Is it possible to show the total score for the points review instead of the average score of all rating categories?
also when I try to share on facebook there is no preview image generated it just goes to URL
Hi,
run into some issues with the theme mods to the post editing, when using WooCommerce in particular.
1) when editing a product, or post, and switching to visual editor, while in *https*, something loading is not being loaded via https and causes a browser warning (site wide is https) to okay load of insecure content; creates autosave point. In visual editor, elements like bullet points in unordered lists don’t render, but are shown indented but not actually indented on page preview or publish.
2) unable to properly manage some elements in text editor, where some tags don’t function properly. In other words, the theme is “monkeying” with the ability to actually enter HTML properly like line breaks and the <br> tag in particular.
3) the divider line in visual mode is actually distracting when trying to edit content, and option to remove that or toggle off is actually now desirable while I tolerated it originally.
So, is there an option or function I can use to force “disable” the divider line and/or element modifying the post page?
Having this issue with td speedbooster plugin “off” or “on” and no major plugins running during dev cycle (meaning Yoast SEO off, social media stuff totally off, no mod_pagespeed running, no minification, no site caching, etc.).
Hi,
Recently bought the newsmag theme and am wanting to design it so that the layout matches that of the demo(s)
i.e. how do I get the blog post tile layout at the top of the blog?
Thanks in advance!
Thanks, the top menu is quite large though compared to the live preview? Is there a way to change this?
I habe problem anout themeforeset with 50 downloads limit… my hard disk crash and no have any backup from previews or latest downloads files for newspaper theme… any solution about this ?
thanxxx
I really liked the “sport” style that can be seen in the live preview. So I’m wondering if there is some documentation or a tutorial on how to achieve this appearance?
Hi – hope this is something you can help with or at least be able to advise a compatible plugin that will work alongside your theme to allow the functionality i require.
I basically want to restrict all of my posts to subscriber only content, it won’t be a paid for site but i do want to capture some info details before allowing them to view the site content.
So the two things i require to set this up are:
1) How do i add extra fields to the register field (i want to capture 5 or 6 bits of info and also give them the option of a checkbox for newsletters etc)
2)I want them to be able to see the front page which will contain the standard ‘previews’ of posts ie feature image and short extract but once they click on a post or menu item i want the full post content ‘disabled’ until they sign up or login
An example of this can be seen on http://www.heraldscotland.com/ albeit they allow you to view 7 posts before a popup asks you to subscribe (they give some free articles as it is a paid for subscription service).
Hope this is something you can advise on. Thanks in advance, Tom
Okay,
still no dice
Maybe I have the code a little wrong.
Here is my theme.js:
jQuery( document ).ready( function ($) {
if ( $( document.body ).hasClass( 'single' ) ) {
$( '.td-post-content a img' ).addClass( 'td-modal-image' ) ;
}
} ) ;
and here is the part from the functions file:
// include theme.js
//
wp_enqueue_script( 'theme-js', get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/js/theme.js', array( 'jquery'), NULL, TRUE );
// for debugging, see all hooks
//add_action( 'all', create_function( '', 'var_dump( current_filter() );' ) );
maybe I am missing something
here is the dev site:
http://www.cgmagonline.com/dev/?reviews=nintendo-new-3ds-xl-hardware-review
Just tried out the demo again: http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/full_screen_preview/5489609
And the issue is present there too. If you open the page and gently pull the browser window narrower ALL pictures on the site shifts size up and down with one pixel with every move that is made to the browser window.
This seem like kind of a serious issue..
Hi,
In my home page http://www.bichosrunners.com when I click on the links in the bigslide doesn´t do any action when I have more than 4 post to show. (using only 4 post it works)
Is it a probem of my theme? How can configurate it?
In the live preview template of newspaper theme you can do this so I assume it is a problem of my configuration
Thanks
I am having issues with this also. The theme.js is loading but it does not seem to be working
Have a look here:
http://www.cgmagonline.com/dev/?reviews=housebound-movie-review
for some odd reason it does not want to load.
Any ideas?
When I switched my site to Newsmag, Google stopped indexing my images for Google News. First I thought this was an issue with Yoast News SEO, but apparently everything is working there.
I fear this issue might be related to the theme?
I contaced Google News and got this answer:
Hi Erik,
Thank you for your note.
If your images aren’t appearing next to your articles, I’d recommend reviewing our image guidelines for suggestions on how to fix this issue. While we can’t guarantee that we’ll be able to include all your images, these suggestions will increase the likelihood of the inclusion of your images in Google News.
Please keep in mind that in order to show as many different sources to our users as possible, we sometimes pair relevant images with articles from different sources.
Thanks for your interest in Google News.
Regards,
Brenna
The Google News Team
Any help would be much appreciated!
Hahaha… got it!
Be patient, I´m learning.
There seams to be some strange action on your “block 3”
see: http://www.kungalvsnyheter.se/debatt/?preview=true&preview_id=729&preview_nonce=4cfad58862
Isn´t the articles gonna be big and one under the other? not many small?
Cheers,

Hi Chris!
Please try this custom css for the issue you have with Paypal info box: http://screencast.com/t/yn9fXsum
.woocommerce #payment div.payment_box, .woocommerce-page #payment div.payment_box {
width: 75% !important;
}
@media (min-width: 1024px) {
.woocommerce #payment div.payment_box, .woocommerce-page #payment div.payment_box{
width: 83% !important;
}
}
You can also modify or remove that paypal info by removing it for m the description filed from woocommerce settings: http://screencast.com/t/gdMhxxABf
Regarding reviews this might help: https://support.woothemes.com/hc/en-us/articles/203447633-How-to-Disable-Product-Reviews
I have also tested this and found that having that filter in the functions file dose remove the reviews tab from product page: http://screencast.com/t/bwaygpI63sI
Hope this helps!
Thanks

Another WooCommerce item; not sure if theme or WooC related.
When logged out, and on a product page, under reviews tab, it says “you must be logged in first…” but link to login goes to the main site admin panel and not the store login. Might be cookie remembering “me” vs “customer” … but bizarro.
I’m actually trying to figure out how to completely disable the darn reviews entirely; turning off comments doesn’t do it in both WP > discussion *and* in the theme panel.
Adding a “disable reviews” button in your themes would be a massively cool feature. But I know that is down about 200 items on “requests.” 🙂
Sheesh. Woo is really dumb about some things like that.
Yes. You need to ask for support in the support forum, which is in the open. If it’s a security flaw or similar, or need somebody to login to your system to see what a bug might happen to be, they will usually ask you to email them any “secure” info and obviously not post that here.
FYI: Theme developers don’t do custom modifications. For “big changes” you might/definitely will need to hire a developer; as the company doesn’t provide a re-engineering service beyond what the theme is designed and advertised to do.
Once you review the theme docs, you can ask for help here, and then TagDiv support folk and/or the “community” can chime in with solutions already done the past 13 months with theme, or help with your specific use case.
Yeeehhhhaaaahhhh! (as we say out here in the Wild West …)
Just tested with Google “Structured Data Testing Tool” and the preview does show the correct rating, et al.
I think that fixed it.
So, good to add to next version of theme ! 🙂
Thanks again.
Hi,
The homepage loop already has an sort order by reviews built in: http://screencast.com/t/t9HdsZxvjeqy
Thanks
Hi Chris!
Have you tried the above solution? I see that the reviews still doesn’t work on your site!
It doesn’t work that way, due to dpi of the monitor, font size on different devices, differences in font files on different devices, etc.
In other words, expecting the words to “wrap” identically in the editor and the live page will never happen. A web browser is a fluid reader, and not a fixed device like ink and paper (e.g., “real magazine”).
You have no finite control over layout as you do with something like QuarkXPress or similar print production.
So, for example a web-safe font, and even a Google font may have different kerning, metrics, letter spacing, etc. depending on device, and somebody might even have fonts over-ridden to “always” use Times Roman, vs seeing PT Sans or whatever.
So, a line in the editor which is 8 words long, might only be 7 words long on the “actual” page, as it’s only a virtual preview, and not a “pixel accurate” preview of the live page. WordPress isn’t that precise. It’s a blog platform which has “matured” into a CMS. It’s not a professional publishing application for multi-platform publishing at a micro-control-level.
In other words, it’s impossible to make something like “identical” on all devices using this kind of product, or really any modern CMS; because the web isn’t a fixed viewport on ANY device.
——–
In the same way, the “metrics” and DPI of different devices makes WordPress admin panels render slightly differently per device — this is a function of WordPress… so if the “line” is set to take 50% of the view; well, the view is going to vary in width per device. So, 50% of 640px on a desktop might be 50% of 600px on a tablet due to responsive layout and resizing to fit the new device; etc.
Nothing is inherently wrong or needs to be fixed, this is just how it works.
The divider line is an “aid” not a 100% exact representation — it’s not a WYSIWYG setup 🙂

I’ve had no issues with this on our site(s); and I thoroughly test our site on desktop (Mac/PC), iPad Air, and iPhone 6, with no issues with layout when “live” on the web, and no issues with preview.
The line first threw me when I saw it too, but I mostly work in text mode except when pasting in articles from couple of writers who work in MS Word and I have to paste into the visual editor. It’s actually kind of nice once I figured out what it was for, to have a better idea of how wide the “real” column is on the site while working in the editor.
I don’t recall seeing an explanation of that in the theme docs, but I might have missed that also.
UPSHOT: on one production site and one test site, it has not caused any issues whatsoever (links available if curious).
Hello,
There is few issue i can’t fix at all.
1/ https://www.bestvpnservicemag.com/ before the theme was running newspaper.
a. On some page and sometimes the logo display with a gap.
https://www.bestvpnservicemag.com/get-anguillan-ip-address/

b. The google fonts are still not displaying properly even i install the new theme. Can you please help to get back the google fonts to work ?
c. on the home page you still cant change page even on this website (it open a new page when switching page of “last post”).

d. double line appearing

e. The social counter doesnt work. When activate home page doesnt display.
Also when loading for example the home page loop as a template this appear :
[td_social_counter custom_title=”STAY CONNECTED” facebook=”themeforest” twitter=”envato” youtube=”Envato” open_in_new_window=”y” border_top=”no_border_top”][td_ad_box spot_id=”sidebar”][td_block_9 limit=”3″ custom_title=”FEATURED” td_filter_default_txt=”All” ajax_pagination=”next_prev”][td_block_2 limit="3" custom_title="MOST POPULAR" td_filter_default_txt="All" ajax_pagination="next_prev"][td_block_6 limit="2" custom_title="LATEST REVIEWS" td_filter_default_txt="All" ajax_pagination="next_prev"]
I tried disabling all plugin an only keep visual editor and the social counter, it produce same bug.
f. Loading of image on home page
the black image when opening the page open for half second on the bottom

Thx for your help !
If I view and preview the post on the same screen, that line shouldn’t resize automatically? I’ve the problem on a PC Desktop, 1440*900px resoultion.
Anyway, if I do the modification suggested by you then it works fine on PC, but I think that it’ll work bad on other devices, right?
Thanks for your patience.
Thanks, Marius
will give it a try.
I did try the usual debug tricks like removing any review bullets from sidebar, etc. and still had the problem, hence the “cry for help!” 😉
Chris
