Hi, I am using pretty much everything suggested in the guide, via the Siteground (hosting service) “SG optimizer” plugin,including dynamic cache, image optimization and the following: Minify the HTML Output, Minify JavaScript Files, Load Render-blocking JavaScript Files Asynchronously, Combine CSS Files, Disable Emojis.
Note: I tried to use minify CSS also, and that screwed up the headers in the TDC mobile menus.
The Page speed analysis shows an very poor result of 17-18, and the following info: Most of the problem seems to be in the CSS. I don’t know how to do this for the complex CSS used in the Newspaper theme and headers.

Hi,
You do not have any content set for mobile theme, using mobile theme you’ll need to set the content in mobile editor without using builders only thee classic editor, please check our documentation for mobile theme -> https://tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-automatic-optimization-for-mobile-newspaper-theme/
Thank you!
Hi,
If you use the mobile theme plugin, this does not have any font settings. Every font and font property is predefined and there are no options to change them.
One way of changing the font would be like this – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-font-of-mobile-theme/
From what I know there could be font options added in the mobile theme in the future, but currently there aren’t.
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,

I think the new system is very nice. amp pages like the same mobile theme. The same now with the mobile theme is the same as the amp. I think it will be more efficient, wait for updates and innovations.
Hi,
When the mobile theme plugin is active, pages will not display the same content as on desktop. Each page requires two versions, one for desktop created with the composer or in any way possible in the theme, and one for mobile created with the simple mobile editor and it’s capabilities – http://prntscr.com/mw64sf – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Posts, category pages, author pages etc, will use a predefined template on mobile created specially for mobile. But pages require two versions.
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately mobile theme needs those type of thumbs, if you want to make theme, all you need to do is to activate those thumbs from theme panel and regenerate the thumbs images
-> https://www.screencast.com/t/Gv5Pyw4bESL7
Or you can use the responsive version of theme.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Simion,
I followed everything in instruction but the new plugin with amp does not work right.
In this way, like many other users, I detect problems with the test amp https://search.google.com/test/amp
The only way to get the amp pages is to exclude SHOW ON AMP in the mobile theme settings getting a horrible amp page without style css. But currently this is the only possible choice to not have problem with google webmaster with amp articles.
Please solve with an update, thanks.
I also face serious problems.
So I delete official AMP plugin and also disabled it in theme panel.
This new move is extremely bad and its useless. It creates more problems than benefiting users.
I miss using TagDiv AMP plugin, it was very good.
Hi,
So you using just the AMP plugin and not the mobile theme plugin. You want to add a Yandex.Metrika analytics code in AMP. I found a guide in the matter
– https://yandex.com/support/metrica/code/install-counter-amp.html
Seems it requires that a script be added in the head section of the plugin, and then the actual code after the body tag. Maybe follow these instructions as mentioned, should work as they say.
Thanks

Hi,
@Bintmusic To test if AMP works and is valid please use the AMP validation tool
– https://search.google.com/test/amp
In this tool enter the URL with /amp. Or test with this tool
– https://validator.ampproject.org/
@jorgeocampo We understand that the mobile plugin is somewhat limited. Now that this integration between the official AMP plugin and the mobile theme has been made, we will add more settings and options for it in the future.
As a note, we do not force users to use AMP + mobile theme, there are other ways to have AMP on the website, by using different plugins for example.
@mazougagh It is the same when using a default WordPress theme and the AMP plugin, so this works as it is intended to – http://prntscr.com/mwrqox
Thanks
Hi,
by editing the code to “$theme_options = get_option( ‘td_011’ );” all AMP error warnings are removed, so is this a temporary fix or this fix will come inbuilt in new version of newspaper (so that we’ll not need to do anything else later for this) ?
Regarding Adsense ads I was talking about Adsense overlay anchor ads (which remains stuck at mobile screen). Just check the screenshot:
. I’ve already inserted AMP auto ads, but AMP auto ads doesn’t show overlay ads i guess (as it can’t be set from adsense account settings) . .
So, my question on this is if someone opens the site in mobile, then the normal url (https://www.mytechnopedia.com)open which doesn’t show overlay ads due to AMP is active there native, can’t I set the mobile view & AMP view via different URL ? Means if a visitor opens site via mobile he’ll open https://www.mytechnopedia.com by default which shows overlay ads (NO AMP), but if he with/comes via google search he can see AMP view at https://www.mytechnopedia.com/amp/, means DIFFERENT URL FOR MOBILE & AMP VIEW , so this way adsense results can be better i guess 🙂 .
Thank you .
you will see some screenshots:

Hi,
In order to have auto ads in amp version you’ll need to set the code here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/NT2hV4CLz mobile theme – amp ads
For this error https://prnt.sc/mupdgl here is the fix.
You’ll need to go in wp-content/plugins/td-mobile-plugin/td-mobile-plugin.php
and at the bottom of file set this code
$theme_options = get_option( 'td_011' );
https://prnt.sc/mv165e
https://www.screencast.com/t/NclX3sIf
Thank you!
Hi,
That is because the official AMP plugin doesn’t have many settings. If you do not use the mobile theme you can still display ads in AMP, there are a few links about it in this topic – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/amp-plugin-9/
Thanks
Hi,
Our developer team is working continue to make our theme better and to add new improves and fix the existential problems from our theme; the mobile theme with amp is one of them that are on the list to fix and make it better.
Thank you for your understanding
Hi,
That will not be possible unfortunately, the mobile theme plugin when activated will apply to the whole website. Maybe with a plugin that can deactivate other plugins on specific pages, I can’t say if that will work or not. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks
Hi,
If you have activate the show on amp on the mobile theme in this tester you still need to set the /amp in url -> https://search.google.com/test/amp?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bintmusic.it%2Ffestival-fotografia-italia-corsi-concorsi%2Famp but in this one should work in both ways ( with /amp and without /amp ) https://validator.ampproject.org/#url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bintmusic.it%2Ffestival-fotografia-italia-corsi-concorsi%2Famp
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
I have checked your website and I saw that your AMP is valid but please notice that you have 9.5 version of the theme. Here is talking about an old AMP plugin. If you want to have the new one, you need to update the theme to the latest version of it which is Newspaper 9.6, install the Mobile Theme and AMP plugin, set up according to our above documentation, clear all the caches and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Maybe that implementation does not work with the mobile theme. How exactly are you implementing and displaying the maps? Does it require any code to be entered in the theme files? The mobile theme uses it’s own files – http://prntscr.com/mwpfsi
