Hi,
There should be no problem of this kind when you update the theme. Please consult this update tutorial
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
And the theme changelog here – https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609
Maybe you are trying to use the Big grid on 1 or 2 columns, and that is not possible in the latest version, and now displays an error message.
Also please make sure you update the plugins bundled with the theme along with the theme update.
Thanks
Hello,
Unfortunately there is no update. Envato will send that email 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 the inconvenience.
Hello,
There was no update this month but envato updates the date even if we change a single letter on our theme page. There were a few technical difficulties and the theme had to be removed from envato for a short period of time. Now it’s back but it also updated the date on the page. But there was no theme update. An update would change the theme version as well. As you can see in the changelog the last update was 7.8.
Thank you!
Hi,
I keep getting updates from Themeforest about new updates coming out, which is cool.
But – I can’t find any release notes and/or changelog that includes breaking changes or any changes at all..
Am I missing it somehow?
Hi,
I can see the Big grid is present on top of the page, but it is not displaying properly and does not contain any modules. Maybe something was damaged in the theme by this reset. Try to uninstall and remove the Visual composer plugin, the upload the latest version from the theme package – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Then edit your homepage and remove the big grid from the page structure, and add it again. Then update the page and check to see if the problem is still there. Also disable all your other plugins except Visual composer, and clear the cache installed, to rule this out as a cause. It is also good to have backups in case something unexpected happens, just to be safe.
Thanks
But the latest version is not available, in the change log it says updated 21/03/17 but I had notification of a new update 04/04/17 The new version is not there. When can we download the latest version?
Hello,
CSS works in cascades so when there are more then 1 rewrite of the same color, you will be able to see each change happen especial if your connection is slow. If you load a theme demo that changes the colors that is one rewire and if you change the colors again that would be the second one and already you will be able to see the changes happen on page loading. That is the way css works and there is little to be done about it unfortunately. You can make the changes directly in style.css but you will have to re-add them on each update.
You can see the compiled code in your page source: https://www.screencast.com/t/BddeG11R
You can try to add that code at the bottom of style.css
Thank you!
Hi,
Unfortunately there is no option at the moment to change the width of the theme. This kind of modification can only be done with custom code – https://www.screencast.com/t/NAJmeIXPjWqt modifying the theme files directly or through a child theme – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Please note that if you choose to use the mobile theme plugin, the sidebar set on desktop will not be displayed on mobile – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ but if you are not, the sidebar will be displayed after the article in the post page.
Maybe some options for changing the width of the theme will be made available in future updates, but I can not say for sure if or when this will happen. The theme is in a continuous development process, and each update is meant to improve it and we take in account our users requests.
Thank you for understanding!
I have got mail from tagdiv regarding update available . but when I goes to Envato toolkit plugin its not showing in that. there is no any option to update theme via Envato toolkit. So please check and tell me why that option is not coming there.
@Bogdan – That’s the same response that I received many times when i raised a question on shortcodes. Not only this question for many other question i was told the same thing and till now the features are not implemented. One thing that I want to mention here, I have seen few theme authors who create something called future updates page and there is voting option available for users. With this the users can post their feature required and others can vote if they want the same feature to be seen in the theme. Once it’s voted by many people, it will be implemented in the theme. In your case, we don’t even know what’s on your update list, there is no transparency on what is coming up in next update. I have asked this question many times but you have a standard answer template ready. As a buyer/theme user if i get to know what is coming up in next update, it would be really exciting. I just want to suggest few things to improve the theme but it’s not heard at all.
@Chris – Thank you so much. Looks like I have to find another way to fulfill my shortcode requirement.
Not able to find version log for 4 April 17 update, please do the needful.
I have done everything as showed here https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial-2/
Still youtube suscribers is not updated in my site subdominioreportedental.johngil.com
I even uninstall and reinstall the plugin but it still doesn’t work
Please help!
I received an email today notifying that there is a new update, but when checking just the current version 7.8.
Don’t check any new version, the email was wrong?
Thanks

How to update the theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Read section A. Update the theme via FTP
I’m writing to ask how to identify the latest version. I ask because Envato sends users Emails notifying us of updates. I downloaded the latest update, and it is version 7.8. But I already have that update. Are you numbering subdates somewhere (e.g. 7.8.2)? I can’t find it in the download files.
Thanks, tom
Since i installed the latest update, this is happening to my header. I have to go back to the old version to have it shown correctly.
Please help
Good day,
How to display this on modified date?
Example: Last updated on March 5, 2017 by Editorial Staff
In the loop-single-5.php, I replace <?php echo $td_mod_single->get_date(false);?> to
<?php echo the_modified_date(‘F j, Y’, ‘<div class=”the-modified-date”>Last Updated on ‘,’ by </div>’);?>
the outcome is:
By Editorial Staff -Last Updated on March 5, 2017 by
I can’t place the author on the last line and remove the dash –
Can you help me with the code to make it like this one:
Last updated on March 5, 2017 by Editorial Staff
Thank you.
Hello,
Sorry but we have no plan on implementing more shortcodes outside the page builder as you describe. Maybe in future versions we will add more of them but for now we have no such plans. I added this request on our list for future updates but this request must become more popular as we have lots of requests and we have to prioritize.
Thank you!
Hello agidulyan,
In a future update, it is possible but we cannot say for sure if it will get done in the next update because we have a big list of fixes, improvements, and suggestions to implement. It’s hard to filter them and select which one gets implemented now and which one gets postponed. The developers decide if it gets done or not, though.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello tagDiv Team,
Thanks for the great template, I’ve been using it for a few years and I’m really happy about it. The latest updates make it even better to use. Also appreciate the tons of documentation and visual examples.
I’m currently thinking of changing my template and I was wondering if there is an option to set a maximum width for a post/page to avoid the text to be stretch on larger screen like MBP Retina (making the content difficult to read).
If I use a sidebar on a post/page there is no problem as there is already a max width set by default apparently. But if I remove the sidebar (in the option) I ended up with a very strech text.
– See example of a post with Sidebar
– See example of a page without sidebar
I know I can edit the code to set a max width directly, but I was wondering if there’s an option in the theme to do it already (so I have no worries when I update the theme). And if not it will probably be a good addition.
The main reason for me to getting rid of the sidebar is now almost 60% of my traffic is mobile and people don’t see it/use it (not to mention it will slow the the display for mobile user). Thanks for reading and have a great day!
You can get a refund for the additional support through Envato/Themeforest.
As it happens, I downloaded the latest version from elsewhere, as I needed to update. If you Google “Newspaper 7.8 download” you’ll find it
Hi,
After you deactivate the Visual composer plugin you must also delete it and then upload the new version. Here is a tutorial about the update process – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
If it says that the folder already exists you must check in the wp-content/plugins folder if there still is a js_composer folder and remove it, then try the installation again. Disabling and deleting it from the plugins section should remove this folder automatically.
Thanks
Hi,
There is no option to make the post page full width, at the moment. If you would like to have more space for the post content try removing the sidebar from the post if you consider that this will be better. With the latest update there were introduced some settings to make a few of the elements full width – https://www.screencast.com/t/gkDA9usPPh maybe some other full width options will be available in a future update, but I can not say for sure if or when this will happen.
Thanks
