Hello,
Thanks for your response, BUT, what good is any of that going to do when I reactivate the plugins, which by the way, have not been changed since the days the “Editor” under “Appearance” was there. In fact, there have been NO changes other than updates to the number of plugins I run, the automatic WP updates and the updates of the Newsmag theme.
So, again, what good will your suggestion do when I reactivate the plugins I have?
Thanks,
Peter
Hi,
The Visual composer plugin can be updated using this guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
This is not a difficult process and it is the only way of updating the editor at the moment. Updates for Visual composer and all the bundled plugins are provided along the theme updates, in the theme package you download. You cannot update the plugin directly from the plugin author.
Thank you for understanding!
Hi, thanks for the code it’s works fine.
That is weir I’ve never had problem like this – with the mobile theme. Anyway I deleted the cache plugin and installed the WP super cache and updated Visual Composer as well.
All was fine the whole evening but this morning I refreshed the page and I can see the big grids alright but rest is in mobile version.
I turned off the – mobile theme yesterday to compare what will be better for me as a mobile version (responsible version or mobile theme). Now I reinstall the mobile plugin and it doesnt help.
Latest version of theme.
Updated plugins.
Facebook counter won’t work. What’s the issue
Hello,
This is a well known issue from newspaper 6.6. Please update your theme using this guide as the issue was fixed a long time ago: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
We are currently at version 7.8.1
Thank you!
Hello,
We are constantly working on updates.
The next update will be out as soon as we are able to finish our implementation and run the testing needed.
Thank you for your patience.
I changed my max execution time to 600 which we then made default minimum on server, as 300 too short for modern WP stuff it seems.
Also make sure using PHP 5.6 or higher (e.g., 5.6.30 with opcache ‘on’). 5.4 is a dog!
Might check those.
Also, periodically
a) resave permalinks
b) clear transients with WP-Optimize or similar.
This clears ‘cobwebs’ esp. after ANY major updates.
Also, be careful with updating plugins for WooCommerce 2x now that 3x is out. I updated to 3X and everything still works, but did get several “your custom templates need updating” notices. Still works though 🙂
( I don’t work here. )
Hello,
Yes, the issue is present because of a missing class on the woocommerce template container. It will be fixed in the next theme update.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have inspected your website and it seems to be working properly, the loading speed is very fast
– https://www.screencast.com/t/QCtviL2cce
For the errors try disabling all your plugins except the ones provided with the theme, clear any caching installed and check again. Also update the plugins bundled with the theme to the latest version, from the theme package.
Thanks
Hi,
Maybe options or settings regarding the headings used will be available in future updates. If the request becomes popular it will be considered by the development team. Please note that the list of requests and possible improvements is forever increasing and we try to do our best to prioritize them, and decide what gets implemented as soon as possible or gets postponed.
Thank you for understanding!
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.
Here is a link to the official Revolution slider documentation
– https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-revolution-documentation/
This is a very complex plugin that features a wealth of options and settings. To get started you can import a demo slider and just assign your categories from which the posts will be displayed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-revolution-sliders-on-demos/
Thanks
Hi,
we have an issues with our WooCommerce layout (background not full width on single product view), since the next-to-last update.
We found out that you added two new css classes in some div classes in other php files, but not in the single-product.php located in /themes/Newspaper/woocommerce/.
We had to customize this file (row 39 & 40) and add this css classes.
<div class="td-main-content-wrap td-main-page-wrap td-container-wrap">
<div class="td-container tdc-content-wrap">
It would be nice to see this files updates in the next Newspaper update.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
Please follow this guide:

and
9512331 for Newsmag.
Thank you!
php version 7 update in server, admin panel show below error, and some portion design broken but front look is ok please give me solution
the same name as their class will not be constructors in a future version of PHP; WPAlchemy_MetaBox has a deprecated constructor in /home/mobilesf/public_html/wp-content/themes/mobileblog/includes/wp_booster/wp-admin/external/wpalchemy/MetaBox.php on line 58
Hi,
I understand what you are saying but there were too many files changed in the theme, from the version you are having at the moment. There were I believe 5 or 6 updates in the meantime that you missed, with many major changes. That is why it would be best if you download the latest theme package and update the whole theme, and the bundled plugins as well.
Thanks
Hi
I am installing the plugin to automatically update the theme.
It is asking for the Envato Item id.
Does anyone know what it is please?
Regards

Hello,
The absolute best and safest way is via FTP as you do not rely on other apps to copy over the files for you. Basically what an update does is simply delete your theme and install it again. It is a very easy thing to do. Simply access the files delete them and upload the new ones. Automatic processes can fail at times. The automatic process is the least safe, then comes wordpress, then the safest is ftp
Thank you!
Hello,
The this is another issue. You have a plugin that is no longer compatible in the current version. Untested plugin can become incompatible on an update even if they worked properly in a previous version.
Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Please also check any custom code you might have added to the theme panel or the theme files. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme to make sure it does not affect the proper functionality of the theme.
Thank you!
Hi, I tried to update the Google Analytics code + make setting changes in the Newspaper Theme Panel options. But the Theme Panel keeps hanging after I clicked Save Settings. Used to work okay. What could have happened? Any way to rectify greatly appreciated thanks!
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 any need to enter a activation key. Updates for these plugins and the other plugins bundled in the theme package will be provided along with the theme updates. You do not have to worry about activation messages or update prompts.
Probably that error message appears when you are trying to activate Visual composer, but as explained you do not have to do that.
Please check the theme status and make modifications to the parameters mentioned in this guide if necesarry
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
The problem with the theme panel can be caused by that, try and follow the guide and check if the issue is resolved.
By installing one of the demo slider you will have the options to use a ready made slide on your website. You will just have to use your own categories from which to pick posts to display. These sliders can be seen in the live demos, like this one for example, the Politics demo
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_politics/
Unfortunately the Visual composer editor can be used only for creating static pages
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/
For a blog you can choose from the available modules to display your articles

I have the exact same issue. Just updated from 7.4 to 7.8.1 and unfortunately this did not resolve the issue. The thumbs on the video’s are loaded from http://img.youtube instead of https://img.youtube thereby breaking my SSL security.
http://img.youtube.com/vi/pmPoaM8PqxU/default.jpg’. This content should also be served over HTTPS.
How did you guys resolve this?
Thank you Simion.
I’m sorry for my English and my insistence. My hosting is who updates the theme. They ask me to try to pose the translation in another way to see if you answer what they request.
They ask if they can update the theme just by uploading the affected files as if it were a microactualization and not loading the whole theme.
I hope this time to be clearer. I am sorry for my English Simion.
Which of the Update forms is the easiest, less riskier and most successful?
1. Via FTP,
2. Automatically or
3. Via WordPress

Hi
for those who have been emailing me via Facebook about how to use WordPress — a great learning resource is free to all at WordPress.org, called the “codex” or “official docs” for learning WP.
To wit, the section on editing the wp-config.php file explains simply how to change the name/location of your theme folder, change name of your plugins/themes folder (wp-content), and put explicit paths to your website URL which helps when moving from http to https.
See:
https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Moving_wp-content_folder
so, this allows you to – for example:
change
/wp-content/themes/Newspaper
to
/wp-content/themes/mysitename
(need to actually change folder; and name in style.css too!)
*and*
you can go step further, and do change to wp-content to be something like
/assets/themes/mysitename
Obviously you need to clear caching, and update any CDN shenanigans, if any.
Pretty simple really. Just need to “read the friendly manual” (RTFM). 🙂
