Hi,

1) If you want to have the homepage exactly like the one in our demo, then simply install the default demo with content from here and it will be created automatically for you: http://screencast.com/t/pxg0tmg8Bgxa
If you do not want the demo content, then please follow this guide to see how to use visual composer and make use of modules and blocks to get your desired layout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ss-BEobegAw
Please read the documentation as well as you will find lots of useful information in there about the theme settings.
2) The sidebars can be found here: http://screencast.com/t/rhLu9CAWfLFJ

Here is a link to the documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/

Thank you!

Hi,
you can simply replace the word blog with a ‘space’ in the translations section here: http://screencast.com/t/9XJikgqPo
Thanks.

Hi,
The date on the top menu can be changed from here: http://screencast.com/t/l9RiR7r6vkS
Thank you!

Hi,

1)I’m not sure what sharing buttons you are referring to but our theme has no such option of adding bitly shortlinks. It will have to be done custom. If you are referring to the article top and bottom sharing, then here is where the code is being created: http://screencast.com/t/llK8ex6aI
2)you can remove the search icon from the code by commenting out or deleting this part: http://screencast.com/t/R1WLS2cH
3) The call to action button color can be changed from the settings for it here: http://screencast.com/t/M4sRTLzbMwa

Thank you!

Hi,
1) Unfortunately there is no setting for this. It will have to be made custom with css. You can make a block title orange from the block settings, but the ‘separator’ styling must be added custom.
Maybe this will help: https://css-tricks.com/line-on-sides-headers/
2) Unfortunately the predefined content cannot be edited. If you want to have better controll over the widgets inside the footer, please use a blank footer style and add your own widgets using footer 1, 2 and 3 from here: http://screencast.com/t/n7XIcVaytzhR
Thank you!

Hi Rachel,
You can add a block to the post files using a do_shortcode function like so:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_12][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?>
You can add this code to the post template you use:
http://screencast.com/t/pXGvKb7aZ
The tricky part will be to make them detect the category of the post. The blocks were not created to detect anything so this feature will have to be created from scratch. You will need to hire a developer for it as there is no easy solution.
Thank you!

Hi Rick,

Unfortunately there is no option for this but you could try to use the td-all-devices class and simply hide the ad for mobile with css.
<div class="td-all-devices"><a href="#"><img src="http://localhost/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/rec728.jpg"/></a></div>

Thank you!

Hi,
You can change the author from the post settings or in the bulk edit for more posts at once: http://screencast.com/t/E4vZWNW8t
As for the ads, our theme has no such options, but you could use the ‘adrotate’ plugin.
Thank you!

Hi,
Buddypress is compatible with our theme, but that only means it works with the theme, not that there will be implementation from one plugin to another. Woocommerce has this by default as they have an agreement with visual composer. We are not the authors of any of these plugins so we cannot dictate what visual composer will contain or not. Buddypress seems to need an add-on if you want to use it together with visual composer. That depends only on the plugin authors and we have no say in it.
Thank you!

Hello,

This has been a great misunderstanding. We were talking about 2 very different versions of the theme. In newspaper 4 there really were those files in the root folder, but that was a quite a long time ago and the code was since then changed entirely. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I should have asked about the version you use as the code looks totally different now and that part is nowhere to be found in newspaper 6.
Here is a simple solution to this issue. Thre is a plugin that already does this and is called: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-sort-topic-replies/. This will add an extra field to the forum with a sorting order for the replies: http://screencast.com/t/Qtj8Y3nUC29L
If you do not want to use the plugin, maybe you can replicate the code used there and implement it in the files directly.

I hope this helps and sorry for the inconvenience.
Thank you!

Hello,
The text was added with a link to create a top menu for your theme. If you do not want it, you can create a dummy top menu and simply chose to hide the top menu from the header section: http://screencast.com/t/fmNxunH1Rl
Thank you!

Hi,
I’m not sure what subtitles you are referring to as our blocks only display the post tile and the excerpt. The post subtitles are not displayed. Please provide an example of these subtitles that are not displaying.
Thank you!

Hi,
Our theme has no option for floating ads. Those need to be made custom if you need them. You can follow this topic to see an example of how it can be done: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/several-config-questions/
Thank you!

Hi,

You can use this css to fix the fixed height and have the author boxes display properly:
.td_top_authors .item-details{
height:100%!important;
}
.td_top_authors .td_mod_wrap{
padding-top:2px!important;
padding-bottom:2px!important;
}
.td-authors-description p{
margin-bottom: 5px!important;
}

I also reduced the margins and padding a bit.

Thank you!

Hi,
The GD library is a requirement for wordpress and it can create issues with images if it’s not installed on the server. Glad you solved it!
Thank you!

Hi,
Unfortunately i ran a few tests but the background will not work with an iframe. You can add your animations to a post or page, but you cannot add it as a background. Our theme background was designed to work with images from the media library, not html animations. If you truly need this customization, you will need to hire a freelancer to adapt the theme code so and implement this type of animations.
Thank you!

Hi,
Yes, sorry about that, the custom post template can be changed to another one besides the default by following the CPT guide and changing the style manually.
As for the error I will pass this information on to the dev team.
Thank you!

Hi,
The code was added manual in case something went wrong with visual composer and the stylesheet did not load. In the current version though visual composer updated their plugin and this code can be removed. We will also remove it from the theme in the future version if it proves to do nothing else. We will further test this issue.
Thank you!

Hi Magnus,

It’s best when you start off with the theme to start with the documentation as it will provide valuable insight of the theme settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/

1)You most likely have the homepage set to ‘latest posts’ from the wp settings: http://screencast.com/t/8w4KuJmoEFI0
Please select the page you want as a homepge from here and follow this guide to set it up: https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/

2)The sidebars can be created from a number of different places: https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/
and then widgets can be added to them from the widgets area of wordpress: http://screencast.com/t/yJTV1L8j02A

Thank you!

Hi,
For the headings inside the post content, you can use this code:
@media(max-width:767px){
.td-post-content h2{
font-size:14px!important;
}
.td-post-content h3{
font-size:14px!important;
}
.td-post-content h4{
font-size:14px!important;
}}
Thanks.

Hello,
Unfortunately this will not be so easy as the sub-footer is divided in 2 sections. 1 for the copyright and the other for the sub-footer menu. The copyright can be centered but only by altering the theme files and removing the container needed for the menu and then using css to position the copyright text.
You first need to remove this part: http://screencast.com/t/pCzg2vn8
Then use this css code in the theme panel for positioning:
.td-sub-footer-copy{
display: table;
margin-left: auto;
margin-right: auto;
float: none!important;
}
Thank you!

Hi,
You can achieve this by editing the post style php files: http://screencast.com/t/2SSGgMBW
Every post style has 2 files corresponding to it. A loop-single and a single_template file. For every post template that you use, you will need to remove this part from the single-template files: http://screencast.com/t/zmgi6aWFY60 and add it in the loop files before the latest articles section: http://screencast.com/t/VE3RVh6B
Thank you!

Hi,
We have not tested this but visual composer offers this solution: https://vc.wpbakery.com/addons/buddypress-shortcodes/
We cannot say for sure if this will work or not though. Maybe some of our users that bought this package can confirm if it works or not.
Thank you!

Hi,
In the excerpts section, you will find the mx12 module length: http://screencast.com/t/5bWwSRgj That is the one affecting the grid style 5.
Thank you!

Hi,
I’m not sure what you mean, you will need to provide more details to your issue. What should we fix? What is the problem? You only say you have a problem but we cannot guess what that is. Please provide examples, a link we can inspect.
Thank you!
