Just a quick update on this. I decided to opt for Header Style 12, instead.
One question: What is the CSS class for the background color of the menu’s ‘hover effect’ on Header Style 12?
Can’t seem to locate it.
Hi,
I also checked your site and now your image are displayed fine on mobiles, unfortunately we did not make any test with WP Retina so I cannot make any suggestions.
We know about this issue with smooth scroll, it will be fixed in the next update. Sorry for inconvenience!
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately you will need to re-add this change as the file will be overwritten when you will update the theme. I just said above that in version 6.3 the child theme will support single template files – https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Thanks!
No Update? 😉
I’ve checked many sites on this forum and so far none of them have smooth scrolling!
After update from 4 to 6 Newspaper I have no sidebar displayed on main & posts pages.
gardenersite.com
From Google support forum telling us that there is a problem here -> https://productforums.google.com/forum/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer#!msg/webmasters/sSEyv–7kkw/muCKI1CiqWEJ
In this line ->
<time itemprop=”dateCreated” class=”entry-date updated td-module-date” datetime=”2015-06-30T11:24:30+00:00″ >30 giugno 2015</time>
What should I change?
Hi there
I just updated to the newest theme version from 6.0. Since then I have a LATEST drop down menu widget appearing at the top of my category sidebars, which I don’t want.
I have created a new sidebar and it still appears.
See: http://wellnessatwork.com.au/category/training-coaching/
Can you please tell me know to switch this off?
Thanks
Yes, when you move to a NEW theme, you need to redo your menus for the new theme; sidebar widgets get moved to “inactive” state due to how WordPress works and some CSS has changed … it’s basically a NEW theme. But you’re not obligated to use it; the old v4 isn’t going to stop working. The only reason to upgrade to the NEW theme is if you want all the new features, new grid, new functions, new CSS, etc.
There is no 1:1 upgrade from v4 to v6 just as there would not be moving from any theme to another.
To use the new theme you need to upgrade per the instructions, then adjust and refresh certain things to fit the different layout, new menu options, and so forth.
One option is to clone your existing site into a sub-domain, then do the upgrade, revise things to work with new theme then move over the settings to your production site — this is how it’s done for most professional settings.
(I am not on staff here, and won’t be providing any help after today in these forums, but I was checking on something else for my own use and thought I’d give you that feedback — its not an update, it’s a whole new theme …. hence the issue you’re running into …)

I will investigate this and I will try to add a class_exists for the three classes in the next version (1-2 weeks) for the following classes td_menu, td_tagdiv_walker_nav_menu, td_nav_menu_edit_walker . I did not managed to fully understand the consequences of such a change now because we are all replying to support requests 🙂 but I think it will allow full menu customization. (or if we include the files with locate template – that should also work).
Any update on this now that v2 is out? Can we alter files in wp_booster folder via child theme or the API?
I haven’t updated a theme for a while, because it is kind of painful – I made too many customizations. And after the update there are no images on my site – just blank spots. Thumbs, images (both uploaded via my site or embedded from other hosts) are not displayed. What can be the problem?
Ок. Спасибо за понятный ответ. Заметил, что во многих темах не поддерживается функционал CPT, только если он не был разработан под ключ специально для темы, например, Portfolio, FAQ и др.
Будет просто отлично, если у Вас получится совместить функционал темы и CPT! 🙂 Это позволит значительно расширять и усложнять разрабатываемые сайты на WP для воплощения самых разных идей. Попробую подождать обновлений, а пока пожертвую блогом, чтобы реализовать задуманное.
У Вас получилась действительно классная тема! Я был сильно удивлён, когда наглядно увидел, как на самом деле быстро может работать сайт на WP. Вдобавок к этой скорости я дополнительно удалил Customizer WP с помощью нового плагина https://wordpress.org/plugins/customizer-remove-all-parts/ и тема стала летать, как реактивный самолёт 🙂 http://imgdisk.ru/images/2015/07/11/Screenshot_1.png
Кстати, на одном из своих сайтов в качестве конструктора страниц я давно и успешно использую Page Builder by SiteOrigin https://wordpress.org/plugins/siteorigin-panels/ который является достойной альтернативой Visual Composer. VC, хотя он и классный, я не люблю из-за его медленной работы, которая плохо сказывается на всей скорости работы сайта. Но вам удалось каким-то образом его правильно оптимизировать и это действительно круто! 🙂
Желаю удачи!

Ok. Thank you for your clear answer. I noticed that in many themes is not supported functionality CPT, only if it was not designed specifically for the turnkey theme, such as, Portfolio, FAQ, and others.
It will be just fine,if you get to combine the functionality of theme and CPT! 🙂 This will greatly expand and complicate the developed sites in WP to implement a variety of ideas. I’ll try to wait for updates, and sacrifice is a blog to implement its plans.
You get a really cool theme! I was very surprised when I saw clearly, in fact it can work quickly on site WP. In addition to this speed, I removed the extra Customizer WP with a new plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/customizer-remove-all-parts/ and theme was to fly like a jet plane 🙂 http://imgdisk.ru/images/2015/07/11/Screenshot_1.png
Incidentally, at one of its sites as a constructor of pages I have long and successfully been using Page Builder by SiteOrigin https://wordpress.org/plugins/siteorigin-panels/ which is a viable alternative to Visual Composer. VC, although it is cool, I do not like because of its slow work, which is bad for the whole speed of the site. But you managed to somehow it properly optimized and it’s really cool! 🙂
Good luck!
Hello,
I just updated to latest version, news ticker in my homepage is set to display 5 but it only shows 1 item after the update. It was working fine before the update.
I don’t use CDN.
Ok so I deactivate all except tagDiv Speed Booster & VC.
After 404 on the post pages, now it is ok for photos on computer and mobile.
I reactivate first WP Retina 2X and photos stop showing on mobile! 🙁
So I reactivate all the other.
Another test in webpagetest.com and it still say that the file your show that is missing.
http://www.virtualmagie.org/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/js_files/td_smooth_scroll.js?ver=6.2
I didn’t touch anything about the theme files!
And I just check your files: in that update there is no more the js_files folder.
So how it is possible my site try to reach it (I find nothing in the htaccess)?
How I could correct that?
Regards
Thanks for the tumb’s reference, which worked out nicely…
All the rest is really very frustrating,
You discontinue updates on a version I bought due to particular features you had and release a newer version that no longer offers the same set of features??
- I followed the steps on that guide you linked too in the first place (removal of the old version + older VC plugin, installation of the newer version & plugins + the update script which led me to this point
- The previous version had some problem with Multilanguage but eventually I found I could rectify any small issue using WPML (which also cost extra) – but made everything work perfectly.
- Old RTL support needed some work on the CSS side – but I also had that fixed rather easily but that’s about it.
- I haven’t done any other unique changes to the old theme 🙁
I can also see the post and the categories in the admin so – the data was not effected it seems like the modules don’t handle the structure in the same way and the fact you say it was rewritten suggests that may be the cause and you may be able to solve this.
Since I don’t have the skills to fix this myself which was the whole point of buying a theme that supported what I needed to begin with – please help me understand if this is something you think you can resolve or I should start looking for another theme?
Hi,
I’m not sure also so I can’t provide you an accurate answer on this as I’m not aware of the steps you’ve followed or the actions you made updating it or also what modification you’ve done to the theme, so first I suggest you follow the guide below to update the theme and please also consider the the new version 6 of the theme is practically a new theme with a new grid, new design, new features, it was basically rewritten.
Any modification you’ve made to theme’s code would have to be done again and adjusted to its new code and you should also consider that the latest theme version doesn’t include rtl support and we haven’t tested it with any multilingual plugins so unfortunately in this case you would have to do the necessary changes yourself or get some to help you do it because we cannot offer any type of custom work at this moment. Sorry!
The missing thumbs you have in the slider: http://screencast.com/t/ImR740SX need to be enabled from theme panel. Please see this guide for more information on this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
Updating the theme right shouldn’t cause you any issues so you can try to update the theme based on this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ backup your current install, run the import settings script, update plugins and check the result. You can always get back to the previous working theme version if something goes wrong as long as you backup it but doing the update as instructed the theme should work fine.
You should also consider into the process at the following aspects:
– backup your current theme/WordPress/database: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
– setup a maintenance mode and you can use a plugin for that.
– empty all caches/purge files if you also use CDN host then disable any services of this type until you switch to the new theme
– disable all plugins
– install the theme then install the required plugins
– switch back the rest of the plugins and start other services
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi,
W3TC can be a bit heavy, it has a lot of options which may cause trouble if they are not properly configured. We only recommended it for page cache in the past. Now we recommend using WP Super Cache, we made some tests and it behaved better.
The Visual Composer plugin had some issues lately, they only appeared on some configurations. Check if you have the latest version of the theme (v.6.2) and the latest version of Visual Composer (v.4.5.3 ). If you don’t please update and see if the issue is still there. You could also try the Shim plugin but note that it works only with the elements (blocks) added by the theme – http://screencast.com/t/nmhhPPpa95 – http://screencast.com/t/KW0JP337pt – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newsmag-1-7-1-killed-our-server-again/page/3/
On our official demo we also use MySQL Query Cache – https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/query-cache.html
You could also check the error.log file to see if there’s any report related to this issue.
Thank you!
Awwhhh it worked finally. Thanks a lot 🙂
But this change will be overwritten with future updates -_- what to do then?
Great it is working now. Updated from 6.1 to 6.2.1.
Hi,
Please make sure that you updated the theme properly and also the plugins that come with the theme’s files from the /plugins folder. Also check this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active, clear cache and purge your files if you use CDN. If you still have this issue please provide a link so we can take a look.
Thanks!
Hi,
The theme wasn’t designed with custom post types in mind, we are working to improve the theme functionality in this area. On blocks there’s an option to set a custom post type but there’s no taxonomy option, we will include it in a future update. – http://screencast.com/t/d79f7Ua4yfqy
If you’re in a hurry and you don’t want to wait for our updates i suggest that you hire a professional developer to add such functionality, it’s a complicated area and unfortunately i cannot provide a quick solution, sorry for this.
Thank you!
Glad if you could change that in your next update. Took me a while to figure out why my WP media setting (696px) for Large images was resized to 640px in my pages/posts. /Walther
Hi,
Is it possible to NOT display the date and author of a post JUST FOR ONE SUB-CATEGORY?
I want to have a series of product instructions translated into a local language. They could be static pages BUT I would like to have the equivalent of a ‘category page’ showing the choice available with appropriate thumbnails for the reader to choose from. If I understand it correctly category pages would update when new sets of instructions are added and could display different selections depending on most popular etc. It seems I do want posts not pages (is that right?), but I would rather not have date and author on them.
I am very new to this theme, and only have limited experience with WordPress, so I may be missing something obvious. On the other hand we do have a lot of programming experience so we may not be put off by a more complicated solution if needed.
Any suggestions?
So I’ve been using the theme for a while now and after upgrading to V6 (Luckily on a test subdomain at this point) I see all the posts in the secondary language are missing and strange errors appearing.
It could be a problem following the update script or something in the source code that is different from V4 – I am not sure.
The test site is on this link: http://test.virtualida.com/
(Also not sure what’s wrong with the images – I ran the “regenerate images” using the plugin “Regenerate Thumbnails” v2.2.4 By Viper007Bond)
Hi,
I have checked your site and seems that you social icons are fine now – http://screencast.com/t/xrGeObvUHXFE
Unfortunately we have changed the shortcodes for qoutes and dropcaps(I guess that this is what you mean), now they use html. We tried to add them but on some cases there was a chance for errors to appear and we decided not to include them in the script. Please try to add the following code at the end of the functions.php file – http://screencast.com/t/OWxqEsYVK – http://pastebin.com/7yme4TLv
Also it was an issue with SEO titles, but it was fixed in version 6.2.1 – http://screencast.com/t/Vmhsdqqhe so please download and update to this version(after you update it may appear version 6.2 in Theme Panel as we forgot to change the theme version). If you don’t want to update, here is a quick fix – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/urgent-title-changues-newspaper-6-2-bug/#post-57451
Hope this helps!
Hi,
There is not option to change the speed of news ticker from settings, you will have to change it from the code – http://screencast.com/t/eq1ubcdsps
You can translate “More from author” in Theme Panel > Translations – http://screencast.com/t/1di6RClnq8QR but you will need custom modifications if you want to display another articles in that section, unfortunately we cannot provide custom work at this time as we are working hard on the development, updates, fixes and support.
Thanks!
