Hello Babo,
You could remove the padding from the main container with 4px, but we do not know if it will affect other parts of the website. This modification interferes with the column display and can cause different problems along the way. Every element is in relation to one an other. If you really need this modification you can use this custom css:
.single-post .td-main-content{
padding-left:22px!important;
padding-right:22px!important;
}
But if you want to play it safe and not risk other problems, you can regenerate your thumbs locally (it will take a bit of time) and then upload them to your website. You can use a plugin like force regenerate thumbs.
If you chose the css method, if problems occur in the future because of this, please point out this modification to us.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/ it should fix this issue.
This was a major update as the Newspaper 6 is practically a new theme, all the code was rewritten. You should not have now any issues with the new versions of the theme, we will just add new features, some fixes that should not create any issues. It will not be any major changes to the theme code in the near future.
Thanks!
Hi
1. Please make sure that you follow our documentation in order to add a new menu item: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-main-menu/
2. I’ve checked a few posts from your site an noticed that the featured images are missing. Try to same the permalinks under Settings > Permalinks: http://screencast.com/t/qdJQQSawVo regenerate your thumbs: https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/ clear all caches, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and test again. Note that we didn’t test the theme with re-post/cloning plugins so I can’t say how will work with them. Also the theme does not set automatically a featured image for posts, you will have to do this manually.
3. The images are displayed fine now. If this happens again try to deactivate lazy load animation and all others plugins except Visual Composer then test again.
Thanks!
Hello George,
Unfortunately, you have to regenerate your thumbnails again by using a different thumb regenerate plugin.
Try it with force regenerate thumbs.
Thanks.
Hi,
1. Just set a description for your category(ies) – http://screencast.com/t/48oLwJpE3E and set style 6 for your category, also upload a background image – http://screencast.com/t/BhtuUzhR
Please provide a link so we can take a look if you have issue with this.
2. If you want to change the size of a specific thumb you have to edit td_config.php file. Here you can find and the thumb size that are created and used on modules – http://screencast.com/t/iN6Z1VaVqQw.
As you can see this size is used on more modules and blocks, so if you don’t want to change this for all elements, you can easily add a new size there(just copy all the thumb code and change the size) – http://screencast.com/t/sLm5MMcGf and use it on a specific module(for example module 10 is used on block 11 ) – http://screencast.com/t/SyNHPWYo Don’t forget to regenerate your thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
The theme doesn’t have an option to change the background color for content, but on page content if you use Visual Composer pagebuilder you can add a background color to the row – http://screencast.com/t/szuzQftGrOm – http://screencast.com/t/Awsua5q1b1K
Thanks!
Hi there,
With regard to featured image quality, I regenerated thumbnails this morning and happened to see all images quality has shrinked to a greater extent. Kindly advice. How do I improve or revert back to original state.
Thanks!
Hi,
I’m having an issue with thumbnails size. Not all thumbnails dimensions are created for my featured images and the result is the one you can see here, with the image that is not cropped and overlaps the contents below (Block 18)
I ran both “Regenerate thumbnails” and “Force regenerate thumbnails” plugin with no result.
If I see their output I see that not all dimensions are generated for each image, as you can see here
(the one of the screenshot above should have been td_696x385)
Finally, this is the part of my td_config.php file that goes about thumbnails sizes. All thumbnails sizes are active in the theme control panel
/**
* the thumbs used by the theme
* Thumb id => array parameters. Wp booster only cuts if the option is set from theme panel

Hi,
This is basic functionality of Wordress and also the theme use this. The small images are not automatically enlarged by WOrdpress or by the theme(only cropped), but can be enlarged via custom css or try to use a plugin like Thumbnail Upscale in combination with Force Regenerate.
If you want to use css please add this code in Theme Panel > Custom Css – http://screencast.com/t/Wd8FeCrgE
.td_block_big_grid_1 .td-big-thumb .entry-thumb {
height: 100%;
}
Hope this helps!
Hello Alfredo,
The thumbnail size of big grid 3 is 534 X 462. Please make sure your images are bigger than these sizes otherwise your images will not fit the big grid. As for the YouTube video thumbnail, the theme does not control the image size of the YouTube video’s featured image. You could try to regenerate your thumbs using ‘Force regenerate’ and if the problem is still there, you can use the ‘Thumbnail upscale’ plugin.
Thank you!
I see.
I still can’t understand why WordPress nor plugin “Regenerate thumbnail images” could generate thumbnail images.
Only using wp-cli command could generate them.
Do you have any suggestion?
Hello Andy,
I have checked your website on mobile phones and the images seem fine. I don’t know how they are blurred. If you still experience this issue you can try to regenerate your thumbnails using force regenerate plugin.
Thank you!

Hello guys, check my site: desarrollotrazos.ucse.edu.ar
when you get there you’ll see at the HOME screen that some of the thumbs sizes aren’t ok.
How can i fix that?
Already had and used 3 plugins (force regenerate thumbnails and regenerate thumbnails + upscale thumbnails), yet the result is the same to me.
I suffer the same issue as many here, my thumbs at home and also in articles doesn’t load. So as a result i can’t see them at my HOME page.
site: desarrollotrazos.ucse.edu.ar
What should i do?
already disabled that option (lazy load) yet, nothing happened.
can’t see my new thumbs even tho i regenerate them.
Should i Upscale them with some plugin? or maybe tweak my wp-config (memory setup)? i mean… mine is 40 the theme recommend 64…should i put that amount or more?

Hello,
In order for your images to fit properly you have to regenerate your thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/.
If the images are too small and do not fit the container you can use a plugin named thumbnail upscale which enlarges your images to fit.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
i try Force Regenerate Thumbnails, Regenerate Thumbnails, Thumbnail Upscale and AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild. But problem still continue. My site is http://www.gurmetech.net
HEllo,
You can try using a different regenerate thumb plugin like Force regenerate thumbs https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/
Also check if you have the right permissions for uploading.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions
Another thing you can do is check if you have GD Library Installed. You can see it in your cpanel. If not, contact your hosting provider.
Thank you.
Hello Snaru,
For your images to fit in the big grid you have to regenerate your thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/.
If the images are too small and do not fit the container you can use a plugin named thumbnail upscale which enlarges your images to fit.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello Rita,
1) Make sure you check all these options in the panel: http://screencast.com/t/n6nQwEkug and regenerate your thumbails using ‘force regenerate’ plugin. You can also use a thumbnail upscale plugin if your images are too small.
You can set the block to display the latest posts: http://screencast.com/t/uRGQJziZ and set a post limit of 20: http://screencast.com/t/cYMimmmkfu
2) You can create your page in visual composer without a sidebar and set the layout to a 2/3 + 1/3 and add your visual composer elements do the right side of the page: http://screencast.com/t/GkYeBHGUTk including an image element
This is how our default homepage is built.
You can read more here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can also watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgWqozuqmJk
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hello tnguyen27,
The plugin you installed is not needed as the theme already handles image thumbnails. The plugin overrides this option and may cause a conflict. Please disable all your plugins except visual composer, and regenerate you thumbs https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks.
Hi
Try this guide and regenerate the thumbnails for all your images: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ also check in browser console if there are some errors, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test again. If this does not help try to deactivate the lazy load animation from template settings: http://screencast.com/t/i7sTXja7keD then check again.
Let me know ho it goes and if the problem persist please provide your site url so I can inspect this closer.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please explain why the theme doesn’t use small size for feature images?
Of course, I have done the following actions:
– Install and activate the theme
– Install Simple-image-sizes plugin
– Regenerate the thumbnails
You might need to add the “thumbnail upscale” plugin and THEN do the regenerate thumbnails.
I think some people use the force regenerate plugin instead on some servers which have the timeout set to short for php scripts … where it literally times out.
You can also double check you increased the default memory for WP from 40MB to something like 128MB in your wp-config.php file —
I’ve never used the “force regenerate” plugin myself — but I’m rockin quad xeons and 32GB RAM on our server so we’ve got power to spare for stuff like that.
