Hi,

A theme demo once installed will grab the style of that demo. That means specific colors and a few layout changes specific for each demo. On every demo you can edit exactly the same settings as the theme panel provides. I;m not sure what you men by edit the demo though there are things you can and things you cannot do. For one, you cannot replicate the look of one demo on another one which is a popular request we get. It’s either a full demo or not at all. You cannot only have parts of it and combine different parts of multiple demos.

Thank you!

Hello,

The related articles have an option to filter them by tag that can be found here: http://screencast.com/t/PHDHKwgUtkLY
This will grab the posts with the same tag, but there is no such functionality as you describe. Posts are treated in the same way. There is no priority for a post format or the other. Sorry.3
If you know your way around coding, you could use this function: https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Formats#Using_Formats to alter the related articles code:

Thank you!

Hello,

I will add this to our list for further testing. At the moment The first thing that comes to mind is that admin ajax is used for more features in our theme, not just the ajax view count. Ajax is used for the live search, for the blocks pagination and fort the blocks ajax filters. Blocking it in robots.txt will not make ajax not work anymore but it could influence google and it;s crawler when it comes to indexing your content. You can test it out as i cannot provide a precise answer for this request. Try it out with a bit of trial and error and see how it goes.

Thank you!

Hi,
The cdn has nothing to do with it. Simply install wp super cache and edit it’s files according to the link i posted above. A cdn is a different matter and not related to the mobile theme issue and wp super cache
Thank you!

Please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can login and investigate this issue. Please also include a link to this topic

Thank you!

Hi,

By fresh install we mean to create a sub-domain and install an unmodified version of wordpress and an unmodified version of the theme. No plugins just the default state. It will be a new install on the same domain, well sub-domain but the same hosting. This will rule out any custom code, plugin conflict or any other trace of external interference. It will be just the theme and the hosting. No extra influence. If the problem is still there on the sub-domain, there then there is definitely something hosting related, either file permissions, setup, or the admin ajax issue Alin mentioned as the login does not redirect on our end at all. So it;s clearly something local, related to your case in particular. Please create this sub-domain because i’m afraid Angels do not exist in the real world, not ones that can fix your site for you anyway :)) We do our best to help out but we have our limitations unfortunately.
Here is a guide to set up file permissions for Wp: https://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hello,
Unfortunately I cannot say for sure why the plugins do not work as they are not tested. We do have reports of rss aggreggator to work to some extent so you can give it a try but i cannot say for sure. Sorry.
Thank you for your message.

Hi,

Now that is a hard one i’m afraid. Our theme does not have such an option and it will be no walk in the park to do.
You can follow this guide as one of our users already did it and shared the code:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/css-class-based-on-primary-category-ini-newspaper-theme/
basically his method adds a custom css class on the body for each category and then you can target it with css and add styles to each category in particular using css. but you will need css skills to pull it off.

Thank you!

Hello,

Unfortunately we cannot offer any custom work at the moment payed or not. But we can guide you in the right direction. Please follow this topic that already answers the external featured images:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-can-we-use-external-image-link-as-a-featured-image/

Thank you!

hi,

this is the ceopde you need to change in wp super cache for it to work prioperly:
https://github.com/Automattic/wp-super-cache/issues/132
http://screencast.com/t/YLN48vYD0r9
For the moment it is the only solution we can come up with until they update their plugin

Thank you!

Hi,

Well Andrei will not receive the replies on his personal email as you receive it and see it :). We have our company email which receives hundreds of emails per day. It is hard to keep track. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Please send us your wp-admin details via email so we can login and investigate this issue. Please contact us at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can login and investigate. please also include a link to this topic so we know what the email is about (we tend to receive just the wp login and no other details. Email addresses do not match so we have to ask again for what purpose the admin was delivered in these cases)

Thank you!

No problem!
Best of luck on your project!

OK,

If you want to hide the menu completely, you must realize the logo is also part of the main menu container. The content will not move up if you only remove the menu: http://screencast.com/t/yOuyMmboz
if you want the content to move up, you need to remove the whole header content including the search button and logo like so:
http://screencast.com/t/RhVLLVsVDRO
Here is the code needed:
.td-header-menu-wrap-full{
display:none!important
}

if you want to keep the logo, I suggest selecting a different header style where the logo is not part of the menu container: https://forum.tagdiv.com/header-styles/

Thank you!

I sent you the necessary step for this fix. Any ad that is not adsense needs to be implemented using one of the div’s provided. Here is how the ad should look like: http://screencast.com/t/755e5mSM
this will add the theme style and padding as well as responsiveness for the ad. Otherwise issues can occur such as the one you are facing.
Thank you!

Hello,
You should also update the plugins after you install the new version of the theme so you can go ahead and delete the plugins from the wp plugins section. hit deactivate then delete: http://screencast.com/t/g9mOxxPDtx
As for the theme update. simply delete the newspaper folder. and then copy over the new one. it’s safer than renaming it. Delete the old and upload the new.
Thank you!

Hi,
OK, I get the picture now 🙂

1) Here is a neat video I found on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DZiyN07bbBM
You need to configure robots.txt in order for it to work properly.
You can also try this method: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/22654376/google-webmaster-error-blocked-urls-by-robots-txt-but-no-such-file
There is also a wp option that is causeing a lot of damage in this regard: https://wpshout.com/never-ever-check-discourage-search-engines/

2) We only recommend a sitemap from seo yoast. Use the seo plugin to create your sitemap as itl;s the tested and approved plugin https://kb.yoast.com/kb/enable-xml-sitemaps-in-the-wordpress-seo-plugin/

We have not tested any sitemaps from xml-sitemaps.com but we do not recommend external sourcess to create the sitemap

Thank you!

Hello,

I’m not sure how you want to modify the menu. Do you want to hide the main navigation? http://screencast.com/t/zIlAx7Wm
Please provide more details to your request.

Thank you!

Hello,

Well a cache plugin and cdn represent a large part of page speed so you might test with them active.
The core of both themes is the same so Chris’ customization should work on newspaper as well but I cannot say for sure unfortunately.
However this is not an official solution. It is user submitted so Chris is the one with the better answer for it as it’s his guide after-all 🙂

Thank you!

Hi,

Let me try to explain better. There is no setting to change the color of the category tag in our theme. the element is added across the whole site.
you can use a css code to change it;s color, but it will change the color for ALL category tags on your site to the same color. This is the code you need to add in the theme panel-> custom css box for this to haoppen:
.td-post-category{
background-color:red!important;
}
This code will make all category tags red: http://screencast.com/t/0lTOULi7fI`
Now if you want to go further in depth and only target a specific block, let;s say I want to target my first block on the page and not any other one. i can access the back-end of the page in visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/3X6PF4Vl
i need to move it on a separate row, not like it;s right now. Here is how it will look like: http://screencast.com/t/ZxXPuMkyF0Pw
We do this as you can only add an extra css class on a row, not on a particular block.
now we access row settings and assign a class name. you can name it anything. I will name mine: custom_class:
http://screencast.com/t/FlBUC25u then we hit save and updqate the page.
Now i can use this code:

.custom_class .td-post-category{
background-color:red!important;
}

http://screencast.com/t/yoFtyfEoNH

Thanks.

Hello,

Adding a new category template is possible but you will require coding skills for it. You can use the theme api system:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_category_templateadd/

Thank you!

Hi,

Well all of the ‘popular’ sorting options need views. If your post do not have any views after you activate the option, there will be nothing shown in the block. Here is a guide for the default popular 7 days sorting which specifies this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/7-days-post-sorting/
the counter starts after you activate the option. It will not count back 7 days. it will start at day 1 hour 1 and go from there.

Thanks

Hello,

If you do not use an adsense code, please use this implementation method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads-non-adsense-ads/

Thank you!

Hello,
Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
you cannot update the plugin unless we provide the update along with the theme. We will update visual composer in the next theme update.
Thank you!

Hi,

Maybe this will help: http://screencast.com/t/WyfAdTFv7tI
in order to check if a plugin is active or not, check the plugins section of wordpress: http://screencast.com/t/Ojt1qDQuqsDR
We recommend following a few wordpress tutorials before learning theme elements as you need to know the functionality of wordpress first.

Thank you!

Hello,

Our theme has no such settings so it will have to be made custom. You can replace the icons with css if you have the proper knowledge. it depends on the icon format you want to add. There are different implementation methods for different type of icons. Our icons are sprite icons added like so: http://screencast.com/t/F2t1lvJCE

Thank you!
