Please provide a screenshot with the error.
Also, please make sure the theme install was done correctly
Install via WordPress -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/

You have to upload it to the web somewhere, and then copy the link and then use the img button in the row up top. I used Dropbox and then shared, then copied link.

Hi,

Please make sure you are installing the actual theme, not the whole package
https://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/
So if you download the full theme package, once it is extracted the theme zip can be seen, like in this example

These are the theme install guides you can follow
https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/

If you previously used a child theme please deactivate it in case it is active. The newspaper has a child theme included in the package if you require one

Thank you!
