Hi,
I have tested smartlist 2 and it displays properly just like on our live demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/smart-list-style-2/
This is most likely a plugin conflict so please deactivate all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. The test your smartlist again.
Thank you!
Hi,
For some reason the css does not apply to the other titles. Please try this without plugins. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Then check the smartlist again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi,
We have no reports of the comments being added as a list item inside smartlists. Unfortunately we cannot say for sure how the plugin behaves as we have not tested it. Lots of people use fb comments with our theme but it was never tested by us. You can try to disable comments altogether from the template files: http://screencast.com/t/YJQcLtnB (post style 5 is recommended to be used on smartlists)
Thank you!
I am finally getting around to making my customizations.
The example you provided is very helpful and I think I am close.
However, I am attempting to add this to a plugin and it’s not working.
The purpose of my plugin is to add the content of one specific post to the end of all the posts on the site. I’d like to modify this so I can add choose one post to add to smartlist articles and another post to add to articles that are not smartlists.
This is my existing code that works on all articles:
function wmhb_filter_content1($content) {
if(is_single()) {
$my_postid = 15304; // Enter ID of page to append
$post_object = get_post( $my_postid );
$new_content1 = $post_object->post_content;
$content .= $new_content1;
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'wmhb_filter_content1');This is my attempt at incorporating your example. This does not work- no content is returned.
function wmhb_filter_content1($content) {
$td_smart_list = get_post_meta($this->post->ID, 'td_post_theme_settings', true);
if (!empty($td_smart_list['smart_list_template'])) {
$my_postid = 15304; // Enter ID of page to append
$post_object = get_post( $my_postid );
$new_content1 = $post_object->post_content;
$content .= $new_content1;
}
return $content;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'wmhb_filter_content1');I realize this is out of scope for the support you provide but if you can assist me in getting this to work I’ll be very grateful!
Hello,
Thank you for the wonderful theme. Can you please help with several questions:
1. Unfortunately social counter doesn’t work. Here is how it looks like https://gyazo.com/d3a5e93c412ea8c92faa87dbf18f1985 Everything was adjusted according to the provided instructions. You may see the it here http://freesmi.by/ on the right sidebar
2. Can you please let me know how to add vk.com share buttom?
3. What is a proper way of adding code to functions.php file in the child theme? When I simply add code here https://gyazo.com/c829207705804e51f76ee0dde7401ca9 nothing happens. The changes apply only when I make them in functions.php file placed in the mother folder (not child).
4. What is the proper way of using child theme? I made the following steps:
• I copied the child folder from here Themes\Newspaper-tf\code\Newspaper-child
• Pasted it to here /wp-content/themes/
• Then I opened functions.php file in the child theme and tried to make some additions, but nothing happened. I added the code here https://gyazo.com/100ac1b006855c8be7d7c14091e82559 But the code didn’t work. It worked only when I added it to the functions.php file in the mother folder of the theme
• So can you please advise what is the proper way of making corrections to functions.php file in the child theme? Did I do something wrong? Why it didn’t work?
5. Do you know any alternatives to CloudFlare Flexible SSL as it is not compitable with Speed Booster?
6. how to make the featured image cropped? For example instead of this – https://gyazo.com/72458b385e0f89a9d421657059e66e06 When the image takes almost all the screen, I would like to have all featured images cropped with specific size for example like here – https://gyazo.com/4abb6b786495c59078ab81851559cbeb – when the image smartly cropped and looks amazing. Is it something possible to featured images?
Thanks,
Denis.
Hi,
I am trying to create post-Smartlist by using Smartlist liSt 2, and General post setting Style 5.
There is a gap coming between no. and name.
I am using Newspaper 7.0.1. I have found a problem with Adsense ads not displaying when I chose smartList layout for a post. Is this a known bug or is this something which can be fixed by tweaking some settings??
Another thing. Ok – I though it was worth trying to put Article Ads as shortcode in top and bottom of my post which had smartlist layout, as it didnt display ads in case of smartlists. Voilla I could not find a single reference to shortcodes in this so called documentation which eventually lead to this Forum!! All I could find is a word [shortcode] in https://forum.tagdiv.com/article-ads/, which says:
[shortcodes] – the spot will run do_shortcode() on the ad. Using shortcodes you can add adRotate ads to that spot. – What does this mean? Can you explain.
Where do I find a list of SHORTCODES this theme provides? Is it not worth considering to put a page somewhere which list all the shortcodes this theme provides?
I am a web developer with almost 10 years of experience in coding, still I am finding it hard to find solutions and helpful things in this theme’s documentations.
Hello,
The smartlists ignore article ads by default. The smartlists have their own ads you can set from here: http://screencast.com/t/Xh68vMvYU
The adsense can have any dimensions you specify it to have on the viewport you chose from here: http://screencast.com/t/Yoh2wkjKBI
Thank you!
Hi,
I purchased the Newspaper theme but now can’t install the plug ins that go along with it (such as visual composer).
When I try to install, I receive the message:
The plugin does not have a valid header.
Downloading install package from http://urbanyvr.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/plugins/js_composer.zip…
Download failed. Service Temporarily Unavailable
I am wondering if this is because I am using 1&1 managed WordPress?
I switched the managed wordpress over to a standard installation shortly after signing up as I did not realize the limitations.
Please advise – I would really like to use this theme and it’s very frustrating not being able to.
1) A child theme is not update proof unfortunately. The files will still have to be replaced and customization re-added if the file itself gets updated in the main theme. Think about it. A file gets updated with new code and you serve the old version from your child theme. It will not work properly. This is the thing about customization there is no update proof way of doing it.
2) Yes, you need to first copy over the child theme folder from the base theme archive and then create the same path for the file you want to customize as the guide shows.
3) + 3a: In that case you simply copy over the file from the root directory into the root directory of the child theme.
4) + 4a i;m not sure exacly what userpro should do as we have not tested it. I cannot provide any blind solution as I’m not sure what it is supposed to tie in. Sorry but we can’t provide any solution for this. In order to add the file to the child them, you need to maintain the file sctructure and create a /parts/header/top-menu.php in the child-theme folder
5) and 6) unfortunately these are untested plugins so we are not sure exactly where to add the code. Unfortunately this represents customization that falls beyond what support can offer you/
7) You can find the list of modified files here: http://tagdiv.com/td_deploy/Newspaper/changed_files_6.6_7.0.html Each of the files on this list were modified.
8) The mobile theme will not be affected by the child theme in the classical way as it uses a different file structure and different files. It will not use the same smartlist files as the desktop version: http://screencast.com/t/8ElxdYM2AlvV
8)a. There are 2 mobile versions now. One is the standard version and one is the mobile theme. Every setting for the mobile theme can be found here: http://screencast.com/t/fGer1I2jJzN6 so settings for the mopbile theme are made here. If you deactivate the mobile theme this panel will disappear.
8)b. I send you an email for it.
9) As I wrote above, you only need to create the file structure replicating the one in the main theme and copy your files there. As a note on the child theme all of the wp-booster folder will not work from the child theme. any modification to files in this folder will have to be made in the main theme.
Thank you!
Hi,
I ran a few tests with smartlist 8 and you simply have to add the code like so: http://screencast.com/t/Pw9wAyOwebA and the ad will show up: http://screencast.com/t/rmDwGhe2qxFs
Thanks.
oh, I did that, I used it in the smartlist 8th, and I found why it was not showing. I still have an issued, that for some reason, it does not show on top of my article, but that one is not as important…
One cool thing for those smartlists would be to have page 1 out of 7 ETC, so people know where they are at.
Thanks for getting back to me.
Hi,
In the method above I showed you how to place an ad in smartlist 7. if you change the smartlist, you will not have the customize the file for that smartlist as well. Use the method above and place your ad in the smratlist 8 file.
Thank you!
Hi,
I did that and also deleted theme and mobile plugin settings from database. after that i did a clean install and the issue still exists. this issue didn’t appear in the old version of the theme. I don’t think it’s because of the RTL content.
Hi,
Yes, on smartlists that have pagination, there was an issue with the canonical URL that got fixed and now they should be indexed properly.
Thank you!
Version 7.0
improvement: better seo on smartlists
Does this mean each page of a smart list should now get indexed by Google?
Hello mixamex.com,
I have tested your website and I saw that you are using the RTL mode. Unfortunately, our theme has not been designed to be used in this mode and as you can see, might be appeared a lot of unknown issues. Please try to revert the theme options to the default one, without untested plugins and check the results. Also, if your problem is still there, please try to make a clean install from scratch via FTP with default theme settings and see how it works.
Than kyu for your understanding!
Hi
Theme’s style was changed a lot from V 1.5 to V 2.3.6 and you may need some additional customization to have everything set as before. Also our theme wasn’t designed to work with rtl so any additional css code which can replicate that style must be adapted to current theme’s layout.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately our theme does not support RTL. It has no such setting, so it means it will have to be made custom. We cannot provide a solution for it as it at the moment. Sorry.
As for the demo install, please try it out a couple of times as the demos are grabbed from the server and sometimes servers get overwhelmed. It can also be a hosting issue on your end. There are lots of things that affect the demo install. Please follow this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/installing-demo-problem/ and if you cannot get it to work, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can take a look.
Thank you!

Hello,
It depends on how you implement the adsense. The article inline ads will not display on smartlists as they were disabled for this type of post. For smartlists, the only ads that will display will be the ones from these spots: http://screencast.com/t/4OczslMm8R
Please provide more details to what ad spot you use and a link so we can inspect them.
Thank you!
Hi Catalin-
I am already using is-single(). I’d like to specifically reference ONLY posts that use the SmartList format.
This is pseudo code…
is-single(format="smartlist")
I know that won’t work but if you could point me in the right direction I’d be grateful.
