Hi there,
I have just purchased the new edition of the newspaper theme, but I can´t install it. After the upload of the theme it says “link expired – try it again”.
Hello !
The message you get is quite common with WordPress. In most cases it can be easily fixed.
For example – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/the-link-you-followed-has-expired/
In that case the max upload size was limited, increasing it solved the problem. Usually this is the main cause.
Check this guide carefully and make modifications if needed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
If everything is set properly there should be no problem. Contact your hosting provider if needed and ask them to make changes as the guide suggests.
You can also install the theme by FTP, that is not difficult to do and it’s very useful to know how to use FTP. If our guide is not detailed enough check some more online

Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you !
Thanks a lot! I will check it out in a couple of hours. One more question: I have created a backup server with updraft. Can I install the theme on my backup server first and then on my regular page or will there be a problem regarding the license?
Hello,
Our theme as well as all other envato themes fall under the same standard license.
The license is created by envato and all envato members have to stick to it.
Please inspect the license here: https://themeforest.net/licenses/standard and for a complete description: https://themeforest.net/licenses/terms/regular
As long as you do not use the license on more than 1 website for prolonged periods of time, it should be ok.
Thank you!
Thank you very much! I just want to test it first, because I have made some adjustments regarding the size of the thumbnails in newpaper 9.0.1 and I don’t want to risk anything that could mess up my site.
I have just tried to install it via Ftp, but it did not work. The upload to the themes folder was okay, but when I go to the themes in the admin area, I cannot see it there. Do I have to do any adicional steps?
Hello !
Please make sure you are following all of our steps here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ And here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-6-how-to-activate-the-theme/
Let me know how this worked out !
Thank you !
Everything worked out fine! Thank you very much!
Another question: Can I use the header image with a a link that I define? I have already used newspaper 9.0.1., but I could find out how to change the link of the header image.
Hello !
You can add a link only to your Newspaper ad as you can see here: https://www.screencast.com/t/xq7PHqZ4v7kD ; The link will be added here: https://www.screencast.com/t/oc8m48Dy
Or you can recreate your header using the tagDiv Composer and Cloud library and there you can add your logos with URLs. Find out more about it here: https://tagdiv.com/overlay-header-newspaper-theme/
I hope this was helpfull !
Thank you !
