Hi

I’ve checked your site and noticed that you’re not using our theme: http://screencast.com/t/gvRck7e3MVj If you have any issues using Newsmag theme please provide a link where I can inspect it and maybe I can help you.

Thanks!

Hi

I am not aware what plugin you use for rating and how this plugin works. Since is not tested with the theme there is a chance to appear some issues with its functionality. Try to deactivate all others plugins, except for Visual Composer and the rating plugin then test again. Also you can test this with a default wp theme to see if you get the same behavior.

Thanks!

Hi

Unfortunately the html structure of the button limit the customization possibility. The text inside the button can’t have a different color with this structure. Now the button can be customized like this: http://screencast.com/t/RkoJYjoC7sma

button, html input[type="button"], input[type="reset"], input[type="submit"]{
width: 100%!important;
border-top-left-radius:10px;
border-top-right-radius:10px;
border-bottom-right-radius:10px;
border-bottom-left-radius:10px;
}

You can modify the radius values as you want. Also if you want to change the button’s background color add this line:
background-color: red;

Hope this help.
Thanks!

Hi

Before making any modifications make sure you do a full backup to the database and your current wp install. This is a safety measure, in case something goes wrong you can always get back to the previous install. However by removing the indicated code the theme’s functionality won’t be affected.

Thanks!

Hi

Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/0AGmVmmocV

.td-grid-style-1 .td-module-thumb a:last-child:before{
background: none
}

Thanks!

Hi

The size that you indicated for your image is to small to fit the entire space from first thumb of big grid slide. As the image to fit well in that thumb must have an size at least by 741 X 486.
The slide it’s built in a different way, meaning that the image is stretched by css and even if is smaller than the slide surface, it will be displayed fine.

You can try this css to stretch the image on the entire surface of the thumb, but this may affect its quality:

.td_block_big_grid_2 .td-big-thumb .td-module-thumb img{
width: 100%;
eight: 100%;
}

Thanks!

Hi

The settings for excerpts are in theme panel > excepts: http://screencast.com/t/9xIIOFfNCa Please note that the limit set in theme panel will work only if you don’t have any content in excerpt field from post editor: http://screencast.com/t/vEUsO180 If you added your custom excerpts in that field they won’t be catted at the value set in theme panel.

Thanks!

Hi

I’ve checked your site and noticed that you’re using an older version of Visual Composer plugin. I am not sure if this affect the way your affiliate link works but you can try to update the plugin at the current version available with the theme on themeforest, V4.9, clear all caches, deactivate all others plugins, leave just Visual Composer active and test again.
If you still can’t manage to solve this issue please provide the code that you’re using via
http://pastebin.com/ so I can inspect this closer.

Thanks!

Hi

Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/W2iFJOrkCcRf

.widget_text {
margin-bottom: 10px;
}

You can change the margin value as you like.
Thanks!

Hi

I’ve checked your site and the images are displayed fine now: http://screencast.com/t/XHdRG5zKa This issue usually appear because of lazy load animation which’s script conflicts with one of the installed plugins. If this happens again you can try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, then activate them one by one see which one causes the problem.

Thanks!

Hi

@willysawa as @Chris pointed above the theme doesn’t ave an option for that. You can do it manually by inserting the link in post content like here: http://screencast.com/t/zwNq6HDkF – http://screencast.com/t/lAu8XKyf

Thanks!

Hi

Thanks @Chris!

@Nana this also could be a cache issue so try to clear all caches and test again. IF the problem persist please provide a link where we can inspect it.

Thanks!

Hi

First of all make sure you do a backup of your current theme/wp install and database also: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and in case something goes wrong in the update process you can always go back to the previous working version and try again. Then you have to edit the indicated file on your computer using a text editor. The file can be found in the folder that you downloaded from themforest here: http://screencast.com/t/92Jf4vsBt5QN After you make the changes upload the file via ftp on your server.

Thanks!

Hi

If you want to remove the animation from category page the argument for the function must be changed like here: http://screencast.com/t/F4JaGnzk Also note that if you’re using the Speed Booster plugin then you need to modify tagdiv_theme.min.js file.

Thanks!

Hi

Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test again. If the problem persist try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/UoHEgxhtvs

[class*="span"]{
margin-left: 0px;
}

Regarding the posts from big grid 5, they are displayed fine, but you have only four post set to be displayed in that grid: http://screencast.com/t/9OZNzD7Y Please make sure that you have enough post which correspond with the filters that you set for big grid 5, clear all caches and test again.

Thanks!

Hi

Hi

When the child theme it’s used for files customizations it’s a good practice to check update_log.txt file for each update and see what files had been modified so if those specific files are used in the child theme you will have to check your customizations to not break the functionality of the theme.

@rbemerson the way in which child theme works with our theme is by moving the file that you want to modify in Newsmag-child folder. You have to copy every file that you want to edit in child theme folder.
@DSLRMZ I have checked the child theme functionality and works fine. Please make sure that you’re using the child theme from the same package with the main theme: http://screencast.com/t/gwJPjoBUbvZ clear all caches, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and test again.

Thanks!

Hi @mefta

The theme’s blocks were designed to work on span12, span8 and span4 which means the you can use this coblinations of colons from Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/NQXVPSUdm7Th I’ve checked your site and noticed that you’re usin a combination by span5 + span3 + span4, that’s why the block 14 exceed the allowed space. http://screencast.com/t/MPNgvXjL This issue will be corrected if you use three colons with span4: http://screencast.com/t/CeDSKUe96 – http://screencast.com/t/W4VHr0h94Jq

Thanks!
