Hi,
All the demos are located in the theme folder
– https://www.screencast.com/t/CfRzOu6Zt5cZ
When you install a demo the process will automatically import a homepage, posts, categories, theme panel settings, custom styling etc. You could install the demo without content as well, this will only apply the theme panel settings and demo stylesheet containing the design
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
In each demo folder you can see the homepage content for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/khwvgW4dH
You could copy the content of the homepage from a demo, but you will also need to install the theme panel settings and copy the demo stylesheet in the theme stylesheet.
The dummy posts can simply be removed in bulk from the post page

Hello,
This seems like a very strange issue. The theme does not reset itself. Are you sure you are not changing demos? Installing a new demo with demo content can have this result: https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
A demo is imported with the settings as well as the dummy data so your settings will reset when installing a demo.
Other than that, the theme will not reset itself unless you have errors in the database or malware that is constantly refreshing the database.
I recommend cleaning up your wp install by using the many guides online on how to do it.
Also make sure you meet the minimum requirements for the theme:

Thank you!
Hi,
I don’t think I fully understand what you are asking. If you choose to install a demo it will display just like in the live preview. The demos can be seen here for example
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/select_demo_newspaper#demos
The imported content may be different, but the layout will be the same
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Please correct me if I misunderstand and provide more details if possible.
Thanks
Hi,
The latest version of the theme is 8.1
– https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609
You can install the theme using these guides
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/
The tagDiv composer is specific to the theme, and it will be installed and activated by default when the theme is installed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
The demos can be previewed here (right of the page)
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
You can install the demo you want from the available ones
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Visual composer is not required anymore, you can use the tagDiv composer for page building. However it is still provided in the theme package. Please let us know if you have any further questions, and we will try to help you as soon as possible.
Thanks
Hi,
It should work, just install it normally from the theme package, plugins folder
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-install-revolution-slider-v5/
Then import the demo slide you like
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-revolution-sliders-on-demos/
There are multiple ways of installing a plugin that you can try

Thanks
this might be obvious to some but it is driving me mad. Since installing the Newspaper Demo ( health and fitness) I seem to have the demo instagram feed on my page and I can’t get rid of it. I chose to install without content but this will not go – please help !!
Hello anndyjones1981,
Unfortunately, we do not have any specific video which shows you when exactly you can create a demo like Architecture theme but please notice that we have such a video which allows you when you can create a homepage, like this -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC7iz-v-zIY Please notice that if you like our demo, you can import it on your website and the layout will be the same. Also, notice that you can import it without content or import it with dummy content. Very important is to not edit the dummy content with your content because if you want to change the demo with another one, all of the edited content will be lost. You should create your content from scratch and please do not edit. Recreate it with yours and then remove it. More information can be found here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello warrentab,
Please ensure that you have right imported our demo according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-installing-demos/ Also, if your images are not imported, please check your system status parameters to be increased according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ Probably, your PHP memory is too low and that’s why the images cannot be imported because does not have enough allocate space on your server. Try to follow this advice and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the message!
Hello notageek4u,
I have inspected your website and your demo seems to work as expected. Where is the problem? For more information about demo installing, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-installing-demos/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
The demo content should not be edited. Pages, categories and posts that come with the demo are not to be used as your own content because they get removed when switching demos or uninstalling the demo. Even if you edit the content, it will still get removed so it is recommended to create your own pages, categories and posts from scratch.
Please use this guide to learn how to edit the pages: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
This guide should help with the settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-block-settings-tutorial/
Thank you!
I have just started using newspaper 8 this week. When I try to edit a page with TagDiv composer (either a new page or an imported demo page), the composer menu is showing on the left, the page is blank on the right – and when I try to drag and drop the elements onto the black area it doesn’t do anything. I tried uninstalling all the plugins and only having composer plugin but did not make a difference.
Hi Catalin,
Thanks for the reply! Yes, I know the theme itself works perfectly. :/ As I previewed the demo, it worked well. I don’t know what could be the problem. I’ve the latest version, switched to another theme and back to see if it solves it, switched between Newspaper demos, I’ve tried reinstalling the theme, disabled all plugins, emptied cache, disabled CDN, I tried visiting my site on different computers and still nothing. Square youtube video, which is resized to normal youtube size after like a second. I don’t know what else could I try. I’m sure it will be something so easy and trivial, but I have no idea what.
Hi there I just finished installing the basic demo with the full width post homepage option. It looks like my sidebar is being pushed below the content a bit and my initial blog post image is appearing underneath the header. Any ideas whats happening here?
Hi,
If you installed the demo with content, that will import some dummy categories, posts etc. When you uninstall the demo, the process will remove only those dummy categories
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Your own previously created categories will not be affected by this process, or by the theme. They should be present in the WordPress categories screen

Hi,
There is no extra charge or payment required for installing demos. However I believe the theme key should not reset after you uninstall a demo. There should be no problem if you enter it again though.
Please note that you can see how all the demos look, in the live preview
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
Thanks
Hi,
The homepage seems to be empty, there is no page structure and content except a registration message
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ohg8Thquasp
A suggestion would be to first check the theme system status, and make modifications to the parameters mentioned in this guide, if necessary
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Then deactivate all your plugins except the ones provided in the theme package, (uninstall the demo if it appears installed) and install the demo again.
The demo install process should go without any issues
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Please let us know if you still have problems installing a demo.
Thanks
Hello vietfact,
If you will check our documentation with more carefully, you will find the way of theme installing, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-install-via-ftp/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-installing-demos/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
I installed and uninstalled demos many times because there are so many great ones so I wanted to try them.
Well, every time I installed a new demo, I had to enter ENVATO PURCHASE CODE.
Was it OK to do so?
Or do you charge me every time I enter ENVATO PURCHASE CODE?
Please let me know.
i just installed the theme, but after installing the demo without content i can’t seem to get that to show.
Hi,
If you have bought the theme previously, then you do not have to buy it again when an update is available. Simply login into your Themeforest account and download the updated theme package.
Please make sure you are installing the theme properly
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/
Only upload the zip file containing the theme as mentioned in the guides, not the whole theme package.
The demos are included in the theme package, you do not have to buy them. If you find a demo that you like and want to use it on your website, you can install it in the theme panel
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/demos_introduction/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Thanks
Hello,
The best way to get eh page to look exactly like a demo is to simply install the demo from here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
We do not recommend editing the dummy data and using it as your own though as dummy data gets removed if you change demos or unistall the demo.
We recommend actually creating the page from scratch using our new page builder. Please check this video to see how easy it is to create a new page: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hi,
The tagDiv composer is necessary to be active, for the demo to be displayed properly. Problems with some elements of the demo can be present. You could make a test and install the demo in a testing environment, while having the tagDiv composer deactivated, and Visual composer active. And check if everything is fine.
So installing the demo poses no problem, but it may not be displayed as intended without an active tagDiv composer.
The theme panel settings can be exported for saving, and later imported. More about this here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/
Thanks
OK, but you still did not mention what exactly is the problem. What is happening? Why can’t you install a demo in 2 minutes like everybody else? You simply press the install demo button and the demo begins installing with or without content. Why does this process take weeks? Pleas provide more details and if yu require specific aid, contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to your site and wp-admin so we can login and investigate.
As for full grids, please make sure your site is not boxed. Adding any at all background image or color (including white) will cause the theme to go into boxed mode. Please remove any image and press the clear button for the background color in the theme panel under colors section. Now you can use the stretch row and content feature of the row settings inside the tagdiv composer settings.
Thanks.
Hello Karacaart,
Which are featured pages? Unfortunately, I do not exactly understand what you mean. Provide more details about this so I will be able to provide a more accurate response. Please notice that when you import a demo, you can import it with (dummy) content or without content. Please check our documentation for a correct demo import, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Thanks for your understanding!
