Hello !
The staging website should not affect the plugins upload. You can manually install and update your plugins. Please take a look at our documentation here: https://tagdiv.com/how-to-install-plugins-and-update-plugins/
I hope this was helpfull !
Thank you !
Hello!
Yes! You will still be able to benefit from updates of the Newspaper Theme. The support is an additional option which allows you to receive help from the support team.
Thank you!
Hi,
1. Currently there is an issue like the one you mention, the post templates don’t apply properly when the child theme is active. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme for the time being. This problem will be fixed for the next theme update. Sorry for the inconvenience.
2. The tagDiv gallery can be used in Gutenberg, but through a classic element
– http://prntscr.com/o9dxum – http://prntscr.com/o9dyk9 – http://prntscr.com/o9dz2o
Please try it like this and it should work fine.
3. Custom post types will not have the same settings as default posts. They can’t use the same templates, settings etc. Before the recent updates it was possible to create a template for theme within a child theme, based on the predefined post templates (1->13). But now that is not possible anymore because the post template files were moved in the tagDiv composer plugin. We will try to find a solution in this matter.
There aren’t many settings for CPT and taxonomies, in the composer as well. Most of the options and settings are created to work with default posts and categories.
So having the same possibilities for CPT is not possible.
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Can’t say exactly. There are a few issues that have to be fixed and tested first, also including some very useful new features and options that will be added in the next update. The update will be released as soon as these tasks are finished, shouldn’t be long now if something unexpected doesn’t happen.
Sorry again for this inconvenience.
Hi,
Since Newspaper v9.7 the child theme is working only for the functions.php and style.css files.
We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
if you want you can try the implementation for the child theme provide by an user in this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/issue-with-9-7-update-changes-single_template_-in-child-theme/
Thank you for your understanding!
hi ^^
support period
When it expires
Is a supported update file available?
Can I get an update file?
Hello, I’m testing the new 9.7.3 update on a staging site and when I try to update the plugins it gives a message “unauthorized.” Is it because the staging site url is different than the live site’s url?
If so, what actions do I need to take to update the plugins so I can fully test the staging site before going live?
Hello support!
I solved other problems with plugin conflict but this one still persists: When attempting to edit content, this is what I get: Failed to load plugin url: https://defense-update.com/wp-admin/wpeditor.php?WLMTNMCEPlugin4=1
Hello Tagdiv.
We bought your theme “Newspaper”, but we are experiencing some issues.
1. Post template issue
We are using the demo “City news” (import with no changes) on the single post pages, we want to check the different options for “post template”
We expect that when we change the “post template” setting
http://take.ms/PdtHE
We expect to see this:
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/louge-music-reasons-why-in-form-leicester-city-will-finish/
Instead we see this:
http://take.ms/LbpIo (default something post temlate)
We have tried:
-Other server
-Different php versions (5.6 -> 7.2)
-New install of wp and theme
-New import of demo content for “city news”
-New import of demo content for the default white theme
-We even tried newsmag your sibling theme.
We have this issue for everything we tried.
Question: Do you know what is up here?
2. Gallery issue
We are trying to use: https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-slide-gallery/
But it seems it does not work properly. Instead of the “Slide gallery” then we get a “grid gallery”. The Gutenberg editor block, does not give us similar options as from link: https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-slide-gallery/ (http://take.ms/zRRjh) what we see is a grid: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LKrZiyj_bHCbrv5vxxHO1jGm1Cqnuc-h/view
There is no option to get the Slider instead of the grid, and we don’t find any other Gutenberg blocks where it was possible.
Question: Can you please help us to get the slider?
3. Problem with custom post type
Via the tutorial and documentation we used the plugin that was in the download package from the Newspaper to create a custom post type with custom taxonomies.
With that we expect to see:
A new custom posttype with two taxonomies, with same options at “post” have for the newspaper theme: http://take.ms/effsl (screenshot of “post” CPT) and the Gutenberg editor.
Instead we see:
Old editor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SghrUywCHrOX8PnCEVapiyynTLGSQG9V/view
And these options only: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kiaqlOIDNB2KT2TudDx6JwOk0dkA8lSR/view (Post setting block is completely missing)
Question: Kindly help to tell what we are doing wrong, and how can we get the options
Info:
We currently use PHP 7.2
We updated to the latest version of the theme 9.7.3

Thanks for helping.
Best regards. Lars

Kindly help.

Roughly when is that next update?
Hi
The child theme functionality has been broken since the update of the core for the Envato WordPress requirements. Can you please fix this? You can search fo “child” in the comments in the link below to see that a number of us depend on child themes for customization. I have pasted an excerpt from those comments below, in which I was advised to contact support.
Thanks

That doesn’t seem to be true, Catalin. Envato requires that the child theme “Consist of style.css, functions.php and screenshot.png files at a minimum” … but you’re not *disallowed* from including/supporting other files in the child theme.
Seriously, if you stop supporting child themes — where we can edit the single.php (or loop-single.php) file (for example), that decision will mark the day that Newspaper starts going downhill as a theme.
On https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000480723 Envato references https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/ … which says, “any file you add to your child theme will overwrite the same file in the parent theme” … but with the current version of your theme, this doesn’t work. Adding (and tweaking) the theme’s header.php file to the child theme does nothing.
BECAUSE YOU BROKEN THE CHILD THEME FUNCTIONALITY.
Your statement that “Envato … requires all functionality to be added through plugins” is, to be direct, false. Stop lying to us and once again provide full support for child themes. For the sake of your business, as well as ours.

Hi Ted,
Sorry for the inconvenience but please note that since theme update 9.7 most of the theme files have been moved in the tagDiv Composer plugin, as you can see in our informative article. Now, the child theme is limited to just a few files. This is a consequence of the recent modifications to the location of theme files, due to Envato requirements, sorry! Moving forward with such requirements, a child theme will only work with functions.php, and style.css, as there are very few files left in the main theme as Envato, requires all functionality to be added through plugins. The child theme inherits the look and feels of the parent theme and all of its functions. Where all the functionalities of the theme have been added into a plugin, the child theme no longer has what to get from the parent theme, sorry! The child theme is not a “child plugin”.
Thank you for your understanding!
Best regards!

I have to say I agree with Ted Slater’s comments. I didn’t research your claims, but it does seem unlikely that Envato would require theme developers to disable the Child theme functionality. Please find a solution so that the Child theme will function as it should.
Catalin L.Catalin L. June 26, 2019 at 8:11 am
Hi,
According to Envato Requirements, the child theme is not mandatory to be offered. Also, if this is provided by the theme author, must be checked the following requirements, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/JkRUP9LI -> https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000480723-WordPress-Theme-Feature-Requirements#h_5966589781211522283728890 which are valid.
Thank you for your understanding!

Hi Catalin,
You may not be required to supply a child theme but that does not mean it is acceptable to break the functionality should your users choose to use one.
Please see – https://forums.envato.com/t/is-child-theme-functionality-obsolete-with-the-new-theme-requirements/244151
“Envato requirements have no negative effect over child themes, quite opposite, they encourage you to follow the best standards which makes customization via a child theme much more easier as a result.”
It seems that you have completely misunderstood the Envato requirements.
Using child themes is a standard practice and a best practice that WP users rely on. Please find a solution so that the child theme will function as it should.

misc: We updated the WPBakery Page Builder plugin to the latest version.
fix: Single Image.
fix: Sibling categories.
fix: Various css fixes.
You can always find out what has been changed on our updates by going on our product here !
I hope this was helpfull !
Thank you !
I have an update alert for 9.7.3 but don’t see anything in the release notes here –> https://tagdiv.com/newspaper/
Thanks
Hi,
Did you recently update the theme to the latest version? If so, from what version did you update? Please make sure you update all the theme plugins.
Note that the 9,7 update was a major update, it consists of modifications to the theme file structure, most of the files are now in the tagDiv composer plugin. Here is an article about the changes made and why they were made – https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
From what I can see currently the mobile theme is not active, and the website works fine using the latest theme version 9.7.3. While there are some issues in this update, with the mobile theme there should be none. So it is unusual that in your case simply activating the mobile theme plugin is causing problems.
If you want us to take a look at this issue, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login, also cPanel. Please include a link to this topic in the email.
Regarding the multi-purpose plugin, this plugin was merged with the tagDiv composer quite a while back – http://prntscr.com/o8wi1l so please delete it. The changelog for each version can be seen at the bottom of this page
– https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609
Let us know.
Thanks
Hi,
It is the general modal image option in the theme panel post settings that causes it, we are aware of the issue. There have been other users mentioning the problem and we are investigating it. When this issue and others than had happened after the previous update will be fixed, a theme update will be released. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks
Hi,
Regarding the login/join not being displayed on mobile in the responsive version, there is unfortunately an issue currently in the theme. It happened after the previous update. We are sorry for the inconvenience, this issue will be fixed in the next theme update. Please let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi chiuaua,
Unfortunately, at the moment, the theme does not have any such an option that allows you to change the fonts on AMP, sorry! This option will be added in the near future updates!
Thank you!
Best regards!
Hi,
There is an issue currently, when the child theme is active the post templates won’t apply properly. For the time being it would be better to try and not use the child theme. This issue and a few others that happened after the 9.7.3 update will be fixed in the next theme update. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
If you have more questions let us know.
Thanks

Hello !
Unfortunately no, there is no option on changing the language of the Theme Panel. The only way you could is by editing all of themes files but that would be incredibly hard and you will have to do it after every update.
We are sorry for the inconvenience !
