Hello,
I recently purchased the Newspaper 12 theme from ThemeForest.
When I download the “All files & documentation” package (about 90 MB) and unzip it, the newspaper.zip file inside is only about 3 MB.
From what I understand, the full Newspaper theme should be much larger (around 50–70 MB) and contain all the necessary CSS, JS, and other assets, but my file seems incomplete.
I have tried:
Downloading both the “All files & documentation” and “Installable WordPress file only” options.
Unzipping the package and checking the folders carefully.
Downloading again from a different browser.
The problem persists — the theme file is always about 3 MB. Could you please advise me on how to get the full installable theme?
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
If you want, I can also prepare a screenshot + folder structure to send with this email so they can see the 3 MB file and confirm the issue faster. That usually speeds up their reply.
Do you want me to make that for you?
Did you open all the other zip files. The ‘theme’ itself is not including all the photoshop files, etc., but the installable theme folder alone. All the extras, and supporting info is in the other folders. Look at the total folder size once you unzip *all* the zips inside the all files download. That is the total theme package payload, not the installable theme by itself.
(I don’t work here.)
Hi,
That’s correct, the theme itself is about 3 MB. Only old versions of the theme were larger, before we had to make these modifications https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
So the bulk of the theme is in the composer plugin, which is required. Please install the theme normally, and then there should be a prompt to install the composer. Then the theme can be activated with the license key and that’s it. You can install a theme demo and begin customizing it with the composer.
Please let us know if you have more questions.
Thank you!
thank you, it’s done
