Follow up….All Browsers are reading my site as a different language since the update…. parsippanyfocus.com
I just updated to 6.1 and now google chrome shows japanese characters for the social icons in the top bar. I have english set as default language.
So – next update arrived – installed – same issues remain. Please advise.
Well, I have been testing it(Newspaper 6) offline using Instant WP, do you recommend that or you have any other offline mode of testing, you can suggest us to use?
And, I noticed that another update from 6 to 6.1 came nd that was real fast. But, I see that TagDiv has mentioned that, you should delete the previous theme and install the new theme. But, if we switch the site to maintenance mode and delete the old theme, and may(which I don’t want) encounter any problems, then what should we do? Again install the old and set it as it was (export theme settings)? Why not just simply keep the old version and activate it if the new version runs into problems?
I was confident about Newspaper 6, but after I was notified about 6.1 update, I am not that confident. Who knows what problem it has? You should release a beta version first before launching a major update. (IMO)
Kind Regards,
Ankush Das
Hello,
I have just install the fresh new update and i still have the problem with the Big Grid 2. It work’s with the the theme, but when i use the child theme i have the same problem.
I hope the update will fix this point. 🙁
I’ve just had another notification that the theme has been updated on ThemeForest. Should I reinstall again or is it an incremental change?
Can updates be done from the theme panel?
Hello latest visual composer active, after updating to Newspaper 6 blocks not showing in background, and even with default page templates not able to edit. For reference screenshot links given below..
tried with database update and without update, same Problem. Also tried with deactivating all plugins expect visual composer.

Not able to edit default template – http://s28.postimg.org/adeaydixp/image.jpg
I have updated the plugin to version 4.1, but still having the same problem.
I could really use some help with the upgrade, my last attempt went fatally wrong and I had to restore the backup files and database. I am running version 4.x (April upgrade). I followed the instructions on your how-to upgrade page.
I turned off all plugins, renamed old theme folder, uploaded new theme 6 folder, ran update script but the settings didn’t get transferred. It was a real mess. I would try and edit the homepage using the Visual Composer.. adding a simple text box but that wouldn’t even show up. I then tried to install the demo with content figuring if that worked I could at least use that as a base but that didn’t work either.
Im afraid to try upgrading it again.
Your speedbooster don’t work with one of the big WP firewalls and i can’t use your plugin because of it even though i just update to the latest speedbooter..
v4.1 – Disabled – incompatible plugin detected: all-in-one-wp-security-and-firewall/wp-security.php
Hi,
I just updated to version 6.1. – first, thanks a lot for the quick update. You are awesome.
I am just curious about the behavior of the speed booster. In the new system status panel it is telling me that spped booster has a problem with severall plugins. I already deactivated az glossary index, seo images, animated gif resize …. each time a new plugin pops up as the next source of problem for the speed booster.
What shall I do? Any idea might help. I can’t deactivate all of my plugins just to get speed booster running.
regards,
julingn
Hi,
Yes, the update was already approved by envato – http://screencast.com/t/g27nXawJd
Please check this guide to update – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!
I read in a different topic today that the update 6.1 is already waiting for acceptance at themeforest…so there is nothing tagdiv can do about it right now.
so far nothing update, that sucks for those who need the resource
Hello all,
I’m very sorry for all the troubles. As Chris pointed out this is a whole new theme that is released for free for all of our existing customers (and it’s the biggest theme we ever made). I know we could have prepare better for the transition and I’m very sorry for all the problems that the update caused but from now on the theme is built to be stable for at least one year. We are already writing huge amounts of documentation about the inner workings of the theme and the theme api, we will not change it again for some time.

Thank you @Radu for the update. I look forward to the updates to NewsMag..and I may actually also get NewsPaper 6 in the future. I’m just awaiting really cool gallery options in NewsMag (something like what The Voux theme does, where they have a gallery that opens up in a lightbox slider and you can have ads and also your text/description on the right side) – that would definitely set these themes way above all the other magazine style themes out there (it’s one feature lots of bloggers like myself who does lifestyle magazine based blogs keep asking for).
Hi,
I will fix this in the next update (probably by adding a try catch or @). (6.2) Thanks for reporting it!
Already made the first update to that plugin, versioning now as 1.1
With the update the plugin other than the “widget”, it provides a shortcode [CustomNewspaper6Login]
Using that shortcode anywhere in a post or a page, it does the same job as the widget, therefore you are not limited to use the login/logout functionality only from a widget, but anywhere in your theme.
The first post on that topic contains the updated plugin.

Hi,
Did you updated to the version 6 of the theme? Unfortunately the Social Icons block is not used anymore in this version of the theme, sorry! There is an option to display social icons on top menu bar – http://screencast.com/t/OdN4qdz9obdW and you have to add your links here – http://screencast.com/t/XwefiKcWLvs6
Thanks!
AND also the sticky menu is disappearing below it.
I was some z-indexes in the source code used by the revslide, something around 18, 20, but also i found that you have acutally put the menu on z-index:9999
So it should work, but it doesnt, not in FF, not in Chrome, and I have no idea of why and hope you find out soon and can give also a temporary fix until the next update comes 🙂
Thanks for this theme
Hi,
Please add category slug name there – http://screencast.com/t/Rh3kTxST as I have checked again this and it is working fine, you have to add this code for each article ad (top, inline, bottom) – http://screencast.com/t/fODHijmyWxj – http://screencast.com/t/Vheples1T2t
and !in_category('new-look-2015')
I suggest to get someone to help you if you don’t have basic php experience as we cannot provide any type of custom work at this time as we work hard on development, updates and support.
Hope this helps!
Hi,
Before update please backup the site (database and files) – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
There is a guide how to update the theme – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ I suggest to delete the old theme, then upload version 6. Also disable all your plugins when you update and then update the theme’s plugins, you can find them in the /plugins folder. After the update run the script included in the Welcome panel – http://screencast.com/t/eZxxuqvsTir running the script it will import old settings from database and it will change the shortcodes like you can see in the documentation. Also you have to regenerate the thumbs – https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/ You may have to re-add widgets on the sidebars, some of them may not be imported or don’t exist anymore.
Thanks!
Hi,
1. Please make sure that you use the latest version of Visual Composer activate it from here – http://screencast.com/t/sICGwGTQXQTh and check the version – http://screencast.com/t/f1AAZ0ayq
2. We removed the quotes shortcodes, we use html with classes now. The quotes are not updated by the script, sorry. We tried to add them but on some cases there was a chance for errors to appear an we decided not to include them in the script.
Try to add the following code at the end of the functions.php file – http://screencast.com/t/OWxqEsYVK – http://pastebin.com/NZEJsWQZ
Thanks!
