At least you realized, that it is a bug and not something we users have done wrong or something that can be fixed by posting tutorials.

Please fix this as soon as possible.

No, it is a bug in the child theme functionality.

Even when using the standard child theme provided with the theme without any further changes or files copied, the result is not the same as when activating the parent theme.

With the child theme active the default post template is not working.

It is definitely a bug. When using the default child theme provided with the theme, switching between the parent theme and the child theme should not make any difference.

However in the child theme, the default post is not working.

Please fix this bug instead of giving us links to tutorials that don’t solve the problem. And as many people have the same issue, it seems to be a problem.

The problem is also occurring if I take YOUR standard child-theme supplied with the latest Newspaper theme.

If I activate the Newspaper theme, single posts look fine.
If I activate the standard child theme, single posts have no sidebar, etc.

There is definitely still a bug with child theme support in 9.7.4.

If I install the child-theme provided with the theme without any further modification, default single post pages are not working as intended (no sidebar, etc.). And this is not a problem only we have.

I have done it manually and it still doesn’t work. I have also taken the new child theme. Still the sidebar does not show up on single posts and the post format does not consider the settings (no date, no author, etc.)

The last updates of Newspaper are extremely unprofessional. It breaks existing sites, has many bugs and for example the tagDiv Composer plugin has been updated in 9.7.4, but the version number did not change.

I was a big fan of Newspaper theme, but now I am thinking of switching to other themes.

We are also thinking of filing an official complaint with Envato. Selling a theme like this, which cannot be updated in a reasonable way and which has almost no child-theme support is difficult. Also all past positive reviews for the theme are questionable with regard to the current status of the theme.

I have exactly the same problem on a client side. The default post template is completely different than before and none of the settings (whether to show date, author, etc.) is working. And the sidebar is not shown.

Thanks, that’s what I though. Would be a great feature for the future in order to be able to show more posts on desktop (regardless of number of modules per row) and less on mobile.

Love that temporary solution – thought about simply parsing Instagram as HTML myself, when they changed the API 🙂

Great, that worked!

Ok, I think we have found the issue – it seems to have to do with some extra cache that our hoster uses…

I completely support this question. Unfortunately this does not only affect mobile, but also the growing number of high definition screens like Macbooks etc.

The thumbnail images in the block look really blurred on my Macbook and this is a pity, because the overall look and feel of the site is suffering from it.

Is it planned to adapt the blocks to the new responsive image support provided by WordPress since the latest version (i.e. include different image versions via srcset)? Because otherwise I would have to rewrite all blocks, which makes the theme practically not maintainable anymore in case of updates.

Thank you. I have tried that and Visual Composer itself is working properly, but the Newspaper blocks are not. There is only one block style showing (regardless of which block I choose) and custom post types are not working…

So we will have to write our own shortcakes to implement what we need…

Thank you. Is a combination possible, e.g. using a child theme and using the theme-api via a plugin?
