Do you need any other information?
After Installing the Sound Radar demo on my site. I noticed a performance decrease of more than 60 seconds load time.
After debugging my site with firefox I found the problem an image file trying to load from this link
(http://192.168.0.208/wp_011_sound_radar/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/mobile-menu.jpg) was timing out. I have looked for it but have not found it. Please can Someone help me out.
Thanks
@neotrope That actually seems genuine since TD Composer and VC have almost same style. Apart from the buttons, you will have to recreate them for sure. There’s a shortcode for buttons though in format.
I don’t know but i have really not seen any great difference between TD Composer and VC. They look alot alike but the plugin of VC seems to be heavy abit.
Stay with VC for sure. Disable TD, it would be total mess re-creating all posts now. As for VC you should know, you can’t properly use mobile theme with it. Try not to use VC in posts for now.

Why does the theme can lose settings in mobile resolution? How can I fix it?
So having used the theme for two years with no problems – purchased it having researched it – it now moves to a proprietary page builder instead of the widely used VC – causing untold problems for lots of people.
Tagdiv should concentrate on what ‘news’ websites are doing – not ‘improve’ something that is already excellent.
I have 7,000+ posts – 20 new each day, I run a business
Firstly it was the ‘super fast’ mobile theme that can’t take ads from the desktop version – ads are how we make money
Now updates will only be issued for the new page builder in the future – not VC – that’s not what we paid for
People have paid for this product – there should be updates for both options and the chance to stay the same.
Do you ever research what news websites are doing now? Newspaper isn’t that much better than many other options anymore.
But now it’s more difficult than ever to use, content is disappearing, people are confused, and developers aren’t improving the features that other news sites are adopting, and so it will probably falling behind.
Plus – my site loads in under 2 seconds with the right settings, I fail to see how any improvement in using the TagDiv Composer is worth any speed improvement it may give
I think you’ve made a mistake with 8 – and have to look elsewhere now which is a shame – look through available themes that are bestsellers for news – they all use VC – and everyone is happy – this improvement isn’t worth the hassle
My website is using a plugin called “CM Ad Changer” by Creative Minds. Their plugin is great because all my ads are hosted in one place and then I can use shortcodes to show those ads on all 3 of my websites. HOWEVER, They seem to be conflicting with the Newsmag theme, specifically when viewing the theme on mobile/tablet mode.
Below is an image of the area where the adbox should be showing an ad. This screenshot was taken on an iPad Mini using Safari. I have activated the dev-tools for Safari to highlight the area. As you can see, the margin seems to be doing something very strange, and for some reason the ad isn’t showing up.

The next image is a dev site. It’s missing most of the images from this site, but the database, theme files and everything else are identical. On this site, the adboxes work perfectly, they show the ads and the margins aren’t messed up.

As you can see, eventhough everything is the same (minus the unattached images), the ads are working just fine. Anyone have any suggestions for how to troubleshoot this? or run into this kind of issue before?
Thanks,
Jordan
Buna,
1) Article bottom ad are display:none pe mobile ca setare default: https://www.screencast.com/t/thTtGZuU
Poti reactiva acest ad cu urmatorul cod css:
@media (max-width: 1018px) and (min-width: 768px){
.td-visible-phone {
display: block!important;
}
2)Acest lucru se intampla deoarece folosesti un block text with title. Acest element are nevoie de continut. Mesajul poate fi sters de aici: https://www.screencast.com/t/hAfE0Khbtp
3) Prin builder-ul nostru nu am incercat sa copiem visual composer si de aceea anumite elemente nu se vor regasi ca de exemplu, tab-uri, acorioane sau alte galerii si grid-uri specifice de visual composer. In viitor vom adauga propriile noastre elemente.
4) Modificarea elementelor predefinite din footer nu este posibila dar este posibila eliminarea lor si inlocuirea lor cu alte elemente. https://forum.tagdiv.com/footer-templates/
5) Depinde de cod. Daca codul este un css, atunci cel mai probabil o sa mearga. Daca sunt modificari in fisierele temei, atunci acestea vor trebui adaptate la noul cod daca este cazul.
6) “Ultimele articole” este un element predefinit ce vine din template-ul paginii: https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates-2/
Textul se poate traduce din sectiunea de translations din theme panel
7)Daca folosesti tema mobila, ea nu foloseste nici visual composer nici tagdvi composer. Aces aspect este prezentat aici: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
8) Spatierea functioneaza fara probleme pe toate platfoirmele noastre de test: https://www.screencast.com/t/8ZKDDZXr – https://www.screencast.com/t/aZCiC9B4Xt4
9) Nu recomandam editarea continutuilui cu ambele builder-e. Probabil te refereai la tagdiv composer, nu la visual . Daca nu, ar fi bine ca o pagina sa foloseasca un singur builder. Aceasta optiune functioneaza fara probleme pe toate platformele noastre: https://www.screencast.com/t/Eqg6Zpb9
Pentru cele 2 probleme referitoare la spatierea pe text with title si culorile pe news ticker te rugam sa ne contactezi pe email la contact@tagdiv.com si sa ne oferi un link, username si parola sa putem sa investigam problema direct pe site.
Multumim
Hello agrajewski,
The mobile theme plugin comes bundled with the theme core files as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/VIoCE8KPRX. For more information about this feature, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thanks for the message!
Ok, i fixed the problem, i have deleted the empty categorie featured and the site is now runing will with the mobile theme!
Have a nice day,
best regards,
Jan Oliver Fricke

https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?hl=de&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.corporel.de
So what is wrong on the corporel site?
Hello,
If you want a bigger logo, you will have to use a different header style. The logo is shrunk to the size of the container as the space is needed for the ad besides the logo. You cannot have a bigger logo and the ad on the same line as there is not enough space for both to fit. If you want to use a bigger logo please use header style 9, 10 or 11 which show the full logo without changing it’s size.
I have tested your page but it is visible in mobile devices. I cannot see the issue you mention.
You probably used the mobile theme plugin. Please read this guide on the mobile theme if you have it enabled to learn about how to use it with pages: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thanks.
My menu button is unresponsive on mobile. I thought I could fix it my installing the mobile theme, but I don’t see the file in the documents I downloaded from when I purchased Newspaper. Thank you for your help.
Hi, i’m using the header ad for my own and adsense ads but nothing is displaying, i inspected the element and apparently the element has a ‘display:none!important’ attribute which is odd as i don’t remember adding it, already checked the Theme panel and i have everything set for the header ad to appear in desktop, tablet and mobile, but it’s not showing anywhere, please help.
Hi,
It was the setting below.

Hello Scott.

Hello cartu,
Do you have disabled all the untested plugins? Also, if you are using the Mobile theme and this will not work as properly, notice that issue happens due to WP Super Cache.
Try to refresh your page and check the results. Clear all your caches after this. Also, try to remove all the server caches and if you do not have any access to do this, you should consult the hosting provider and request this task.
Please notice that the mobile theme makes some troubles due to WP Super Cache plugin. Also, the WP Super Cache plugin is compatible with the mobile devices, but if you are using the Mobile Theme, please notice that you should make some changes for a better working. This could be a problem from wp super cache and not the browser. If you use the plugin, please use this method to fix the issue:
Use this link and add the customization as marked here: https://github.com/Automattic/wp-super-cache/pull/185/files
Edit wp-cache-phase1.php and add the green code from the right column as it shows there. Otherwise, if you do not want to make these changes you should simply disable the mobile theme until the WP Super Cache plugin will be updated.
For more information about our mobile theme, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Scottseol,
Please keep in mind that our theme has two mobile design -> the mobile responsive and the mobile theme plugin. The mobile responsive will display the same desktop layout but it was optimized for tablets and mobile devices. The second one is Mobile Theme and for more information about this concept, please consult here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/

Hi,
I have activated the mobile theme, but now I can’t see my pages… How can I fix it?
Hello fellas,
Just trying to make Newspaper theme 8 abit more useful :). I’m delivering a short post to all the fellas who are still trying to somehow rank their website, hope it helps.
1. The Title on top of page is already H1 Title, so don’t include H1 tags in your post. Instead, use H2 tags, these will appear as Site Links in SERPS. Here are just two of my posts that appeared on Google:
2. Don’t fall for green light for Yoast, it’s a stupid (yes!) for keywords. Use your imagination, google already uses synonyms if you have ever done a google search yourself. Instead of stuffing up your article with keywords, focus on content and mix up keywords variation.
3. Disable Yoast auto stop keyword stripping. It’s a dumb feature again. Say you have a post- How to download video, it will detect to and remove it automatically. Disable it under Yoast>Advanced>Permalinks>Clean up permalinks>Keep Stop Words in Slug.
4. Use Excerpts as a different version of your meta description. Don’t underestimate the power of them, they are not jsut useful to your readers on your site, but also useful to Search Engine Bots. Use them wisely to add secondary meta description.
5. Image- I would recommend you optimize the image size first before uploading it. Name the file with your keywords before uploading to WordPress and add Alt tags, Title and Description to it. Sometimes, images rank better in Google if optimized correctly and they can help you beat up the top ranking posts. Use Wp-Smush also.
6. Use External Links plugin to disable free juice passing from your website to other sites. Use it globally to keep the Search engines to crawling your website only. You don’t want to send cream to other sites, do you?
7. Do constant interlinking, it’s part of super seo!
8. Use cornerstone articles from Yoast wisely. These can actually help you rank better some of your very important posts. I am currently targeting three posts to test it out.
9. If you want to reduce bounce rate, try Inline Related Posts plugin. It’s superb to show related posts inside your post.
10. Disable Jetpack breadcrumbs. I am still testing it though, but they were kind of messing up with Newspaper default breadcrumbs.
11. Remove Websites under comments, a Website tab will just confuse users and will also add to spam. To disable it, simply add code below in your theme functions and also mobile theme functions:
add_filter('comment_form_default_fields', 'website_remove');
function website_remove($fields)
{
if(isset($fields['url']))
unset($fields['url']);
return $fields;
}
I hope it helps, will try to update the guide as much as i can though. Do help me with it if you also want to help others. You can follow me here: https://medicforyou.in
And be sure to check my other guide too on forums: Speedify your Newspaper Blog
Hi,
That could be a possibility in a future update, but I could not say for sure when this will happen. It is up to the developers however to decide what gets implemented as soon as possible and what is postponed, from the list of suggestions and recommendations. In the meantime you will have to make the modifications in the mobile theme files directly.
Thanks
