Hello,
I’m having an issue with my header and footer displaying on my mobile site in newspaper theme.
I was initially having trouble with the formatting changes I made through the mobile tagDiv composer. It was making the same changes to my desktop version. I found through searching the documentation that the mobile site cannot be edited in tagdiv so I turned off the mobile theme and was able to successfully edit the formatting of my pages without it affecting the desktop version.
The issue then became that my header and footer on my mobile are not displaying properly. The header changed to My WordPress and removed my logo, and the footer is only showing my footer sub-menu and nothing else. tagDiv is stating that I can only edit the header/footer through a theme template, but the theme template is not displaying properly. I turned the mobile theme back on and checked the settings and still am experiencing the same issues with the header and footer. I’m not clear on how to edit my header and footer to display correctly and I’m not able to find a solution that addresses my exact issue.
How can I edit my header and footer if it’s stating that it can only be edited with a theme template and the theme template it not displaying it properly?
And to clarify: am I not able to edit any part of my mobile site with the mobile theme? I keep getting a message that it’s the best for my mobile site, but it’s not allowing me to format it properly. As stated above, it’s changing my desktop version. I want my mobile site to display the exact same information as my desktop.
Thank you in advance for your guidance.
Hello,
If you have created mobile templates, then you need to convert the header/footer -> https://www.screencast.com/t/HrjOBNayd please check this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY to be able to edit them with tagDiv Composer.
Using our theme you can choose from 3 mobile versions
-> mobile responsive => https://www.screencast.com/t/oJ2ShOp47
-> mobile theme plugin => https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
-> mobile page => https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-10-3-7-update-brings-customizable-and-fast-mobile-pages/
If you created the mobile pages with tagDiv Composer, then when you install the Mobile Theme plugin, your pages will be overwritten by the plugin (the mobile theme comes with its templates for page, post, category, etc so your current templates from the desktop theme will get converted to the mobile theme layout, the page content is made without builders in mobile editor => https://www.screencast.com/t/xbgZG8kH also, the options that are provided to edit the mobile theme version are limited (this keeps the things simple)).
This is a video about Responsive Newspaper Theme, AMP & Mobile Theme, Mobile Pages & Templates -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SpGkOnJeNZY
So, the mobile responsive is what you see then that you select the viewport on phone => https://www.screencast.com/t/matV17hH, so some settings may apply for each viewport(where is the border blue), and others are not(where the border is black).
The mobile page has the mobile templates from Cloud Library => https://www.screencast.com/t/YCcZ8rL8
Mobile responsive version of the theme and the mobile page editor can be edited with tagDiv Composer, the mobile theme plugin not.
For example, you can have the mobile theme plugin activated and use the mobile page/mobile responsive version for the homepage/pages, but for the categories pages/404 page you can’t use the mobile page/mobile responsive version if you have the mobile theme plugin activated.
So, if you want to design the pages with tagDiv Composer, you can use the mobile page or mobile responsive version.
Thank you!
Okay. This is a lot to digest. I will work through this to grasp a better understanding and reach back out with any clarifying questions. Thank you!
