Hello,
i am opening the same page with a CPT and taxonomy, and after update it seems to be different.
Single CPT tax – Before update (ver 6.3)

Single CPT tax – After update (ver 6.4)

This is a mistake?. I think, the correct design is in the version 6.3.
Wait your comments.
Thanks.
Hi,
You can add your custom slider in the menu template that you use and add a condition to appear only for front page – http://screencast.com/t/VEIuCqkyZxy use something like this:
<?php if (is_front_page()) {
echo do_shortcode('your shortcode');
}?>
Thanks!

Hi,
Possible to add a infinite scroll in a page (template: pagebuilder + latest articles + pagination) instead of just blocks only
Thanks
Hi, I’d love to create a completely blank page template that shows up in the dropdown box area for choose page template. I need this page to be absolutely blank (no header, no footer) just the ability to have the content area (that would be edited via Visual Composer) and that is wide.
Any tips how to create that particular php page?
I would love to see a TagDiv plugin for the ad page redirect to original requested page option; but these are sometimes things that might be better served through an ad system which is updated regularly as strictly an ad system to manage both ads, ad sales, ad placement and things like promoted post, custom post templates, etc.
Not super easy to do.
Hi, Alin!
Thanks for the reply! I have given all the permission, but still no effect. The visual composer is actually loading in the page builder and it is loading configuration form for the big grids in the homepage template, but it is not loading configuration form in the td_blocks. showing the configuration frame without fields to make changes.
Any idea?
[ Version 6.4 ]
blog_post: http://tagdiv.com/newspaper-6-4-update/
– new: smart list with pagination
– new: this is the first version of our ajax preloader. The preloader loads the ajax subcategories on the initial pageload, this provides a better user experience and in some cases a better performance if the initial page is cache.
– new: all categories now have an option for infinite loading + load more instead of pagination
– new: 2 new smart lists templates (smart list 6 and 7)
– new: 2 new ad spots used for smart lists (smart list 6 and 7)
– new: 2 new post style template (style 12, 13)
– new: demo – Travel
– new: demo – Health & Fitness
– new: footer background option in Theme Panel -> Footer
– new: wooCommerce invoicing plugin
– new: wooCommerce label maker plugin with support for label Dymo label printer
– fix: default and custom ad size not working for tablet landscape
– fix: on the ad block the sidebar ad spot cannot be selected since the last visual composer update
– fix: IMPORTANT security issue with the ajax code that handles the sidebars.
– fix: issue with ajax subcategories. If you clicked them fast enough there was a chance that they will desynchronized with the content, showing the wrong content.
– fix: block 18 css fix for large image sizes
– improvement: a big part of the themes JavaScript now passes jsHint and complies to WordPress JavaScript Coding standards
– improvement: mega menu ajax loading now works smoother and the animation is top to bottom
– improvement: infinite loader now has a loading animation
– improvement: we improved the loading animation, when needed it’s smaller and it looks better
– improvement: added link to user page on login widget from top menu
Hi
The categories and tags pages uses the same ads system as the usual pages, you insert ad code in theme’s ad spots and are displayed in header and sidebar area http://screencast.com/t/DvhOGanWzCu You can set the sidebar for categories like here: http://screencast.com/t/m7I0FDjJh8SZ and tags from theme panel > template settings: http://screencast.com/t/Jhn0wGCJ8
If you still need assistance on this please provide more details!
Thanks!
Hi,
I have checked your site and the above css works for your page – http://screencast.com/t/FNQiZIPXqR4 Also for post pages you need to use also this class – http://screencast.com/t/5ZaRWhZLUtfn and use !important tag.
.td-main-content-wrap, .post {
background-color: #ebe5dc !important;
}
You may need additional customization if you use another post template as I have tested this only for existing posts.
Hope this helps!

Hi
I have been creating a home page. I have applied default home page template of Newspaper. But when I tried to edit the blocks, the visual composer is not giving the form to configure the block.
Can you help me to fix this problem
Regards,
J
Hi,
I have created a page with Visual Composer and chosen “Pagebuilder + page title” as template: http://www.sverigetips.se/stockholm/. However, as you can see this setup changes how block 15 is displayed in my footer. The block should display in five columns (on desktop), not three. Compare with other pages on the same site where block 15 looks alright in the footer.
I cannot use the Default template for my page because it doesn’t display breadcrumbs, page title and sidebar.
How can I use Pagebuilder on pages and still keep the correct block layout in my footer?
Thanks.
Walther
Hi,
1. Not sure what you mean, your page is looking exactly like the other one – http://screencast.com/t/xErXFIeI Do you refer to the ajax filter? Please provide more details.
3. This is how it works the classic pagination(numeric) used for latest article template. If you want to use ajax pagination, you can use the default page template and use a block to display your latest articles and set the block pagination that you wnat to use(next/prev, load more, infinite) – http://screencast.com/t/5in0pMY7nD – http://screencast.com/t/mzpBXdW0
4. I have checked you site and I guess you find the proper solution for it – http://screencast.com/t/dHZRyTYJkWnP – http://screencast.com/t/iG2jjfjFAk Unfortunately page content will not be displayed in mobile menu, like I said above.
Thanks!

Hi,
You can change the module for search template from Theme Panel > Template Settings – http://screencast.com/t/upwRoQgu Also if you want to modify a module only for search page you can create a condition to display the thumb only if we are not on search template. For example if you use module 6 on search – http://screencast.com/t/dPzSJn48xQhd – http://screencast.com/t/n1QQfEroutH
if (!is_search()) {}
Result: http://screencast.com/t/KastY3uEll3s
Or you can hide it via custom css in Theme Panel – http://screencast.com/t/rJidXgLfy
.search .td_mod6 .thumb-wrap {
display: none;
}
Thanks!
I have a problem with Open Graph Tags on single template, theme Newspaper paints these two tags:
<meta property="og:image" content="http://videosdejuegos.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/5AlAKpipTS8hqdefault.jpg" /><meta name="author" content="Sergio">
before normal Open Graph Tags:
<meta property="og:locale" content="es_ES" />
<meta property="og:type" content="article" />
<meta property="og:title" content="Juego de carros totalmente gratis para PC, simulador y no requiere equipos potentes "driving speed" - Vídeos de Juegos" />
<meta property="og:description" content="Un juego de carros totalmente gratis para PC. No requiere de muchos recursos ni requisitos de computadora y puede jugarse en equipos hasta poco potentes pentium 4, y 1 mg. en ram.

As a result causes an error in the post information to share on Facebook or Google+, example of screen capture:
https://gyazo.com/0cc370c0f9b75f41a52f9271e714e7fb
I need to delete these 2 tags of the code template:

See my other note in your search issue thread …
check to see if you have a category setup as /home/ as that would conflict with a page called ‘home’ — or possibly change your ‘home’ page template for theme to what I do, I name it something like “homepager” … then set that as the static page.
Using “home” might be the prob. 🙂
Sounds like you have some caching issues, and/or you need to reset the template used as static home page; double check your htaccess file, resave permalinks, etc.
Theme does not control location of your “home” page, that is usually from a permalink setting.
You need to regenerate thumbnails to fit theme sizes, and ideally use an optimization methodology either via functions.php setting for compression level, or plug like smushit.
Likely fixing the permalink structure, caching, and checking your htaccess file for leftovers from old theme(s), would be first check on not being able to preview.
Remember to disable all plugins from old theme!
Hi,
You can edit each post template that you use (edit loop-single or single_template depending which post style you use) and replace the date with you custom code – http://screencast.com/t/lTeeQQBFE5R
Try to use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/qXk5ugtGU
.page-nav-post {
display: table;
float: none;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
width: auto;
}
Thanks!
Thanks for the reply, will look into the Custom Page Template process. Doesn’t sound too difficult.
Photo grid in events section is displaying properly for now since we deactivated an offending plugin (Huge-IT Video Gallery). Wondering if you are aware of any other video gallery options that seem reliable and work well with Newspaper?
Much appreciated!
Hi,
Wondering how to modify the results from a standard search. Current results include Headline, Image, Byline, Lede, Category/breadcrumb, Continue button, etc. Hoping to condense and/or reformat so more results are visible in less space. One search term can return as much as 20 pages, which is a lot for users to sift through. Maybe just Headline of article and date? Also, are we able to deliver search results to another template, perhaps one we could format using Visual Composer?
Any suggestions would be appreciated!
Hi,
I have checked your page and did not found any issue when View as Photo is set – http://screencast.com/t/f3MKDlXs0PL please clear cache.
Regarding custom modifications, you will have to create a new page template to be used on events page, please check how default page templates are created(and create something similar in the root of the theme use something like page-yourtext.php) – http://screencast.com/t/LvbeNI7Hj3Q register a new sidebar in(like Footer columns) for example – http://screencast.com/t/9lJHWa38rF5
register_sidebar(array(
'name'=> 'extra',
'id' => 'extra-widget', //the id is used by the importer
'before_widget' => '<aside class="widget %2$s">',
'after_widget' => '</aside>',
'before_title' => '<div class="block-title"><span>',
'after_title' => '</span></div>'
));
It will appear in the Widgets section so you can drag widgets to it – http://screencast.com/t/aJZ6TTz7 And use it in your custom page template, instead of <?php get_sidebar(); ?> use dynamic sidebar code:
<?php dynamic_sidebar('extra'); ?>
You can do this if you have basic experience.
Hope this helps!

Hi,
If you have on page templates “Homepage – with article list”, this means that you have version 4 of the theme. So you can use module 1 to display entire content of the post, insert the read more tag to cut the text where you wish. Please note that no block was designed using this module(this module use post text content, it not using excerpt like other modules) so it can be used only for blog page, category page, latest articles.. If you want to display latest articles using module 1 please check page settings – http://screencast.com/t/0LxtKaotr
Thanks!
Since update via wordpress category pages me the following error message:

I returned to uninstall and install the theme and still appears 🙁
I can’t seem to solve or make progress on my Newspaper Theme performance issues.
I’ve got five friends that want to use Newspaper, too, if only I can get past my performance issues.
(They’re new bloggers, they like the idea of the theme, they’re a bit worried about my inability to fix my performance issues, or to find someone who can.)
My performance sucks (in the 40’s) with no clear remedy in sight.
Worse, when users hit my site the first time, the page loads blank (no images show)
If they reload the home page, then images show the second time, but after a flash of gray.
Here are screen shots:
* Empty Images – http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/509260/1ae034f2ac380576a5dd1d8e49faed92
* On Reload – http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/509262/dd0893dd0a1944de6aab6f0a9591e297
I haven’t seen anybody else’s site load like mine, where it’s all framed out with gray placeholders, and then, as if a second flash, the images then show up.
Here’s my setup at a glance:
* I’m hosting on Siteground.
* I use WP Rocket which is tested with Siteground — just default options.
* I’m using a CDN (Cloudflare), with default options.
* I have Gzip working.
* I use WP Smush Pro to smush all images (all images are smushed.)
* I used P3 (Plugin Performance Profiler) to analyze plugin performance.
I contemplated W3 cache (well, In installed it, but it was immediate conflict with WP Rocket, and WP Rocket’s feature compare shows superior in all regards, but I don’t have enough experience yet to know of it’s true.)
I get Chris’s point on the difference between buying a car, and driving the car. Well, now I want to know how to drive like the Mario Andretti. I feel like I’ve got the “owner’s Guide”, but not the “Driver’s Guide”. But actually, I don’t want yet another guide, I want a student driver model where I pay a consultant to show me the ropes for a couple of hours while fixing things, looking over my shoulder, or me looking over theirs.)
My images are probably the main problem, I don’t know how to fix them without doing weird acts of God, and I’m trying to keep posting simple and pragmatic, not build a better mouse trap with weird optimizations and even weirder workflow.

Tips
——————–
I’ve seen these tips:
* Chris S – Additionally, I use the WP-Optimize plugin to regularly optimize my WP dbase. Cutting 800kb out of your dbase once a week, or after a large number of posts/pages, also speeds up your system overhead. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/what-is-your-googlespeed-value/
* Chris S – If you can hit 90+ on your desktop score and 85+ on mobile, you can live a happy life and not stress over it. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/what-is-your-googlespeed-value/
* Chris S – – There are numerous resources on the net to learn how to set-up your web server account for gzip, expiration headers, optimize your images prior to uploading to your site, editing your htaccess file for WordPress, limiting use of resource hogging plugins unless absolutely necessary, etc., using W3cache with the minimal settings recommended in this forum from Radu/Marius (( QUOTE: w3 total cache use only the ‘full page cache.’ )) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pagespeed/
* Radu – On the demo we are running a stock theme with our stock speed booster plugin! Also note that any additional plugins slow the theme down and lower the score in pagespeed. – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/what-is-your-googlespeed-value/
Tools
————
I’ve used these tools
* Google Page Speed – https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
* GTMerix – https://gtmetrix.com/analyze.html
* Is compression working? http://www.gidnetwork.com/tools/gzip-test.php
* Pingdom Tools – reality test – http://tools.pingdom.com/fpt/#!/bGth8K/sourcesofinsight.com
* Web Page Test – http://www.webpagetest.org/
Google tells me my page speed sucks. Is Compression Working tells me Gzip is working. Pingdom tells me my images are bloated. GTMetrix fails with a 522 timeout and blames my CDN.
The quote that keeps me going is:
“Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.”
I guess I’m getting stronger day by day.

Hello,
I all of a sudden cannot click on any item while using the visual composer on a new page. I cannot add an element, add a row, or select a template, etc. I go in to click on an item, but nothing happens when I click.
However, my homepage, which is a template I added when I first installed, I can still edit using the Visual Composer.
What can I do to fix this?
I went in and re-selected all items under the Administrator permissions, but it still doesn’t work. Please help!
Thanks!
Thanks for the suggestion, I just modified the default sidebar with generic content so it will work with this and maybe other areas where we run into the same challenge.
Prior to that, I noticed that the “Photo” view isn’t displaying anymore on the events page:
http://www.venturaclassifieds.com/events/photo/# The images/events are there (their links become visible when they’re hovered over) but all text is white and images are invisible.
Other views, like list and calendar still seem to work fine. Wondering if you have seen this before, perhaps it relates to the default template?
With regard to custom modification, can you provide any direction so that we have a better sense of what type of work we’re asking developer to complete? Not really sure how to explain the task.
Thanks!
