Hello,

This will not be so easy to do. You first need to create the block on a dummy page and filter it to show 3 posts and the category you want to show or specific posts by using block settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
If you want to have the black background you will also need a bit of css to adjust it as that element is custom made.
You can assign a custom css class to your element like so: http://screencast.com/t/nUwW45WrzGl, then set your background for the row to the color you want and use this css:
.mycustomclass{
margin-bottom: 48px;
padding-top: 48px;
background-color: #222;
}
After you set it up properly and you are happy with the results, it;s time to move it on posts.
You can use a do_shortcode function: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/ and place the shortcode for your block inside it. Then add the function to the theme files here: http://screencast.com/t/6zk43xa1t2hL

I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hello,
Thank you for your appreciation. Unfortunately the theme does not work this way. If you set any background color or image, the site will go into boxed mode as explained here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
Thank you!

Hello,
This is a js error that is originating from an optimization on your site maybe a minify? or a simple plugin conflict. If you know to have any js optimization, please remove it or if you are not aware of such optimization then please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Then check the mega menu again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hello,
This depends on where you want to add these sharing options.
The social counter does not allow adding other sharing options unfortunately as it;s a complex plugin and coding them in will not be so easy.
If you want to add them to the post sharing top or bottom, you can follow this example of adding a linkedin button so you can replicate the method for your sharing options: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/add-a-linkedin-button/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/so-i-added-a-stumbleupon-sharing-button/
If you want to add them to the header top or footer sharing buttons, you can follow this guide to add new icons:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/adding-social-media-services-under-social-networks/
Thank you!

Hello,
Please make sure you meet the requirements for newspaper: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ and also increase these parameters: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Sometimes plugins can also affect this so please also test the load without any plugins. Disable all of them except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Thank you!

Hello,
Our theme does not provide such an option so it has to be made custom. We can provide such a blank template but you will have to request it at contact@tagdiv.com as this forum does not accept file sharing.
Thank you!

Hello,
You might have removed the sidebars or wordpress could have stripped the sidebars of content. This is known to happen if a theme install goes wrong or if you create custom sidebars and use special characters for their names. If you create custom sidebars please do not use any symbols or language specific characters as wordpress has a problem with this and will crash by stripping the sidebar of content. The sidebar name cannot be seen on the front-end so please only use standard characters for it.
Thank you!

Hi,
This happens because you use newspaper 7 but you did not update your social counter plugin. The old social counter will not work with newspaper 7. Please deactivate and delete files for the social counter from the wp plugins section and install the plugin again from here: http://screencast.com/t/GYD790MwTJEA
Thank you!

Hi,
You will have to edit the theme files if you want to place the ad in the spot you mentioned. Every post style has it;s own file so you will have to make this modification for every post template that you use: http://screencast.com/t/sX3Wky0osNa
You can use this function to render shortcodes: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/do_shortcode/
Thank you!

Hello,
The theme itself is not full width. Only the header, footer and a few visual composer elements if set to display so. However, if you set any background image or color, the site will go into boxed mode so there is no way of having full width elements if you use backgrounds: https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
Thank you!

Hello,

The theme does not provide options to remove those setting. They can be removed either by hiding them with css like so:
.td-social-google, .td-social-pinterest{
display:none!important;
}
Or by removing the code for them from the php files: http://screencast.com/t/4n9S6AymqV

Thank you!

Hi,
A blank template is available for the newsmag theme as well. Please make a request via email for it at contact@tagdiv.com as this forum does not allow file sharing so we will provide it via email.
Thank you!

Hi,

Please contact your host and make sure that php multibyte module is installed and activated – http://php.net/manual/en/mbstring.installation.php
Let us know how it goes!

Thanks!

Hi,
The sidebar ad needs to be implemented with this method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads-non-adsense-ads/
If it;s a custom ad, and you have access to the image itself, you need to edit it in an image editor and decrease it;s size. Alternatively you can use css to scale it if you have the proper skills. Our theme provides ad dimensions but only for adsense.
Thank you!

Hi,
Thank you for your appreciation.
Unfortunately our theme does not have such a counter. It will have to be made custom. If you really need this customization we suggest hiring a freelancer from sites like studio.envato.com as we cannot offer any custom work at the moment.
Thank you!

Hi,
The module in the mega-menu will not receive the new thumbnail if you do not change the code here: http://screencast.com/t/6y2P5wG9KPR5
As for the regenerate, try to use this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/force-regenerate-thumbnails/
Thank you!

Hi,
I understand what you mean but unfortunately you cannot mix 2 demos into one. You can however use the black version as a starting point and then start customizing your theme settings and adjusting colors in the theme panel to resemble the video demo. A demo will only provide the style and demo content if you want it, but you can create your own content by adding video posts and grids to your homepage.
Thank you!

Hi,
You are using an older version of visual composer that has issues with version 4.5 of WP. You need to update your plugin to version 4.11.2 by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!

Hi,
Please update your version of visual composer to version 4.11.2 by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!

Hi,
I have checked your site but images are just fine: http://screencast.com/t/VYe8hFWCvmOQ
Please let us know if you still have trouble with this.
Thank you!

Hi,
Well an internal server error is exactly as specified. Please contact your host and let him know of the error. There is nothing we can do from our side unfortunately.
Please make sure the theme is installed properly. Use this guide to install it again via ftp: https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ then please check you meet the requirements: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
If visual composer still is not working, please update your plugin to the latest version by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
You can find the latest version of the plugin in the main theme package under the plugins folder. It’s named ‘jscomposer’.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hello,

If you set a background color or image, the site will go into boxed mode by default. If you do not want a boxed layout, you need to remove the background image or color you set in the theme panel. You can read more about this here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/background-introduction/
PS. Please do not post the entire source of the code on this forum. Use pastebin or other sources for posting long strings as it will break the forum search. It will always return your topic and people have to scroll through all of that to get to their search results.

Thank you!

Hello,
There seems something went wrong in the installation process. Please update your theme via ftp by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and make sure you update the plugins as well in newspaper 7
IF you still get this error, please also try to disable all plugins except visual composer and clear all caches.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hi,
Our theme provides a footer menu where you can add links. It can be added from the menus area of wordpress, but the menu will not position in the about us section. There is no such spot. The footer menu will display the links in the sub-footer section like so: http://screencast.com/t/iTlcw0Mr
Thank you!

Hello,

1) Unfortunately our theme does not allow such a secondary menu spot on the mobile menu. It will have to be made custom but it will be no easy task unfortunately as there is no such spot for a secondary menu and it has to be created from scratch. We suggest hiring a developer to help out on this task.
2) The space can be adjusted with css by using the browser inspector and removing any extra padding. The space comes from the author name and date. I will need access to your site so I can provide the proper code though.
3) The comments color can also be changed with css as there is no setting for them in the theme panel. You can use this code:

.td-module-comments a{
background-color:grey!important;
}

4) I have tested the zoom-out issue on our end but we do not get a zoom-out effect. Please also test our demo at demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper to see if you still gfet a zoiom on our demo. Try to write a comment and see. I tested on android and ios but there was no zoom. it could be a local issue, maybe due to plugins.
5) Again I weill need access to your site so I can figure out which module is being used there and check it;s code to see if there are any hidden options available to fill the space. For some the category tag or author/date was hidden with css as a design choice.
6) Again, I will need access to inspect the different module. The old access you provided for us via email does not work anymore so please create an account that is working so we can login on your site and send us the login info via email at contact@tagdiv.com Alswo include a link to this topic.
7) The code for each section of the pull-down filter can be found here: http://screencast.com/t/xhWykDVv
8) As for the custom title you set to your contact form, it will grab the theme accent color. If you want to change it you need to change the code a bit. Try this one:

<div class="block-title mycustomclass"><span>Contact Form</span></div>

and then use this css to style it:

.mycustomclass span{
background-color:Red!important;
}
.mycustomclass{
border-color:red!important;
}

Thank you!
