Hello,
If you update from version 4 to 6, then all customization will be lost.
Newspaper 6 is a whole new theme so an update from 4 to 6 may cause the same issues as switching to another theme (but we did try to maintain compatibility where ever possible).
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 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.
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.
We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Hope this helps!
Thank you!
However, I no longer have the issue with Javascript and Modernizr (with the theme update)
I tried to update my theme… It’s a disaster…
Everything has change… I can’t let this new theme. It give me too much time to put in place the same options and layouts than the previous version.
I will try to disable the plugin one by one to find the issue
Hi,
The theme use the default wordpress registration that’s why appeared this issue after wordpress update and the function is deprecated.
Please add change this code – http://screencast.com/t/i4C94cvIAr with this – http://pastebin.com/tp9t4yRp
We will fix this in the next theme version.
Thanks!
Hello,
There is no setting to increase site width. Our theme works with a grid layout and increasing the width of the site will impact the blocks and other elements on your website creating undesired effects. It can be done with CSS but that means you have to style all the elements to fit the new wider layout.
(The mobile version of the site is already at full width: http://screencast.com/t/HGrc026b)
We hope in a future update we can implement a setting for width to our theme.
Thank you!
Hi derdiedasjp,
For what you want to achieve it is necessary more customization, custom work. Using only Css style is not a good way because you alter the quality images. It’s about aspect ratio and all of the images have an specific aspect ratio. If you modify, there not looking good. For more details about aspect ratio please consult our documentation (bottom of page) here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
Unfortunately we cannot offer custom work as we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support. You can always get a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.
Thanks.
Hi,
I am trying to change the fonts (from default to robot condensed) on my website (which is still under construction). We recently updated to Newspaper 6.5 and now the fonts section in the theme panel does not even open any more (whereas on Newspaper 6.2 I could access the fonts settings, but the fonts did not follow the change on the page).
The next question then would be how to change the size of the fonts for headlines, menu, etc.
I am a wp-beginner and not experienced with CSS, so a step-by-step guide would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you very much for your help
Hello,
This is the default behavior when you set you block this way. After the 10 post limit you set, the other posts will display random which includes the ones already shown. The filter does not detect which post is shown previously so these situations can occur. Unfortunately for the random sort order there is no solution for double posts. This is on our list of improvements and in a future update we hope we will be able to implement an option to make these random posts unique.
As an alternative you can sort your posts in a different way or use pagination so doubled posts will not be as obvious.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi Alin, thanks for the reply,
In fact I’d like to update the theme, but do you think this could change the entire layout of my pages?
Thanks.
Hello there!
Wonderful theme, working like a charm up to now!!
I have 2 questions/issues though, that i need your guidance to fix!
1) Social Counter is not updating for some reason.
Plugin Version 2.1
Theme Version 4.2
WP Version 3.9.2
It was working fine up to a certain point where it stropped updating, when i went to change the ID (e.g Facebook) to test it, it shows “0” likes (therefor putting back the previous Facebook id shows “0” again)
How can I fix this??
2) Updating WP, Theme and Plugins
Theme Version 4.2
WP Version 3.9.2
Many plugins need to be updated too. The issue is that we have made it multi-site and we have done quite a lot of modifications. As the client is a newspaper portal you understand it is very risky and we can just go down for couple of days. So my question is, if we just go into maintenance for couple of hours and update theme and plugin (maybe WP too) will we lose anything? Is the latest update changing anything that might affect our update and lose anything? Is there anyway you can advice to apply the updates with the minimum risk of losing anything modified?
Thank you very much in advance!!!
Hi,
I have checked your site and block 1 looks fine – http://screencast.com/t/MuXpxOrS
Did you managed to solve this?
Also I see that you use the old version of the theme and the latest version of Visual Composer. I suggest to update also the theme to the latest version 6.5.1 as using VC 4.7.4 with Newspaper 4 could create issues.
Follow this guide if you want to update – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!
Hi,
This is also on our list for a future update of the theme. Unfortunately I cannot provide a quick solution for this but you can take a look in the javascript file if you want to modify it or get someone to help you if you need this – http://screencast.com/t/41uiAXNi5Fw
Thanks!
Hi,
I see that you use an old version of the theme, so may have issues with some plugins that may cause issues. Maybe you have updated some plugins, wordpress..
Did you tried Bogdan’s suggestion?
I also suggest to upgrade the theme and the theme’s plugins to the latest version – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!

VC is on 4.8.1 right now with a big security fix that was in 4.7.4. When and how can I get this update?
likely somebody trying to access your theme folder directly which nobody should ever do unless trying to hack you; and sometimes you will see this from doing install or update to theme where temporarily while files are being moved around if Google pings your site they would end up following a temp redirect. You will then see this as a “one time” thing. Simply mark as fixed, and move on 🙂
Hello,
I have updated my theme from v6.2 to v6.5 using the patch files provided.

First i moved from v6.2 to v6.3
then from v6.3 to 6.3.3
then v6.3.3 to 6.4
and finally i moved to v6.4 to v6.5
After that when i opened the admin panel, all other things are working fine, but the theme panel is showing empty area and no options are coming. Please let me know how to resolve it.

Hey,
I have purchased Newspaper theme from Evanto marketplace, Installed WordPress Toolkit Downloaded from Github, Updated theme by generating API from Evanto Setting.
I am now sure why but I am able to see so many errors.Solution ?
(I have edited your post and placed your error log in Pastebin. Please use this method when uploading large content to the forum. Thank you, Bogdan.)
Thanks for your response.
I updated the theme using Envato Toolkit so I didn’t see that there was a plugin version bundled with the theme.
I have now downloaded the file and uploaded it to my plugins section and I’m pleased to say it works!
Dear Bog..
Hope you are doing good. I have updated the theme the duplicate problem still persists,accordian i will recreate and let you know. Where can i see all the feature addition in the current update? After the update the speed of our have increased thanks a bunch for all hard work cheers!!

Happy friday:)

Catalin,
Thanks for that link. I do believe those changes will be removed once I update the theme though, is that the correct assumption?
I am using a child theme and the td_api_plugin features for custom modules/blocks/headers/footers but was unable to find any documentation on using the API to add custom ads. Is there currently a way to do this through the API? Thanks!! 🙂
Hi cbur2107,
I’ve checked your site and you are using an older version of Visual Compser plugin (4.5.2) http://screencast.com/t/xZuFfmjaB
Please upgrade the plugin to ultimate version like this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ . If the problem persist, you can check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer, clear cache and see if you still have this issue.
Let us known how it goes!
Thanks.
Hi,
If the problem is still there, it can be caused by the page speed. CSS loads in cascades by default so if the load speed is realy slow you will see every step of the cascading styles. You can try to improve the pagespeed by following this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
You can also check to see if a plugin does not slow down your website, or you can check your server configuration.
The best way to eliminate this effect is still to use the style.css and create a back-up of it so it will not be lost in an update.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Many thanks for the quick response. I have updated the theme and Visual Compose and it all works perfectly.
Thanks once again.
