Hi,
I use the popular categories widget as sown on the preview (http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/) bottom right.
My popular categories widget doesn’t show the most popular categories. It shows my categories randomly. When is a category popular? Is that based on posts or views? What do I have to do to display the categories based on their popularity? Most popular categories on top.
The large slider on my homepage has 4 posts. One large and three smaller ones along side. Also as shown on your preview. When I look at the website on my iPhone only the large one is shown. The three along side are gone. How can I make sure all of my latest posts are visible on the iPhone?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
1. The popular category widget is based on the number of posts. Can you send us a link to see this issue?
2. How the big slider work: If you have on desktop 2 slides on phone you will have 2 slides to, but the difference is that 1 slide on desktop contain 4 posts and on mobile just 1.
The first post from your big slide will appear on the mobile slider.
You need to increase the number of posts if you want more slides on mobile.
Thank you
Dear Lucian,
Thank you for your reply. I’ll try some things with the big slider.
How can I send you the url of my site? I searched a PM link but I can’t find it.
Edit, this is a private forum so I can post it here: http://www.mamaplein.nl/

I have increased the number of posts but still the homepage is missing posts from the index on mobile.
Homepage on mobile should display same posts as on desktop. Now the homepage on mobile is missing posts. If for some reason the three blocks along side the big image can’t be displayed on mobile I would like to move them to a different block.
So if page is viewed on mobile move the second, third and fourth post to the latest articles. That way every device shows same posts from homepage.
Can this be done?

I got it. It was the Category Order and Taxonomy Terms Order plugin. After deactivation the categories displayed correct. Only now the categorie order in menu is screwed. Can you help me with that too?
1. How to order the sub categories in menu.
2. How to display same posts from homepage on desktop and mobile.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
1. The subcategories in the theme menu are sorted in alphabetical order and the theme doesn’t have a solution that allows you to sort manually the subcategory in the menu.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
2. I don’t understand your question can you be more specific?
Thank you
Hi Lucian,
I would like to display all latest posts on both desktop and mobile. Mobile is now missing 3 posts on homepage. Can we move the 3 missing posts on mobile to the latest articles?
if user is mobile move missing articles to latest articles.

Hi,
A solution would be to use two sliders on page, one big slider and one normal slider – http://screencast.com/t/KfzBqvWoefBi
Use the same settings for both sliders (same category, sort order), hide the title on the normal slider.
Add a class to the sliders so you can target them in CSS like this:
– http://screencast.com/t/guU3pZYB
– http://screencast.com/t/A6bl2fhI2
Use css to hide the big slider on mobile and the show the normal slider instead (add the following css inside the Theme Panel -> Custom CSS):
@media (min-width: 767px) {
.bs_mobile .td_normal_slide {
display:none;
}
}
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.bs_mobile .td_block_slide_big {
display: none;
}
}Now there should be 4 posts on desktop and 4 posts on mobile.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi Emil,

Thanks.

Hi Emil,
after the V4 update the big slider looking strange on mobile view. I have tried the above mentioned workaround with 2 sliders, one normal and one big but somehow this is not working anymore? Can you please check? With this css code the normal slider is hidden on desktop but unfortunatelly the big one is not hidden on mobiles. You can check on my site too: http://hashtagsport.de/beta
Thx in advance!
Hi,
You don’t need to use the above fix anymore, we have fixed the big slider in V4 and now it looks great, in your case your big slider looks different from the one we have on our demo?
I have checked your site and the big slider looks fine.
Let me know if you have any other issues.

Hi Lucian,
thanks for your reply. I actually didnt realize that the big slider (in v 4.0.1) is made on purpose. For me it seems very overloading for the user, with 4 articles and the article pictures. Is there a way to bring back to older mobile design of the big sliders but have the newest theme version?
thank you!
Hi,
Please make sure you have the add the two sliders like this: http://screencast.com/t/eylddWnw
After you done that add this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom CSS to hide the big slider on mobile:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.iosSlider.td_block_big_grid {
display: none;
}
}Let me know if it works!
