Hello, We are using Newspaper Theme version 10.4 on our multisite network, with WordPress 5.7.2. Ever since updating to 10.4, we’ve had an issue that affects just two of our sites on the network, one of which is the main site. All the other sites have no issue.
What happens is when we build a page with a sidebar in TD Composer, and leave the page template set to default, we are seeing a strange overlapping sidebar:

This is how we have the sidebar set in TD Composer:

As a temporary workaround we can set the page template to Pagebuilder + latest articles + pagination, but this opens up a whole new set of problems. For example, if we try to change or hide the sidebar in the “Homepage latest articles” settings, no changes occur. Even something such as changing the title on the post loop won’t take affect.

As a result, instead of two overlapping sidebars, we now have two duplicate sidebars stacked on top of each other:

Is there any way to fix these issues? Ideally we would like to leave the page template set to default, with the overlapping sidebars eliminated.
We’ve already tried disabling all our plugins to check for conflicts. Here is some more info from the System Status panel:

Hi Anamaria,

OK fixed, didn’t reinstall tagdiv standard pack. 😉

Thanks

Hi there,
I have installed the Newspaper on my site (https://richfamouspeople.com) but the mobile version doesn’t seem to work.
Can someone help me, please?
Hello!
Please make sure you have all required plugins for this feature installed and active.
Thank you!
After upgrading to version 11 my site crashed. How can i to downgrade and rerinstall oder TD plugins?
Hello!
If you want to use a mobile page, then you need to assign it to your homepage in order to be displayed. For more information about this mobile version please take a look in this article: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/
We recommend using the WP Super Cache plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Thank you!
Hello!
Please remove and reinstall AMP plugin, I have tested on our side and the plugin is working.
Let us know the results!
Thank you!
Hello!
1. How exactly was the plugin broke ? If it displays shortcodes everywhere you will have to simply reinstall it and activate it. This should fix the issue, if not, please let us know what the result is and send us a screenshot of the error.
2. AMP plugin does work with Newspaper theme and the plugins. Please make sure to use the official AMP that comes with the theme: https://www.screencast.com/t/HKHUKosVx
3. Page speed of any website depends on how well the website is optimized. That mean that everything from content, fonts, images, host, caching, plugins, everything has to be adjusted so the performance will be top notch. You can see here examples of websites that are very well optimized: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/why-i-cant-pass-google-core-vitals/
I hope this was helpful!
Thank you!
I managed to fix the issues was a database and now i can use the composer but now i can’t get some templates to show edit with Tagdiv composer after doing a fresh install.

I don’t know how it was fixed, but I have the same problem with TagDiv Composer. It broked my site:
There has been a critical error on this website.
WordPress caught an error with one of your plugins, tagDiv Composer.
I deleted the plugin, I downloaded again from ThemeForest, also updated via FTP, nothing, uploaded again via WordPress admin panel, I got the same problem. Deleted all the other TagDiv plugint, installed just the TagDiv Composer, the same problem…
Hi!
Can’t make external products works.
1st of all, when I click on the checkout button appears a message saying i can’t buy that item/invalid order.
So I’ve installed the plugin WooCommerce External Product New Tab. For the shop page it works perfectly, but for the single product page gives the message:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to a member function is_type() on null in /home/storage/d/fc/c8/bemdita2/public_html/brasilnft/wp-content/plugins/wc-external-product-new-tab/wc-external-product-new-tab.php:176 Stack trace: #0 /home/storage/d/fc/c8/bemdita2/public_html/brasilnft/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(294): WC_External_Product_New_Tab->external_add_product_link(‘apply_filters(‘add_to_cart() #4 /home/storage/d/fc/c8/bemdita2/public_html/brasilnft/wp-content/plugins/td-woo/shortcodes/td_woo_prod in /home/storage/d/fc/c8/bemdita2/public_html/brasilnft/wp-content/plugins/wc-external-product-new-tab/wc-external-product-new-tab.php on line 176
How can I fix this?
Updated theme today. Header and footer options in theme panel disappeared. We now have to recreate our old basic headers that we had to find and download from cloud library. Full width headers don’t look the same as before, even if we choose the ‘basic’ header styles that were there for last 5 years.
We used multipurpose headers with buttons on one of our sites. That option is gone as well.
We are really thinking on restoring the whole site. This is way too much work to rebuild the headers and footers from scratch, especially when alignment is off (ex. ad and main menu is not centered, even though that’s what the downloaded template showed. There isn’t no option for global settings (ex. social links, footer copyright text, etc…) like in the past versions.
This might be fine for new sites where you can just install a demo, but on existing sites this is way too much work.

Hi Betina, I said the post format was set correctly. Everything is set correctly. I need someone from your team to checks if it’s a problem with our installation. Without diagnosing what’s wrong we cannot fix it.
Hello,
For the issue with the link to buy the theme, please reinstall the tagDiv Composer from Newspaper plugins => https://www.screencast.com/t/WLy01lbc
Please use the import/export feature from Theme panel: https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/ -> https://www.screencast.com/t/1RwsLsKJYH
Thank you!
Hi, I have a few posts where I need to toggle AMP off. I use the mobile theme for AMP (and have Newspaper 11 installed and the mobile theme updated to its current version). The AMP plugin (yes, this is the one by Automattic) usually inserts a toggle in screen options for the individual post to toggle AMP on or off for the single post. This is missing now. I switched to a base theme and it reappeared in post settings, so I am sure this is a theme issue. How can I get it back?
I do note that there is a toggle to switch the mobile theme itself off or on for the single post but this doesn’t disable AMP for the post.
Thanks
Cheryl
Hello,
You are probably uploading the whole theme package. You have to upload only the theme zip file, not the whole package which contains other items
– https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821510-Theme-is-missing-the-style-css-stylesheet-error
Install via WordPress -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/
Install via FTP -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Requirements for Newspaper => https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
After installing the theme and activating it you will find in the Prebuilt websites all the theme demos and you can import whatever demo you want => https://www.screencast.com/t/6rf5g0Dxc0K
Thank you!
How do I resolve this?
Installing the theme…
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme installation failed.
Hello,
If I understand correctly, this problem persists with the last theme update(Newspaper 11).
If it is so, please make a fresh install on the staging of WordPress and Newspaper 11 and check again.
Thank you!
Hello,
What cache plugin do you use?
Please clean your cache (eve from your browser) and try again.
Also, please ask your host if it has a cache plugin installed.
Thank you!
