CSS customizations are saved in the database if you saved them in the custom CSS section of the theme panel (assuming you don’t use a child theme). But if you made any custom modifications to theme files, they will be lost when you delete the theme before updating, unless you back them up and upload them afresh to replace the new ones (assuming nothing was modified in those files). But if you use a child theme, you can delete and upload the parent theme without any problems.
You should have installed the demo with content and edit the homepage with td composer if you wanted it to look like the demo. Without demo content, you have to figure out which grids and blocks the demo is using and recreate them using td composer. (I don’t work here)
You should deactivate and delete the td composer (and td multipurpose if you use it) and install the one that comes with theme version 8.7 in Newspaper>plugins. (I don’t work here).
See this topic https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/post_views_count/
Go to Newspaper>Theme Panel>Categories and under each category, check for “CATEGORY TAG COLOR ON POST PAGE” and change the colours from there.
Send an email to contact@tagdiv.com to make that request and paste the link to this question in your email so they can recognize you. (I don’t work here).
Check if you have copied and pasted the code correctly, and remember to clear your website and browser cache.
See these guides 1. https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-theme/ 2. https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ 3. https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Option 3 is the best and more recommended option for updating the theme to ensure everything works smoothly with no errors. It is recommended to back up your site so that if anything goes wrong, you can roll back to the previous theme. As for your question, see this http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/how-to-update-a-wordpress-theme-without-losing-customization/ (I don’t work here).
I figured it out. I went through my custom code one by one and found out it was this code .single .td_block_wrap that I had set to ‘hidden’ in mobile devices but I’m not sure what element of the theme I was trying to hide.
All those sliders in the td composer labelled “big grid full” allow you to achieve just that without css.
Just copy the code inside the page in the editor and then create a new page and paste it there (Also save the code somewhere else as a backup in case you want to roll back changes). Open the page with td composer and edit (or tweak) the page as you want. Once done, just copy the edited code and paste back to the previous page that you have set as your homepage. Preview it and if it is the way you want, then just save the page. Though it is simple to just edit the page as it is coz no one will see it until you update the changes. (That’s what I do, and I don’t work here btw).
Install and activate the td multipurpose plugin that came with the theme because the header used by crypto news demo depends on it.
Yes, it is possible. In the filter section of the block under “Multiple categories filter” just put the IDs of the categories you want to include in that block separated by a comma (e.g. 3, 5, 6). To get the category IDs see this tutorial https://bobwp.com/find-post-page-category-id-wordpress/

You are welcome.
@Simion, I noticed ea-php was the one causing problems and had to switch to a host I kept as backup that uses alt-php. Now everything is fine. Thank you.
You’re welcome.
Simion, what is that big white space below between the article title when a link is shared on WhatsApp and the link and is there a way to reduce it?

@Zilhan thank you for the compliment. I use the TD Composer coz of its dedicated elements built specifically for the theme (like the new flex box and td multipurpose plugin elements). The advice given here is that you should not use td composer and visual composer at the same time because it will cause plugin conflicts. So, the best option is to choose one and deactivate the other. So, the choice is yours, even though the recommended plugin since version 8.5 o4 8.6 has been TD composer because it is being optimized for the theme specifically.
No, I did not remove the code and it is still there. See this http://prntscr.com/ihrvkh (I only added some code to show my custom previous and next post and a telegram subscription box).
I don’t know why the same option is not appearing when I activate the mobile theme. I had to deactivate it and go back to the responsive theme. I am using the crypto news demo. See this screenshot http://prntscr.com/ihbcm3 (I selected related posts to show by category in Theme Panel)
With WhatsApp, you have to wait a few seconds before posting the link to enable it to pick up the open graph tags.
Use this code
.td_block_related_posts .td-related-right {
display:none;
}
