Hello,
From information you provide it you have the latest version of WordPress, in order to be compatible you must also have the latest version of Newspaper.
You need to update the theme to the latest version 10.3.9.1, before please make a full backup to all files and the database, in case something goes wrong. => https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Let me know about your results.
Thank you!
Hi Calin,
after finish testing on a staging area I have found the very simple problem.
First I had updated the Theme, but without td-composer and td-social-counter. Then I got the error message and I wanted to solve this first . After updating both plugins it works fine.
Best regards
Andre
Hello !
Yes, we know about the messages that lighthouse provide when you test an website with our theme, and our developers have this in work. I think that in the coming updates it should be implemented. As a tip to fix the problem, for the links it need to set the aria-label=”” attribute and for label need to be use the for=”” attribute. For example on search, you need to go in wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/shortcodes/header/tdb_header_search.php and on line 1740 add the aria-label attribute like this -> https://www.screencast.com/t/iyvML1u00 also for elements with no accessibility (from login/register) you need to go in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/parts/register.php and add the for=”” attribute on line 50 like this https://www.screencast.com/t/w15eWCFCv
This is the quick fix that our developers want to implement it for the coming updates.
Hope this will help you in the meanwhile!
Let us know the result !
Thank you!
Hello @max!
Yes, you are right. You will have to change that file on every update because it will rewrite.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please check if you use the last version WordPress 5.6 with a last theme version Newspaper 10.3.9.1 and check to see if the problem persists.
If you need to make an update, before please make a full backup to all files and the database, in case something goes wrong. => https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Let me know about your results.
Thank you!
Hello!
Please do a backup and an update for the theme and plugins.
Make sure that all the requirements are met as you can see here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ ;
Please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using child theme or cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.

When creating my website, I used the default Cloud Templates to customize my pages, such as article layouts, author pages, etc. Now, when I go to Cloud Templates, they have all disappeared. I did not delete them and the other people who have access to them have also not deleted them. My website still works as it used to, but if I wanted to update a page, I cannot do that without having to build a whole new template. Any suggestions on recovering these?
I am having the same issue here. I have followed all of the instructions in this thread and still cannot update the theme. I reactivated the theme by re-inputting the license key and it still says “Sorry, you are not allowed…”
Trying to update from 10.3.4 to 10.3.9.1
Update: I’ve reached ExactMetrics Plugin support – they told me – it’s ok with settings.
Hi
NB! I had a WPBakery plugin installed but not activated. I deleted the plugin and the vulnerability went away. The built in version into Newspaper works fine and gives no security problem.
ManageWP is showing a Vulnerability problem. Gives this message.
WPBakery Visual Composer v4.11.2
WPBakery Page Builder < 6.4.1 – Authenticated Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
I have updated the Newspaper theme to 10.3.9.1 in the backend of WordPress and expected WPBakery to also be updated to a version that does not contain a vulnerability problem.
When do you plan on updating WPBakery?
It is updated along with the theme.

If I modify the td_wp_booster functions.php every update I have to fix it right?
Hello!
Weird! This should be working well. The issue can be from a plugin conflict, that’s why, please deactivate ALL plugins except tagDiv ones, also if you are using cache plugin, deactivate them, clear all cache and try again.
Also, try to update our theme and plugins.
Hope that helps you!
Thank you!
Hello!
At the moment our team is still testing to make sure that everything is on point. Normally there should be no problem but if you want to update to php 8.0 please make sure to have a backup.
Thank you!
Oh, believe me: it’s very normal for you guys to leave costumers websites with issues… I have two open topics that I asked for a fix and did not receive it (the “fix” proposed to me was to wait for the developers to fix it..)
For that reason I am not willing to fix the slide element bug for now, as I’ll wait for an upcoming update to try this element again… I am not in the mood to engage in a conversation trying to solve an issue, to, one week later, receive an answer like that: “I have passed this topic to our developers and they will take a look at improving the theme in the next updates.” or “I have checked and this seems to be on our developers to do list.“, as seen here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/avoid-non-composited-animations/
And, trying to receive an answer for the question I asked, I’ll reformulate it:
I am willing to put a slider in my homepage, but I don’t know where to begin… What are my options to achieve that, either via TD Composer blocks, TD Cloud elements, or external plugins?
Thank you!
Hello!
Sure I can provide the screenshots.
Here goes the ones I found in the Default Pro Demo (https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_pro/) of yours:
The overall analysis of the demo: https://paste.pics/BEFPT
The background contrast issue: https://paste.pics/BEFQI
The button issue: https://paste.pics/BEFQ2
The form issue: https://paste.pics/BEFQ8
The links issue: https://paste.pics/BEFQG
I don’t know what was not clear in my post, but testing the Accessibility is a well known form of evaluation of a website (included in Lighthouse auditions).
It’s not a problem of my site, but of the theme, as you can see in the Demo and screenshots I posted.
So, I ask again: do this issues have a fix? Is there any plan to implement a fix for this issues in a near future update, or can I do these fixes mannually?
Hello,
after I have updated from Newsmag 4.9.5 to 4.9.6 I got an error on my website android-user.de:
“There has been a critical error on your website”
By switching back to the old version 4.9.5 the error occurs anyway. I must be restore the database from a backup, that the website works again.
First I tried the update over the update button. The second try was by copying the theme manually to the server. Both don’t works in my case.
Do you have an idea whats wrong?

Hello !
Once you have updated your main theme to Newspaper 10.3.9.1 you will have to create the child theme again. You cannot use the old files because a lot of paths and files are changed.
Thank you !
Hello,
For increase speed, you can use the mobile theme plugin. you’ll gain a better speed then responsive version of the theme, but in order to achieve that speed you’ll need to create a new content for pages because in the most of cases those were made with builders or shortcodes ( tagDiv Composer, WPBakery ) and you need to use only the mobile editor ( you need to set the content for pages in the mobile editor and this content will be display on the mobile theme, also the mobile theme will not display any sidebar)
-> https://i.imgur.com/9d0UWLT.png
When you install Mobile Theme plugin, your pages on mobile will be overwritten by the plugin.
The Mobile Theme is a performance optimized theme included in the Newspaper main theme and it loads only for mobile devices. It comes with its own templates for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout.
Also, we have the option mobile page -> https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ this option is to can create mobile pages using tagDiv Composer, also now this option is availed to create cloud templates for the mobile theme too, to can set the layout you want to a mobile website.
Hope this helps you!
Thank you!
Hi Reference to the subject, please advise how can I set these dynamic pages so they can an auto update and we don’t have to pose the input everyday. Our purpose is Google AdSense. Please guide.
The Newspaper theme you guys have built is excellent in so many ways. But one real shortcoming is the difficulty in making custom page types. For example, with the current proliferation of fake news, most news aggregators, (Facebook included), expect news orgs to have at least 10 additional pages that cover ethics, ownerships, masthead, public policy, corrections, etc.
But Newspaper theme in its current state, provides no template for creating custom page types. So I have to create a cloud template, write the info into a column text box, optimize by screen size, copy the entire code to a new page, then copy the column text into the mobile editor and optimize everything for AMP. None of this can be done in Gutenberg and just saved as a custom page type.
With the critical nature of these additional pages in today’s media ecosystem, future newspaper updates should include a “policies” custom and page type/taxonomy.
I have updated newspaper theme and currently php 7.4 can I update my to php 8.
Thanks
Please update
Hi-
Today, my dev recently updated the website URL associated with our Newspaper theme. Now, I cannot seem to edit elements/rows/columns on the actual page like I was able to before. (This update was the only thing that changed today.)
There was a tagDiv edit tab at the top of the page that I could use to bring up an editing sidebar, but that tab has disappeared. How do I get that back?
Thanks!
Hi,
The can be more errors because the version that you updated is very old.
But to make sure that the theme update is done correctly, please disable all plugins, delete theme and theme plugins and install it again (install the theme via FTP) then install the theme plugins from Newsmag > Welcome. Also if you use child theme please disable it.
Let me know the results!
Hello,
Usually, this message error appears when you use an old theme version and the theme API for Instagram is no longer available.
This problem can be solved by updating the theme.
Before to update, make a full backup to all files and the database, in case something goes wrong.
Also, make sure you set the Instagram like in this guide -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/instagram-widget/
Let me know about your results!
Thank you!
