I’m responding to my own messages here, as I learn more about how this theme is working, feel free to point any mistakes to me please 🙂
If I use the tagdiv builder, there are no page templates. The only way to copy your existing templates, is to install a demo WITH content (which will create the demo pages), and for the page I want the template of, simply copy its shortcode into a new page, and then edit that with tagdiv builder in the frontend.
If I want to load/save page templates, I need to use the visual composer builder, which will allow me to use an existing page template that you have from your demo. But then I am locked in using the visual composer for this page.
So if these two statements above are correct, and the pitch is that the tagdiv builder is a lot better, I need to install a demo with content, and copy-paste shortcodes from pages whose layouts I want to re-create in my site. Correct?
Is this pretty much it ? Have I got it right? 🙂
Looks like its a problem with Visual Composer 5.2! I reinstalled 5.1 and it’s working fine. Are you going to support js composer 5.2??
Nothing shows up when I edit a newly created page. The option to “ADD ELEMENT” appears on the left side. The right side is blank. Nothing happens when I add a block.
Came across a post that required to update the php.ini
WTF? Just bought this and I have to hack wordpress to make it work?
Also I am getting the following error
Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site http://www.evanino.com [HTTP 403]. Ask your web host if they allow connections from WordPress.com. If you need further assistance, contact Jetpack Support: http://jetpack.com/support/
No errors on my other sites! all this just started after installing Newspaper8
I just purchased the newspaper theme and I’m a bit lost as to how I import existing templates for my pages.
I installed one of the demos (without content, since I have hundreds of posts already)
Now when I create a new page (to start building a homepage for example), I get the tagdiv builder by default, which only allows me to insert elements and build the page from scratch block by block.
I can’t see where I import page templates, can you please assist?
Hi all,
I am having problems with Newspaper8. Not sure if others experienced the same problem first up when installing. I seem to now be missing all the “Block” elements that you can choose to build a page.
Any ideas on what could be the issue?

Thank you Bogan, but we are only using performance oriented plugins, like Cloudflare, Yoast and AMP
So, we just installed:
* tagDiv Speed Booster
* Remove Query Strings From Static Resource
* Imagify
And the load is sightly better
May I have your opinion about also use some extra plugins like:
* Use Google Libraries
* WP-Optimize
* Fast Velocity Minify
Thank you
After I installed the theme, it looks with problem in the full screen > https://www.mediafire.com/?t3n5i84v9pg4gdw
Hi,
I have edited the topic title, please do not post or use sensitive information on the forum. The forum is public, for everyone to see.
We have not made any tests for functionality in those conditions. Basically these are the theme requirements needed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
And these settings for the server and WordPress parameters
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
The theme should function if these requirements are as mentioned. Here are some installation guides as well
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/

Thanks
Hello
I have installed the template in AWS of Amazon, and when I want to make changes in Control Panel of the template newspaper, I do not see the button to save changes, and it seems that this function is not active (ie I can not configure the header, footer …).
Could you confirm that the template is installed on an Amazon server?
Where can the problem be?
Thanks a lot

Sorry, I’m a bit clumsy using Newspaper Theme. I installed the Default Demo (without content). However, the layout of the Homepage does not appear to me as in the demo. What am I doing wrong? Thank you very much.
Hi,
Page speed optimization has to be done by you, this depends of many factors. There are many tutorials here on the forum on this matter, that you can follow. Some examples
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/score-100100-pagespeed-with-newspaper-wordpress-theme/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newspaper-theme-speedify-your-website/
You can install this caching plugin with the recommended configuration
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
You can use Cloudflare to speed your website
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/
There is also this guide to further optimize loading speed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
When testing teh pagespeed, it is better to do it without having google ads and only essential plugins activated. Some plugins can have a negative impact regarding page speed.
Thanks

If the get access token does not work on your site please uninstall and delete your current version of the social counter plugin and install this one:

Hi,
If you mean those thumb icons on the side of the page, I don’t know where they are coming from. Maybe you have installed a plugin and that is placing them there. If that is the case, maybe you can configure the plugin settings to display them like you want.
For the social icons you can try this code to center them, they will look like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/FzE3nRnYt
Enter the code in Theme panel->Custom Css
.td-social-style9 .td_social_type {
width: 33.3333%;
}
Thanks
Hello FREEBOX17,
Normally, the Envato policy allows using a theme only on one install. You can, however, use the theme on a sub-domain if you plan on creating a testing site, but if we are talking about totally different sites with different content, then only one theme per install is legally allowed.
Notice that the recommended and tested PHP version is 7.1. You can try using the 7.1.6 version because no major changes were made, just fixing some bugs.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
This is a wp issue, not a theme issue. Best to install via ftp as Chris mentions.
This happens on every theme if your folder structure is altered or file permissions are not set properly:
https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/cachify/issues/50
http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-fix-file-and-folder-permissions-error-in-wordpress/
Thanks.
Hello vince-2,
First of all, please ensure that you have right installed via FTP way the latest theme version and also, make sure that the system status is right setup according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ Please notice that option should have to be there if the theme will be right installed. After these steps, clear all the caches and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello melovillareal,
It seems to be a problem with your theme installation, sorry! Please ensure that you are using the latest theme version and also, make sure that you are using only our required and tested plugins. Remove all of untested, clear all the caches and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello F3rious,
First of all, please ensure that you have right installed the latest theme version via FTP way, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-install-via-ftp/ because this is the surest method in this case and then, you should check the system status parameters to be according to our useful guide here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ Also, if you are using some untested plugins which can interact with thew theme core files and cause some untested plugins, you should remove all of them, leave just to active our required plugins and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Jankow,
Unfortunately, I do not know what kind of plugin you have installed for displaying a popular post widgets, sorry! Please keep in mind that our theme does not have any such a tested plugin and the theme can be broken. Notice that all of the untested plugins can interact with the theme core files and causes a lot of unknown issues like this. Please try using only of our tested plugins, clear all the caches and check the results. If you want to display the popular posts on your widgets, notice that you can simply use such a block and sort it by popular post because the theme has this type of sorting to be available if you will check the block settings, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
1. You can split the row in a maximum of three columns, just like with the Visual composer
– https://www.screencast.com/t/lqvptr7fl9h
Then you can place the elements you want in these columns. Please note that depending on the row settings, blocks may look different. Here you can see how blocks look in all situations
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-16/
The blocks use different modules based on the layout chosen
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
There is no activation or subscription needed if you choose to use Visual composer. Just install it and use it
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Please consider that in future updates more features and options will be added to the tagDiv composer exclusively
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
2. At the moment there is no options to add a page template. There are three page templates available
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates-2/
Thanks
Best to install via FTP, as always as some server systems time out when trying to install stuff via the WordPress installer.
Hello
We want to install the machine in AWS of Amazon and we have problems with the load of the template, in elements like the tag div composer …
In the system status of newspaper, says that in the section of URPHP.ini configuration:
Server Software: Nginx/1.10.3
PHP Version: 7.1.6
Post_max_size: 200 m-You cannot upload images, themes and plugins that have a size bigger than this value. To see how you can change this please check our guide here.
Max_execution_time: 300
Max_input_vars: 5000
Suhosin installed: false
Mbstring: Not Available
Can it be security clearance issues?
Thank you
Jc
