Hello,
We are trying to use the Megamenu feature of the theme, but if we enable it, the mobile menu items appear to be duplicated. Check this screenshot. https://prnt.sc/KEQQeueRWr1i
Hi,
By default the same content is displayed on both desktop and mobile, so you don’t have to do anything special.
But if you perhaps activated the mobile theme plugin -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ then you will indeed have to create two versions for each page -> https://prnt.sc/YZ6MN2bjE3Sg
The mobile theme plugin is optional, so you could just deactivate it -> https://prnt.sc/8nkE3gmeWA3T
Or is the problem different perhaps? In case the problem is different, I’ll take a look at it. You can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to the website and admin login (user and pass) and an example of the issue.
Thank you!
Sorry to hear that.
But after some practice it won’t be difficult anymore.
I explained about the mobile theme plugin in the other topic. It’s an optional plugin that you can deactivate.
The theme is built around the composer builder, so mostly everything that you want to customize is done with the composer. So for example if you want to customize the category template, you can use the composer -> https://prnt.sc/ZHgimchHOI0C Same for the post template, tag template, etc.
I can help, let me know what you want to do and I will provide instructions. It won’t take much time to learn how to use the theme.
Let me know.
Thank you!
Hi,
That is the mobile theme -> https://prnt.sc/_IsOgGtqqsrd
The mobile theme is an optional plugin that we provide, more about it here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/
If you don’t want to use the mobile theme, please deactivate it -> https://prnt.sc/HA6sR-UP9iXu
Or if you want to use it, the options for customizing it are all in the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
If you have any questions about the mobile theme, let me know.
I see you purchased the theme a few days ago. It takes some time to fully learn how to use the theme and the composer. It is the same for most other premium themes and page builders. We’re here to help however, so if you have any questions let me know and I’ll gladly help. You can create new topics here on the forum, or if you prefer discussing by email you can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com Either way is fine.
Thank you!
I’m checking the posts on mobile, and from what I see the widget sidebar is actually after the featured image and the post content -> https://prnt.sc/72J2qFN98ASg It’s certainly not positioned as in your screenshot -> https://prnt.sc/hBh_5lIjRovc It can’t be there.
In order for the widget sidebar to be after the comments, it means that you were viewing the desktop post template on mobile. Maybe it was a caching issue or the mobile template was not yet set.
I see you disabled the infinite loading for posts. Infinite loading is a feature from the theme -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/infinite-loading-single-posts/
Basically most of the theme users already updated to wordpress 7. There are no major issues. All we plan to do is fix a few minor issues, and add a bit of compatibility with the new wordpress features if possible. You could update wordpress and it should work fine.
Thank you!
Hi everyone,
I’m using the Newspaper theme and I’m having an issue with how my homepage is displayed on mobile.(www.ecodisavona.it)
The page loads on my phone, but the layout looks completely different from the desktop version: some elements move, spacing changes, and the structure doesn’t match what I see on desktop browsers.
Has anyone experienced this kind of layout inconsistency between desktop and mobile with Newspaper?
Any suggestions on which settings I should check?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Hi,
We should start with the premise that the theme and it’s plugins have to load files, and each file has a purpose.
Those files are related to the Live CSS option in the admin bar -> https://prnt.sc/Hbv7gmqDGdZJ Only an admin can use the Live CSS option, so the files are only loaded while logged in as an admin. They are not loaded publicly, or for any other user roles.
I don’t recall seeing such an issue before, which means it’s either very specific, or it’s happening only on this website. On my test install for example I have no such errors -> https://prnt.sc/C8yG87yzGOS7
Let’s discuss it more.
If I check your website as a visitor, the mobile menu works fine -> https://prnt.sc/zMcWqAoxw9Gg and the search works fine -> https://prnt.sc/Lwq-DKrIYScY Are these only not working for you when you are logged in as an admin?
Or maybe you solved the problem already.
Thank you!
Hello TagDiv Support,
I’m using the Newspaper theme with td-composer – https://www.total-motorsport.com/
On the frontend, td-composer is loading these files:
ext-language_tools.js
ext-searchbox.js
from this path:
/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/css-live/assets/external/ace/
This causes the following console errors:
Uncaught ReferenceError: define is not defined
Uncaught ReferenceError: ace is not defined
Because of these errors, two things are broken in the header:
The hamburger menu does not open on mobile.
The search function in the header does not work.
I have already tried:
Clearing all caches
Re-saving the header template in Composer
Multiple attempts to remove the Ace scripts (both via PHP and JavaScript)
None of these fixed the issue. The site is otherwise stable.
Could you please investigate why td-composer is loading Ace Editor assets on the public frontend and provide a fix?
Thank you.
Hi
Thanks for your message. I disabled the mobile theme plugin. It then worked but now it doesn’t again and my main website is still showing up as coming soon on all my devices?? Please help sort this asap as I need this to work. Many thanks
Hello tagDiv Team and Community,
I wanted to report a severe, obfuscated malware infection targeting the Newspaper theme ecosystem that I recently diagnosed and cleaned. The malware specifically targets mobile users while executing stealth tactics to hide from logged-in administrators.
Here are the technical details of the exploit to help the security team and other users:
1. The Behavior:
Mobile visitors loading the site are immediately hit with a 302 Redirect chain. The network analysis showed the site calling a rogue script masquerading as an ad network: [https://async.gsyndication.com/](https://async.gsyndication.com/). This script then loads a Yandex tracking tag ([https://mc.yandex.ru/metrika/tag.js](https://mc.yandex.ru/metrika/tag.js)), which triggers the final destination spam redirect (e.g., varors.com).
2. The Entry Point / Core Infection:
The script dynamically prepends an obfuscated PHP code block to the very top of wp-config.php using an eval(base64_decode(…)) string. When decoded, the script explicitly avoids injecting the malicious payload if the request URI contains paths like /wp-admin/, /wp-json, or wp-login.php, effectively hiding the redirect from site admins.
3. The Active Backdoor Location:
After cleaning wp-config.php, the file was repeatedly re-infected. Running a server-side file modification search (find . -mtime -2 -type f) isolated the live backdoor execution directly inside the td-mobile-plugin directory.
Files inside wp-content/plugins/td-mobile-plugin/ (specifically Mobile_Detect.php and custom code panel handlers) had been compromised and modified by the attacker to act as a persistent script injector. Every time a mobile user-agent touched the site, the plugin dynamically rewrote wp-config.php to maintain persistence.
How it was resolved:
Completely deleted the compromised td-mobile-plugin directory from the server.
Cleaned the wp-config.php file and stripped the eval block.
Implemented define( ‘DISALLOW_FILE_MODS’, true ); and hardened server file permissions (chmod 440 on config).
Please look into how the automated bots are injecting code into the td-mobile-plugin directories, and let this serve as a warning to other webmasters to check their mobile plugin files if they experience ghost redirects!
Hi,
For me the website seems to display correctly, I think this is your website https://prnt.sc/hb5c23ktlMFX
On mobile I see the website uses our mobile theme plugin. If maybe you don’t want to use that, please deactivate it -> https://prnt.sc/EYiK1fqloLE0 It is an optional plugin.
In case there are other issues please let me know and I will check.
Thank you!
Hi,
That looks quite bad. I see you activated the AMP plugin, was it by mistake or do you want to use it?
If you want to use it, we recommend using it together with our mobile theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-amp-plugin-tutorial/ The website won’t look broken but there will be a simpler layout and design than on desktop.
Or if you don’t want to use AMP and you just want the same content and design from desktop to be displayed on mobile, then please deactivate the AMP plugin -> https://prnt.sc/tWg2bFmrtRgZ
Thank you!
I don’t quite understand what you mean unfortunately. I’m checking the website and I see you are still using the mobile theme, and it seems to be working correctly. But if there is a problem please let me know what or where I should check exactly.
Thank you!

Hi Newspaper/TagDiv support team,
We are running Newspaper theme version 12.7.6 on our WordPress site (https://www.opisantacruz.com.ar) and we are experiencing an issue with the mobile menu not opening when tapping the hamburger icon on mobile devices.
Here are the details:
**Issue:**
The hamburger menu icon is visible in the mobile header but tapping it does nothing — the menu does not open on Safari (iOS) or Chrome (Android/iOS).
**Setup:**
– Theme: Newspaper 12.7.6
– Page builder: TagDiv Composer
– Mobile header configured in TagDiv Composer with the “Mobile menu” block set to “Mobile Theme” menu
– WP Rocket plugin active with “Delay JavaScript execution” enabled
– WP Engine hosting with server-level caching
**What we have tried:**
1. Excluding tagdiv_theme.min.js from WP Rocket’s Delay JavaScript execution — menu still not opening
2. Excluding /td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/js/tagdiv_theme — menu still not opening
3. Excluding tagdiv_npm — menu still not opening
4. Excluding /wp-content/themes/Newspaper and tagdiv-composer — this caused a blank page on article URLs and had to be reverted
5. Clearing all caches (WP Rocket + WP Engine) after each attempt
**Console errors detected (Chrome DevTools):**
– [Violation] 'setInterval' handler took 133ms in tagdiv_theme.min.js?ver=12.7.6:236
– Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token '.' in swg-basic.js:1
– Two 404 errors: /wp-content/cache/min/1/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/css-live/assets/external/ace/snippets/text.js and ace/mode-less.js
**Question:**
Which specific JavaScript file handles the mobile hamburger menu toggle in Newspaper 12.7.6, and what is the correct way to exclude it from WP Rocket’s Delay JavaScript execution without breaking other functionality?
Alternatively, is there a recommended configuration for using Newspaper 12.7.6 with WP Rocket’s Delay JavaScript execution enabled?
Thank you.
The pages must have names, they are regular pages after all. The feature is called mobile page. If you set the same name for the mobile page as the desktop page, then it will have a “-2” at the end, that’s how wordpress treats duplicates. You can all it anything you want however, the page itself is not meant to be accessed directly anywhere on the website.
The URL isn’t changing desktop vs mobile. So this page https://glostv.com/estados has the same URL on desktop https://prnt.sc/-1vo-VhmDr3J and on mobile https://prnt.sc/zsWdJWIKnyxJ The theme just displays the content from the mobile page, it’s not actually switching the pages and the URLs. It switches the content from the desktop page with the content from the mobile page, the URL remains the same.
If this https://glostv.com/estados-2 is the mobile version of this https://glostv.com/estados I’m not sure why you are using a mobile page, they look exactly the same. Or maybe it’s just as an example.
At this time from what I know there aren’t plans to change how the mobile pages and templates work. Many of our users use these and there are no issues with them to fix.
Thank you!
You misinterpreted it, because what happens in practice is not the way you said before. In practice, it happens like this, I’ll give an example showing it in practice.
The normal URL without a mobile page is this: https://glostv.com/estados. However, when I create a separate page for mobile to customize it using the Dav Composer, it asks for a name. I put “estados” (states), and the URL changes to https://glostv.com/estados-2 on mobile. The same thing happens with the homepage. The problem with the homepage is that I have to put a name, and that name goes to the page’s URL. Do you understand? I need to know the right way to do this. This can’t happen, changing the URL when creating a mobile version. Understand that it really can’t. This is confusing; Google indexes both the mobile version and the desktop version, and this all gets messed up. You need to talk to the theme owner who created this logic and developed this to find out what the logic is, the solution to all this, and if they will release an update to fix this.
Hi,
Not sure what you are doing there exactly. Are you setting the mobile page as the homepage for the website? Why exactly are you doing that?
The way it works is like this. You have a desktop page which is used as the homepage. You create a mobile page for it, which is basically a regular page.
When you set the mobile page for the desktop page, the theme displays the content from that mobile page on mobile. Nothing else has to be done. The URLs are not changing. The theme doesn’t actually load that mobile page in the browser via it’s link, it uses the content from it. I don’t think this is a mess, it’s quite easy to use.
Or am I misunderstanding the problem?
Thank you!
On my Newspaper theme, I still use WPBakery Page Builder. I have have created a simple row , 2 columns, each with a single image in it – image 1 and 2. I have duplicated that row, now with images 3 and 4. All is fine on desktop and tablet, but on mobile the images are 1, 3, 2, 4. How can I get them back in the right order?
Hello tagDiv Support,
I am experiencing a responsive layout issue with the Newspaper Theme / tagDiv Composer on mobile devices.
Problem description:
On the second/narrower mobile viewport, the entire layout suddenly behaves as if the desktop width is still active. Rows, columns and content containers expand to desktop width instead of adapting to the smaller mobile viewport.
Important details:
* The issue only appears on the narrower mobile viewport.
* Desktop and larger mobile/tablet viewports work correctly.
* The problem affects the entire viewport width, not just a single element.
* I already checked common responsive settings and cleared caches.
* The problem persists even after removing several header elements.
* The affected pages are built with tagDiv Composer and Cloud Templates.
* I suspect either:
* corrupted viewport-specific Composer settings,
* a responsive inheritance problem,
* Stretch Row / fixed-width settings not resetting correctly,
* or a known issue related to the lower mobile viewport.
Additional observations:
* I found references in your changelog mentioning fixes related to:
* responsive checkbox behavior on lower viewports,
* sticky columns on mobile,
* viewport-specific layout issues.
Questions:
1. Are there known issues in recent Newspaper versions related to the second mobile viewport?
2. Is there a known bug where desktop width settings persist on smaller mobile breakpoints?
3. Could this be related to:
* Stretch Row,
* Sticky Columns,
* Cloud Header templates,
* Mobile Theme plugin,
* or Composer viewport inheritance?
4. Is there a recommended way to fully reset viewport-specific Composer settings for rows/columns?
Environment:
* WordPress
* Newspaper Theme
* tagDiv Composer
* Cloud Templates enabled
* Classic Editor
* Responsive mode (not AMP)
Thank you.
Hi,
The mobile theme is optional, use it only if you want to. The mobile theme has it’s own homepage, header, footer, post template, category template etc. These are created to be as simple as possible. All the available settings for the mobile theme are in the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ Everything is supposed to change after you activated it, it should look as presented here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ But if you want to use the mobile theme and there are design problems, I can check as well. Let me know.
This is the logo I see on your website on desktop -> https://prnt.sc/qoEBatFN4683
And on mobile -> https://prnt.sc/LiFBcobZB4wc
The desktop logo and the mobile logo are independent from each other, so they can be different. The logos are set in the composer like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/add-logo-newspaper/
Thank you!
I turned off tagDiv Mobile Theme, since I couldn’t controll the styles of homepage index – is it possible.
Without the plugin I cannot control the mobile logo. It either takes the Retina logo (I have conflict, because I need black for desktop and white for Mobile). Still cant find the place where i can edit this file https://iberix.pl/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/np10blue-white.png, which is preloaded for mobile version.
Another question: how could I edit the intex of articles on mobile version using tagDiv Mobile Theme. When I turn on the plugin the grid changes and the images of the articles are distorted.
my site’s iberix.pl
There is the read more tag button available in wordpress, but that does not work with newspaper theme on desktop or Mobile. https://snipboard.io/Hx4fn0.jpg
Hi,
Please check the mobile theme guide carefully -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ Pages behave in a special way when the mobile theme is active.
The settings for the mobile theme are in the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
When the mobile theme is active each page requires adding content in a mobile editor. So if you edit a page normally in the backend -> https://prnt.sc/0qqKUP1JHP2J and you scroll down, there should be a mobile editor section -> https://prnt.sc/MERKIYr-4iM5 That’s the content the page will display on mobile.
The purpose of the mobile theme is performance. That’s why it has it’s own homepage, post template, category template, header, footer, etc. and it’s own section for adding page content. If it would just display the desktop content then it would have no purpose.
And as a note, the mobile theme is an optional plugin. Sometimes with some decent caching and optimization you can simply not use it and use the responsive version.
Thank you!
