or just tell me any other method i can achieve that
Hi
Technically speaking the sidebar ad is displayed fine on your site on tablet as the theme don’t ad any margins for it. I’ve test this on my side and got the same result on iPas mini: http://screencast.com/t/zzV0ceJaimB5
However you can add a margin for the ad using this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/MRUyX9g4y7S
@media (max-width: 1023px) and (min-width: 768px) {
.home .td-a-rec-id-sidebar, .td-a-rec-id-custom_ad_2 {
margin-left: 10px;
margin-right: 10px;
}
}
I’ve targeted only the ads from your homepage but if you want this css to work on other pages and on other ad-spots then you’ll need to adjust the css selectors.
To fix this link try this: http://screencast.com/t/s8se9C86
body{
word-break: break-word
}
Thanks!
Hi,
Not all of the ads are supported. There are lots of options that come with google adsense that we have not tested yet. The theme was tested and works with the standard adsense ad. You can maybe try to use the “other ads” method to see if your ad will work: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/
If the ad does not show up, you can maybe use the adrotate plugin.
Hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello janamtrup,
If you want to add more ads, it is necessary to create another custom ad (custom ad 6, custom ad 7, etc). Please follow the steps in the topic to create another custom ad: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/create-additional-custom-ads/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hi Bogdan
I may have solved the problem by removing the script
<script async src=”//pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js”></script>
above the ad link … there being other adsense banner on the page is not necessary to put it on every ad
in this way it seems that speedbooster is ok and speed site does not deteriorate…
yes i know…very strange but that’s how it seems
Thanks anyway
Hi,
This is strange indeed, You can try to add your custom ad shortcode in the single_template_2.php file here:
http://screencast.com/t/4zcCtQtx
If this still makes speedbooster stop working, maybe you could try another ad, like a simple image ad instead of adsense to see if there is any code related to the ad that creates this error.
I tested this on my end with the do_shortcode function both in the loop file or the single_template file, but there was no change in pagespeed and speedbooster worked as expected.
Thanks.
Hi
Please address us in English so we can better understand your requests.
Please check our documentation regrading banner ads usage: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-using-other-ads/
Also you try this ad code as example code and change your target link and image source as you need:
<div class="td-visible-desktop">
<a href="https://www.google.ro/"><img src="http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/rec728.jpg" alt="" /></a>
</div>
<div class="td-visible-tablet-portrait">
<a href="https://www.google.ro/"><img src="http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/rec728.jpg" alt="" /></a>
</div>
<div class="td-visible-phone">
<a href="https://www.google.ro/"><img src="http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/wp-content/uploads/2014/08/rec728.jpg" alt="" /></a>
</div>
Thanks!

Hello
Like everyone I try to have the fastest site.
wwww.virutalmagie.com
It seems the events plugin slow the site.
But in the waterfall, the Roboto and Open Sans seem to do that also.
Here the test without the ads:
https://gtmetrix.com/reports/www.virtualmagie.com/UoeRZHyE
Maybe is it possible to do something by putting the font directly on my site?
By analysing these tests, if you have any other ideas to charge the site faster, please let me know.
Regards
Hello firetoss,
The DoubleClick ads aren’t recognized by theme’s ad system and the code is rendered as it is. The theme only works using Google Adsense ad codes: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ads/ for another type of ads you can either use wp text widget or a plugin like Simple Ads Manager or AdRotate to render the code then use theme’s ad spots. For more references about this regard, you can consult this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-responsive-ads-with-google-dfp/
Thanks.
Hello kepokorea,
Please notice that the settings for different resolutions are applied only for Adsense code. If you are using another Ad code, you have to use div’s method, as you can see in our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/custom-ad-spots/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hi
There is no bug with theme’s ad’s system at the moment. Note that the options which enable/disable ads for a specific device works only for ad-sense code. In your case the code used for header ad is not an ad-sense code: http://screencast.com/t/nFZ0hmU8ja5u and the disable option does not work for it. For other ads the theme load the same code for all devices and use media queries to control their’s styles.
Please check carefully my previous reply, I’ve pointed there how theme works when google ad-sense code it’s used. The does not call the ad-spot if the ad it’s disabled for a specific device, but again this works only with ad-sense code. To have this working with other type of ads are required some customizations in theme’s ad system, so the theme to detect the new ad code and apply the same behavior for it as for ad-sense code.
Thanks!
Hello,
You can use the footer ad spot from here: http://screencast.com/t/eyQsmXVRGQ
If you use adsense, make sure you do not have the ad disabled for other viewports. if the ad is a custom one, please use this method to implement it:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
Hi,
I am trying to setup adsense code and “content.ad” widgets on my site. From the theme panel I have managed to set up both codes correctly and also when I go to the widget area, I have added to correspondent tagdiv boxes.
When I got to my site, the widget that it’s supposed to be on the sidebar shows at the bottom, and the widget that it’s supposed to show at the bottom of every post, it shows double.
Any suggestions or ideas what could be wrong? Take a look at this page for example
the widget display double and on the bottom
but when you go to the homepage
The widget that is supposed to show in the sidebar, displays correctly
Thank you!
Just to share some experiences improving site speed for the many who post here to discuss…
What I’ve also done (My site is an independent ‘hyperlocal’ news site – slightly bigger than hyperlocal really) which I think is good practice given FB Instant Articles and AMP (Already on Apple News for almost a year now) is almost ‘forget the desktop’ exists.
Due to 75%+ mobile visitors it seems good practice (if a ‘live’ news site with say 100+ articles per week) to get the site as fast and safe as possible – this may help others
– I’ve removed all home page blocks except ‘ticker’ – a lightweight grid with no slider- and a sidebar
– Removed all plugins or deactivated ones no required all the time
– Implemented Chris S .htaccess and functions.php tips exactly as described – inc image resizing
– Paid Cloudflare with page rules to remove wp-admin etc- following TagDiv recommendation settings except RocketLoader ON – Mirage in ON
– Removed my subscriber pop-up and won’t use one – promote subscriptions via another route – FB ads – Twitter ads perhaps
– Removed SumoMe and anything that fetches CSS externally
– I do run UberMenu on main site and ShiftNav on mobile (for a better user experience) – But run NO mega menu or dropdowns
– Currently RocketLoader (Cloudflare) runs and doesn’t break anything
– Only added Google Analytics via YoastSEO not on Theme Panel box – it’s there and working
– ADDED a user text box to point people to how to navigate the site – believe it or not saying ‘Press load more or click coloured category labels or main menu’ actually gets visitors to do that!
Results –
Before – GTMetrix – PageSpeed B YSlow C Page size (Homepage) 3.2MB Requests – 187 – Load time – about 7-10 secs
Pingdom 5-7 seconds
After – Page Speed A (96%) YSlow B (82%) Page size (Homepage) 1.2MB Requests 96 – Load time – 2 secs
Pingdom 700ms-1.3 secs
The theme still looks great on desktop but it’s not worth getting caught up in the aesthetics if the visitors aren’t looking at the pretty views – it looks brilliant on mobile and that’s what matters.
Hello,
If you use a custom ad, please only use this method and only use the div’s for the mobile version:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/
Hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello,
If the ad code is new, it can take up to a few days for adsense to provide the ads themselves. I have inspected your website and the ad code is there, just that there is no ad served from google. If it will still not show in a couple days, please contact google and let them know about it. you can test the theme ad spot with another ad (a demo ad that comes with the theme or a simple image. If this will show up, it means the adsense should work fine as well)
Thank you!
For those who think they’re on the cusp of this stuff (sadly I have to be), there is now also the Apple News Publisher format, which *also* has a beta plugin for WordPress.
So, between
* AMP
* Facebook Articles
* Apple Publisher
I don’t see any theme developer going too nuts in trying to bake all of that in.
HOWEVER, that being said – TagDiv *will* need to (hopefully) come up with solution for the hit counter not incrementing for AMP views, even if it’s a hack (hint!).
That won’t really be possible with the FB and Apple versions as those are essentially custom RSS feeds where the content loads on the other sites/apps (to enable captive advertising outside scope of ad blockers); whereas AMP is part of the site and uses local content, and simply uses cloud based CSS/styles for speed, while stripping out any errant old HTML or javascript.
Smart list photos are 2 same photo. i mean it seems two at the page but in codes just one ?? How can i fix?

Hello,
For posts, this will be a bit trickier to code in, but you can use the main article inline ad from the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/CrIUQRiq and you can insert custom ads inside the content when editing a post like so: http://screencast.com/t/MCVy4miUsBR
The post content is dynamic so it will be much more difficult to add another inline ad to apply to all posts.
Thank you!
Ok Catalin,
The first question is ok. 2) For Ads i will try to disable the plugin. Thankyou. For the images I’d forgot to set feutured images in the post. Howewer i set “on” Placeholder.
Just 2 other question on feutured images.
1) If I set on > SHOW FEATURED IMAGE in the Theme panel and set feature image in the post as in all posts, the result in the article is this screenshot (Photo are duplicate). https://www.uploady.com/#!/download/ZKNlCb3WqX0/V~z6yuwbHdAfPyxl I disabled it now
2) When I purchased the theme, i regenerated all images but the images are missing. Now, I just enable option “FEATURED IMAGE PLACEHOLDER” but the result is: https://www.uploady.com/#!/download/b6f~aWsSuk7/yyYg8ginFZRCXY2b
Thank you
Hello eddycom,
1)I have checked your website and saw the problem with your Big Slide 1. This kind of behaviour appears when your posts have not set the feature image and the placeholder it not activated. Please try to activate this option and make sure that your posts have featured image activated -> http://screencast.com/t/s7nLeqQ6
For more information about these settings, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image/ Also, as a hint, you can try to find some plugins to get the first image on your post to be featured image. Most of our customers use Auto Post Thumbnail Pro in this case but please notice that is not a tested plugin and we cannot provide support for this type of plugin.
2)Unfortunately, I cannot inspect your banner ad because I cannot find it on your website. So, please ensure that you have entered the right code in each field from our theme. I have tested on my side with another Ads and it display as expected. Also, please ensure that your code supports 728*90 size in order to achieve best results. For more information about Ads implementation, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/header-ad/ Also, I saw that you are using some untested plugins which could create some interferences in our theme and could cause some errors in it. Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
Thank you for the message!
Hello basecrest,
I do not understand very well what you want to do but if you want to display your ads you have to add them in Ads area from Theme panel. Please notice that our theme only renders the code from your Ad and do not affect the functionality of this. For more information about Ads, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/ I do not understand what you want to mean with “without paying” becasue it is not theme related.
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
The theme only offers the ad spots from the theme panel. Please understand that any other ad placement you want will have to be made custom and coding skills will be required. For the standard ads from the panel, there are options to hide ads on particular viewports: http://screencast.com/t/iICtxBzkK
If you want to place ads besides the website you need to add them in header.php and then use css to position them with a (fixed position) and hide them for tablet portrait and mobile using media queries.
For example:
You can use a do_shortcode function to add your banner to the site. You can use one of the custom ad spots for it: http://screencast.com/t/XPYCo8hdzn
Then you can target it with css for positioning:
.td-a-rec-id-custom_ad_1{
position:fixed!important;
left:0;
top:300px;
z-index:99999
}
You can repeat this fort the right side ad.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.
Hi Tag Div,
Good day!
I’m writing because the Ad Box Bottom that I set to show up at the bottom of each post is not showing up at:
http://didgeproject.com/therapeutics/doctors-now-prescribing-music-for-heart-ailments-brain-dysfunction-learning-disabilities-depression-ptsd-alzheimers-and-more/
The Ad Box looks like “Subscribe To Our Mailing List to receive the latest Tutorials, Articles, Events and Downloads directly in your inbox:” followed by a sign-up box and subscribe button.
This box seems to be working on all other articles, including my other Smart List: http://didgeproject.com/artists/piano-around-the-world-performance-video-roundup/
Can you advise as to why it may not be showing up on this article?
Thank you,
AJ
Thanks for your reply but I have tested the AdSense code on another of my websites and it displays fine. It also displays with the Newspaper theme if I put the code directly into the post, but it doesn’t display when the code is put into the Top and Bottom ad sections in the theme panel.
