Hi Guys,
Great fan of your work 🙂 I have bought both Newsmag and Newspaper themes to use on my websites. But few things/options which I really miss and am sure many publishers like me want them as well. So, here is a small list of features suggestion, which you guys can bring in future version of themes…
1. Many publishers like me have smartphone apps of their publication/website. So, please introduce a widget kind of thing for sidebar just like social counter widget which displays the logos of Apple App Store, Google Play Store, and Windows App Store.. through which we can notify and redirect our readers to respective app stores to download our mobile apps.
2. Please introduce auto load of previous or same category post on single post page. You can check Flex Mag theme to know what am talking about. They have given an option of auto loading posts below the single post using ajaxing, i guess. The auto load of posts increases the page views per visitor, brings down the bounce rate, increase average time spent on site.. and good in various ways. You can also check Digit.in website to check the auto loading of posts. Please introduce this option and we publishers will be very thankful to you guys.
3. Auto YouTube playlist fetching or Latest videos fetching from a specific YouTube Channel. Many publishers like me also have YouTube channel, which they updates on regular basis. So, if you can introduce a widget and Block/Module to display YouTube playlist or Channel’s latest videos list automatically just by adding the playlist ID or Channel ID… it will be awesome! In current block, we have to manually enter the IDs of videos which we want to display which is very painful thing to do again and again.
4. Please introduce native functionality of adding contact forms, no more depending on 3rd party plugins.
5. Introduce Quora profile option in Social Counter Plugin.
That’s it for now. I hope to get a positive reply on introduction of these features soon in the themes. 🙂
Thanks & Regards

Hi,
I have added this to our suggestions list and the developers will consider it for future theme’s updates. We have over 250 features on our list we have to pick very carefully what we implement.
Just an alternative for first question. You could you Carousel from Visual Composer in the page content to display logos and add also the links – http://screencast.com/t/ZAtZaQCWywKF – http://screencast.com/t/F00RScfMvg
