My web is https://desdelaraiz.com
I have the following issues:
1. Is there any option to notify the replies to the people who commented on the blog?
2. If you check the social media on the footer, they are not 100% centered. How can I center them?
3. If you check the website on macintosh, the text is much more thick, and some fonts looks very different. What can I do?
4. Sometimes, when you load more posts trought load more or arrows, it gets stuck loading.
Other problems with the theme panel:
5. When I modify any option on the theme panel, 30% of the times it gets stuck loading.
6. When I publish an article or I update it, sometimes it drives you to a error message.
I hope you can give me solutions. Maybe some problems are frequent to other people and need to be fix on the next updates, or maybe there is an incompatibility with a plugin or something.
Right now, the most important problem I want to solve as soon as posible is the number 3.
Thank you.
Thank you Catalin for your appropriate answer. I will follow your guidelines to update the theme.
Could you also helo me with the sidebar? How can I put a sidebar to the whole website(both in pages and posts)? My website which I want to update is the northbasket.gr and I want to achive a same sidebar like this one
Hello,
Please make sure you use the latest theme version. Use this guide to update if needed: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
The make sure your memory allocation is done properly: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ and also check without plugins. 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,
Matched content ads were never officially tested with our theme so there is no official implementation method. I have no solution at the moment for this, we would have to make tests for compatibility and see why this is happening in conjunction with the Speedbooster plugin. If this will be implemented in a future update it will be fully supported and every aspect shall be taken into account. Maybe you can find a cause and solution and post the results here.
Thank you for understanding!
Hello,
we are experiencing some eventon visualization problem due to Newspaper update.
We updated a project to 7.8 and all aorund the site where the Eventon shortcode is palced in text module in Visual Composer, the visualization shows some problems.
No problems are showed on normal page or post.
Now we have also another older develop ambient with this site, running Newspaper 7.5 and the plugin is working fine in VC.
We wouldn’t like to downgrade the theme, so what can you suggest us?
Is there any fix you can suggest?
Thank you
Hi,
If you have configured the cache properly, each time a new post is published or a page is updated, the cache will be automatically refreshed, according to the documentation. Also make sure this setting is checked
– https://www.screencast.com/t/btlTqI8gqv and then make a test and change a setting in the theme panel (like a color or font for example), and refresh the page.
Thanks

Hello,
These are not issues. It is simply your cache affecting the social counter. The counter is affected by cache and will not update until it is free. Pleas only use wp super cache and these settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Also please contact your host and have them disable any hosting side cache.
Thank you!
Ok, so did you follow my suggestion from the envato comments section?
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/lost-breadcrumb-index-by-google-after-update-7-6/
Thanks.
The theme includes a license for this plugin so you don’t have to buy it.

Hi,
We have not received any messages from you here on the forum, this being the first topic you have started. Please specify what are the complications that you encounter contacting us. You can post any issue or question here on the forum, and we will provide you an answer in the allocated support hours (Monday – Friday:
8:00 AM – 17:00 PM)
Regarding the notification you have received, unfortunately there is no update. An email will be sent even if we simply change the presentation page on Envato. It notifies a change but it cannot know if we updated our presentation page or if we released a new update. It is a flaw in the system. Sorry for any inconvenience this situation might have caused you.
Thank you for understanding!
Hi,
From what I can see after inspecting your website, you are using an older version of the theme with many customizations and plugins that can be causing this. I would suggest to disable all your plugins except the ones bundled with the theme, clear any caching installed and try to see if this solves the problem. If not, you can try to update the theme – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and use only the plugins provided in the package updated to the latest version, and you should have no more problems in this matter and you can test the page in the validator. Then you could activate your plugins one at a time and possibly identify the cause.
Most likely this is caused by plugins, or custom modification to the theme, because we had no other similar reports regarding this.
Thanks
Hello dimmisel,
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 7.8 and as the main theme and also you lose all changes.
The Newspaper 7.8 is a whole new theme so an update from 4 to 7.8 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 7.8 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.
If you have already Newspaper 6 and you want only to do the update to latest version, you should make this without any problem. All your customization are recorded in the database which is not affected by this update.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
I have tested the background on my end but could not find any issues with the category pages.
The woocommerce template does seem top have this issue though.
I will add this to our bug list and fix it in the next update.
You can add that missing class in these 2 files to fix the issue: https://www.screencast.com/t/hYi2Q29DJ
Sorry for the inconvenience
Hello micheal221,
For more information about how you can update your Visual Composer, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Thanks for the message!
Okay, little update on the issue.
Firstly, I installed the new plugin that You gave me here. What is the code difference in it?
The new plugin picked the Facebook Access Token straight away, without even pressing. It was the same I could find on the facebook developers page-settings-advanced. Vut it still did not work (at least no numbers were showen). Then I pressed “Get Access Token” again, and the token has changed to more similar to the one thats on documentation. (Weird?)
Then I went to sleep, and after 5 hours i checked and counter seems to be showing the amount of likes correctly.
Please can you fix these issues, and also update the documentation. Cheers.
Hi Team,
I’ve just updated my newspaper theme sent by themeforest. Before that, I was using v7.7.1. I did have Background color set to Grey. After updating to v7.8, my blocks on homepage are become on edges which are clearly visible that there is no padding between the Grey background color and block’s title, content and thumb images.
It seems too ugly now. Please help me how to correct it/add padding or something wrong I’ve done?
I am also using Child theme, where there are lot of customization I already have.
Thanks,
Hello,
Unfortunately this is not theme related. The theme settings and theme data is kept in the database. If your database is reset after an update, then it’s either a faulty wordpress install or a corrupt database. There is nothing on the theme side that can reset the settings after an update. Especially if it’s a wordpress update.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Updating_WordPress
Thank you!
Hello,
The settings in the theme panel will not be lost. If you alter the theme files, then you will loose the customization as files get replaced when updating. IF you use a child theme, the files will not get replaced automatically but if you made customization in the child theme you should check if the file was modified in the theme update as you will have to update the file in the child theme and re-apply your customization to the new version of the file. You cannot serve an old file from your child theme with old code when the theme requires the new code to work.
Thank you!
Hello,
The new update is ready and will be out as soon as all the testing on it is done. It will come out in the following days.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Hi,
Unfortunately I can not give you a definite solution for this. This is the way the theme was designed, and if it would be easy as to just change a line of code I would be more then happy to help you. But as I said it requires major changes to change the breaking point for the mobile menu to display, and no solution was provided on this forum regarding this as a reference point. Please keep in mind that this could be a theme option in a future update, but I can not say for sure if or when this will happen. I am sorry that I could not provide you with a solution in this matter.
Thank you for understanding!
Update: I’ve checked my website on someone else’s iPhone and all three issues are almost certainly a caching issue.
So let me rephrase my issues 😛
1. How do I fully empty the cache on both Android and iPhone for testing? Because I manually empty cache on Safari and Chrome and new updates are still not reflected.
2. Is there a way to force a visitor to see the most recent version of my website?
Thanks!
i got an email that there is an update and for that I had to go to my downloads and I tried so much but I could not do it, If I try to login at Envato page I can login but when I try to go through my email link it does not let me login, its been tried various times and its so frustrating. Then I tried logging in at Tagdiv, but I could not find any downloads available there as well. I request you to please some body may help me or instruct me how I can call and get some help. This is why I bought support along with the theme. If I can not get the support like this then I would like to request you to please refund me for the money I paid for the support. Thanks
Update on point 3: I checked on my desktop browser and the new background image for mobile menu/search background seems to be working properly when reducing browser width below 767, but the old image still persists when visiting on my Android smartphone on Google Chrome. Could this be some cache issue I’m overlooking?
Note: I disabled the “Mobile theme” plugin because I would rather the mobile version of the website be based on responsive web design.
The website with issues:
wuche.gg
Issues with responsive web on mobile (Android, but presumably iOS as well)
1. On the front page Big Grids, the offset posts feature works on desktop browsers but does not work on mobile browsers. All Big Grids are set to sort by -Latest-.
2. I’m using custom css for the module title fonts on Big Grid Full 1 & 2 because the option to change it via module on Theme Fonts isn’t implemented yet.
.td_block_big_grid_fl_1 .td-module-title a{
font-family: ‘Source Sans Pro’, sans-serif;
font-weight: 600;
font-size: 42px;
line-height: 44px;
}
.td_block_big_grid_fl_2 .td-module-title a{
font-family: ‘Source Sans Pro’, sans-serif;
font-weight: 600;
font-size: 26px;
line-height: 28px;
}
It works perfectly, but I want it to be responsive as well and downsize the font when below a certain width. So I added this code also to Big Grid Full 1 just to test out:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td_block_big_grid_fl_1 .td-module-title a{
font-size:30px!important
} }
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td_block_big_grid_fl_1 .td-module-title a{
line-height:32px!important
} }
And while it works this works perfectly on desktop, it does not work on mobile.
3. I deleted/changed the background image for mobile menu / search background, but it still persists.
Whenever I make an update, I clear the cache on Google Chrome on my Android phone. I also empty the cache via WordPress, and I also have disabled the WP Super Cache plugin just to triple check.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please and thank you!
