While checking google pagespeed, i noticed that a lot of newspaper css is not used in the posts page.
Is there an option to remove unused css from the post pages?
Hello,
Please check this guide: https://www.infophilic.com/get-almost-100-pagespeed-newspaper-theme/#preload-newspaper-theme-fonts. You can find the fonts on the source page.
Also, I suggest using the OMGF plugin to optimize the fonts.
Thank you!
Hi,
Installing a prebuilt website does not guarantee that you will have the same page speed; however, optimization configurations are necessary for it both on the server and the site.
There are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

I love the Free News design. Unfortunately the template is unusable for me.
It loads so very slow. Much slower than other Newspaper templates. Also the delayed loading of the image is annoying.
Hello!
Please use the latest update of the theme and plugins.
We’ve discussed here what you can try to exclude or not use: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/admin-ajax-loading-time/

When I examine Google PageSpeed data, I see that the fonts on my site take up a lot of space. I have no knowledge about font optimization. Is there a work you can recommend on this subject?
Hello,
I recommend creating mobile pages and templates and disabling the mobile theme plugin.
Also, if you run ads on your website, I recommend using the WP Rocket plugin to optimize the scripts.

Hello @Ericky !
Please make sure you have the latest update of the theme, plugins, WordPress and PHP version.
Check these guides: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/what-is-google-inp-score-and-how-to-improve-it-in-wordpress/ -> https://web.dev/articles/inp
We have 3 options available for mobile versions that you can use:
1. Responsive version: A responsive version of your website looks similar to the desktop version. TagDiv Composer is used to edit the page.Click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB. There, you can see your mobile version and edit or adjust the elements to look better.
2. Mobile pages: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages
3. Mobile theme plugin: The Mobile Theme is a performance-optimized theme included in the main Newspaper theme that only loads on mobile devices. It comes with its own templates and designs for pages, posts, categories, etc., so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. Please see https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ for more information.
A full explanation is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
If you need to use mobile version 1 or 2, then you need to uninstall the Mobile Theme plugin and AMP.
Try to optimize your website and increase the page speed score.
Please check the tutorials from Google Pagespeed Insights and I’m sure you can increase the page speed.
Please note that page speed is not covered by the support team: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-support/
Please also follow this thread’s advices: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/technical-issues-with-shop-theme-and-poor-performance/

Hello. Now I am facing an issue relating to speed optimization. It show very poor score in mobile view for performance in pagespeed insights.In desktop view it is good but in mobile view the score is 70. How to improve it in mobile to make the score above 90
Hello,
I recommend optimizing your images and fonts and using the WP Rocket plugin.

Thank you!
Hello,
1. Yes, you can add the logo more near to the menu, but you need to set the row layout like this -> https://i.imgur.com/DMqn02Y.jpeg and stretch row https://i.imgur.com/29Aet0y.jpeg You can not delete the empty column, only the row that contains empty columns.
If you want to delete a row, you can delete a row with the empty column using the right click on the row icon -> https://i.imgur.com/JodWvlW.png -> https://i.imgur.com/e6bb8U5.png or using the drag and drop or you can simply click on the row and press the delete button from your keyboard -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Mai7iyEG The same steps are to delete the elements.
2. Please disable the mobile theme and amp plugins.
Using our theme, you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ The option that you need to use.
Suppose you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer. In that case, when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc, so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY.
So, the mobile responsive is what you see when that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
The Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin cannot.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page, you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
3. Format need to be MP4, File size for embedded video should ideally be 500KB, as the ideal page size from Google’s standpoint is <1MB. File size of 1-2MB is acceptable.
Video duration should be no longer than 25 seconds.
4. You need to use a plugin that provides this option. Please check our guide -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/
5. The images are responsive; please let me know what you mean.
6. I recommend using the WP ROCKET plugin.
Also, we don’t recommend to using amp, because it is deprecated -> https://developer.bigcommerce.com/docs/storefront/wordpress/platform-integration/enabling-amp

7. I recommend using Duplicator plugin, but you can try other plugins from this list -> https://www.bluehost.com/blog/best-wordpress-backup-plugins/
8. Usually, the color and image are set on the row, so please edit with tagDiv Composer and select the row and go in the tab CSS, and there you can set it https://i.imgur.com/IkbGWUS.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/background-color-of-the-main-menu-be-changed/

Hello,
I’ve followed all the recommendations and installed all the recommended plugins to get better results with the Newspaper theme, but on PageSpeed Insights the performance of my site is still in the red.
The loading time is very slow. I’ve even done the recommended configuration for Cloudflare. What else can I do to improve loading speed and performance?
My website : https://magazine.pagesjaunes.online/
The tests : https://www.transfernow.net/dl/20240604CYpTGCkw
As I mentioned before, I tested my site from gtmetrix, pagespeed insights, Pingdom. My score is green and really high.
Hello!
You should optimize your website and increase the page speed score as much as you can.
Please check the tutorials from Google Pagespeed Insights and I’m sure you can increase the page speed.
You should have all the needed tagdiv plugins active.
Thank you!
Thanks for replying but I have done that as well and still Google pagespeed picks it up. Is it possible to change the h4 tag to h2 for this?

Hello,
My website https://supernaturalgreece.gr/ is really, really slow (>10sec to load). Many people complained to me about the problem
Two weird things are happening:
1) The site loads faster on the smartphone (different theme, so I believe it’s the Newsweek PRO Demo that creates the issue).
2) I tested my site from gtmetrix, pagespeed insights, Pingdom. The page load takes 1.3 seconds, and my score is really high.
PS: In the past 2 weeks I have 500 internal server error.
PS2: I had another prebuilt demo before Newsweek PRO, and I had no problems.
Hi,
I’ve seen your site and you have a perfect Pagespeed Inp of 128 ms. How did you manage to get it? Here many of us have inp over 200 ms.
Thanks!
I tried with every row options and colour changing scheme also. No change in cls. I am sharing pagespeed report, please check mobile: https://pagespeed.web.dev/analysis/https-www-electronicsforu-com-electronics-projects-hardware-diy-40-metre-direct-conversation-receiver/osr2emsfgh?form_factor=mobile
