I have seen Yoast plugin has added this to my sitemap from the google search console /tdb_templates-sitemap.xml. What is this for?

Okay, thank you. The last updated date is very important for me because I have many posts that I keep updating and it would help me very much. And thanks for the rest of the assurance.

Could you also correct the share buttons coz they share the URL with the single template name (e.g. Single Post Template 24 https://cloud.tagdiv.com/tdb_templates/single-post-template-24/ via @tagDiv Cloud) rather than post url?

Also, I just thought template 17 was the full width only but figured out the others can be made full width by stretching the rows. Is that in the tutorial?

I decided to explore the other templates further. One more question, I use “last updated date” in my posts. Is it possible to introduce that for the single templates?

ctoweett

Seems like a strange thing then coz I tested other few templates and it is only 17 returning the error. Guess I will have to deactivate the plugin for now and stick with the default templates. My focus has been on speed and overall user experience (hence minimal look), and the full template which was my next desire is deteriorating speed. Let me try on a testing site and see if the issue occurs. Thanks anyway.

But I still would prefer if the tagdiv team also introduced the full-width template as part of the 13 default theme post templates (loop single and single template). I have done several customizations to the theme with regard to speed (example for a single post with 25 comments http://prntscr.com/js1nz8) and have managed to keep all my posts and pages below 1mb. I am not sure if that is a priority for now, but is it possible? (I am only using the cloud plugin for the full width feature only).

Thanks for answering. I use a minification plugin (fast velocity minify) with Newspaper for speed and I have seen that using the single template 17 causes Gzip compression issues while I have enabled it by default (Gtmetrix says enable gzip compression: Compressing /wp-content/uploads/fvm/out/header-dd714063-1528369985.min.css could save 907.9KiB (87% reduction), see http://prntscr.com/js1eew), which does not happen with the inbuilt theme single templates, or even other parts of the site, except single page with template 17 enabled. I tried Autoptimize and the same issue happened. I tested single template 15 and the same issue did not occur. Could you be able to help me figure out what the issue is? I found out this is what is making the page to grow three times. (The average size of my single posts with current speed optimizations is around 600kb-750kb. I have reverted to template 8 for now, but still, I want to make template 17 work).

Another question, why not also adopt the full-width template as part of the default theme templates? I tried single template 17 and it made my single posts three times as big with the same cache settings.

I was able to see the rest of the content by decreasing the size of the window (control+-), including the create template button. It seems the popup is zooming in at 100%. Can this be a bug?

ctoweett

So, this is how single templates are showing in chrome on my end http://prntscr.com/jroje1 and even scrolling does not show the rest of the information. It seems the popup is cutting some information below what is appearing on the screen (laptop, 1366×768, see http://prntscr.com/jrop9y). Also to mention, when I use td composer directly to load the templates, all the single ones disappear from the list. This is how ut looks on firefox http://prntscr.com/jroz51.

You are welcome.

You can by identifying the page ID (https://www.competethemes.com/blog/find-page-id/). Then you can style it like so .page-id-xxx. You have to put the code before the css class of the element you want to style. E.g let’s say the page ID is 100 and the menu css class is .td-header-menu. You can style it like so:
.page-id-100 .td-header-menu {
put your css here
}

That is not malware. The images are placeholders for the td multipurpose plugin which has now been merged with td composer. The images cannot be deleted and that’s why they recur after you delete. The Tagdiv team says they will provide an option to disable the images in the next update.

You have to enable post views from Theme Panel>Post settings>post and custom posts type>SHOW POST VIEWS(and click save). And also Theme Panel>Block Settings>7 days post sorting (and save).

Your questions were answered here https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-many-time-we-can-use-these-theme/. Please don’t repeat the same question twice because priority is given to older questions first by the support staff. (I don’t work here).

Unfortunately, the theme does not support RTL.

Find the 404.php file inside the Newspaper theme and remove this code (preferably in a child theme not to lose the changes with the theme update).

<h4 class="block-title"><span><?php echo __td('OUR LATEST POSTS', TD_THEME_NAME)?></span></h4> <?php

                $args = array(
                    'post_type'=> 'post',
                    'showposts' => 6
                );
                query_posts($args);

                $td_loop_block_module = td_util::get_option('tds_404_page_layout');
                //$td_loop_block_module

                locate_template('loop.php', true);
                //get_template_part('category', 'slider');
                wp_reset_query();

                ?>

1. Normally, the Envato policy allows using a theme only on one install. You can, however, use the theme on a sub-domain if you plan on creating a testing site, but if we are talking about totally different sites with different content, then only one theme per install is legally allowed. In your case, you should buy three other licenses if the sites are different projects.
2. Here is the guide to update Newspaper Theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/.
3. The theme comes with lifetime updates (per regular installation).
(NB: I don’t work here).

1. If you don’t think you need to make any changes to the main theme core files, then you do not need a child theme. Here are the files that can be changed via a child theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/.
2. The custom CSS is saved in your database. So, you will not lose the custom changes on theme update. But to be safe, always backup your site before updating the theme.
3. The Custom CSS panel is the recommended way by the theme developers to add custom CSS. If you want to add the CSS to the main theme, you would have to make changes to the main style.css file by looking at the main instances where each code appears and make the changes there, but you would need to backup the file (and redeploy the changes with each new theme update) or the changes will be overwritten with each update. The custom CSS panel works for both the main theme and the child theme.
4. Again, see this tutorial on how to use the child theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/.
5. TD composer is a page builder specifically built and configured to be used with the Newspaper theme. It will continue to receive updates in future and the theme developers recommend it over visual composer. However, the visual composer will still continue to be bundled together with the theme. It is not recommended to use both page builders at the same time. So, it is your choice really on what you want to use between the two (I personally use td composer).
6. The tagDiv Multi-Purpose adds additional elements to the TD composer. It is more beneficial for building landing pages. Read more about it here https://tagdiv.com/newspaper-8-5-update-what-s-new/.
