Hi, WordPress Manager has been reporting a medium security vulnerability since start of October for tagDiv plugin for the version 5.4.1 or under. WordPress installation is not detecting any updates for the plugin. Has this issue been addressed already? If so, can i update it manually? Thanks.

Hi,
Please make a full backup and update the theme to the latest version, Newsaper v12.7.3
Make sure that all current themes that are used before the theme update will also be used after teh theme update.
Thank you!

Hi,

Yes, there are situations when there are extra plugins interfering, when there is custom code interfering, or when you have custom modules from the host interfering.

Thank you!
