The social counter isn’t showing up correctly on desktop. It’s showing as white and the links aren’t showing up at all. I tried installing the new theme update, but it crashed by entire site showing.
Has anyone else experienced this?
Hello,
Does anyone have experience running the FooBox Pro lightbox extension with Newspaper?
I’ve been using them together ever since my site launched in November. However, the latest update to FooBox (Version 2.3.2.39) seemed to interfere with Newspaper’s “lazy loading” of images. I turned off this feature in the theme panel which brought images back to our homepage, however, I can’t get the FooBox plugin to function at all.
If it is enabled, the image loads in the browser tab. If it is disabled, Newspaper’s built-in lightbox takes over.
Any suggestions? I’m assuming this all boils down to a javascript conflict somewhere.
Thanks.
UPDATE: I kept changing settings and finally got FooBox working. I’m not sure exactly what I did but there’s definitely a conflict somewhere between the theme and the plugin.

no, the missing style issue on install is from YOU trying to install the wrong zip file — this happens when trying to install theme from the “all files” zip vs just the “theme zip”. See the docs on how to install theme properly, or ask for help. You should start your own topic for install issues you might be having unrelated to another person’s issue.

A great trick I do after each theme update which really helps is
a) resave permalinks
b) use wp-optimize plugin to clear ‘transients’
c) log out of website; close browser.
d) launch browser; clear history;
e) go to home page and hit f5 again anyway to clear cache.
I’ve run into this a couple of times especially with newer versions of PHP running opcache on server for php stuff, separate from any other caching going on.
OK. I’ll ask for the fourth time. How do I update VC?
1) Deactivate VC
2) Entire site goes to 503 error with undefined error Functions Line 207
So then what? I don’t see what to do about that in any of your instructions.
I asked about a Font Icon that disappeared for goodness sake. That’s all I want. And you’re telling me to crash my whole site because it MAY help?
I Use Lumia 640XL. I have updated newest version.
HI
Current version of Newspaper theme if V 7.4 available now on themeforest. In theme’s path is also included V 4.12.1 of Visual Composer. The best way to make a clean update is via FTP method for both theme and plugin. Follow our documentation to update the theme via ftp https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ and do the same with Visual Composer plugin. Please folow this link for more details about how to install a plugin via ftp: http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/
To add new icons in theme’s fonts you will need a bit of codeing. Please check this link for more details in this regard: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/social-share-buttons-in-blog-posts/ My colleague Alin pointed a way here: http://screencast.com/t/7iiTHUHY
Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Hi
What device you use and how updated is the operating system? It is possible to be some issues if you’re using an older version of Android. We always test the theme with the latest versions of each browser, except IE, also the tests are made with the latest versions of Android or iOS. As can be seen from this screen your site works fine with Opera browser on mobile devices. http://screencast.com/t/qOSHBDoq0li The test was made with V 37.0.2192 which is the current mobile version of Opera.
Thanks!
I will have a talk with my colleagues and see what can be done about the social sharing buttons. I cannot promise anything though but I will bring it up for ideas on future updates.
Thank you!
Hello,
If you have newspaper 4, then you will have to delete your current theme and install newspaper 7 from scratch as it will be like switching to a different theme. There were drastic changes since newspaper 4. Please use this guide and check the update from newspaper 4 section: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
I’ve tried it all again once via the filezilla approach in your guide and also the ‘Envato wordpress toolkit version’ both with the same response as before.
I really do not think its a issue with a file not being uploaded correctly as I followed both guides plus I’m sure the Envato toolkit approach must copy all the required fields automatically so any user error on my part should be eliminated.
Will you be investigating the issue anymore as I’ll have to update at some point?
Do you offer any services to investigate further?
@Bogdan-B – you really need to consider updating your post sharing buttons to reflect the rest of the updates on the theme. You’ve done heaps of variations of the social counter widget, but i think the post sharing options (both styling and ability to turn off/on different networks) needs heaps of improvement. Hope you can add this to the list and hopefully i will see this in one of the next few updates.

Hello nycinsider,
Please notice that until now we do not have any bad reports about crashing the site when you try updating the Visual Composer. Use a maintenance plugin, update your Visual Composer according to our documentation because this is the only way for updating Visual Composer, clear all your caches and check the result.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Guys, i have upated my theme and the completly broke my homepage… ol margins are infected.. here is the web http://www.electropiknik.cz does anyone know how to fix this.. i have childtheme also .. but it should not affetct this.
thank you for your help

Hello,
The issue is not related to visual composer i;m almost certain of that. It is most likely a plugin conflict. A js error is in most cases caused by plugins or js optimization or even custom code if you did not implement it properly. If you want the latest version of VC you will have to update your theme as you do not have the latest version and then also update your plugin by following these guides:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hi
As long as you have a valid license for our theme you can download any updates even if the paid support period pass, there is no restriction in this regard.
Thanks!
Hello,
We have not added pinterest in the social counter as it’s already on the social sharing buttons. I already added this request to our update list but I cannot promise anything.
Thank you!
OK. Please let me know when you
1) have the latest theme and vc on envato to download, and
2) have a way to update VC without first crashing the site.
Thank you!!!
Hi,
My developer fixed the responsiveness but the text is still not showing unless I disable JQuery, though I need that plugin and it’s one of the more trusted pin-it plugins. I write paragraphs of text under each H title tag in the smart list and they’re not showing up.
I’m getting a notice that there’s an update to visual composer… my developer seems to think that’s the issue. How can I find the latest version of that?

Our home page on desktop/laptop looks OK but after update mobile view shows some white space under a red block ( below ‘pro hosting text’) https://www.theweb.hosting
Any way to fix this for the mobile view?
This is often a permissions issue where the original folder is ‘owned’ by the server (or Apache) and so WP and FTPuser unable to remove. If you upload via FTP it will be “owned” by the FTPuser and can be removed/updated via FTP in future.
Ask your host to “change ownership to FTPuser” on the old folder to fully delete it.
This happens when WP is sometimes installed via hosting panel, vs installed manually.
I’ve tried to update the via FTP but there was error “folder is not empty”. So I changed name of Newsmag theme and then uploaded 3.2 version and it’s working fine! I have no idea what caused problem because I didn’t change any themes code lines.
It works now and it’s all that matters 🙂
Thank you very much for the information.
I have another question – whether buying support for the next year, I will be able to update the theme to the latest version?
As for subdomains, you can install other demo is obviously Newspaper 7 will soon be with me 🙂 I’m just waiting for information regarding support.
Hi
I’m new to newspaper and I can’t get the sidebar to appear on my pages.
I have set the sidebar position to right and made a custom sidebar and updated the page. but I cant se it… what am I missing?
Hello,
It’s best to use ftp as the latest version of wordpress created this issue where you are not able to delete any theme at all from the admin panel. Please use ftp and delete the theme and install it again using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ (choose the ftp method)
Thank you!
