Hello team,
The new update significantly improves loading times, but leaves the TagDiv composer completely unusable as you can see in the following video https://www.loom.com/share/bdd170f74a28424b848ea0856fdda96c
As you can see, I have gone from the previous version (10.3.9.1) where it works to this new one where the composer stops working. Logically, it does not let me change anything or configure, or delete elements, etc.
I hope your help, regards
@amanda:
shure, it is easy:
in admin panel: newspaper > welcome > updates
below, where you see “newspaper time machine”
then you choose the version you are shure worked well
then “install version”
ps: it is possible to find very little differences from before update, but in few minutes you have same site of before
Damn I was wrapping my head around the issues I’ve faced after the update. Thank god I’ve found this post, reverting to 10.3.9.1 fixed it for me.
Please test your updates before sending them live…
Hi,
Indeed the last theme update has few bugs that our developers will fix soon. Also, after tests that we made for our live demos, we get a good score https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_pro/ , but the page speed is not related only to the theme that you are using, this is affected by plugins/content/ads/ external resources, etc.
If you facing a specific problem with our theme, we like to investigate it to make the theme better.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello, i have two questions for new tagDiv CSS Analyzer.
1.) I used it and it hang on Point 32. >> https://nimb.ws/dWQKxu
I know its a beta. But perhaps you know how i can fix that issue.
2.) Is this only a Statistic for me as Webmaster? Or is it usefull to click the “tagDiv CSS Analyzer”-Button at the top after every changes?
Thanks for that great Newspaper Update!!!
Hi Tagdiv Team,
since latest update the social sharing icons on the mobile page are gone.
I can still click them, but they are hidden or just complete white.
On the desktop version everything is normal.

Any suggestions?
Thank you in advance.
upgraded to 10.4 and everything worked. Loading was also improved better with the CSS selector. Unfortunately I had to go back to 10.391 because the AMP pages were giving so many errors. Having had to install the WP AMP PLUGIN together with the MOBILE (before I only had the second to travel light and it worked very well) the graphics had changed and the pages had many errors. I tried to clear cache, plug in put and remove plugins but nothing changed. Even in the end the mobile PLUg had disappeared, despite the fact that from the plugin page it gave me activated there was no longer even the option in the theme panel : “MOBILE” disappear… . then new system with AMP with uglier graphics, anonymous, in a broken page and full of errors. I hope it settles soon because the new update was terrific as a loading improvement (from 15 to 55 mobile, from 60 to 96 desktops) doing nothing. Thank you
I install a clone for myself on my computer. And the error is also present. When I went back to the previous version of the theme the problem is no longer there. but it can also mean that there is a bug. A bug we do not see or quite simply I cannot update. 🙁
Hello,
This a guide on how to do the update, but before please make a full backup to all files and the database, in case something goes wrong and follow this guide from point A=> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Also, I recommend that you make the update on a subdomain or staging, not directly on the live website.
Thank you!
Hello,
So 10.4 initially broke with plugins unable to update. So I performed the manual update of the plugins per your documentation and got the site looking right. Or so I thought.
All seemed fine until I check the BuddyPress and BBPress pages, where the global styling is completely broken, colours are missing, your own social counter is totally broken.
I noticed that you’ve made changes to the style-bbpress.css and style-buddypress.css. Since I was running child-theme overrides for these. I took a long look and in the end, copied over the files from the 10.3.9.1 -> 10.4 file changes folder. To clear the bugs and then rework the colours/styles, I’ve ensured these are getting enqueued and still it’s totally broken.
I’ve ensured Cloudflare cache is cleared and in developer mode, not running server cache and ensured browser cache is cleared in development view.
Clearly, something is broken with 10.4 with respect to BBPress and BuddyPress pages.
How colours should look:

How it’s broken:

Firstly, well done on the 10.4 update; upgrade went smoothly and pagespeed scores are excellent.
Before the Cloud Templates I would copy single.php into a child theme to allow me to add PHP code to the template. Is this possible with the Cloud Templates?
I use template_redirect action to call in a single.php file currently as there are dynamically generated pages from a database.

Hello,
I was happy with the Newspaper 10 theme, but since my recent purchase I’ve been having some technical issues with the theme. My sidebar is not displaying on the post page using the PRO templates; this issue is described in this page in the forum https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/sidebar-not-displaying-in-post-page/.
Furthermore, when I scroll either up or down normally on my single post page, the theme is displaying broken shortcodes on the screen during the scroll, and these then disappear after I have finished scrolling. I wish to work through this, but on this project I don’t have the time for that.
Additionally, I was hoping that the most recent update (10.4) would help me a lot with site speed, but it just has not brought the website load time increases I was expecting. I’m using CDN caching, minification of HTML and Javascript, next-gen image formats, pre-loading fonts, lazy loading images and ads, pre-connecting origins, and reducing CPU intensive tasks and core Jquery feature pre-load with a paid plugin, but Newspaper theme is just not bringing the site speed I wish for.As you can see, I’m implementing a lot of optimal site-speed increasing measures but the theme is not helping me.
I was temporarily happy with theme, as it looks good, and I really wish it would have worked for me, but at the moment I have to pass on the theme. I have already sent the refund request through Envato market, please approve it at your earliest convenience.
Hi
The 10.4 update produces a “Critical error” when updating plugins (2X) and has forced a restore from the backup twice. Please advise.
Hello,
Did you use tagDiv CSS Analyzer? if yes, then please remove Generated CSS => https://www.screencast.com/t/eQXchySxtxE, to solve the problem for social networks, and if those pages are category/tag pages and are empty (there aren’t posts in category/tag), then is it a problem (our developers are working to provide a fix for this problem), but if you have posts in those pages it should not be a problem.
Thank you for your understanding!
after update some pages have error … how can I do …
header bar not working properly
Just ran the update. Not checked much aside from page load speeds, minuscule improvement. The TagDivComposer no longer loads, so as expected, have to uninstall.
We’re running London News Pro, Standard plugin disabled. The server is set up as follows.
PHP Version 7.4.15
WP Memory Limit 512 MB
PHP Execution Time 1500
PHP Max Input Vars 2000
Each day, over the course of the last few weeks, more and more pages from our site fail the Search Console test, we now have over 400 listed with ridiculously slow load times. This is entirely the fault of the theme, we’ve tried everything else to resolve this with no joy. The theme is just too code-heavy and isn’t elegant. Advertising it as fast is clearly misleading. It is anything but.
I have create new sub-categories but when it is not show on sub-menu. How to show updated sub-categories in sub-menu?
Hello team,
These are the steps I have performed on a test site I have. With CSS analyzer, but I think that I have not done something right, because I can not appreciate great benefits.
Step 1: Deactivate the cache plugin (important, with the cache plugin activated, CSS analyzer gives problems).
Step 2: Login to WP-admin in a Chrome browser
Step 3: Double click on CSS Analyzer

Step 4: Click on “Analyze CSS”.

Step 5: Wait for the program to finish (this will take a few minutes).

Step 6: Save changes.

Step 7: Activate the cache plugin.
Step 8: Empty all the cache (important).
Wait a few minutes for the cache to regenerate and test the results:

And with GPS

The truth is that it has not improved much.
My question is: Am I doing something wrong and how can I get better results?
Another question: I see that the homepage is optimized on desktop, does the CSS Analyzer works also for the mobile version? And for the posts?
Thank you team for this update, it really looks amazing, I know it will be exceptional. I just don’t think I know how to use it properly at the moment.
