Hi! I used to have a very old version installed on my wordpress site. I’ve just purchased the newest Newspaper version, and as I was installing it, it told me the old files were going to be replaced. I wasn’t if it would be a problem if some old files were still there, so I just importad a backup from that same website before I was using the theme.
The problem is, when I upload the recently purchased new version to wordpress themes, I keep getting this error message
403
Forbidden
Access to this resource on the server is denied!
What can I do in order to solve it?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
You need to install the plugin from here https://i.imgur.com/gHXE8mr.png , not from the Newspaper -> plugins section.
Thank you!

Hello everyone,
I would like to raise a concern regarding my website. When I go to my “About Us” page in the mobile version it shows nothing. But the desktop version works properly. Can anyone tell me why this is happening? Additionally, the sub-menu pages under the “More” section are not visible on the mobile version. Can anyone tell me how to fix this issue?
Website URL: http://www.cycloto.com
Kind regards,
Khan Mohammad Imran
Here is the link for the desktop version
Desktop Version
Here is the link for the mobile version
I installed the Default Pro demo, I moved around some elements.
The only real change is that I changed the background of the footer section.
When I hit plugins (on the newspaper menu item), it is listed as optional.
I deactivated the plugin and I hit the refresh button on my browser, nothing happened on the front side of my browser.
Currently it is 6.6.12 and ther is a high vulnerability according to Wordfence: https://www.wordfence.com/threat-intel/vulnerabilities/wordpress-plugins/revslider/slider-revolution-6612-authenticated-administrator-arbitrary-file-upload
So since it didn’t ruin my site when I deactivated it. I can delete it right?
6.6.13 is patched.
So how do I update it? I am going to delete off my system until Newspaper updates it to 6.6.13.
ialready unassign the previous website but status still showing ACTIVE,even i deletedthe previous websites. i cant able to install prebuilt Websites.

Hi,
Please make sure that you have the styled.css file in the child theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Please make sure you are installing the actual theme, not the whole package
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/
So if you download the full theme package, once it is extracted the theme zip can be seen, like in this example
– https://i.imgur.com/MTmQrYE.png
Thank you!
If I follow these steps for child theme, I got nothing else except bunch of error’s, this is not a first time I had these case last time, I think over 2 years a go. Please can you make better support for making a child theme or a child theme package.
This is a error
Broken Themes
The following themes are installed but incomplete.
Name Description
Newspaper-child Stylesheet is missing.
Thx

But when I edit this page in tagdiv, it isn’t showing me a form https://imgur.com/4OL3CdJ
PS- I’ve installed ninja form to create a form but when I copy-paste ID in the column text, it isn’t showing me a form. ID of the form is [ninja_form id=2]
How to get a form on that contact page? https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_momentum_pro/contact/
Hello @anamaria
It looks like it’s not the LiteSpeed plugin, because the thumbnails still aren’t being displayed when I deactivate the plugin.
I have also installed Regenerate Thumbnails, but with no success.
I have deactivated all plugins to detect a conflict, but with no success.
I have turned off the Theme Lazy Load, but no success.
However, when I check the console for the YouTube video thumbnails that are being displayed and the others that are not, I find something :
The thumbnails that are being displayed are WEBP :https://app.screencast.com/nldDOPK91NWS0
The thumbnails that are not being displayed are PNG : https://app.screencast.com/LpCvaWVIn1Gdv
Could that be a lead ?
Thanks in advanced.
This question has been asked in the forums before, I know, but there is no solution.
In the TagDiv Composer, I am not able to select the “buy Now” as an element of any kind. I have selected the entire menu, the element (next to it, “Buy Now” does not have a clickable element itself), the row, nothing works. There is no possible way to select “Buy Now.”
It’s really silly, the measures developers will go to in order to make just one more sale, but I don’t know anyone that would want to indefinitely advertise your theme for you and just leave your “Buy Now” button installed forever while they are trying to start their own website.
It’s ridiculous that we are even having to post this type of issue in a support forum.
I’d like a solution please.
Hello @al-2 !
You should install and assign a blank CPT template from Cloud Library and customize it in the tagdiv Composer.
Thank you!
Hi Bettina,
Thanks for sharing those details.
I don’t like overloading the site with extra plugins so my expectation is just to use the same site theme for cross-devices.
What I noticed in method 1 above for the Lifestyle Pro theme, the primary menu doesn’t appear as shown in the screenshot I shared earlier. Pls guide how to make this visible for all screen sizes.
FYI, I have installed the mobile theme plugin. Then under Theme Panel > Mobile Theme > Header > MAIN MENU > selected the same menu that appears on the desktop site. But still doesn’t show any. See here https://paste.pics/f6652c91b63ea3721f356ab38fbe07c7
The site is on the local wamp server.

Hi Team and Community,
I am utterly confused about the image sizes and best practices. I’ve read ALL of the documentation and links on TagDiv, so please don’t simply refer me to a broad link, as some things aren’t clear to us as customers.
I hope this thread will be useful to a lot of people struggling with this:
Site layout (max width):
– Row stretch up to 1400px
Home page:
– Headlines: 3 images in 3 columns , roughly 1400/3 so width 450px [900px on Retina]
Article page
– Featured image: width 1080px [2160px Retina]
– Sidebar (related): 3 images floated vertically, width 320px [640px on Retina]
– Bottom bar (popular): 4 images floated horizontally, so roughly 1400/4 = width 350px [700px on Retina]
I work on a Mac, and having good image quality is important, so images should be served as x2 resolution (Retina) on devices that support it.
Based on this I have selected these thumbnails in the Theme Settings:
a) Headlines (>450px) => 696×0 + Retina
b) Featured image (>1080px) => 1920×0 + Retina
c) Sidebar related (>320px) => 696×0 + Retina
d) Bottom bar popular (>350px) => 696×0 + Retina
I noticed some images were not sharp, and I briefly installed Jetpack Boost to check why that was.
It gave me warnings that the images shown on my Retina screen were not big enough.
All of the images that I upload are 1920px wide, so it has enough pixel data to work with.
We are using responsive design, not AMP because AMP almost completely removes recognizable branding and it’s a hassle to create 2 versions of each page, instead of a simple responsive layout.
So 4 questions:
1) What happens exactly when we select, for example, the thumbnail 696×0 + Retina?
In our case of a) Headlines, the image shown on the display should be 450px on old displays, and 900px on retina displays.
So should I select 696×0 or should I select a 1068×0 (bigger than the retina resolution)?
2) What about case d). I need at least 350px on old displays, and roughly 700px on retina displays.
696×0 is only 4 pixels short of 700px. What should I select? in TagDiv Composer as width, and should I for that resolution enable [] Retina as well or not in the Theme Panel?
These 2 questions are most important first. If we don’t know how resolution is handled by the theme, then all attempts to optimize the page for speed breaks down from there.
3) It seems that we cannot set different resolutions per device type in Flex Block. How can we make sure that smaller devices don’t load images that are 4x bigger?
4) I’ve been testing different plugins, with mixed results in terms of Google PageSpeed Index scores.
Which image optimization plugins have been tested and give the best results with NewsPaper theme, preferably that does all of what it needs to do in the background.
Any other suggestions that can be helpful?
FYI, I have installed and activated Mobile theme too.
Hi,
Using our theme you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/
If you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer, then when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
So, the mobile responsive is what you see then that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin not.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activate and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activate.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
Thank you!
Hi to everybody. I’ve installed the theme on DaniReef.com and every thing seems to be smooth. But I have a problem with the article preview, where I can’t see the images preview and other things.
I’ve received this error

Hello Chris!
There is a workaround for that. Please follow the steps:
1. Install the ACF plugin.
2. Build a field with these settings applied: https://prnt.sc/QtZ0TXke3f-N (Save changes)
3. Use Gutenberg to edit a post/article, then upload your pdf file from Media Library in the field you created. (Update post)
4. Edit the post’s template and add a button with these settings applied: https://prnt.sc/dZW5xvbzU3kK (Save changes)
5. View the post/article and click on the button. It will lead to your pdf file, from where you can download it.
I hope that helps you!
Thank you!
