/t/7bKQ4kx6 and this is the result – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/homepage-one-top-post/
Another way is you can add a background image to the row using Visual Composer settings and create something similar like the travel demo – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_travel/ – http://screencast.com/t/msgwHI0oB and customize it – http://screencast.com/t/ueYDvf2ic also you can add an extra class to the row and use custom css.
Thank you.
We really like how the image is full bleed, i.e. it takes up entire width of screen for either the post or front page per the demo below:
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag_fashion/
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/homepage-with-a-post-featured/
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/homepage-fashion/
Is this possible in Newspaper? I haven’t been able to see a way in the demo.
Thanks!

So we’re trying to tweak performance after a long dialogue with our managed wordpress host (Synthesis). I hadn’t appreciated quite how much of a performance hit the theme can take on a server if all the “cool” bits of functionality are activated. We were starting to have 3 – 5 mini (60-120 seconds) outages on the site every day.
The main issue seems to be the number of times admin-ajax is hit on the server – we’re being told it’s thousands of times per day and after a bit of research on this forum and the latest (v1.5) of the theme we see there is quite a hit on numerous elements. So far we’ve done the following:
– Enabled Optimized ajax pre-loading on Mega Menu and the few blocks on the homepage that have ajax filters
– Disabled post view count
– Disabled comment count
– Disabled related content (replaced with Jetpack Related Content that offloads that to another server)
– Disabled more articles box
We’re going to monitor performance from here and see how it goes but wanted to see what other elements folk here would suggest monitoring and possibly disabling? Main next culprit would be Ajax View Count but i’m concerned about caching causing wrong pageview counts (although with the post view count disabled the only thing this would power now would be the trending now box on the homepage and the popular this week list in the footer).
Thoughts?

Hi
i have some widget in my homepage . i dont want them to shown in mobile site . just in the desktop ..
How to Prevent some widget from appers in mobile site only ?
Earlier today I moved a block on my Homepage and decided it’s position wasn’t what I wanted and went to move it back and now for some reason I am only able to move the first 2 blocks on the homepage page builder. I can’t see or access the other 10+ blocks. For some reason when I love the edit page the top left icon in the page builder keeps loading. The icon that links to wpbakery.
I am able to add more blocks, but I can’t see them to edit them.
For some reason the window just doesn’t want to expand the height for all the other blocks to display.
Hi,
Sorry for delay we don’t work on weekends! We answer to the most oldest topics so if you add a new replies we get later to your topic.
Newspaper 6 is a whole new theme that is released for free for all of our existing customers so an update from 4 to 6 may cause the same issues as switching to another theme (but we did try to maintain compatibility where ever possible). We also changed the page templates I guess that you have used the default page template that allowed sidebar automatically to your content. Unfortunately in version 6 if you use the default or pagebuilder with latest articles you have to add the sidebar using pagebuilder. Try to change the template to pagebuilder with title and see how it looks – http://screencast.com/t/F85RTexAME
Also the block title style 1 that you used in previous version doesn’t exist anymore in version 6, that’s why appear this background issue for block title and you have to edit each homepage block and change the background color – http://screencast.com/t/7qRvDzjc
The VC frontend editor is deactivated from the theme files, as it doesn’t work with the theme’s blocks. You can activate it if you comment/delete this code – http://screencast.com/t/o8tlhjUyh
We tried to find the best way for the transition(the script), but some issues may appear. We are very sorry for all the problems that the update caused and if you cannot use the theme, we can arrange for a full refund(send an email at contact@tagdiv.com with you request,also paste a link to this topic and we will explain the procedure).
Sorry for inconvenience!

Hello!
I’m trying to add a section title to my homepage to go over a non-Block Visual Composer element. Right now I just have an empty “Text with Title” element with my carousel element under that. However, that’s causing uneven spacing (as circled in the screenshot)

Is there a better way to accomplish this or remove the spacing between the elements? Also, how do I add a URL to the Title in the “Text with Title” element? It’s an option on the Block-related elements, but not in the “Text with Title” element.
Thank you!
