Hello Mayapur Voice,
I suppose that you are referring to the appearance of a flash when you enter on your website…firstly is loaded a style and then will appear another style, right? This behaviour appears when you have additional customization through custom CSS code and when you are using the speed booster. Please notice that the CSS are working in cascade and the first time will take the code from style.css that is set it by default and then the theme will take the custom code that you have changed from Theme panel and practically this flash is generated by this cause. As a workaround, you have to check your style.css and try to add directly in this file your desired custom code.
Hope this helps!
Thanks.
Once in a while I have noted that when the net is slow our website loads first with default theme color (light blue) and then changes it to the color set in the theme panel using custom css code. I would like to know where to change this default setting so that the site doesn’t have to switch the color and can directly load preferred color. My hope is, this can improve the page load speed a little bit.
I had a look at your website and there seem to be a number of problems.
First off, it takes ages to resolve your hostname, 32 seconds!
The page size is 5,4 MB, e.g. just this GIF-image alone is 2,6 MB in size:
http://crowdink.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/smallgif.gif.
You could reduce number of articles/sections displayed on the front-page
Reducing the number of ads would also be helpful – people are not going to see the advertising if the website is so slow.
What I would do:
-check your server setup (maybe your dns is misconfigured) or use a better host
-use a caching plugin
-remove the ads (to see how much speed you gain)
-remove the gif image
-reduce the number of ads
Hi.
Google recommend me to delete jquery.js file https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=myformat.club&tab=mobile to make website loading faster on mobile?
What I need to do to optimize?
Hello Voice,
Unfortunately, we do not have an accurate response in this regard, because the page speed it depends on each website. Please notice that our theme comes with a big improvement for the mobile theme which is very basic, clear and faster that the old version of responsive mobile, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/W3fKAZ38Blu For more information about mobile theme, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ Also, if you want to know which are improvements in Newspaper 7, you will have to consult our changelog from this link -> http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609 (scroll down on the bottom of the page).
Thanks for your understanding!

( WP Super Cache Warning!
Your server is configured to show files and directories, which may expose sensitive data such as login cookies to attackers in the cache directories. That has been fixed by adding a file named index.html to each directory. If you use PHP or legacy caching, consider moving the location of the cache directory on the Advanced Settings page.
If you just installed WP Super Cache for the first time, you can dismiss this message. Otherwise, you should probably refresh the login cookies of all logged in WordPress users here by clicking the logout link below.
The logout link will log out all WordPress users on this site except you. Your authentication cookie will be updated, but you will not be logged out.
Please let me know soon as possible thanks

Hello adnan,
I have checked your website and I saw the effect. I suppose that you are referring to the appearance of a flash when you enter on your website…firstly is loaded a style and then will appear another style, right? This behaviour appears when you have additional customization through custom CSS code and when you are using the speed booster. Please notice that the CSS are working in cascade and the first time will take the code from style.css that is set it by default and then the theme will take the custom code that you have changed from Theme panel and practically this flash is generated by this cause.

Hello blue,
I have checked your website and I did not saw where is 0div.com when the side is in the loading process. Please provide a screenshot with the exact place where this information could be seen and also, please please tell me in which case it appears.
Please notice that if you want to optimize your page speed, you will have to spend a bit of time to do it yourself because it is not a simple task and depends on a lot of factors. So, you can consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ because there you will see the important steps which you need to follow in order to achieve best results in speed optimization. Also, if you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because this type of customizations are not covered by our support and involves custom work.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello radiodelta,
Please notice that the speed of the loading page depends on each user and how is optimized. Please notice that this is not theme related and if you want to make your website faster, you will have to follow the steps which are presented in this tutorial, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ Also, please notice that this is not a simple task and this customization addresses only for ADVANCED USERS. If you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello PDX,
If you want to change this default behaviour, you will have to alter the code from the td_config.php core file, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/RO3v2W1Ac2wq

If is not what you mean, please provide more details about what is happening and also, provide your website URL so I can inspect it closer.
Hope this helps!

Well, I wanted to tell you that I have tried many cache plugins and the best one is the one you suggested ” WP Fastest Cache” This speed well my website! Thank you for the tip:)
I spoke to my hosting to make some changes in the WP configuration, I hope they will do it:(
Now I will try to install the “Remove query strings from static resources” I hope it will improve the speed:)
Thank you again!
Hi
What for is Speed Booster plugin and can we use it to speed up the website?
Thank you
Hi,
I have contacted the support to help me with the speed of my website.
My site is incredibly slow. I have followed the instruction in the documentation by uploading the WP super cache and setting it as it is shown in the documentation.
I have uploaded the latest version of the Newspaper as well as the plugins that are included in the theme.
I also asked my hosting to increase the space in the WP-config. to 64MB, which they did and with all this, my website is still really slow.
I can’t work this way because it takes me ages to edit a page and it is really bad for the user and the SEO, well I am sure you know what I am talking about.
The result after uploaded the WP super cache on the “PageSpeed Insights” is 54/100, which is extremely slow!
I really need help with that, please.
Thank you
It seems very complicated to me for the moment, but I can try:)
Can you just send me a screenshot of the place to find the wp-config.php, please?
I don’t find it. The only place I see is the editor , which I only found plugins files.
I also have checked my website speed in the Pingdom tool and there is only 900 KB for the moment? Is that OK? I think there are enough spaces left in the WP memory.
Thank you again
Hi,
1) Please update the social counter by disabling the one you have now and deleting files and installing the new plugin version which comes with the latest theme version. You must have social counter version 4.0 for it to work properly
2) There is no official soulution for adding new social icons but you can try to replicate this method for adding a new social share option: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/add-a-linkedin-button/
3) The name of the file must be the same as the one in the main theme. your file is named functions2/.php
4) Same as 3
5) There are lots of plugins not compatible with speedbooster that people use. We have no alternative to provide but there is this workaround: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tinymce-advanced-and-other-various-disabling-speed-boster/
6) The cropping of the featured images is different for all post styles you use. There are a total of 14 post templates to chose from: https://forum.tagdiv.com/post-templates-2/
7) The homepage is the most customizable area of our theme. You chose from a total of 25 content blocks: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/ and 12 big grids: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/ among other elements.
Please read the documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/
8) APC is different from a caching plugin and it is compatible with sp super cache APC is a cache for PHP: http://www.inmotionhosting.com/support/website/what-is/speed-up-php-with-apc
9) Please contact your hosting provider and make sure compression is allowed/enabled from the server side.
10) Those are alternative methods. Use one or the other, not both
11) Speedbooster is for advanced users only. You placed the js inside the style css part. Please read it again and check the screenshots to see where to places css and where to place js blocks.
12) For a smart sidebar please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/
13) You can use a redirect to send the user elsewere if he clicks the author name: http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/beginners-guide-to-creating-redirects-in-wordpress/
Thanks
Yes, I tried yesterday. Unfortunately speed booster is disabled due to a plugin. But this plugin is very important on my website and it is impossible to uninstall it. There is another way to activate the speed booster? Manually!
Thanks in advance.
My high traffic travel website http://www.asiantraveltips.com has been using Newspaper theme for a couple of months now and it has been pretty good, but since the latest version updates all kinds of things have broken and I can’t fix them. I am currently on V7.0.1. My server is a VPS at A Small Orange running Apache with PHP V 5.4.45 and 1024 MB RAM. I’ve copied the Theme Status data below.
The Visual Composer is no longer working. I have tried uninstalling the plugin and reinstalling from the plugins folder in the theme files and it’s now on V.4.11.2 as you recommend but it still doesn’t work. If you visit the home page you’ll see the [vc] code is displayed at the top of the page instead of the parallax image scroller that should be there.
Apparently the image embed isn’t working, so look at http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/1243684/423dbeebbf2789c41a928271be340223
The image above shows the page editor screen when I try to edit my static front page. It’s blank. Before I uninstalled and reinstalled VC, it was displaying a VC logo in there but when I’d click it, I’d be taken to their website to buy the product. Now there’s just a blank box and if I click on the VC logo next to “Classic Editor” it does nothing. Same when I try to create a new page.
I have also lost my Mappress Pro maps and the admin strip across the tops of pages and posts when I am logged in as administrator. If I change back to my old theme, they both work just fine so it’s definitely related to Newspaper theme. I have even tried disabling all the other plugins and disabling Cloudflare and it makes no difference. So it doesn’t seem to be a plugin conflict.
I’m desperate and running out of options. This is starting to crash my Google rankings as well now.

Hi Cris, thanks for your support, I’ve tested my website (www.neuronews.com.br) via GTmetrix.com and it’s seems very nice (apparently), be in homepage or some post page, but when I do the scanning via Google pagespeed the page score is 63/100 plus a lot of issues, do you know what’s going on in this case? Which scanning tool is more accurate?
Hi Bogdan,
I want to mention here you take too much time in replay. According to your reply, I have just test your theme demo http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/, at the mentioned link. https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/
But the soooooooo many problems as was in case of mine. Both for mobile and desktop.
You can also check directly from the above mentioned link as I am not sending screenshot with this message. I am mentioning some issues that are same for all the websites that are using newspaper theme.
The most important that needs removal immediately.
- Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content
- Size tap targets appropriately
There are several others but I am just talking about these two because I don’t know how to tackle & go through with it. Where JavaScript and CSS going to block & what is meant by above-the-fold content? Which tap needs adjustments?
I am mentioning something about me that I am Electrical Engineer and I’ve purchased another domain http://www.tycoonzit.com/, I’d just thought to purchase newspaper again to use it for this site too. But these issues looking huge problem with the theme? If there is any solution then please provide us as soon as possible. Especially the first one needs immediate attention.
I’m not posting it somewhere or themeforest except here, also I don’t want to give -ve reviews about newspaper. As, I know that this stage required so much effort that you’r team and you had made.
If possible then replay in today’s time.
Seeking for reply.
Regards

Hi everyone,
Please I need your help guys, I’m facing a problem with theme optimization, I’ve hosted my website (www.neuronews.com.br) in the hostgator (shared server), it is the second time that they turn off my website (it is off right now), according to they it is consuming to much resources of the server.
My pagespeed is 64/100, my site is taking too much time to load the home page. I’ve already did an image optimization in all pictures.
Please could you guys give a piece of adive of how to solve this problem?
But please, I need a step-by-step guide, because I am not from IT area.
Hi Andrei,
We dont have any plugin which can do so. The plugins we have are
All In One SEO Pack, All In One WP Security, AntiVirus, Easy FancyBox,
Google XML Sitemaps, OneSignal Push Notifications, Revolution Slider, Single Day Posts Export, tagDiv Social Counter, tagDiv Speed Booster, Visual Form Builder, WordPress Importer, WP Cloudy, WP Security Audit Log, WP Smush, WP Super Cache, WP-Mail-SMTP, WPBakery Visual Composer, Youtube Channel Gallery.
I dont think any of these plugins can cause this. I think may be its the google/yahoo ad we put is generating a automatic ad while in mobile browser. It will be good if you can confirm.
Our website – http://odishatv.in
Thanks in advance.

Hi Bogdan,
I’ve gone through every one of my plugins to check if it was causing the problem before I reset all the options in the theme, and you would never guess which is the offending plugin? TagDiv Speed Booster! I am using a managed wordpress host and obviously the two don’t play nicely. I have removed this plugin and the website now loads faster and has no blue bar. I installed it after the last theme update about 3 weeks ago.
Thanks for all you help,
Gordon
Catalin,
Thank you so much. Please help me again. I was trying to set something for speed up and I mess my hole website and I really don´t know how to back.
http://www.emalgumlugardomundo.com.br
I messed the text,colors, logo, and everthing else.
HELP ME PLEASE!
Hello karrieristen,
I have checked your website URL and I saw the color switching in your header and also, I saw that you have speed booster to the active mode that moves the js and stylesheet file in the footer, the process that could cause this flash. Please notice that the CSS working in cascade and the first time take the code from style.css that is black and then take the color that you have changed from Theme panel that is white and practically this flash is generated by this cause. As a workaround, you have to check your style.css and try to add directly in this file your desired value of color, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/6NUCthcBGI
For you second request, please provide more details about what you want to change because I do not understand very good what you mean. Also, please provide a useful screenshot in this regard so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for you understanding!
Hello aktifje,
Please ensure that you have correctly followed the steps for optimization you website speed according to our tutorial. Please notice that by default, the style.css file is directly moved to the footer when the speed booster is active. If you want to move the js_composer.min.css to the footer section you have to add it manually through plugin’s file, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/k6ll3aTkgTaa The code that you have to add it there is -> $this->move_style_to_footer_queue('js_composer_front');
Please notice that to make your website faster it is a complex task and require some customizations in order to achieve best results. In the future, if you want to make a deeper development through theme and you are not aware of the steps you needed in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!
Thank you for the message!
