I am typing this to see if I royally screwed up.
I bought and installed the Newspaper theme 2 weeks ago. I uploaded the parent theme to my WordPress installation. I then zipped up the 2(?) files that were in the child folder and installed it as a child theme in my WordPress installation. It installed fine and I activated the child theme. I did all of my changes using that child theme. (It shows as Newspaper 7 child theme, although I had bought the Newspaper 9 theme.)
I am now looking at the forums here and see that people have trouble with child themes and perhaps shouldn’t be using them. I guess my questions are below…
Am I safe? Did I royally screw up my site by doing my setup on the child theme that I zipped up and installed? Or am I safe and with the next update, my parent theme will get updated and my site will get updated, with all of my customizations (setup) safe.
Thanks
Hi,

Thank you!
Ive just updated wordpress to the new version and began to have an issue with the WPBakery Block Text. When I try to edit some text in the page, the block text settings popup but the text field is blank and there is no option to edit the text. The General and Design Options also disappeared.
Do you know what should I do to solve this issue?
Hi,
We are trying do do our best and improve the theme as better we can; indeed there are some issues and those are on our fix list for the coming updates, sorry for the inconvenience!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello !
We are sorry for your inconvenience !
It is mandatory to delete all what was left from the older version before intalling this update. Overwriting the files would cause a lot of problems and maybe you’ve missed something while deleting the old files. Have you checked the plugins to be deleted too ? If you are certain that you have installed the updates correctly by deleting all of the older versions and made a clean install from scratch please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login, as well as cPanel or FTP if possible. We will take a look. Include a link to this topic in the email.
Also take a look at our documentation about installing the theme and plugins: https://tagdiv.com/how-to-install-plugins-and-update-plugins/ ; https://tagdiv.com/how-to-install-newspaper-theme/
Thank you !
Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion! At the moment, the theme does not have any such an option and functionality! If our developers will consider implementing this in future updates, it will be implemented, if not, will do not be implemented.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately there is no alternative at the moment. You will have to edit the plugin file and you will need to re-apply the customization after you update the theme/plugin.
Thank you!
Hello !
We are sorry for the inconvenince !
At the moment WP Bakery 6.0.2 works perfect. Our developers are working on adapting the new WP Bakery but untill then 6.0.3. won’t work. You can see what version of WP Bakery is compatible is with our updates by looking on the changelog.
Hope this was helpfull !
Thank you !
Updated theme to 9.7.3 from 9.6, now the the home pa=ge is broken. Whats could have gone wrong?
I have updated all the theme plugins etc.
Hi,
If you are using the mobile theme plugin, then this can be achieve only with custom work, sorry!
From what I know this option will be insert in our theme very soon, maybe in coming updates.
Thank you!
Thank you for the reply.
So, the second part of my question is correct, as well. We have to make changes to the theme itself, keep a record of them, and re-make them whenever the theme is updated.
I understand your team’s need to deal with Envato’s requirements, since that is your sales channel. But the loss of child themes is a major setback, in my opinion. I hope you find out a way to fix this in the future, either by reimplementing child themes or by adding some sort of functionality into the theme itself that allows customizations and then remembers them during theme updates.
Thanks!
Dear Calin,
OK. I have already done that. But I do not understand about Envato. Did Envato say the theme should be worse and some features should stop working? That does not quite reach me. I’m assuming that an update is always tested before publication. That has nothing to do with Envato. Envato has certainly not said that the login in Responsive should no longer work.
Ciao Rick
Hi,
You can downgrade to a previews version where this is working normally, the update to Newspaper 9.7 is all about the envato requirements, you can check the news and fix here section changelog.
If you need a previous version and you do not have it you can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and we’ll provide the version you need.
Thank you!
Hi,
The licence key for this account is on that name; if you have several licenses add your extra Envato keys to the existing account, you can check our documentation for this -> https://tagdiv.com/how-to-activate-the-newspaper-theme/
If this was a problem you can make a downgrade any time you want to a version that is working properly, and make the update only after problem is fix.
Also we recommend to make fires the update to a sub-domain or an test environment to see if everything is working properly.
Thank you for your understanding!
Forgotten to ask, how can i prevent by an update that the file would overwritten can i put it in my child theme?

I’ve updated to the latest version of Newspaper and now my custom code for rewriting ad div class doesn’t work anymore.
I want to rename the custom_ad_x part to custom_new_x and the code below used to work just fine in /wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/includes/shortcodes/td_block_ad_box.php in the function render_ads, line 1937
$buffy = ”;
$check_css_name = array(‘custom_ad_1’, ‘custom_ad_2’, ‘custom_ad_3’, ‘custom_ad_4’, ‘custom_ad_5’);
if (in_array($spot_id, $check_css_name)){ $spot_id = str_replace(“ad”, “new”, $spot_id); }
$buffy .= ‘<div class=”td-a-rec td-a-rec-id-‘ . $spot_id . $align . ‘ ‘
Any idea why the replace function isn’t working anymore, or how I could go about changing the output of the custom_ad css in ad boxes?
Hi,
Yes, was may mistake, I meant to say “can’t”, sorry!
This problem is note on our fix list and I think that in coming updates this problem will be solved.
Thank you!

I’m creating a new template using a blank template from tagdiv cloud for a single post.
I’ve checked that in the elements of cloud, haven’t a simple category name as text, just as a list of categories. It’s a problema that I will had to fix. I woul’d like to put the category name at the top of template, above the header, I don’t find how.
But in general is an excelent tool and after some hours I understanded how it work and it’s fine. But, I need an specifical structured data to use in this template, I see that the data generated by the plugin are in the folder […] plugin/state/single/tdb_state_single.php […] and, there are the meta’s of an Article scope.
How can I change or create a new file with the Schema that I need? I has to change the plugin file? If is it. I can had any problems when the plugin would be updated, right?
So, please help to clarify my mind.
Just to explain, I basicaly need to include some JSON codes in a script tag to create a markup in my posts.

Tks.
Hi,
Unfortunately that is the only place where you can set the code for Google Analyticsin our theme panel.
Setting the code in the Google Analytics -> https://www.screencast.com/t/2uIbdxQ6kCQ is like you set the code directly in theme files and the code will not be overwrite as in them file after each update.
Thank you!
Hi,
For the moment we can not estimate the time when the update will be released.
Thank you for your understanding!

Hello !
Correct ! Your updates will not affect your modification made into those tabs.
Thank you !
Newspaper does not work with the plugin WPBakery Page Builder version 6.0.3, and that’s too bad.
No matter how sad I used your theme for over 3 years and many clients were advised to buy this theme but for the last 2 updates did you kill your product in my eyes. I have never and no one will advise your Newspaper.
