Hi,
I just checked the website as a visitator and no looks ok – https://i.imgur.com/nQiaK0v.png now warning is displaying.
Such warnings shouldn’t cause problems with the website, but we always investigate and fix them in theme updates. I’ll let our developer team know about this.
Thank you!
Hi,
No, the plugin is needed only for the current theme version. The coming update will contain the fix.
Thank you!
Hello,
I’m glad that you manage to resolve the problem with the theme update.
The second problem I do not thing that has something to do with the mentioned error, now most of the time it can be related to an extra plugin that is interfering or when there are insufficient resources. Please make sure that those theme requirements are set – https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ also please try using php v8.2 and v8.3 and see if there are any differences. If the problem persists, please do a test using only tagDiv plugins.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have a couple of questions regarding the default mobile menu behavior:
Disabling the .td-menu-socials-wrap area:
Is there a way to disable or hide this section in the default mobile menu via the admin settings? If not, what would be the recommended method (CSS or PHP) to remove it cleanly without affecting other parts of the menu?
Expanded subcategories in the mobile menu:
I came across a thread from 2020 stating that subcategories in the default mobile menu could not be shown expanded by default, as they were controlled via JavaScript. However, I recently saw a demo that seemed to use the standard mobile menu and had the subcategories already expanded when the menu opened.
Has this feature been updated or made possible recently? If yes, how can I achieve the same behavior?
Thanks in advance for your help!
In the future theme update should i include it again?
Hello team,
We’re currently encountering the following warning on our website running the Newspaper theme:
swift
Copy
Edit
Warning: Undefined array key “tdb_templates” in /srv/data/web/vhosts/www.spnl.org/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/includes/tdb_functions.php on line 661
This error started appearing after recent updates, and it’s now visible on our front end, impacting the user experience on https://www.spnl.org.
We would appreciate your support in resolving this issue. Could you please advise if there is:
A patch or plugin update available to fix this?
A recommended workaround to temporarily suppress the warning safely?
Any upcoming fixes in the next theme/plugin version?
Thanks in advance for your support. Please let us know how best to proceed.
Best regards,
Bassam
When I go to the theme panel to update the ads (IE “header ad” or “sidebar ad”) all I get is a spinning box on the right hand side where the little > appears. I cannot retrieve, change or alter the ads.
The rest of the theme functionality seems okay, but this problem is certainly frustrating.
Update: With the help of other Topics in the forum we managed to update the theme and the website design works. I don’t know if the other problem is also solved with the update, we have to look into it next week.
But if you know the answer to our second problem, please answer. Thanks!
We have 2 problems on our website.
1:
We can’t update the theme. When we do, the websites design is crashed.
2:
Often when we want to upload media it takes ages to load and the website eventually crashes.
We tried everything, the debug file only shows 1 problem (german, but you’ll get it):
PHP Notice: Die Funktion _load_textdomain_just_in_time wurde fehlerhaft aufgerufen. Das Laden der Übersetzung für die Domain td-cloud-library wurde zu früh ausgelöst. Das ist normalerweise ein Hinweis auf Code im Plugin oder Theme, der zu früh läuft. Übersetzungen sollten mit der Aktion init oder später geladen werden. Weitere Informationen: Debugging in WordPress (engl.). (Diese Meldung wurde in Version 6.7.0 hinzugefügt.) in /html/wordpress/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6121
So the problem is the newspaper theme or the tagdiv plugins.

Could you help soon?
Thanks!

Hello,
When I try to save a post with a YouTube video, the theme returns a JSON error: “Update failed. The response is not a valid JSON response.”
Any ideas on how to fix this?
Best regards,
Franck
Dear TagDiv Support,
My website is the problem: https://teknobilimadami.com/
I am experiencing a critical issue on my WordPress site that is directly related to the Newspaper Theme. When attempting to upload media files, the system either stalls significantly or fails with a 503 Service Unavailable error, specifically affecting the async-upload.php process.
Sometimes I add an image and when I open and close the page, I see that the image with the error has been loaded.
But these happen in the Newspaper theme. When I switch to the 2025 wordpress theme, images are uploaded instantly from the Media – Add Media – Media Library section without any problems.
After thorough debugging over the past 48 hours, I have tested and ruled out all other possible causes. Below is a complete breakdown of actions I took:
1. Hosting and Configuration
– PHP: 8.1
– Hosting: LiteSpeed / Shared Hosting (GuzelHosting)
– Limits Increased to:
– max_execution_time = 300
– upload_max_filesize = 128M
– post_max_size = 128M
– memory_limit = 512M
– Cloudflare set to “Development Mode”, and later fully paused
– WP Rocket and cache tools disabled during tests
2. Steps Taken & Results
– Switching to Twenty Twenty-Five theme resolves the issue instantly. Image uploads are fast and reliable.
– Activating Newspaper theme causes:
– Slow or failed uploads
– DevTools shows async-upload.php requests returning 503 errors
– Hosting panel shows CPU limit exceeded only when Newspaper is active
– Plugins tested individually (only Rank Math, SMTP, and Converter for Media were active; Converter later disabled)
3. Functions.php and Theme Code Review
– Output buffer using ob_start(“sanitize_output”) was temporarily removed.
– Theme update filters (pre_site_transient_update_themes) commented out.
– Admin-side JS injection via admin_head tested and removed.
These changes made little to no difference — the core issue seems to lie deeper in Newspaper’s admin/AJAX logic.
4. Attached Visual Evidence (8+ screenshots)
Please find attached:
1. DevTools console error (503 on async-upload.php) : https://prnt.sc/qHY-ahJWeCbr
2. CPanel CPU usage exceeded panel : https://prnt.sc/V4Wcb6RWVm8O
3. Functions.php sample (Attachments)
4. Theme switched: Twenty Twenty-Five (success) : https://prnt.sc/XsbBJDqxrBK_
5. Theme active: Newspaper (failure) : https://prnt.sc/3ORZ-qt9OwHj
6. WordPress debug.log output (Attachments)
7. Network panel XHR timing chart : https://prnt.sc/T1_rYdno5uaL
8. Cloudflare paused, issue persists : https://prnt.sc/CKQqSZ2OlLc-
I attach all other detailed screen photos to the e-mail. (20 attach picture screenshot)
Final Note & Request
I believe this issue can only be resolved from the theme side, not via hosting or plugin tweaks. I kindly request:
– Review of internal AJAX handling within the Newspaper theme
– Guidance on patching or disabling blocks that might interfere with admin upload requests
– Confirmation if this is a known issue, and whether an update will address it
I truly want this resolved. I have done my part as much as possible. Now I believe your team can take over and fix this properly.
I sent you contact@tagdiv.com e-mail in more detail. I would like to ask for your help in solving the problem.
Hi,
Unfortunately this can not be done on the same element because the option is not responsive, only options with a bar in front are responsive, like this one – https://i.imgur.com/0YslEhX.png
Now what you can do is to use a mobile page template – https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ when you’ll have the possibility to create and adjust mobile elements separate by desktop.
Thank you!
Thank you Calin, I’m gonna do that.
Regarding your notification thanks to the changelog, I was looking for it since a few months (and your screenshot doesn’t show where to find it).
Indeed, it was before easy to find through the link on Updates Tab of the plugin, but now this link always goes to your website homepage. Would you make sure the link to changelog is corrected for the next update ?
Otherwise, let me know where exactly to find it. Thank you.
Hello after all updates, latest wp version and latest theme version i see a message on my editor role account that the theme is inactive on domain.
Despite this, in my administrator account, i don’t see this message.
In the page of licence the theme is active on domain and assigned to it. (I see the same on the editor account and admin account). So the editor see in settings the theme active but in the wp-admin bar the red message.
I clicked refresh but nothing change.
Can you help me to solve it?
Thank you
Hi Emma,
I understand your concerns. However, it’s difficult to determine whether the issue you’re experiencing is due to an outdated theme or caused by a plugin conflict. These days, it’s common for both themes and plugins to have some vulnerabilities, which is why it’s important to take steps to protect your website proactively—using tools like Wordfence and Cloudflare is highly recommended.
What to Do Now:
Ensure you have a full backup of your website and database.
If possible, replace the core WordPress files, theme, and plugins with fresh, clean versions. Be sure to keep only files you know and trust. However, this process can be complex and might cause issues if not done carefully.
A simpler and safer approach is to update everything, including:
– WordPress core
– All plugins
– The theme
After updating, install Wordfence and run a full security scan. You can also scan your website with Sucuri SiteCheck here: https://sitecheck.sucuri.net/results/
Please note: we notify all our users whenever a new theme update is released. You can also review the update contents by checking the changelog here: – https://i.imgur.com/wSlH5Lr.png
Let me know if you need further help!
Thank you,
Hi,
I have just added one field in ACF and added that to the page via “Form Input” and selected the field from the dropdown. I have added the button “User Update Form Submit” and when I fill the field and submit the form, it is not taking the data.
Basically for a business directory, I am trying to create a form via ACF where users can submit details and edit the same from their account. The details submited by the users should be visible to public.
If required, I’ll share you the credentials to check where I am doing wrong and it will be of great help if you can guide me or help me in accomplishing the above.
Hi,
I updated wordpress and theme and now I can see webp in the source. I have Cloudflare in front for caching and waf purpouse. Lighthouse still does not see webp picture and give a low LCP rate. Why this?
Thanks

I’ve been building websites since 1995 and FTP has *always* been the best way to update themes due to various localized file permissions, folder ownerships, how WordPress was installed (eg., WP can behave differently if installed via Plesk panel, etc.); time outs on your system during updates causing missing file, unzip issues at server level, mix of old/new files in some cases if server/domain/site/wp does not first properly remove the old files prior to install new ones; caching issues (are you disabling cache prior to updating?) causing mixed content; conflicting plugins, etc.
Just giving some friendly advice from an elder webdev who has “seen it all” over the years and we run in paranoia mode over here.
Good luck! (I don’t work here; but have used Tagdiv products since they launched). Not meaning any insult or anything, just some friendly feedback.
Hi, my website has been hacked, I’ve noticed this morning that one of my pages has a redirection to some strange website (or 502 bad gateway, as per Safari error message). I’ve read on another request that there was a vulnerability issue on Newspaper V12.7 and the last update V12.7.1 has fixed it. I didn’t have installed the last update yet, so I assume the malware could have come from that vulnerability.
My questions are :
– Do you recommend to clean it first or to update Newspaper to V12.7.1 ?
– To remove the malware, do you have any info that could help ?
– When such vulnerability is suspected, why don’t you send an emailing to all your contacts that bought your template to tell them to update quickly to the new version ?
Thank you.
Emma
Hi,
You are using old theme version and old WordPress version so yes, there can be incompatibility.
I recommend to make a full backup for your website and database and update the WordPress and the theme. This should resolved the problems.
Thank you!
Hi,
Before updating the theme please make sure you have a full backup for your website. There are 2 ways you can update the theme:
1. Using the theme panel option from Newspaper > Updates and make sure that the theme plugins will also install and update if not install theme from Newspaper plugins (just check before the tagDiv plugins you are using).
2. Manually updating the theme using FTP and after that updating the theme plugins you are using from Newspaper > plugins (dashboard).
In your situation I think that the best method will be using FTP – https://i.imgur.com/DsUaFf9.png – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you!
Hi Lamiaa,
Indeed this is how is working the optin builder right now with the user email list.
This is because the the option form the builder is made to collect emails base on leads element – https://i.imgur.com/52YtJDo.png this element can be configurate to collect the emails in the list you want – https://i.imgur.com/rkLIla7.png – https://forum.tagdiv.com/leads/ but not when you update the plan.
Thank you!
I’m currently using 12.6.7 version. I use the Urban Outfitter Design. Whenever I update Newspaper it resets my design to Default, and I then have to use a backup to bring my design back to all my pages. I use a wide variety of different post templates and have hundreds of posts. How do I update my theme without completely resetting my Design?
Best way to do theme update is to always do so via FTP using un-zipped files; first on server deleting the td-composer plugin folder, and the theme folder; then uploading fresh copies, then going into the plugin manager in WP admin, and activate td composer. This is how we do it without any issues; running latest WP and PHP 8.3x. And, always make backups so you can roll back if you mess something up.
Hi,
Thank you for your message!
It seems there may be a small misunderstanding. You mentioned the latest version of the Newsmag theme (5.4.3.3), but the vulnerability link you provided ( https://wpscan.com/vulnerability/038327d0-568f-4011-9b7e-3da39e8b6aea) actually refers to the Newspaper theme. That particular issue was resolved over two years ago.
As for Newsmag, the most recent update was on May 8th, 2025, which addressed an XSS vulnerability. There was also a previous XSS-related update on April 1st, 2025. You can find more details here: Newsmag on ThemeForest.
In the file located at ./wp-content/themes/Newsmag/includes/tagdiv-config.php, there’s just a class with a few arrays, a switch statement, and some define code. From what I can see, there’s nothing in this file that would typically be accessible from the outside or pose a security risk. It’s not clear how this could be exploited or lead to a vulnerability.
If you’re still seeing any warnings or issues related to the theme, please send over a detailed report, and I’ll be happy to forward it to our development team for further investigation.
Thanks again, and I appreciate your attention to this!
