Hello,
1) The mobile theme has it;s own ad spots: http://screencast.com/t/c5eOjNN5u
2) You also need to update the plugins after updating the theme. Please update your visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ and use the same method to update the social counter as it is required for newspaper 7.
Thank you!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and noticed that you’re using an older version of Newsmag theme. Try to update the theme at V 3,1 which is available on themeforest, update Visual Composer at V 4.1, this version is included in theme’s patch, deactivate the child theme, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches purge cdn files then test the site again.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi
Unfortunately those files cannot be overwritten from child theme, sorry. We plan to extend the child theme support for the theme in near future but for thew moment only the files indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-child-theme-support/
For now you need to keep track your modifications and re-add theme after each update.
Thanks!
Did you also update the tagdiv plugins via ftp at same time?
I noticed I had no visual composer and, through looking into it on the forums, found that I’d need to update all my themes.
Updating through WP wasn’t working, so I FTPd into my site and renamed the old newspaper theme. Then returning to WP to upload the newer verison. That worked well until I go to my mainpage, which now states “Fatal error: Call to undefined function vc_map_get_attributes() in /home/dlisaacs/theautoreporter.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/vc_templates/vc_row.php on line 32”
IT IS VITAL I get my site back up and running!! Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
Pages, including a high-traffic downloadable PDF map, are visible on desktops and tablet but NOT on phones. (Clients trying to access the map on their phones brought this to our attention.) Our consultant, who is out on family leave, suspects something may have gone wrong with the mobile theme code during recent updates. The pages affected were created using another theme and transferred to this one within the past quarter.
Thank you for your assistance.
After updated to 7.3 can’t configure ‘Thumbs on modules & block’, see imagem below:

And some icons only appear when I click on them.
This text is from “Newspaper 7.3 update” Fixed Post in the forum.
TRY THIS:
“Here is a fix for the mobile theme issue for the moment until the new update is released:
Add this code in the mobile theme’s function.php:
td_global::$td_options = get_option(TD_THEME_OPTIONS_NAME); //read the theme settings once
It should look like so: http://screencast.com/t/ke18K42lG “
Hi,
the mobile theme doesn’t work after 7.3 update…
I tried to update again today as per the “fix” applied in it. I think it was working for moment, but now again nothing.
can you please tell me how to fix this as I’m losing 70% of the site income because of this!
Hi there,

2) I updated theme to 7 already eveytime I add Facebook ID, app ID… to the Social counter plugin and press update my front page, it sucks and doesn’t display on front page.
Thank you
Hi team,
I am now suddenly getting a 404 error when trying to make some changes. I have deactivated most of the plugins, but to no avail.
I can also not update ads on the theme panel as nothing happens except that that block in the middle keeps on turning.
Hello Thomas,
Thank you for your suggestion. I will ad this to our list for future updates.
It’s always good to see our hard work is appreciated
Thanks.
Hi
Note that the child theme was also update and if you’e using V 1.7 the update must be done clean, by this I mean that you have to upload a fresh copy of Newsmag theme and also update the child theme.
You can create you own header.php in child theme as that file can be overwritten there. For more details about child theme support please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-child-theme-support/
Since V 3 we added option which allows you to deactivate post meta on modules. They can be found in theme panel > block settings: http://screencast.com/t/8spjYmoTgf
Thanks!
hi I am installing wordpress on my linux hosting where I am stuck with the below option. There is option to choose automatic update. Which one should i choose ?. Should i let godaddy update wordpress version automatically ?. Will this crash my website if the wordpress version gets upgraded and not the theme ?.
Automatic Update
a) Do not automatically update.
b) Update to new minor versions and security releases.
c) Update to any new version.
Can I do this (adding custom spots) somehow on the child theme? Because if I do this on the main theme, I will lose everything at the next update. [And probably I won’t remember the changes I made anyway.]
Hello Rousing The Kop,
Please keep in mind that our theme has been designed to be more useful both desktop and mobile mode. So, at the moment, please notice that our theme has 2 alternatives for mobile mode -> the first one is named as default mobile which all the element from desktop version is compressed to look better on mobile mode and the second one is named Mobile Theme which is totally different than your desktop…as you can see in our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ the mobile theme only display the Big Grid with Featured posts at the front of your page, some texts if this will be written from the backend (Mobile Editor) and at the bottom you will bring the Latest Articles module. Please notice that you cannot bring the sale layout on the mobile which looks as similar with on the desktop without responsiveness because the width is different.
The author will need a bit of a CSS fix as the CSS got changed a bit in the new update but the author name was not updated for it. So until the next theme version please use this CSS code in the mobile theme’s custom code box:
.td-post-author-name div { display:inline; }
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Krizzi78,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have such an option for this Social Networks. 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. Until we can do it, you can use a plugin.
Thanks for your suggestion and understanding!
Hello Bintmusic,
Please keep in mind that until now we have only two bad reports from 28 000 users, regarding on loosing traffic and these were from various cases and not from our latest update. From our point of view, the latest version of the theme is very stable and you can use it without any problem. Please notice that we do not release any defect update.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi Lucian,
I think it would be a great idea, if you updated the help text in Newspaper => Translations => Load an available translation => More information, to include Danish (screenshot here).
I nearly missed the fact, that a real (non-Google) translation was available in Danish, and started translating the whole thing from scratch.
Google Translate is not the greatest when it comes to Danish, so the fact that there is a “real” translation, was really a great help. However, had I not found this post, I would have missed it, and done the whole thing myself 🙂
Anyways, just an idea for the next update. Newspaper is an awesome theme, thank you for all your continued hard work on it!
Cheers,
Thomas
Hello Amme89,
After several investigations in this regard have concluded that this type of issue come from WP Super cache which is not fully compatible with WordPress 4.6 and that’s why this problem occur. We hope that WP Super cache plugin will be updated it as soon as possible and that problem will be fixed. Notice that this issue appears and on Mobile Theme from Jetpack when the caching plugin is active.
Please notice that we have reported this issue to Jetpack and we are waiting for an update from them. Until that, you should use our workaround posted here -> https://github.com/Automattic/wp-super-cache/issues/132
Thanks for your understanding!
Well I am a customer like you not affiliated with Tagdiv, and I had the same question.
Here’s the lowdown:
https://www.themepunch.com/faq/purchase-code-registration-faqs/
The short of it: you can use the plugin without access to premium features such as downloading templates from the Revolution Slider site, or auto updates (you can update the plugin via uploading the plugin files that are included with each Newspaper update).
You will have to either use the limited sliders that come with the plugins, create your own, or upload the five or so in the demo_sliders folder from the Newspaper .zip file.
Hi @rida
Please make sure that you’re updating the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ also during the update process deactivate all plugins to make sure that there are no conflicts. Also check if the parameters from system status have the values specified here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi, I haven’t got any answer yet and there is an update available for the plugin.
Hello quangninhvn,
Unfortunately, our theme cannot provide custom work because we are a small theme which hard working to provide only the support from our items and we are working at new updates, bug fixing, and improvements and when the time is too short we cannot provide this types of services at the moment, sorry! I think that you understand us and if you want to hire somebody, we recommend the developers from https://studio.envato.com/
Thanks for your understanding!
