Hi everyone of tagdiv,
after searching the forum for hours – but still not finding the right answer, I hope you can help me again…
Please take a look on the attached photo and follow the red arrows. On these selected boxes and single post page is always a little grey shade on top of the photos.
Can you give me the CSS codes on how to remove these shades.
You can take a look at http://www.pureglam.tv
It should be – “Slide, Big Grid4, Block1, Block14”
For most magazines it looks great but for my blog – it is not perfect… 🙂
Thank you for your assistance…
Best
Vanessa
Dear tagDiv team,
I would like to remove the space that separates the Logo & Menu from the Image Grid on my front page.
This area: http://i.imgur.com/SjkQp5U.jpg Link to front page: http://bit.ly/1Ytfdu8
Also, is there a way to get the title, date, author & comment counter to also be on top of this image, like when I choose a layout with full size images? For example, I’d like to do that on this post: http://bit.ly/1NxhNDR
If yes, I would also love to remove the empty space that separates the image & sidebar on the right from the logo & menu.
Thanks a lot for your help!
Hi,
I have removed your credentials, I suggest to send email at contact@tagdiv.com when you want to provide admin access and do not post here user and pass.
Anyway please edit your homepage and check Big Grid Slider settings and change the sort order(to latest or other sort order) or tag your articles as featured, you don’t have any featured articles so in this case is nothing to show on block – http://screencast.com/t/t3KVAZjd4H5 – http://screencast.com/t/moBAvOGr
TagDiv Label and TagDiv Invoice are optional plugins and they work only with Woocommerce plugin. If you don’t have a shop on your site you can disable them, you can read more about them here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-woo-invoice-plugin/
Thanks!
Hello Josh,
I have removed your login information from your post as this is a public forum. IT seems ALL your problems are caused by a plugin incompatibility. Once I disabled all your plugins except visual composer all the issues were fixed. (retina logo works, thumbs now show up, video displays properly, mega menu works) Please try to find the plugins that cause these issues and remove/replace them as they are creating conflicts. Not all plugins work with our theme. This is the case with every premium theme out there. Next time you see any issue that does not appear on our official demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/ then plugins are the number one reason, then comes server configuration and customization.
Unfortunately the category tags on the homepage cannot be customized. You can assign a color for the category tag but it will only display on the post itself.
I hope this helps.
Thank you and best of luck on your project.
Hi Guys
For some uknown reason the admin bar when you are seeing a page/post/site that used to overlay the top and allow quick access to editing . . has gone missing.
I’ve searched all the settings and cant find what may have done this.
Is there any updates that TAGDIV may have sent down that remove this bar or VC?

Hi Tagdiv,
On my smartlist, “Related Posts” has been assigned a list number. I would like it to not do that. How can I remove the “5” from in front of Related Posts for this and all future smart lists that I use?

Hello,
Thank you for purchasing our theme.
1) The ‘archives’ text can be removed by using a plugin called SEO YOAST.(not controlled by the theme)
2) You can insert a search field in pages or posts but not on a category page. The theme does not have such an option unfortunately. You can implement it but it will require customization of the theme files.
3)In order to increase your page speed, you will need to do a little reading yourselves. You can follow this guide to help you out: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
Thank you for your message.
Hi
@paty0323 please note that is a public forum and any one can see the information posted here, so I removed your login details.
Make sure you did a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ update also the plugins that come with the theme files from the /plugins folder. If you’re using child theme deactivate it during the update process, switch to default wp theme.
During the update process deactivate all plugins, and after the update is complete enable them back one by one and cheek if the site’s functionality is affected or not by one of your plugins.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hello there, i found what is causing the issue. It has to do with multibyte (UTF-8) characters, preg replace and json_encode.
If a title ends with capital greek letter pi Π (and possibly other multibyte characters) then something happens between your preg replace and the final json_encode. I guess the preg replace returns malformed characters, which in turn will make json_encode to fail to encode the final output, resulting in the ajax load more articles to fail.
the problem in: td_ajax.php near line 115
// remove whitespaces form the ajax HTML
$search = array(
'/\>[^\S ]+/s', // strip whitespaces after tags, except space
'/[^\S ]+\</s', // strip whitespaces before tags, except space
'/(\s)+/s' // shorten multiple whitespace sequences
);
$replace = array(
'>',
'<',
'\\1'
);
$buffy = preg_replace($search, $replace, $buffy);
quick fix to get rid of this thing, temporarily: just comment-out the preg_replace line so it becomes:
// $buffy = preg_replace($search, $replace, $buffy);
i had no time to investigate further due to busy schedule, but i suspect that when multibyte characters pass through preg_replace INTERNALS they are treated as non-multibyte characters, in most circumstances each multibyte character is treated as two non-multibyte characters.
so lets say multibyte “Π” character goes into preg_replace and it is becoming two characters: a weird character(1) followed by a space(2). if whatever preg_replace will do, return the characters as-is, then no problem. “Π” was seen as two characters, but its two halves(1)+(2) got returned again together so no problem. The problem is that if that “Π” is at the end of the post’s title, then it is seen as i said as two characters: a weird character(1) followed by a space(2) BUT that (2) space is matched from your pattern and gets removed. So now preg_replace returns HALF the “Π” character (only the weird (1) character since the (2) space got removed). This makes json_encode to fail due to malformed characters and of course the ajax pagination to fail.
Long-term Solutions? maybe something multibyte safe instead of preg_replace like mb-ereg-replace? Or just simply drop that trimming anyway. Why do it in the first place?
p.s. also it would be unpleasant if a multibyte characters gets split into two characters and one of them is a double quote. just saying.
Hello,
Unfortunately there is no option for it in our theme. You will have to edit the theme files and add a custom function for it. You can remove certain post styles by following this method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/hide-post-templates/
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hi
To remove article inline ads from articles which are in a specific category you need to add a condition like here: http://screencast.com/t/JS2Gloru
and !in_coategory('category name/slug/id')
Just add your category name or tag or id inside the indicated function. Note that if a post belongs to more categories you need to add all those category inside the function. In thet case the code will look like this:
and !in_coategory(array('cat1', 'cat2'))
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hello razakey,
Replied here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-remove-navigation-menu-from-sidebar-2/#post-88436
Thank you!
Hello!
In post settings > post and custom post types, I turned everything off
category tags
author name
date
post views
comment count
tags
As well as turning off these under sharing
top article sharing
top article like/tweet
Now theres a lot of white space padding above and below the headline, how can I remove that white space (assuming its a placeholder for the items I turned off)
I want my post title to have a little padding of course but be as close as possible to the navigation
Some custom css to add to the theme panel would be helpful!
Thanks in advance!
Hello gunner05,
1)The Block 5 use module 3, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/4YfTmYY6l If you want to change the Block 5, you have to change this module. You can reduce the padding-bottom in your block with the CSS code below but the left-right you do not change because you will damage the layout. The width is fixed and you cannot change of this without damage.
.td_module_3 {
padding-bottom: 10px;
}
The result you should see here: http://screencast.com/t/8OC0YY9MQh
2)Unfortunately, this animation does not come from the theme. If you want to remove this feature you have to remove the option from js. file from Visual Composer and it is not a simple task, sorry.
3)Unfortunately, our theme does not have this feature implemented. The more article box option displays only the active posts, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/P5I5MwcsBc For more information about more article box, please check our documentation, here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/more-articles-box/
4)In principle, should not be any problem with this, but noticed that the dimension of the logo will be adjusted by the theme according to header style used.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
1) Unfortunately the plugin is not tested to work with our theme so we cannot assure it’s functionality. Not all plugins work with our theme but this is the case for all premium themes as they are custom made and plugin sometimes cannot recognize the code or conflict with it. Unfortunately we cannot offer support for plugin implementation.
2)Post style 4 does not show the caption of the featured image by default. It does show the caption for other images except the featured one. This is the default behavior of the theme.
The post style number does not match from newsmag to newspaper. This happens when switching to another theme. There is an alternative if you do not wish to change the post template manually that involves editing the database and resenting all posts to the default template and then you can simply add the template you want for all your posts from the theme panel/ Please follow this topic to see how it can be done: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-style-of-multiple-posts-at-once/
3)Mega-menus were not meant to display in the mobile version of the website.
4) Unfortunately the ‘go to top’ options was hidden on the mobile version. You can activate it with custom css if you want:
.td-scroll-up-visible {
display: block!important;
}
5)The speedbooster plugin has a function that checks for active plugins. There is a list of plugins speedbooster is compatible with – http://screencast.com/t/hcjLnOqh4i2 so if you have other plugins active it will be automatically disabled.
In order to use the tagdiv speedbooster with all plugins you will need to remove this code – http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Well, did you “disable” the comments in the WP panel ?
You also disable them in the theme panel ?
Most FB comments plugins have directions on how to do this, as far as I know.
If they still show on a post, you might need to use a plugin which completely hides the existing comments; or perhaps more simply just remove the comment block from the post template you happen to be using and then only the plugin would show there, inserted at the end of the post text area.
If you don’t know how to do that, TagDiv support can provide a pointer to do that.
Hello Catalin,
It seems that your code only works in single post. How to remove authors link on the homepage, category, page and tag? Thank you in advance.
Hello Navneet,
You can remove the Vimeo&Vkontakt icon from Theme panel, like this: http://screencast.com/t/RMx1QW96F20C and the Linkedin exist in our list of icons, like this: http://screencast.com/t/97oPJVZMC
If you want to add another social icon, please consult this topic, here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-add-xing-as-a-social-network/#post-58011
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hi,
We are sorry for the inconvenience caused by the update to version 6 but eventually you will need to update your theme to the latest version as more and more features will not work anymore due to updates to wp or php or plugins so version 4 is getting deprecated slowly but surely. Please allow some time and update your theme. Do it on a testing site (sub-domain) and see how bad the damage will be…It will not be as drastic as you may think. We tried our best to maintain compatibility between version 4 and version 6. You will only need to remove a few widgets from the side-bar, and recreate a few elements in visual composer. You will probably have to reset the post templates to their default from the DB. Luckily there is an easy method to do it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-style-of-multiple-posts-at-once/
Thank you!
Hi
You can change the category tags color using this css in theme panel > custom coe > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/UgTWfNJa
.td-post-category {
background-color: #6dab3c !important;
}
You can remove the links for category tag by replacing the atag with p in td_module.php file: http://screencast.com/t/PDixd8vKg
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
I have one special category that i use just for posts i want to show in slides/grid on homepage. I have ability/setting to hide it inside posts, but not on blocks
Before, i used plugin Simple Custom post order, to order categories and it worked fine. But then i had problem with this one called “Aktuelno”. And because i read that default order of primary categories is alphabetical i changed its name to -Aktuelno- and it was ok for some time.
Recently it showed up again at the top, i cant do anything to remove it except to manually choose primary category in every post.
Dear tagdiv team,
I need some help applying the following changes to my site:
– removing the bar and the extra space on top of the Main Menu & Logo
– I want to add a hovering effect to the main menu, where the background of each button (not just by underlining it) switches from white background + black text to orange background + white text.
– I would like to make the two grid-images a little smaller, while staying center-aligned
– how can I remove the lines (——-) on top of the article excerpts on the main page?
– when disabling the visibility of date, author and comment count from the posts, how can I remove the empty space underneath the title of each article?
Here’s the link to my site btw: http://bit.ly/1Ytfdu8
Thanks a lot, I’m loving your theme 🙂
Hello,
This is a public forum and other members of the forum can see what you post here. I removed your login information from the post. Sorry you got hacked, it seams people do not have better things to do.
Please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin and ftp access so we can take a look and see why the code does not apply.
Thank you!
Hello,
We are sorry for the inconvenience of the update, First of all, did you run the update script? That is an important step If you updated from version 4 to the latest version, the update script must be run for the shortcodes to change. Unfortunately the update script was removed in the current version and we will have to provide it via email. Please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to this topic so we can provide the update script in order for you to run it. Please also provide a link to your website as all your requests must be done on your website (we cannot recreate the issues on our end) and also include a link to this topic.
I will try to answer the questions that do not involve access to your website
1) You can change the title for big grid 2 by using this css:
.td_module_mx9 .td-big-grid-meta h3{
font-size:20px!important;
}
2) you can deactivate these features for the whole website from here: http://screencast.com/t/7O9whCMbZ , but this also removes the meta from the post as well. If you only want to remove it from that particular big grid, you can use css to do it like so:
.td_module_mx9 .td-module-meta-info{
display:none;
}
3)The zoomong effect is handled by the lazyload animation. In order to remove this effect you need to change this setting:
http://screencast.com/t/CQazK7EQB3Zw
4) we need a link to inspect it.
5) The theme does not stretch images to fit the container, it only crops images. In order to get your image to fit the container you can either upload bigger images or use the thumbnail upscale plugin.
6) We need a website to inspect and an example of what padding you need to adjust
7) We need to inspect the issue.
8) The cause could be the system status parameters. Please try to get all these options green like so:
http://screencast.com/t/z9DGWDEmpKFR
You can follow this guide to do it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
Bogdan, wasnt able to find a is_post_type(sponsored) function so if anyone else has this issue you can modify this conditional https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/remove-ads-in-certain-postpage/ to look for a tag “sponsored” which worked like a charm
wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/shortcodes/td_block_ad_box.php
on line 27, I added added
if (has_tag(sponsored)) {
return;
}
Thanks again for the help!
