Hello, getting ready to switch to Newspaper and finishing up a few things. I need some help with the following:
1. On my homepage (SneakerFiles.com/test/) there is 2 ad spots. 1 under the first two article then another 4 down. I was wondering how I could set this up on the category and tag pages?
2. Where is says “Load More” at the bottom of the page, I want to have it a block style just like I have it here:
https://ibb.co/n5WcEk
Also can I change the text from “Load More” to “See More” or anything else?
3. I am using Big Block 3 for the main 3 articles but when I view on mobile, it’s stacked. Is there a way to make it align like I have it on desktop or even switch the style of it on mobile?
4. How can I remove the “Read More” button on category and tag pages?
Thank you in advance for reading and helping.
Hello,
1) Sorry but custom ad spots can only be added on pages. The loop templates do not have ad spots in our theme. It can only be done with an ad plugin that can provide such functionality or by code customization.
2) Please add this code in the theme panel-> custom css box:
.td_ajax_load_more_js{
width:100%;
background-color:black;
}
3)Each big grid has it’s own style on mobile. Please check the mobile version of the different grids in our theme: https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/
You can change the current grid from the top right where it says 12 bog grids.
4) You can change the module to one that does not have a red more tag, or change the pagination to a standard one without read more. For categories, this can be set from the per category settings: https://www.screencast.com/t/xwQbbYkbh
For the tag template, the settings can be found here:

Thanks.
With all due respect, it seems like you kind of rushed through this.
1. Is there a way I can get the categories and tag pages to resemble that of the home by pulling the ads? I don’t want a “custom ad spot” but just to loop it all together.
4. I don’t want to change the module to one that doesn’t have “read more”, I would like to just remove the “read more button”. How can I achieve this?
Also for 2. how can I remove the arrow?
Hello,
1) Sorry but this is not possible in our theme to place articles between the posts on a category page. The theme does not have such functionality. It can only be done with a plugin (i can’t recommend one as we have not officially tested any ad plugins) with custom code modification which we cannot provide.
2) Please also add this code to remove the small arrow:
.td_ajax_load_more .td-icon-menu-down{
display:none!important;
}
4)Please provide an example of exactly what read more button are you referring to so I can figure out a solution.
Thanks.
1. I don’t want to place articles but an Ad. I have seen this done before. There is a way to add it in the loop?
4. For read more it should be under every article here:
Hi,
1) Yes, there is a way, but we cannot provide it. It is done custom through coding if you have the coding skills or the money to pay a freelancer to do it for you.
4) If you want to remove the read more from module 11 you will have to remove it from the code here: https://www.screencast.com/t/fIJUjzDFhzMy
1. There was a way to do it on NewsMag…but not newspaper?
4. If I plan on updating the template, will what I removed effect the changes?
Hello,
You probably found an older solution in the newsmag forum that is no longer working properly in the current version. Code gets changed and custom solutions provided here on the forum could not work for extended periods of time as code gets updated.
Every piece of code you modify in the theme will be rewritten when updating. There is no update proof way of altering the theme code. Not even a child theme is update proof:

Thank you!
