Hi,
Please deactivate all plugins leave just Visual Composer active, empty cache and check if you still have this issue with mobile menu. Also if the issue disappeared please activate your plugins one by one and see which one caused that issue. If you use child theme please also switch to the main theme and check this.
Also please make sure that you use the latest theme version 4.6.3 and update using this guide(FTP method) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ and also update the plugins that come with the theme files from the /plugins folder.
Thanks!

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 query’s for phone. We plan to create/add an option, but I provide a date when this will be implemented.
Thanks!
Hi! After i was done with theme customization and plugin search and setting up, I’v encountered one major problem, page speed with google speed test is 30/100 on desktop and ~20/100 for mobile version.
This is website url for now (testing domain)
http://twist.purespace.eu/
Can anyone help me get this speed up?
I’v instaled w3 cache and tagDiv speed plugin, they are live at the moment. Thanks in advance!
Hi, I purchased Newsmag in early March, 2015, and have been pleased with it. Today, I upgraded to the latest version and now the mobile slide-in menu doesn’t work properly. When clicked, it slides too far in so there is a big gap (roughly 75% of the screen) of blank space to the left of it. Naturally, the menu doesn’t fit and is barely visible on the far right due to this.
Has this happened before, and do you have any suggestions for fixing it?
Thanks.
Hi
I have checked your page and did not found any margin for the top banner, only that 10px from code that Lucian provided to you http://screencast.com/t/HhV2SETp1N
Also you can hide row/columns on desktop using the same method to hide those on mobile. Add an extra class to the row/column and hide it using custom css – http://screencast.com/t/wLkbxnis
@axelpetur If you want to hide row/column on specific screen you have to paste the code in Advanced Css – http://screencast.com/t/91JqAS3kvFk1
Thanks!
Hi there,

Hi Support:
I am not sure where I did wrong but it seems my icon menu and search icon not show in mobile (iphone) however the placeholder is there I just don’t see the sign.
Any idea?
Thanks
“Sorry if that didn’t help.”
any help is appreciated, so thank you.
all ads are set to work on mobile, desktop etc. and the code is simply copied from adsense just like i did with the other ads which work. i tried different types of ads but none of them work with the article option… the ad simply doesn’t show (even after a few days)
here are all the current settings: http://postimg.org/image/infzt08xz/
is there a way for me to speak with a costumer support representative or is posting my problem on the forum the only option?

Hello
I have searched, found some similar post, but it did not work for me.
So I am asking here.
1. Since I am falling short of the main menu width >> i have slightly more items, I am using top menu to put some of the main menu items there.
2, I cant see the items in TOP menu in mobile menu >>
3. Basically I dont mind to have only MAin menu visible for desktop and pads, but since I am falling short i need to use the top menu too.
4. So bascially in mobile, I need that the top menu is also combined in main menu.
Thanks
Be sure you have the checkbox set for show on desktop, or show on mobile for it to be visible. Sometimes AdSense serves up a blank ad due to timeout from the server they grab the content from. Sometimes a new ad spot takes a bit for them to start serving. Sometimes an extra space or missing part of the adcode in the box will cause it not to work, so good to double double check those things.
Sorry if that didn’t help.
Hi,
Even when i use a html code with link the image scales to 640×82. I think its theme related a upload it in 468×60 it displays on mobile on 468×60 only on desktop 640×82. its a GIF file maybe thats the problem
Hey, I really love the theme and it looks great when I’m logged in viewing my blog wtf1.co.uk
But when I view it was a user pretty much nothing works and I can get my head around it? The main content slider doesn’t work, the menu doesn’t stick to the top, the menu drop downs don’t show… This is both on mobile and on web.
Any idea what this could be? I’m really stuck.
We are getting numerous complaints about users not being able to click off the more stories over lap on their device because the bar with the “X” to close is not visible. We have had to turn it off completely now to fix this. We have tried to increase the depth on the page that it renders to 800 px but that doesn’t help. See image attached from iPhone 6Plus – with 4 stories as the default to show.
Thanks for your help.

For basic minification of the CSS and possibly main js files, see my optimization guide.
Be aware that there is really no 100% way to fully optimize loading the above the fold content with any commercial theme like this one — this is because there are many options and functions being loaded in order to render the page at all, and to provide folks to create totally different designs.
Many articles have been written online about getting a perfect score with PageSpeed and WordPress and that requires custom building a theme from scratch and setting up regions where CSS and js are loaded conditionally and in series based on the content sections. Very complex and outside the scope of commercial themes.
Limiting things like mega menus can help, making sure any external resources load via async (we used to use addthis for social buttons on our sites and had to ‘hack’ that to add async loading of their js, because they were too stupid to do it with one line of code in their WP plugin).
Often to get the best “real world” score for your site, you need to disable any/all things which load externally (ads, etc.) and then test that. Optimize. Then switch on external things, optimize “if possible” and then realize the “real score” doesn’t count the Google ads stuff.
You can’t control caching of external elements (time to live), or minification of external resources. With Google fonts you can load the CSS locally in your own style sheet, then simply “draw” the fonts from their CDN. Now that “Roboto” is open source, one could in theory even load that font off your own server and bypass Google entirely. Or just use “web safe” fonts, to eliminate any external font loading.
For the above the fold render blocking blah blah. If your mobile score is above 85 you’re fine; if your desktop is above 90 you’re fine. But there is a notable “tuning” process to this, and again — it’s almost impossible to eliminate the “render blocking” or “above the fold stuff” entirely with *any* commercial theme.
Not sure any of that helps… just some feedback on my own suffering using commercial WordPress themes, and also building my own bootstrap 2 templates which are running our main business portal (using .shtml and custom page builder CMS; not WP).
Hi,
You need to switch and use the blog style header for the blog style stack: http://screencast.com/t/7J3SEkaTHHE and you can change the big/small images title excerpt from the big slider from theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/tAYe72iUaltC or use custom css to make the font smaller on mobiles and place you css code here: http://screencast.com/t/kzS9TansZq
Thanks
Hi! I need some help to make the logo bigger with the Header Style 9. I know I can change the min-height/max-height and stuff… but… the sticky header persists bigger instead of to load the Mobile Logo, for example.
So I need to find a way to use a logo with 100px of height in the normal header and 75px in the sticky header.
Here’s my CSS so far:
/** LOGO **/
.td-main-menu-logo img,
.sf-menu > .td-menu-item > a > img {
max-height: 100px !important;
}
/** NAV **/
ul.sf-menu li { float: right; }
.td-mega-menu ul { margin-top: 32px !important; }
.td-header-main-menu { padding: 20px; }
.sf-menu { padding: 3px; }
Thanks guys!
Hi,
The desktop menu appears on mobile and it shouldn’t be there – http://screencast.com/t/5iuaE2E5Oi
Try to disable all plugins except for Visual Composer, remove the custom css (if you added any) and check if the issue is still there.
Let me know how it works.
Thank you!
Hi,
1. Please also provide your site’s URL as I need to inspect your site so I can provide an accurate solution on this.
2. Unfortunately those VC column options don’t work but you can add a custom css class to that row/column you need to hide on mobiles like this: http://screencast.com/t/Y5B0S3wrEcje then use custom css to hide that row on mobiles or the viewport you want like this: http://screencast.com/t/69cIbmxcW
This is the css I’ve used you can set the “ttt” class your self and sue the css below to hide it and place it in theme panel > advanced css on the device you need to hide it.
.ttt {display: none}
3. That unfortunately can’t be done easily as the theme isn’t designed to support blocks in the header. For that section you can chose from the available header style in theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/cyp8hAYjdue or you can customize it as you like by hard-coding your design here: http://screencast.com/t/JqQQmxS6Q
Please note that in approximately two weeks the new version of the newspaper theme will be available with more customization options available for the top menu and more header styles from you can chose so you can decide then if you want to design your own header or use a predefined one.
Thanks
hi, every time i get a surge of traffic, my site becomes crazy slow, especially on mobile devices. im running a 32gb ram server and confirmed with my web hoster that none of my ressources are even close of being used. i tried using google speed test for my site newswatch28.com, i get many errors: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fnewswatch28.com%2F&tab=mobile
i have the td booster pack plugin enabled. im also running w3 total cache plugin with page cache and browser cache enabled.
for Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content: i tried following https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-speed-guide/
i pasted the code in my functions.php removed it got all my files ids that i need to add to the speed booster pack plugin php file:
$this->move_style_to_footer(‘easy-social-share-buttons’);
$this->move_style_to_footer(‘contact-form-7’);
$this->move_style_to_footer(‘google-font-rest’);
$this->move_style_to_footer(‘js_composer_front’);
$this->move_style_to_footer(‘td-theme’);
$this->move_js_to_footer(‘contact-form-7’);
$this->move_js_to_footer(‘td-site-min’);
$this->move_js_to_footer(‘comment-reply’);
$this->move_js_to_footer(‘jquery’);
i tried pasting them where i thought i should but when i tried refreshing the speed test, the errors never went away. i reverted to the original… im not sure where to add them…
For prioritize visible content, i have no clue whatsoever to do, and strongly feel i need to do this. mobile only 31% rendered and 20% on desktop:
Your page requires additional network round trips to render the above-the-fold content. For best performance, reduce the amount of HTML needed to render above-the-fold content.
The entire HTML response was not sufficient to render the above-the-fold content. This usually indicates that additional resources, loaded after HTML parsing, were required to render above-the-fold content. Prioritize visible content that is needed for rendering above-the-fold by including it directly in the HTML response.
For Leverage browser caching: once again, no clue what to do. i tried following the guide again pasted the code from your guide in .htaccess, nothing…. deleted and reverted to original awaiting on your answer.
there’s other minify issues but no instructions on the guide.
i can provide my ftp access, and admin login. please help, really dont know what to do anymore at this point…
and on mobile side: https://www.gstatic.com/swiffy/v7.1/runtime.js (50 minutes)
Viewing my website on a desktop, it is ok but partially ok when it is viewed on the mobile in the landscape format but very distorted when viewed in the portrait view. The main problem is in the big image slide that is at the top and the article title that is displayed on the images. How do I get fix this? The site url is samhaykins.com.
Thank you

Hello, excuse my English, greetings from Argentina. I have to fix the following:
1* As I can shrink the margins (high) on display from the mobile?
http://www.screencast.com/t/G45cMf19m
2* Hide blocks on mobile devices no funciona, como debo utilizar los css?
http://prntscr.com/4yxjqt
3* How to insert a block in place of the logo to customize the header and achieve something like this?
http://www.screencast.com/t/oqodyuT1q
http://www.screencast.com/t/K16Vg9Fa9aLW
Thank you very much …
Hi,
The same content is used and loads on mobiles also and the ad divs are just hidden and change the display mode depending on the devices screens width.
You can use just the div you need for ex if you need the banner just on mobiles you can add just the mobile div: http://screencast.com/t/Ozc52TBcXU
You could also do it by detecting each viewport via js and display the banners but you would need custom work for this and we cannot provide any at this time. You could get a freelancer to do it for you: http://studio.envato.com/
Thanks
