Hi

I ended up doing the same; downgraded to 11.4.1 then redid the update. The error for the wp_booster doesn’t occur now. However, make sure you have a backup because the footer disappeared on the second upgrade.

Hi Anamaria,

I didn’t send an email. Instead, the site was reverted back to 11.4.1.

I’ll look at your suggestion and see what happens. As always, thank you!

Update: I get it. Yes. I can replace that area with the block you suggested as long as I change it to 5 posts, 5 in a row.

Sorry. It’s been an hour of the site being a mess and so it was returned to 11.4.1 release.

I hope you are able to figure out what is wrong in the wp_booster legacy plugin. I see others had issues a few months back on updates. I’m going to try the update without WP Cache enabled.

Wahooo !

Thank you Calin!

Yes. In row, general, the setting was ‘hide on pagination.’ Unchecked it for each one and the templates are working correctly.

I see the documents state:

“You have to use a category that doesn’t have sub-categories.”

But I have categories with multiple depths. This means – my post becomes a feature request.

No. There’s no caching at the point of development. Settings are simply not saving. I’ve sent a video to support because activation isn’t saved either.

Sorry. The theme version is a mess and I hope the video gives enough to show the saving issue and developers can fix things.

I love the theme but I’ve spent days upon days cleaning things up.

TagDiv composer isn’t PHP 8 ready either. I’ll send the errors to support.

Tested PHP 7.4, 8.x and 8.1. Saving just doesn’t work.

What? NO !!

The problem with the Newspaper 11.4 is NOT solved. It’s a horrible upgrade. I’ve wasted hours and hours.

No settings save.
Excerpt settings are wrong.
Sidebars are wiped out and set to inactive and cannot be recovered because no settings save.
Theme was deactivated and cannot be activated (will not save!)
admin-ajax.php is NOT blocked.

It’s just a nightmare of an upgrade.

Drats. This is NOT what I was trying to say. LOL. I can’t edit the OP.

The top three stories are pulling the excerpt BUT the setting for the element is not changing the excerpt length. Instead it shortens the stories of the posts without excerpts and leaves the excerpt length alone.

Hi

Thank you for the link to another discussion. I found that there is a problem with installing the Standard Pack then Deactivating it. It deactivated ALL of my sidebars.

Your developers probably did not intend for that behavior to happen.

TagDiv Composer just isn’t saving options in the Thumb section.

I’m going to call it a bug and not use the prebuilt theme.

As a suggestion, tagdiv composer should recognize a prebuilt theme and set all of the proper image options. I shouldn’t have to manually go in and try to save.

After all, when AMP is installed then all the proper image sizes are enabled in that same block settings area and they are enabled by default.

FWIW, in the options table, td_011_settings has the options for the thumbnail sizes.

Just a suggestion. But I’m done for now. It’s too frustrating. TagDiv Composer isn’t ready for usage. Worse, I’m stuck now because I upgraded to 11.4 and feel stupid not to have verified such an important task.

OK. I’ve ranted enough. Have a good day.

If you don’t mind, I’m going to reask this question, “Is there a way to enable the thumbnail size options in the database?”

Hi,

Thank you for replying, Anamaria. As stated, I’ve tried on several different development environments and the thumb settings do not save. Other parts of the panel save.

Cloudflare is not used. I disabled all plugins, except the tagdiv composer.

It’s not on the live server or a test server.

There are no error messages in the server logs.

PHP 7.1.33
PHP 7.4
WordPress 5.8.2
Server Software: nginx/1.21.4
Server Protocol: HTTP/2.0

Is there a way to enable the thumbnails in the database and regenerate the thumbnails afterwards?

I’ve found the solution. The CSS for the row had a bottom border.

I decided today to write a few lines to return a total of post views.

I hope this helps anyone else wanting a total of post views.

Do you have a shortcode in the post? Did you have something like Locations plugin active at one time?

Does this help?

I had to go through and restart the upgrade due to a get_user_locale error. The upgrade database notice finally showed the second time. Have you tried a reinstall? Were you presented the first time with the db upgrade notice?

Sure but I’m interested in the best way to remove text and link to theme support because I still have admin that use the toolbar. 🙂

I placed the following in the custom CSS area.

#wp-admin-bar-our_support_item {
display:none;
}

Is there a better way?

Have you taken a look at their tutorials on installing/uninstalling demos?

https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/

The prefix vc is for visual composer. It is a plugin included with the theme. You’ll want to activate the plugin in the plugins area of the WordPress admin.

wp-admin >> Plugins >> Installed Plugins

Find the visual composer and activate.

Here are some instructions on how to use it.

Thank you.

Sorry. I meant – a live update feature like Facebook. When someone posts a new WordPress post then a notice goes across the top of the page that a new post is available. This would also hold true for comments in the WordPress post.

I didn’t mean updating the theme 😉

Turns out this works until the visitor reaches a page or a post. Modified the code in the logo-text.php file.

<?php

$td_tagline_text = td_util::get_option('tds_tagline_text');

$current_category_id = get_query_var('cat');
$current_category_obj = get_category($current_category_id);

$td_logo_text = strtoupper($current_category_obj->cat_name);

if ( empty($td_logo_text) ) {

	if ( is_home() || is_front_page() ) {

		$td_logo_text = "TUX REPORTS";

	} elseif ( is_page() )  {

		global $post;
		if ( 0 == $post->post_parent ) {
			$td_logo_text = strtoupper( get_the_title() );
		} else {
			$parents = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
			$td_logo_text = strtoupper( apply_filters( "the_title", get_the_title( end ( $parents ) ) ) );
		}

	} else {

		$categories = get_the_category();

		if (!empty($categories)) {
			$td_logo_text = strtoupper($categories[0]->name);
		} else {
			$td_logo_text = "TUX REPORTS";
		}
	}

}  else {

	$td_logo_text = strtoupper($current_category_obj->cat_name);
}

?>
<span class="td-logo-text-container">
	<a>">
		<h1 class="td-logo">
			<span class="td-logo-text"><?php echo $td_logo_text; ?></span>
		</h1>

		<span class="td-tagline-text"><?php echo $td_tagline_text; ?></span>
	</a>
</span>

This is operating on http://www.tuxreports.com and appears to be working well.
