Hi,

do the majority of your users log in ? Or the site is read only for the majority of the users. If the majority of your users do not have to log in (like it’s here on the forum) then you can get very good results with full page caching + cloudflare.

Hi,

this are our settings: http://screencast.com/t/R7UgN7ZeU We tested them and everything works ok. The javascript autminify may create problems so please test each optimization independently.

the railgun service is 200$/month and we did not test it.

Hi,

for a cdn, try out cloudflare… you have to change your main domain DNS to it but once it’s done, you have a lot of flexibility of what it’s cached and what it’s not. If you switch to cloudflare, try to not enable the advanced optimizations… they tend to interfere not only with our theme but with a lot of web apps.

Hi,

this is our settings on some of our servers: http://screencast.com/t/augxxSK6H6

still in the advanced tab : http://screencast.com/t/NKQBI6MvBTIp we generally use manual caching cleaning since we are not posting so often.

Hope this helps 🙂

Hi,

we recently fix a couple of issues with the metadata. Can you please try to update to the latest version of Newsmag.

Hello all,

I do not believe this is an issue with our community… Your site is available on the net and anyone can try to attack it. In general all most of the WordPress sites have strange traffic, there seems to be a lot of bots that crawl for insecure WordPress sites. The best way to protect yourself is what Chris S recommended here https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/newspapertagdiv-powered-websites-showcase/page/4/#post-70075 . In addition to the very good recommendations I also use Cloudflare CDN, it basically sits between your server and the internet and it’s very efficient when it comes to attacks.

Hello,

I would recommend a dedicated server with at least 8 GB of ram. If the server is with SSD storage that will help with full page caching.

For cdn, I would recommend that you use cloudflare with it’s 20$/month plan https://www.cloudflare.com/plans . This cdn also caches other static content besides the images and it can be configured to cache the full pages in case of traffic spikes.

The wordpress install should be configured to cache the full pages with https://ro.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/ – the SSD will help here. Or if you have at least ~16GB of ram you can use w3 total cache + memcached to cache the pages in RAM.

With a smaller budget, the theme should run on a VPS with 8 GB of ram + free cloudflare plan + caching plugin, please note that the theme only uses about 20% of the resources, the rest is used by WordPress itself, we benchmark it vs the default themes and I do performance audits periodically. My conclusion is that WordPress is a huge application 🙂 but if properly configured it can handle traffic well, mostly helped by full page caching.

Hello all,

from what we know until now, we can offer free support without restrictions from envato. At most we may give a bigger priority to people who have a support package but we will still continue to answer all questions in the same time frame like we do now. We will respond to all tickets here, on themeforest and via email like we do now even after the 6 months pass so please don’t worry.

We try to offer the best support possible, our support team of 5 is right here with us, we don’t outsource anything and we are constantly trying to improve.

Thanks you!

Hello,

the smart list 1 uses a slider script called iOS slider. All the content is already on the page but it’s hidden and it shows up only when the slider is moved. The slider also updates the permalink of the post when it switches to another slider. Google should handle this well but I can have a look at your site if you give me an url.

Hi,

I’ve finally fixed the issues but the we overwrite the output variable specifically to not allow plugins to modify it. If the user selects our gallery we want to make sure that, that’s what it gets.

Hi, you can also try to add the url manually using this from the block settings: http://screencast.com/t/fLgm1JarR

HI,

I’ll try to help you out, here is what you should try:
– inspect the log files for errors (errorlog). Hopefully we can get at least a waning or a fatal error. If no errors are in the log.. then it’s a bit more complicated.
– it may be some conflict with one of the save_post hooks in the theme. You can find all of them here: http://screencast.com/t/lzbje8fYH8pl . Try to comment them all and see if the plugin manages to post. (You have to comment the lines that starts with add_filter(‘save_post’, ) .
– also please try to disable all other plugins (we’ve seen some weird stuff 🙂 on some plugins)

We have a couple of custom made scripts that add posts pragmatically (we use them when we make the online demos) and they do work with our theme as expected. Also the auto import feature of the theme ads posts via code.

Hi,

You can comment the line until we find a permanent solution. td_less_editor-style.php is a less compiler for the backend tinymce when you edit a post. We will remove it soon and replace it with a static css and our custom css interpreter.

Salut,

Nu cred ca se poate extinde clasa usor, toate locurile unde e folosita trebuie schimbate sa foloseasca clasa noua. Momentan nu ne-am gandit la o solutie care sa permita modificarea usoara a fiserului acela, este foarte multa functionabilitate legata de el si nu am resusit sa il incarc prin autoload… eventual sa adaug un if class_exists in el sa se poata inlocuii clasa cu alta via child theme

Hi,

I would suggest to instantiate the WP_Post class. I did not test that yet. We have to make sure that modules get a WP_Post object because we depend on methods from it.

Hi,

I’m very sorry for this. We had a lot of problems with the update from V4 -> V6 because it’s basically a new theme that we release for free to our existing customers. Can you connect via ftp? go via ftp in /wp-content/plugins and delete the td-social-counter . Or via wp-admin disable the plugin first and an option to delete it will appear. After you remove the social counter you can install the new version via the theme panel and most of the stuff should start to run normally. also please read this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

Hi,

for wordpress widgets and other widgets that are not made by us you can change the color by changing the site wide accent color from the theme panel or via custom css.
If you give us a link we can try to make a css snippet for you.

Hi,

do you have at least Version 6.3.1 ? We support for now sidebar position and custom sidebars. If you want to use a different single template… just rename one of the single templates to single-yourcustomposttype.php in a child theme and it should work as expected.

What options do you need besides the ones that are now? We are just started support for CPT 🙂 so please be patient with us until we iron out all the usability issues and until we have all the functionality in place.

Hi,

I don’t really understand what you are trying to achieve… On specific pages you want to remove the widgets? Or the entire sidebar? We don’t have hooks on widgets 🙁

Please give me more details.

Hi

the Post Masonry Grid is a visual composer block and we generally don’t interfere with the function of the default blocks. Please try to update your visual composer plugin with the latest that comes with our theme. That may fix the issue. If the issue still persists, get back to me and we will open a ticket to the plugin author.

Radu O.

Hi,

it seems to work if you are referring to that button: http://screencast.com/t/0yY9YcbGp

Hi Chris and gravernews,
sorry for my delayed reply, we missed this message by mistake (we’re updating the back end of this forum to allow easier collaboration for our support staff)

Regarding the adsense issue… we too experience strange errors with some ads, unfortunately we don’t have a solution for this yet.

The main difference between the themes is the design and newspaper also has some additional header styles, big grids and category templates. The two themes share the same core.

If your testing site is local – Can you access this file?

From the cryptic error message that my code generated it looks like your server could not retrieve our demo image due to a 404 not found error. If you want I can check this out if you provide us with wp-admin access via email: contact@tagdiv.com (please paste a link to this forum thread in the email). This error is very strange and we did not encountered it before.

Hi,

are you sure you tried the same fix? We did not change that part of the theme. I will also double check this.

Hi,

The RSS feed is generated by WordPress, the theme dosn’t interfere with it… my initial guess would be that the server time and timezone is set up incorrectly. For best results, the server timezone should be set to a timezone appropriate to the localization of the WordPress install. Unfortunately we cannot provide you with assistance regarding server configurations… I’m very sorry for this but we also rely on external help for server configurations and don’t have in house expertise.

[edit:] ok I’ve asked around:
on linux you can run something like this to check the timezone:
cat /etc/timezone for Italy it should be: Europe/Rome . If it’s something else or you cannot ssh to your server, I would strongly suggest to contact your hosting provider and ask about how you can change this.

If you cannot use the theme we can provide you with a full refund.
