Hi there!
I am new to wordpress and tagdiv theme – please help me out ma’am / sir!
1. I have bought tagdiv newspaper theme
2. I have installed it – and then, ran demo for “Politics”
3. My website injust.org
You will see that the home page is blank – does not look like the demo
4. But, after you go to my website injust.org
And, then -> Hover over More -> Click Economy or Healthcare or Environment in the Dropdown under More
Click it
You will see that now you can see demo pictures and demo content.
BUT NOT IN HOME PAGE
Please help me out!
Hi,
The homepage seems to be empty, there is no page structure and content except a registration message
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ohg8Thquasp
A suggestion would be to first check the theme system status, and make modifications to the parameters mentioned in this guide, if necessary
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Then deactivate all your plugins except the ones provided in the theme package, (uninstall the demo if it appears installed) and install the demo again.
The demo install process should go without any issues
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Please let us know if you still have problems installing a demo.
Thanks
Dear Sir Simion,
I followed your instructions.
Previous problem solved – you are just AWESOME!
Now, please tell me why
When scrolling up on injust.org
With Demo installed for “Politics World News” Demo of Tag Div Newspaper,
Why when scrolling up, navigation bar is not sticking
?
Hi,
Glad the issue is solved. You can make the header menu sticky when scrolling up, or always sticky in the header settings of the theme panel

Thanks
Dear Simion,
Thank you so much for helping me – I am a complete beginner in wordpress, and themes – without your guidance and pointers I would be so left out!
Yes, navigation bar is now sticking – you are AWESOME!
Please guide me on another issue:
On my website:
http://www.injust.org
I want to have video background for each page –
Similar to this website from my class mate: worldviewpost.com
For instance,
Home Page – I want to set video1.mp4 as background and music1.mp3 as background music
Where both the files are say 30 second long and will loop.
Then, for
http://www.injust.org/category/world/
The background will be say video2.mp4 and background music will be music2.mp3
Then, further
Say,
http://www.injust.org/category/world/africa/
Will have another background say video3.mp4 and audio music3.mp3
And, Further:
The POST
http://www.injust.org/what-the-future-of-africa-looked-like-in-1959d/
I will put a video say videoofthepost.mp4 and audioofthepost.mp3
As the background video and audio
I have been reading and learning about css selectors and css way to do it
However, I do not want to break/crash tagdiv Newspaper Theme by something wrong, or open up a security hole
Therefore,
Please advice me on what code will enable this feature on my TagDiv Newspaper Theme.
Again,
My website, which I just started, and is running demo content, is here:
injust.org
And, to re-iterate, I want to have the background features similar to:
worldviewpost.com
Which, is run by my “jealous” classmate.
Again, Sir Simion, your expertise and guidance is of cardinal importance to me.
I am deeply grateful to you and TagDiv team for making such an awesome theme!
And, on top of that helping us [beginners] !!!
Yours truely,
Ahmad Touseef
Hi,
There is no option to set video and audio backgrounds for pages, only colors or images
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
Rows can be customized with background images or colors as well, when editing the page
– https://www.screencast.com/t/utjx6eqk7wG
Category pages can also have individual backgrounds
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
That could only be done with custom implementation, or maybe with a plugin that has this option and is compatible with the theme. We have not tested such plugins or code with the theme, so I cannot make any recommendations unfortunately.
You can try the methods you have researched and see if they work properly.
Thanks
Dear Simion,
Could you please, tell me – to which address I should send my “feature request” for having background videos and audio available as an option, as a new feature in future tagdiv updates?
Dear Simion,
After giving thought and talking to my colleagues, we infact want to ask TagDiv to do a custom implementation for us to have video and audio backgrounds – until this feature is released in the next NewsPaper Update (I assume).
Of course, it will cost extra – and, how much will it be from TagDiv, to implement this custom video and audio background feature?
With gratitude,
Dear Simion,
In the meantime, I will use background image – until TagDiv has video support.
However, through Theme Panel when I set background image,
I do see a bug/issue.
Visit my website here, to see it yourself:
You will see the issues:
1. The text on the right side of the slide show is cutoff and NOT readable – only half sentences can be seen
2. All the content in the website – the menu, header, posts, everything, has white-background and blocking the view of the background image. The viewer should be able to see the background image translucently/opacity wise while reading posts.
You have to show me how to change the opacity of the contents, so that background shows through them translucently
Thank you!
Hi,
I will add the request on our list, but please understand that I cannot say exactly if or when something like this will be available. There are many suggestions and recommendation on our list, and it is hard for the developers to decide what gets implemented as soon as possible, and what gets postponed.
Unfortunately we do not have a customization department at the moment, so we cannot provide custom work or major website modifications. If you would like to achieve the results you want, you could consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you. Or do it yourself, but be aware that this may not be an easy task.
If a background image is set then the website will become boxed, in order to display the background. The Revolution slider layout can be changed in it’s settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/xn72LPn4HFV
The revolution slider is a very complex plugin with many settings. Her you can find all the official documentation
– https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-revolution-documentation/
You can make it display like this when a background is set
– https://www.screencast.com/t/cHFj7z2mB
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Ydhd0Y3t27
– https://www.screencast.com/t/VYjBepdM
All the containers you mention have a white background. There is no option to change that color, by default. Some demos might have a different custom styling.
You could use the browser inspector to identify the elements on the page and the classes used in order to create custom code
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
You will have to change the default background color or modify it with opacity to achieve what you want
