Hello,
I understand the problem now. Speedbooster has no settings. It’s either active or disabled. The plugin works in such a way that it moves the css code to the bottom of the page so the main one will be loaded first and then the modification. When CSS colors are changed, this is a side-effect of this procedure. The easiest way to keep speedbooster active and also have the colors apply instant, you have to apply the color you want to set in the style.css file. That way it will be the first option to load, not the second.

We hope in a future update we will be able to fix this issue.
Thank you!
Hi, Andrei
Thanks for the solution, it worked perfectly.
I really like the customization capabilities of Newsmag 😉
On that note, now my block 13 displays the category tag, date and post views. The category tag is black by default (for all the modules/blocks).
1. Is there a way to customize the color of the category tag?
2. How about to color-code the categories, I have only 3 categories and displaying them in different colors would look really awesome? Is that possible?
3. What will happen to all of the changes to code( that I’ve applied so far) when I update the theme?
What can I do to make sure I don’t loose any of my current modifications and yet update the theme?
About the Social Share buttons: They are beautifully designed and work perfectly (the visual) with any of the post templates. It would make an awesome feature to be able to fit them in the details of each post, on at least some of the modules. Please put that in the ‘Future updates Wishlist’ 🙂 I am sure many customers will appreciate that!
Hi,
Unfortunately all the custom modifications to the theme files will be overwritten when you update the theme. You will have to re-add all the modifications.
Thanks!
Hi
Thanks for the suggestion, I’ve added it on our list and we will consider it for the next theme updates. We will be very grateful if you could send us a link with google policy in this regard.
Thanks!
so i got an email from envato (oct 11) saying that i should update my visual composer plug-in to 4.7.4… my current plug-in settings show it’s 4.7.1.1 … they gave me instructions (which are pretty inconveniencing on how to do this, since i’m more for automation), but what i don’t get is the link they sent, which takes me to http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431 … i can’t download the update there unless i get the plug-in for $34. i just purchasd the newspaper theme less than a month ago and i understand that all updates to plug-ins are included here.

Visual Composer Plugin Update Steps
Log in to codecanyon.net and proceed to download the latest version of Visual Composer to your computer from this URL: http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431
Locate and unzip the downloaded plugin file.
Connect to your server using an FTP client and upload the js_composer directory (from the downloaded zip file) to the wp-content/plugins/ directory. (Note: This will overwrite the old Visual Composer files with the secure versions.)
Log into WordPress and navigate to the Plugins page to confirm the Visual Composer plugin is version 4.7.4
The link to the latest version, provided above, will be live for 3 weeks from the time this email was sent. After this period, you will need to access the latest version via your theme zip file.
Please note: This replaces the existing plugin under the licensing of the theme(s) you’ve purchased and is only licensed for use in these themes.

sidenote: i have a themeforest account and not a code canyon.
Hi
I’m having the same problem. I already did and update all the settings but it still won’t save the custom sidebar. only the default are saved.
Hi,
I have added this on our list and we will change it in a future update, to get the client date instead of server date.
Thanks!
Hi, thank you, this solution we have done alredy, but that means with each update we have to do this again and again, however i can live with it:) but you could put it on to next update.. i guess we all runing adsence and its seem to be necessery to avoind ban:)
Hi,
Please regenerate your thumbnails – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/ it should fix this issue.
This was a major update as the Newspaper 6 is practically a new theme, all the code was rewritten. You should not have now any issues with the new versions of the theme, we will just add new features, some fixes that should not create any issues. It will not be any major changes to the theme code in the near future.
Thanks!
Hello Ivan,
As a quick solution to your problem, you can comment out this section in the speedbooster file http://screencast.com/t/RZLIOPUNdqh to override the plugin compatibility.
We hope in a future update we will be able to implement more plugins in the compatibility function.
Thank you!
Hi
The theme wasn’t designed to display videos in thumbs, just set the first frame as featured image if the user doesn’t chose a different image. Changing this functionality it’s a complex task and require lots of customizations in theme’s core files.
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 for the message!
Hello,
After I updated Newspaper theme to ver 6.5 from 4.x – My slider images are not correctly sized.
Check the front page: http://xsiden.com/
How can I fix that? What could be the reason for this? I runned the update script.
I’m also worried about future updates. Will new updates lead to a lot of small fixes on the site?
When will this plugin be compatibile with Rev slider 5? Currently I can’t enable it so I am interested when you will update the plugin. If you do not plan on updating maybe I should just downgrade the slider?
Regards,
Ivan
Hello Pandian,
Please make sure you update your theme to the latest version and also update visual composer. (It comes with the theme) https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/. The old accordion element is deprecated and you need to use the new accordion that comes with the latest version of visual composer. Unfortunately you will have to recreate your FAQ section.
As for the repeating posts, i could not see them repeating. It is random as you said, but a theme update could fix that as well. Just make sure the blocks are set to display latest posts not random ones.
Let me know how it goes!
Best of luck!
i have figure it out this way as temp solution
//add bottom ad
if (td_util::is_ad_spot_enabled(‘content_bottom’) and is_single()) {
$content = $content . “<div><small>Reklama</div></small>”;
$content = $content . td_global_blocks::get_instance(‘td_block_ad_box’)->render(array(‘spot_id’ => ‘content_bottom’));
}
however after each update it will be deleted.. is there any hook from child thene to call this?
cheers

Hello,
Please make sure you install the visual composer plugin that comes with the theme: http://screencast.com/t/74bsUYY7xX And make sure you use the latest theme version.
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
If this is the case, then try to disable all other plugins except visual composer and check the error again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Update!
I somehow fix this problem myself.
It turns out that my settings in WP Total Cache plugin that caused this problem.
If you’re using WP Total Cache and having this kind of problem. Kindly follow this steps:
Option #1
1. Go to your general settings in WP Total Cache
2. Set Minify setting to Manual
3. Then go to the Minify tab (on the left panel)
4. Disable CSS minify (Make sure the box for “Enable” in unticked)
———–
Option #2
1. Go to your general settings in WP Total Cache
2. Disable Minify
———–
Option #3
Deactivete WP Total Cache and just install/use WP Super Cache as recommended by tagdiv
Do any of the 3 options above can solve all the problems I stated above.
I use WP Total Cache for a few years now, and I’m kinda accustom to the plugin, that’s why I’m not planning to change it to WP Super Cache.
Hope this helps.
CASE SOLVED.
Hello Ben,
You can update the theme and not worry about your content getting deleted. Your pages/posts are stored in the database and the update does not affect that. Just make sure to update your theme by following this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and make sure you do a back-up before.
Thank you!
Thank you.
any idea how much i should pay for that?
Also, will it be of any problem for all theme, wp, plugins update?
Thanks a lot.
Hi there,
I’m new and I want to update the theme but I’m scared like crazy that the content I’ve created with visual composer on the newspaper theme will be gone or somehow messed up if I delete the theme and then install the updated version.
Could someone give me some peace of mind and let me know if I would run into any troubles?
Thank you very much
Hi
The function which generate the pagination on pages is located in td_page_generator.php http://screencast.com/t/oWAGJO89 and it’s requires a lot of customizations to achieve that functionality. You can give it a try if you like but this is a complex task which requires good coding skills and lots of customizations. 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
Seams to be css problem, on block 1 appear some wrong classes: http://screencast.com/t/skVlyLmQm Please make sure you updated the theme according with our documentation, also the Visual Composer plugin must be installed from the same path: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ Also clear all caches, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and test again.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi,
@ThryveWell – To center the modules from block 13 you could use the following css (add it in Theme Panel -> Custom CSS) – http://screencast.com/t/kMQqfeewboWG
.td-pb-span12 .td_block_13 > .td_block_inner > .td_module_14 {
display: inline-block;
}
.td-pb-span12 .td_block_13 > .td_block_inner {
text-align: center;
}Not sure what link did you wanted us to see, please use the direct demo link and resend it – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/
Block 13 wasn’t designed to work on full width (no sidebar), we have it on our list for the future updates, our initial thought was that the images are too large on 3 columns and the UX is not good.
The theme wasn’t designed to work on full screen, sorry about this, if you cannot use it for your project please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com , include a link to this discussion and we will provide a solution.
Thank you!
