Update: Figured out how to get it fixed! So nevermind about that. I was also wondering how I can change the style of my “load more” button on infinity load. specifically, I would like it like on http://sneakerbardetroit.com/ (with a black background and red hover). Thanks!
Update: I figured out what I was doing wrong. Nevermind!
Also seems to help, after update
a) resave permalinks
b) clear all ‘transients’ with wp-optimize plugin
I added new post on Instagram but are not updated on the site
Please note that Instagram is not a live widget. It will grab the latest info but it will only make a few requests per day to the server to keep requests to a minimum.

Hahahaha it still sounds hard XD. The video just doesn’t match with what I am seeing, but nevermind though. I did the automatic way and now I have this button ready, but I had a feq short questions about that:
– Does it delete my CSS code? That way I can just copy it and paste it after the update.
– How long does it take, because I tried it when I was in the library and it was taking a very long time. I decided to go to the dashboard and see the update button again and I had to do it all over again. If I know how long it takes on a average I can know when something is wrong when it takes too much time.
Thanks Bogdan,
I have removed and reinstalled the two plugins and now work correctly.
Now, however, I noticed another problem: I added new post on Instagram but are not updated on the site (there are always the old ones), why?

Hi,
I have a number of text blocks on the page. I need to change border color for all of them. For some reason, it´s impossible. I go to “Text block settings” -> “Design settings” -> “Border color” -> select different color – > “Save changes” – > “Update”. Then go to see updated page and nothing changed. When go back to “Text block settings” -> “Design settings”, the “Border color” has the same color as before i changed it. As if changes don´t save. When i change background, everything works. When i change border color, it doesn´t save my selection. Can you help? I am attching the screen
Hi,
I am trying to update the font of the category tag in a variety of modules and blocks. The font I am using is Quicksand. I am using it throughout my theme with no problems. I also am using it for the category tag in Big Grid 3. In the theme settings I have changed all the fonts to Quicksand and as mentioned this works for Big Grid 3. However, it doesn’t work for any of the blocks. Here the font is Open Sans, or whatever the default theme font is. When going into theme settings and changing the font for categories to one of the default available ones, it works. However, not for an imported Google Font.
Hi,
We cannot provide you an accurate answer if we cannot inspect this.
You can try to set the background color for main menu and header transparent from Theme Panel > Theme Colors – http://screencast.com/t/7CDw8RQehU and add negative top margin for the column where you use the Slider – http://screencast.com/t/Z4SohlWZPE6r – http://screencast.com/t/fDkYpn03
You may need additional adjustments, I have just provided and example.
In the next theme version we will update also the Revolution Slider plugin.
Thanks!
Hello there,
thank you for your fast answers and help! I will keep that in mind.
Now I solved every problem except the comment counter. In my theme panel I turned them off (in “Post and Custom Post Types”), but they are still there (since the update).
Have a nice day!
Hi Bogdan,
Thanks for your reply.
If you read my first post you will read this “I’m trying to use the Full Width Revolution Slider on the Homepage. I don’t have any color or image as a background, I selected “Full Width” on the Slider’s settings, I stretched the rows through Visual Composer and still looks boxed. Am I missing something?”
So, the background color was cleared since the very beginning…
Anyway, I downloaded the theme again, made a clean installation and suddenly started working. I have no idea what the problem was, but with the new install started working.
I would have been more than happy to send you a link to the website but I’m working locally.
Now, that the full width issue is solved, I would like to ask you about moving the Rev Slider behind the menu, here’s my original question from the first post “Finally, I noticed that another customer asked about css code that allows the nav menu to be transparent and placed over the image slider? If it can be done without messing too much with the theme and affecting the responsiveness I will be really appreciated.”
One last thing, please release the Rev Slider update, after what happened with the famous exploit (because of that I lost a couple of websites I was working on and my computer was seriously damaged), I’m extremely careful with that plugin.
Thanks for your help,
Hoping to hear from you soon,
After updated to wordpress 4.5.x, I cannot insert [video][/video] markup into the post via InsertMedia button.
When using Chrome console inspect the error, I found it shows as ‘Uncaught Error: Syntax error, unrecognized expression: [video width="1920" height="1080" mp4="http://www.xxxxxx.xxx/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/123.mp4"][/video]‘.
I guess it might be a jQuery error.
How can I fix it?
Hi
Please make sure that you follow our documentation in order to install the theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ clear all caches then test the site again. Basically you need to unzip the Newspaper-tf.zip file and upload Newspaper.zip file in your wordpress.
Let us know ho it goes.
Thanks!
Hello ShowbizCool,
We have not made any tests with newsmag for the moment. We did add PHP 7 compatibility with our newspaper theme and both themes share the same core. There is a slim change PHP 7 will not work with newsmag as well, but I cannot say for sure at the moment. We will run tests and add compatibility for it in the next theme update.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
1. We will not minify the style files as people will need to make modifications in the theme code so we cannot provide pre-minified files as it would be very hard for the users that need to customize them.
2. I will add this as a suggestion for future updates.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately we have tons of suggestions and we must pick very carefully what we implement in our theme. We already have a social media plugin that comes with our theme so we do not plan on testing any social media plugins. I will add your suggestion to our list for future updates though and we will consider it.
You will have to search for a plugin that can do this for the time being.
Thank you!
Hello Satsuki,
Please keep in mind that our theme allows you three way of theme updating as you can see in our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ The surest and safe way of theme installing is FTP and we recommend to update your theme through this method. Notice that when a new theme version was released you will receive a notification on email.
Regarding on your second request, I have inspected your website and I did not saw any problems regarding on your images. All of these seems to work as expected. Also, the theme come bundled with the latest version of Visual Composer which is 5.0.1 as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/jECaNxaqOl
If you need more assistance in this regard and if your problem is still there, please provide some useful screenshots where to explain the problem.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
I updated to the newer version of newsmag theme 3.3 and the above solution of putting ads through short code has stopped working.
I had put the two custom ads through shortcodes in loop-single-2.php for showing ads at the bottom but after the upgrade it is not working. Is there another way to put the code now?
Hi Chris
Don’t see “updated for PHP7 compatiblity…” in the change log. That is for this theme and Newspaper. Yet TagDiv say yes tested their Newspaper theme and all ok.
Running a code checker relating to PHP 7 both produce three errors (all three the same, down from four). Visual Composer has one error reported (as above). That said, we have been running both themes with PHP 7 for months now with no obvious problems.
Be good if TagDiv could confirm they have also tested Newsmag for running under PHP 7 to remove any running doubt.
Thanks
Also remember when editing elements on a ‘page’ in VC, when you save things in the VC panel, you still need to save the actual ‘page’ containing the VC elements.
Then clear browser cache to view updated page.
That’s what I do anyway. 😉
I was experiencing the error regarding something regarding the tagdiv_Mobile plugin creating a issue on line XX. The only thing my hosting provider thought was to uninstall this app so I could update the theme.
Does anyone know how to reinstall this “mobile” plugin?
Not my theme, as i’ve said previously.
Just being helpful to answer your questions while I’m waiting for my server updates to finish over here 🙂
In WordPress, you cannot ‘auto update’ themes unless in the WordPress.org repository, or if there is some intrusive wrapper plugin built into a theme “framework” which is a security risk.
FTP is best way to update/backup your site. Seriously, worth learning to do properly, along with periodic MySQL/phpMyAdmin backups for safe keeping!
Hello,
Thanks for your response, but again, that means I have to be a programmer to do that for all my themes manually.
Why is the back-end showing that all themes are current here: http://……/wp-admin/update-core.php? Does your theme not have a “call home” function to allow for easy and user-friendly updates?
Thanks,
Peter
The Envato toolkit has never quite worked right for us, so typically best to do updates via FTP so you can take full site backup same time in case you need to “roll back,” and also to ensure everything uploaded properly.
Highly recommended to do updates via FTP, as many folks the past 3 years I’ve been around here have had numerous problems with broken sites using the Envato updater.
Just a suggestion.
Also, Google is super useful to do searches like
“what happened to envato toolkit”
e.g.,
https://forums.envato.com/t/envato-market-wordpress-plugin-beta/21639
http://envato.github.io/wp-envato-market/
QUOTE: “I’m excited to announce the new Envato Market WordPress Plugin. When installed into WordPress the plugin notifies buyers of updates to their Envato purchased themes and plugins, and allows installation of updates directly from within WordPress. We are initially launching the plugin as a beta in order to get feedback from buyers and authors on usability and likeliness to use.
The new plugin replaces the Envato WordPress Toolkit which uses the old API and will therefore be decommissioned along aside it early next year. There are some key differences between the toolkit and the new plugin, namely; the new plugin updates both themes and plugins, it uses the new API with OAuth, it updates itself when a new version is available and doesn’t require authors to integrate a complicated library into their items.”
Hi,
1. Are you guys planning on minimizing style file(s)?
2. Can you update the theme files that when you enter a source at the post meta box via Source Name, Source URL that it can be opened on a new page?
Thank you/
