I’ve done the same too. The problems is that Google Console Search shows errors. It seems that for Google “updated” element is necessary. I assume you could not find this element in the source, right?
Could it be somehow related with the fact, that I turned off showing dates of publications on all pages?
Thanks!
Hello,
Chris was talking about this post: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/wordpress-4-4-1-pagination-new-fix/
you can either follow the method explained there or update your theme to the latest version.
Thank you!
Hello,
The best thing to do when updating your theme from version 4 is to delete your old theme and simply install the new one. Please make sure you do a back-up before. Then you need to run the update script as suggested here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Make sure you update the plugins as well. Some parts of your website will need to be recreated as elements became deprecated in visual composer so it will require a bit of work on your side.
Sorry for the inconvenience but this is the case when updating from newspaper 4. The new version of our theme was built from scratch so it will be like switching to a new theme (sort of, as we tried to keep compatibility between the 2 as much as possible)
Best of luck on your project!
Hello,
Also please make sure you update your theme to the latest version as there were some compatibility issues with WP 4.4 and 4.4.1 that were fixed.
Thank you!
Hello larceny,
The child theme helps you to keep the changes made by you for the future update but if your modified files are not changed by the theme in this update. Please notice that the style.css file is changed in every update and it is necessary to update your child theme that come bundled with our theme on every update to works well. If your files changed are different to files changed by the theme you have to replace only those files in the child theme.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hi
The plugin conflicts with our theme because of this line of code: http://screencast.com/t/6DlBqnYI9z By removing that line the plugin will work fine but the page mega menu won’t be displayed anymore. The mega menu page generated by the theme retrieve the content using this WordPress filter: 'the_content' and I suspect that the plugin does the same. In this situation the plugins implementation has to be changed such that its action to be applied only on the post content, not on the content from page mega menu. The problem with Newsmag theme is that MyEffecto apply its action to fast. The theme can control when a plugin acts only if have a rewrite rule. To write such a rule is necessary to study plugin’s implementation and update the code in order to make it compatible with the current theme.
I am not aware whit what themes did you test the plugin before but if those themes did not have a feature like mega menu or page mega menu, the plugin might have had a different behavior.
Our theme have many specific features which have a specific implementation in order to return the best result. However we cannot make the theme compatible with all plugins available out-there. Unfortunately the time doesn’t allow as to offer plugin implementation support. This is a task which involve custom work and falls beyond the support can offer you.
Also we’re aware of the piracy in our days and this is not realy a situation we can handle it. There is a big difference between using a pirated version and a premium version which allow you to have unlimited updates and support for differents bugs which may appear from a considerable number of reasons.
I am not saying that that the plugin’s author wrote the plugin in a wrong way. I am saying that the theme’s code and the plugin’s code must be updated such that one piece to be compatible whit the other. This situations happens because every author have its own way to code and it’s almost impossible to write a code for such a huge project, as Newsmag theme, and be compatible with any plugin written by a different author.
If you are unsatisfied with the theme we provided or it’s features, or the support, or if you need extra features for your project that our theme cannot provide, you can request a refund at evnato and we will agree with it.
Thanks!
Hi
Usually the page title displayed by search engines is stored in a meta property: http://screencast.com/t/nr41L347q – http://screencast.com/t/g216arch – http://screencast.com/t/ceEdcOSaa7 On our demo we use Yoast plugin to set this properties.
Also I’ve cheeked your site and noticed that the og:title is setup correct: http://screencast.com/t/J1AyaLNWi68J
I am not sure why that page appear with a wrong tile in google’s search result but this can also be a google’s issue. If you changed the page tile recently it will take a while until google will index your page again in order to update the new informations.
Thanks!
Hi
@paty0323 please note that is a public forum and any one can see the information posted here, so I removed your login details.
Make sure you did 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/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ update also the plugins that come with the theme files from the /plugins folder. If you’re using child theme deactivate it during the update process, switch to default wp theme.
During the update process deactivate all plugins, and after the update is complete enable them back one by one and cheek if the site’s functionality is affected or not by one of your plugins.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
I had version 6.6.3 where those problems should have been resolved. I’ve uppgraded to 6.6.4 now, but it won’t help this problem if I understood your release notes correctly.
Please doublecheck that your theme published “updated” element for google markup.
Thanks!
HI
This is a problem related with the last update of WordPress but we fix it in the last theme version. Try to update the theme at the curen version available on themeforest, V 2.3.5, https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ clear all caches and test again.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi
Please make sure that you installed the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ This seams to be a css issue so please check in browser console if there are any error related with css files. Usually should be a 403 or 404 error. Also you can try to log in via ftp and rename the plugins folder, just to make sure that the issue is not caused by a plugin. For more details about this step please check this link: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-wp-admin/
If the problem persist try to reinstall the theme following the steps indicated in our documentation, clear all caches, leave all plugins deactivated and test again.
If you still can’t manage to solve this issue please address us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin and ftp access and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.
Thanks!
Hello,
Please make sure you have the latest version of the theme as the google structure data errors were fixed. You can follow this guide to update your theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
Hello,
As i stated above, this method does not work 100% anymore as it will require further adjustments. It is not an official tutorial anymore as the theme was updated and the tutorial is deprecated. However, this represents custom work and needs adjustments. If you cannot do them, you will have to hire some help as we cannot offer any custom work at the moment.
Thank you!
Hi
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ve added it on our list and we will consider it for futures updates. However we have to chose carefully what features we will implement as we have over 250 features requests on our list and the users must receive what is best from us.
Thanks!
We’ve just updated our frontpage to use more feautures of Newspaper 6: http://feetsavior.com
Hi,
It seems like there some sort of bug when I try to set a custom border color in FAQ.
In FAQ I go to “Design Options” where you can set a custom color.
When I “Save changes” – and then update the page – nothing changes.
And when I go back to check what happened the custom color is gone – and the settings are back to default.
Tried many times now without any success. The “Border Style” also returns to default after it has been “saved”. But for some reason “Border radius” is actually saved.
Is this is a bug? I really can’t understand what I’m doing wrong as the process is so straight forward.
Kind regards
Lars
Hey, I was wondering what the best way to update my site from v4.6.3 to the latest.
I just tried jumping from 4 to 6 and there are tons of errors. Do I need to do incremental updates? like 4 to 5 to 6? If so where can I find those to download?
Thanks
If you have cleared and reset any caching plugin and didn’t help, then …
Your best bet is to do a clean install of the theme. Upload the theme via FTP (don’t use the pokey Envato updater), upload the updated plugins included with theme — then login and make sure you can login.
Make sure you have full backup before doing anything.
********You should login now and CHANGE your login/password as this is not a secure location, meaning anybody with forum access could login to your system right now.******
UPDATE – pushed to live server so the link is now http://staging2.bitesizepixel.com/high-resolution-free-images/
Please let me know if you can look into this and find out what is wrong. I checked with the support of VC and they said :
The issue is because there is an inbuilt version of Visual Composer (or the related code) present in your theme which is overriding the standalone plugin version and hence causing the issue. You will have to get rid of it. I would advise you to do so with the help of theme author, otherwise you might loose the extra elements added by him. Once this is done, you can install the standalone plugin and it will work fine. Kindly check.
Thank you, it works. Can you give me a tip, which files should I update? At second web, there is lot os custom functionality, and it is not possible to just update all files.
Thank you.

Hello Everyone
I am trying to make the following updates to my Website (not live yet) but cannot find the solution through the documentation/manual. Any help appreciated. Thanks
1) Change the text on the ‘Read more’ button.
2) Remove the magnifying glass icon / search facility
3) Change the color of the hyperlinks (which have been hand coded within a page).
4) Make certain menus non-clickable (the menus which have sub menus).
5) Change the content that appears AFTER a Contact form has been filled out.
Thanks again
Ok so you’re basically saying – its best to just get a list of files updated for each version and update all of those (assuming they are not the ones you customized, and at that point, you’ll need to update and then make the same changes) ??
In other words, the child theme – wouldn’t be that helpful in this situation?
What about after I make the file updates (assuming they aren’t the files customized by me). How do I get the theme to show that its of the proper update version – just so I can keep track of where I’m at?
Thanks!

Google search console shows error that updated element is missing in hentry markup data
