Hello,
Please make sure you also update wp super cache and only use these settings: install-and-configure/
WP super cache is a tested plugin and it works fine with our theme. I have just tested it again and there are no issues showing up. There is something else affecting your site that in combination with wp super cache breaks the layout. Please also test this on a sub-domain with a fresh install of the theme and wp super cache. Without any additional plugins or optimization.
Thank you!
Hello concertioline,
Sorry for this inconvenient, but please notice that does not exist any step-by-step upgrade. The only solution in this regard is to update your theme, sorry!
Thanks.
Hi,
At the moment only the article inline ad can be positioned or aligned in the post content. This option may be added for the other article ads in future updates, but I cannot say for sure when it will happen.
Thanks
Hello i just updated the theme and the whole website went blank, nothing opens not even wp admin site, my site is
http://optimusinformativo.com/
I updated via Theme update with envato toolkit, I also went to my files and say this files which seem extremly rare:
loop-single-1.php and keeps repeating to 13
single_template_1.php and keeps repeating to 13
Okay, really bad news.
I might try to rebuild/recufigure almost everything, the problem is that 90% of the elements are not working or mostly not visible. It would be a mad job.
Is there a less recent version (7 maybe?) partially compatible with 4.6 and that allows me to update only changing something? (and not having to rebuild the entire site). I’m doing it for site security reasons.
Buying a later version of the same theme I expected some compatibility, though obviously not total, otherwise I would not have bought it. Can we find a solution (a compromise) using an intermediate version?
It’s a really complex site, I need to keep it secure but it’s impossible to rebuild/reconfigure everything as if installing a new theme.
Hi.
I am the owner of the website Villaviciosadigital.es
Two days ago I updated the theme version from 8.0 to 8.1. Today I checked that the page does not load at all and stays in block. Also, it does not allow clicking anywhere.
I just deleted the TagDivComposer plugin and left only the Visual Composer, but it still does not work.
Can you tell me how to solve this problem?
Yes, I know that, I will do this, but not now. I have no time to configure theme again. I need to do something quick.
So there is no option to get files from update 6.7.2?
Hi,
Please keep in mind that what you want to do is a BIG update and the theme will be broken because it is totally another theme, sorry!
In order to achieve the best results after you will install the latest update you have to follow some rigorous steps like this -> you have to delete both of your themes, child theme, and main theme. All your customizations from your Newspaper 4 theme will do not work because all the files from this were changed in Newspaper 8.1 and as the main theme and also you lose all changes.
The Newspaper 8.1 is a whole new theme so an update from 4 to 8.1 may cause the same issues as switching to another theme (but we did try to maintain compatibility where ever possible).
Always make a full backup of your current installation – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and then do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ update also the plugins that come bundled with the theme files from the /plugins folder. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings.
The shortcodes have been changed so old ones will not work anymore. Please note that old files customization or custom CSS will not work with the new version and you will have to adjust or re-add them. Bottom line is that newspaper 8.1 is a whole new theme built from scratch.
Unfortunately, you will have to clear your agenda and spare a bit of time to adjust all your settings to the new version of the theme.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hello bformhals,
Sorry for this, but please notice that at the moment, we cannot help in this regard. I have added this request to our improvements list and we will consider in future updates. We can give you a hint if you want to add it yourself. Notice that you should edit the theme core file name td-login-modal.php if you want to have this functionality on your website -> https://www.screencast.com/t/5lJWzuz9aR. Notice that is not a simple task and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this case, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom services at the moment, sorry!
Thanks!
Hi,
The tagDiv composer is installed and activated when the theme is installed or updated. If you do not want to use it, deactivate and delete it from the plugins section or simply deactivate it. Also remove it from this location (or cut and paste it to a different place)

Newspaper Politics demo contains a Video Player/Video News feed on the primary page. How do I update this? I haven’t been able to identify anything in the theme panel to do so.
Hello alanperc,
My advice is to make a new clean install to your theme via FTP way because this is the surest method in this case. Also, if you are using some untested plugins, try to disable all of these and leave just only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files and exclude any conflicting plugins. After each theme update, you should make a full backup to your database.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
I believe the request for more article ads is already added to the list. However I cannot specify when exactly the option will be implemented and made available. Each update is meant to provide more theme options. It is hard for the developer team to decide what gets added as soon as possible, and what gets postponed.
Thanks
They will still have support for when we implement restrictions for the expired periods 🙂
Users that do not extend their support period will only benefit from theme updates but they will no longer receive theme support, meaning answers from us. We have not implemented this yet, but it is planned for the future.
Thanks.
I have Newspaper version 6.7 nad I have problem with header ad and inserting malware code. Where can I find update from 6.7 do 6.72?
Hi,
The Revolution slider plugin as well as the Visual composer editor plugin are provided pre-activated in the theme package, and you do not have to activate either of these. You already have full access to the plugin features and you can use it without activation. Updates for the plugins bundled within the theme package will be included in the theme updates.
Please ignore any at all activation messages from Revolution slider and Visual composer.It’s just a missing condition from the plugin authors for these versions and we cannot make any changes to the plugins as it will break the license agreement we have with the plugin authors.
Thanks
Hello,
This is because of the new page builder plugin which installs automatically. You should not keep both the visual composer and tagdiv composer active at the same time. Please update your theme and pick the builder you want to use and disable the other. If you want to move from visual composer to the tagdiv composer, please use this guide:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
Herre is a quick presentation of the new builder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hello bronco45,
First of all, thank you for your interest in our theme! Unfortunately, please keep in mind that you were not supposed to purchase the second license for the theme, sorry! Please notice that if you have one license purchased, you will have access to all the updates. Also, please notice that we do not recommend the automatic updates because it is not a safe way for updating your theme, every time. Our recommended way for updating your theme is via FTP way because this is the surest method in this case. You should follow all the steps from our documentation guide here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ Also, please notice that before each theme update, you should make a full backup to your database, according to the following useful guide here -> http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-create-a-complete-wordpress-backup-for-free-with-backwpup/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
FRom scratch means reinstalling the updated theme like a update via FTP?
Hi,
The Visual composer plugin is included in the theme package. You do not have to activate this plugin. Please disregard any activation messages, Visual composer can be used without any problems

Hello I currently have a media website using the Newsmag Theme. Recently something weird occurred. The theme did not automatically update from 2016 to 2017 and it caused the website to crash. When the web site crashed all of the plugins that were installed disappeared. I have since had to purchase the theme a second time and just had it installed again. The theme has been updated to 2017 and the site has partially reappeared. we have installed some of the plugins but we are still having issues recovering the complete site. I wanted to know if you might be able us information on why this happend and what we need to do to get the site to work properly. Also I would like to know why this occurred and why I had to purchase the theme a second time. Resepctfully Derek Burrell
Hi,
Please go to your plugins section, and deactivate the tagDiv composer. This new editor will be activated by default when the theme is updated or installed.
After deactivating it, everything should be displayed like before. In some cases, having both Visual composer and tagDiv composer active can cause issues for some elements.
Thanks
Hi Chris,
All settings are correct.
When I enter a posting page, there is information in the preview section of Yoast SEO section at the bottom of the page. But the bottom of the “Analysis” heading is empty. Previously, this area came up with suggestions and conclusions.
Also on the top right of the page was (such as) “SEO = good” “Readibiliy = good”, now it does not appear on that part.
Last time I made the change: in “Users> Profile” section I made the update. And I wanted to add a photo to the gravatar. I had to login to WordPress.org site, but when I entered the correct information I could not login. I do not know if these transactions have a relationship with this problem.
Regards.
Hi, I’ve input my Facebook page and YouTube channel into the Social Networks settings in the Newspaper theme.
The YouTube subscribers are coming through accurately, however the Facebook subscribers are still showing as 0.
I have tried leaving it for several days to see if it would update, but it didn’t.
The YouTube NewsPaper integration just showed the subscribers instantly!
Mine gives a pop up menu with standard error message saying i need to update permissions to upload path, contact Tag Div and register the theme. I have done it approx 50 times now.
