Hello.
I see you have suggested disabling the mobile theme and using the responsive theme. I would like to do this on my site.
How do I disable the mobile theme?
A search in this forum did not bring up any instructions, just this post.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
I turn on social icons in both menus, top and footer, I provide link to FB but there are no icon for it. This is the case in browsers. On every breakpoint icon just missing.
On the contrary to this, on mobile, multiple icons appear and FB icon leads to the same page, not to the link that I provided.
This is the link to the site: http://prostorhub.com/solle/
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
We are creating a multisite by using Newspaper 7.5 theme. Everything works great, but the mobile plugin is not working.
Can see this message: The mobile theme path couldn’t be set. Please check if you already have another mobile theme plugin active and disable it (ex. Jetpack Mobile Theme or similar). If you use a cache plugin clear it before checking the results.
Please, Help me to get rid of this.
Thanks!
We had an ad banner full width below the banner across top of all our sites for almost 10 years in Adsense, above the two content columns, with no issues. Even switching to Newspaper then NEwsmag 1.0.
Archive Org; Jan 2015:
https://web.archive.org/web/20160117145517/http://californianewswire.com/calif-assemblyman-gatto-reminds-on-new-laws-for-californians-jan-1-2016/
then we “hid” that above the content banner on mobile devices (phones), per the options in the ad panel (*show desktop, tablet; hide mobile).
So, desktop and tablet got above the fold ads, mobile got bottom of content ads or the sidebar.
Bow with Newsmag 3.1 I’ve just been lazy on the final optimization, due to the Aug 5 server crash, and just loading one ad in the sidebar on all devices; which tucks below on mobile.
So, you just need to “plan” how your ads appear on devices and go TEST them — obviously — .
The theme is compliant; it’s up to you to “engineer” your ad placements to fit your needs.
For example for some folks, not using Adsense, having an ad unit for a movie opening, above the fold on a movie website, might not be crazy.
But obviously, for good UX, you should not have the top half of your iphone view of an article be an ad box; but should show the story title and/or story photo/image.
Food for thought, anyway.
Hello Bogdan B. –
Many thanks for your reply. I have just checked this. I have the latest version from Envato. It is version 7.5. Is that correct? I diabled the tagDiv Mobile Theme in the plugins and it works ok (without the wp booster errors).
Any other ideas?
Many thanks,
Neil.
i have problem with ads code places like body and header also adsense code mobile head
Well the mobile theme does not have a sidebar so the ads will not be shown. As for the ones that are visible, please select a size that is not bigger than the mobile container. Please provide a screenshot of what size you have selected for mobile and a link to your site so we can inspect the ad.
Thank you!
Hello Hamzah,
I have inspected your website and I did not saw the top bar menu active on the desktop so I can make it displaying in mobile view and I cannot provide you a code in this regard, sorry!
Thanks for the message!
Hello ironsea,
I have inspected your website and I saw that your Ad is not responsive and that’s why you cannot see in mobile and tablet view. Notice that the theme only renders the ad code which is added in the Header Ads and do not influence the structure of it. You should contact the Ad provider and request to provide a responsive Ad code. For more information about Ad in our theme, you should consult here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-using-other-ads/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-header-ads/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hello Vegan Flavour,
1)If you want to change the size for your “More Stories” button, you should use a bit of CSS code to do that and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.
.td_ajax_load_more i {
font-size: 20px;
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/TLGCQ0eejeL
2)Try the code below ->
.td-main-content-wrap{
padding-top:0!important;
}
.wpb_content_element{
margin-bottom: 5px;
}
3)Use the code below ->
.td-icon-search{
display:none!important;
}
4) The code will hide the Related Articles on mobile.
@media (max-width:767px){
.td_block_related_posts{
display:none;
}
}
If you want to display more levels in our theme and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hi Bogdan, currently I am using only 1 inline ad (because we can adjust the position of ad with this option). Along with that I am using 2 sidebar ads. These ads are visible only for desktop users and hidden while browsing via mobile. Yes I have used the same options that you marked in the above screenshot.
hello,
If you want to remove the footer, you should only disable it from the theme panel like so: http://screencast.com/t/IsrJtAOLwz
If you use the mobile theme, then you can only remove it with css. Please use this code:
.td-mobile-footer-wrap{
display:none!important;
}
As for the second request please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
The mobile theme will not show visual composer and if you use it on posts, it will show the shortcode and not render it. in this case i suggest disabling the mobile theme plugin and using the standard responsive version of the theme
Thank you!
Hello,
Sorry but i cannot see any tint in the desktop version as well. The mobile theme was not tested with any tint so I cannot say for sure if it will work or not. sorry.
Thanks.
Hi,
This is a simple issue to resolve. Please update your mobile theme plugin and the error will go away. Download the latest theme package from envato and install the mobile theme plugin from there.
Thank you!
Hello newsguru,
Please ensure that you have correctly set your Ads for mobile according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-using-other-ads/
Hope this helps!

Hi,
ok no problem! i have resolved to this simple PHP function that redirect in a service page this old browser:
$ua_check = $_SERVER[‘HTTP_USER_AGENT’];
//results array
$matches_check = [];
//perform regex query
preg_match(‘/Android.*AppleWebKit\/([\d.]+)/’, $ua_check, $matches_check);
//Check if the regex query returned matches specific to
//the android stock browser.
if( isset($matches_check[0]) &&
//This is where we diffrentiate the stock browser from chrome,
//the default browser’s webkit version never goes above 537
( isset($matches_check[1]) && intval($matches_check[1] < 537) ) ){
header(‘location: /old-browser-mobile.html’);
exit;
}

Hello,
I’d like to make a few adjustments to my website, http://www.viraltacos.com
1. For the load more buttons, I need to make the arrow a little bigger and center aligned with “More Stories”. Here is my current CSS:
.td_ajax_load_more {
font-size:15px;
padding: 13px 18px;
}
2. For the category pages, I’m trying to place a full-width banner on the top of the page. However there is padding on both sides and I can’t get it to stretch all the way no matter what I do. Check here: http://viraltacos.com/animals/
3. Disable the search feature, or at the very least remove it from the header (both desktop and mobile). For the desktop header, I need to move the categories to the right to take the place of the search icon; the logo will remain on the left side.
4. Disable the “Related Articles” section on the mobile site. Also if possible, I’d like to have this section full-width (all 3 columns) on the desktop site below the post content and sidebar. Is there an easy solution to this?
Thank you in advance!
Mike
“I would recommend not to use any ad on above the fold for mobile devices.” – This is what I was talking about. If i display above content ad and below content the ads are shown fine on desktop but google says the ad should be after the content. Secondly on mobile they either show up as big square box or take too long space.
Why should i use any other plugin when the theme has got it’s ads system. I believe the theme author should add options to display inline ads after let’s say some number of paragraphs. Let me repeat inline ad code works fine both in desktop and mobile devices.
Hi Nate, I get double that traffic. and we use redis using w3t it works fine. (our cache structure is object cache = redis, database = memcached and the rest apc. and also varnish. it safe us allot of CPU which in wordpress this is what you need when you get a traffic spike. (we also use php7)
BUT! w3t cache is not supported by the theme. We have no issues actually just the Mobile Theme we are not using because it will cause some problems.
I’ve compressed my image sizes so that they will load on mobile, and now one isn’t appearing on my homepage in desktop. I’m also having issues with an HTTP error when uploading images into the media server even though they are less than the memory limit.
Hello Sir,
The problem is the following. I have installed the mobile plugin before a couple days. When I open the site from my smart phone, the first the posts are the same. Please see the screenshot.
https://s4.postimg.org/9spnr3th9/Capture.png
Before installing the mobile plugin was fine. The desktop version is also fine.
Move your ads on mobile to below the fold. Try using plugins like adinserter or adinjection to insert ads. I would recommend not to use any ad on above the fold for mobile devices. Hope this helps. 🙂
I know w3t is not supported or better say being tested. Did anyone find a walk around or fix? I use w3t because I use redis, memcached and varnish as part of my cache layer and w3t makes my life easier. Anybody has a solution? I think they should start supporting this plugin. I mean its like the top 3 plugins out there 🙂
Hope I can find a solution really want to use the mobile theme
The adsense ads are not mobile responsive when we use newspaper. Here is the thread that i posted – https://productforums.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/adsense/quoFGFBxI-U/hjKdi7SXCAAJ
In newspaper only inline content ad is mobile responsive. And the big limitation is we can have only one inline ad. There is no option provided by theme author to add more inline ads (after paragraph 3, 6, 8 etc). If you show the ads above and below content, the banner ads work fine in desktop view. But in mobile they take lot of extra space. Sometimes I get a big ad box in mobile if i place the banner ad above content.
@newspaper team – Can you fix this in next update ?.
