Hi team,
I’ve been reporting this issue since October 7, 2025 at 9:23 PM, and even after several recent updates, many users can still register by bypassing the CAPTCHA and other security measures. This leaves the door open to spammers, which is a real concern.
Could you please prioritize fixing it? I’ll hold off on the next update until it’s resolved. When it’s addressed, kindly update this thread to let us know—much appreciated!
Thanks so much, and have a great day!
Hi, in the version 12.7.4 there seems to be an issue with ‘Lightbox’ option within the posts.
– I have “General Modal Image” active in the theme panel.

– Beyond that, I am using the Lightbox configuration on almost every image included in posts.

Since the last update, the lightbox is broken.
– If the option is active in post editor, only error message is shown on live page (“Cannot load image #1”). For example this post.
– When I disable the lightbox in post editor, live page is working – probably because of the “General Modal Image” option in theme panel. For example this post.
– Also tried a combination when the “General Modal Image” is disabled and only “Lightbox” in post editor is active – then the same error message is shown.
Until the new version of the Newspaper, everything worked just fine even when both of the options were active. Could you please take a look on that? Of course, I can edit every single existing post and disable the “Lightbox” option there, but it would be great If some fix could be done from your side.
Many thanks!
Hi,
You can review the recent updates in the changelog here:
https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609#item-description__autoupdate-system
The update includes several security and vulnerability fixes. However, I can’t confirm whether the specific issue mentioned in this thread has been explicitly addressed. Given that it appears to be a more targeted issue with a known workaround, it’s possible that it was not included in this update.
Thank you.
Hi,
I believe this is not a theme update-related issue. I checked on my side, and everything is working correctly.
What I will suggest is to try with a different browser, if the problem persists, then make a test using only tagDiv plugins, sometimes extra plugins can interfere.
Thank you!
Hi,
Does this deprecated message appear in Newscape v12.7.4?
If you do not have the latest theme version, please make a full backup and update the theme and theme plugins – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!

Hello after update on new version, I have problem with ads box I can’t edit ads Box and when exit editor mode ads isn’t visible.
Hi,
You can make thetheme update using this guide https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Before doing the theme update, make sure that you have a full backup for your website.
Hi, received email via themeforest that update is available for download. However, no clear guidelines to help. When I click to download, I see the files.
Now, why isn’t the update pushed to WordPress directly?
Or, am I to upload these files to WordPress? Won’t that affect existing setup? Confused here and look for clarification. Thanks
After the update, the display on the phone is a shy and everything is unpayed… I didn’t use the mobile menu before and everything worked in a responsive way.
Now it looks disgusting:
economiaeterritoio.it
Today after update ..
We’d like to let you know that an update to your item Newspaper – News & WooCommerce WordPress Theme by tagDiv is now available in your Downloads page.
Stay in maintenance….
After: A recent update has not been completed.
Then solved by manually updating the template plugins..
Honestly a type of update not proper Friendly..
To be managed piece by piece..
I don’t know what happened but it worked that time and showed up. I got it updated. Thank you for your help.
Hi,
The reported “vulnerability in tagDiv Cloud Library 3.9” does not apply to our setup. The current installed version is 3.9.2, and as shown in the Patchstack reports, the issue has already been fixed.
However, because the plugin version string includes the text “| built on 12.01.2026 14:31”, some security scanning tools are not interpreting the version number correctly and are flagging it incorrectly.
A theme update will be released soon that removes this extra text from the version field and places it in the description instead, which should resolve the false positives.
If you would like to test this now, an RC version is available under Newspaper → Updates (click Check Updates and look for the RC version). Please ensure this is tested on a staging environment, not on the live site.
Thank you.
You say fixed but is still says so.
“vulnerability in tagDiv Cloud Library 3.9”
I use Newspaper 12.7.3 latest
You should tell us what is the problem or publish new update asap
Good morning! I would like to ask for help in resolving a problem with the mobile version. For many years everything worked correctly. Currently, just before the update, the mobile site broke (as shown in the attachment). It does not look like it does in the TagDiv preview. In Composer, I installed the Newspaper updates, reinstalled the Mobile plugin, and it still doesn’t work. In Newspaper → Theme Panel → Mobile Theme, I have Mobile + AMP set. In the TagDiv Composer preview everything looks fine (as in the attachment), but it does not load correctly in reality.https://autoelectromoto.pl/zrzut-ekranu-2026-01-12-o-20-31-58_11zon and https://autoelectromoto.pl/img_2598_11zon/
Hi,
I see you are referring to the tooltip; this is indeed the old one.
I have made a note for our developers to review it and update the text. Everything related to Twitter will be checked and updated to X.
Thank you!
Hi,
The fix for the mentioned vulnerability was already made and is in the plugin version 3.9.2 – https://i.imgur.com/1nRgInw.png if you have this version, you do not need to worry even if you see that message, we have confirmation from wordfence that the vulnerability is fixed, but it is an interpretation issue with the theme version.
Also, there will be a new theme update soon
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, this will be in the coming theme update!
Thanks

All the widgets blocks on the site are locked – a small padlock icon appears next to them in the list view
The contents of the blocks can be unlocked, but not the blocks themselves
I have tried various things, including:
switching back to classic widgets
deactivating all plug-ins/all plug-ins except the tag div ones that control the theme, both by deactivating via the theme and by disabling them via SFTP
switching the site to a standard WordPress site temporarily (Twenty Twenty one)
switching from a child theme to the main Newspaper theme
pausing Cloudflare
updated to WordPress 6.9
checking permissions
None of these had any effect
The widget screen also takes a very long time to open – which is why I want to delete most of them … but cannot.
Yes, you can see from your picture that the mouseover says Twitter, not X, so its all these instances that needs to be updated as well.
In the Newspaper theme, under Row > Column, Social Icons, it is still termed as Twitter, appreciate if it can be updated and have the codes all checked for instances of “Twitter” and change them to “X”, this is important as its driving SEO engines crazy, I kept receiving errors on social media links…
Hi, and thanks for your reply.
Before I do a pointless update, just to get to the same place, let me clarify something, please.
I am using the 12.7.1 version of the theme, and the 2.7 version of the plugin.
Now, the 12.7.1 version of the theme came packaged with the 2.7 version of the mobile plugin, so they should work together from the very beginning, no matter what updates are relased afterwards. I did install the latest version of the mobile plugin, out of curiosity, and got the same error.
Goind by this logic, is it possible to find a solution to this without having to go through the update process, and get to the same place ?
Thanks.
Hi nearview,
There is a fix for this, but I do not know why it has not been added in the theme update, but I will provide it here for you https://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/tdb_state_category.zip you need to unzip the file and replace the file from the path wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/state/category/tdb_state_category.php
First, I will suggest using a staging to do the test and not directly on the main site. Also, make sure you have a backup before doing any changes.
Hi,
This is an old theme version. I suggest making a full backup of the website and updating the theme to version 12.7.3. After the theme is updated, make sure that all theme plugins that you are using are also updated. This should resolve the problem.
