OK.
I’ve investigated more.
the “Aggregate JS-files” function of Autoptimize is not compatible with “Ajax post view count”. It must be deactivated. …
If it can help people having the same issue.

Hi,
You can try couple of things, first activate the mobile theme of Newspaper, that will bring the speed upto/over 45 (mobile).
Next you need to check the render blocking scripts.
I used this tutorial to bring those down. (you need to understand coding for a little while)
https://searchtides.com/eliminate-render-blocking-javascript-css-fold-content/
Also I am using lot of plugins to get the work done, You can also check some for yourself.
JCH Optimize is a good one to bring the speed index up. But remember if with plugins, the website might not work properly. So, keep experimenting.
I use WP Super chache, since any other cache plugin does not make the new stories appear, and you would end up cleaning the cache every time you post a new story/article. It is not the best Cache plugin, but seems to be the only one working with Newspaper.
We also use WP Smush Pro to keep the images size low.
Some of the plugins might reduce the desktop site index, as it puts more load on server, so make sure you have good RAM and CPU on the server.
Newspaper requires good amount of resources to be quick, no matter what anyone says you need good amount of RAM and CPU for your site to be fast if you are using this theme :).
However, Newspaper is much better than other themes we have seen, as they keep it updated and their support is excellent. Only thing missing here is infinite article load and infinite smart list load. Probably we will see it in the next update. That will make bounce rate lower and also time spend on site higher.
Hope all this helps!
pana sa fac ultimul update cand intrai pe prima pagina pe dextop anunturile adsense se adaugau singure https://www.vdtonline.com/ in jur de 3-4 anunturi apare-au pe prima pagina. pe mobil auto adsense merge perfect pe dextop nu merg, ceva le blocheaza. si despre pluginul yoast am trimis ticket la ei si au verificat si ei si au spus sa vorbesc cu cei de unde am cumparat tema. Va dau un exemplu cum aparea inainte si cum apare acum. http://prntscr.com/m5rjxg asa aparea inainte (<!– This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v9.3 – https://yoast.com/wordpress/plugins/seo/ –>) si dupa ce am facut update acum apare asa http://prntscr.com/m5rkd4 la punctul 10 apare gol ceva blocheaza.

Hello everyone,
I’m using the integrated Video Playlist of Youtube, how can I optimize the frame, as I make pagespeed worse, can I act on the precise IFRAME?
Thank you
Hi,
I’m using newspaper with WP Super Cache and Autoptimize on.
Since I use WP Super cache post view count stopped counting.
I did have put the “post view count target on in the “post setting” feature in your dashboard.
Nothing to do !! Don’t work anymore. Like the saving of the DIV builder…
Example with this post :
https://www.frequenceterre.com/2019/01/01/cop-24-un-manque-de-volonte-des-etats/
diplaying 1 view
But Analytics is giving me 36 single unique views and 86 page view

I’ve tried to put the target of the ajax post view count “off” … flushing the cache.. Putting it back on… And flush the cache. Always the same.
Thanks.
Hi,
The included mobile theme plugin is more optimized for mobiles, it will simplify the website and provide a noticeable improvement in terms of speed on mobile. .
Each page will require two versions. For desktop you can use the page builder, but when viewed on mobile and the mobile plugin is active, the page will be empty.
Page builder content is not displayed by the mobile plugin. Mobile pages have to be simple, created within the mobile editor. This will greatly increase mobile performance. The settings of the plugin are kept to a minimum as well, many elements are predefined.
This plugin is optional, when not active the same content from desktop will be displayed on mobile as well (responsive version). So you can simply not use the mobile plugin.
The documentation for it is here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Please let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi all,
Anybody with an optimized cache and Cloudflare settup update?
Hello everyone,
I really don’t know what happened to my theme, but it seems really broken. I tried a lot of things, even installed wordpress and the newspaper theme totally fresh again and recovered only my posts, the post meta and the common wordpress option data.
I thought it could be something like the icon font issues some people had. So I tried to adjust my htaccess and allowed loading images from all sources and so on. Didn’t make a change.
Then I thought it could be an issue with the plugin Autoptimize. I checked the boxes for optimizing JS, CSS and HTML. But I couldn’t reproduce it on an other website of mine. But if I deactivate the plugin, my website gets totally broken and loses all of it’s design. So maybe it has something to do with it?
My Theme Panel and the Theme Plugins look like this:


The icons on my homepage:

Link to my website: mmo-sankar.de
So I hope somebody have a glue what I could do to solve my problem. Or is there a way I can do a fresh install, get my posts back with some metas like seo and also not getting back the data, that seems to generate this issue?
Thanks and best regards,
Sankar
Hi,
The cache folder size is very large in size and increasing every minute.

Currently the size is almost 3GB and getting the below alert.
===
Autoptimize’s cache size is getting big, consider purging the cache. Have a
look at https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/faq/ to see how you can
keep the cache size under control. (site: https://casinamia.com)
===
The server disk space is getting filled up due to this problem. Please let us know if others having the similar issues using the plugin Autoptimize? Also let us know how to fix the issue ?
My problem is solved. I was wrong in assuming that the skin would not show the thumbs properly. The plugin “reSmush.it Image Optimizer” destroyed the regenerated thumbs again and again. I assume that the support has disabled the plugin in his test, so the restoration worked for them but not for me.
Many thanks to the team for the help.
Hi,
Please notice that the speed of your website depends on how well your site is optimized.
Notice that is not a simple task and if you do not have any experience in this regard you will do not bring good results for the theme. Also, notice that we have a speed optimization tutorial but this is addressed only to advanced users. So, if you follow the steps which are presented in this tutorial here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ you can increase the page speed loading and if you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because the speed optimization services are not covered by our support policy, as you can read here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/support-policy-2/ Check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ regarding on dedicated server to fit our requirements.
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option to minify the style.css file and we cannot recommend any plugins with this functionality because is not tested with our theme. For minifying this file, we are using CloudFlare for our demo and works fine. If you want to read other views from our users, please check this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tip-how-to-easily-minify-your-css-without-breaking-your-site/
Also, check all of your Ad Spots and if you have entered any suspicious code through them, remove all of them and check the results without them.
One of our top members here on the forum wrote his own optimization tutorial here:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-chriss-custom-optimizations-for-functions-php-etc/ and here -> https://www.infophilic.com/get-almost-100-pagespeed-newspaper-theme/
Basically, these are the theme requirements

Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Is possible tat one of your plugins to make that conflict, please make sure that all plugins that you have are set well.
Also we recommend WP Super Cache.
If the problem persist please deactivate all plugins , clear all cache , and try again ( in this way you can identify the plugin that cause this problem ).
Also you can try to optimize your website.

Hi,
I’m sorry to hear these words from you! Please notice that our theme is fully optimized and indeed, our CSS is too large but notice that in the future we are trying to minimize it. At the moment, if you want to make some theme’s customizations, you need to edit the style.css file. The .less CSS code is not recommended to be changed.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
First of all, please make sure that your system status parameters respect our theme’s requirements from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-requirements-for-newsmag/ Also, notice that we do not recommend using the Autoptimize plugin because it’s not tested with our theme.
Thanks.
Bonjour,
J’ai installé le template sur mon site internet : http://www.planetelille.com
Depuis l’installation sur le serveur, je constate que le cache est vite saturé via Autoptimize (je n’avais pas l’alerte avant).
En moyenne par jour + 800 fichiers et 1.25 GB
Avez-vous une solution ?
Bonne journée.
I’m getting a poor rating for mobile when running our site through page speed insights here https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fqa.autoanything.net%2Fresources%2F&tab=mobile
I’ve installed Smush and Autoptimize, but it’s not really making a difference. What can I do to improve this?

Hello,
You can add the rel nofollow a single time and it will affect all social networks where the function I pointed out is used. Simply add
rel=”nofollow”
like so: https://www.screencast.com/t/ukMdKD57L
