That is strange because I did not manually change the fonts in the theme panel. It changed when the theme was updated.

Any ideas why the top sidebar ad is not visible after the update?

I also noticed the top side-bar ad stopped working after the update. The ad still works on my live site but not the staging site. The ad is loading and returning an ad according to the Google Publisher Tool bar, its just not visible on the page.

Here is the staging site: https://goo.gl/bF46xi

Hi Chris,

The code in that thread, where is it inputted? Also, would it cause a delay in the css loading. I haven’t used the speed booster but of this delay. The jerky load of the page is annoying and not a good look I like out there.

Ah, I didn’t realize it was just for adsense code. Makes sense. Thanks for the clear explanation.

Hi Andrei,

There must be an issue with the theme panel then.
Looking at the Google Debug tool and Inspect Element you can still see the ad being called.

Please see screenshots.

Can you take a look and let me know what you find?

Thanks

I figured it out. I need to do this change to all the loop-single files. The ad is now visible on all post templates.

Thanks

Hi Andrei,

1 – A. Thanks for the CSS tip. I made the modifications and the ad is no longer over the buttons
B. Re: The ad widget under the share buttons. The widget code on that page was inserted into the theme panel “Article Bottom Ad” I moved the ad spot to below the share buttons using the instructions giving to me in this post. https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pagination-buttons/

4. To display the pagination above the article button add you need to remove the the ad from post content: http://screencast.com/t/PWgzx852 then place the ad after the pagination function in posts’s template file, like this: http://screencast.com/t/pgCbyqSPF You can use the do_shortcode(‘ ‘) function and insert the ad shortcode from VC: http://screencast.com/t/W4SFKPnoShn – http://screencast.com/t/lqaJxdVdMee in every post template files coresponding for the post templetes used.

The article bottom ad is visible on non paginated post and on this paginated post: http://bit.ly/1PB9HQf but no on this one http://bit.ly/1nObbMO. All plugins are disabled.

Chris,

To add —

I know you don’t agree – But I think this is where a child theme would help. Instead of reapplying customizations to several files, one would only need to make changes to the files that were updated.

In this current update none of my modified files were updated so a child theme would save me from having to redo everything. I guess I could just FTP a back up of the 10 or so files that weren’t updated.

Is this advisable? I want to make sure things don’t get out of wack.

Chris,

Thanks for your feedback.

With all the updates how does your team or you handle constantly having to reapply customization, especially if there are major ones.

When will this feature come out for NewsMag?

Hi Andrei,

#3 – Looks like it changes the pagination buttons all through out the site. For example: On the related articles and the ticker buttons on the homepage. Is there a way to only change the buttons in the paginated article.

What I would like to do is make the buttons bigger and change its color.

Thanks for the explanation. Looks like the issue is with the “sidebar ad” ad space.

I used custom ad # 3 and it works perfectly. Thanks for the header ad css that worked as well.

Hi Andrei,

I posted DFP code into the theme panel ad boxes and the padding for the header and sidebar ads are off.

Can you take a look and see why the ads are not padded correctly?

http://goo.gl/WOX80k

Thats a drag. Even if you dont use a child theme you need to update those files or else lose your customizations.

I don’t recall any other theme where I would have to re do all the work. Wish there was an easier way to reapply the custom edits

Ha nevermind just noticed the issue. The new code is td_block_ad_box.

I missed the block.

Thanks this worked perfectly.

Question: What is the css to edit the menu and sidebar so I don’t see the jump and where do I place it?

Thanks

Hi Andrei,

The edited code doesn’t seem to work either. Below is what I inserted into single.php

?>
<div class="td-container">
<div class="td-container-border">
<div class="td-pb-row">
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_column width="1/1"][td_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_2"][/vc_column]');?>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<?php

So if I installed Newsmag through the WordPress dashboard the patch has been applied?

I have every plugin disabled, even speed booster and Visual Composer.

I want to try one more thing. How do I disable retina for the Newsmag theme?

I’ve turned off all the plugins and only have the retina plugin and VC as well as speed booster. Disabling all plugin even composer and speed booster it still produces the same issues.

Looking at the console I am seeing the following errors. What do these mean?

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read property ‘replace’ of undefined(anonymous function) @ tagdiv_theme.min.js:166m.extend.each @ jquery.min.js:2m.fn.m.each @ jquery.min.js:2td_retina @ tagdiv_theme.min.js:166(anonymous function) @ tagdiv_theme.min.js:156m.Callbacks.j @ jquery.min.js:2m.Callbacks.k.fireWith @ jquery.min.js:2m.extend.ready @ jquery.min.js:2J @ jquery.min.js:2

I did see that in the support forum. It wasn’t until I came across that entry that the plugin did not work at all.

I deactivated everything except the visual composer and I still had the same issues.

Something is definitely in conflict with the plugin. I also deactivated the tagDiv Speed Booster plugin and I believe the minification error went away as I didn’t see the site broken for a split second before returning to normal.

Hi,
This worked!

How do I match an image I insert into a post to be the same width as the feature. Like this on this template http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/details-thats-the-only-thing-that-matters/

Thanks

Thanks this worked.

Ok. Fixed it.

What had happened was when I asked how to prevent the logo from loading in the middle first then loads to the left I was told to edit the css file

Also you have to change the css code in style.css file as the default style is loading first and because of the cascading property of the css style appears the delay you have noticed. So try to remove this code – http://screencast.com/t/77pQNXhaN then clear cache and see if it works.
Please note that this change will affect also other headers so if you change the header style revert this change.

I didn’t want to change the original file so I copied the style.css over to the theme folder and made the change. What would be the correct way of changing this without changing the original file?

Hi Lucian,

I deactivated all the plugins and still see the large logo on the retina display.

I inspected element and changed the max-height to 90px and it seems to load correctly just like the newsmag demo. Would this be an acceptable solution?

.td-header-style-7 .td-header-sp-logo img {
position: relative;
max-height: 90px,
}

Regarding the icons, I shared your reply with my hosting support team for their help in changing the htaccess and they came back with the below.

I have added in your website .htaccess the directive that was suggested in the article, however as I checked the characters remain unchanged, but via Chrome I am able to see another result:

http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/274460/9f0b7b47f1038a7de5a65af8208729b0

which makes me think that the issue is connected to the website configuration.

Please check the details and If there is anything else that we can assist you with , don’t hesitate to contact us back at any time!

Is there anything else we can try?

Adding that code forces the logo in the footer to appear smaller as well.

Something must not be working correctly. Your suggested logo size is 272×90, for Retina displays the theme suggest to upload double the size. So why is it looking large on retina displays and not the 272×90 size but using the scaled up version?

Also, once I changed the css a few things went missing. Take a look here http://www.screencast.com/t/aA9XBZrF

Thanks for the help
