Hi
Please make sure that your server meets the requirements specified in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-requirements-for-newsmag/ and also check if the parameters from system status have the values indicated here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
From our reports the theme requires more resources when on the page are loaded blocks which uses ajax pagination. When one of next/prev or load more buttons are clicked the theme make a request at admin-ajax.php file and the server must handle more requests.
Also there are many factors which can influence how your server handle the site. Try to configure the site in a very simple way so the queries number to be as low as possible. Try deactivate all plugin except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then check for a period of time how site is running.
We also recommend to use a plugin for cache. The theme is tested and works fine with WP Super Cache: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/ You could also use a cdn service and mysql query cache for a better optimizations and fewer queries: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ – http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/query-cache.html
I hope this helps!
Thanks!

Hi,
The arrow list is the only shortcode available for lists at the moment. There are no other styles implemented. if there were, they would be on the dropdown. We try to keep our theme as much as we can without custom coding requirements so every option that will be added will have a selector or dropdown so the user will not have to handle code at all.
Thank you!
Hi
The theme make a request to admin-ajax.php when on the page are used blocks with ajax pagination. When next/prev or load more button it’s pressed the theme make a request to this file to get the next posts. This is also valid from infinite load pagination. When the page it’s accessed by many visitors and on that page you have lots of blocks with pagination the server receive lots of requests and may be unable to handle them.
Try to increase the php memory to at least 64MB or if the host allows you can increase it more, also make sure that the parameters from system status have the values indicated here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ and you server meets theme’s requirements: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-requirements-for-newsmag/
Hope this helps.

With regard at demos if you don’t want to import their content just import the settings. When a demo without content is installed are imported only its settings, by this is mean colors, fonts, header style and any other settings from panel. In this case you will have to create your own posts and pages and customize them as you wish.
By default the theme does not create content for you, that is not its purpose. The theme handle only site’s layout. By this I mean how post/page will be displayed, how a specific part will be colored, when/where some posts will be displayed depending by user’s options. You can look at the demos as starting point in customizing the site. A demo it’s a site already built which can be taken as example when you start you own site development.
I hope this helps.
Thanks!

You will have to spend quite a bit of time learning that first to do so, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/

Hi,
I would like to hear your advice.
Currently I use Block20 for the featured post on my website. Unfortunately this block looks only good if I have no sidebar. If I put that block together with a sidebar, too much of the featured image is covered by the white text background (I don’t want to reduce the length of my headlines).
I would like to keep a large block with headline below image and excerpt text. Preferable were the headline and text background only covers a little of the image or not at all (completely below image). None of the existing blocks meet these requirements.
What would be the best way to achieve this? I know you don’t have the time to do customization here but perhaps you can hint me in the correct directions.
Any easy/quick css to change the look (shifting headline and excerpt down or so)?
Are there anywhere additional blocks for download (for sale?)?
Is there an easy way to edit the blocks? (block editor?)
Do you recommend to hire a customizer (eg from fiveer)?
What would the customizer need to do? Child theme? Creating new block or changing existing block?
Kind regards
Paul
Hello krisorqla,
I have checked your website and I saw that your menu is not working fine. First of all, please ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme (Newspaper 7.1.1) and also, the latest version of required plugins (Visual Composer 4.11.2 and Social Counter 4.1), try to clear all your caches, purge CDN file if you are using CDN system and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins. So, if your problem is still there, please contact your hosting provider because it is possible that your dedicated served to have cache and ask to be removed for achieving best results.
Please notice that your images could be affected by your untested plugins. Try the theme without then and check the results.
Please notice that the loading time for your site depends on many factors and please notice that we cannot provide support for speed optimization because it is not covered by our support. First of all, please ensure that your dedicated server meets these requirements, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ Also, you can use our tutorial regarding on page speed, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/

Hi,
We tested our theme and we do not seem to have this issue on our side. The theme is optimized for best performances so please try this without any plugins. Disable all of them except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Also make sure you increase the system status parameters like this guide suggests: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ and make sure you meet the requirements for newspaper: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
If you still have issues with this, try to create a sub-domain and make a fresh install of wp and the theme for testing purposes.
Thank you!
Hi,

Hello all,
Unfortunately, this error could come from a big number of problems. I believe it happens due to a server configuration which is not responding, it could be due to a delay or it could also be a temporary issue so you can try this a few times and if you still get this error please contact your host provider and let him know about this, ask them to unblock our demo in order to retrieve the theme data. It could also happen due to your wp install or other plugins might also cause this. Also, make sure that your permission for the upload folder is set correct. You can check this by trying to upload an image in the media library. If the process succeeds then the permission is okay. If not you can use the c-panel to change permissions (set them to 777) or if you do not have access to the Cpanel, please contact your hosting provider.
Also, make sure you meet the requirements for newspaper: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
If you still cannot install the demo, please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can take a look. Please also provide a link to this topic.
Thank you!
