Hello,
I just bought the theme so far is awesome, congratulation. I just have the typical initial questions. (1) I noticed when making updates under the WP-Back-end/Newspaper/Theme Panel. I can only see my updates if I preview them while being login. If I review them on a different browser or incognito I do not see any of the updates. Do you have a build-in cache feature we need to clear? (2) My second question is in regards the <head> section of the website. I need to implement the typical Google Master Tools, and <meta> sites verification for virtually all services. Do I need to install the code-insert plugin? or you have an area where I can easily drop all this on my <head>
Thanks
Fabian

Hi, I have the game demo theme installed and I’m trying to deconstruct it to figure out what actually sets the content in the slider. I’ve tried changing the Filters in tagdiv and that didn’t seem to do anything. Can someone point me to where to point the slider to? I’d like it to point to a specific category to only show those posts.
Hello there,
i am trying to create a new post and while trying to upload the post’s featured image, there is no thumbnail in the Media Library. The image was successfully located in the upload folder.
I click the empty thumbnail and as you can see in the screenshots attached, it seems a bit off the borders in backend.
I publish the post but the image is not there. I return to backend and image is missing from the featured image tab.
Screenshots: https://www.screencast.com/t/Zqn0p8n5q
– PHP Version: 7.3 (tried with lower ones too) (no result)
– Enabled health check and troubleshooting mode (plugin) and disabled all plugins using the default theme (no result)
– Permissions checked (755 for folders – 644 for files) – (no result)
– More than enough space on the server (no result)
– Tried to disable mod_security (no result)
– Installed and run “Fix Media Library” Plugin (thumbnails recreated – no result)
– Run optimization and repairing of Database tables (no result)
Please help.
Thank you in advance.

I am in the process of upgrading to 9.8. Took the safe bet and made a local copy of the site first (good idea it turns out :P)
I still have a few things to work out before changing the actual site. There is however one thing I can´t get my head around, and that is the pagination for comments. Some of my posts have well over 100 comments that gets divided up into pages of 50. Before I used the Child Theme functionality to alter how the comment pagination was display (for reference). Since pretty much all the Child Theme functionality is gone I wonder how I can make this work again, without altering the actual theme files.
Having a small text just saying “Newer Comments” is´nt really so great. Otherwise really excited about the update.
I have installed the demo of Newspaper theme on my website, however, it seems like all the media files like pictures are included in my website due to which Google Search Console is showing crawling errors on my site. How should i remove all these media files from my website without making changes in posts or pages?

I would like to know why this is happening and a fix to this malicious behaviour.
We have installed Newspaper version: 9.8 theme, But we are having a problem with tagDiv Composer Plugin.
1. If we edit any file inside of theme it’s not affecting frontend, Once if we deactivate tagDiv Composer Plugin there are no issues.
2. Also if we edit anything on the Newspaper theme panel it’s not saving, just showing loader infinitely.
Kindly do the needful.

Hi,
I purchased the Newspaper theme recently, I am tried activating it by using purchase code and manually both, but it kept loading for hours and nothing happened. My domain name is RANSLIVE.COM. Please please help me to activate my theme. I have already installed fresh wordpress thrice but it’s still not getting activated.
Thank you

Hi there,
I installed your theme a few days ago, and I just noticed today that all the post views count in my dashboard stuck at zero. Could this be because I change the theme?

Hello !
If you have not used the Child Theme untill now then you don’t need to update it. You don’t have to keep it even installed. The tagdiv cloud library is a plugin that gives you access to all of our demos and features and tagDiv composer is the one that helps you modify it so you can create a fully custom website.
The answer is no. If you haven’t used child theme untill now, you can delete it and stick to main theme.
What I suggest is to backup before updating and also take a look through our updated tutorial for installation and updating the Newspaper Theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ ( I recommend updating via FTP or WordPress )
Thank you !

I tried to import the Author Template 31 into my Cloud Library. When I clicked create template, the message “One of the images failed to upload” appeared and the template was not installing. Here is a screenshot. Please tell me what is the problem.

hi jan, im having same problem, installed the romania news, made just headline changes to figure things out a bit, but when trying to see it on phone i get the same screen that you get, plus a wordpress sign in, (even in somebody elses phone), im following your question, maybe we can get and easy explanation 🙂
I have installed WordPress and the theme, worked on the site, added plugins and suddenly new users got forwarded to spam sites on the first visit. After refreshing the browser our site got shown and this did not happen anymore.
We tried to identify this issue, but couldn’t find it.
We now reinstalled a fresh WP version and the theme again.
We installed the required Newspaper plugins from tagdiv (CloudLibrary, Composer, Social Counter). And we added the Slider Revolution as an additional plugin and the UberMenu.
The site worked for a few days. We haven’t done any changes to it and suddenly the users gets forwarded to spam sites again on their first visit.
Here is an example link it gets redirected to:

I’ve checked the forum, but only see older entries with similar matters.
Thanks for the support!
Hi!
I can’t really understand the relationship between “TagDiv Cloud Library plugin” and the “Child theme”.
My questioning:
– Do I have to use the “Child theme” or the “TagDiv Cloud Library plugin” take care of everything when I do the next theme update?
– When I next update, will it not overwrite my Menu changes, categories, etc.? ?
I don’t know if I still have to use the “Child theme” or if the “TagDiv Cloud Library plugin” allows to secure my changes (categories, menu, etc …).
Thank you for bringing me your clarifications to reassure me and that I correctly install my theme.
I need to install 4 sites with the theme NewsPaper 9 in the coming weeks. Two now!
And I have 4 sites with old versions of NewsPaper which I then have to update.
Your help and advice are therefore essential.
Cordially.
Hello,
I have installed the theme on my website and I wanted to start from the “Coffee blog” template.
I selected “include the content”.
The problem is that I have the content but no styles.
What do I have to do?
Thanks for help.
Hi All,
I am new to WordPress and Newspaper – my main focus is databases. In a lot of the database forums I subscribe to, and as I suspect most of you know, it’s not uncommon for members to share code that creates a feature – not least because others then frequently take the initial entry, adapt it, then re-post. These sites also quite often also feature a sample code silo.
(@TagDiv Support, there’s a lot of really useful content on this forum but it’s limited navigation, layout and quantity of posts make it difficult to search effectively, not to mention time consuming. Can we have a Sample Code silo? Not only would it be useful for members but possibly limit you having to repeat the same or similar support requests).
BACKGROUND
I have a number of Use Cases that require elements on a web page to display simple listings of external editorial content – similar to a news ticker-type display but with no animation.
Initially, I decided that the TD Composer elements Blocks 10 & 9 were the most suitable – as they were closest to my required simplicity and would only be used for these Use Cases. However, the fact that there is no Newspaper option to duplicate a block within TD Composer, and I want minimal plugins installed, I decided to teach myself the PHP/CSS that would be required to achieve my objectives.
FUNCTIONALITY
- The link here shows two page elements that have different content and features which were created using the same Block 10;
- This involved creating new field types using ACF Custom Fields, including a post-type whose options could also be used in a PHP conditional If statement to create the variable field display within the same block;
The generic fields are headline, media outlet and published date for simple listings and other use cases have additional meta data fields; - When the headline linked is clicked on it has to a new web page and go to the external content. The published date must be that of the original editorial, not the WP posting date. This last point is important as I would be bulk uploading posts a few times a week, that will feature a spread of publication dates.
The following provides the necessary ACF Custom Fields setup, the PHP code and the CSS.
ACF Custom Fields
The table below lists out the field names and their setup –
- Post Type: Required. Field Type is “Select”. Drop down list choices are “Editorial” and “Research”;
- Title Link: Required. Field type is “URL”. This contains the URL of the external content page. Non-conditional as it applies to both Post Types;
- Publication Date: Non-conditional. Field type is “Date Picker”;
- Media Outlet: Non-conditional. Field type is “Text” and contains the name of the external content publication;
- Media Outlet URL: Required. Field type is “URL”. Conditional logic is if Post Type = “Editorial”;
- Some Other Field: Required. Field type is “Text”. Conditional logic is if Post Type = “Editorial”;
NOTE: I recently edited one of the Post Type options as there was a typo. I subsequently discovered that in doing so it not only broke all the conditional relationships with other ACF fields, that I then had to reset, but also reset all the Post Types assigned to my posts to a single value – which I also then had to go through and update. I raised this with ACF Support, who said –
“This is expected behavior, each field value is saved independently under each post and it is not recommended to change the field settings after posts have been saved with a value. You can however update all the field settings by creating a query to step through all the posts and pass the new value to the update_field() function. Please take a look at the following resource page for more info on this: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/update_field/”.
PHP
Block 10 uses the td_module_9.php file. My code amendment is here – https://pastebin.com/vJDbVjMA
Things to note –
- I have stripped out most of the default php echo statements that display author, WP post date and so on to stop them appearing if your default Newspaper 9 setting is to have these on;
- I’ve kept the div names etc as much as possible but the naming may not make sense in terms of the fields that sit within. This means the post title font formatting is still controlled by TD Composer’s Block 10 style settings menu. Similarly, the Media Outlet and date fonts can be collectively changed via the Article Meta Info style options;
- Additionally, as both these fields sit within a span class other style options are possible via custom CSS;
- You will see the conditional variable for the ACF field, Post Type, along with the other ACF Field variables defined within Function Render at the top of the code;
- Finally, to display the tags I used the suggestion in this support post (another good example of why a Sample Code silo would be useful), https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/display-tags-along-the-category-on-the-blocks/. My code already contains the php get_the_tags statement, but you will have to copy Vlad’s Pastebin code to your td_module.php file as he suggests. Note that I amended this slightly as it displayed a field label for the tags and I think it’s obvious what they are;
- If you want the same, simply remove the following line –
$buffy .= '<span>' . __td('TAGS') . '</span>;
CSS
This is here, https://pastebin.com/mjTz8Tua and features comments to explain what it does, which for the most part is reducing spacing and tightening the gaps between fields.
Hopefully, this post is clear enough to enable you to replicate and hopefully extend this functionality. A big thanks to Simion C. at TagDiv for his fantastic support in helping me work through this.
Please be aware, I have only been teaching myself PHP and CSS for about four weeks so I’ve no doubt the experienced community members will have more elegant ways of writing the PHP or CSS.
Please share if you do ?
Best Wishes
Gary
Even when I tried to install new cloud template for post section, still it is giving same issue.
Hello !
Reinstalling the Newspaper Theme would not affect your database. So you can simply uninstall and disable / delete the Newspaper theme and TagDiv Plugins. Your modifications will not be afected.
Thank you !
