ERROR THEME MOBILE. NEW UPDATE Newspaper 9.7

This version of the tagDiv Mobile Theme plugin is not supported by the current activated theme!
Please update your theme!

have same problem

Same problem here as well. Update went smoothly otherwise.

same here

ok, it’s a bug

Yep me too, propably a bug

Who has done the update successfully, I don’t wanna break my website and lose traffic.
Waiting to see what happens with you guys.

The break wasn’t that bad for me. AMP still works and I’ve used the responsive site anyway. If you rely heavily on the mobile theme, I’d hold off.

@hahsiam Uploading the files via FTP and updating the core plugins from “Newspaper-> Welcome, did the trick for me. Just a 5 minute procedure, and no problems whatsoever, except of course from the Mobile theme bug.

Same here , same message : This version of the tagDiv Mobile Theme plugin is not supported by the current activated theme!
Please update your theme!

If i now i use the latest activated theme.

What i must to do ?

Kind Regards,

Hi all.

I have good news I guess, so I am sharing it. Not sure what the future holds in store for me but as of now my site is working along with Mobile Theme. I faced the same problem of

“This version of the tagDiv Mobile Theme plugin is not supported by the current activated theme! Please update your theme!”

While updating via FTP, I was getting “1 Failed Transfer”, all files except one were getting transferred. So I deleted the entire Newspaper Folder in Themes. Then I uploaded the new 9.7 Newspaper folder and there was no failed transfer. But I got another problem:

Not able to login using mysite.com/admin. From another support thread I got this: Login using mysite.com/wp-login.php. This worked. After login, I installed the Mobile Theme plugin and that too started working. My earlier customization of Mobile Theme was still there. Now I am back to normal, touch wood.

So, the moral of the story is:

1. Put the site in maintenance mode.
2. Use FTP and delete the old Newspaper theme folder.
3. Upload the new folder.
4. Login to the site using mysite.com/wp-login.php
5. Install & activate all new plugins including Mobile Theme Plugin.

I just hope I am not celebrating too soon.

Thanks.

Same here.

I tried several times to update, deactivate and reinstall a (manually via FTP and via wordpress) and the error is still there.

Calin,

That doesn’t work. It claims that the plugin is successfully activated but then the error just returns on the next page load. There’s clearly something wrong with Newspaper and this plugin on all of these set ups…

Ok, I took another run at it and I JUST fixed it on my site.

I tried a variation of desiyatri’s approach. Using CPanel’s file manager I deleted the Newspaper folder and then re-extracted the zip file. That seemed to clear it up. Site is working again fully.

Oddly, with this approach Id didn’t have to re-install the plugins or even reenable the theme. It seems to be working right out of the box…

I have done the same as you (delete the theme from cpanel and extract there the new zip), and now It´s ok. Thanks

Same issue here. Unable to activate Mobile theme plugin.
Tried through FTP, newspaper/welcome etc but nothing works.
