Hello,
Some plugins may become incompatible with version 7. This is the case with major updates as the code is custom and not all plugins can tie into the code. The weather widget cannot be used outside newspaper 7 as it’s a theme feature not a plugin.
Thank you!
Hi,
In order to remove more from author you can use 2 methods:
The css method:
.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right {
display:none;
}
or you can edit the theme files: comment out or delete this part: http://screencast.com/t/Okmq7lxTDzGd
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hi,
In order to update from newspaper 6, you need to delete the old theme altogether and copy over the new theme via ftp. Then simply run the update script from the welcome screen: http://screencast.com/t/NXxqfbe4T
Before the update make sure you do a full backup of your current installation – https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups and then do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ update also the plugins that come with the theme files from the /plugins folder. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings.
The shortcodes have been changed so old ones will not work anymore. Please note that old files customization or custom css will not work with the new version and you will have to adjust or re-add them.
You will have to re-apply a few settings though as some elements change their order and number such as blocks or post templates so a post template from newspaper 4 for example post style 3, will not be post style 3 anymore but a different number.
You will only have to allow a half hour to restore your site to it’s previous setup.
Thank you!
Hi,
It should be safe to use the update patch as long as you do not have an older version than 6.6.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately we cannot offer any custom work at the moment. You can hire a freelancer to do it from sites like studio.envato.com
Thank you for your understanding.
Hi,
Unfortunately we have not tested this type of ads, but it seems that on the site you mentioned, text blocks are used for the content ads: http://screencast.com/t/1XT4fTITvrth. Try to add the code inside a text block (text mode not visual) and see if it will show up. The search in the sidebar does not work at the moment on the site you mentioned.
Thank you!
Hi,
please make sure your post slide has posts to display. If an empty category is filtered then the block will have nothing to display. Please access the block settings and try to filter all categories and make sure you have posts created.
Thank you!
Hi,
The block below does have extra padding added to it. Please check for any custom padding either in the textbox or on the design options of the block.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately these types of mail plugins are not tested and we cannot say for sure if they work out of the box or require further implementation. unfortunately this is the case with every premium theme as not all plugins are compatible. I’m sorry you had to find that out the hard way with premium plugins but unfortunately there is little we can do as plugin implementation falls beyond what support can offer you. Hopefully this will not be too hard of a challenge to implement, but you will require hiring a freelancer to do it or alternatively, try out a few free plugins and find one that works as expected.
Thank you!
Hi,
The grid style can be chosen from the block settings: http://screencast.com/t/w5uuTUU9
The colored styles are: styles 2 and 3
Thank you!
Hello,
1) The site title can be changed from the SEO Yoast plugin under titles sand meta. The theme cannot change the site title.
2) Maybe you have the social counter set in visual composer on a split row, not as a sidebar. Please edit your page and check the rightmost column of the layout.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please make sure you have the latest version of the social counter installed. Please update your theme to the latest version (newspaper 7) by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and then also update the plugins : visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ and use the same method to install the new version of social counter.
The social counter is not a live count and is affected by cache so please either clear your cache after you set it up or wait a bit for it to update. In @snledo’s case, it now works: http://screencast.com/t/J06krX6WhUsa
Thank you!
Hi,
I see you use the latest version of newspaper 6 (newspaper 7 released today) and the latest version of visual composer, so the plugin should work as expected. Please try to edit a page and access the backend editor like so: http://screencast.com/t/0oFIDEelhDj If the back-end editor still does not work, please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi,
The lightbox in our theme works as long as your image links to the media file (and not external links) and there are no links in the image caption. That is the way our modal image was designed. If you want to use external links, the modal image from our theme will not work properly. The wp lightbox 2 plugin was not tested officially. I ran a few tests and it seemed to work but this could not be the case anymore. you will have to try a few of them out or remove your links from the images and use the theme’s lightbox.
Thank you!
Hi,
We are not sure whether this solution will work or not, but concerning the allow origin, we always recomended this solution in the htaccess file that does the trick: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/
Thank you!
Hi,
You can add the number of words or letters (depending on the setting you selected in the theme panel) by hand as it will not show up in the panel:
<div class="td-excerpt">
<?php echo $this->get_excerpt(12);?>
</div>
Thank you!
Hi
Editor Picks feature used a block_7 to display all the post that are featured. If you do not have this kind of sorting on your post, this section will be empty. You can see this thing in core file, like this: http://screencast.com/t/K4iviQDpY . Here, http://screencast.com/t/dhQfZa3ooMaA you can find out how to make a feature post.
I will add this request to our list and we will update our documentation as soon as possible to include this information.
Thank you!
Hi,
The bullet points display properly in our theme as you can see here: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/120-er-visits-linked-synthetic-wordpress-nyc-past-week/
Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files in order to rule out a plugin conflict.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please make sure you update your theme to the latest version and also update your social counter plugin. Disable and delete the one currently active and install it again from the new theme version from the panel’s plugin section.
New big update released today so might want to check it out!
Thank you!
Hi,
As Chris suggested, you can ignore the message as the free version of visual composer cannot be activate it. The features work properly and no activation code is required. We will provide updates on a regular basis along with the theme update. The social counter plugin also does this sop please ignore that one as well.
Thank you!
Hello,
The best thing to do when starting out with a new theme is to read the documentation as you will find much useful information: https://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/
You can also check out our live demo to see the theme features in action: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/ (in the menu under the features item)
Our theme comes with predefined content blocks you can add to your pages and sidebars. On poages you must use visual composer for it and for the sidebars you can use the widgets section of wp.
You can also check out our youtube channel for video tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/user/tagdiv
Hope this helps.
Thank you.
Hi,
This is how the theme handles it’s featured video format: http://screencast.com/t/E9d8d1WJr1qL Maybe these are the metas you are looking for.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have checked your site but could not find any problems with it. The menus and images work as expected. Please provide more details so we can understand better how to help.
Thank you!
Hi,
Sorry, but we do not work on weekends, maybe that is why you did not receive an email. Sometimes emails go into the spam section, that is why we usually recommend our users to include a link to this topic so we can search for the url on our email client and find your request earlier. Please try a few of these methods posted here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/installing-demo-problem/ and if you still cannot get it to work please try to send us an email again and include a link to this topic so we can identify you. Please also specify you wrote the other one as most of the times the username from this forum does not resemble the email address we receive the request from and it is impossible to determine who is who…
Thank you!
