I cannot figure out why the background image is showing everywhere else but not the homepage: news.snowwatch.org.uk – Please help?
Hi there.
I have a problem with galleries. For example check here http://www.aplotaria.gr/nature-conservancy-photo-contest/ This is supposed to be square tiles gallery but the images aren’t square. What’s wrong with this?
Also, I have a little issue with the homepage. I have asked again about this here https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/reduce-space/ You have suggested me to remove some empty rows. The strange thing is, that every time i edit the homepage, an empty row is added. I don’t add the empty row. This occurs automatically. Let me know what to do.
Regards
Following the first two instructions, it seems to have no effect. I’ve even went as far as putting all the padding dimensions to zero and when I compare the before and after changes to style.css, the homepage looks exactly the same.
I’m having the same problem.
When I publish a new post (or delete the last one), I can’t view it in the homepage when accessing normally, until I do a refresh in the page.
In practice, a recurrent visitor will see the same homepage he viewed the last time he access the page, until he make a manually refresh.
No cache plugin used. WP 3.7.1, theme v1.7.2.
I’ve not activated Jetpack plugin.
Homepage is using module 5 layout.
The web is at laweblegal.com/blog (but you can only see the problem if you reaccess the page and there has been published a post since your last visit).
Thank you so much! This worked beautifully.
As someone who is just starting out with no coding experience whatsoever, your help has been greatly appreciated!
Best,
Nick
Hello,
You have that there because you don’t use the right template. Edit you homepage and choose like here: http://screencast.com/t/6p9gyxZuGF
Here is all the templates explained, scroll down: http://import.tagdiv.com/newspaper/doc/#homepage
For more details please read our documentation: http://import.tagdiv.com/newspaper/doc/
Thanks
Hello,
Add this in style.css
.entry-date {
padding-right: 10px;
}Change like here: http://screencast.com/t/tfmVQGlWV4j
Thanks
Thanks for the solutions! They both worked.
However now I want to switch the placement of date and author. I want the line under each picture to read: Date by Author Name. The only problem is that when I switch the code to look like:
$buffy .= $this->get_date();
$buffy .= $this->get_author();
I get the hyphen that sticks out at the end of the name. How do I remove the hyphen? Also there needs to be a space after the Date. Here’s what it looks like:
at page-homepage-loop.php:
resetting query right before getting sidebar fixed it. Like the following:
<div class="span4 column_container" role="complementary" itemscope="itemscope" itemtype="http://schema.org/WPSideBar">
<?php
wp_reset_query();
get_sidebar(); ?>
</div>Hello Radu & Marius,
First of all I would like to thank you for developing this great theme guys, great work!
I think there’s a bug with homepage loop filter and sidebar settings. When I enter a category ID(s) for Multiple categories filter, sidebar setting from dropdown is ignored and default sidebar is being called(If top category entry on the list has a sidebar assigned, then that on the homepage assigned category sidebar is being rendered).

The weird thing is if sidebar is on the left then it works correctly. So when I check page-homepage-loop.php:
If query_posts($queryPost); is called after <?php get_sidebar(); ?> we have this problem.
So can you think of a way to address this problem?
Hello,
Just edit td_module_x.php and de-comment this line http://screencast.com/t/1U3XLv4id
To change the color of the date just add this in style.css and change to color you want
.entry-date {
color: #777777;
}Thanks for the message!
How do I include the author of each post on the homepage as depicted in the link?
http://www.screencast.com/t/1DNcXqdaW
Also how would I change the font color of date?
Many thanks in advance.
Alas, I spoke too soon. After I went in and customized the Newspaper theme (via wp-admin/customize.php) the problem has re-appeared.
I’ve gone back into the page-homepage-loop.php file and query_posts('offset=4'); is still there.
Is there any way that customizing the theme could have broken this fix?
Hello,
You can offset posts from article list, edit the template you use ex. for Homepage – with article list edit page-homepage-loop.php file and add this query_posts('offset=5'); like here: http://screencast.com/t/4JhbpnY2 and from the article list the post will omit first 5 posts
Thanks
I’m really stuck setting up the theme. How can I delete Homepage 2, Homepage 3, etc and add my own pages and sub pages? I want to pages to look like this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wsse94h9hclsb0a/Capture4.JPG
I don’t know how to set up new pages, each with several categories like those in the picture above. I’ve tried to create new pages, but they don’t show up in the bar.
Please could you help me?
Hello,
Currently only using the social counter on the homepage, here’s a link: http://206.130.122.46
The facebook page I am trying to add is this one: https://www.facebook.com/pittig.be
Thanks for the assistance,

Hello,
I’m wondering if there’s a way to up the quality on the thumbnails uploaded though “featured image” that are displayed on the homepage and above the post copy. Just about all the images we have are pulled from Getty and I’d like to keep the high image quality and not scale down.
Thanks!
I want to start the posts loop with some offset so that the posts in the slider are not repeated in the article list.
I can do this for the Template “Homepage – with article list” using the following code:
Inside page-homepage-loop.php
$queryPost = Array(
'posts_per_page' => get_option('posts_per_page'),
'paged' => $paged
);
Add the following element to the array:
'offset' => 5,
But I cannot do this with Template “Homepage – blank”.
The template php file page-homepage-blank.php does not have query_posts() call. What should I do in order to offset the post listing?
Hello,
Each block, slider can be configured like you want to get article from what category you want, sorted like you want, latest, featured, popular, etc.
The homepages is build using Page Builder(Visual Composer) Do you use it before?
Just edit your homepage and start the Visual Composer(the blue button) Form there you can add, remove, edit all the components on the page.
Also please throw an eye on the documentation there you have some steps how to make things happen. http://import.tagdiv.com/newspaper/doc/
Thanks for the message and please feel free to ask us anything!
Hello,
We removed the comments from pages because that comments come as default on pages(homepage, contact pages, etc) and all client asking us how to remove them from page. And to avoid this we removed from pages because is useless.
If you want you can try to implement the Disqus comments manually
http://ayudawordpress.com/disqus-en-wordpress-sin-necesidad-de-plugin/
http://wordpress.org/support/topic/disqus-shortcode
We try to find a solution for the following updates, is still in our todo list.
Thanks for understanding!
Hi,
I chose to use the “One click demo install” on my website, and chose this version, as I couldn’t find the way to get this appearance via the Visual Composer (it was ok for the big slide, but I couldn’t find the way to get the blocks organized in the category “Don’t Miss” on the exemple I showed you).
How to “manually” build such a homepage ? I also would like to know how to display different categories on the homepage, like in your exemple (i mean, for instance, how to select other articles in “Dont’ miss” ? Rather than the latest articles, which appear also in this line…).
And my last question is : is it possible to choose not to display every article on the big slide ?? As soon as I add an article, its pic appears on the big slide, wihch is not always what I want !
Thanx four your answer !!
Got it to work
I followed these instructions but I had to make a new category and place all the categories which I wanted to featured under that new category for it to work.
I do not know why it didn’t work when I just placed the category ID number in the place where you told me to?
1. We use Block 2 http://screencast.com/t/ihp1OsNZB1ek with follow options http://screencast.com/t/RNQSS7c7uPgI , http://screencast.com/t/YKZ83xD5YFN ,
http://screencast.com/t/jnnQrSpKwmO and the template of page must be Homepage-with article list http://screencast.com/t/XLtMmgkKGw.
Hello,
Just edit your homepage and edit the Block 2 there you have a settings to hide the title. http://screencast.com/t/UcqUIKTL0Rk
Thanks

3. I installed the Demo and I then set up my custom homepage to look like the demo but when I enter my websites name .com, I only see the demo and not my posts and all other featured why?
4. I just uploaded the theme do I have to manually upload any updates on filezilla? Where do I see the updates?
5. I uninstalled the entire theme and am totally confused as to how to get the theme looking like I want…
I am frustrated since I spent two hours getting the theme to look how I want and then in the end I had two different layouts, how I made it and the demo…
I really need some help with this since I read all the instructions and followed them, I am not sure why this is happening at all
