I have combined on a category page, a category grid on top and a post loop underneath this element.
The post loop I have sorted on modified date. And the category grid I have a offset of 3 (I have set a grid of 3 posts). The problem is that I can not find the sort order of the category grid. So now I have the same posts on the same page (in the grid and in the loop). How can I solve this?
Kind regards,
Arno
Hello !
All the options available can be found in the Layout section of the Posts loop when edited using the tagDiv Composer as you can see it here: https://www.screencast.com/t/TrqAiFgU27C
Thank you !
Hi guys,
First of all congratulations for your great theme, i bought Newspaper a few months ago and i only found the courage to remake my website last month.
So, as you can guess i met tons of details that need to be cleared, even after reading the documentation.
Please can you help me with these questions ?
1. If the plugin Disqus is activated, the main menu bar takes long time to appears, how to resolve that ?
2. Is it possible to modify the size of the top menu bar ? Can’t find this option in the TagDiv Composer,
3. Is it possible to change the order of the social medias ? (on the top menu for exemple),
4. When i try to change the H2 title style, to make it bold from the theme panel, it doesn’t looks like it works,
5.I have 3 articles at the top of the welcome page (Big Grid Flex 4), then the list of the newest article (Posts Loop) : is it possible to start this second list, with exception of N-3 article ? In other words, to start this Posts Loops from the 4th newest article, to avoid repeating the top 3 newest articles,
6. Is it possible to parameter a template page for all pages at once ? Because for now it looks only possible one by one,
7. Is it possible to make a background video without Vimeo or Youtube ? For exemple a local video, or it would be too heavy ?
8. Is the plugin “Lazy load by WP Rocket” is still usefull if the lazy load option included in the theme is actived ?
9.The Flex Box 1 element is not responsive, it appears well on the computer but not on my smartphone : do you have a solution please ?
10. The sidebar widget looks like it appears different from the native theme widget, for exemple the title : how it is possible to have the same widget title style for everything ?
11. On Chrome with a resolution of 1366*768, i have to unzoom to have full complete page composer and make the scrollbar to appear, do you know about this bug ?
12. How is it possible to disable the arrow in each title of the main menu when i choose to activate the mega sub-menu ?
I know it may be a long email but i have all my questions here 🙂
Thank you very much for your help, i highly appreciate your theme and keep the good work.
See you
Hi,
On that post is use a single post template that have set an infinite loop on it, please check our documentation for infinite loading -> https://tagdiv.com/infinite-loading-for-single-posts/
Thank you!
Hi,
If you want to remove the Latest article you need to change the page template to default -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-page-templates/ if you want to change the Latest Articles text please check in Homepage Latest Articles in Posts Loop Settings -> http://prntscr.com/pqz5za
Thank you!
Hi,
If you are referring to post loop shortcode -> http://prntscr.com/ppip01 then you can not add code only if you change the files from theme, if you are referring to the loop from posts -> http://prntscr.com/ppipukthen you need to edit theme in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/single/loop-single-x.php ( x represent the number of style that you are using ) or you can use a single post template from tagDiv Cloud Library and edit it with tagDiv Composer
Thank you!
Hello !
No other way to limit the post count any other way.
That is not standard. That comes from editing a Category Template from the Cloud Library. The designers removed the post loop and added a block instead. Those subcategories comes from blocks added instead of posts loop.
Thank you for your understanding !
That’s pity! I think it would be good idea to add parameter as number of articles for modules in future versions of Newspaper. No way how to do it now through API or custom config?
So I tried to build up custom cloud category template which will look like predefined Module 1. But there is still one feature I don’t know how to imitate: when I apply Module 1 and there is category with subcategories:
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_medicine/category/specialities/
On category page Specialities tag shown over image shows subcategory name, so there are tags like “Dentistry”, “Diabetes”, etc.
But when I add in new template element Posts Loop as you suggested, there is just Layout / Show category / Show-Hide option and on category page all articles in list have the same tag “Specialities” – which is quite useless. How can I on cloud category template setup tag with subcategory name like is in your demo with Module 1? https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_medicine/category/specialities/
Hi,
The pagination can be set only on posts loop elements -> http://prntscr.com/pl410m or using on page template the Page Builder + Latest Articles + Pagination all the settings for blocks and flex blocks
Thank you!
Good morning, on my website home
before the footer I have “Ultimi articoli” section by POSTS LOOP SETTINGS. In the settings I have choosed LATEST as SORT ORDER but as you can see, the order is not respected.
Can you help me to solve the problem?
I have Newspaper 9.8
Hello,
In order to set the Load more button, you’ll need to make a homepage and set on it the posts loop element from tagDiv Composer -> http://prntscr.com/p2jm3g
Thank you!
Hi Calin,
I was able to move that line in the editor to the header. I’ve saved it and the change is confirmed in the code. However, the tags on my site (even after clearing the cache) are still showing in the footer, not in the desired location.
Is it possible that ‘loop-single-1’ is not the right file for my posts? If so, is there an easy way to determine which file is driving the layout of my posts so I can edit it accordingly?
Thanks, I just copied the files single.php and loop-single.php and I’ve been able to override the default template for blog posts.
Have a nice day!
Hello,
So if I understand correctly you want to change a post template for these type of posts, if is so, with Newsmag theme this can be achieve only making changes in theme core, therefore you’ll need to edit loop-single-x.php and single_template_x.php xis the number of style, these files can be found in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/single/loop-single-1.php
Also will be recommended to use a child theme, in this way when you’ll make a theme update, the changes will be not lost.
Hope this will help you!
Thank you!
Hello,
Similar to the initial post in this thread, I’m trying to move the TAGS line in the footer of my posts to appear at the top of my posts. The desired location would be under the AUTHOR/DATE line, under the top SHARE THIS line, or below the featured image in the post.
I was able to access the loop-single-1.php file in the editor. However, the screencast above from Caitlin is no longer active. I’m hesitant to attempt this change in the editor without having the visual of what line to move and where to place it. Would it be possible to repost the screencast showing what line to move and where to put it so my tags appear at the top of my posts?
Thank you in advance!
Hi Calin,
thank you for your help. It’s still not exactly clear to me, though. I’ve done the following:
– I’m using the default post layout. There is also a ‘style-1’ for posts, but I’m not using that.
– copied single_template_1.php + loop-single-1.php from the td-composer/legacy/Newsmag/parts/single folder.
– adjusted the loop-single-1.php file to suit my needs and uploaded it to the root of the child theme.
– the changes are not there. Are these two files actually the ones used for ‘default’? I’m in doubt, because for posts, you can also select style-1. But in the legacy/…/single folder, there are no ‘default’ loop-single or single_template files…
See the screenshot for an example of how it’s not working correctly in your theme: https://snipboard.io/NCvpsg.jpg
I created a function to add “[Expired]” to the title of my posts if the post is tagged expired. It works fine on the post title, latest post widgets and other places but not on the Newspaper Posts Loop element or Mega Menu. Why are you not allowing the add_filter() function to the title? and/or how do I configure this to work properly with Newspaper?
Here is my code for reference:
add_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘my_title_prefix_filter’, 10, 2 );
function my_title_prefix_filter( $title, $post_id ) {
$posttags = get_the_tags();
if( $post_id == get_the_ID() && $posttags ){
foreach($posttags as $tag) {
if ($tag->name == “expired”) {
$title = ‘<span class=”expired_text”>[Expired]</span> ‘ . $title;
}
}
}
return $title;
}
I have “Show Modified Date” unchecked on the Posts Loop element Layout configuration but my posts are still showing the Modified Date in the post’s meta information instead of the Published Date.
How do I keep the featured images from cropping shown in the screenshot? I have the height set to 100% in the Posts Loop layout settings but it still crops: https://snag.gy/yYkeHd.jpg
Hi Vlad,
The same bug appears on the date template too. It also uses the “Posts Loop” element. I just need to use two of them at the same time, that’s all.
Hi guys,
On a category page (Cloud Library) I want 6 posts in a loop on desktop an 4 posts on mobile. I thought I would do it by copying the post loop block and hiding it on certain devices. But when I set the mobile block to 4 posts, it also shows 4 on the desktop even though it shows six in tagdiv composer. Is this a known problem? https://bit.ly/2KGxpwU
Hi,
I want to use a cloud template for category archive pages with two “Posts Loop” elements, but it does not work properly.
The first element has to show the first three most recent articles without any pagination or offset.
The second one has to show the rest of the recent articles with ajax pagination of six articles at a time and an offset of 3 posts (which are already shown in the first element). The second element does not show the proper six posts, but only the first three without using the offset. It only shows the proper content if pagination is used.
Hi,
Please notice that the “Latest Articles” is part of page template and this can be change only in the theme core; a better idea would be to use the Default template and set a posts loop element ( this is an element “Latest Articles”) with tagDiv Composer where you want in the page.

Hi,
I use the Newspaper mobile theme. In the theme panel you can place a shortcode for an ad and let it appear after a certain number of posts (default after 5 posts). I wonder if it is possible to place multiple ads. I’d like to place mobile ads after post number 3 and 5 or even more.
Is this possible?
How do I create a Posts Loop that displays my blog posts vertical (image above the text) on desktop and horizontal (image to the right of text) on mobile so more posts fit on a mobile screen?
