NEWSPAPER Theme Major Issue | Core Web Vital FAILED

This seems to be a massive issue for this theme. I’ve looked over a number of other posts on this specific topic. The only support that is given is mostly unhelpful and sends people on a wild goose chase. Though the real problem lies with the theme itself.

My question is a simple one, If and when will the theme be updated to meet all the Core Web Vitals criteria?

At this stage I am looking at moving my website over to a different theme, even after using Newspaper for over 4 years. This would be a huge job though it currently seems to be my only option to save my website from Google search death.

My simple post page with no ads currently fails LCP, FCP & TTFB with a mobile score of 38/100

No good at all. A note to anyone else experiencing issues with there Core Web Vitals, WP Rocket (Paid Plugin) will help bring your score up, but will not help you pass Core Web Vitals.

I really like everything about this theme (apart from current issues with CWV) and don’t want to lose it but this could be the end.

Please team give us some real help and update the theme ASAP.

Craig.

Hi,
Here I will disagree with you, because I use the newspaper theme on many pages, example two test results 😁
