Hello tagDiv Support,
I found a bug in the Review feature of Newspaper theme.
In the Review section, inside the “Feature Name” field, some commas are automatically replaced with periods after generating the preview.
The issue is not happening with every comma, but only with certain occurrences, and it seems to happen during the preview update.
Example:
Before preview:
“Regia, fotografia e montaggio”
After preview:
“Regia. fotografia e montaggio”
Other punctuation marks like “-” and “:” work correctly, and the “Review Description” field does not show this problem.
I have already updated Newspaper to the latest version available, but the issue is still present.
Could you please investigate this behavior?
Thank you.
Existing reviews are affected too. When editing old reviews, the comma has already been replaced by a period in the saved Feature Name value.
WordPress 6.9.4
Newspaper 12.7.6
PHP 8.1.34
Hi,
I see there was some work done on the review section a while ago in a previous update. The reason was to fix the case when using the points review type, when users were adding commas instead of periods in the values -> https://prnt.sc/zv18e5RW2iYU This lead to calculation problems for the review.
The fix was to automatically transform the commas to periods, intended just for that points input field specifically. But it seems to apply to all the inputs, including the feature name.
I could provide a quickfix for this issue. Please download this file from here -> https://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/07/td_set_post_settings.zip
Unzip it and there will be a PHP file. That file must replace the existing file via this path in the composer -> wp-content\plugins\td-composer\legacy\common\wp_booster\wp-admin\content-metaboxes
If you want I can do it on your website, and I’ll also test to see if the issue is solved. You can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to the website, admin user and pass, also access to cPanel or FTP.
We are very sorry for this inconvenience.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for your support and for providing the quickfix.
I replaced the file as instructed and tested the Review Feature Name field. The issue is now solved: commas are no longer converted into periods, both in the preview and after saving the post.
I also corrected the few existing reviews that had been affected by the issue, and they are now displaying correctly.
Thank you again for your help in identifying and fixing the problem.
Best regards.
That’s great, thank you for letting me know. And sorry again for this inconvenience.
Best regards.
