Aha! Good to know. Google’s Lighthouse is flagging that code as slow loading (780ms-1000ms). So, I was wondering if it would affect anything if I host it locally? (and maybe keep it updated with a cron job)?)

You can using the filter tab when you open the block using tagdiv composer. Just find the category code (click the All Categories dropdown and look for News category code) and add it using a minus sign (e.g. -4) where it says Multiple Categories Filter http://prntscr.com/lse2eg

FTP is the recommended way to update the theme https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/. It is for your own good you know.

Just go to the Newspaper>Plugins section in WP dashboard and update the plugin from there. Or login to your theme forest account and go to the downloads section. Download “all files and documentation” and extract the file and the plugin should be inside the plugins folder.

Make sure you have updated the theme to the latest version 9.2. Then go to Newspaper>Plugins section in your WP dashboard and update the mobile plugin (and other td plugins) from there.

What does that code do? I saw it broke my site when I tried to remove it.

Good to know the team figured it out. Also, the last theme update reset them too for me. Hope that the fix will address that too. Thanks a lot!

As indicated earlier, I already meet all those requirements you are asking. So, those don’t apply to me. Could you also kindly answer the first question?

Yes, that fix provided by @Simon worked for me too. What was causing the templates to reset @simon?

Also, TD Composer has been very slow to respond in the last few days. It takes quite a while to load (it keeps on spinning close to a minute before the page shows up and also lags when trying to edit the elements). I checked my Cpanel and things like CPU Usage, Inodes etc. when this happens and they are good and so is the system settings. Maybe you can advise on what might be causing this?

Disable from here http://prntscr.com/lptv1n.

Also disable the lazy loading in the theme under template settings in theme panel.

you are welcome.

you can get someone from studio.envato.com if you need a developer.

You are welcome.

You are welcome.

Good to hear it worked for you.

It is not broken but designed to show like that.

Disable this option in your theme panel http://prntscr.com/lpfhlu.

You should have been clearer coz you said arrow, not its background. The code by Edward should work unless you did not implement it correctly. Try this one instead
.td-scroll-up{
background-color:red !important;
}
Change the colour to what you want.

You are welcome.

@wilhard learning how to implement CSS is a must if you run a website. There is no way to avoid it. The better implementation is the solution @Calin provided. Otherwise, use -CSS in the block option he provided, e.g -10, etc until you are satisfied with the space height.

It is fixed. You can do your own modifications of the newspaper>mobile folder at your own risk.

The demo content can be deleted by either uninstalling the demo or going to pages, posts, menus and categories section and deleting demo related info from there. So it is false to say it cannot be edited when installing with content.

(Should I uninstall the demo and then install it again “with content” so that I can tweak the layout by seeing real-time changes and then add my content?

Also, if in future I do add some pages, will they be realigned as per the demo theme?) Answer is yes to both questions.

Check the theme files under newspaper>includes>demos>city_news>pages and open homepage.txt . Copy the code inside in a new page and edit with td composer as you like.
