Hi,
The features that you cannot use are extensions and add-ons but the base functionality does not get affected in any way. This is the free version. If you want to be able to use ALL the features provided by the plugin developer, you will need to buy the plugin. But even so, not all features will be tested and adapted to work with the theme. Even the base plugin has to be tested and adapted to work that is why we recomend using only the one we provide and not any other version.
Thank you!

Hi,
Thank you for your kind words, It’s always pleasant to see our work is appreciated.
1) The search button does not have the option to be moved overt to the top menu. You can however implement the standard wordpress search box through the theme files. you can add this code:
echo do_shortcode('[vc_wp_search el_class="mycustomsearch"]'); in the top menu file here: http://screencast.com/t/zdLBnDZoox6 but it will require further customization.
2) Please provide an example of where the tags appear exactly.
3) There is no option to order the sub-categories. They are generated automatically so there is no way to have them in a particular order at the moment.
Thank you!

Hi,
Unfortunately the theme has no settings for this but you can use a bit of css to do it:
.td-search-wrapper{
display:none!important;
}
Thank you!

Hi,
That is because you are using the filter setting wrong. It needs the category ID, not the category name. you can get the category ID from here: http://screencast.com/t/LHumOs1Fi
Thank you!

Hi,
The sidebars can be customized from the wordpress widgets area: http://screencast.com/t/hcaYZzxz0lu
Please follow this guide to learn more about sidebars: https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/
Thank you!

Hi,
The code you showed is part of the theme so there is no injected code there. For security reasons, you can follow this thread just to be on the safe side: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/security-issues/
But it does not look like any injected code anywhere. https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/3024344?hl=en
Sometimes testing tools can have mixed results.
Thank you!

Hello,
Category tags can be enabled or disable for a specific module, but if that module is used on different blocks, then there is no setting from the theme panel to filter this out.
You can however use a css code to hide the category tags for other big grids like so:
.td_block_big_grid_1 .td-post-category,
.td_block_big_grid_4 .td-post-category,
.td_block_big_grid_6 .td-post-category,
.td_block_big_grid_7 .td-post-category{
display:none!important;
}
Thanks.

Hi,
Unfortunately we have not tested the instant articles of facebook with our theme. We have no idea of the implementation so I cannot provide an answer for your request. you can however search for other threads on this forum for users that have tried it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/support-for-facebooks-new-instant-articles/
Thank you!

Hello,
The search widget template can be changed from here: http://screencast.com/t/6jSvjgpUq
Thank you!

Hi,
We have no plan for this at the moment but I will add this request to our list of updates and hopefully the dev. team will decide to implement it in a future release.
Thank you!

Hi,
In order to trim down the thumbnails as much as possible you need to reduce the thumbnails used on your site. That means reducing the number of different modules used on different templates from template settings and deactivating the thumbs from here: http://screencast.com/t/PDRdb88xk
After you do this please use the force regenerate plugin to regenerate thumbs as it will also delete the old thumbs and unused ones.
I hope this helps.

@blogwire
Please provide more details as how you want the homepage designated to a category. A page is a page and a category page is a totally different page. There is no way to link 2 different pages to each other via the breadcrumbs. except for the fact that the homepage is the base for every other part of the website the breadcrumb ‘home’ option will always be present in the breadcrumbs as the first option.
Thank you!

Hello,
This depends on the version you want to update from. If you already had the latest version before the update was released then you can use the patch that comes with the theme and simply replace the files provided there via FTP: http://screencast.com/t/et2UQjUG2T1j and then update your plugins especially visual composer as it has issues with the new version of wordpress.
Thank you!

Hi,
The site will go into boxed version if ANY background color or image is set. Please clear these 2 fields:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ and for the colors, even a white color counts. You need to press the clear button: http://screencast.com/t/NcGItmY5
Please note that a background image or color can be set to categories as well so category archives and posts belonging to that particular category will be boxed versions: http://screencast.com/t/QR85JUOXv.
Thank you!

@ALL
If you do a quick search through the forum you will see that the new version of wordpress broke visual composer. It;s best to hold on to the updates for a wile until the plugins and themes can test and apply fixes if needed. The best thing to do is to disable automatic updates.
Please update your theme to the latest version by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and very important: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Make sure you clear your cache and reset cdn files afterwards.
Thank you!

Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Now check your pages again and if you still have problems please provide details to what they are and a link to the specific pages.
Thank you!

Hello,
The default fonts are roboto and open sans. You can change the fonts for different parts of the theme using that menu. There are lots of elements in our theme and they need to be targeted separately and this is the reason there are too many options in the fonts section. Unfortunately there is no single setting to change the default font. If you want an easier way to change the default font overall please follow this topic:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/do-i-really-need-to-change-all-the-text-fields-for-fonts/
As for the link colors they are mostly changed from the theme accent color: http://screencast.com/t/nbzqxp8b but they can be changed for every block in particular in visual composer in block settings.
Than you!

Hi,
Unfortunately the entire wp_booster folder will not work from the child theme. We are working on updating this but at the moment it will not work. Child themes have their limits and this is one of them unfortunately.
Thank you!

Hello,
You do not need any other plugins except the ones that come bundled with the theme. visual composer is already in the package itself and can be installed from here: http://screencast.com/t/FyIBKdtd9ee
The best thing to do when starting out is read the documentation (top right of this page) There is a lot of useful information in there that will help you a great deal.
In order to edit the demo content you can simply access the dashboard and edit posts, categories and pages like you normally would in wordpress.
As for the homepage, there is no text to edit as there are only visual composer elements present: http://screencast.com/t/t746iJfrI
Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can also check our youtube page for video tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/user/tagdiv
Hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hello,
Unfortunately the theme does not control the search results as we use the default wordpress search function. It’s a wordpress setting you need to customize. There are lots of topics regarding the search widget in the worpdress forums.
As fort he error in the search results, there is a bug with module 16 so please change the search template module from here until we release a fix for it: http://screencast.com/t/zezAZYoA4
Thank you!

Hi,
You can try the ftp method and replace the files directly. (option A) and the use this guide to update visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!

Hi,
Unfortunately we have no ETA on the next update as it’s still too early but we hope we can provide the fixes as soon as possible.

@bowman9991 Different tools provide different results regarding SEO. Try a few alternatives to see what I mean, there will be different results. As for the schema information, we already have schema information implemented: http://screencast.com/t/sAXCAo3cRSK
Thank you!

Hi,
It is a plugin, YES. Icons will not work without it. First install the plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/font-awesome-4-menus/ and then use the code for the icons from the above reply.
Thank you!

Hi,
1) I have checked your site but the masonry grid seems to be working: http://screencast.com/t/rjnC7yH0hq
2) Please try to add a sidebar to the post settings as thjese override the category settings. If the sidebar position is set to none in the post setting, it will override any other option from the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/V9RHt8010D

Thank you!
