Some issues after updating from v4

Posted in: Newspaper

Hi guys, let me make long story short – I’ve used pirated verison of theme for a while, set it up (version 4), loved it, and decided to buy updated version 6. So here I am.

website in question is – https://www.coma.lv/

1) fonts. I’ve change any possible setting in theme, however I could not get my headings and titles to change to anything but Roboto.

2) boxes with golden border here – https://www.coma.lv/photo/wedding/ before the update boxes with golden border were positioned nicely on the right hand side of each block. Now they shifted below other blocks. As soon as I remove border, they move back to the right.

3) section “Типы сайтов и цены на разработку” here – https://www.coma.lv/wordpress-website-development/, middle block is lower than others. When I change from H3 to Paragraph – everything is ok.

Hello,

First of all, you have to understand that newspaper 6 is a totally different theme. It was built from scratch in order to provide a better ‘cleaner’ theme with many improvements and possibilities.
Many of the previous settings will not work in newspaper 6 so you have to change a few settings in your new theme version.

1) You can change ALL fonts of the theme from the theme panel. You just have to find the ones you need. For headings H1-H6 the option is here: http://screencast.com/t/SGl89bcpxhI4 for posts and for pages they are in the page section. If it is a module title, you have to find the modules and blocks article titles. There are a lot of font settings and they can be a bit confusing.
2) Shortcodes were changed in version 6 so you have to rebuild your page in visual composer. Also the CSS code for styling was changed in the new version so ALL custom modification made in version 4 will not work anymore
3) If you have custom modification to your titles, it will not work anymore. Please remove all CSS customization you had in the previous theme version.
As an alternative, you can use this css to adjust the title:

.page-id-8427 h3{
margin-top:0!important;
}

I hope this helps.

Thank you!

3) I’ve rebuild whole section, and it still the same. When I duplicate this section and preview my page – it looks good. As long, as there are single section – the middle section is lower.

This issue seems to be fixed somehow. I’ve deleted blank lines in another block and this problem is gone.

Here is screens with font issues:

I’ve set title, h1, h2 to Helvetica (my title is H1) and to make sure I’ve even set it to uppercase, but nothing works. I dont have and custom CSS for fonts.

Hello,

The page that you tried to change uses visual composer elements (a text block more precise). These titles will not be changed from the theme page fonts. You can change the modules and blocks font as well but the text box is a visual composer element and it’s title is not controlled by the theme. You can target it with css if you want to change it:
this will override all your headings to the font you want:

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6{
font-family: Helvetica Neue!important;
}

Or if you want to target just the text block:

.wpb_text_column h1{
font-family: Helvetica Neue!important;
}

Thank you!

Could you please tell me how to keep same fonts on mobile? It seems that on mobile fonts are Times New Roman, and on desktop arial or roboto.

Hi,

The theme has no control to change fonts on mobile or desktop. The fonts are kept the same. Please provide more details where the fonts are changed because i could not find changing fonts upon inspecting your site.

Thank you!

Looks ok on desktop, even when I resize browser window to make it look as on mobile. However, when opened on iphone in safari looks like this – https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/2547869/screens/IMG_7868.PNG

Hi,
I have checked your website on all the phones i could find including iphones with safari and could not tell the difference. The font is the same both in the emulator and on the mobile phones themselves.
Thanks.
