Hi there!
I am having trouble hiding the sidebar on mobile. I am using the visual composer wigetised sidebar. I have added the following css from a few earlier posts:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.post .td-main-sidebar {
display: none;
}
}
It is still showing up. I am using the infinite-scroll within a block13.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the category page template can use only one style layout for posts. Not sure if this helps but you can use the page-builder and and add pages with blocks to load your posts and set the block at the bottom to us the load more pagination or infinite scroll to load more posts.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
First off, I own both the Newspaper and Newsmag themes and they’re great. Thanks for putting together such great themes.
For my local News website I am only going to have two types of posts, News and Ads. They are going to be posted in a simple “Block 13” type list only. I hope to have it alternate with an ad, then a story and repeat..
I need some way to stylize the advertisement posts differently than the news posts. I can do this building a page in Visual Composer with multiple blocks, which allows me to stylize the advertisement blocks differently. ( http://christopherpayne.ca/development/02.jpg )The problem is, I cannot use the infinite scroll, or load more stories because I need both types/blocks to alternate. With those functions they are only within one block.
I am hoping to post 20+ stories (10 articles,10 Ads) a day so I dont want to build out one long page in VC with 20 individual blocks. That would be a huge page to load.
I guess what I am asking is:
Is there a way to have different styles of posts within the same category? This would work great, as I could just have everything in one category.
if not, Is there a way to build my multiblocked pages so that there is some sort of page system at the bottom? I hope to not have the site loading 30 posts all at the same time.
I hope that this makes sense. I really love this new Theme, and it is so close to working exactly how I need it to.
Thanks so much,

Hi,
I have created a Home page base on your instruction.
My objective is to achieve an infinite scrolling of 2/3 column of “Latest article” on the left and a 1/3 column of smart sidebar with Ads and “Most recent posts”.
Problem 1 using Visual Composer
Using the Backend editor, I can create an infinite scrolling using “Block 12” but I can’t seem to find any way to add a “Smart Sidebar” to the right of “Block 12”.
Problem 2 using Page Builder + Latest Article
Now I can have a smart sidebar on the right, the problem now is how do I made the latest article scroll infinitely?
Please advice.
Thanks
Regards,
Dan
I’ve tried to set to 0 posts and leave the posts number field empty, but then it always loaded 10, skipped a line, then loaded 10 more, etc.
I’m using Default Template + Infinite Scroll Template (in Visual Composer) exactly as you suggested.
Hi,
Not sure you have found the best solution for this as setting the post limit number to 500 loads all posts on page on load at once and the infinite scroll feature becomes useless. Please make sure you use this right and try to set this again as i said above
I have also tested this and works fine.
Regarding the page title for the default page template you could simply not put a name for a page if you don’t want/need a title and in that case your page will not have a name.
Ex: http://screencast.com/t/ChvzXAfYDOb result: http://screencast.com/t/O8NRtDb5en
Thanks
The skipping line problem I solved by setting about 500 posts, so it doesn’t skip anymore.
The title issue I partially solved by deleting the page name, but it’s not a good solution as I can have lots of pages without a name.
The thing is, Infinite Scroll template (with Default template) creates a page with Title.
I believe it would be a good thing to have in the next version a specific Page template for Inifite Scroll besides the one on Visual Composer (like homepage + article list, homepage bg + …etc)
How can I really solve this title issue without having to delete all my pages names?
Thank you again,
Hi,
I think I have the latest version of the theme and I’ve followed the steps on how to create a Homepage with Infinite Scroll.
I’ve tried to create a test homepage and it’s like this: http://gossipzone.me/home-2/
Something is not working well as after 10 posts in infinite scroll it jumps a line and the posts load in a weird way also.
We would need a 3 colums infinite scroll too.
Could you please take a look and help us?
Thanks in advance,
Hello again,
it seems that the problem is in Visual Composer plugin. When I setup my homepage to display posts without the VC plugin it works correctly, but then I do not have the infinite scroll option.
Is there a way to use infinite scroll without using Page Builder that comes with Visual Composer plugin?
Regards,
Hi,
First please make sure you have other posts which will have to load when the page is loaded. If posts fail to load please deactivate all plugins leaving only this that theme requires also empty cache or purge files if you use any cache or CDN plugins and check if this issue is still present.
If nothing work please updated your theme to the latest version 4.4, we have added new custom made infinite scrolling script with support for a ‘load more’ button after x number of pages.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi,
First of all we are sorry for the delay on which we are answering to this but we don’t work on weekends, secondly sorry for the inconvenience of this issues.
I have checked your site and noticed that you have fixed some of the issue:
1. The infinite scrolling woks fine now: http://screencast.com/t/yZQDm5GnLTtM we have some issues with this that we know about and try to find a better implementation, i’m referring here to the fact that you need to scroll back up and down again in order to load more posts. Note that you also need to have enough posts to load when using the infinite load.
I have tested all types of pagination and work fine. If you still encounter any issue try to use them without any plugins activated as this can cause conflicts and not work properly.
2. Noticed that you have now 12 posts showing into big slider so I’m guessing you figured that out, also noticed that the autoplay function dose work now.
3. Do you still have an issue like this? I not sure I understand what this issue is, I didn’t noticed anything wrong.
4. Looks like it’s working now.
5. I have tested this and the speed booster plugins should not affect the functionality of background-image/color.
6. Tested this and noticed that you have now the speedbooster enabled and seems that the search also works: http://screencast.com/t/kUSsXm3u
7. Should work. You can workaround this using custom css in theme panel > custom css. Please let me know what do you want to change.
Also note that we found and provided solutions to lots of issues on this forum, you can try to search here if you encounter any problems.
Please let me know if you have any other theme related questions.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I just bought your theme but I am having 3 MAJOR issues…
1) The infinite scroll only works once (or 2-3 times for certain browsers), and the next “infinite scroll” doesn’t work or respond unless I wait about 15-20 seconds… At that point, it will “infinite scroll” literally all my posts…
2) The Big Slider does not allow me to slide for more posts, or use the Autoplay slider to do so… I’m stuck with 4 posts even though I have set everything to 12 posts… I even tried 8 posts, nothing works.
3) When I enter Post pages, none of my images show up on screen… I set them up properly because I’ve done this a thousand times on other themes and websites, but this is not working for Newspaper 4
Please help @ leadnr.com
Cool, thanks 🙂
Hi,
Use the do_shortcode() function and add the shortcode of your custom block as you like into post template after the comments template, other than that you could modify the post template and add the code for the loop there and customize it, the theme was not designed that way so this needs custom work and you need to hire a developer to do that for you if you don’t know how because we cannot offer custom work.
Thanks
Thanks for the quick reply.
I tried using the visual composer but that’s not what I want.
I mean is it possible to show a block of latest posts with ajax after everything on posts page? Even after comments? Just before the footer widgets start.

Hi,
The best way to do this is to use VC to add your post content and then add a block into your post content which is set to infinite load: http://screencast.com/t/RAFpBqRJqF
Enable VC on post editing panel from here: http://screencast.com/t/fCBxUJiLksw
Another way would be to use the do_shortcode() function and add the code inside post template. You can create the shortcode for the block using page builder then switching to classic mode just get the shortcode and add it into the function then into the template where you want to show up. If you don’t know how to do this we recommend you to hire freelancer to do it for you.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi, I know it’s possible but how?
On any blog or posts I want to show infinite latest articles at the bottom.
Hello Lucian,
Thanks for the reply. I Had to de-activate the WP Super cache plugin and got it working now.
Although there are two more issues which i am not able to sort out.
1. On the home page even though i have infinite scroll activated, it is not working properly. As soon as i hit the footer, it does not load more posts. So i have to scroll up and then scroll down again to make the infinite loader working. I have tried deactivating all the plugins, but still it does not seem to work.
2. I would like to change the home page design for mobile view. How do i do this ?
I am sending you the login details through email for you to further investigate on these issues.
Thanks for your help.

Hi, that video thumbnail in slider is giving problem for one video
check the screenshot
http://www.screencast.com/t/V5FxvCEu6o4
Its working fine on the other slider, you can check the website
thatcoolwebsite.com
Also, i changed the Block 9 pagination to Infinite scroll, with Post Limit is 5. Now when i scroll down, the whole page whitens, as for the loading new posts. How can i change it to something like a text at scroll end with Loading or a progress bar like in case of infinite scroll.
If possible, release a version that brings you back to the previous one, such as 3.8 which worked great.
I’m currently on 4.0.2 and the following issues I am having are as followed:
1. The smooth scroll interferes with the infinite scroll making it scroll too fast that the infinite scroll wont load. The posts that are trying to load also are transparent.
2. Using Homepage – BG + No Article List (OR) With Article List, the background of the slide goes to ‘stretched’ and the blocks are a mess (shown: http://screencast.com/t/f9OpXQsG)
3. Blank Homepage – I’m noticing when using Module 7 on homepage that it shows the blank page.
I posted in the main forum but noticed that this post is all for 4.0+ bugs.

Hey Marius, I was asking as when you scroll down and it loads new posts on infinite scroll if that will count as a new page view or not.
Hi,
You use a template with latest article and that template is with latest posts with pagination.
You need to do that infinite scroll on a block(infinite load are available on blocks in Page builder). Edit you homepage, select as template Homepage - bg - no article list and with page builder you need to create something like this: http://screencast.com/t/itod8bCfVVN
http://screencast.com/t/feqvh8YHBF
Also I see that you don’t have activated the Visual composer on your site. You need to activate it if you want to work the Visual composer(Page builder)
Thanks for the message!
Hi
I use in my homepage infinite scroll. I would like to ask you if it possible to make it load earlier and faster than how it is set up. For example to start loading more posts when the visitor is 200pixels higher on page than now.
I hope that u understand what.i mean
Thanks
What you’re wanting is loop-single.php with a loop of posts afterward like homepage with loop. I’ve found no shortcode to accomplish this. You’d need to make a new post template from the homepage with loop page template (easiest way) but that’s not a feature in Newspaper. My advice is to hire a programmer for this task as it’s quite complicated requiring js, php, html, and css knowledge to make it work.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. I know how to add infinite with visual composer. My question is a bit more complicated.
In the post page, under the comments, (maybe I should use the file comments.php or single.php) I want to add module 9 with infinite scroll with php code .(Like daily mail posts.)
I cant do this with visual composer.is it possible to wotk with shortcode?? Like [module 9 short code here] .
Any solution?
