Hi,
The Latest articles section that is displayed on the bottom of the pages can be customized in the page edit screen

Here you can find more information about the page templates

Thanks
Hi,
So I understand that you want to display a different ad on the homepage, and the normal ad on all other pages. Try making that condition in the header template that you are using
– https://www.screencast.com/t/YUtfVIVC8
You can use the is front page tag and create a condition in the header template

Hi,
A background image can be set in the theme panel
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
Category pages can also have a background image
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
Post template style 8 that you are using sets the post featured image as background. This will override the main theme background
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-2015-awards-all-of-the-best-and-worst-moments-from-the-show/
The post content has a fixed predefined width for layouts with sidebar and without, this cannot be changed unfortunately.
Thanks
Hi Catalin
I have included the CSS but the gap remains – are there any other possibilities I could check for. Here is the Custom CSS I implemented for the http://www.womensgolf.com front page.
.dtherpt {display:none !important}
.entry-crumbs a {
color:black;
font-size: 12px;
}
.entry-crumbs {
color:black;
font-size: 12px;
}
.td-footer-wrapper div .td_block_template_4 .td-block-title > *{
background-color: #b50f0f;
}
.td-footer-wrapper div .td_block_template_4 .td-block-title > *:before{
border-color: #b50f0f transparent transparent transparent;
}
.home .td-main-content-wrap {
padding-bottom: 20px;
}
Thank you
Richard
There has been nothing but issues with the re-installation of this template/newspaper theme. The WordPress backend/editor is not updating things that I do.
1) For example, if I go to home page, and prepend to any column, add single image, the image uploaded or chosen from the library displays as a much larger size then the image size that was uploaded.
2) On the home page, https://www.delawarenewsline.com, on the left side is a plug in called Zotobox displaying social buttons in the debug/left browser position, yet the plug in is not even displayed in my plug in list.
3) Theme settings>ads> when I put the url of an image, and click save, and refresh my browser, it does not show any image at all.
4) sometimes when i click update on the home page, it takes a really long time to update.
It seems that images displayed on “posts”, that are displayed on the home page displays properly on the home page, but when you try to edit the home page using the Visual composer for images, it does not. I recently purchased the pro version of Visual Composer bakery but not able to validate it because the email used is inactive/no longer exist.
Can you take a look at these issues and see if you can duplicate them and see what needs to be done to fix this?
I am using the newspaper theme version 7.7. I am also using woo commerce. I have a wall commerce category page set up here: https://promguide.com/fashion/brand/
But when you click on any of the categories expecting to see products you actually get a 404 error
I believe that for sub cAtecory product pages, woocommerce is is using the theme category template instead of the woocommerce product template. I need the woocommerce product template.
Was this done by design? Is there a configuration change I can make?
Thank you.
@Catalin: So i’ve to remove almost all the style.css that my site uses to obtain an unique and more optimized css loading or remove style.css from the moved css files by speed booster. Anyway, i’ll try it on my test website which is the best way.
@Pierreto: I tried AMP and it doesn’t work correctly. Also, it is not officially supported by the template creators. My website have a very good optimization (https://gtmetrix.com/reports/gamesquare.it/8wMcYwjS – More than 90/100 in Mobile and Desktop score of Google Pagespeed and A-A-A-A-B on WebPageTest), so i don’t want ruin that by using an unsupported plugin.

Hi Catalin, i just see one possible solution, but i need to know if you think it´s right and tell me how. I explain you
If i go to Pages-Homepage newspapper (Homepage) and in Visual composer open block2 settings, i see a filter like ‘post type’. Can I use this filter for example this way?
1-Post with no image i choose like ‘post template’ the style_7, no contain image on design
2-In visual composer, block2 settings, i choose style default or other, an so don´t show post template ‘style_7’
It´s possible that solution, in case yes, how write the only shows default style?
Thanks for your help

Hi Kley,

You can redirect all mobile connexion to amp with this plugin, then you don’t need other mobile template.

Under Newspaper > Theme Panel > Post Settings, then Default post templates (site wide):
I have selected default for the default site post template.
All other options in this page except the two boxes in Featured Images are turned off (for the purpose of testing).
I go to Posts and click Add New, then verify that the Post Template selected is “From Panel.”
In scrolling down, I notice that there’s a lot of stuff in my Visual Composer.
I go back up and select the Classic Editor and notice a bunch of short code on the page.
Without adding anything at all to the post, I click on Preview. What I see appears to be three columns of post previews. On the third column, a sidebar is covering the column with other content.
Clearly, I have something fouled up in the setup (and it was going so well).
No matter which template I select in the Post Settings panel, I still get three columns of post previews with the third column covered by a sidebar containing ads.
Here is the short code in case that helps:
[vc_row full_width="stretch_row" parallax="content-moving-fade" parallax_image="iii_td_pic_homepage_iii" el_class="td-travel-header"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row el_class="td-travel-features"][vc_column][td_block_5 custom_title="" sort="featured" limit="3"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1" spot_title="- Advertisement -"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_4 custom_title="Trip ideas" category_id="" limit="3" td_ajax_filter_type="td_category_ids_filter" td_ajax_filter_ids="" td_ajax_preloading="preload" sort="random_posts"][vc_separator style="dashed" border_width="4"][vc_empty_space height="2px"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_4 custom_title="Travel guides" category_id="" limit="3" td_ajax_filter_type="td_category_ids_filter" td_ajax_filter_ids="" td_ajax_preloading="preload" sort="random_posts"][vc_separator style="dashed" border_width="4"][vc_empty_space height="2px"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][td_block_5 custom_title="Latest from blog" limit="3" ajax_pagination="load_more"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
To make a normal post, I can delete the short code and start with a blank page. then and only then do I get a post that’s what I expect to see. I also notice that I can make other changes using the backend editor if I want to add to the content in some pretty significant ways.
Any thoughts would be appreciated as to why I can’t seem to control the default single view post template like the documentation says I should be able to do??
thanks,
Hello,
Sorry but our theme has no option for either scenarios so there is no convenient click of a button way to do it.
Our theme uses the default search of wordpress and adds a live search to it but the content grabbed is set by wordpress. You will have to search for a plugin or a method of changing the default search of wordpress.
The second option by removing the search from the menu on woocommerce pages is simpler as you can use this function:
https://docs.woocommerce.com/wc-apidocs/function-is_woocommerce.html
You can wrap the theme code in this function (the revers using an exclamation mark in front) so the theme search will show up only when the template is not a woocommerce code. The file you need to alter is here: https://www.screencast.com/t/m4IMj2SXC65i and https://www.screencast.com/t/DcTcRSoq
Thank you!
Hi,
The page is loaded with the footer style set, both on desktop and on mobile. There cannot be a different style loaded on mobile, if you don’t use the mobile theme which has a different footer.. You could simply activate the mobile theme and then you will have a different style of your website, displayed on mobile.
You could maybe hide some elements from the existing footer template, and show them on mobile or maybe manage something similar.
Thanks
Hi,
If you are using the mobile theme plugin, this comes with predefined templates for the homepage, post and category page, etc. These will be displayed regardless of what the content is on desktop. If you would like to display exactly the same content, you can simply disable the optional mobile theme plugin, the theme is fully responsive and will adapt to every screen size. Then the elements that you used to build your homepage for example, will be displayed as they are.
Here you can find more information about the mobile theme

Why am I seeing this error on the top of the portal when I’m trying to edit the home page? This has never displayed during the past week that I made the same changes on our staging site. I’ve made changes to the home page last night. I bring up the page in TD Composer and see the message “Errors happened during tdcIframeData.init() -> bindViewsModelsWrappers()!”
I brought up another home page template in TD Composer and didn’t see this message.
Hi,
I’m using User Frontend plugin and I’m getting an error on post form page like this:
Failed to load content css: http://mydomain/wp-includes/js/tinymce/skins/wordpress/inc.css?ver=4.8
Is that a template error and how can I fix this?
Hello, unfortunately, I do not speak English, so I use Google Translate for it! I apologize!
I have the template installed, in the design view “Custumor” I get the theme displayed, but I call in another browser “Firefox” the page on I get a blank page displayed!
For info!
I have installed the demo theme “News Magazine”.
Does anyone have a tip for me as I get the white side away?
Thanks in advance.
Hi team,
I am having the same problem as above. In short, my single product page and shop page have lost their left margins and are all over the place. They were working fine but out of the blue appear to have gone to sh*t virtually overnight. I just updated to WordPress 4.8 but not sure if that’s a culprit.
In reviewing your post above, I still appear to have the correct code on the product page which is similar to your example. See below.
<head>
<body class=”product-template-default single single-product postid-7643 woocommerce woocommerce-page website-review global-block-template-1 wpb-js-composer js-comp-ver-5.1.1 vc_responsive td-animation-stack-type0 td-full-layout td-js-loaded” itemscope=”itemscope” itemtype=”http://schema.org/WebPage”>
I turned off all plugins except for Visual Composer and WooCommerce and the problem still exists. I tried a different theme which did appear to resolve the issue. When I go back to Newspaper 8, the problem returns. So there appears to be an issue between the theme and WooCommerce. I also updated to WP 4.8 which plausibly could have contributed.
I’m quite experienced with WordPress after nearly a decade of using it, but this one has me stumped and frustrated. Would welcome any help you can provide.
Thanks guys 🙂
I tried what you suggested but diidn’t resolve the problem.
Now I made this test:
– I create a new page
– Insert only a text with title element
– Save the page and exit from TDcomposer
– I open the preview in wordpress and the page has lost formatting
– I re open TDcomposer and it show me “the current content page hasn’t been created by TagDiv Composer!”
Maybe a problem of theme’s templates setting?
Hello Erythros,
1)You should simply customize your post content from the post editor. Your featured video will be automatically posted at the very top of your post page because this is the style for this post template and then, you can add any image and text you want, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/yb2LTuEg8l and the result is here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/1a689PZK
2)Unfortunately, the theme cannot display the video from Twitch but only from YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion. If you want to display more levels in this regard you should implement it yourself because this is not a simple task and it involves hard working through the code. 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 services at the moment, sorry!
3)All the available settings for Related Articles/video can be found here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/P4kyAmBm Unfortunately, the theme does not have any other settings which allow you ‘restrict’ the articles from there as you wish, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
I also get an error message: invalid page template after hitting the save button. ONt easy to find because it is behind the layer. The mouse over helps me: Save the page content.
Any advice?

Hi,
I would like to change width of first grid on page. Like in gadgets demo. https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_gadgets/ Now, I’am using Black Version template. Is it possible?
Hello ahmedyakub,
Here is talking about Category description and page title. If you want to remove it, you do not add the description from each category, in the panel, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/vQOk4r8V and also, for the page title, you can use a bit of CSS code. Or also, notice that you can change the page template to another one from panel, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/rfzBQ02T
.td-page-title{
display:none;
}
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
we are using Thrive Leads and there quiz for lead generation. The quiz is not working on landing pages built with thrive.
The developer writes:
“There are some javascript errors on the page related to the Newspaper theme
– this is what’s causing the quiz to not load:
https://www.screencast.com/t/tbOLfAgG Switching to an unedited wp theme, the quiz loads properly.
The problem is in the following javascript file:
wp-content/themes/Newspaper/js/tagdiv_div.js
and it’s caused by the fact that headerResize variable is undefined. The fix
would be to check if $( ‘#header-outer’ ) exists before retrieving the
‘data-header-reseize’) attribute. The Landing Pages built with TCB do not have
any of the html from the theme templates, and this is why that element does
not exist.
Please contact Newspaper developers and ask them to apply the fix – you
can provide the tech details posted above.”
Can you help?
Thank you
