Hello,
anyone created an app for newspaper8 theme.
It is fantastic theme. It is already mobile responsive.
I just wanna serve it in android and ios market as an app.
Has anyone created one?
Also,
push notification. How can we do push notification for newspaper8
Maybe Newspaper8 team can provide us a solution for this.
Thanks in advance
Thank you Simion, unfortunately that display articles way too old .
I inserted categories id’s and random posts, it seems to work.
Perhaps, the team could look into providing more customisation options for mobile as majority of sites are focusing on mobile usage, it’d be nice to see more options to customise mobile front page
Hi,
The mobile theme will most likely not render that shortcode, it is not meant to. It will not interpret page builder shortcodes as well.
If you want to use the mobile theme and also display a header ad, you will have to use a different implementation for the ad on mobile devices, instead of the shortcode. You could simply paste a HTML link with image in the ad section

Hi.
I modified module_14 in order to have the category tag show on mobile
@media (max-width: 767px)
.td_module_14 .td-post-category {
display: all;
}
In mobile view (small portrait phone) the category tag shows, but it doesn’t align with the heading. Can you supply a css fix?
The site is wefrb.easysite.dk, front page, first block, responsive portrait phone.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
Best regards from Lars
Thank you, all so much I went to jetpack and turned off mobile theme, and just like that i was back on mobile devices again!!!! You guy are the best thank you, thank you!!!!
Hi, the mobile theme for my site is only showing 3 posts. I understand it is supposed to show 6 posts. What could be the problem?
I found the problem, when I disable the “tagDiv Mobile Theme” plugin everything works fine, but I will not have all specific configurations for the mobile version, without this plugin.
Hi,
Indeed it seems that on mobile devices nothing is displayed, the page is blank. I suggest to check if the jetpack mobile theme module is somehow enabled, in the plugin settings. Try to disable it if active.
Thanks
P.S. I would like to know is there any way to do this: I would like to put background photo (as a AD) on desktop version (without header photo), and this header photo in header for mobile version, is that possible? Thanks!
Thank you for your reply..
This is URL of my website: http://herca.com.hr/
Here is screenshot of the website from ‘desktop’ (photo that i want to be responsive for mobile is in header.) : https://s17.postimg.org/cpfgznj4v/image.jpg
Here is screenshot of the webisite from mobile phone, as you can see my header photo is not fully, is not responsive : https://s17.postimg.org/z1d9t37z3/image.jpg
I don’t know how to fix that, I hope you can help or at least give me some tutorial. 🙂
Thank you in advance! 🙂

Hi,
The top menu is not displayed on mobile by default, it could be made visible if absolutely required, with custom code (only when then mobile theme plugin is not active). It will be the same top menu from desktop, not a different menu.
Regarding the search icon positioning, I could give you a code to make it display for example next to the menu
– https://www.screencast.com/t/qyORyGNiR1f1
This is the code used for that, it must be entered in Theme panel->Advanced CSS in the phones section
.header-search-wrap {
left:54px;
right:auto;
}
Or you can move it to the right as you wanted (use the value you want in the code)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6pqX6Way
.header-search-wrap {
right: 60px;
}
These codes must be entered in the location I mentioned above, so they will apply only on mobile.
Thanks
Hi,
The font size on mobile is predefined, it is meant as a limit in case users are setting a higher font size. It will be reduced to 32px or enlarged if it is of a lower size. The limit works both ways.
What you could do is to use a code like this one, to make the font smaller on mobile devices
@media (max-width: 1018px) {
.td-post-header header .entry-title {
font-size: 20px!important;
}}
This code can be entered in Theme panel->Custom CSS section.
Thanks
Hello Mercuriel,
Indeed, your header ad on mobile seems to be incorrectly displayed but I do not know the cause of it, sorry! I saw that you are using a lot of untested plugins which can interact with the core files and causes a lot of unknown issues. Try to disable all of these, remove all of the additional customizations if you are using something like this, clear all the caches and check the results. Check our demo review on mobile and there you will see that the header and is centered as expected.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
That is the mobile theme version of the website, you have activated the mobile plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Note that the mobile theme plugin is optional, you can simply deactivate it. Then the same content from desktop will be displayed on mobile devices.
Thanks

- All In One WP Security (simple wp security for your website)
- Contact Form 7 (i have never used it, but yeah it might be handy)
- Envato Market (to keep your theme updated with Newspaper directly)
- External Links (super seo plugin, automatically prevents any external link from passing juice of your website to another for google ranking)
- GTmetrix for WordPress (checks page speed directly from plugin here)
- Heartbeat Control (ignore if you are not moderately good with tech. This one removes a lot of load from your cpanel of hosting)
- Inline Related Posts (adds beautiful in-line related posts automatically by extracting from tags and categories)
- Jetpack by WordPress.com (obvious)
- Mashshare Share Buttons (kinda good, especially has ability to add fake number of shares)
- OneSignal Push Notifications (a must get app! sends notification to mobile as well desktop users that you have published a post, just get this one)
- Regenerate Thumbnails (obvious)

Apart from that, please do add free SSL certificate by Cloudfare, and setup free CDN by Cloudfare for your website. It boosts speed you will love to see.

Hello @michele-jolie , have you tried using Mobile Plugin provided with the theme? Indeed your page is blank on mobile phones. Apart from that, i assume you are already using
Apart from that, some basics you should try for your website:
1. Try installing a demo from theme panel, in your case, you should try Cooking demo- https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_recipes/ . Just have a look. You can find other demos here- https://demo.tagdiv.com/select_demo/select_demo_newspaper .
2. Go for Free CDN by Cloudfare, that will boost speed of your website a lot and is pretty good.
3. Add SSL Certificate to your website, it will show users that your website is safe and again, is pretty neat.
4. Explore post types in theme, they are pretty good and worth exploring.
5. Try reading how to set up homepage here- https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ .
6. Basic plugins must get for WordPress- Akismet-anti spam, External Links, Jetpack, Regenerate thumbnails, WP Smush, Wp-Super Cache and Yoast ofcourse.
Good luck with blogging. You can check mine here- https://medicforyou.in . Feel free to ask for anything. 🙂
Hi,
The theme package provides a mobile theme plugin, this is optional. If you decide to install and activate it, you can select a menu to be used specifically for it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/uHA3oBKvJ
You can find out more about this plugin functionality here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
As I mentioned this is optional. When it is not active, the mobile version is created using the theme responsive design. The same elements from desktop will be displayed on mobile devices, including the menu.
If this is not what you wanted to know, please try to provide some more details for a better understanding.
Thanks
Hello,
I just updated the newspaper theme from an older version 7.4 to the latest one, I created a new folder for that with a different name (newspaper1) and uploaded the new theme there, then activated. All good expect when I checked the website on my mobile I got this error right below the main menu and blocks are not showing :
Fatal error: Call to undefined method vc_row::set_font_settings() in /home4/u5k5z9h5/public_html/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/includes/tdc_composer_block.php on line 36
Desktop version works fine.
I tried to disactivate the tag div composer plugin but the error is still there.
Thanks
Hi again, apologies for all the messages but just letting you know that, for the time being, I have disabled .backstretch on my mobile website and replaced it with the following code:
@media screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.td-lifestyle {
background-size: auto;
background-attachment: scroll;
background-repeat: repeat;
background-image: url(https://www.syrupbee.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Background-light-grey-e1517274658925.jpg);
background-position: center center;
}
}
This may be an adequate compromise, though it would still be nice finding a way to fix this initial scroll error so I can go back to using my original image that displays on the desktop version of my website.
Thanks,
Chris
Hello I am setting up an big network for a multisite. I read the post about adding a top menu on mobile view and tried it and works. My problem is that it looks tacky. MY question is if you can move the search icon on mobile view on the default layout without the mobile plugin or with it as well, To move the search icon to the left a little so I can insert another menu next to it so that I can use that space for navigation to parent sites. example. site 1,2,3,4,5,6. because as of now you can only do it by making the menu on the main page but then it loos off and then if you put a topbar it doesn’t show on mobile without the plugin
Moreover, I checked my iPhone and every ad on there (not just the header ad) is not central and is off-skew towards the right being sometimes cut off.
I also checked https://ready.mobi/#587252-mx7w which displays the ads in the same way on mobile devices.
I’m trying to use a shortcode that was declared on my functions.php but it only works on desktop version.
The shortcode shows an ad on the header.
Can someone tell me how can I do it correctly?


Hi Catalin, thank you.
On your screenshot my header ad is not centralised, it is cut off a bit on the right. That is how it appears on my end too. Is there a way to make the header ad cental on mobiles?
Thanks,
Chris
