I have three problems so far in a new installation of newspaper theme

1) BigSlide leaves large whitespace… can you tell me why?

2) Slide leaves spaces too

3) selecting “Homepage with bg” as page template sets up the background, but leaves the big slide empty

Hi,

1&2 Please try to regenerate your thumbnails: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-fix-strange-thumbnails/
After doing this empty cache and check again.
Also note that if you have featured images smaller you need to use a plugin like Thumbnail Upscale: https://wordpress.org/plugins/thumbnail-upscale/ as WordPress cannot enlarge thumbnails, only make them smaller. For upscale use a combination of plugins Thumbnail Upscale + Force Regenerate.

3. This should not happen, because the background should have negative z-index. Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom Css: http://screencast.com/t/4Tyxyq5OJ

.td-big-slide-background .backstretch{
z-index: -999998!important;
}

Please provide your site url if this not helps.

Thanks!

I found what was causing the problem in (1)

GD Library in my test server was not enabled.
I enabled it through php.ini and recreated thumbnails and it worked…

for (2)
The problem remains as I see the description outside the image

all done. thanks!

The (2) problem wasn’t visually fixed once I enabled gd library because the analogies of the visual composer column was 1/2 and it “needed” a bit more…

So changing it to 2/3 + 1/3 it worked.
Thank you again for your info
