Hi,

Please also try this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active to make sure that is not happening due to other plugins you use, then make sure that you regenerate your thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After doing this empty cache and check again.
Please let me know how it goes!

Thanks!

Hi,

My guess is that somehow your update hasn’t been done well or you have made changes/modifications to the theme as the it seems that this css code is missing or it’s not applied: http://screencast.com/t/jPoIT65Hu
Please also test this after disabling the css minifier/html compressor and make sure you empty cache/purge files afterwards then test again without plugins.
Add this css in theme panel > custom css for the mega menu issue:

.td-mega-menu .td_block_mega_menu {
padding-top: 20px;
}

For the “Related posts” issue, after I inspected your site I noticed that the images are loaded at their original sizes which should not happen so I suggest you follow this guide and regenerate thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After that please make sure you empty cache and/or purge files.
The line height/ font/ size/ family/ weight.. can be changed from theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/DHO5IQnJrLqW

Hi,

The thumbs for the images on blocks/modules are created by the theme and loaded at smaller sizes so when on phones or tablets depending on the screen view the thumbs need to get a bit stretched so that they fill their container. You could change this by adding a new thumb size or altering the one you use and have it to use a larger one which would look better on mobiles or tablets.
The size of the images can be changed from functions.php: http://screencast.com/t/FbsZ2g0g
And regenerate thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
Please also note that if you alter it’s size it you might need some css modifications.
You could change it’s color via css but only if you’re using different blocks on your sidebar as if you’re using the same block/blocks you can’t target via css just one and change it’s color.
Let me know of your situation I’ll let you know if it can be done easily.

Thanks

Hi,

You images are not compressed – http://screencast.com/t/3iC97TdUsA4 you can also set the Browser Leverage – follow this guide (sections 2 and 3) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/

You also need to regenerate the thumbs, follow this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/

Thank you, Emil G.

Hi,

1&2 Please try to regenerate your thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After doing this empty cache and check again.
Also note that if you have featured images smaller you need to use a plugin like Thumbnail Upscale: https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ as WordPress cannot enlarge thumbnails, only make them smaller. For upscale use a combination of plugins Thumbnail Upscale + Force Regenerate.

3. This should not happen, because the background should have negative z-index. Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/4Tyxyq5OJ

.td-big-slide-background .backstretch{
z-index: -999998!important;
}

Please provide your site url if this not helps.

Thanks!

Hi,

The theme doesn’t require code modifications, all solutions provided by me are either server optimizations (gzip compression, browser leverage), image optimization (when you deliver uncompressed/uncropped images and your page has 4-6Mb multiplied with a large number of visitors it will certainly lead to a blockage), cache. The Speed Booster is not that important, it will just move js and css at the page end giving the illusion that the page loads faster because the js/css executes after the other content elements are loaded. All those optimizations should be done regardless of the theme used and unfortunately we couldn’t include them in the theme as an automatic feature. I’ve made a guide here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ – the setting presented on the guide were taken from our demo server – also it requires to regenerate the thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/

There are also discussions on the forum on this subject – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pagespeed/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tutorial-chriss-custom-optimizations-for-functions-php-etc/

Sorry for all the trouble you encountered with our theme, we can offer a full refund, just send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and we’ll discuss the details.

PS – We’re testing the latest version of VC, on our tests it behave properly, we’re trying to identify why it uses so many resources on some of our clients servers. We advise anyone who has trouble with the latest version to switch to the previous one (4.3.5) which should work fine.

Thank you, Emil G.

Hi,

First backup the database and the files.
If you don’t move on another host/domain, install and activate the Newspaper theme, then regenerate the thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ , set the menus (top, main, bottom), set the sidebar(s), create the main page and set it as a homepage from Settings -> Reading

You can find more details on how to configure each section in the documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/

Thank you, Emil G.

Hi,

You can use this guide to regenerate thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
If you have images smaller you need to use a plugin like Thumbnail Upscale like Christopher said: https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ as WordPress cannot enlarge thumbnails, only make them smaller.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have also tested this and haven’t found any issues when using the latest theme version. Not sure if this related to the theme as we haven’t made any modification to editor lists. This might be a WordPress error also so please try testing this when switching to a default WordPress theme and check if this behavior is still present.
Regarding to the issue you have with the image in the slider I suggest you make sure first that the image is actually larger than 700x452px width and if so use this guide an regenerate thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
Hope this helps!

Thanks

Hi,
@Breakwater is just a strange coincidence, nothing else, and about the theme is definitely a copy.

Thanks for the message!

Hi,

I’m not sure if the image thumb is added by default by WordPress or not so if you have added it yourself then you just need to remove that code which you used to add it if not then I suggest to use the thumbnail image size from media settings to set the size for your images: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/ then regenerate thumbnail: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After this without using the code in the function file the image size for feeds should be at the sizes you want.
Please let me know and also provide your site’s URL so I can check this.

Thanks
