Hello ferithon,
Please keep in mind that problem is not related to our theme, sorry! As you can know, every theme can be switched to the SSL mode and here it really depends on how well you set this. Please follow the next useful tutorials and try to setup properly the SSL connection.
Please use these guides:

Thanks for your understanding!
Hi, tnx a lot for help.
Only strange is that in wp-admin string “secure” is displayed…while in the site not.
SEE VIDEO http://screencast-o-matic.com/watch/cbfhog6PGW
Have you any idea?
So for SSL security test i will ask to my hosting to controll it.
Hello,
I cannot see any not secure messages on your site. It seems to be properly set to https:
https://www.screencast.com/t/6Cqb1swhgBAw
However there are a few ssl test sites you can try to run and see what issues come up such as:
https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=www.falcri-is.com
or https://www.htbridge.com/ssl/
Thank you!
Hello the problem was the SSL certificate issued by Let’s Encrypt. Google chrome on Android devices was blocking it because the ssl provider was not secure. I removed the ssl and everything is ok. You can’t see any ads because are regional based ads.
thank you for the help.
Hello,
The code you mention is the compile code from your settings in the theme panel. You cannot remove that unfortunately. Removing css from the theme is not recommended as the code handles multiple classes at once and deleting one will affect the other and you may break the theme style. The compiled code cannot be removed.
1. The featured image uses a thumbnail to shop up in the post style. It uses a thumb of 696 x 0 so your image will not go over 696 px which is the container width. You will have to make sure your images are bigger than that dimension though otherwise the images will not have the same size. Our theme cannot enlarge images. It can only crop them
2. It means you did not make the move to ssl properly. Please use these guides:

Can you help me please?
Tnx a lot
p.s.
my site is: https://www.falcri-is.com/
Please try on your demo and tell me how to do. All what i need is to remove css (from view source) that do not use in my site.
Also i have other questions
1. How to set standard dimensions for featured images (I am using POST TEMPLATE STYLE 2)
2. I have installed SSL for my site but if i search with http everything is okay but if i search with https:// images and css are not working properly
Thank You!!
Hello,
Please try to use the manual activation process: https://www.screencast.com/t/DJnCt0X2
The theme should not loose it’s data as the activation process is meant to be used a single time, not periodically. Maybe you did not make the move to ssl properly and there is a conflict somewhere affecting the theme activation or the theme settings. Please check these few guides on how to properly move to ssl:
http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-ssl-and-https-in-wordpress/
https://css-tricks.com/moving-to-https-on-wordpress/

I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Add 2) Yop, this is the problem. I have to check it again this SSL.
1) Yes, thank you – it is much better now.
2) It seems that problem is in Really Simple SSL Plugin that I use for prrof my page.. I will try to figure out somehow.
just on last question about the Weather block – It’s in english but the days are not in english, it’s probably because I use Wp-admin in Czech, can I change the days also in english somehow? Thanks!
Here some system INFO of the current installation:http://i66.tinypic.com/2dkjr5l.png
For some testing, I made a copy of the website and run it on a different server (with no SSL) and the theme worked as before, without any problem.
The funny part is that on the testing server, the requirements suggested on you guide were not satisfied. Have a look by yourself: http://i67.tinypic.com/2z9mnbq.png

Is this issue, in any way related to we just shifting to https://?
If we are on SSL now, would the above solutions still work or we need to do something different?
Thanks for your input @catalin-l. I can manage to resolve most issues on my own, just need a nod in the right direction.
Thank you.
Hello,
There are 2 ways to remove these icons. The easiest is to hide them with css:
.td-social-google, .td-social-pinterest{
display:none!important;
}
The second method involves editing the theme files but this will be more of a hassle as you have to make the modification again if an update changes those files. The code is found here: https://www.screencast.com/t/ms0ELj4ly6R If you remove the 2 lines of code, the icons will no longer show up.
Thank you!
Theme doesn’t manage SSL or Facebook counts, technically.
So, when you change your URL, it’s no longer the same URL, as treated by FB. There are some hacks out there, which generally need to be done in the main functions.php file.
Also, you need to ensure
a) you have set the https url explicitly in your wp-config.php file
b) done a search/replace for http/your site to https/your site in yout MySQL dbase
c) setup a redirect in your htacess file for all http requests to > https
Whatever hack you use aside from the above “required” stuff for moving to https, be aware it may not always work as you are tricking FB into seeing the old link as the new link, when technically it’s not the same URL.
Much like adding the new site to your Google search console, they stupidly consider it a new site, and does not replace the original in your search console; also note inbound links will show different, and your indexing may change for up to 3 months with the shift.
It’s very much worth doing and should be considered required to be https these days, but you have run into just one of the many issues in the ‘move.’
Try putting the function into the *main* theme functions file. This is one of the many reasons I never use child themes; makes this kind of thing notably trickier as the child theme is essentially a CSS redirect to over-ride the main theme.
The developers of the Real Simple SSL plugin recommend using this code within the functions.php:
function rsssl_exclude_http_url($html) {
//replace the https url back to http
$html = str_replace(‘data-href=”https://www.domain.com’, ‘data-href=”http://www.domain.com’, $html); return $html;
}
add_filter(“rsssl_fixer_output”,”rsssl_exclude_http_url”);
I added it to the functions.php of our child theme, but it isn’t working.
Hi,
we just migrated our site to HTTPS using a Comodo SSL certificate. To help with this we installed the Real Simple SSL WordPress plugin. Everything is fine, but we lost all Facebook counts.
What can we do in order to fix this? We are using a child theme.
A fast response will be greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance for your time!
Hello,
I understand that you receive a lot of support requests and you probably skim read most postings, however, I have tried very hard to do my due diligence in troubleshooting this problem. I am sending the login credentials for the website.
1) As per my post on March 23 “However, if I create a new post and embed the same Instagram post, the Instagram post and not the URL may appear.” I would expect that your test would display the social media posts. Because if I use the same social media post in a new WordPress post, it displays.
2) You wrote on March 27 “The suggestion to disable the plugins was to double check that that plugins are not causing this, since the links seem to work and display properly on my end.“.
I had already wrote on March 23 “I have disabled all plugins.“. I had also disabled Visual Composer to test for a conflict there.
As you stated on March 27, Visual Composer has no effect on the post page, so your statement on March 24 “ Also please install the Visual composer plugin as it is an essential and required in the proper functionality of the theme” implies the problem might be related to Visual Composer. If that was not your intent, then your statement is completely irrelevant to the problem because as you stated, it has no effect on the post page.
Again, this is a dev version of the website for testing. We are using Visual Composer on the live website but we cannot easily isolate the problem with plugins activated.
3) You state on March 27 “After a search on the internet it seems that other people are having this issue with some of the embeds – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/youtube-embed-not-working-anymore-after-451-update/ and it could be a hosting issue.”
However, I stated on March 23 “Switching to 2016 theme solves the problem instantly.”
How is this a WordPress update issue or a hosting issue if the problem is solved by changing from the Newspaper theme to the 2016 theme? And then the problem re-occurs when switching back to the Newspaper theme? Also, did you read the thread YOU linked? It is for a near isolated incident with WordPress 4.5.1 that was resolved with WordPress 4.5.2. How was that supposed to be beneficial to my scenario considering embed work perfectly fine with the default theme activated?
So, let me restate.
Server software Apache/2.4.25 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2g
PHP Version 7.0.17
post_max_size 50M
max_execution_time 600
max_input_vars 5000
WP version 4.7.3
WP multisite enabled No
WP Language es_ES
WP Memory Limit 512 MB/request
Theme Newspaper
Theme version 7.7.1
Theme database version 7.7.1
Visual Composer 5.1
All required plugins (Visual Composer) are currently active. NO other plugins are active. Three themes are installed. Newspaper, Newspaper Child, and 2016. Newspaper (not Newspaper Child) is the current active theme.
With this setup, some social media embed are not embedding.
Switching to 2016 theme and reloading the same page, all social media embed work properly.
Switching back to Newspaper theme, same social media embeds are not working again. Those same social media embeds will work properly if reposted in a new post.
This information combined with all of the other information provided above should clearly explain the problem. I have completely isolated the problem down to the Newspaper theme. It is possible that the Newspaper theme could have a conflict with the hosting environment, however, I have posted my environment information above and I believe that it meets or exceeds all recommendations. Like I also stated above, I am not receiving any errors or noticies alerting me to any problems.
If you have any questions or suggestions that have not already be answered or attempted, please let me know. I would like to get this resolved as soon as possible as it does impact our readership.
Thank you,
hi, after v.7.8 update … i have problems with a plugin geodirectory … here you can see the site https://goo.gl/3qSsLq
everything worked great before … looks like some css styling is applied which makes the contend of the plugin very big …
you help its much appreciated
thanks
Here is the system status from the theme page:
Server software Apache/2.4.25 (Unix) OpenSSL/1.0.2g
PHP Version 7.0.17
post_max_size 50M
max_execution_time 600
max_input_vars 5000
WP version 4.7.3
WP multisite enabled No
WP Language es_ES
WP Memory Limit 512 MB/request
Theme version 7.7.1
Theme database version 7.7.1
Visual Composer 5.1
From what I can tell, my system meets all of the required specs and I am running the most recent versions of WordPress, Newspaper Theme, and Visual Composer.
All required plugins are installed and activated (Visual Composer). No other optional plugins are active.
Again, problem is instantly solved by changing to the 2016 theme and instantly resumes if I change back to the Newspaper theme.
It doesn’t appear to matter how I embed the social media post. If I use the embed shortcode or if I just drop in the URL as per the WordPress Embed codex.
This is kind of a big problem for us as the site relies heavily on social media posts.
If I had to guess, the Newspaper theme is running a filter or action on the embeds. I believe this is true based on what I have read in other posts in the forum. My guess is, something in that filter or action is timing out on some social media posts or is failing to recognize the formatting of some URLs and not others (less likely.)
So my questions are.
1) Does the Newspaper theme run a filter or action on embeds or in any way interact with embedded media?
2) If so, where is that code located in the theme?
3) Do you recognize that this is a theme issue and not a plugin / social media issue (since the problem only occurs with the theme activated)?
Thank you for your help.
No prob.
Note another reason, if your site is https, and you’re using a free https certificate as part of the https everywhere initiative; most of the new free https certs will make the site unusable for very old, insecure web browsers that don’t support TLS and only support defunct SSL1/2/3.
This is kind of rare, but it does impact some people who have folks still running WinXP, or Win7 with IE7/8/9/10 — all of which are defunct/deprecated and not secure at this point.
Hi,
1. Okay, I understand
2. I mean to remove “About Us” and “Follow Us”, not to translate
3. For me this works:
@media (max-width: 500px) {
.td-theme-slider.iosSlider-col-3 .td-module-title a {
font-size: 18px;
line-height: 2px;
}}
@media (max-width: 500px) {
.iosSlider-col-3 .entry-title.td-module-title {
line-height: 24px;
}}
Thank You the best theme 🙂
Hi,
1. I am not sure I fully understand what you mean. Here you can see all the available blocks in the theme – https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-15/ in different layout settings. If the mobile theme is not used, the same content from desktop will be displayed on mobile. This is how block 15 looks on 1 column – https://www.screencast.com/t/wRyjnCqm – https://www.screencast.com/t/Qa1JZkKqg and on 2 columns – https://www.screencast.com/t/lmZuafZx – https://www.screencast.com/t/vAhlmqIF This is how the blocks are designed and how the theme responsiveness works, depending on the page structure in Visual composer. It would not be an easy task to change how the blocks are displayed, and multiple elements have to be taken in account.
2. If you mean the “About Us” and “Follow Us” here – https://www.screencast.com/t/cnTwkha5gVzD you can do it like this – https://www.screencast.com/t/XSjEtHdW in Theme panel->Translations
3. You could use some css for this, to modify the font size on the module title on the slider – https://www.screencast.com/t/8ICa7ynf3ADL This is the code used in the example
@media (max-width: 500px) {
.iosSlider-col-3 .entry-title.td-module-title {
font-size: 12px;
}}
Thanks

We recently moved to new servers with ssl (https). When the site loads, the thumbs/posts in the megamenu show fine when you hover over a menu item but if you hover over a sub catagory or try to load more on the main menu item, the loading animation appears then the megamenu closes and there are no posts/images displayed. This only happens if you are not logged in to the site. If you are logged in then all works as should. We have tried disabling all plugins except vc and the results are the same. I understand it could be a js error but it is strange that the error does not happen when signed in. Could it be related to our site using https. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hello,
Maybe the move to ssl was not made properly:
Please use these few examples to properly move to https:

Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately there is nothing to be done about google’s decision. Any site that requires a login form will have to move to ssl otherwise the browser will show a ‘not secure’ message in the upper left of the site. If you need users to login to your site, you will need to move to ssl. If not, you can simply deactivate the theme login and the not safe message will not show up.
Thank you!
