Hi,
Do you still have this issue? Seems to me like your video is showing fine, the same way it’s displayed on YouTube
Are you referring at this black block? http://screencast.com/t/HbrbvPRtSS
If you are still encountering this problem please try to update to latest theme version 4.2 also try to disable the speed booster plugin if you are using it.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Hi,
Thanks for your suggestion, we will consider this, like I said this is on our todo list from version 4 update and it will be implemented as soon as possible.
Thanks for understanding!
Hi,
I suggest you try to find a plugin that dose that, like https://wordpress.org/plugins/go-live-update-urls/ or similar.
Thanks
Hi,
Should work, we have worked at this in the last update, also added a new feature for post views count in Theme Panel under Post Settings to update the post views count for both pages and single post page if you have a caching plugin active http://screencast.com/t/nRx0wXt82
Please also try to deactivate all plugins except those theme requires and check to see if the popular 7 days post sorting starts working. Also please send a link to your site and point out where do you use these feature.
Thanks
Hi,
Like I said here we usually include the VC plugin at it’s latest version when we update the theme.
Unfortunately we hadn’t made any test with the VC latest version an we didn’t included it in the last update.
You can use this version of VC if you want and try to find a solution yourself or wait until the next update and we will test the plugin and fix this.
Sorry about this!
Thanks
Can you guys check my website:

My Menu drop down behide the Revolution slider. It happen after i update to new version. And i use child-newspaper for the blog. Please help me @@
Contact Form 7 is not part of the theme, so likely a good idea to look at the support forums for the plugin here:
http://contactform7.com/faq/i-see-green-border-response-but-i-never-receive-mail/
Normally such issues are due to server configuration, and the plugin setup/settings.
Most common is that the email is going into your spam/junk/trash folder and so not being seen in your inbox, or it’s being blocked/bounced as possible spam. So, checking your server/site “error log” for PHP is a good first step.
If you’re sure it’s somehow theme related, you should first try switching to the default WP theme and see if it still does not work, and then debug your settings in the plugin for how it connects to your mail server (authentication? port? phpmailer?). If it does appear to be theme related, albeit unlikely, you should update this post with the steps you tried to debug the problem.
Hope that helped a little đ
Hi,
Unfortunately at the moment the theme doesn’t support this option and we are searching for a solution to this, we have this on our issue list and we will try to implement this as soon as possible in future updates.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks for your message!
Hi,
Glad you have managed to solve this.
Unfortunately we haven’t made any tests with the VC at 4.3.2 version.
Usually when updating the theme we updated the plugin also but this time we haven’t updated the plugin as we didn’t managed to test it right.
Sorry about this.
Please install the plugin from theme’s files previous version. We will update the VC in the next update and fix this issue.
Thanks
Hi,
I have added this to our todo list and we will implement this in future updates.
Thanks
Hi,
any news on a fix for this? I’ve updated to the latest version and I’m still seeing odd results on my front page.
Thanks
Mike
Hi,
1. For the first one try adding the rev slider and the text content like this: http://screencast.com/t/tIvpXH01
Result: http://screencast.com/t/cjKYuy8b
2. You can do it like @TheMediumUTM said and add it using custom layout http://screencast.com/t/avK5ot1Kn9c
3. Please provide more details/screenshot of what are you trying to archive and we will try to provide you a fix for it. I have tested the button and doesn’t seem to work we will look into this.
4. You can use this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom CSS filed to center the header main menu:
#td-top-menu .sf-menu {
display: table;
float: none;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
}Try this ones: http://screencast.com/t/athHle0z
Thanks for the suggestion, will add more in the future updates if more people demand this.
5. Like i suggested above you can use an “Text Block” element for that and you can chose a custom class and use it to change the font style by adding a custom css like this:
http://screencast.com/t/owpfgD3uXp
6. Like @TheMediumUTM suggested you can use a row and split the row into 2/3 content and 1/3 sidebar.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
I got that guys.
Thanks a lot Chris and Lucian. đ
Hi,
We have missed this, sorry about it, I have added this as an issue and we will make sure the VC plugin will be updated in the next theme version.
Unfortunately Radu O. is not available for now as he is in vacations but we will remediate this as soon as he gets back.
Thanks for understanding and we are sorry abut this inconvenience.
Hi,
You can change this from Theme Panel now from here http://screencast.com/t/4zGlot5y5
I have tested this and it works fine now for titles from big slider: http://screencast.com/t/7uC3Obg9
Unfortunately we have missed this option for the normal slider in theme panel.
Sorry about this, it will be added in the next update. Until then you can still change it from here: http://screencast.com/t/N2M9WLcavq
Thanks

Hi,
Please make sure you have added the code right in the functions.php file.
Add only this code for the parent theme, paste it from below, and try it again, make sure you add it like this:http://screencast.com/t/O1dMaenrpcFK
/**
* Add theme compatibility
* @param array $themes - array of default compatible themes
*/
function newspaper_theme_compat( $themes ){
$themes['newspaper'] = array(
'post_type' => 'post',
'taxonomy' => false,
'post_meta' => array(
'embed' => 'tie_embed_code'
),
'post_format' => 'video',
'theme_name' => 'Newspaper'
);
return $themes;
}
add_filter('cbc_youtube_theme_support', 'newspaper_theme_compat');
/**
* On bulk post import, set up all extra fields needed by the theme to flag post as video
* @param int $post_id - ID of newly created post
* @param array $video - array of video data returned by YouTube
* @param false/array $theme_import - theme import configuration
*/
function newspaper_post_fields( $post_id, $video, $theme_import ){
// check if setting is to import as theme post
if( !$theme_import ){
return;
}
$postarray["td_video"] ="http://youtu.be/".$video['video_id'];
update_post_meta($post_id, 'td_post_video', $postarray );
}
add_action('cbc_post_insert', 'newspaper_post_fields', 10, 3);Hope this works!
Thanks
Hi,
This issue it’s in our todo list and we will fix it in one of the next updates.
Sorry about this!
Thanks for the message!
I don’t think the theme expressly is advertised as having any special/advanced support for BuddyPress … however, is believed to work with BuddyPress as you know from your prior posts on this topic. Remember that updates/upgrades are being done based on those most requested items, and this is a “newspaper” theme, and not expressly a theme designed for forums and social communities, which might be found in a theme specifically tailored for BuddyPress. Compatibility is more often the responsibility of BuddyPress devs and not the theme devs as noted on the BuddyPress site here:
(snip)
Themes
The concept of what makes a âBuddyPress Themeâ can be a bit confusing. Since BuddyPress 1.7, your WordPress site is no longer required to have a theme that explicitly supports BuddyPress. Instead, BuddyPress comes with support for just about any modern and standard WordPress theme (especially the default ones.)
Back in 2010, bbPress popularized the concept of âTheme Compatibility.â This is a way of saying that even if your theme doesnât directly support a specific feature, that feature will still function, look, and feel as it was originally intended to.
Itâs a way to shift responsibility of code interoperability off of individual themes and onto feature developers to consider a wider audience.
Fun fact: WordPress has come with theme compatibility for comments for years â if your theme doesnât directly support comments, WordPress fills in that gap and your visitors would never notice the difference. Neat, eh?
Savvy theme authors can still build beautiful and amazing WordPress themes that exclusively target BuddyPress and bbPress; theme compatibility just simplifies the process for them by giving them a set of conventions to work within.
Weâll be adding some screenshots of popular themes with BuddyPress integration soon. In the meantime check out some WordPress themes that include BuddyPress support in the WordPress theme repository.
(/snip)
That likely didn’t help, but thought I’d share based on my own experience with BuddyPress and various WP themes the past couple of years.
Just a polite reminder/question, how come there are still no improvements for the BuddyPress support of the theme?
Hi,
For this newspaper site, I want the blocks on the front page to show only the latest 11 posts in a certain category, but in a random order. I can’t set them to “latest”, because then the posts will always be in the same order. I can’t set them to “random posts from last 7 days”, because although there are updates mostly every week, it’s not active in the summer or on holiday weeks, so it would be blank at those times. Should I just clear out this featured category regularly so it always has at least, but not more than, 11 or so? Otherwise this would be a very useful feature.
Hi Cherry
you might want to keep ONE thread, vs starting three or more regarding your site and pagespeed. Basically if you get all the things updated already covered in your other two threads, then mobile speed will also increase.
Again, as I’ve noted previously, you can’t do anything about the external ads being served which impact speed. Not sure how you’re loading ads on a demo site anyway, frankly. You should turn ads OFF for testing your “actual” speed. So the “errors” for mobile for the javascript and images from Google ads and advertisement browser caching, are impacting your score but nothing you can address and are false positives vis a vis the site and theme.
You *can* minify the main .css file which is showing as NOT minfied, as we’ve already covered in your prior threads.
Minifying http://cherrykoks.de/âŠntent/themes/Newspaper/style.css?ver=4.1 could save 7.1KiB (16% reduction) after compression.
And basically don’t use contact form 7 unless you actually need it. Since you don’t have a live site, why would you need somebody to contact you anyway at this stage of your playing with the theme and setup without actual content. If you’re planning to use that, then you could presumably add its css to bottom of the main style.css, then hack the plugin to not write its own CSS into the head of the theme; or this would be example of where — as you’d asked elsewhere — you would add the plugin to the speedbooster plugin code to get it dumped at bottom of theme and optimized.
And remember best to test a post page for score not home page, since most people do NOT land on a site home page, but “surf in” to content from a social media link/share, or search result page, etc. — home page will always be a trickier prospect since it’s not indicative of the rest of the site, using sliders, modules, more photos, ajax loads, etc.
Also be aware you cannot get a 100/100 score with a WordPress site running numerous photos, plugins, ads, social media hooks, etc. Only people who have accomplished this have done custom sites without images, using CDN, and custom coding to maximize above the fold content load separate from below the fold content.
If you get above 80 on mobile and above 90 on desktop, you can really get on with your life and worry about content and marketing.
@Cherry don’t use this plugin “Async JS and CSS” any more since the team updated the speedbooster plugin to handle those things you don’t need that plugin any more so don’t used it are it going cause you a lot of headaches…
After the latest update, it’s not possible to change settings in the category sections. I’ve found it out after trying to add a custom sidebar – it doesn’t work anymore.
