Hi There,
Installed Newsmag a few weeks back. Looks great on desktop but breaks on mobile (Iphone 4S and samsung galaxy). I’ve just taken this site over, so it may be an issue with legacy plugins but I was wondering if you could have a quick look.
I can get to a responsive version of the site by going to “view full site”down at the bottom. I’ve gone into the theme/template settings and can’t see anything in there and have tried turning off all non relevant plugins (but I’m not 100% on which were included/recommended with the theme.)
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
Angie
Also, btw I seriously love this theme!!
Hello,
Unfortunately this is the case with blocks that display the full screen image on mobile. It was a choice made by the developers to improve loading speed and avoid creating an exaggerated number of thumbnails. You could override this functionality by forcing the block to use the full image by editing the theme code but then the page speed would greatly be affected. You can find the code for the block 3 here: http://screencast.com/t/Y7MngT46sL7m
You can see all the thumbnails our theme uses here: http://screencast.com/t/nklxPLxCd
You can edit the first file and select another thumbnail for it (replace the thumbnail with another thumb name) so the mobile version will have more quality, but it will need a few more css adjustments for it to work.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello,
I understand what you mean now, and there is a an explanation for it.The featured image uses a thumbnail while images inserted into a post use the full size. So when compressed on a mobile phone, the difference will be visible between a full size image ex: 1920×1080 and the thumb used by the theme for featured image which has a size of 696×0. This choice was made for pagespeed. You can override this thumbnail if you want by editing the theme files. You need to edit the template you use. Every post template has a separate file corresponding to it:
http://screencast.com/t/YBaK9ToiDFm Inside these files you will find the code used for image and the thumbnail: http://screencast.com/t/irKCRL3Qm You siumply need to change the td_696x0 to full and then the full image will be used for the featured image.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hi!
On iPad, I’m only able to press links in the sub menu. The parent links, “Start” “Sport” etc doesn’t work on iPad. Theme works well on iPhone and computer.

(Simulator like http://mobiletest.me works fine but not on a real iPad.)
Thanks
Before I added Google Ads, my pagespeed was incredibly close to 90+, flunctuating between 85-90 then on Mobile was just a measly 65-75
Not too bad for now. How did I accomplish it.
1. Bulk Optimize your images with EWWW Image optimizer.
2. Use the regenerate thumbnail plugin to regenerate your thumbnails so that they can fit properly in the blocks.
CSS Minification made easy.
3. Go to GTMetrix and Analyse your URL.
4. You should see a Minify CSS followed by a percentage. Click on it to see more of the recommendation.
5. You will see your theme’s style.css in my case it was /…/Newspaper/style.css?ver=6.6
6. Click on see optimized version. It will open in a new tab with your CSS minified.
7. You select all ( Ctrl+A) and Copy (ctrl+C) then go to your theme editor (ie Appearance> Editor) in WordPress. then your style.css, you select all again and Paste (Ctrl+V).
That is it!.
This is just my way of giving back to everyone here that finds time to answer my silly questions and help me out in their little ways. Tagdiv support team, you guys rock, and Chris S as well.
Oh, and my site, Factwide, is proudly Tagdiv Newspaper!.
Hello fettbauch,
Please make you sure that you refer to the Module 4 on category page. I’ve tested on my side with M4 on category page and on mobile version and all the images are full width. You can look here the result: http://screencast.com/t/YOckkOZnDJ – http://screencast.com/t/XOg979wWD .
Please try to disable all the active plugins, except Visual Composer and install only the plugins that come bundle with our theme, clear all your caches and test it again. If you problem is still there, please provide your URL website so I can inspect it closer.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
Regarding the images and jetpack, absolutely do not use the photon feature of jetpack. I know jetpack is tested to work with our theme but not all of it’s features work. Jetpack has lots of features and some of these create problems with our theme. The 2 known to cause problems are the jetpack mobile theme and the photon option.
Do not use these 2 options and it should work fine. (if no server-side issues are found that is)
Thank you!
Good morning TagDIV
I bought the newspaper theme, and I’m very pleased with the design and the ease configuration
congratulations
However, I realized that there is a limit on the logo size that is 90px
I would like to change the logo size to 187x150px
which is the size of the logo of my website. it is possible?
my theme is the default – theme 1
1 – however I would only be changed to the desktop
for other devices (mobile, tablet, etc.), were not changed the size of the logo
remaining without alteration
changing the size of the logo?
2 – how to insert an effect “fade” in my logo,
for when I hovering the mouse over my logo, becomes transparent / opaque
thank you so much

Hi
You could try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/MK9OPhow Like this the quotes will have a full width on mobile devices:
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-post-content .td_box_right{
width: 100%!important;
}
}
Let us know how it goes and if this is not what you mean please provide more details.
Thanks!
Hi,
@Stefan please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin access so we can take a closer look at this, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are and what your issue is.
@Cubewebsolution
The theme has an fixed grid layout, responsive as it is fluid and style for desktop/tables/mobile screens. Changing the grid’s width is not an easy job and you would need lots of custom modifications for it, as you need to change the width value for all elements(blocks/modules) on page. For the moment we don’t plan to do any change to the grid, sorry!
Thanks!
Hello,
I did not recommend using photon at all. I recommended you use jetpack but NOT with the photon feature. So please, NO photon. It does not work with the theme and it will not work in future updates as well unless we change our whole image implementation. Not all features of jetpack are tested. We do know of 2 features that cause problems for certain and should never be used with the theme. One is photon and the other is the mobile theme.
Thank you!
Hello gibbo78,
If you want to align your logo on your mobile device, it is neccesary to use a bit of Css to centrate this. Please try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom Css area like this: http://screencast.com/t/GFSQ0Ii0
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td-main-menu-logo img {
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}
}
The result you should see here: http://screencast.com/t/m0QFP245nk6
Thank you for the message!
and, oh my gosh … it’s still there!
I guess the file names “update_log.txt” and “changed_files_6.5_6.6.1.html” are not specific enough?

NEWSPAPER THEME
Thanks for your support and feel free to contact us any time 🙂
https://forum.tagdiv.com/
~ Radu, Marius, Emil, Alina, Lucian, Nicu G., Alin and Nicu S. ~
[ Version 6.6.1 ]
– new social counter version. Facebook requiers now an API key, read more here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial/
[ Version 6.6 ]
– new: Custom code panel. We realized that all the custom css, html and javascript should be in one panel. We also added a custom HTML code section. All the input areas from this panel have autocomplete (ctrl+space) and error checking.
– new: whatsapp share for article on mobile devices
– new: added http channel test status in the system status panel. You can now check if the theme is able to get the tweet count, like count etc from your host.
– new: filter posts by ID in blocks. You can add/exclude specific posts on all the blocks now.
– new: the theme now has it’s own logging system. We can now debug hosting issues easier.
– new: a new self diagnosting and self configurating module that allows our theme to pull data from other sites more reliably.
– fix: smart list 7 and 8 – sometimes the content was doubled
– fix: g+ new icon
– improvement: video playlist is now more reliable and all the code is loaded only when needed via autoload. The youtube videos information is now collected using just one API call instead of multiple API calls for each videos.
– improvement: speedbooster 4.2 now supports woocommerce better and moves the style.css to the bottom
– improvement: the theme panel works better now when adblock is used
– improvement: all the ajax functionality of the theme is now loaded only when needed
– improvement: better security checks on all the ajax requests
– improvement: html is allowed now in the copyright section of the footer
– improvement: social counter button is clickable on the entire area
– improvement: almost all the javascript code now passes jshint. We still have about 15-20% of the code to refactor to the new standards but with time we will get there.
– improvement: the theme’s data source class can now be overwritten from the child theme
– improvement: all the widgets from the theme are now optimized to work better. The widget_builder class is now deprecated and all the functionality was moved to td_block_widget
– improvement: the video playlist now downloads the videos metadata on render, not on save post. This allows us to use the playlist on the on click demos.
– improvement: the following modules of the theme are loaded on demand now: td_log, td_remote_http, td_remote_video, td_data_source, td_video_support, td_more_article_box, td_page_views, td_review, td_ajax. This means that the theme loads them only when needed. We mesured a 10% faster load time after this tweak.
– fix: theme animations where incompatible with some plugins and the visual composer gallery. The animations still worked but all of them looked a bit strange.
– fix: bug with the demo loader – the dinamic css for a specific demo was still loaded even after the demo was uninstall
– fix: header style 8 top submenu z-index fix
– fix: image aligment issue when using custom article paddings
– fix: the documentation url for demos was wrong in wp-admin
– fix: we updated the ads links to point to the right documentation
– fix: Social counter now shows the followers instead of +1 on google plus. Please update your social counter to see the improvement.
– fix: styling issues with the latest version of BuddyPress
– fix: on rare ocassions with some plugins the theme was emitting warnings in the server logs like: “Catchable fatal error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string”
– fix: error that was showing up in logs when the theme panel was saved

Well.. it makes the site compatible with the AMP protocol. If you read-up on what that is, it’s self explanatory.
It creates a super optimized version of page for mobile which loads at pagepermalink/amp/
I was curious of anybody had tried it yet with TagDiv themes, or just *any* WP website at all?
forgot to include link to plugin in repo:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/amp/
I guess the main thing it does is strip out javascript ?
Not a lot of info out there yet — like in our case running mod_pagespeed would it be necessary?
Hello PatWire,
I’ve checked again your website on mobile and everything works fine. Please provide more information about your issue, so I can be able to provide a more accurate response. Also, please disable all the active plugins, except Visual Composer and install only the plugins that come bundle with our theme. Clear all your caches and purge the CDN file if you use and try again. After this, if your problem is still there, please make a screenshot of this because it is very useful.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you!
Hi,
I cannot provide a solution to add this function without updating the theme.
You can use custom css to change the mobile menu color if you don’t wan to update, please check this topic – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/menu-colour-problem-on-mobile/
Thanks!
Hi,
I just said above that this is not an easy task, the theme has already a mobile version and there is not option to disable it. We have this on our list and we may add some option to enable/disable widgets or the possibility to set a lighter theme for mobiles, or maybe something else. We’re still looking for the best solution.
The Jetpack mobile theme featured will read the content of the page, the theme use shortcodes in content so this is what you will display…shortcodes.
You could use js to detect mobile screens and load different content but you will need custom work for that, the theme hasn’t been designed to use a mobile template.
I suggest to get a professional developer from sites like – http://studio.envato.com/ if you need this as the time doesn’t allow us to provide custom work.
Thanks!
Hello Vladimir,
1) I think you are referring to the responsiveness of the logo on mobile.
You can use this custom css to make it responsive again.
@media(max-width:767px){
.td-header-style-10 .td-logo {
width: 100%!important;
}
}
2)You can change the mobile menu color from the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/9xlJiRSDKR
Thank you!
Hi,
I see you have your menu seated on 3 rows now: http://screencast.com/t/wyamURmfs5I Theme’s menu smart snap feature hasn’t been designed for your menu configuration that’s why you experience this. I can’t provide you a quick fix on this as we have to investigate this but I have placed this issue on top of our todo list so we will fix this as soon as possible. Until then you can use the smart snap feature just on mobiles: http://screencast.com/t/AYTvGOWI
Thanks for reporting this!
My theme version is 6.4. Why I don’t see Mobile Menu option?
Hello,
In order to change the mobile menu color you will need to update your theme to the latest version if you do not have this option in the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/LhLGuzA8U
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
In order to disable the sidebar in the mobile menu you can use custom css:
@media(max-width:767px){
.td-ss-main-sidebar{
display:none!important;
}
}
Note that this code will only work for a sidebar (standard sidebar from widgets area) it will not work for pages that use 2 column visual composer rows.
Thanks.
Hi,
As the theme already has a mobile version the jetpack feature will break the theme functionality on mobiles. You will need custom modifications to implement this and unfortunately we cannot provide custom work at this time and I suggest to get someone to help you with this as it is not so easy, sorry!
Thanks!
Hey there!
First of all I want to express my admiration to the team of authors for this intelligently designed theme. What a great job you did!
I have couple of questions concerning a mobile layout and logo. At this moment we are using Style 10 for the logo. I’ve read somewhere (perhaps in documentation :)) that there is no mobile sized logo for Style 10. Is there an option to fix this with css? Another thing i’d like to ask is how to change mobile menu color (logo is black, so it gets invisible)?
Thanks for your time and consideration,
Vladimir
