I am creating a new site, and I am using Newspaper 8 for the first time. I have a question regarding the demos. I like the way some of them look, but I am running into a learning curve with customizing the demo. First I guess, is it possible to customize these demos? I installed ‘Politics’ without the sample content, but on the front page, it shows the site title and tagline as the demo’s ‘World News’ and ‘Politics around the globe’, instead of the site title and tagline for my site. How do I change this? Also, can I edit the front page of the demo? If so, where? Is there a guide for customizing a demo, and for configuring Newspaper 8, overall? I apologize if these are some elementary questions, but I am running into some problems just getting started with the theme.

Also, note from your dashboard you will want to install the ‘classic mode’ plugin prior to moving to WP 5.0 as this will allow you to keep all ‘current’ functionality of the post editor and the pagebuilder. You don’t need to activate it until you plan to upgrade to WP 5.0 (although you may wish to install/activate *now* if you have WP auto updates active, which is not a good idea for daily admin folk anyway).


@simion
— Likely there should be a bump in the TD Composer or NP/NM theme update to mention this with a panel added to dashboard ala the new Gutenberg info box?

Gutenberg fundamentally changes the way a post is made, trying to make it a bit like old Quark and PageMaker DTP software, where every element is a ‘block’ — even multiple items on the same page, and it’s a bit wonky as you can end up with blocks you don’t want, and you can’t easily copy/paste the whole shebang into another site, and basic elements like shortcodes, custom fields, etc., might not work at all.

The classic editor will be the best choice for most people using ANY theme built with pagebuilders for the near term. This is for WP 4.9x and up. Not needed for older (and, ahem, insecure versions of WP).

e.g.,
https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor

Then look for the mobile editor below the main editor for the contact page (scroll all the way down) and paste the shortcode there and update the page. Then confirm if it is working (clear website cache if you have a cache plugin installed).

And of course, in the meantime simply install the classic editor plugin to keep all the current/past functionality of WordPress until Gutenberg is usable.

To learn to use Gutenberg, it’s advisable to setup a test site in a subfolder of your main site like /ttst/ (or /testt/ etc.); install WP there, install TD theme, install Gutenberg plugin; see what happens, without messing with your live site). Super techie folk can also do that via MAMP or whatever, or a subdomain, etc.

Just food for thought. We’re not going to use Gutenberg on our sites as we have NEWS portals, not blogs, so we don’t need to have 20 direction changes in each post, and a nightmare for syndication, losing custom fields, our shortcodes, etc. — a mess.

I want to use the DIVI constructor plugin with the NEWSPAPER theme. But, when I installed DIVI plugin – gives error 500. How to use two systems together?

I got the plugin installation by redoing all wordpress and theme install. However as informed, the moment the td composer plugin is installed, no page in the site works (HTTP ERROR 500). And that way, I have no accesses for some Demos.

Hi,

The tagDiv composer can be used to create post templates, not actual posts. It remains to be seen if this will change in the future. The new WordPress editor will be tested on our side properly.
If you should make tests with it in a testing or development install, please let us know if you encounter any issues.

Thanks

Hi,

You could give it a try, see how it works if you want to. Test locally if possible, a testing install or website clone would be suited for this. If there are problems let us know. We will also conduct testing on our side.

Thanks

Hi Guys

Now we are nearer the forced upon us Gutenburg update how is the compatability looking with this theme?
With the latest update we have the option to install the Gutenburg plug in.

Hi!
something strange is happening to my site. I installed the new wordpress 4 times since yesterday. Everything works until the installation of heaven spa demo. After the installation works a few minutes and I even managed to change the background and a few details, but after a while the page disappears completely! The domain does not find a page, and I can only see what’s in the picture at the technical address. I did not modify any files or the htacces file. It just disappears!

Hello kytmagic,

You should try to re-install the theme via FTP way, make sure that you have updated it and all of the required plugins which come bundled with the theme packet, clear all the caches and check the results.

Thanks for your understanding!

I must be misunderstanding something, those are the same for me
Header style 1 – https://www.screencast.com/t/ta55ks0Xj
Header style 2 – https://www.screencast.com/t/7f91Yjvl

How exactly do they look for you? I am comparing default header styles with no modifications and default demo installed.

Hello andrealazzo,

If you want more settings for Category Description, you should install the Seo Yoast Plugin and make these changes from TinyMCE Editor like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/gg6H1IJ1a1

Thanks for your understanding!

Hi,

Seems there are problems with the theme functionality in your case. I would suggest that you reinstall the theme by FTP, use the latest version (8.8.2)
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

If you have a previous backup you could try and return to it, if you don’t reinstall the theme as mentioned.

The theme activation should not reset by itself, also theme panel settings should be saved in the database, no matter what would happen with the theme once it is reinstalled they will be loaded. If that is not happening then there could be problems with the database of your website.

Contact your hosting and ask them to check if there are any problems with it, or something unexpected happened with the server.
Also be sure to check the theme requirements guide carefully

Thanks

Hi,
I have a Newspaper license. My website was working fine (https://atahualpa.com). Today, I tried to update the website and I could not found the tagDIv composer button. Then I noticed that my license was not active. I inserted again the activation key but now everything is misconfigured, the styles are not working, the colors, fonts. It looks as if it is the first time that I have installed the theme.

Is there a way to recover my original website? Yesterday, everything was working well. I don’t understand what happened.

Thanks for your help.

Not all modules display a read more button, they are not supposed to. There is a list of the modules that have a read more button here
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/read-more-button-either-missing-or-not-supported-with-voice-report-install/

Shortening or removing the excerpt will not cause a read more button to appear. If the module is supposed to display the button, it will display it regardless of excerpt settings.

Hi,

I tried with “bottom” – https://www.screencast.com/t/jmdLDdz1CVYD

For some reason that returns the homepage. Pages are included in the search results. The excerpts for pages cannot be controlled, they will be picked automatically from the page content. Some unusual results can be displayed in the excerpt field.

A solution would be to display the search results in a module that does not show excerpts
https://www.screencast.com/t/1ZwidjL7sxhl

Or create your own search template with the cloud plugin
https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/

The way the WordPress search works it is quite common to return relevant result. This is a much discussed topic online. Many users install dedicated plugins when it comes to a better search functionality, or simply remove it entirely.

Hi,

Most custom login plugins will work and have settings only for the default login of WordPress.
The top bar of the theme will display a default login if enabled
https://forum.tagdiv.com/login-how-to-enable-user-registration/
You could disable this login and use the default WordPress login. The top bar will not show this custom login.

Only if the plugin would provide a login link option or shortcode, you could enter that as a custom link menu in the top menu displayed in the top bar, or in the theme login modal (with shortcode).
But from what I can see in it’s installation instructions it refers specifically to the WordPress login page only, it doesn’t have other integration options.

Thanks

Hi,

That could mean you have caching, check if that is the case and clear the cache. Either a caching plugin is installed or a server provided cache is present.

Also force refresh the page in the browser (Ctrl+Shift+R). That should take care of the problem.

Thanks

Hi,

If FTP is not available, you can zip the package and install the child theme with WordPress
https://www.screencast.com/t/QNBunCmHjubU
FTP would be the most reliable and recommended method to install/update themes

Please let us know if you have more questions.

Hi,

If you installed the demo without content, the demo homepage will not be provided. The design is imported, but it will only apply for the elements used to build the demo page.

Let’s take the top section of the demo you mention, the big grid and stretched row. The row contains a class set when the demo was built
https://www.screencast.com/t/XYH6G0vnkxU
With class – https://www.screencast.com/t/eJrVjd9C
Without class – https://www.screencast.com/t/sl1J9PxBl

So you are missing the class “import_video_slider_bg”.

Of course this simple effect would be perfectly achievable in the CSS tab of the row, without the class, like this
https://www.screencast.com/t/iPKionOiU9X4
This is exactly what the class does. Sets a negative margin top of “-48” and a padding top of “48”.

Despite installing the demo with no content and the homepage not being provided, you can copy the demo page content from the theme files and see how the page is built
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/wish-about-the-demo/

Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
