Hi,
I downgraded to PHP5.something, and that solved the problem. I will wait for the theme to be updated.
Tks.
I just updated my theme, but all Newsmag font icons are gone.
Hi Simlon C
That’s great thank you. It would probably be a good idea they don’t use a popup telling us to activate it would it not?
That popup message says we cannot use all features of the plugin if we dont buy a license AND will not get updates.
I take your word for it but it seems to be a rather misleading way for them to get us to pay an extra $34
Hello,
These are warnings that in most cases could be ignored. As long as there are no errors, the site should be fine. You are testing with a php checker so they could not be errors on your site at all. This will detect all of the code and these could not show up anywhere. Nonetheless I will add this to our list for future updates and have a look. Unfortunately since the warning originate from the visual composer and revolution slider plugins, there will be little to be done from the theme’s side. We are not allowed to edit the plugin code as it will break our license agreement. Please make sure both plugins are up to date using the latest version of the theme (latest version of the plugins can be found in the latest version of the theme’s package)
Visual composer as well as revolution slider are working on adding compatibility for PHP 7 as can be seen here: https://www.screencast.com/t/RkeIneluV but there could be a few such warnings that were missed and will be updated in future versions. Warnings usually do not break the functionality.
Thank you!
Hello! 🙂
I updated my website with the latest version of Newspaper and the same for the plugins. But now there is a strange things with thumbnails, they are too small, but only when I use 2 columns on the Visual Composer.
I tried to re-generate these, de-activate/re-activate plugins… Nothing works.
See at the bottom of the home.
And when I use the same block but on 2/3 – 1/3 grid : here.
Here is the website : We Need Cafeine
Any idea?
Thank you!
The option is only available in more recent versions. Please update your theme to the latest version using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
Hello,
We have investigated this further and found that the thumbnails will remain on http on the old videos you already had set up before moving to https. If you create a new playlist with other videos, the thumbs will be grabbed with https. The thumbs will not refresh it seems when deleting and re-creating the element. The thumbs will be kept in the database and will not make another request to grab the same thumb again. So the issue will only affect your existing plyalist. If you create a new one with different videos, they will be grabbed over https. In order to fix the current video thumbs you will have to first make a database back-up as you will have to edit the database with a search and replace plugin and change the url’s for your current video thumbnails from http to https. The video thumb url’s all look like so: http://i.vimeocdn.com/video/ You should search the database and replace the http with https.
The table from the database is called wp_postmeta
I will add this issue to our list for future updates so in a future version of the theme we can add a functionality for the playlist thumbs.
Thank you and sorry for the inconvenience.
Hello Elevas32,
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 Robert,
If you want to display the full-width your row, you should make your Row from Visual Composer to be the stretch, like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/I3dQF2Cr. For more information about how you should use the Visual Composer, please consult here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thanks for the message!
Hi, I’m having a lot of problems with the topic of indexing. 10 days ago I put newspaper theme but presents many problems. The first is the problem of dates in snnipets, my content is evergreen and the dates appeared, at the end I managed to hide them with the option to hide the dates in goal, but not always hide them. The second problem I have is that if you update the article .. You do not update the update date in the snnipets, that’s a serious problem of basic seo. And the third one I’m having a lot of problems when I change the title of the articles, I index them with Google search console with immediate indexing and do not change, they still show the title of the old article, it’s a very serious problem.
Hi,
Is there someway I can check that the theme updated correctly? After updating I ran the PHP compatibility checker and get incompatibility errors for visual composer and slider revolution. Here’s the notes for Visual Composer:

Sounds like caching issue on your host setup.
Had issue with client, hosted on GoDaddy, similar issue. Had to clear the ‘cache’ in the GoDaddy panel twice to see changes on home page, or product pages.
Also, with Chrome, helps to do the force reset option as well when viewing a page after update.
Not sure that helps – but not theme specific.
But ALSO check the ‘system status’ to ensure you have enough RAM allocated to WP.
We’re not having that issue here, but we have a more controlled setup than you.
(I don’t work here; just been using the TD themes for 3 years now!)
Hi, I just got the updated theme, and I’m building a new site. I’ve built other sites with the theme, but I’m puzzled by a few new aspects and I can’t find how to do what I want in the documentation. Thank you.
First, I loaded the Travel Guide & Idea Demo, because I love the look of the image right below the header menu that has the block images superimposed onto it. But I’d like to replace the image that came with the theme with my image, and for the life of me I can’t find how to access it. (It’s probably very simple. 🙂 ).
Second, the homepage of the theme has dashed lines separating the blocks as you go down the page. I would like to either remove or alter those lines (so they have a different look), and again I can’t find how to access them.
Thanks! I love all the things you’re adding to the theme.
Our SSL certificate is definitely set up.
The only problem we have is the Vimeo widget from Visual Basic using HTTP as a URL.
I’ve updated all of the URLs on the site and it’s still not fixed.
You will get that error “once” each time you change/update the main theme files, as during the update, some pages redirect or allow pointing to the theme root, which should not happen. On high traffic sites, you’d normally use a “down for maintenance” plugin to avoid this.
Normally having ONE instance of the error is normal.
If you have “constant” errors, somebody might be trying to hack your site, and you need to use some mitigation tools.
Since updating the theme I have experienced very slow load times both front and backend of the site.
I am showing some 60+ “slow queries” in the Query Monitor plugin, many of them relating to
SELECT post_id, meta_key, meta_value
FROM gmgQKTmJpostmeta
WHERE post_id IN (66700)
ORDER BY meta_id ASC
update_meta_cache()
wp-includes/meta.php:826
Is this theme related ?
Site is http://www.jedinews.co.uk
Hi ¡ well i think that show the last update on post is very important on seo my more popular post now have the first publication date and not the last update i loss a lot of keywords 🙁 please fix it. Thanks
Hello,
Please update to the latest version of the theme and visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Then make sure you install PHP version 7.0
The theme is now compatible with php 7.0
Do not install 7.1 as it is not yet compatible.
Thank you!
Hello nairolf,
Thank you for your reply here. Also, please keep in mind that the website of ‘Bintmusic’ has been deeper inspected and the render blockings which Google does not consider to be moved in the footer these are even moved in this section by the plugin, which means that the Speed Booster works as expected. I agree with you, if you remove the Google Fonts, the theme will have a good page speed loading because your website will load with less one resource. Notice that the Speed Booster only moves the resources in the footer and it does not delete them, right? This topic will be available to be read by our developers and if they consider making some adjustments for this regard, notice that all of these changes will be included in our future updates.
Thanks for your understanding!
If i wanted to check to make sure that all my stuff is updated correctly. How can I check what the latests version is?
Hi,
The Visual composer editor plugin comes pre-activated, you do not have to activate it to be able to use it. Updates for the theme plugins – https://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/ will be provided along with the theme updates. Here is more information related to this – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ Also you can find all the theme documentation here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/
Thanks

Thank you!
Hi!
We are working with Newspaper 7 and we cannot manage to keep active the visual composer (VC) for posts. We set up in the visual composer settings so it will be active for: pages/posts/mega footer but then once we edit any post with the VC once we publish or update it then it comes back to the regular editor and VC disappears..and we need to go back to the setting of the VC and reset again the permissions for pages… we are in this loop for a while now and struggling to solve it!
Thanks in advanced
Ok, scratch that, it just took about an hour to update it seems.
New question: how can I remove the default “About Us” and “Follow Us” text in the footer of the mobile theme?
