LOST DESIGN

Hello
After updating to WordPress 5.0.3 and after updating to Newspaper 9.2.2 I have lost the design of the website.
My website was based on a Demo called Erotic which I can’t find anymore.
How can I import the demo again?
Thank You, Best Regards

Hi showsarg
I’m using Newspaper and I updated from 8 to 9.
I don’t even have the “cloud templates”, never had. When I started the website I imported a demo that was called Erotic (Newspaper > Install Demos). After installing there where a lot of things imported like classes (.td-erotic) and so on. Now it’s all lost and I even can’t find the demo in the “Install Demos” session. In fact if I browse the theme I can see that in Newspaper8 I had Newspaper > includes > demos > erotic. In Newspaper9 there is no erotic folder in demos.
I really don’t know what to do, any help would be really appreciate.
Thank you.

Hi,


@tunisi45
That demo has been removed a while back due to complaints and some other factors, it has been modified and is now called Classy magazine
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_classy/

Maybe you can consider using this new demo instead of the previous one. If you need help or have more questions let me know.

Thanks

Thank you Simon
I did noticed that Classy homepage was very similar when not even identical to Erotic, but the post-pages are very different. I hope I will be able to reproduce the design of posts in the same way it was in Erotic Magazine.

It could be a great help if you could confirm the following things to do:
1 – Newspaper > Install Demos > Classy Magazine (only settings!)
2 – Theme panel > Custom Code => Replace CSS class .td-erotic with .td-classy

Last question
If I open the file Newspaper8 > includes > demos > erotic > demo_style.css there are 504 lines of CSS code.
If I open the file Newspaper9 > includes > demos > classy > demo_style.css there are only two lines of CSS code.
Same with the demo_style.less file.
Shall I be worried not to find the customization of the Erotic Magazine Demo by installing Classy Magazine?

The classy demo uses a cloud template for the posts, you can change it to a different template if you want to.

With the introduction of the cloud library plugin, now post templates and many other templates can be created with the tagDiv composer
https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
There are templates designed by us which can be imported

Also there are blank templates which can be used to create a template from scratch. Using cloud templates is not mandatory, the default post templates are still available.

You can install the demo with no content, this way only the theme panel settings will be imported. This demo has an additional stylesheet but it is minimal indeed

Most of it’s design is made in the composer directly with the available settings. Flex blocks were used mostly and these have a great deal of options and settings. We tried to keep the design similar to the erotic demo but there were some changes.

The class td-erotic is no more, it is now td-classy. This was one of the reasons the erotic demo has been modified.
You can remove the body class if it remained in the theme pane, it has no purpose anymore. Unless you used it in custom CSS code.

If you need help with anything else let me know.

Thank you Simon so much for helping me.
Now I have to study a little bit about the new theme integrations, included the cloud library, before bothering you again 🙂

We can close this topic.
Have a nice day and thanks again.
