Hello Tagdiv.
We bought your theme “Newspaper”, but we are experiencing some issues.
1. Post template issue
We are using the demo “City news” (import with no changes) on the single post pages, we want to check the different options for “post template”
We expect that when we change the “post template” setting
http://take.ms/PdtHE
We expect to see this:
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/louge-music-reasons-why-in-form-leicester-city-will-finish/
Instead we see this:
http://take.ms/LbpIo (default something post temlate)
We have tried:
-Other server
-Different php versions (5.6 -> 7.2)
-New install of wp and theme
-New import of demo content for “city news”
-New import of demo content for the default white theme
-We even tried newsmag your sibling theme.
We have this issue for everything we tried.
Question: Do you know what is up here?
2. Gallery issue
We are trying to use: https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-slide-gallery/
But it seems it does not work properly. Instead of the “Slide gallery” then we get a “grid gallery”. The Gutenberg editor block, does not give us similar options as from link: https://tagdiv.com/tagdiv-slide-gallery/ (http://take.ms/zRRjh) what we see is a grid: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1LKrZiyj_bHCbrv5vxxHO1jGm1Cqnuc-h/view
There is no option to get the Slider instead of the grid, and we don’t find any other Gutenberg blocks where it was possible.
Question: Can you please help us to get the slider?
3. Problem with custom post type
Via the tutorial and documentation we used the plugin that was in the download package from the Newspaper to create a custom post type with custom taxonomies.
With that we expect to see:
A new custom posttype with two taxonomies, with same options at “post” have for the newspaper theme: http://take.ms/effsl (screenshot of “post” CPT) and the Gutenberg editor.
Instead we see:
Old editor: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1SghrUywCHrOX8PnCEVapiyynTLGSQG9V/view
And these options only: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kiaqlOIDNB2KT2TudDx6JwOk0dkA8lSR/view (Post setting block is completely missing)
Question: Kindly help to tell what we are doing wrong, and how can we get the options
Info:
We currently use PHP 7.2
We updated to the latest version of the theme 9.7.3

Thanks for helping.

Hi,
1. Currently there is an issue like the one you mention, the post templates don’t apply properly when the child theme is active. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme for the time being. This problem will be fixed for the next theme update. Sorry for the inconvenience.
2. The tagDiv gallery can be used in Gutenberg, but through a classic element
– http://prntscr.com/o9dxum – http://prntscr.com/o9dyk9 – http://prntscr.com/o9dz2o
Please try it like this and it should work fine.
3. Custom post types will not have the same settings as default posts. They can’t use the same templates, settings etc. Before the recent updates it was possible to create a template for theme within a child theme, based on the predefined post templates (1->13). But now that is not possible anymore because the post template files were moved in the tagDiv composer plugin. We will try to find a solution in this matter.
There aren’t many settings for CPT and taxonomies, in the composer as well. Most of the options and settings are created to work with default posts and categories.
So having the same possibilities for CPT is not possible.
Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi, after reading this post i can be able to create TagDiv Slide Gallery but can’t find a block to use that post(category) on my pages. I tried adding Big Grid element but that shows a box with the link and link open to a page with slide gallery with different page and so many things above and below Slide Gallery.
Thanks for your time and support.
Hi greymatters,
Unfortunately there is not block in our theme that can render the sliders inside the posts, sorry! our theme have some sliders that this is only for posts, not for slider insider the posts, sorry!
If this is not what you mean, please provide some more details and screenshots.
Thank you!
