Hi, I’ve read something about this topic in the forum and I know I’m not the only one having this issue. I’m testing out the mobile theme in a staging environment, and it seems like the mobile theme is displaying quite often in the desktop on chrome especially. I’ve tried using wp super cacher as suggested in one of the discussions here, but this doesn’t work for me as it goes into conflicts with sg optimiser, which I need to keep using for front end optimisation (I tried deactivating the caching option in SG optimiser also). Is there a solution to this?
Hello!
For this issue we have 2 solutions in different cases:
1. If you don’t have installed the Mobile Theme plugin you can simply edit the responsive layout with TagDiv Composer. Click on the search icon, look about CSS section and there you will find an option called “Display” and you can choose “Hidden” from that list.
For more details, check this: https://www.screencast.com/t/P4CnQZ1n
2. If you have the Mobile Theme plugin installed you can do it if you add this css code right here: https://www.screencast.com/t/YA8y0rEB
The code:
.td-search-icon {
display: none !important;
}
Hope that helps you!
Thank you!
Hello!
Unfortunately, with the Mobile Theme you couldn’t have some custom things like footer or header. For more details about this, you can check here : https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
Hi simonxyz, if you have installed a demo, then you should have the same layout on mobile if you are not using the mobile theme plugin , if you have this plugin, then you’ll have a different layout and content.
Please check this and if there is still a problem, please provide a link to your website.
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, you can set a different mobile menu. This can be achieve if you are using a different menu made for mobile. This is possible if you are using a pro demo -> https://imgur.com/4sLp4y1 -> https://imgur.com/U7SdrJb or if you are using the mobile theme plugin -> https://i.imgur.com/k3X11vM.png.
If you are using the responsive version, then you can set the scortcodes with tagDiv Composer in column text or text with title in text area -> https://i.imgur.com/dY3qluv.png -> https://imgur.com/CSPcls9
Thank you!
Hi ejazkhan, indeed there is no option only for amp comments, if you are using the mobile theme plugin then you can use the options for standard post templates -> https://i.imgur.com/gbTSlhX.png this option can be use if you are using a pro demo or a single post template from tagDiv Cloud library for your posts.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please make sure that you are using the last theme vision, Newspaper v10.3.8 then if you’ll use the mobile theme with amp should work ok -> https://i.imgur.com/kUM7kuy.png -> https://i.imgur.com/9twtHeb.png if there is still a problem, please provide me a link to your website.
Thank you!

Hi,
This situation appear when you are using the mobile theme plugin and the cache plugin that you have do not has options for a separate mobile theme plugin therefore do not know when to deliver the mobile version and when to deliver the desktop version.
We tested with our theme the WP Super Cache and with the settings from our guide this is working correctly -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Hope this will help you!
Hi,
I am new to Newspaper theme: some friends have asked me to manage and upgrade their WP website that is using Newspaper 9 theme.
So I have installed a copy of it in my local server setup (XAMMP), then I have bought the last version of the theme.
I have installed it and I have upgraded all plugins.
Now I am trying to fix things like bad header on mobile devices.
So, while following the theme documentation, I am trying the Cloud Templates to add a new header.
I Have found one that could work but when I select it, I see a red advice saying:
“Envato key is missing or invalid. Please register your theme using a valid key and try again.”
and I cannot activate the theme.
So I have tried to follow the activation guide but I cannot find any place where I could paste the purchase code.
There is no activation request in Dashboard and there is no Activation link or panel in Newspaper admin section.
How can I fix?
What’s up guys. I found a solution for the document.write() errors in Lighthouse/Gtmetrix site audits. I’ve done basic cross-platform testing [Firefox, Chrome, Microsoft Edge] and it cuts the mustard. For HEADLINE’s index (which optimizes through Td Composer, WP Rocket, Rank Math, and Asset CleanUp–I double-set the code:
1. At the top of HEADLINE’s head tag [sitewide] in the plugin “Headers and Footers Scripts” [Position 1].
2. At the top of the HTML tag in TagDiv’s theme panel [custom code][custom HTML].
I chose to double-set the {code-fix} because the Document.write() call is originating from Newspaper scripts and I don’t manage HEADLINE’s custom HTML there. I prefetch Google DNS Requests with WP Rocket and save custom HTML in “Headers and Footers Scripts.” The latter being hands-down the absolute best plugin to organize tags/add custom scripts and overwrite other plugins. I tested a number of {code-fix} arrangements and found that when I only set the {code-fix} in “Headers and Footers Scripts” that some of the Document.write(s) can slip through the cracks. Alternatively, if I only set the {code-fix} in the TagDiv theme panel, Wp Rocket’s Google DNS Requests override the custom HTML. So hierarchically, “Headers and Footers Scripts” can reposition the TagDiv custom HTML to take first-bite at the Document.write(s) while still allowing WP Rocket to prefetch the Google DNS.
I re-audited HEADLINE (with Lighthouse and GTMetrix) after optimizing the {code-fix} placement and HEADLINE’s speed/optimization scores shot way up–which actually makes sense if you think about what document.write() is really doing. Code calls for document.write() are telling the parser to rewrite the page mid-read, which can lead to bottlenecks and pose security concerns, especially when compared to security-heavy iframes or other delayable embeds.
Also, it’s worth noting that the document.write() code fix I’m using on HEADLINE is not exactly best-practices. In a perfect world, digital ads would natively load asynchronously. But until Newspaper and other themes drop support for document.write() altogether, AdjacentHTML will have to do.
If you guys want to check out a heavily-customized Newspaper site, head over to HEADLINE.dev. I’ve built a fully-responsive 4-screen Newspaper page, as well as a totally custom Amp site for mobile and desktop. Every single desktop page has a custom Amp version. I even built a one-of-a-kind Bootstrap form (Amp-compatible, Formidable Forms-based) called Funder by HEADLINE. I’ll be writing a series of articles, like this one, about how to optimize/extend the Newspaper theme.
I’d also like to mention that I am not a professional WordPress developer. There are all kinds of kinks I’m still working out with HEADLINE, but I feel so fortunate to be a part of the Newspaper community, and the TagDiv team is absolutely world-class! Take care guys.

Hello, how can I modify and adjust the original graphics and text on the template after the theme is installed? The modification and adjustment have been for a long time, but the font and presentation style are always adjusted. Please help, thank you.
In addition, in the mobile layout section, whenever you want to select installation in CLOUD TEMPLATE, I tried multiple times in the past two days. After the installation is two-thirds, a red warning message appears and tells you to cancel the action with crtl+Z because the installation failed. , Resulting in two major line codes always appearing on the mobile phone endpoint website:
Warning: require_once(/home/customer/www/twasiatimes.com/public_html/wp-content/Newspaper/tagdiv-deploy-mode.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/customer/www/twasiatimes.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/mobile/functions.php on line 11
Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/home/customer/www/twasiatimes.com/public_html/wp-content/Newspaper/tagdiv-deploy-mode.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php73/pear’) in /home/customer/www/twasiatimes.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/mobile/functions.php on line 11
Also, at the beginning, I mentioned that in the part of revising and adjusting the template, although the photos and texts can’t be replaced, but taking LOGO as an example, LOGO TEXT has changed the Logo text tagline and adjusted it, and also has SAVE. Looking at the website, not only the ICON next to the title is still the old template, but the LOGO TEXT is also before the modification. Only the Logo text tagline has been modified and adjusted. The font selection NATO SANS JP seems to be useless…
Because I am not a developer, I only have journalist experience. I originally wanted to change the professional theme and use the favorite Mintyside layout. I thought that as long as the original website output content file, when the theme is changed, then input the pre-output WP website file. Apply the theme and keep the original content, but it doesn’t seem to be that simple,,,,,,,,, because of my decision, the company shut down the website for a week or two. I really need your help and assistance. It seems I can’t do it by myself Yes, can you help? Or have good suggestions? You can pay for it, just want to solve the problem quickly, Let things go on smoothly, so that some of us who have been in the media for more than 20 years, strive to improve the problem of global media chaos, the goal can be carried out as scheduled, thank you
Thanks for informing; I have imported the Gadgets Theme on my blog https://bit.ly/39S59G9 but I am facing a problem in the mobile header the default menu is set and the logo isn’t changed even though I’ve changed it in theme panel.
Thanks

Hi,
I have the London News Pro theme installed. It looks fine on the desktop view however, when I view it on my mobile I don’t see the menu, images, etc.
I’d like the mobile version to look like on the demo mobile version of London News Pro. How do I correct this? Oh, I can give you my admin login info if you wish to look into this for me.
thanks!
Hello,
i would like to create a totally custom mobile menu. can i do it with your theme? even if i have to edit some core files, can u direct me where to look?
else could i use another plugin and insert a shortcode to the header?
Dear TagDiv-Team,
I had installed the Pin It Button On Image Hover And In Post Plugin, it worked fine until the last two updates. Now just the pinit-button in the end of the theme looks a little bit different but the hover function disappeared. Can you please tell if you are using something like “data-pin-no-hover” in the mobile and desktop theme so that the hover function of the plugin is locked. If yes, where I can find it or do you have another solution to get the hover-button working?
Greetings Kathrin
i activated the mobile theme & it’s showing in desktop version too, please help.
Hi,
amazing work on Newspaper!
1) I have been using this theme since June and up to a few weeks it was possible to insert paste url from instagram to get the whole post in without any code. Now no longer. it was so useful. What happened?
2) On my site http://www.minutidirecupero.it I used a part of the template “The Critic” and I activated the plugin mobile theme (without amp because i have another plugin for that). I don’t understand why sometimes appears mobile theme and while at other times the mobile version of “The Critic” (and that for PageSpeed Insights is a problem because a have a score of 55 with the mobile version of “The Critic”). What did i do wrong? how can i always have the plugin mobile theme?
Thank you

Hi Christos Retsis,
When you enable the mobile theme plugin and you want to use the amp you need to select one of those options -> https://i.imgur.com/Tc5A1Cg.png
Thank you!
Hi daehee.kim, if this element was added to a page and you are using the mobile theme plugin for amp template then the amp pages will need a specific content made only with mobile editor -> https://imgur.com/9d0UWLT -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
I’m unable to activate AMP no matter whatever option I tried. I followed the instruction but it doesn’t work. I even set up a new server and fresh WordPress install then install Newspaper. After activating both the mobile theme and amp plugin I chose only amp in setting as I want the mobile theme to show on amp pages only. But it loads the mobile theme on mobile devices however it’s not a valid amp page rather just the mobile version of the post. There is no amp markup. I’m pulling off my hair…
Hello!
I checked your website and it seems you have installed Mobile theme plugin. The Mobile Theme is a performance optimized theme included in the Newspaper main theme and it loads only for mobile devices. It comes with it’s own templates for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. For more details, please take a look here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
Hello !
You are using Mobile theme plugin. In order to use the cloud library mobile templates you will have to remove the Mobile Theme plugin.
Thank you !
