I don’t understand why the Newspaper theme doesn’t support the offset feature in the infinite scroll area. This is a very important feature, and I sincerely hope you add it to your theme soon.

Hello,

The infinite load has those options https://i.imgur.com/nl8XiaJ.png https://forum.tagdiv.com/infinite-loading-single-posts/
If you want other functionalities, these can only be done in code
The code for infinite post iframe is on those files:
-> wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/includes/tdb_ajax.php
-> wp-content/plugins/td-cloud-library/assets/js/js_posts_autoload.min.js
-> wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/js/tagdiv_theme.min.js

Thank you!

Hi Anamaria,

Thank you for your quick response and for sharing the related files.

I understand that additional functionalities like offset support need to be added through code, but I truly believe that having a built-in offset feature for the infinite scroll system—especially in modes like “Same Category Previous”—would be incredibly valuable for many users.

This feature would allow us to skip a specific number of posts before loading the next ones automatically, which can be useful in various editorial and design scenarios.

I kindly request that you consider adding native support for this feature in a future update. I’m sure it would enhance the flexibility of the theme and be appreciated by a lot of developers using Newspaper.

Thanks again for your time and great work!

Best regards,

Hi Calin,

Thank you for acknowledging the feature request and for adding it to your internal list.

Is there any way I can get notified if this offset functionality is approved and implemented in a future update? For example, should I keep an eye on a specific changelog page or subscribe to a newsletter or updates section?

Looking forward to any news on this!

Best regards,

Hi Calin,

Thank you once again for your help and for considering the offset feature request.

As I’m currently exploring the possibility of implementing this functionality manually, I was wondering if it’s possible to access the unminified versions of the following files for easier customization and testing:

js_posts_autoload.min.js

tagdiv_theme.min.js

Working with the original source code (uncompressed) would greatly assist in understanding the logic and safely implementing changes without relying on minified code.

If possible, could you kindly provide access to those files, or let me know if there’s a developer-friendly version available?

Best regards,
mostwonder

Hi,
You can get the unminified versions of those files from here:
js_posts_autoload.min.js -> https://pastebin.com/5tGxmqVj
tagdiv_theme.min.js -> https://pastebin.com/v1REiEga
I hope this will help you!
