Hello,
The theme looks fantastic! It is easy to add new posts and get them to look great.
I have two issues with the Newspaper theme that I need help on:
1. The mobile menu is not working properly on mobile devices. I upgraded to the new V8 theme, and ever since, I can not update the mega menu in the WordPress menu section. It does not give me the option to add featured posts of categories to the mega menu either. All but one of the menu items work on mobile. The main item, the drop down with the images of the posts is not working on mobile. News Room is the menu item that does not show properly on mobile. I have not been too impressed with the mobile app add-on, as you can not view actual pages and are limited to only posts. So, I am using the responsive theme without the mobile app add-on. I realize that it speeds up the mobile site, but if you can not get them to look the same, what is the point?

2. When using the TagDiv builder, I noticed that you can not add any links to any of the content. You have descriptions for content for team/staff members bios, content blocks, text with titles, and all do NOT allow you to add a simple little link. Any advice on how to make this work? We have some team members that have websites or links to youtube videos, and this can not be added to the team section. The social media icons are cool, but not everyone has those as contact info. What about a phone number, email, and a website link? Not seeing those vital things for the team feature. I did see an option to add your own HTML code, but that is why we are using the builder to speed things along and have features like hero sections, title and text, and the many more you offer.
Please advise? Thanks!

The “Make this a category mega menu” option in the WordPress menu section for each page does not show up for me anymore. I tried to look up any information on the topic prior to posting here.
Looking forward to resolving this. Thanks!
Hi,
1. On mobile, mega-menus will not be displayed. The mobile menu is limited to drop-down style. Some of the menu items in the header menu do not link anywhere on desktop and on mobile. If these are categories please re-add them in the menu as categories

If they are custom links add a link to them

So they would lead somewhere on the website. Regardless of mobile plugin used or not, the mobile menu will still look the same in design. A difference would be that if the mobile plugin is used, a different menu can be set for mobile

Page content built with composers will not be displayed on mobile if the mobile plugin is used. Mobile pages are restricted to the mobile editor.
The mobile theme is intended to present a lighter version of the website, optimized for mobile devices. There will be predefined front page templates, category page, post page etc.
2. You could add the link in the description field of the team member element

There are no dedicated options to add links in this element, or the other information you mention, except the description field.
The composer will receive more options and feature over future updates however.
If that option does not appear for you, in almost all similar cases plugins were to blame. There could be a plugin installed that is responsible. Only way to check is by deactivating all plugins except theme plugins. Then see if the option appears.
Thanks
Thanks for the response.
One solution would be to change the main header background to white on mobile, and hide the mobile menu, and create buttons or boxes to assist with navigation to other pages. I like the block with the ability to scroll posts on mobile like a slideshow. I really do not like the mobile plugin, and seems more work than it is worth. I would like to here success stories with it.
Still not seeing the message “add to the mega menu” like in this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/mega-menu/
The team member link and adding links in the description with the html code is helpful! They should add the ability to upload your own custom icon with links in the future.
Thanks!
Currently I just added a page called Featured with all the recent posts. Having no mega menu show up correctly on mobile is a bad thing. I would be great if we could not show the mega menu on mobile and just have regular drop down items. I believe it works on other themes on mobile as a drop down menu of pages.
Can we disable a menu item on mobile? The mega menu.
Thanks
Hi,
A mega-menu item present on desktop will be displayed like this on mobile

Mega-menus will not be displayed on mobile, instead they are converted to simple drop-down style, not removed. The only option to have a different menu entirely on mobile, would be the mobile plugin. This will add the option to set a different menu

If you are still missing the option to create a mega-menu here

And you tried deactivating all plugins except theme plugins, checked custom code or functions added in the theme files, custom code sections or through a child theme, then please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information. We will take a look. Also paste a link to this topic in the email.
Thanks
