Hi! I have already installed bbpress and using the same for topics and forum auto-generation.
In addition i have installed the “Automatic Featured Image Posts”, plugin.
This plugin generates a seperate custom post. (i have selected the topics as the desired custom post).
Whenever i upload an image via any post or just a post using the media uploader, an automatic custom post is generated.
I have installed one more plugin in order to add attachments to custom posts. (GD bbPress Attachments)
Now by default i am able to upload a media and generate a custom post automatically with the media. However the concern is the look of the custom post( for simplicity i am using bbpress topics).
Please let me know whether the following can be achieved.
1. Allocate a unique template to the topic (which is a custom post via bbpress).
Currently the topic is displayed as a normal post page.
2. I want to do the same when a video is added through the media upload.
I tried using the use a blank template option and then importing sections for the topic post(custom post look better)
The Custom post (created using bbpress isnt showing as per the template)
Basically I want to be able to change the default look of the topics.
List of Topics can be found here
https://newspatron.com/forums/page/2/
Here is the link to one of the topic that is auto-generated
https://newspatron.com/topic/trump-musk-modi-shah-fadnavis-shinde/
Please let me know if there is a way to achieve this

Hello,
To increase page speed, I recommend checking which thumbnails you are using on your blocks. You might want to avoid having all of them enabled and optimize and regenerate images. You can use the EWWW Image Optimizer for image optimization and the OMGF plugin for fonts. Additionally, you can use the WP Rocket plugin.
here are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

Hello,
It depends on what version you use for mobile.
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/ The option that you need to use.
Suppose you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer. In that case, 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 when 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
The Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin cannot.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated 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 activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
Thank you!
Hi Anamaria,
While Public Post Preview isn’t officially tested with the latest versions of WordPress, I can confirm it was working with 6.7.1.
It only stopped for me when I switched from standard templates to cloud templates. Now, when a Public Preview link such as ?p=58830&preview=1&_ppp=c7f0ac42c5 is created, it redirects to a cloud template path, /tdb_templates/blank-single-template/
Unfortunate as it was such a useful tool to have. While I appreciate this plugin isn’t on Newspaper’s officially supported list, it would be so helpful if someone from the team could try it and see if they experience the same.
It’s a lightweight plugin with over 100k active installations, available to download here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/public-post-preview/
Hello,
If you have the posts created with Elementor and disable the Elementor plugin, then there will be an issue with the design and functionality you have made with Elementor on the posts.
In the Gutenberg editor, there are more options, but you can use which you want.
Yes, you can apply your cloud template to the posts. You can also use global templates and set them to be from panel -> https://i.imgur.com/QFTuZzK.png, and set the global template here https://i.imgur.com/HM0DdSD.png or in the frontend.
It depends on what plugins you have now installed and activated.
Thank you!
Hi,
Can I have the directory, Job board and subscription management installed in to one website. As all these features I wish to offer?
I use a small plugin called Widget Logic, https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/ , it allows me to show some sidebar widgets only on certain pages, or on certain posts categories. I just installed Newspaper theme on my website and I noticed the editor won’t load if the Widget Logic plugin is activated. Could you please let me know how to fix this conflict?
I really need to use Widget Logic, however, I want to know if there is a feature in the theme that would allow me to show some widgets only in preset pages or posts categories?
Thanks.
Hi,
That means there’s something wrong. Normally installing a demo takes a few minutes. We will investigate the problem. Please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and include the link to this topic, a link to the website, admin login for the website, also we may need access to cPanel so if possible please provide that as well.
Let us know.
Thank you!
Hi,
Usually, this happens with cache plugins. If the cache plugin does not have mobile support then the mobile version can be delivered instead.
The solution would be to use the recommended WP Super Cache plugin instead and activate these settings (especially the mobile device support): https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Also, you can check this https://i.imgur.com/Es7nHNh.png
Also, this issue can be caused by some options that you have configured for the plugin can cause the issue.
Thank you!
Hello,
1. I recommend using php version 8.2, but we don’t have a specific guide for this.
2. and 3. We recommend using cloud templates and flex blocks instead of the standard templates and standard blocks, like blocks 1-25 or Big Grid Full or others. So please replace all the standard blocks and templates and disable the tagdiv Standard pack plugin.
4. here are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

Oh! I’ve found this now within WordPress via Newspaper > Plugins.
I have TagDiv Composer and TagDiv Cloud Library, but did not install the Opt In Builder as it indicated it was optional.
https://prnt.sc/8y_uU8o50zbZ
We have never used the opt in builder in the past, but I will try activating it before updating the theme and see if that fixes the issue. Thank you so much.
Hello Guys,
I was suggested to use the Ad Inserter Plugin to set this background design
https://castnetradio.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/site-bg-scaled.jpg.
into the overall website layout instead of using the Newspaper Theme Panel.
I downloaded, installed, and activated the plugin for the website that I’m working on. I’m not sure where to start with that. Everything I tried didn’t work and I’m still lost.
Thanks guys!
Be sure to check the official ACF website for FAQs on the two iterations, the offcial ‘real’ one and the hijacked one in the WordPress plugin directory.
The them has nothing to do with the ACF issue and no control over it.
We switched back to the official ACF with zero issues here. For our ACF Pro plugins there are no issues.
Once you move to the updated official version you won’t need to manually update it again. The free version will have updates the same way the pro version does, directly from ACF.
————————
TLDR: USE THE OFFICIAL UPDATED VERSION OF ACF
DO NOT USE SCF
————————
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/blog/installing-and-upgrading-to-the-latest-version-of-acf/
How to Update ACF
In order to update your site’s version of ACF and receive updates in the future, please follow these steps:
Download the latest zip of the plugin
Log in to your site
Navigate to Plugins > Add new
Upload the zip file
Confirm you want to overwrite the existing ACF plugin
Future updates for the plugin will be available in the WordPress admin as normal
(( I don’t work here. ))

Hello,
I created the structure of my site using TagDiv Composer, but when it comes to creating and editing posts, I couldn’t find the option to “Edit with TagDiv Composer”. Since I couldn’t edit posts with this editor, I installed Elementor Pro and disabled Gutenberg. However, now I would like to know if there is any way to use TagDiv Composer for editing posts or if I need to continue using another editor like Elementor Pro, as I prefer it over Gutenberg.
Additionally, I’m having some issues with image galleries. I’ve tried adding image galleries to posts, but I would like them to display as carousels or thumbnails, instead of showing all the images one after the other. I’ve managed this on the desktop version, but on mobile, the images are still shown one by one. Also, when I add a carousel in the header, I have to remove the featured image to prevent both from showing. Is it possible for the carousel to be the featured image?
Another issue I’m facing is with categories and how posts are displayed. I’m not sure how to properly organize everything so that categories look good and content is filtered appropriately on the main page and archive pages.
If there’s any way to use TagDiv Composer to edit posts or if I need to use another editor, I’d like to know how to proceed. I’d also appreciate assistance with the mentioned issues.
Thank you for your help.

Hello,
Please make sure that you have installed the plugin tagdiv Cloud Library and tagdiv Opt-in BuiLDER. When you have shortcodes on the page it means that you don’t have the plugins installed and activated.
Thank you!
Hi team, our site has updated to latest version of Newspaper theme, and it has caused problems with the website header.
Site: https://whitsundaynews.net.au/
Previous header per archive.org: https://prnt.sc/VVH6Hum4pdba
Current header after update: https://prnt.sc/GzMh7fppa3J9
When I try to edit the header area via TagDiv: https://prnt.sc/XoZDOyoqC8yD
What I have done to troubleshoot:
Re-downloaded header and re-installed.
Cleared cache server and client side.
Removed serverside caching completely.
Checked in file structure in cPanel for any notifications of errors in the log (none found).
The tagdiv editor does not seem to be working within the editor anymore. When I click on a column area and try to add a new block element, the block won’t add in. Nor can I click to edit the code shown within the columns. https://prnt.sc/mJGCzNRp-kZR
When I preview the page and check the network cascade, there is 1 jpg with a 404, but everything else is 200. https://prnt.sc/y01OD1uPpnbO
I’m hoping you can assist!
Not only plugins are the most important, but I will implement your template on the site, tell me what plugins you recommend from the basics to the first installation to achieve 100% of seo and speed what the template allows. I currently have Lite speed cache, rank math. I care about speed, so something for pictures and SEO.
Hi, I recently bought Newspaper theme. Before I start, are there any global settings that I need to setup in order for my content to be picked up by Google News and other news services or does the standard install settings suffice.
Also, can the theme provide a customizable RSS feed that meets Google News’ requirements such as content type (news) free content, author, date etc?
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
Now, the credentials are working, but you have a very old version. Please try to update to the latest version of the theme, 12.6.8, and then try to edit the page with tagdiv Composer, because it should work.
Before updating, do a full backup of all files and databases.
Also, please try to update the theme without activating extra plugins during the installation, as this may interfere with the process.
Also, after the update, please make sure the tagDiv plugins, such as tagDiv Standard Pack and tagDiv Composer, are installed.
Thank you!
I have Version: 12.6.8 REGISTERED and all required plugins as well as system requirements met but when i try installing any demo, the site to …wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_demos# and never installs anything and never gives any error.
What could be the issue?
Hello,
When you have shortcodes on the page, you don’t have one or more plugins installed and activated, such as the tagDiv Composer and tagdiv Cloud Library.
After you update the theme, you must also update the theme plugins.
In most cases, plugins install automatically after an update. However, they might not install if the update is performed with active extra plugins or if the site has certain restrictions.
Thank you!
