Hi Andrei,
I’m not really good at coding so could you provide a simpler explanation? Else, I’ll wait for your team’s update.
Thanks Catalin,
I deleted my old newspaper folder via FTP and I got it successfully updated using new theme file from my themeforest account. The issues regarding pagination on home page and an awkward alignment of logo on header got fixed already.
Still trying to figure out a way to get rid of the drop shadow. Re entered the code into custom code area but its of no effect.
Hi
This seams to be a css issue. Please make sure that 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 and test again
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi there,
with the update of Newsmag theme to versione 2.3.5, the modification indicated at the http://screencast.com/t/yOEz5TC7x to file Newsmag/includes/td_config.php doesn’t work anymore. Even if I’ve set the ‘show_child_cat’ to 10, theme still shows only 5 child categories as you can see at http://43b.60a.myftpupload.com/.
Hereafter my code modification:
...
td_api_block::add('td_block_mega_menu',
array(
'map_in_visual_composer' => false,
'file' => td_global::$get_template_directory . '/includes/shortcodes/td_block_mega_menu.php',
// key added to supply 'show_child_cat' differently for each theme
'render_atts' => array(
'show_child_cat' => 10,
)
)
);
...
How I can get again to show more than 5 default child categories in the top megamenù?
I’m using a Newsmag child theme and I’ve made only this max category number modification to my Newsmag-child/includes/td_config.php file.
Thanks in advance for any appreciated help.

Hi there,
the modifications you’ve indicated some time ago to the file Newsmag/includes/wp_booster/wp-admin/content-metaboxes/td_set_post_settings.php (as shown at http://screencast.com/t/YcimFCB4W) worked for me like a charm until the update of Newsmag theme to the Version 2.3.5. The purpose was and still is to hide the sidebar selection combo to every user but to administrator. Now, even if the suggested modification has been applied, it doesn’t work anymore and the sidebar selection combo is “dangerously” visible and selectable from everyone. This way one (author, editor, …) could remove a “vital” sidebar from the system! How can I get the correct behaviour?
I’m using a Newsmag Child theme with only this modification to my Newsmag-child/includes/wp_booster/wp-admin/content-metaboxes/td_set_post_settings.php
My site is at http://43b.60a.myftpupload.com/
Thanks in advance for any appreciated help.

any update this topic ?
Hello SAPeople,
Please check the author template from Theme panel->Template settings and try to reset it, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/te9pFBSGgtA This kind of issue appears because some modules were changed in new update or were renamed and displays this error.
Thank you for the message!
Hello salimnazer,
This kind of error appears because you try to rule the script and this is not available because you have already the Newspaper 6.3.2 and this script is available only if you have version 4 and you have to update to version 6.
Always make a full backup of your current installation – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and then do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ update also the plugins that come bundled with the theme files from the /plugins folder. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings.
The shortcodes have been changed so old ones will not work anymore. Please note that old files customization or custom CSS will not work with the new version and you will have to adjust or re-add them.
All your customization are recorded in the database which is not affected by this update.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message and thank you for purchasing our theme.
Hello pinnaclecompass,
Unfortunately, we have missed this but surely, in the future update, this issue will be resolved.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
Please update your theme to the latest version and no fix will be required anymore. The same applies to both themes as the issues with wp 4.4.1 were fixed in the latest updates. You can use this guide to do it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/
Thank you!

I am running into this error while trying to update the theme.
My theme is also giving some other issues at the moment (like the pagination on my home page doesnt work anymore)
How do I make a fresh installation of the updated theme Without loosing all the plugins, design and layout setup i currently have.
In addition I found a workaround. If I go into my media library and do a list view. when i refresh, the image that failed shows up but grayed out. if I then click regenerate thumbnails there and go back to grid view, the image shows up and I can then select it from my media library. I am sure you can understand why this is less then ideal when trying to do posts for a site that I update many times per day. I do think this is some sort of a bug in the template.
Hello Tagdiv,
After the update I’m getting a strange error in my blog http://www.getcooltricks.com . The pages are having a strange look without any styling. I think the Visual composer plugin is not working. The latest update works fine in my test site but not in the main site. I checked my site in my workplace and it worked fine. Please help me with this.

Might be something that changed with WP 4.2.2 — likely good to double check your php upload settings for your hosting account as this sometimes resets with a server update (meaning the max file size upload).
Try uploading from media manager vs from a post. That is “outside” the theme.
Make sure you have enough RAM allocated to WP, meaning at least 96MB vs default 40MB.
Make sure you’re not using a conflicting plugin, or something that tries to post the image to external location or something (e.g., CDN, Jetpack, etc.).
Hi,
I have just update from Newspaper 4.
Everything seems to work fine except for the plugin ShareThis.
After I have installed Newspaper 6 I don’t know why but it seems something is in front of the buttons and I can’t understand how to fix it. Can you help me?
Here’s an example: http://www.trabalhonaitalia.com/os-melhores-lugares-da-italia-onde-viver/
Thanks for your help,
Barbara
Hello, the latest update V 6.6.5 is missing thumbnails 150×150.
In the past, I had to use the fix from this post:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/block-21-posts-without-thumbnail/#post-91697
When the theme was updated last, the fix went away, so it’s still missing in the theme files. I added it again manually, but thought I’d let you know.
I removed the fix from my functions.php and everything works fine, so I reckon WordPress fixed the problem with fix #35344 (Strange pagination issue on front page after 4.4.1 update).
i add the fix, i make update to 4.4.2 and still same problem
look here

and try to go in second page
maybe is my cache ?
Hello Ablai,
Always make a full backup of your current installation – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and then do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ update also the plugins that come bundled with the theme files from the /plugins folder. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings.
Bottom line is that newspaper 6 is a whole new theme built from scratch.
Unfortunately, you will have to clear your agenda and spare a bit of time to adjust all your settings to the new version of the theme.
If you have already Newspaper 6 and you want only to do the update to latest version, you should make this without any problem. All your customization are recorded in the database which is not affected by this update.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hello hamiig,
I have checked your website and saw that you are using an old version of Newspaper 6.5.1. Please try to update to the latest version because this kind of issue was resolved in the latest updates. This kind of issue was created by the latest version of WordPress 4.4.1. Please try to update your theme in according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and also, please update and the Visual Composer like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Please do a backup for your additional customization before the update. For more information about backup, please check this -> https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hello Pawares,
The Envato toolkit sometimes creates issues (not only with our theme) so please follow this tutorial to update your theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ We usually recommend FTP as it’s the safest method of the update since it does not depend on additional software.
I have checked you website and I noticed that you do not use background-image for the entire site like this http://screencast.com/t/YJshdLEz8 and you are using background-color only for some category. This post http://www.aseanvibe.com/supernap-international-to-build-supernap-thailand-the-first-tier-iv-gold-data-center-in-asia/ does not have the background-image because it category is BUSINESS and this does not have the background image set it.
This post http://www.aseanvibe.com/banks-urged-to-adopt-new-approach-to-meet-todays-changing-security-landscape/ have the background-image because this post is part of FINANCIAL category wich has background image set it from Theme panel – http://screencast.com/t/XCL6GPd8S
So, if you want to have background-image for all your posts, you have to set the background-image to be general, for the entire site.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hello Vishal,
Unfortunately the theme does not have such an option. We have lots of requests for the infinite scroll option but unfortunately it’s not so easy to accomplish. There are many implications in adding such a feature. This being the case, we cannot provide a quick solution for it at the moment. We have this request on our list of updates and in a future version we hope we can implement such a feature. Untill then you can maybe find a plugin that has this option.
Thank you for your understanding.
Hello,
Unfortunately we cannot inspect your website: http://screencast.com/t/c0D07bsK
Please make sure you disable all plugins except visual composer and clear your cache. The update should not affect your grid or images. if you updated from newspaper 4, then you will need to run the update script as this guide shows: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
Hello salimnazer,
Please try to clear your cache in order to achieve the best result and try it again. Also, I saw that you use an older version of our theme and we recommend to do an update for the latest version. Before doing an update, please do a backup for your all customizations.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
How do you exactly update the theme?
DO you have to reinstall the theme? or?
