Hello,
For the category template, please use a posts loop; if you have set a posts loop, it will display all posts in this category. Alternatively, you can use Flex Block/Big Grid Flex and set the filter to “Category -Current category” => https://i.imgur.com/7P99qx0.png. This is why the block will display posts for each category.
Thank you!
Hello Calin,
I appreciate your assistance. Unfortunately the last article you posted assumes that it works as it should, but it does not. The proper authors are appearing in the post editor, but this is not displaying on the home, archive page or the post page.
So, according to your input, I have added the code prescribed on the post exactly. (Following https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/regarding-adding-multiple-authors-on-newspaper-theme/). Pasted code into child theme function.php. Added code to loop-single-2.php and single_template_2.php which is the primary template.
Again, this did not impact the homepage, listing page, or the post page:
See staging site:
https://nondoc1dev.wpenginepowered.com/category/sports/
This page has posts attributed to guest author Jeremy Cowen in the editor:
https://nondoc1dev.wpenginepowered.com/2023/12/23/big-man-on-campus-ryan-minor-made-memories-at-ou/
This shows all posts attributed:
https://nondoc1dev.wpenginepowered.com/author/jeremy-cowen-contributor-in-chief/
I have cleared caches. Do I have any recourse?
Thank you
Hello,
My site is hosted on VPS & LiteSpeed Web Server & LiteSpeed Cache Plugin.
All cached pages have an issue with the paging buttons from Single Related Posts, Flex Block 1, Flex Block 3, Flex Block 4 and Posts Loop Modules of Newspaper theme.
When a request is sent to admin-ajax.php as a filter, it will have a security token, this is called a nonce.
This token is valid for 12-24 hours so I usually have this problem for less than a day because the page is still cached but the token has expired so it ends up with a 403 error.
To fix this issue, I need to add the nonce name to the ESI nonce list in LiteSpeed Cache Plugin.
Now please tell me what code generates this security token on action td_ajax_block.
Best regards
Hello @newspatron !
The Posts Loop element has only an option to exclude post IDs.
If you would like to use a Flex Block instead, then there is an option to exclude the categories: Multiple terms filter – This option allows you to filter the posts by multiple categories. The procedure is similar to the one used on Post ID filter. Add the category IDs separated by commas (ex: 13,23,18). If you want to exclude categories, add a ‘-’ symbol in front of each ID. If you want to display posts from a category and remove the posts included in one of its sub-categories, first add the parent category ID (ex. Fashion category – 341) and after it places the sub-category ID (ex. Daily subcategory id: 342) with a ‘-’ symbol in front. If you decide to use the ‘Multiple terms filter,’ the standard Category Filter is ignored.
Documentation is here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/
Unfortunately, you can’t use two filter options.
We will take your query into consideration in the future.
Thank you!
Hello, in order to omit certain posts, i have decided to create categories from not appearing on the home page. i have used the “posts loop” on the home page.
how can i achieve this?
i cannot enter the too many posts that i want to be excluded from the home page.
for example i write 5 posts on the same topic i only want 1 of them to show up in the posts loop. because the rest of 4 would be thin posts such as q and a relating to post published earlier, or some quick update to the article.
can you suggest a best way to achieve – How to skip [categories] or posts from the posts loop.
it would be great if this can be selected from the post itself.
there is a sticky button in the wordpress post controls. can we have similar something for skipping from loops.
please reply.
also one feature suggestion.
Since news are dynamic. almost everyday some topic of a wordpress post has an update. in order to post updates to an already published post, i tried using a couple of plugins, however it didnt work well as it slowed the site down. However here is an example of what i am trying to achieve. ”
A timeline to an existing post. ”
see below.
here is an example plugin
https://wordpress.com/plugins/post-timeline/newspatron.com
here is a typical use case scenario and its bare minimum practical example
[given the case that dynamic developments happen to a given already published post]

Thanks for your understanding.
Hello,
I have created a template for custom taxonomies, and use flex loop fitlers for filtering my posts, but dropdown of flex loop filters not working. and also the count of posts are not correct. https://www.ankasam.org/bolgeler/af-pak/

Hi,
Unfortunately, those can not be displayed on the posts loop block.
Thank you!
Morning Anamaria, many thanks for getting back to my question.
You can find the option I am trying to select here

Many thanks

Posts Loop doesn’t bring the most recent posts.
ex. https://capitallinkshipping.com/category/contributors/alibra/
but as you can see there are newest posts.
https://capitallinkshipping.com/alibra-weekly-market-report-week-24/
If I use the default layout it will display the whole posts.
How can be fixed?

Hello @forcenews !
Please edit the search page with the tagdiv Composer, click on the results(Posts Loop element) and delete the value of the offset posts. Let it empty with no space no value: https://app.screencast.com/Gh9jDf6t0XtLS
If you use a flex block there, then please set the special filter there Search – Current search.
Save the changes and view the results.
I hope that helps you!
Thank you!
Hi Guys, on my global category archive template as well as the main post loop I also want to show a flex block 1 with posts from the same/current category that also have a custom taxonomy for ‘Location’.
If I drop a flex block 1 into the page, set the Filter to ‘Current Category’ and then in the ‘Multiple terms filter’ add the ID of the taxonomy for the ‘Asia’ Location which is ’11’, the flex block 1 fetches anything with this custom taxonomy, not just posts from the current category.
Is there any way to achieve this with the flex block 1 filters?
Thanks
Matt
Hello,
Thank you for answer!
I didn’t mean gap in module “posts loop”. I mean gap between ad box and posts loop – https://monosnap.com/file/RGoghaUXPRqX6a25vLrSg2RuRWQs1F
I can’t reduce it.
Thank you!

Hello,
You can’t use two filters at the same time; you can use a post ID or filter category.
You can customize the category template. For the category template, please use a posts loop; if you have set a posts loop, it will display all posts in this category. Alternatively, you can use Flex Block/Big Grid Flex and set the filter to “Category -Current category” => https://i.imgur.com/7P99qx0.png. This is why the block will display posts for each category.

This 2nd block is created using the Flex Loop Builder. It has pagination. When you select 3,4,5 etc. page it is continuously showing the same posts.
I’m using a module template (created from scratch) comprised of 3 separate flex blocks.

Hello! I’m working on customizing the content loop for my homepage using the Custom Loop Builder. My goal is to design an unbalanced composition featuring 1 large square and 4 smaller ones. However, whenever I choose a pre-created (by me) module in the Flex Loop Builder, it keeps repeating the same posts. Could you please advise me on what I might be doing incorrectly?
+ Can I somehow include a plugin shortcode inside of the post meta? I want to display “timeread” for my posts and plugin only enables it within the article but not post previews.
Hello,
I checked the website, and it is underconstruction.
The social icons from the mobile menu come from the Theme Panel -> Social/Apis -> Social Networks -> https://i.imgur.com/kKYIECB.png. Remove/edit them as needed.
If you using the Flex Block or Big Grid Flex in the layout is the option “Show author”, and you can choose to hide => https://www.screencast.com/t/6UPXQbiTO2

Hi @Bettina,
thanks for your quick response. The date and time formats you mention basically control only the sequence of hour, minute, day, month, year and the way they are displayed. But all these show a date and time based on the Gregorian Calendar.
On our website we also want to show date and time based on the Hebrew Calendar which – like the Hindu and Islamic Calendar – is calculated completely different than the Gregorian Calendar. The plugin we are using is doing exactly that : It displays a date and time based on the Gregorian and Hebrew calendar.
Unfortunately this only works on the first page in the posts loop.
Can you give me a hint on what’s done differently in displaying the dates between the first page and the following pages? Maybe there’s something the plugin developer can do to make the plugin compatible with the Newspaper theme.
Thanks!
Hi all
I decided to write here because it will help those who have the same problem
Thanks to the support service, they solved this issue, much gratitude!
This was my omission in the template settings (theme panel)
For some reason, I was convinced that the settings of an individual category template were higher in priority than the general settings, but in certain cases this is not the case.
In this case, the culprit was a disabled parameter – in the screenshot.
Hi haipo, what you can do is to reduce the aria of search in database to posts (add post type post on search element and loop post – https://i.imgur.com/IxFLXqi.png – https://i.imgur.com/5uUIbvP.png also make sure that you are using a proper thumb for images – https://i.imgur.com/fTelJDO.png a big images will slow the results.
Also you can use a Cloudflare (CDN) to speed up the results.
I hope this will help you!
Hello
I set the switch in the Posts Loop module to the “Date – Show” position, but the dates are not displayed in the composer and on the page
The “Button – Show” switch works, the “Author – Show” switch works. But the date is not. It even seems that the parameter returns an empty value.
Example: https://birincimusic.com/category/relizy
What could be the problem? Thank you.
Hello,
We do not recommend setting two posts loop on the same page/template, because most of the settings from the first loop element will be set for the second one.
A workaround is to use flex blocks, and set the ads after each flex block and using the offset option -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/offset-feature/
Thank you!
