Hi,
We recommend to update the theme via FTP(please make a backup of your current theme instalation) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/
Also if you are using previous version(4.6.2) you can use the patch and copy only files that were updated and then update the plugins that come with the theme’s files(visual composer,social counter…) from /plugins folder .
Regarding the plugins and theme customization – the styling options you’ve set in the WordPress Theme Customize or options from Theme Panel – those options should not be affected by updating your theme, only if you have custom modification to the theme’s files you will need to re-add them as when you update the theme these files will be overwritten.
Thanks!
Hello i have updated the Theme at latest version, and WordPress version 4.2.1 but now is impossbile to put link in text, why? 🙁
Hi,
We’ve uploaded the theme again, it should be up in a few hours (depending on how fast it’s accepted by Envato). You should get the update message after that, let me know if it doesn’t appear.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
We’ll try to approach this from several points of view and see if we can manage to solve it.
We’ll get back to you when we have an update on this.
Thanks
Hi Chris,
We will consider it for future update, meanwhile you can use the css code from below to disable the animation:
.td_module_trending_now {
-webkit-animation-name: aa;
animation-name: aa;
}
Thanks
Hi,
If you didn’t made any modification to wordpress not be updated you should have the option to update it. Or maybe wordpress was automatically updated please check at bottom of the Dashboard page – http://screencast.com/t/U3eY3mmuI

Hi there,
I have updated to the latest version of Newsmag, and now I find that I can’t remove the title of the category from the category pages in the menu (they appear in a black block in the top left corner of the page—see screenshot http://awesomescreenshot.com/03c4v3ug87).
I have previously been able to remove this, but can’t find where to do it again. I would be grateful for your help.
Thanks a lot,
Mark Angus
Hi there!!
We aré using the Newspaper Theme (www.pacmac.es) and we have received a few days ago an email announcing the new theme update.
Before we do it we would like to know if that update is going to respect our current plugins and theme configuration.
It is the first time we have received an update outside of the WordPress updating tab and we don’t wanna screw our site.
Which one is the best way to do the update?? Via FTP or the WordPress installation.
Thanks
I updated the theme through FTP but version not Changed, now theme write 4.6.3

Hi Alin
Ok, where can I find now the 2.9 version of Social Counter? Can you help me?
And tell me, you have some documentation about how to update the theme? Or I just have to uninstall the old and install the new version?
Thank You

Hi!
I’m trying to put Sulvo Ads in my website, with newsmag 1.6 (need to update to new version) and wordpress 4.2.
So, i put the code that sulvo gave me, and applied them in the site, in the spots i need to put, and the ads are showing, but i have a problem with impressions counting.
For some unknown reason i have few impressions, like 100 per ad spot / per day, but i have a high traffic in my website.
I tried other wordpress plugins, put the code manually, inserting directly the code in the theme, i see the ads but the daily report in sulvo shows a lower number of impressions when comparing with the traffic i have per day (more than 25000 pageviews).
The code sulvo gave me, is html/js (more js than html).
What could be the reason for this?
Anyone can help me with this?
Best regards,
Hi,
If you don’t want to update you don’t need to update just please use Social Counter version from Newsmag 1.5.
We have made some changes from then and the Social Counter 2.10 was not tested with Newsmag 1.5.
And yes if you want to update all custom modifications to the files will be overwritten.
Thanks!
Hi,
We know about this issue and still testing this. We hope to be fixed in the next update.
Thanks and sorry for inconvenience!
Hello,
I’m trying to replicate category style top posts grid in main blog page. I have found that this piece of code is responsible. So I copied it inside the container to index page and it shows perfectly.
Except for one feature, it duplicates posts in the blog page. I wonder if anyone know how can I manually disable duplicate posts in index.php in addition to this code.
<?php td_api_category_template::_helper_show_category_template() ?>
<?php td_api_category_top_posts_style::_helper_show_category_top_posts_style() ?>Extra information:
Wordpress 4.21
Newsmag 1.7.1 (Thank you for the update)
We don’t use Visual Composer, tagdiv speed booster or any other plugin bundled with theme.
Why? Because I have tried every version but our CPU use still goes crazy and site is non responsive with these plugins enabled. I have waited for a month for updates, got them, nothing changed. I tried nearly every plugin combination, including disabling every other plugin and only enabling these plugins. It’s impossible, page load time goes to 45 seconds to no response. In my previous post I explained that this happens with hundreds of concurrent online users, so normal blogs need not be alarmed. Also it just doesn’t load normally in page edit screen (Checked for that option it’s correctly set) it gets loaded then dissapears out of page. Tried with different browsers too. But solving is not important anymore with high admin ajax use on server it’s done for me.
I like the themes quality coding, speed, style and options. But with in this situation I have to make this simple change because I can’t use VC for this. I would very much love to see some more styling options included for blog and posts section of theme options, instead of relying on VC.
So if you can point me in right direction I want to make this change works.
Best Regards,
This is exactly what I meant – just make the content area for posts etc. wider. So is there an update planned in the future to change that? I saw a lot of request regarding this as I surfed throug this forum today.
Thank you for your fast answer and supprt!

Floda
I just updated from 3.6 to the latest version and to my pleasure I see that the theme’s post view counter finally works with plugin. Before the update I used the workaround as suggested by tagDIV which used the Ajax_the_views plugin and the WP-PostViews plugin. Now I want to abandon those plugins and use the Theme’s counter, but I don’t want to lose all the views on my older posts. Those views are stored in the database in the postmeta table under the meta_value views. Now I want to copy the value from views to the theme’s custom field post_views_count.
Does anyone know what query to run to make this possible? I already tried this code as suggested by Marius to someone else:
update ‘wp_postmeta’
set ‘meta_value’ = ‘views’
where ‘meta_key’ = ‘post_views_count’
Unfortunately this doesn’t work. Can someone help me out?
Hello Emil,
change something on the Custom Typography section and then make another change on the custom fonts?
Yes.
I changed font url, but it wasn’t affected. Then I check options in database and see that problem, td_fonts_css_buffer value didn’t update when changes save.
Note to all – this week is an important time not to neglect doing due diligence in WordPress updates — checking both core WP version, ALL your plugins for new versions or that they are secure — and doing the updates.
A wide variety of major security issues have come to light, which you NEED TO ADDRESS to keep your site secure.
The black hats will start trolling sites for vulnerable WordPress installs, particularly those with disclosure of your WP version number in your head and/or version numbers of exploitable apps.
Take this seriously.
The news ticker is now on the site so you can see the problem for yourself.
I updated the theme through FTP yes.
I have also tried deactivating all plugins and the issue is still happening…
Thanks!
Hi everybody —
just heads up that the “intermittent” issue we saw pop up last week with Google News appending the “category buttons” to the captured headline appearing in Google News story listings seems to have kicked in full force today — across all our sites on every story, and I’ve had to go and disable the post settings > show categories ….
If you run into this issue, you should turn off the categories, the change a single word in your headline and update post to get Google News to recapture.
Likely going to have to consider moving these below the byline.
Hey, they fixed this issue with the new updates.
Hey Emil,
It still isn’t appearing. This is what I currently see: http://www.screencast.com/t/guzrsWzrY
Even with wordpress updated, this doesn’t change.
Best,
Carly
We have lost the sub-menu customizations after the update. I noticed the td_menu.php changed a lot. how do I add more that 5 categories in the sub menu?
I already updated the theme, but the size of the ads continues responsive instead 336x280px for the posts (article top). So, I´m sending to your email my login and password to you see the problem of your theme.
Your answer for the 10. is incomplete, please click again in the urls and see my problem. You told me to “change the height size” but didnt especificate what size in what block, I tried to change the 300x160px block, I tried to change the another block too, I edited the media settings unchecking the box and didnt work. So, whats the SOLUTION and what is the best wide, tall and rate to the images of this theme?
