Many thanks Bogdan.

1. I added it to the header.php then. No probs.
2. Ahhhh, a debate! No wonder I was getting mixed messages. Will leave as is then. Thanks for clarifying.
3. Yes. Definitely more on individual pages. Ta.

Cheers Catalin,

I’ve sent details to the contact@tagdiv.com
I’ve tried it with and without the Maintenance mode plugin.

The only plugins I am running are:
Font Awesome 4 Menus
Maintenance Mode
tagDiv Speed Booster
WP Super Cache
Yoast SEO
Contact Form 7

Let me know if you find anything.

Many thanks
John

I wasn’t criticising your theme. I know it has been tested on multiple browsers. I was hoping for some suggestions or advice from the theme experts (or from others who use the theme). As I explained in the email, I’ve tried removing all modifications I made, clearing caches, resetting to defaults, etc. etc. etc. Not using a CDN.

I know the error “is on my side”. I’m just asking for help! As people do when they come to forums 🙂 I am a web developer, but I have come to a dead end.

Given what you have seen in the video, can you make any suggestions, other than to rebuild everything again from scratch to see if it fixes the problem? I could rebuild it all and still have the same problem.

Given the way IE 11 works with your theme, are there any suggestions you can think of (specifically for IE browsers) that may resolve this type of issue?

Thanks!
John

Thanks Bogdan! Using the alternative method fixed both issues. Cheers. John.

Ahhhhh. No wonder I couldn’t find anything. Ok. Can you add this to the suggestions list for me for future development? Would be good to have an easy way to alter this layout for individuaL categories. Thanks. John

Just a thought. Have you tried adding “!important;” to the end of your CSS changes?
For example, color:#000 !important;

Sometimes I’ve found you have to add this to make an alteration work in the panel’s custom CSS area, especially if you are using the speed booster. You may have already tried this, but just in case…

Cheers,
John

I’ve had the same thing. Appears to be a bug. The quick fix is simply go back into the theme panel and change the font again. Especially the font on the main menus (desktop and mobile). Fonts can change randomly when you change other fonts. It’s been mentioned before, but it’s very random and very hard to document for support purposes…

Hi Phonetic,
You can always add your own CSS to target specific devices. For example, you can add your own custom CSS between the bracketed areas below. Then just copy it into the code section in the theme panel (you don’t have to just use the widths set out in the “Advanced code” section).

Cheers,
John

Worked it out. For those who find this thread and want to change the feature image size.
First add the new size to the td_config first (code above) then find your post template style. I was using the post style template 1, which is located here (not sure why they’re called loop single!):

/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/loop-single-1.php

On line 51, change:

echo $td_mod_single->get_image('medium');

TO

echo $td_mod_single->get_image('td_326x200');

Change the TD reference to whatever size you have already added to the tp_config file.
Regenerate your thumbnails and it should be there.

Cheers,
John

Hi Catalin,
Not sure if you read my full post?! I have already created the new feature image size (just like I did for other modules) in td_config. In the case of modules, you need to add a second piece of code inside the template itself to make the new size work. I’m asking where the “Post style 1 template php file” is? In this file, just like the modules, there should be an “echo image” reference in the PHP that I need to change to td_326x200 (from the old size).

I will of course regenerate thumbs when I have made this adjustment first…

Cheers,
John

Excellent Bogdan,
I didn’t realise you had incorporated Schema already. You just tipped the balance from another theme I was considering to yours 🙂 It’s Newspaper all the way now. I’ll keep setting up my new site until you guys release the new version and will launch then. Looking forward to the SEO changes.
Cheers,
John

I have exactly the same issue with fonts. It’s weird. If I change another font somewhere else in the themes panel, the main menu font is reset. Since my set up is bound to be completely different, I think this must be a bug – although an obscure and rare one…

+ 1 . Please list all the defaults rather than just saying “Default” with every font selection. I have to go into Firefox and inspect the page to see what the default it. Not just the actual font, but also if it’s bold, italic, text decoration, etc…

Excellent. Thank you. I notice I can add blocks, etc. to sidebars, which is just what I need.

I am launching a new site soon but am worried about the SEO implications (after reading this thread). Do you guys have a time line for the next release with the SEO improvements? I absolutely love this theme, but don’t want to launch the site until them improvements are implemented. Is it a long way off?

Also, I’ve been reading a lot about Schema(schema.org) and its growing usage in Search engines. It’s likely to be Google’s next focus after speed and mobile. Do you have any plans to incorporate schema into the Newspaper template? I ran your demo site and my own test site using your theme on http://seositecheckup.com/ and my old site (with an older, much less impressive theme) still ranked much higher in SEO than both.

PS – Not trying to be negative. This theme completely blows any other news related theme out of the water! Absolutely love it on multiple levels 🙂
