Hi

You can try to regenerate your sitemap and submit it again to google after you delete some posts/pages. The errors won’t dis-spear immediately from webmaster console because google need some times until will re-index the site again.
Yes you could do a clone for 404 page but to achieve that you will need a bit of codding. In general you could use the same code as for 404 page and change/customize the layout where you thing is needed.

Thanks!

Hi

Please address us via email at contact@tagdiv.com including a link to this conversation and also give us wp-access so we can have a closer look at this and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
Thanks!

HI

Each post template is generated from two files single-teplate-x.phph + loop-template-x.php and depending by post template each file generate a specific part. The code that you’re using does not seems to be correct, there are some html errors and also $author_id is not a valid parameter for the_author_meta() function.
For more details about how can you use this function please check wp’s documentation: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_author_meta

Thanks!

HI

A) Yes indeed our theme removes the front-end part of Visual Composer’s page-builder because it’s not working properly with theme’s blocks. We also added 25 new blocks which works only with our theme. We don’t recommend any third-party plugins or additional ad-ons for our theme. The theme is tested and work fine only with Visual Composer plugin which is included in the path available o themeoforest. You can try additional software if you want but we can’t support it and also we can’t say how will work with Newspaper.
B) The theme is tested and search page works fine with any module used, including module 17. I am not sure why the page breaks on your site but you can try to deactivate all plugins, except Visual Composer, clear all caches then test again. If the problem persist please provide your site url so we can have a closer look.
C) We need site url for further investigations.
D) Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css:

.td-social-google, .td-social-pinterest {
display: none!important;
}

E) The theme uses default wp implementation for authors and there is no option which allows you to add multiple authors for a post. You can try a plugin with similar functionality but we didn’t made any tests in this regard and I can’t make any recommendation.
F) You can set a primary category for each post, primary category will be displayed on modules and blocks if is set: http://screencast.com/t/7KmMi5qqKCd
G) Yes you can filter posts by multiple categories using this field from block settings: http://screencast.com/t/bsMWXZCAUUYh For more details in this regard please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/

Hope this helps.
Thanks!

Hi

The selector which holds mobile menu background is .td-menu-background:before so you can use it to change the gradient as you want. The gradient color can be generated using an online tool, here is a css example made with http://www.colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/ – http://screencast.com/t/Ik0xn1biwP

.td-menu-background:before {
/* Permalink - use to edit and share this gradient: http://colorzilla.com/gradient-editor/#d0e4f7+0,73b1e7+24,0a77d5+50,539fe1+79,87bcea+100;Blue+Pipe+%231 */
background: #d0e4f7; /* Old browsers */
background: -moz-linear-gradient(top, #d0e4f7 0%, #73b1e7 24%, #0a77d5 50%, #539fe1 79%, #87bcea 100%); /* FF3.6-15 */
background: -webkit-linear-gradient(top, #d0e4f7 0%,#73b1e7 24%,#0a77d5 50%,#539fe1 79%,#87bcea 100%); /* Chrome10-25,Safari5.1-6 */
background: linear-gradient(to bottom, #d0e4f7 0%,#73b1e7 24%,#0a77d5 50%,#539fe1 79%,#87bcea 100%); /* W3C, IE10+, FF16+, Chrome26+, Opera12+, Safari7+ */
filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.gradient( startColorstr='#d0e4f7', endColorstr='#87bcea',GradientType=0 ); /* IE6-9 */
}

Thanks!

HI

Unfortunately by default wordpress does not have such an options and the theme does not change the default behavior. However this could be possible if you add a new meta value. Here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/YLZSuF1x – http://screencast.com/t/b8LsLtNl – http://screencast.com/t/n69Vq5ZZU http://screencast.com/t/ZlkrXLR7kS

	if (isset($_GET['post'])){
		$post_id = $_GET['post'];
	}
	add_post_meta($post_id, 'alias', '', true);

<?php $alias = get_post_meta($td_mod_single->post->ID, 'alias', true);
                    echo $alias
                    ?>

This is just a basic example which can be customized in many different ways. Basically after you add the post meta is needed to be displayed on post pages. To achieve that must be edited the file which generate the post template used.
Note that this task involve some coding skills in order to be completed. If you still need assistance on this my advice is to look for someone who can help you with implementation as we can’t offer custom work at the moment.

Thanks!

Hi

Do you want to display in more article box the Facebook page instead of some posts? If so then you will need to make some changes in theme’s core files. Firs you need to configure your the widget the will be displayed following fb’s documentation: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/page-plugin
After everything is setup pres Get Code button and paste the code as follows:
– this code in header.php: http://screencast.com/t/arry8BxPryAO
– this code http://screencast.com/t/h7at1zcnGi in td_more_article_box.php http://screencast.com/t/mhDnJoqA88cf – http://screencast.com/t/omeY8Seqw4fK
The result should be like here: http://screencast.com/t/EDDSqjEVi9
You can also change box’s title from theme panel > translate section: http://screencast.com/t/2T7p1B6SW

As a security measure make sure you do a full backup to you current wp-install before making any changes in theme’s code: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups

Hope this helps.
Thanks!

Hi

Making any changes in page’s layout may have secondary consequences and in some situations additional customizations may be required. I’ve made a quick test with given code and worked fine on my end but with a more complex structure for the page issues may occur.
As for LATEST ARTICLES title it can be changed from theme panel > translate section: http://screencast.com/t/bKBZeD2WbL

Thanks!

Hi

For post template 13 you need to edit loop-single-13.php file and paste the code here: http://screencast.com/t/vzn3i0Y3HmCe you can also insert the button inside td-post-content container.

Hope this helps.
Thanks!

HI @laberrausch and @bilal-altaf

Make sure that you’re using V 4.1 of social counter plugin ant also ensure that Facebook app id and security key are properly generated.
Let us know how it goes and if the problem persist please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.

HI

I am not really sure I understand the structure that you’re using because by default in WordPress you can’t assign categories to pages so Home > Page > Category does not really work. Please provide more details about what you’re trying to do and also a link where we can inspect this and maybe we can help. However breadcrumbs structure is very hard to change but maybe we can point to a solution for your request.

Thanks!

Hi

The theme does not control the informations displayed by google in SERP, it depends on google if stars rating are displayed or not. I’ve also checked a post from our demo and stars rating appear in search results: http://screencast.com/t/ENBSvhdbYl – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-intel-claims-new-ssd-750-drives-are-its-fastest-ever-for-desktop/
When you make major changes in site’s html structure, like switching from one theme to another, google crawler needs some time until will understand the new structure and some infos may not be displayed for a while. Try to regenerate your sitemap and submit it to google, it may help: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/

Thanks!

Hi

I’ve tried to access your site using several mobile devices but each time I get redirected to google.com http://screencast.com/t/Gwvk0fy9pV Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches then test the site again. Also check the .htaccess file for any redirect rules and remove them.

Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!

Hi

Please make sure that you’re using V 4.12 of Visual Composer plugin, this version is included in current theme’s path available on themeforest, deactivate all plugins except VC, clear all caches then test again.

Thanks!

HI

The mobile theme works only for mobile devices, not for tablets so there is nothing to be deactivated.
If this is not what you mean please provide more details about what you’re trying to do so we can inspect it closer and get back to you with a more accurate answer.

Thanks!

Hi

Post views are stored in a field from database which for our theme is post_views_count: http://screencast.com/t/GcBHcpTF To get the views prior to Newsmag you need to identify in what filed stored them your previous theme then make a sum of them.

Thanks!

HI

1. Please make sure that you’re using V 3.1 of Newsmag theme, this version is available on themeforest at the moment, also try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Compressor, clear all caches then test the site again.

2. Please provide your site url so I can have a closer look and get back to you with a solution.
Thanks!

HI

Thanks for your suggestion, I’ve added it on our todo list and when the time comes developers will consider it for future updates. However this may take some times as we have a very long list with feature requests and we have to take them one by one.
A temporary solution would be to use media queries with css in theme panelo > custom code > custom css:

@media (min-width: 768px){
.single .td-post-featured-image{
display: none!important;
}
}

This code will hide the featured image on posts for desktop and tablets and on mobile they will be visible.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!

HI

Please note that all this customizations takes times and many tests in order to be achieved. We can only offer support for current theme’s features but not custom work, sorry. I’ve already provided some custom css which can be used as example fr further customixations. Also here you can check our tutorial about how to use browser’s inspector to pick the right selectors: https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
and here you can take a look at some css tutorials which may help; http://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

Thanks for your understanding!

HI

Unfortunately the theme does not have an option to set a background image for header, sorry. However this may be possible using some custom code in the file which generates the header style used. Please provide your site url so I can have a closer look and maybe I can help.

Thanks!

Hi

I am not sure why this happens on your site and also I can’t duplicate the issue on my end. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge the cdn if you’re using then test again.
Let us know how it goes and if the problem persist please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.

Hi

Animated gif images do not work on modules so any animated image which will be set as feature image will not work, it only works if you add it in post content: http://screencast.com/t/bPTGx1Ko
