Months ago I created a travel website, DiscoverTraveloftheWorld.com, with two “nested” websites, DiscoverTraveltoMexico.com and DiscoverTraveltoPanama.com, all using the Newspaper theme. I have just migrated all of my sites to a new hosting company and all are fine including DiscoverTraveltoMexico.com, but not DiscoverTraveloftheWorld.com, which is coming up with a strange error. For any theme or plugin updates I would normally need to login to the main site, then click on the “nested” sites to run the updates. Now without being able to login to the main site I am lost. My hosting for this main site expires in two days so I am panicking that I am going to lose everything. Appreciate any help.
Thank you. I now have a staging site. However, I’m wondering what is the best way to transfer data back and forth from my primary site to the staging site and vice versa? Our primary site is frequently updated with new articles and small changes, such as new subscribers. How can I keep the staging area up to date with the primary site changes, then add those changes to the primary site with minimal loss?
Hello,
1. Yes, you can add the logo more near to the menu, but you need to set the row layout like this -> https://i.imgur.com/DMqn02Y.jpeg and stretch row https://i.imgur.com/29Aet0y.jpeg You can not delete the empty column, only the row that contains empty columns.
If you want to delete a row, you can delete a row with the empty column using the right click on the row icon -> https://i.imgur.com/JodWvlW.png -> https://i.imgur.com/e6bb8U5.png or using the drag and drop or you can simply click on the row and press the delete button from your keyboard -> https://www.screencast.com/t/Mai7iyEG The same steps are to delete the elements.
2. Please disable the mobile theme and amp plugins.
Using our theme, you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/ The option that you need to use.
Suppose you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer. In that case, when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc, so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY.
So, the mobile responsive is what you see when that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
The Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edit with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin cannot.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page, you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
3. Format need to be MP4, File size for embedded video should ideally be 500KB, as the ideal page size from Google’s standpoint is <1MB. File size of 1-2MB is acceptable.
Video duration should be no longer than 25 seconds.
4. You need to use a plugin that provides this option. Please check our guide -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-theme-translations-together-wpml/
5. The images are responsive; please let me know what you mean.
6. I recommend using the WP ROCKET plugin.
Also, we don’t recommend to using amp, because it is deprecated -> https://developer.bigcommerce.com/docs/storefront/wordpress/platform-integration/enabling-amp
There are many optimization guides provided by our users here in the forum, some made by us; you could check some of them

7. I recommend using Duplicator plugin, but you can try other plugins from this list -> https://www.bluehost.com/blog/best-wordpress-backup-plugins/
8. Usually, the color and image are set on the row, so please edit with tagDiv Composer and select the row and go in the tab CSS, and there you can set it https://i.imgur.com/IkbGWUS.png -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/background-color-of-the-main-menu-be-changed/
Thank you!
Hello,
Yes, we will make some changes in the future updates for version 8.3; but it also depends on WordPress and what plugins you have if those support version 8.3
Thank you!
Since the last two updates I can’t see images when I’m in admin or wordpress editor mode.
The images are visible when browsing the site without being logged in.
I had to resort to using Popup Marker but would prefer to use Newspapers Modal Popup with the ACF custom Field shortcode. If there is a way to do it so I don’t need to use a plugin just to have the contents of the custom field show in the light box pop up please let me know. If it requires a work around like adding some code in the child theme’s functions.php that’s fine. Though if that is the case you might consider making shortcodes work in the Modal Popup in a future update.
System status are all green, latest updates all plugins, test it out same results, deactivated all plugins except the tagdivs same results,
use the cache plugin only that you suggest in the system status same results,
Never faced this issue with the same themes on other domains, but domain in the same hosting server too.
Thanks
Hi,
I would have to create dozens of menus can’t be done plus I would have to update the menus every time I add an article.
But since your template is seo optimized and the structure <ul ><li >< /li >< /ul > is very important. You could implement it in a next update.
Thank you
Hello!
We have 3 options available for mobile versions that you can use:
1. Responsive version: A responsive version of your website looks similar to the desktop version. TagDiv Composer is used to edit the page.Click on the mobile viewport: https://www.screencast.com/t/XDQJedlggSB. There, you can see your mobile version and edit or adjust the elements to look better.
2. Mobile pages: https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages
3. Mobile theme plugin: The Mobile Theme is a performance-optimized theme included in the main Newspaper theme that only loads on mobile devices. It comes with its own templates and designs for pages, posts, categories, etc., so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout. Please see https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ and https://forum.tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-introduction/ for more information.
A full explanation is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
If you need to use mobile version 1 or 2, then you need to uninstall the Mobile Theme plugin and AMP.
Thank you!
Hi,
This usually happens with cache plugins. If the cache plugin does not have mobile support, the mobile theme version can be delivered instead.
Also, please let me know what plugin you use for the cache now.
Using our theme, you can choose from 3 mobile versions

@henryekeocha108 You need to add the Single Post Comments element in the single post template, and also, you have set to allow the comments on the posts, edit the post and in a post is a setting -> Discussion => https://www.screencast.com/t/EZhoy8Uj -> https://i.imgur.com/IgNyFa9.png
Thank you!
Hello!
Make sure you use the latest update of the theme and plugins, WordPress and PHP version.
Make a test and deactivate all plugins except tagDiv ones. Also, if you are using a cache plugin, deactivate it, clear all cache, and try again.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
I think they posted link to updated version here for somebody else last week – possibly do search while waiting for support reply 🙂
I want to update the WP Bakery Composer plugin, but the files are not found in the newspaper installation folder (js composer).

For a few days now, our website has been experiencing high CPU consumption on the VPS due to certain processes that generate high load on the CPU, such as when the editor processes entries or publications.
In other forums I have seen comments about this same case but they have not provided any solution.
VPS CPU loads to 100% when using Gutenberg editor in WordPress with Theme News Paper installed
– The Theme News Paper is updated
– The website goes through Cloudflare
– You have installed the Wprocket Plugin
– VPS 4 Core – 8 GbRAM
thanks for your help
Hello,
After an update the theme panel “save settings” button doesn’t seem to work.
The work in progress animation keeps on playing but nothing happens even after 10 minutes…
tried on both chrome and Firefox.
Can you please help?
Dear Anamaria,
Thank you very much for your prompt response. It seems I didn’t fully convey my thoughts. I am sending a link to a video that is a few seconds long to make it clear what I am writing about (pls look on the site logo and/or subscribe button to understand what I mean). (Recording Video)
When switching between menus, the site jerks (like shaking), which is not OK and normal situation for pages loading process. This situation is repeated on your prebuild templates as well as on the already implemented sites of your clients. Also such jerks happen when clicking other links on the website and using it, not just menus. In my opinion, and based on examples from other resources, there should not be such jerks when updating pages. Therefore, I ask you to advise please how to resolve this so that page updates happen without the jerks, which is not OK for positive user experience.
Thank you in advance for your response and help!
Best regards,
Yuriy

Hello!
1. Check this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/modal-popup/
For customization and other services, you can contact our custom work team here: https://tagdiv.com/premium-customization-services/.
2. I think you should add the style as well in the raw html or raw CSS. A shortcode can be inserted also by using the element called “Column text” or “Text with title”. “Column text” and “text with title” elements have a button called “edit content” and if you click on that button, the WP Editor will open, and you can add some text/code/shortcode there. Close the WP Editor from X, save the changes from Composer and view the page to see the changes. It could be possible to be a conflict there, that’s why the shortcode do not display as you want. Please check.
3. You should build it to be responsive from the plugin source. Or you can use some CSS style added with the help of a raw CSS element from the tagdiv Composer. Check the guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/

Hello,
You need to update the theme to version 12.6.6; you should download the latest version of it from the Theme Forest account and download it.
I recommend that you update the theme manually (https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/) via FTP/cPanel/File Manager. If possible, disable extra plugins during the theme update to avoid any problems that may arise. Also, make sure that you have activated the tagDiv Standard pack plugin to keep the website’s look. You can try to update the theme on a staging website.
After you update the theme, you must also update the theme plugins.
In the worst cases, the settings in the theme panel may be lost (there have been isolated cases), in these cases, after the theme plugins that were previously used are activated, you will have to use a backup for the theme panel -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-export-theme-settings/
If you want, you can contact our custom work team here, and they can help you update the theme safely: https://tagdiv.com/premium-customization-services/
Thank you!
My JetPack security scan revealed a vulnerability in TagDiv Composer 4.8 plugin which I purchased as part of my Newspaper theme. Where can I find the updated 4.9 plugin, where this issue is fixed?
Good day!
I still want to return to my question, specifically about the page jumps (you can look at the video in my first post above, or on any example of your templates or already launched websites). In particular, when navigating through the menu, the page updates and there is a jump, meaning the update is not comfortable to perceive. This can even be seen on the implemented resources you demonstrate, for example, https://theprint.in/ and other websites made with your theme.
Can this jump and flickering be fixed, and how can it be done?
This is very important to me.
Hello development team!
Thank you for the new update Newsmag 5.4.3. Perhaps the following points could be included in the next update:
1. In addition to ‘Related Articles’, the post also includes ‘More From Author’. This display (‘More From Author’) should be able to be hidden or deselected. The option ‘Show Author Box’ in post settings is deactivated – but if it is responsible for it, it doesn’t seem to work. 2. Why is the ‘tagDiv Cloud Library’ plugin missing from Newsmag, which is included with Newspaper? 3. I use ‘Style 5’ as the post template. However, the header image is not shown across the board – there is always a wide gray border on the right, which looks unsightly (e.g. my page/post https://www.hundenachrichten.de/fellwechsel-bei-hunden-20249164.html). 4. Slider post template ‘Style 5’ with header image is not displayed on mobile phones – error: Slider could not be loaded. 5. Image Lightbox: Here the image description is not displayed under the image in the lightbox (see same page as above), which is partly important because I enter the copyright for the image there, for example. It would be good if this worked like other lightboxes. 6. Newsmag for PHP 8.x
Many greetings from Germany
Stefan Richter
You can have access to the latest build by downloading the new release of theme update 12.6.6 (it’s included)
