i was able to fix it by importing theme settings from same theme installed on different website…
not sure what the issue was?
Hello,
I had to uninstall the black version theme because it’s pages were taking too long to load. I decided I would try to duplicate it instead. However, I came across this problem in which I can not change the default body background color to #1a1a1a from white. I tried changing the background color in General Theme Colors, but only the sides of the body changed with the row remaining white. I also realized that the Black Version had a class called td-black that is responsible for it #1a1a1a background color. So I try this code:
” .td-black .td-trending-now-title {
background-color: orange!important;
}”
from the forum to see what would happen and nothing happened. My question is how can I duplicate the body background color of the black version theme on to my site? or even better how can the black version theme be optimized so that is doesn’t take so long to load?
Thank you.
@tageldart We’ve got the same story! I just started working on my site a few days ago.
Anyway, I was able to fix the issue.
What happened have I recently installed a plugin which affected the theme. So I just disabled my most recent plugin and I was able to same on them settings.
Another thing I noticed was the allowed memory limit on my host was just too low! 34mb. So I had to contact my host to increase it to 128mb.
Increasing the memory limit on your hosting a limit may just be the solution you need.
Yes. You need to install just the theme folder zip, *not* the ‘all files’ zip.
Dear Simion,
I follow your instructions but the results are unchanged .
My web : fexpect.com
I do not know html,I don’t add any code,So I just created Front Page and install the plugins : iThemes Security ; TinyMCE Advanced ; WP Super Cache ; WPBakery Visual Composer ; Yoast SEO.
please help me,I will add your mail as Administrator so you can easily check
Thanks
Your sincerely
ps: this is the very first theme installation
I can’t install the theme, version 8. Downloaded it today from Envato.
When uploading via WP theme uploader I get a “are you sure you want to proceed?” popup and no chance to go forward – it usually appears when the theme is broken (as in fact it appears to be)
when uploading via FTP everything goes smooth, but then in the Themes section I get an error message, saying that the theme misses the Syle sheet, and hence it is installed, but cannot be used.
What can I do?
I’ve installed the WordPress AMP plugin for AMP-enabled posts. There are a few drawbacks though, most of which are cosmetic and I’ll try to sort myself. However, there is also a problem with the viewcounter. When an AMP-version of a post is viewed, the viewcounter doesn’t go up. This is a pretty big issue for me. Is there some sort of script I can input in AMP-enabled posts or some other solution in order to make the viewcounter go up with 1 when the AMP-version is viewed?
Thanks in advance for your answer!
Good evening, since I installed your template, in my site http://www.ecomesifa.it, i noticed, looking at gtmetrix in post admin-ajax.php it takes 3.89 seconds to load. How can I fix it?
Hello kalum,
Regarding on page speed, please notice that thing depends on how well your site is optimized. Notice that is not a simple task and if you do not have any experience in this regard you will do not bring good results for the theme. Also, notice that we have a speed optimization tutorial but this is addressed only to advanced users. So, if you follow the steps which are presented in this tutorial here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ you can increase the page speed loading and if you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because the speed optimization services are not covered by our support policy, as you can read here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/support-policy-2/ Check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ regarding on dedicated server to fit to our requirements. For an example, you should check our demo preview because this website is optimized.
There are multiple guides and tutorials here on the forum regarding speed optimization, that you can search for and read:
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/

Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
My site (http://www.lankatourexperience.com seems to take some time to load especially on mobile phone & all it takes a 8sec. to load everything.
I tried PageSpeed Insights to test my site it also says poor 36/100. I tried uninstalling some plugins and temporarily removed ad codes but no luck. http://www.screencast.com/t/5EABMEV2o
Appreciate your assistance in finding a solution to speed up my site thanks.
OK,
Please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to your site, wp-admin and ftp access so we can login ad investigate the problems. Please create a back-up of your install as we will attempt to update to the latest version to investigate the issues presented above.
Thank you!
After I copied files and database to my local WAMP server the theme settings were reset to seems to be like the first install state. I could see old settings (like custom styling etc) in the database (“options” table) after I import old database but before I try to use the site. After the first use of the site the theme gets reset and all custom settings disappear.
We are changing our site’s maintenance and development process to automate deployments and use GIT versioning system so this is important for us to find the way to transfer copies of working website to different hosts. How could we do that?
As an interim solution and because I can not have the web in malfunction, I deleted version 8.1 of the topic and installed the 7.6 that is the one I have right now. Now it works perfectly, but I understand that I must install the latest version so I ask for your help, or send me the 8.0 to leave the latest installed without being 8.1.
I reiterate that I have no objection in giving them permission to proceed to install the 8.1 and that works correctly.
I am waiting for your indications.
I tried to disable all plugins except the page builder and cleared the cache, but the web still does not work. Also, I have no cdn files nor have I added any code to the subject.
I need to fix this as soon as possible. We are a digital newspaper and we can not have the web as well.
What solution do they give me?
I am considering installing 8.0 version again which was the one that worked well for me. The only thing is that in the notebook I’m working on now I do not have it. Can you send it to me? Or if not, I have no problem in providing permissions in wordpress for me to solve this problem.
Thank you
Hello aqimz91,
Please ensure that you have right installed the theme via FTP way and then, make sure if you do not use the both page builder simultaneously. Also, we do not recommend to have all of them to be active in the same way. Use one of them.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
Please make sure you also update wp super cache and only use these settings: install-and-configure/
WP super cache is a tested plugin and it works fine with our theme. I have just tested it again and there are no issues showing up. There is something else affecting your site that in combination with wp super cache breaks the layout. Please also test this on a sub-domain with a fresh install of the theme and wp super cache. Without any additional plugins or optimization.
Thank you!
Hello,
The code does not disable itself. The theme code needs activation ONCE and that’s it. You have a problem that resets the database most likely. Either it’s a malware or a plugin that needs resetting those fields. I can’t say for sure but it’s not a theme related issue. There is an external influence over the db fields where the activation is kept. The theme only resets the key activation if the reset key button is pressed in the system status screen.
Please only use tested and recommended plugins and clean your WP install of any malware.
The only tested and recommended plugins to use with our theme are these ones:
WP Super Cache- caching plugin
Contact form 7- used to make contact forms
bbPress- forum plugin
BuddyPress- social network plugin
Font Awesome 4 Menus- icon pack, supported in the theme menus
Jetpack- plugin with lots of features *it may slow down your site
WooCommerce- eCommerce solution
WordPress (Yoast) SEO- SEO plugin
Wp User Avatar- Change users avatars
Anything beyond this list is not tested and I cannot say for sure if it will work or not.
Also please make sure your system status parameters are set according to this guide:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Thank you!
Hi,
I understand now but I also see minify options available on your install. Please disable any optimization plugin or tool used and disable all plugins except the page builder and clear cache afterwards.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please try to deactivate all your plugins except theme plugins and clear any caching installed. Then check if the user registration is working properly.
If you have any modification to the theme and WordPress check them as well. If you could provide a link to your website we will inspect the issue.
Thanks
Okay, really bad news.
I might try to rebuild/recufigure almost everything, the problem is that 90% of the elements are not working or mostly not visible. It would be a mad job.
Is there a less recent version (7 maybe?) partially compatible with 4.6 and that allows me to update only changing something? (and not having to rebuild the entire site). I’m doing it for site security reasons.
Buying a later version of the same theme I expected some compatibility, though obviously not total, otherwise I would not have bought it. Can we find a solution (a compromise) using an intermediate version?
It’s a really complex site, I need to keep it secure but it’s impossible to rebuild/reconfigure everything as if installing a new theme.
Hi,
Please keep in mind that what you want to do is a BIG update and the theme will be broken because it is totally another theme, sorry!
In order to achieve the best results after you will install the latest update you have to follow some rigorous steps like this -> you have to delete both of your themes, child theme, and main theme. All your customizations from your Newspaper 4 theme will do not work because all the files from this were changed in Newspaper 8.1 and as the main theme and also you lose all changes.
The Newspaper 8.1 is a whole new theme so an update from 4 to 8.1 may cause the same issues as switching to another theme (but we did try to maintain compatibility where ever possible).
Always make a full backup of your current installation – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and then do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ update also the plugins that come bundled with the theme files from the /plugins folder. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings.
The shortcodes have been changed so old ones will not work anymore. Please note that old files customization or custom CSS will not work with the new version and you will have to adjust or re-add them. Bottom line is that newspaper 8.1 is a whole new theme built from scratch.
Unfortunately, you will have to clear your agenda and spare a bit of time to adjust all your settings to the new version of the theme.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hi,
The tagDiv composer is installed and activated when the theme is installed or updated. If you do not want to use it, deactivate and delete it from the plugins section or simply deactivate it. Also remove it from this location (or cut and paste it to a different place)

Thanks
Hello theg1819,
Should work as expected if the theme was right installed according to our documentation. Please notice that our theme, before releasing it was fully tested and should work as expected. If the problem is still there, you should try to create a new subdomain and install there the theme and check the results. Use only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files and if you are using some untested plugins, you should remove all of them because all of these might interact with the theme core files and causes a lot of unknown issues.
Thanks for your understanding!
