regenerate thumbnails works well for me …
we had a site with 10,000+ images (launched in Dec 2005 on WordPress), and the “regenerate thumbnails” plugin worked well.
We also used Auto Post Thumbnail PRO for the ooooold content first time to get a featured image and/or default featured image for really old stuff with TINY images.
Make sure you up your base memory limit in the wp-config.php file (WP defaults to 40MB, but really needs 128 or 256 these days), and make sure you backup your old image folder if you want to keep a safe copy of that (which, ahem, you should be doing periodically anyway).
If you want to do best practice:
a) check the sizes of the new layout and “know” which sizes you plan to use for your modules
b) change the 3 small/medium/large sizes in the WP media settings to match 3 most common; but make sure large is not larger than size files you plan to upload
c) look in the NEW theme panel at the modules image sizes control, and turn OFF the sizes you don’t plan to use (note possible need for the preview image in search box!)
d) regenerate thumbnails
make some coffee while that’s running. 🙂
Should work marvelously!
Hi,
currently i’m using v4 newspaper,
I read instructions to upgrade to v6 (https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ ) but I saw that the images have different format from v4 to v6.
As I have over 2000 images, think is right and healthy to regenerate the thumbs in the follow way?
https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/
or perhaps you need to regenerate the images only coming from another theme
and between v4 and v6 you do not have to do anything to the pictures?
thanks
Hi,
Yes, there is a guide how to update the theme – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ I suggest to delete the old theme, then upload version 6. Also disable all your plugins when you update and then update the theme’s plugins, you can find them in the /plugins folder. You may have to re-add widgets on the sidebars.
Don’t forget to regenerate thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
Hope this helps!

Hi,
Theme has different header style that you can use, so if you want to use a bigger logo you can set a style that will display full size logo that you upload there – http://screencast.com/t/8Mk0SgEFe Please provide more details what you are trying to do and also your site URL so we can take a look if you refer to the default style and you want to remove padding from logo. This can be done only with custom css.
Please try to regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/ and also clear cache.
Thanks!
Hi,
@bastian-pl
Before update please backup the site (database and files) – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
We recommend to remove theme via FTP and install the new one and also the plugins that come with the theme files, you can find them it in the theme package inside the Plugins folder – http://screencast.com/t/lkrma6blYE
After the update run the script included in the Welcome panel – http://screencast.com/t/eZxxuqvsTir running the script it will import old settings and it will change the shortcode like you can see in the documentation. Also you need to regenerate the thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
Also check the documentation here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!
Hi,
Did you run the script?
Please make sure that you have updated the theme properly, first make a backup of your current theme installation, then remove the old theme(it should not remain old theme files) and upload the new theme version (you can try to do this via FTP), follow the documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ run the script and regenerate your thumbnails. Also update the theme plugins from the /plugins folder.
It seems to be an issue with Theme Panel(it will be fixed as soon as possible), so if you have Theme Panel grey/disabled please follow this solution – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/not-able-to-set-up-anything/
Also you can find the old theme version in old_version folder from package that you have downloaded from themeforest – http://screencast.com/t/C7W1dtMv6fEh
Hope this helps and sorry for inconvenience!
Hi,
1. Please provide a link so we can take a look if you still have this issue with thumbnails. Try also to regenerate only that image maybe it was not regenerated.
2. Try to change the module to display your articles on category page and save your settings as were added more features for category template – http://screencast.com/t/a2bJ1wNTh37U Also change the module for each template you may have issues also on search page for example – http://screencast.com/t/VoiG4Xjta7
3. Do you use speed booster? This usually happens because of the speed booster plugin which move the css and js at the bottom of the page structure so that the page will load faster, this is why the theme default color appears first then changes, because of the cascading property of css. A solution is to change the color directly into the css style-sheet, which will make your colors to load first and stay that way.
4. You can change the date format form WordPress settings – http://screencast.com/t/tHRb1anDA6R
Thanks!
Hi,
Please regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ you don’t have to use custom css if your images are large enough to be cropped.
Thanks!

Newspaper 6 no es una actualización de la versión 4. Es un rediseño interno completo del Theme, por lo tanto la manera óptima de hacerlo funcionar al 100% es realizar una instalación limpia.
¿Cómo realizar una instalación limpia de Newspaper?
– Entra en http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/themes.php
– Activa un theme diferente a newspaper
– Borra el antiguo newspaper
– Sube el archivo de Newspaper 6
– Activa Newspaper 6 e instala los plugins que vas a utilziar como speedbooster, social, etc.
– Ve a Install demos: http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_demos
– Selecciona el estilo que quieres utilizar para tu sitio web. NOTA: NO ACTIVES “Include content” porque eso importará el contenido original del theme como imágenes y post, salvo el hecho de que quieras importarlo para trabajar sobre ellos en tu sitio web.
– Listo, ya tienes newspaper 6 funcional. Ahora tienes que ir a http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_panel y ajustar a tu gusto con tu logotipos etc.
Te recomiendo seguir las instrucciones de las dimenciones en logotipos e imágenes que establece el theme como por ejemplo para el logo principal que sea de (272 x 90px) y no de mayores dimensiones. Esto ayudará a tener mejores tiempos de carga.
Cómo optimizar newspaper 6
El Newspaper utiliza otras dimensiones de imágenes para ciertas áreas por lo tanto es recomendable regenerar las thumbnails para que todas estén en el tamaño óptimo y funcionen a la perfección.
– Entra en http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php
– Instalar Regenerate Thumbnails, activarlo y ponerlo a funcionar. Lo encuentras en el menú “herramientas”
Vamos a eliminar elementos no útiles con ayuda de functions.php, este archivo lo encuentras en Apariencia + editor + functions.php . Nos posicionamos hasta el final del archivo functions.php y copiamos y pegamos el siguiente código
/* si usas jetpack, con esto eliminamos devicepx */
add_filter( 'jetpack_implode_frontend_css', '__return_false' );
function dequeue_devicepx() {
wp_dequeue_script( 'devicepx' );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'dequeue_devicepx', 20 );
/* FIN si usas jetpack, con esto eliminamos devicepx */
/* con esto hacemos los 2 jquery de wordpress en uno solo*/
function optimize_jquery() {
if (!is_admin()) {
wp_deregister_script('jquery');
wp_deregister_script('jquery-migrate.min');
wp_deregister_script('comment-reply.min');
$protocol='http:';
if($_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on') {
$protocol='https:';
}
wp_register_script('jquery', $protocol.'//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.0/jquery.min.js', false, '3.6', true);
wp_enqueue_script(‘jquery’);
}
}
add_action(‘template_redirect’, ‘optimize_jquery’);
/* FIN de con esto hacemos los 2 jquery de wordpress en uno solo*/
/*Otras optimizaciones */
function wpb_imagelink_setup() {
$image_set = get_option( ‘image_default_link_type’ );
if ($image_set !== ‘none’) {
update_option(‘image_default_link_type’, ‘none’);
}
}
add_action(‘admin_init’, ‘wpb_imagelink_setup’, 10);
function no_errors_please(){
return ‘Tu computadora se autodestruirá en 60 segundos!’;
}
add_filter( ‘login_errors’, ‘no_errors_please’ );
Damos clic en guardar o actualizar.
Newspaper 6 cuenta con Speedbooster, un plugin para mejorar el rendimiento aunque no funciona en todos los sitios web ya que hay que cumplir ciertas características, como por ejemplo tiene incompatibilidad con akismet y algunos otros plugins que comúnmente se utilizan.
Si tu sitio web solo usa el plugin visual composer, entonces puedes usar speedbooster. De lo contrario usaremos otro plugin.
Desactivaremos los AVATARES de Gravatar en: Ajustes + Comentarios + retiramos la opción mostrar Avatares.
Adicionalmente puedes utilizar el plugin “WP-Usuario-Avatar” para establecer un avatar cargado desde tu propio sitio web. Esto mejora drástica mente la velocidad de carga de una entrada con comentarios.
Cómo optimizar tu instalación de wordpress
Si tienes varios plugins vamos a desactivar y borrar TODOS los plugins que no usemos ni usaremos. Recuerda que entre menos plugins tengas instalados es mas veloz tu sitio web.
– Entra en http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php
– Instala Plugin Garbage Collector
Activamos garbage collector y lo iniciamos. Este plugin nos ayudará a borrar tablas de datos viejas para mejorar la velocidad de carga de la base de datos. Si no te permite eliminar tablas desde el plugin tendrás que hacerlo desde PHPMyAdmin y borrar manualmente las tablas en la base de datos.
– Instala plugin WP-Optimize
Activamos WPOptimize y hacemos una optimización completa de la base de datos.
Regresamos a la pestaña de plugins y desactivamos, thumbnails regenerate, garbage collector y wp-optimize.
PARA USUARIOS AVANZADOS
Entramos por FTP y editaremos el archivo wp-config.php Vamos a eliminar todos los comentarios y solo dejaremos las líneas esenciales. De este modo pesará menos y quedará algo como este ejemplo.
<?php
define('WP_HOME', 'http://www.yoursite/');
define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://www.yoursite/');
define('DB_NAME', 'yourbase');
define('DB_USER', 'youruser');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass');
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define('DB_COLLATE', '');
define('AUTH_KEY', 'your key');
define('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'your key');
define('LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'your key');
define('NONCE_KEY', 'your key');
define('AUTH_SALT', 'your key');
define('SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'your key');
define('LOGGED_IN_SALT', 'your key');
define('NONCE_SALT', 'your key');
$table_prefix = 'wp_';
define('WP_DEBUG', false);
if ( !defined('ABSPATH') )
define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__) . '/');
require_once(ABSPATH . 'wp-settings.php');
Guardamos cambios y subimos el archivo editado
PLUGINS DE CACHE
Para el test instalé Newspaper en un sitio de pruebas con el estilo TECH. Tengo la licencia de Zen Cache PRO y WP Rocket, aunque también probé con 2 plugins gratuitos como w3 cache y Wp Super Cache. El test fue realizado con GTMetrix, el servidor del sitio web está en españa.




NOTA: En lugar de Speed Booster recomiendo usar el plugin Above The Fold Optimization y solo excluir el archivo style.css

This tutorial is for all Those Who Also Serve speak Spanish and speak to people WHO Inglés. The tutorial is written in Spanish and Inglés.
Newspaper 6 is not an update of the version 4. It is a complete internal redesign of Theme, so the optimal way to make it work 100% is performing a clean install.
How to perform a clean installation of Newspaper?
– Enter http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/themes.php
– Enable a different theme to newspaper
– Delete the old newspaper
– Upload the file of Newspaper 6
– Turns Newspaper 6 and install plugins you will use as SpeedBooster, visualcomposer, social, etc.
– Go to Install demos: http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_demos
– Select the style you want to use for your website. NOTE: Do not select “Include content” because it will import the original content of the theme as images and post, except for the fact that you want to import it to work on them on your website.
– Ready, already you have 6 Functional newspaper. Now you have to go to http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=td_theme_panel and adjust to your taste with your logos etc.
I recommend following the instructions in the dimentions logos and images that set the theme as such for the main logo that is of (272 x 90px) and no larger. This will help to have better load times.
How to optimize newspaper 6
The Newspaper uses other dimensions of images to certain areas so it is advisable to regenerate the thumbnails are all in the optimal size and function perfectly.
– Enter http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php
– Install Regenerate Thumbnails, activate it and make it work. You find it in the menu “tools”
We will remove not useful elements using functions.php, you find this file under Appearance + editor + functions.php. We position until the end of functions.php file and copy and paste the following code
/* If you use jetpack, with this we remove devicepx */
add_filter ('jetpack_implode_frontend_css' '__return_false');
dequeue_devicepx function () {
wp_dequeue_script ('devicepx');
}
add_action ('wp_enqueue_scripts' 'dequeue_devicepx', 20);
/* END if you use jetpack, with this we remove devicepx */
/* 2 do with this jquery wordpress into one */
optimize_jquery function () {
if (! is_admin ()) {
wp_deregister_script ('jquery');
wp_deregister_script ('jquery-migrate.min');
wp_deregister_script ('comment-reply.min');
$ Protocol = 'http:';
if ($ _ SERVER ['HTTPS'] == 'on') {
$ Protocol = 'https:';
}
wp_register_script ('jquery', $ protocol '// ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.0/jquery.min.js', false, '3.6', true.);
wp_enqueue_script (‘jquery’);
}
}
add_action (‘template_redirect’ ‘optimize_jquery’);
/* End with this we jquery wordpress 2 into one */
/* Other optimizations */
wpb_imagelink_setup function () {
$ Image_set = get_option (‘image_default_link_type’);
if ($ image_set! == ‘none’) {
update_option (‘image_default_link_type’, ‘none’);
}
}
add_action (‘admin_init’ ‘wpb_imagelink_setup’, 10);
no_errors_please function () {
return ‘Your computer will self-destruct in 60 seconds!’;
}
add_filter (‘login_errors’ ‘no_errors_please’);
We click save or update.
Newspaper 6 features Speedbooster </ strong>, a plugin to improve performance but does not work at all as there are websites that meet certain characteristics, such as is incompatible with akismet and some other commonly used plugins .
If your website only uses the visual composer plugin, then you can use SpeedBooster. Otherwise we will use another plugin.
deactivate avatars Gravatar : Settings + Comments + withdrew the Show Avatars.
Additionally you can use the “WP-User-Avatar” plugin to establish an avatar loaded from your own site. This improves drastically loading speed of an post with comments.
How to optimize your wordpress installation
If you have multiple plugins we will deactivate and delete all plugins not to use or will use. Remember that the less have installed plugins is faster your website.
– Enter http://www.yoursite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php
– Install Plugin Garbage Collector
Activate and start garbage collector. This plugin will help us erase old data tables to improve loading speed of the database. If not let you delete tables from the plugin will have to do it from PHPMyAdmin and manually delete old tables in the database.
– Install plugin WP-Optimize
We WPOptimize activate and make a complete optimization of the database.
Back to the plugins tab and deactivate, regenerate thumbnails, garbage collector and wp-optimize.
FOR ADVANCED USERS
Walked through FTP and edit the file wp-config.php We will remove all comments and leave only the essential lines. This will weigh less and be something like this example.
<? Php
define ('WP_HOME', 'http: //www.yoursite/');
define ('WP_SITEURL', 'http: //www.yoursite/');
define ('DB_NAME', 'yourbase');
define ('DB_USER' 'youruser');
define ('DB_PASSWORD', 'pass');
define ('DB_HOST', 'localhost');
define ('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');
define ('DB_COLLATE', '');
define ('AUTH_KEY', 'your key');
define ('SECURE_AUTH_KEY', 'your key');
define ('LOGGED_IN_KEY', 'your key');
define ('NONCE_KEY', 'your key');
define ('AUTH_SALT', 'your key');
define ('SECURE_AUTH_SALT', 'your key');
define ('LOGGED_IN_SALT', 'your key');
define ('NONCE_SALT', 'your key');
$ Table_prefix = 'wp_';
define ('WP_DEBUG', false);
if (! defined ('ABSPATH'))
define ('ABSPATH', dirname (__ FILE__) '/'.);
require_once (ABSPATH 'wp-settings.php. ");
Save changes and upload the file
plugins CACHE
For Newspaper 6 TEST, i installed in a test site with TECH style. I have licence of Zen CAHE PRO and WP Rocket (the best cache plugins for wordpress), but also tried with 2 free plugins like w3 cache and WP Super Cache. The test was conducted with GTMetrix, the server of the website is in Spain.




NOTE: Instead of Speed Booster recommend using the Above The Fold Optimization plugin and only exclude the file style.css
Hello
First, BRAVO for your new update. It is really great!
However, I have 4 problems.
Here an image :
http://imageshack.com/a/img909/5994/koqJe9.png
1/ I regenerate all images with Force Regenerate Thumbnails and hope it will change.
I deleted W3 Total Cache so it is not a cache issue.
Still 1500 to go! 🙂
2/ I rename the theme folder, put the new one, delete old plugin, and install the 4 news one from your /include folder in the zip.
In the cateogories pages, I still have code instead of the elements.
Why ?
3/ Background and color
Since the v4, when I laod any page, instead of having my main color (for us purple) on the link and background, during half a second it is the light blue color theme appearing.
Why this informatoin a still load or in the base and not replace by
4/ After the name of the redactor, how I could change the format of the date to have french one aka for example 5 Février 2015 instead of fév 5, 2015?
Regards
Hi,
@muhannad Please make a backup of your current theme installation, then remove the old theme(it should not remain old theme files) and upload the new theme version (you can try to do this via FTP), follow the documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ run the script and regenerate your thumbnails. Also update the theme plugins from the /plugins folder.
It should work, please let me know!
Thanks!
Hi,
@Roney
Before update please backup the site (database and files) – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups And follow the documentation to update – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ run the script and regenerate thumbnails.
Thanks!

After the update run the script included in the Welcome panel – http://screencast.com/t/eZxxuqvsTir running the script it will import old settings, change the shortcode like you can see in the documentation. The theme has more features(example- big grid on categories, smartsidebar) so you will have to set those mannually. Also the custom css may not work at this it should be regarded as a new theme(changed classes, ids).
And regenerate the thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/
Also check the documentation here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!
Right .. well it’s a new theme not a dot update; all the grids, layouts, images CHANGED.
You need to regenerate your thumbnails to fit new layout, hence all the resize image errors seen in the GTMetrix check. Also need to update any tagdiv plugins, clear server side cache if using one, etc.
Optimize that one image which is 23KB too large (see the report link for which one).
When you change themes you need to regenerate thumbnails to fit the new modules/layouts/sizes.
Theme can’t do that for you, unfortunately.
Also this may help: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Here is the problem

Hi, does AJAX rebuild thumbnail plugin is heavy to the server?
I have used Regenerate Thumbnails plugin but I have over 2,000 images and it uses the maximum CPU usage (recived warning from host)
Hi,
Please make sure that you enable thumbs on blocks from Theme Panel > Block settings and then try to regenerate your thumbnails using this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
Thanks!
Hi,
@Christopher thanks!
@vtobing You can change the color of the Grid line on Newsmag theme if you want this – http://screencast.com/t/9wYZwr0k
1. Please try Christopher suggestion and use Regenerate thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ anyway I have checked your homepage and the thumbnails are displayed fine – http://screencast.com/t/EafYUovZba
2.
a. Not sure why do you have this issue, if you have articles on Featured category it should be displayed also on Big Slider.
b. You can use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css for Big Slider arrows – http://screencast.com/t/DtyeieMwq8e
.iosSlider.td_block_big_grid .td-icon-left, .iosSlider.td_block_big_grid .td-icon-right {
color: red !important;
}
Also for normal slider you can add a background to the arrows – http://screencast.com/t/bDrHvF5t7u
.iosSlider .prevButton, .iosSlider .nextButton {
background-color: red;
}
3. You can try to change the post style as default from Theme Panel > Post Settings – http://screencast.com/t/SoPnjVmiAjRR This option is overwritten by the ‘Post template’ option from the backend – post add / edit page.
4. To improve the pagespeed score please check if the following optimization are done on your side – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ – and this one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-pagespeed-2015/
Thanks!
I find the normal “regenerate thumbnails” works better than “force regen” plugin.
Try upping the memory allocated to WP in your wp-config.php file which MUST be done *in addition* to the php.ini/php memory setting for hosting account.
Newsmag is a ‘bordered’ site — it uses lines to show separation of different content areas; as clearly shown in site demo. Of course, you can hide the borders if you want to. Newspaper is more ‘open’ and ‘wider.’
Speed test “zero” ? Impossible unless page didn’t load. You would likely need to optimize your site, try following my sticky post and the theme docs.
This is different theme than Newsmag — so obviously not all the same options are available. However many of the cool features from Newsmag will be in “Newspaper 5” coming “really really soon now ….” (as free upgrade, per TagDiv folk).
Just food for thought; I do NOT work here 🙂
