I’ve made several attempts to update my theme to the latest version and it keep breaking the site. Do you have any recommendations on how to get the theme updated without breaking the site or getting terminal errors?

Hello !

Unfortunately due to so many changes being done since version 7, I would recommend to simply re-design your website with Newspaper 10. This will work much faster because the plugins and all the interface from version 7 is simply to outdated to take such a big step.

Also in the re-design proccess I recommend to use either a PRO demo or only cloud library templates that offer you full customization possibility with tagDiv Composer.

Thank you !

We have over 8000 pages of content, so I don’t know if redesigning the site is an option.We we’re looking for a way to upgrade without a full site redesign. Is this not possible?

Hello !

Adapting this will require some custom work to be done. You can even try and update the Newspaper Theme as you can see in our guide here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

Let us know the result !

Thank you !

Hi Vlad,

I’ve attempted to install it and the plugins keep auto failing after selecting update. Also, every time I attempt to edit any page i get this error message:

Notice: register_rest_route was called incorrectly. The REST API route definition for wpra/v1/templates(?:/(?P[^/]+))? is missing the required permission_callback argument. For REST API routes that are intended to be public, use __return_true as the permission callback. Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information.

Hello !

I would recommend you to upload the new theme manually and also the plugins. Deactivate all the other plugins untill the update is finished. Also you can try to upload the theme and re-import your posts using a 3rd party plugin.

Let us know the results !

Thank you !

I’ve attempted to do that and I’m still having an issue. Also, is there anyway to expand the header so it covers entire screen even after being maximized. I’ve noticed that when I expand site on large screens the entire site sits in the middle of the page.
