After upgrading to Newsmag 4.2 Gallery crashed and images, already deactivate all plugins the error still happen.

Hi, Thank you for the guides. I have done as instructed above. but there is something still weird. I just faced the same issue today. the slider won’t show on the page. then i tried to uninstall and install the new update plugin then import the slider. yet it wont appear. then i bulk deactivated plugins. (not all in once) and i activated it all again. and no problem again. if i am not wrong.. these plugins are in possibility of the issue :
wp-supercache, jetpack, yoast seo. i am not sure which one. because after the last set of deactivation of the plugins till the slider become normal is those 3 plugins.. I will update again if this issue happen again in future. may be i will try to deactivate the plugins one by one.
Thanks again.
Okay, then that will be fine with me. The only issue I have is just like buying something as a laptop from a store or anything you buy that should last a great while. Should be as that. If I plan to use this theme for at least many years, then it should be that way with updates.
@stuartmasson I agree with what your saying and hope this is correct and Tagdiv is not going to force us out of this forum for that new policy. I think this is great the way we have it now, and would be a shame to just leave because I can’t get what I paid for or limited to only bits and pieces of the new updates.
So I will go with what you are saying and continue to come and help others on this forum, but hope I am not going to get the “You did not pay for extended support, Goodbye!” That will be a big turn off and I think you will understand that too.
From what I can see on the Envato website, it says 6 months of support from the author. Version updates should be available beyond six months, and I imagine that you will still be able to post issues to this forum beyond six months.
I assume that it’s an attempt to impose a uniform minimum standard on developers to directly support their themes, but that individual developers will be able to guarantee longer support periods if they want to. I also assume that it’s aimed at direct one-on-one support rather than a forum environment like this one.
6 months my site will be probably off this support or new theme, depending on the getting updates anymore. So I am just saying for those who saw my site in here listed might be a totally different theme after 6 months. It depends on if I lose my updates due to the new Item Support. I know for sure I wont be posting on this forum anymore, because I more likely am not going to have the money for the support charge. I might not be posting much now because of this new policy. I am not trying to spam the forums, but I think this is like a push away certain customers that don’t fork over money or get rid of the poor people and welcome the rich to pay.
Yes, I admit I am poor and I can’t afford stuff, but this is more about money than it is about solid customers. This is my first theme and last theme. Good luck with the new Item Support everyone.

Hi Tinobreg,
We ask you to do a clean install of the theme, you have already some notices from a plugin that you use – http://screencast.com/t/LmCd4Xu0
Also do you use this version of the theme on all your sites? This is a very old version and some plugins updates may not work and also could cause issues.
Unfortunately we cannot provide a solution for this(we cannot figure out what cause this) if you have custom modifications and also use plugins that may cause this issue and we did not get any similar reports, sorry!
Thanks!
I guess its just version updates that we get and that is not including new features, functionality, and design updates. It is just bugs and fixes, but they still have as were paying for the updates and bug fixes in the Item Support. So they are all screwed up with what they are saying. I guess since they can’t figure it out and word it correctly that I will still end up moving on away from Envato.
If I lose the updates I am gone. Poof and goodbye and good riddance.

I am in Envato support and Andrew is saying we get all the version updates, but the wording in Item Support says otherwise. I am trying to get him to change the wording so no one else is going to spend hours trying to understand why we have to pay for updates when we don’t.
Hi,
@Junior you have to update also the child theme to the version 6, anyway the old customization(version 4) will not work in the new version. Also you can use Theme Panel > Custom Css so you will not lose css customization.
Newspaper 6 should be regarded as a new theme, the code was rewritten and also the child theme is more complete now(from 6.3 version) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks!

You know this is going to cause more nulling to themes now. Who is going to do the continued pay for every 6 six months? In the long run people are going to end up costing as much as paying for a developer. So it would end up people using a developer instead of buying themes of Envato. So looks like when my 6 months is up I am moving on to something else. This is BS to me.
I know it says extend for 12 months, but still for someone that has no income and actually paid for theme already, this means I get a broken theme after 6 months with no updates to it. So what the point of the full price for a theme if you get to be forced a support price after and not usage except to be stuck with same version of the theme and no more updates at all unless you pay.
I am not the only one that is going to hate this move from Envato. Consider me on strike when this 6 months of mine is up.
I use the Envato toolkit. The update process was really simple I just can’t remember seeing a popup or any other notification inside of WordPress saying that there is an update available.
You still have to update theme even after activation. There is no auto update, but I think the envato toolkit has an auto update feature. If that is what you using, then it should of auto updated. I am not always right, but that is from what I have noticed or done.
I don’t like the envato plugin, because I like to have the files and folder offline, just in case I need them.

1. I’d like to change the background color on the sidebar titles not the actual background of the sidebar. So right now the text is white and the background is black. I’d like the text to be white and the background #8bc34a
2. I didn’t have Big Grid 2-7 before. I updated the theme and now i’ve got them. Thanks! (I thought auto-update was on for my theme)
Hi Support!
First, here is my Configuration for better explaining:
Theme NewsPaper, User PRO Plugin
In WordPress I set following: Comments Enabled just for LoggedIn Users
So now my scenario: As I have disabled Comments for unregistered Users I ran into the Trouble cause the Login of my Website is handled sitewide by User Pro (here I have a redirection to my own Login/Registering Page which is for Login/Registering via WordPress itself and the Inbuilt UserPro Social Login).
Here I have a now Troubles because the NewspaperTheme has it´s own function by opening a Modal Window for Login. But I need the original Code way from WordPress where normally I would get to the WordPress Login Page (wp-login.php) …in other words the inbuilt function from WordPress so that my UserPro Plugin is able to set the redirection to my Login Page so that my Users are able to Login in with their Social Accounts.
How can this be done? This is really urgent!
And here is my suggestion for one of the next Updates of thhis perfect Theme:
##.) To have the possible to enable/disable the Modal Login in Theme Settings
By the Way – further Suggestions for enhance the Newspaper Theme:
a.) Nav Menu roles Plugin
I use at my site the Nav Menu Roles to manage the the Menu to hide different Menu Items like: Login / Register (when the User is already LoggedIn) or Log out when the User has not been registered or LoggedIn at my site. A function like this would be a great enhancement within the Newspaper Theme!
b.) WP Live Comments Validation
Thes WP Live Comments Validation works at my site to prevent the User to see a blank page if he don´t fill out the Cooments Form successfully. Here I suggest to have a Function like this in one of the next Newspaper Updates.
But my first Question have priority an I hope you can help me to resolve this Issue with the Modal Login in WordPress Comments. I described my problems a well as I could do so that you understand me. Sorry, my native Language is German 😉
Thank´s for your reply
With best Regards, Karl
Thanks for prompt reply. I think you should change this in your next update.
Unfortunately I spoke too soon. I have updated to the latest version of Newspaper and have the exact same problem when trying to load the Health and Fitness demo materials. I have contacted you by email but have had no reply. This is most frustrating!
hi guys
I have updated to version 6 and regenerated all my thumbnails.
I have a strange issue I would like to solve…
On my menu bar, if I select any category I can see my grid, followed by a list of posts with thumbs:
http://connecteddigitalworld.com/category/tech-2/
however, if I select the Reviews one, I get the grid but the list of posts doesn’t have any thumbs:
http://connecteddigitalworld.com/category/reviews/
Any ideas how I can fix this?
thanks
Andrew
Hi
The theme wasn’t tested with upsell products, but I’ve added this on our list and we will fix it in the next update. Until then you can use this custom css in theme panel > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/5U9N0k3qnn
.woocommerce-page .upsells .products li:last-child {
margin-right: 0px !important;
}
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please follow this guide to upgrade to the version 6 of the theme – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ Make 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. Then update also the theme plugins: Visual Composer (also optional plugins Social Counter, Speed Booster if you use them). You will have to run the script that will import from database your settings, will change the shortcodes(see docs)…
Please note that Newspaper 6 is practically a new theme, so if you have old custom modifications to the files or custom css will not work, you will have to adjust and re-add them. Unfortunately you have to re-add the widgets to your sidebars(the custom sidebars will be imported – you don’t have to create them again) as they will become inactive or doesn’t exist in version 6.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
You should also update the theme’s plugins, you can do this also from panel, just deactivate and delete the plugin(Visual Composer/Social Counter) – http://screencast.com/t/NQoTDtaOp0 and install it from here – http://screencast.com/t/3LIxhAVgEy
Thanks!

Hi
@GideonLupine please check this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/registrationlogin-modal-captcha/ Lucian posted a solution there.
@doucare1971 this is on our feature request list, but we must find the right design for each header style. Implementing this feature may take some time because it requires testing across browsers, operating systems and mobile devices. We have this in our consideration for future theme updates.
Thanks!

Perhaps I need to update the composer files? I haven’t done this since initial theme installation back in July 17th.
Can I simply just download the files and rewrite them in the plugins folder via ftp? I noticed the composer files have edit dates of July 30th so most likely cause of my issue.
Hi,
The updates are provided by us via the theme package, we try to deliver the latest versions with each update. The plugins are located in the ../Newspaper-tf/plugins folder – http://screencast.com/t/2Ri75hQV
In the case of Revolution Slider you have to
1. export your current sliders before you update
2. delete the current plugin and install the latest version
3. import the sliders saved on point one
For more details please check their official documentation – http://www.themepunch.com/faq/update-plugin-packaged-theme/
Revolution Slider and Visual Composer come with bulk license, this means that the plugins can only be distributed with the theme and only we can provide updates for them. You cannot update them directly from their developer.
Thank you!

Earlier today I moved a block on my Homepage and decided it’s position wasn’t what I wanted and went to move it back and now for some reason I am only able to move the first 2 blocks on the homepage page builder. I can’t see or access the other 10+ blocks. For some reason when I love the edit page the top left icon in the page builder keeps loading. The icon that links to wpbakery.
I am able to add more blocks, but I can’t see them to edit them.
For some reason the window just doesn’t want to expand the height for all the other blocks to display.
Emil,
The problem is still. I’m testing with iPhone 5, 5s, 6. In iPhone 6+ we couldn’t replicate this error.
I ask you please to do testing on http://blog.tsevillano.com/
On the other hand, we can not update the version of the theme, and we have many changes on it. We need to try and fix it on the 3.8.1 version.
Thanks you!
Kind regards,
