I have the same issue sometimes and that’s not the cause. I also have WP Super Cache installed and ajax-enabled counter.
In my case, post views count rarely goes back to zero, but it definitely does drop when the post is updated some time later.
The problem is particularly obvious when I keep the post open in admin after publishing it. If I leave and then come back to edit it, less views will drop. Maybe that’s a hint.
Hello the team!
Since the last update i have a problem with the TD composer app like some other people. I already read a lot of forum help but nothing could help me to get the TD composer app work again. Everytime i download it again, i have a 502 Bad Gateway error. I deleted the TD Composer app from cPanel. I don’t understand because i follow this:
“1. Deactivate TD Composer in plugins section
2. Uninstall TD Composer in plugins section
3. Download the latest Newspaper 8.7 version from ThemeForest
4. Extract out the content
5. Go to Theme –> Newspaper –> includes –> plugins
6. Locate the zipped td-composer file in the plugins folder
7. Head back to WordPress, install td-composer as a new plugin”
But it’s not working for me. Could you help me?

Thank you very much 🙂
Simion this latest update seems to be really problematic. We have people with sites that are down, myself included.
Here is another thread going at https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/site-broken-after-update-to-latest-version-navigation-visible-only/#new-post with more specific issues from a few people.
I bump this up – this is terrible. Another thread going at https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/site-broken-after-update-to-latest-version-navigation-visible-only/#new-post with more specific issues from a few people.
I had many problems with 8.6, there were also many errors with that update. Now 8.7 also generates serious errors ….
I work with 8.5 and honestly, I do not think it will update until everything is solved.
It is not responsible to take an update and that it harms a web. My website has thousands of daily visits, such an error can mean many economic losses.
Indeed, the theme plugins should also be updated as well, after updating the theme itself. This is mentioned in the update guides

hey Kwacha,
I sent an e-mail to customer support at tagDiv so we’ll see if they’re able to fix this.
I’m having our hosting provider revert our site back to yesterday as I’ve tried going back to version 8.6 but the problem stayed. I’ve spent hours trying all the things everyone on here has mentioned but nothing has worked.
This is the first time in all the years I’ve had Newspaper that an issue cropped up so I’m sure they’re working on a fix. It seems like the new update is having trouble linking to our static homepage we created. All the other articles on our site look like they usually do, just the homepage issue only showing the menu bar on top remains.
Hi,
Indeed, please update the theme plugins as well. The tagDiv composer and multi-purpose plugin versions are now 2.0. So please update the theme plugins as well, after the theme.
Thanks
Hello Greg K,
Unfortunately, notice that plugin has not been tested with our theme and we cannot say for sure if this will work as expected with the new update of the theme, sorry! Try to implement it according to its documentation and check the results. Notice that we cannot provide support for untested plugins.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
The composer should be automatically updated after a theme update. Sometimes it seems it is not for some reason. Best to manually update all the theme plugins, just to be sure.
Yes it is, this and a child theme are considered safe ways to customize the theme. So custom code entered in any of the theme panel sections will not be lost after a theme update.
what’s weird is that it doesn’t seem like it’s able to connect our static page homepage with 8.7 no matter what tweaks you try. with this many issues, they’ve gotta be working on a solution as it’s pretty common now with this update.
Hi,
I have a web site with Newspaper 7.6 (wordpress 4.9.4) and I would liked to know if I can update to Newspaper 8 easily, like minor update. I go to theme, change active theme, remove old Newspaper version, then upload new newspaper version (zip) and made that new version active again and everything’s fine.
Can I do that and won’t loose any specific params ?
Thanks
You can simply download the latest theme package (8.7) and follow the guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The most recommended method is by FTP. Remember to update the theme plugins as well.
Here you can see some of the newly introduced features

Hello ShibumiOz,
Please update all the plugins which come bundled with the theme core files. I recommend to make a new clean install via FTP way and also, make sure that your plugins have been updated if you want to achieve best theme results. Clear all the caches and check the results.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
After upgrading the theme to newest version, I am seeing following errors just before Sidebar ad.

It was working very well before. But after upgrading the theme to latest version, this error appears.
Please help fixing this issue.
Hi,
I downloaded the update and installed the new theme without a problem (by FTP).
Then I deleted the plugins (by FTP) and uploaded the new ones.
I didn’t upload Revolution Slider and JS Composer as I don’t use a slider or Visual Composer.
The website crashed. I have this error message: Error 502 Ray ID: 3ed5fd824c7a33af • 2018-02-15 05:50:34 UTC
I deleted the plugins through FTP and uploaded the zips through WordPress.
Everytime I activate td composer the website crash, doesn’t let me access the admin panel anymore and give me the error: Error 502 Ray ID: 3ed5fd824c7a33af • 2018-02-15 05:50:34 UTC
Please help
Hi… Thanks for the update, it’s great.
But, I found some bugs that make my blog looks bad, especially for AMP, so… I decide to deactivate AMP plugin.
Here is the problem:
1. AMP: Article image doesn’t show up, it disappeared. (but image on related article show up)
2. AMP: How to disable footer?
3. AMP: Top left menu disappeared
4. AMP: featured image also not show up
5. AMP: Logo size broken
Thanks
I have two licenses for the newspaper theme. On the older one I installed the Envato Tootlkit and entered the API key, username and token and I am able to do one click updates of the theme.
But on the newer license that I bought I installed the same Envato Toolkit and entered the same API key, same username and same token into the Envato Toolkit but I do not see a button on the theme to do the 1 click update. Do I need a different API, Username and token for the second license? If so how do I get these?
We run a very big site on Newspaper and it amazes me how stable the tagdiv themes are and the effort you put in to keep evolving and supporting an excellent product.
Congratulations!
My website has crashed after updating to Newspaper 8.7. I realized that all the past updates have been riddled with fatal errors.
This is a great theme,but things seem to be falling apart now. I dont know what to do. This is happening at the time of breaking news here in the United States.
Sad
Here is the guide to update the theme. https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Hello I bought a month and a half ago Newspaper (Version: 8.6) and install it in my WordPress, now I see that there is an update. I imagine it’s good to update it.
How is it the first time, can you tell me how to update? Do I have to update everything I have in the new version? And finally I will lose the personal adjustments I have now? Thank you
We are using Video News template of Newspaper 8.5 theme, video on the post page are showing up at the bottom instead of the black panel at the top as shows in the actual demo of Video News template.
Sample Screenshot
http://take.ms/20oQ2
Click on the any video on the link http://latidune.com/?cat=399 and go to the post page.
Is it a featured or header image issue where the theme is handling it differently ? Please visit the sites and let us know if we should do any config changes or CSS code updates.
Thanks
