Hi,
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an option for this, you will need custom modifications to disable mobile version as the Newspaper theme was designed with an fixed grid layout, responsive as it is fluid and style for desktop/tables/mobile screens. You can edit the style.css file and try to remove the @media queries for phone or/and tablets.
Thanks!
Not sure if this is a bug or what, but after upgrading my Newspaper theme from v4 to v6, I’m noticing that mobile ads are showing up on Desktop.
I went back and checked my theme options, and the “DISABLE ON DESKTOP” options are flipped on.
This poses a problem because one of my networks strictly forbids mobile ads from showing up on desktop, so instead of an ad, you see a huge blank space where a 300×250 mobile ad is supposed to be.
What can be done to fix this? I’ve disabled mobile ads for now but I’d love to be able to turn them back on ASAP so we don’t miss out on too much mobile revenue.
Hello,
I have a problem with the mobile version of the theme. While by the Newspaper 4 all was ok, by the Newspaper 6 I cant see the whole block (here Big Grid 2- see the top of my site). Can someone tell me how to fix it?
Thanks!
Hi,
I’ve been searching the forums but cannot find a solution to a few issues I have with the slider on my homepage on htt://www.hisoverhers.com
1) On the top left-hand coerner the category name is displayed in a red box and in front there is a shaded/dark grey box with no text. I have noticed that on review posts that box contains the stars given for that review. I only want that shaded/dark grey box to appear on review posts, if possible, or otherwise not to appear at all.
2) I want my slider to look like the one in your demo. With big visible arrows and the text inside the image and not starting outside of the image. Right now the arrows are tiny and on the edges of the slider.
3) In your demo the slider works well in mobile. But when I open my site the post tittle font is huge and does not resize. The result is that text is not displayed properly and the slider looks awful on mobile.
Thanks!
I know i can change colors at theme colors, but the options are only for desktop. How can i change the header color from black to white at default theme?
Hi,
@Crabouille I have added this issue with top menu on our to do list and it will be fixed as soon as possible.
Unfortunately theme doesn’t have an option to change mobile menu background but you can do it using custom css – http://screencast.com/t/7YBJ8ESckz9
@media(max-width: 767px) {
.td-header-wrap.td-header-style-12 .td-header-main-menu {
background-color: #4db2ec !important;
}
}
@bestofbristol Do you refer to the mobile menu color?
Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css this it will apply only on header style 5(just remove .td-header-style-5 if you want to apply this on all header styles mobile menu): http://screencast.com/t/tAiO4CbO1Q6
@media(max-width: 767px) {
.td-header-wrap.td-header-style-5 .td-header-main-menu {
background-color: #4db2ec !important;
}
}
Thanks!
I love this theme, one of the best I have used in 10 years publishing WordPress sites. However, it is unusable on mobile – it take minutes to load – as much as 5 minutes.
I am at a loss to understand why. It loads on desktops and tablets fast, but mobile is useless. My only option is to figure out why or abandon the theme in favor of a better designed responsive theme.
Here is the link to our website http://www.DroningSkies.com in contrast to our other website http://www.DroneCyclone.com
DroningSkies.com is the one with the Newsmag theme installed.
It is not using any cache. What appear to be the problem is a script that is loading first.
Any insights are welcome.
Hi,
You have these errors in the console – http://screencast.com/t/aGLY6Hjh2 please check this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active, clear cache and see if you still have this issue with gallery.
Unfortunately this delay usually happens when speed booster is used as the css and js are moved at the bottom of the page structure, so that the page will load faster. That’s why the theme’s default style appears first then changes, because of the cascading property of css. To avoid this you could try to make the changes directly into theme’s style file.
I also checked your page source and those css resources are moved to the bottom, you also can check – http://screencast.com/t/vkHNjMZu only jetpack sharing css is not moved – http://screencast.com/t/YGTYW5v11oxY Try to move also that css and see if you still have this issue when you test pagespeed on mobile.
Thanks!
Hi,
You can try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css to change the thumb display on mobile form module 8 – http://screencast.com/t/ewsF96VpIk
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td_mod8 .item-details {
margin-left: 0px !important;
top: 15px !important;
}
.td_mod8 .thumb-wrap img {
max-height: 100%;
max-width: 100%;
width: 100%;
position: relative;
}
}If you want to apply this only on your homepage just add .home class – .home .td_mod8 .item-details and .home .td_mod8 .thumb-wrap img
Hope this helps!
Why would the theme have anything to do with URLs posted on Facebook ?
The theme has nothing to do with how URLs are parsed. Meaning, if the URL you share to FB is correct and actually works, and somebody clicks that link – it will work if the site is accessible.
That is handled by your DNS, web server, and the ISP being able to resolve the DNS pointing at the IP where your website is hosted.
It might be a setting you have for Android users, or it may be that the caching of your CSS is mismatched on server and some android users or chrome users where chrome caches websites, is loading old CSS and not the new CSS and page will not load properly.
In those cases you need to clear server cache quite completely, where applicable; and a visitor who has a browser which doesn’t reload the CSS properly would need to hit “refresh” in their mobile browser to get the new CSS.
Sometimes you can force this by setting a very short TTL just for the CSS, like one hour, and let it be that way for a week — bad for pagespeed, but can “force” some browsers to make sure they only see new site CSS.
Might not be your issues; just a thought 🙂
Just installed the theme, everything was fine but i noticed something very strange. Some users can’t access the site when they click at links posted at my Facebook Page. I’ve noticed that the majority of them are using Android Phones. Since 80% of My traffic comes from Facebook and mobile, i deactivated the theme
Hi,
the past few days I was busy getting the performance up and running without plugins (and doing not too bad so far).
But it seems that something messed up the slider display, photos are enlarged and the actual slider is not visible. And I can’t figure out what is causing this. Also the images show a darkened bottom, any chance to remove this ?
Since I’m here google pagespeed annoys with should fix this for mobiles (but not for desktop!):
Optimize CSS Delivery of the following:
http://www.dinckol.com/…-content/plugins/jetpack/css/jetpack.css
http://www.dinckol.com/…cons/genericons/genericons.css?ver=1.7.1
http://www.dinckol.com/…themes/Newsmag-child/style.css?ver=1.7.1
http://www.dinckol.com/wp-content/themes/Newsmag/style.css
I understand from what I have read so far the theme css’ hast to be loaded at top. Once you open my page you will see nonetheless a brief delay the style gets applied. any suggestions to improve mobile speed and visual experience?
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately Newsmag theme was initially designed at this width – 1021px – with an fixed grid layout, responsive as it is fluid and style for desktop/tables/mobile screens. So changing the width would not be easy as it needs changing the width value for all elements on pages and for this you would need custom work. I suggest to hire a freelancer to do this for you as we cannot provide any type of custom work at this time because we work hard on development, updates and support.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately theme doesn’t have an option to change header ad position on mobile. A solution could be to disable header ad on mobile, use a custom ad bellow the menu for header style that you use(edit header.php file and use do_shortcode function) – http://screencast.com/t/PpSNXg2mbCII off course enable this custom ad for mobile from Theme Panel.
echo do_shortcode('[td_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');
Result: http://screencast.com/t/ySMAR0Jp78IF
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the header style 3(also header 6) use the same logo image also on mobile, you don’t have to upload a mobile logo. All header styles will be changed in Newspaper 5.
Until then you can try to make this change in menu-header.php file – http://screencast.com/t/2S3dTDOoo8u and now you can upload mobile logo – http://screencast.com/t/tMwGGtAbIOh this will be used on mobile devices.
You can activate the theme also when it will be moved on final domain. If you want to use it on multiple sites/domains you’d have to buy a license for each project.
Thanks!
Hello, I´m working in a new wordpress web with your newspaper theme and I have used The Header Style 3 – (full width logo) + menu; all is ok but I have a problem with the version of the logo for mobile. I’ve uploaded another file to use like logo in the mobile version but this does not work and continue with the normal logo instead of the mobile version.
This is the url http://palmvit.net/vitaepalm.htm
Another question, to develop the web I am using a provisional domain “palmvit.net”, when the web is finished will be another domain “palmvit.com”. I hope there is no problem with the registration and activation code, Now I have activated the theme in the domain “palmvit.net” but the final domain will be “palmvit.com”.
Best regards!
Is there a way I can make the pageviews, that are built into the theme, show when viewing a single post on mobile?
My website is SportsMockery(dot)com if you can assist.
Thanks in advance.

Hi guys, I was wondering if you guys could help me..
I have this shortcode inserted at the bottom of my page.
http://thecoffeebreak.co/finance/8-paid-jobs-you-can-do-without-a-college-degree/
[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_2"]
[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]
Custom Ad 2 is adsense responsive and shows up perfectly on phones and tablets.
Custom Ad 1 is enabled only for Desktop with the leaderboard 728*90 (which doesn’t fit inside a post)
What I’m trying to do now is to have for desktop (Custom Ad 1) a custom adsense size of 650*90.
However if I do…
Option 1
Put my custom adsense code in a shortcode, it cant be disabled for tablets and mobiles. So this option doesn’t work
Option 2 (which almost worked)
I used the specific div class for each device resolutions.
<div class=”td-visible-desktop”> <—- does not show up on mobile, however shows up on tablet landscape
[cta id=”645″ vid=”1″]
</div>
<div class=”td-visible-tablet-l”> <—- shows up on mobile, desktop and mobile
123test
</div>
<div class=”td-visible-tablet-tp”> <—- shows up on mobile, desktop and mobile
test123
</div>
<div class=”td-visible-phone”> <—- This one worked flawlesly
test mobile
</div>
Option 3
Simply play with the CSS and change the width of the post area.. however the theme then looks ugly.
Right now…
I reverted back to <div class=”td-visible-desktop”> with an Ad size unit of 650*90 custom ad block 1 and responsive adsense ad for custom ad block 2 for mobile but I’m missing out on Tablet traffic.
any solutions? (please! I don’t to go back to newspaper, I just switched over to this theme today and omg) 🙂

Hi,
Unfortunately Newsmag theme was initially designed at this width – 1021px – with an fixed grid layout, responsive as it is fluid and style for desktop/tables/mobile screens. So changing the width would not be easy as it needs changing the width value for all elements on pages and for this you would need custom work. Also on pages you can use full width row to display your add your banner/ad – http://screencast.com/t/0c0sCetT
If you have basic css/html experience and you want to do this for post pages please check this topic, but you may need additional customziations – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/728-x-90px-ads-in-article-inline-ads/#post-43914
I’m not sure what you want to do with thumbnails, you can try to add on your page only blocks that use the same size for thumbnails – you can see here thumbs size on blocks to make an idea – http://screencast.com/t/pgn9npc915B
Also if you want to change the thumb size for a block/module here you can find the code – http://screencast.com/t/Pvy1eMnun if you make any change here please regenerate thumbnails using – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ Please note that if you create a new thumb there you have to change it also in the module file, for example – http://screencast.com/t/Ns1kn4ECxVNk

Hi,
If you use Jetpack please disable mobile version – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-manage-the-mobile-theme/
Also you can check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer and clear cache.
You can activate the theme also on your test site and when you change to your main website you can use the same code. Envato specifies that each theme can be used for one product (site): http://themeforest.net/licenses/standard but you can use on multiple test sites. If you want to use it on multiple sites/domains you’d have to buy a license for each project.
Thanks!
Hello,
Mainly we bought this theme for the optimization and loading speed.
But after installing the result is very poor, PageSpeed shows 63/100 in mobiles, very different than what shows its demo 95/100.
Install the “demo data” and don’t show the images properly.
We are very disappointed with the purchase, any solution? or I can request a refund?
Hi,
Do you use a plugin for mobile version? The theme was designed to be responsive so you don’t need to use a plugin for this. Please disable all plugins and then test your site on mobile friendly, also without any custom modifications for mobiles.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that you have deactivated the mobile option in JetPack, as the theme is already responsive for mobilehttps://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-manage-the-mobile-theme/
Thanks!

Hi,
The top menu was not designed to work on mobile, that’s why it is hidden. But you can use custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css to show it on mobile but you may need additional customizations for menu items that may drop on more rows – http://screencast.com/t/TT9KZLijK7fK
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-header-top-menu {
display: block;
}
}
And also for mobile screen theme has a special menu designed for it – http://screencast.com/t/x18VmP2cg
Thanks!
