Hello skmg,
Unfortunately, please notice that JW Player plugin is not tested with our theme and we have no idea about the theme behaviour with this type of plugin, sorry -> maybe it works well with the theme!
Unfortunately, our theme has not been designed to support as feature video from Facebook, only from YouTube, Vimeo and Dailymotion sorry! You can do this only through some plugins with this functionality or you can try to implement this function in our theme if you want. Please notice that is not a simple task and require to know solid knowledge about hard coding ->PHP/JS/HTML/CSS. If you want to display more levels in our theme and you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to do this for you because we cannot provide custom services at the moment, sorry!
I have added your suggestion to our list of improvements, we will consider this but we cannot say for sure that it will be implemented in next update because we have a big list of fixes and other new improvements to achieve that are more important and also these things are decided by our developers.
Thank your for your understanding!
Hi Bogdan! The implementation for BrightCove worked – my developer hardcoded it with the aid of your screenshots. One question: Is it possible to do this somehow in the child theme so that I may update the theme easily without worrying about it breaking… or having the need to copy/paste the code with every update?
Thank you very much!
Hi,
You can update your social counter plugin as there were several styles added to it and the old version will not work anymore with newspaper 7. Please disable and delete the plugin files from the plugins section and then install it again from here: http://screencast.com/t/Zfv3tFwkyQe
Thank you!
Hi,
The description was not meant to be displayed on the author box itself, but only when a user is clicked. This is the default behavior of the theme, and if you click on the author, the description is there.
That was a customization you made based on my first reply on the top of this topic. That class was added custom, so maybe you replaced the file when you updated the theme and your customization is gone. You have to do it again.
Thank you!
Hello
I noticed that on the new update, that the color of the bar of the Quote are no more the same as my theme (purpleà but your blue.

Could you correct these on the next update please?

Newspaper made available an updated version of its theme last Friday and since then, Social media no longer block no longer appears on the site even though it reflects in the back end. What can I do?
Hello jauburn,
Please check our documentation and please notice that we recommend doing your update only via FTP because this is the surest method in this regard. Also, please update all your plugins via FTP for better results. You can check this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-i-manage-to-update-from-version-6-x-x-to-newspaper-7-0-without-a-problem/#post-111643 because it could be more useful for you.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi
I’m using child theme and everything works well, except header.php is not working in child theme. Every theme update i have to edit header in Newsmag theme
Any idea?
Thank you
Hello BrPortais,
Please notice that all your additional customizations through the code of your main theme, to next update the code will be overwritten and also, you will lose your customizations. If you want to avoid this case, you should use the child theme, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello stavrosgian,
The latest version of WordPress (4.5.x) ‘broke’ the Visual Composer and now it is necessary to update the plugin to the latest version of it, namely 4.11.2. Also, please notice that you cannot use a newer version of WordPress with an older version of Newspaper and Visual Composer because it will appear a lot of issues through it. So, please try to update your theme to the latest version (Newspaper 7.0.1), update your Visual Composer to the latest version 4.11.2, Social Counter to 4.0, clear all your caches and test it again.
Thank you for your understanding!
I first thought I was a bug with the mobile plugin in version 7, but apparently others are actually seeing their menus using the mobile plugin. No matter what I do menus do not show up. I’ve tried enabling the standard Main menu in the mobile settings, created a new Mobile Top menu and nothing works. No matter what, Menues (both top and footer) won’t show up. Also login is not showing even if it has been enabled in settings. any idea to why?
I updated using the using the Envato Toolkit on my localhost version of the site and then used subversion to mirror changes to the server production site.
Hi, I used facebook comments by Alex Mos. the version 7 of Newspaper theme has mobile plugin.. after the update.. my facebook comment is missing. how can i insert the shortcode of facebook comment to appear in the new mobile theme of newspaper? thanks
Hi,
@ShibumiOz, support has not “crawled into the woodwork” as we are busier than ever with lots of questions coming our way due to the new update. We asked you to send us an email so we can inspect your issues. You already received an email 1 hour ago. (mind the support hours and the time zone)
Thank you!
Hi,
The issue was already resolved if you access your site now you will see the problem is gone. That is a caching issue as when you updated the theme, you still had the old version cached. Now it seems to have cleared.
Thanks.
Hi,
We have a plugins section in the theme panel, so if a plugin is updated it will be bundled with the theme and it can be installed from here: http://screencast.com/t/6TzYrQeNE3. You just need to disable and delete your current version of the plugin and then install it again from the panel.
Thank you!
Update to Newspaper 7 – Screen freezes here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/6qy9ljwz4zoz9tu/Screenshot%202016-05-13%2009.04.45.png?dl=0
Hi,
We looked into this matter.
The solution cannot be provided by us as the issue comes from the plugin itself. We will have to either wait for an update from the author or downgrade as Bintmusic has.
Thanks.
Hi
@izzuwanadnan we apologize for late reply but we answer from oldest topics to newest. Also there is the time zone which must be taken into consideration. We’re on GMT +2 here.
I’ve checked your site and found a js error in browser’s console: http://screencast.com/t/bx8DThohPr I am not sure if this error breaks Visual Composer but there is a chance to be affected. It seems that all VC’s shortcode is rendered as plain text, not as shortcode, that’s why page’s content is not displayed.
Make sure you updated the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test again.
@geospatialmedia You can ignore the activation message as Visual Composer plugin comes bundled with the theme and you don’t need a license key for it.
Thanks!
Hi,
Try to switch to the main theme as the child theme has a style.css that has not been updated. The files in the child theme especially style.css need to be replaced on every update as it;s a file that gets modified every time. A child theme is not update proof. Please re-create your child theme with the current version of the files and re-add your modification on the new files.
Thank you!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and noticed that you’re using an older version of the theme. Please update the theme at v 2.3.7 which is available on themeforest and also update Social Counter plugin at V 3.2 which is included in theme’s path, clear all caches then test again. Here you can find our update documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial/
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hello svharishtech,
I have checked your website and I saw the problems with the search icon. Indeed, it is a mini-bug in our theme and we will fix in near future update. Until this, please try to use a bit of CSS code to fix it. Try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.
The code is ->
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-main-menu-logo img {
max-width: 70%
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/DltuwgdzDc
Thank you for your message!
Hello RachelG,
I feel sorry for this moment, maybe my explanation was not understood correctly. So, if you have some custom modifications in your child theme, in the future, you must be careful that if something does not work as properly with your child theme, probably the classes or some code were changed in the latest update and you will have to “UPDATE” you child theme with the actual classes or right code to work as expected. I hope that you have understood my explanation. Please notice that this thing is not necessary doing for each update only if problems arise due your child theme customizations.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
Every thing is ok now after I followed these instructions https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
However, the plugin now asks for a key. The plugin functionality is now full fledged, unlike the one that comes with the theme by default when installed.
Regards,
Harsha
Working for me just fine.
Sounds like you have some issues with your setup.
Useful to disable all plugins, update theme, update plugins, and only use visual composer to tesr update. Skip using child theme.
Dont use anything that modifies code like wordfence or cloudflare unless you know what youre doing. Avoid jetpack.
Connection issues usually mean your server setup not optimized, or you are trying to connect to offline sources like jetpack stuff which crashes all the time.
I dont work here, just some feedback that it does work. But visual composer is a little wonky in its setup and updates. Often deleting the jscomposer folder completely only way to upgrade the damn thing.
