Hi,
I have made custom pages using visual composer. But these pages no longer appear in the mobile there. I understand that the mobile theme does not support visual composer.
But is there any way that I show the list of posts from certain category in the mobile pages instead of a blank page.
Hi,
I am testing the mobile theme plugin on my test subdomain.
But while i open the menu, the submenu are not appearing in the mobile.
site: http://www.harishzone.com/test
Notice that “Bollywood” and “SouthZone” has sub menu in desktop, but in mobile it does not appear.
Hi,
At the moment we did not move anything unless the user chooses to. You can deactivate the mobile theme if it will affect your ads. Unfortunately the mobile theme will have it’s own ads separate from the desktop version.
Sorry for the inconvenience. We cannot say exactly what the future will bring with this mobile theme as we just launched it but we are optimistic it will become a powerful tool.
Thank you!
Update: I think I understand what has happened, because i have activate “mobile theme” showing for some reason the mobile version as the primary. There is no way to work with normal theme & mobile
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and found a js error which breaks search feature on mobile devices: http://screencast.com/t/xs7hTuArn
Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, deactivate the child theme, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test again.
Thanks!
The responsiveness in Version 7 works fine on Retina and mobile displays. But on non HD desktops and laptops, the mobile version is displayed. I have tried with both mobile theme and without mobile theme. Is there a way to resolve this?
Hi,
I have checked your site and the privacy poilicy works as expected. If you use the mobile theme, please note that using visual composer will not work anymore on this theme as visual composer was removed for the mobile theme in order to get better speeds. Please use the secondarry mce editor that appears on every page to create your pages for mobile without the use of visual composer.

Thank you!
Hi,
The mobile theme will not show the elements on the desktop by default. It consists of 2 elements, a big grid that shows featured posts (they must belong to the predefined ‘featured’ category) and a latest articles section where your latest posts are shown. It;s pretty much like a category archive in order to get maximum page speed on mobile devices. It does not use visual composer at all.
Please make sure you have posts on your site so it has posts to display. (your site has no ‘posts’ only instagram widgets)
You can read more about the mobile theme here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you
Hi there,
First of all, please accept my apologies all of these.
Please allow me to ask a few things about customization of the new Newspaper version 7.0.
1. Since I am doing some customization on my site and based on what I had read on the documentation and on your rules that any update of the Theme we should try again to re-implement the code for our customization, so I decided instead of doing that again and again is to add the Child Theme, that any update of the Theme still the customization of site will be there right? Please advise if this the best option? Hope it will.
2. (If Serial 1 is not the best option, leave this.) Please advise if this is correct to Add a Child Theme via FTP I will just add the Folder “Newspaper-child” located in /code folder? base on this Tutorial Link to add it under “wp-content/themes” right? by just dragging it via FTP? same on this Image Link.
3. Author Box Card replace it with USERPRO shortcode.
Filename:
/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/loop-single-12.php – this is my style number
ShortCode to add:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>

<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_next_prev_posts();?>
<?php echo do_shortcode('[userpro template=card user=author]');?>
<?php echo $td_mod_single->get_item_scope_meta();?>
</footer>
3.a. If I am using a Child Theme I just copy the Filename then create a directory structure path in the child theme as in the theme and paste the Filename based on this Tutorial Link aight?
4. Sign In/Join Desktop view popup version using USERPRO shortcode
Filename: wp-content/themes/Newspaper/parts/header/top-menu.php
ShortCode to add:

6.a. Same on Serial 3.a. question.
7. If there is a new update of the Theme like for example: header.php as we added a Custom Code on version 6.x.x has 92 Lines + 2 Lines on our Custom Code both on Main Theme and Child Theme then a new update came version 7.0 header.php has 98 Lines, since our Child Theme had originally 92 Lines, are we going to update also our Child Theme structure based on the latest one from 92 Lines to 98 Lines then + 2 Lines on our Custom code?
8. Mobile Theme Plugin – if I install this plugin would the Child Theme modification will reflect to this? I mean I made changes in Serial 3, 5 and 6 will it reflect also? Please advise.
8.a. Whats the difference between Theme Panel background color for mobile vs Mobile Theme Plugin Settings background color? Which one should I make the changes if this Plugin is installed?
8.b. Gradient color – may I ask the exact hex number of this color? Link Here
9. Am I allowed to create directory structure and add the following filename on the Child Theme incase all of the above are possible to my site.
>loop-single-12.php
>top-menu.php
>For Serial 5 filename
>header.php
I have sent my Login Credentials via mail incase you may need it with the same Subject here.
Regards

How do I adjust the way Category articles are displayed in the Mobile theme? At the moment, it gives me the first three articles one on top of the other, and then other articles list below that? All I want it to do is list the articles in the same way the front/home page of the mobile theme does? Can;t find any settings for it…
Or, at the very least, just one featured image at the top like the front page of the mobile theme.
Thanks,
John
Hello sumi,
I have checked your website and I saw that your image was displayed right on mobile, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/ylXV9t3olh7 Try to clear all your caches and test it again. For more information about our mobile theme, please check the documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
If is not what you mean, please provide more details.
Thank you for your message!
Hello fajrialhadi,
Please notice that the mobile theme plugin come bundled with our theme and you can enable this from Plugins section, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/EmXHpC3XK6 For more information about our new feature, please check the documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you for your understanding!
Yes I understand – please don’t get me wrong I’m a massive fan of the theme – but things are moving on – I’m just thinking of the future development of Newspaper – mobile is the way forward – AMP/FB Instant etc – so a mobile site must be as close as possible to instant, clearly it can’t be instant but it does need 2 seconds max in load time. Newspaper 7 mobile therefore is a great thing.
However for a news outlet with a large following/visitors, it’s pointless investing in lots of blocks and widgets on a sophisticated home page, so though I still use the theme I’ve stripped it back to basically a roll of articles with one grid and one block. Others will do the same, and all of then sell their own ads on these sites and so need the flexibility.
Recently AdRotate’s author planned to remove mobile ads (except Google type) from his plugin settings, there were so many people begging him not to for this reason that he left it the same so sold ads could appear. If a site owner has developed an inventory of ad positions and prices over two years, he/she then can’t just change these positions when people may have paid for a year or so. It would be the right thing to develop this so a site owner can switch the same options on for the mobile theme if he/she needs them, it can’t be that difficult to do and will keep customers with Newspaper 7+
Thanks
Hello kosashi777,
In order to display this widget in your mobile view, please check the theme panel and ensure that this option is enabled from there, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/0sIbBtjs Also, if your problem is still there, please check your console and see if you have some js errors through it. Please try to disable all your untested plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all your caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
For more information about this, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/login-how-to-enable-user-registration/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks.
Hi,
Unfortunately the mobile theme is different from the main theme so the ad spots are different as well. You cannot keep the desktop ad spots on mobile unfortunately.
Thank you!
Hello,
The ads for the mobile theme have to be inserted in the designated ad spots here: http://screencast.com/t/tk6chiBbQGM5 (just the ad code not a visual composer shortcode)
Newsmag will get updated as well, there is no doubt about it. We always try to improve our themes as much as we can, but we are still a small team and we cannot update 2 themes at the same time unfortunately.
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi,
The sorting option was added inside the code for these grids so there are no filtering settings for the mobile theme at the moment. It’s the first version we released of theis theme and options are still limited at the moment. It will be improved in the future though. If you want to have a different sorting option you will have to edit the mobile theme files here: http://screencast.com/t/PLevMLHRhI0
Hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hi,
I just updated to Newspaper 7 and everything worked fine. I also installed the mobile plugin, a great plugin by the way, however after few hours, i started to see mobile version on desktop using internet explorer and google chrome. also on my mobile, I started to see desktop version of homepage.
After investigation, I arrived to the conclusion that it is a caching issue.
First I paused cloudflare and kept only w3 total cache. the problem was not resolved.
Then I used user agents to passthrough but the problem is still there.
Anyone can help please.
my site is http://www.midronepro.com
Hello all,
@ankush, please notice that the mobile theme does not render the Visual Composer shortcode for your blocks from your pages but only the text with the Big Grid and Related articles will be displayed for your frontend in mobile theme. This is not an issue, this is just the mobile theme behaviour. For more information about this case, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
P.S. If you need the further assistance in this regard, please create another topic and tell there the problem for avoiding the confusions from this topic!
@Bintmusic, unfortunately, this is not the right behaviour for your mobile theme. Please notice that this plugin will display you by default a Big Grid and related articles because this is the template structure implemented. Please check your plugins list and try to disable all of them which are not tested with our theme because it could create a lot of unknown issues in this regard and leave just our untested plugins. Clear all your caches and check the results. Also, please notice that the Big Grid display all the posts which are in Featured Category. Please check this category and add there some posts which you want to be displayed on your theme mobile. ->> http://screencast.com/t/CPmP3tlkuCo
For your second problem, if you are referring to the Related Posts for Post page and also Related articles, indeed is a mini-bug and we will solve it as soon as possible in next future update.
P.S If you need the further assistance in this regard, please create another topic.
@Ardhi, unfortunately, this is the actual functionality of our mobile theme. Maybe in the future updates, we will develop this plugin and we try to implement new improvements but we cannot say for sure when it will be. Thank you for your suggestions. If you have a lot of pages and if you want to display all your content from these pages for mobile mode, you can to disable the mobile theme plugin. It is just your choice.
Thanks.

See.. mobile theme isn’t displaying the things showing on desktop. Plz help me resolve this.
I can not figure this out. I have deactivated every plug-in, deleted a few plugins permanently and still have a few final issues to sort out.
There is a mobile menu appearing on desktop above rest of site and no mobile menu on mobile size. I am not using the new mobile theme plug-in. I tried it – it didn’t make a difference.
I also have the site title appearing underneath the logo.
Lastly there is a new search icon below the one in the main menu that does not do anything.
Hello TagDiv,
First of all I would like to convey my thanks for providing the Mobile Theme. It’s really very much helpful for everyone who loves to load faster the contents and all.
I would like to request some suggestion’s based upon my testing:
1) I think the related articles on the mobile theme for each post/article is not working properly. As of now I’m interested to list ‘Related Articles’ based upon the ‘tags’ which i used within the article/post.
2) On Mozilla browser (Smart Phone) their is some delay in loading the menu background. Hope you’ll check it.
Desktop error:
1) As on: Theme Panel > Footer > Sub Footer settings > Footer Copyright text
When we add 2016 Website Name within the provided box and after some days the is removing automatically and 2016 Website Name will only be presented within their.
Hope you’ll go through my findings.
Thanks!
