Just to update, we are using a Child Theme with the Standard Pack plugin running latest version of Newspaper theme.
Hello !
If you are using a higher version than 10.3.0 you will be able to see this option: https://www.screencast.com/t/2VWVZkxhT which shows you the new versions available.
If not you will have to manually update to the latest version.
Thank you !
Thank you. I have now done this on my sites and back to normal. I will wait to do the WordPress 5.6 update.
Dear Tagdiv
Could you please provide a definitive answer on when this issue will be resolved? We run a big site on the Medical theme and use the standard plugin. Suggesting we change to a pro theme on a live site isn’t a solution unless you are offering to redo pages and pages of different templates we have built.
Our page loads speed nearly trebled after installing 10.3.8 and the new update hasn’t resolved this. It is costing us on Google and I am certain that most of your other customers are facing a similar situation. We now experience page loads of up to 13s on some pages.
If you have an alternative workaround in the meantime that is actually practical, please share it and I don’t mean caching and minifying scripts. It doesn’t impact the issue. Alternatively, I’d like a definitive answer on how long this will take to resolve. Obviously, if you continue selling this product as is, you are selling a defective product to the public, as it will seriously compromise any website that uses your older templates. Lightweight and speedy is all that counts today.
I would also recommend strongly that you send out a notification to all your customers about the issue, rather than leaving them running about in the dark trying to figure out why their sites are suddenly so resource intensive and slow to load.
I look forward to your response.
Regards

Hi there at tagdiv,
Since the latest update to version 10.3.9 the button for tagdiv composer disappeared when I want to edit a page.
I get the blockeditor, but am missing the blue button to switch to tagdiv composer for layout (see below screenshot). Is there a solution for this? Or is this an issue after today’s update of WordPress itself to version 5.6?

Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance for your eforts.

Honestly, I would avoid wasting any more of your time and rather put pressure on tagDiv to sort it out. Until it’s fixed, they are selling an oxcart for a theme, snails could pass it, and they are aware of that. Their entire catalog of older templates that rely on the plugin is effectively useless. You cant use them and if you have, then you have a serious problem. Like we do. Telling us to switch to a Pro theme is an impractical copout.
Be interesting to see how they respond and if they do in fact issue a warning to their new customers about this issue and notify existing customers rather than leave them in the dark and struggling like idiots.
If you’re going to try the rollback I’d only suggest it if you haven’t updated to the latest WordPress. Backup your database and then just rollback. If it bombs, you can often recover by reinstalling the newer version and manually activating the theme plugins from the theme pages.
Since updating newspaper theme to 10.3.9 (WordPress 5.6) I have no featured images showing on homepage on PC (seems OK on phone)
The problem with mobile menu loading fixed automatically;
This could be due to the latest update of newspaper theme,
Thanks for the support.
Fkvs, You can put it on a rocketship, it isn’t going to make the slightest difference, trust me, we have tried pretty much everything. It’s a scripting issue that arose with 10.3.8 and they still haven’t resolved it. It simply kills the page load speed when the page is served and you can minify all you like, move things to the footer, it still sucks.
Some of our pages, the front page included are now taking between 5 and 9s to render, depending on how we optimize. It’s an issue Tagdiv needs to resolve and they’ll have to backtrack to see what they did in the November update that stuffed things up. A solution is possibly trying to roll back to release 10.3.7 but that also now has issues thanks to Woocommerce.
I am also experiencing a massive slow down site-wide since the November update. My site flipped overnight to all our pages failing on Google console, all thanks to the upgrade. This is clearly a development issue on your end guys, please fix it. It’s unfair to expect your customers to resolve this with workarounds and the new update hasn’t addressed it, in fact, it now seems worse.
We have a large site running on Newspaper and we are going to be seriously pissed if we have to take it down to change templates.
How long is this going to take to resolve as it is affecting our rankings on Google and I am sure many of your other customers are wasting time trying to resolve it. Clearly, it’s a known issue you should be advising customers about.
Sorry, but I am seriously pissed off at this point. We have wasted hours trying to optimize code to resolve this. Please let me know when you expect this to be fixed.

Dear support team
I’ve just upgraded wordpress and now post template style 7 ist not working, not showing the featured image.
for example: https://www.planet-mexiko.com/mexiko-stadt/paseo-reforma/
Besides the element “slide” from the tagdiv composer is malfunctioning.
for example: https://www.planet-mexiko.com/mexiko-stadt/
Any tipps? Thank you.
Hi thalesbrandao, normal this need to be compatible with WordPress too, https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/ as I can see here, the minimal requirements results that it should work. But before any update please make a full backup.
Thank you!

Just updated my theme to 10.3.9 but I can’t click on the options of Theme panel.

Also the theme panel doesnt swith from tab. This is all happening after the update. I cannot even revert to the old one as when i click on install update (older verison) nothing happens
Hi, for some reason after the latest update of newspaper (10.3.9) i cant change anythning on 2 of the other multisites. the key is missing and it says UNREGISTER

Hello Amit,
thank you for your great work!
I read through your article (https://www.infophilic.com/get-almost-100-pagespeed-newspaper-theme/) and did a few things.
But I also have a few questions.
But first a question, why I came across this topic at all:
In the first miliseconds of the loading process of my website a different font flashes. This is extremely annoying. Do you know how to prevent this?
Look here: modusx.de (Screenshot: https://nimb.ws/TBdEAD)
1.) Have you ever tested WP fastest Cache? What is your experience with it? Especially compared to WP Super Cache.
2.) You say that Cloudflare can be used.
Is the free version useful here too?
3.) What is your experience with Gzip? Is it possible that Newspaper-Theme does not work with GZIP?
4.) By activating plugins my database has grown a lot. In my database there is a lot of data about plugins which I don’t use anymore. Does a large database damage the loading speed?
5.) A question about the part “Removing Font Awesome”. With the code snippet only the essential icons are loaded. But which icons are essential? All the ones I select in the theme?
6.) You write that there is also a funcion.php for the mobile theme.
Is it possible to overwrite it with a child theme or do you have to add new entries after every update?
For example: Removing Emojis, Removing Font Awesome or Preload Newspaper fonts.
7.) There are several ways to add custom CSS.
Where do you think it makes the most sense? In the Theme Panel under Custom Code? Or rather under WordPress Design > Customizer?
I look forward to an answer from you.
Best regards
Patrick
I have to add a Mailchimp script before the </head> but every time I do that, it says it can’t connect to the site and crashes all the file leaving it completely empty. To fix I have to update the theme. But if I try to include the script again, it will crash again and again and again….
Anyone knows what should I do? Thank you
Hello, I have a problem. Every time I try to update or publish a post it will take so much time. When I deactivate the theme everything is ok. Can you help me?
