Thank you Calin

Hi Calin, I appreciate that it’s not easy for you (the support team either.) So you can appreciate how much more difficult it is for me who last programmed a computer in 1974.

I think the ideal solution in the longer term is for the developers to enable the user to choose which icons they wish to use as they’ve done with the Header Menu in a theme update.

In the Header Menu today a user can choose from Font Awesome, Typicons, Open Iconic, TagDiv Multi-purpose and Font Newspaper for the icons they wish to use.

Nigel

Sadly, that’s beyond my capabilities. 🙁

Thanks
Nigel

I got around the problem by installing the Font Awesome plugin and changing the icons on the Header Main Menu to use them. Only newspaper.woff?17 is loaded as it’s used ‘Social icons’.

Ideally I like to change the icons in ‘Social icons’ to use the Awesome icons. Can you let me know how I can do that as there doesn’t seem to be an option to change them as there is with the Header Main Menu?

Thanks

Nigel

Thanks Calin

I think I only use them in the menu and I don’t use the Gutenberg Editor. I’ll play around and see what I can do.

Thanks for your help.

Hi Amari. I’m on PHP v7.4.9. No problems.

Thanks rrtoday.

Like orizontsm, I got the messages:

https://www.news.cyprus-property-buyers.com/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/wp-booster/wp-admin/js/tagdiv-theme-plugins-setup.js:234:16: jQuery.fn.load() is deprecated

https://www.news.cyprus-property-buyers.com/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/assets/js/js_files_for_wp_admin.min.js:13:358: jQuery.fn.load() is deprecated

Hopefully the developers will update the code.

I finally got it working.

I tried my browser of choice (Firefox) – despite clearing the cache it failed.
I tried Google Chrome – cleared the cache – it failed.
I tried MS Edge – it worked!!

After it worked with Edge, I tried it with Firefox & Chrome. They also worked.

Wierd?

I’ve restored my database and rolled back to WordPress 5.4.2 – everything is working fine again.

I have the exact same problem. After updating to WP 5.5 this morning, tagDiv Composer keeps loading. See https://www.news.cyprus-property-buyers.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/tagdiv-composer.pdf

Try the plugin Flying Scripts by WP Speed Matters 😉

I have it working now. Just re-installed the update and plugins and everything’s OK.

Hi Calin

https://i.imgur.com/ appears to be no longer working – it’s constantly timing out.

Hi stuartfurniss

I’ve also restored to the previous version and, like you, I’m going to wait until all the bugs have been ironed out before updating.

Hi leytol – same here with “Theme Panel > Ads”

Thanks Vlad

Thanks Vlad – I’ve changed the ‘Leave a Reply’ message as suggested.

Another couple of issues that you could pass to the developers is the ability to change the ‘Comments are closed.’ message and modify its css.

If you check my post Property sales collapse hits all markets and scroll to the end of the comments and inspect element, you’ll see the problem – there’s no css to change.

Hi Calin

I wish to change the wording of ‘LEAVE A REPLY’ to ‘LEAVE A COMMENT’ IN https://i.imgur.com/80BRjU7.png (I can’t change this with tagDiv Composer.)

And in https://imgur.com/uUutA2x I want to change the font size of ‘Comments are closed’ to – font-size: 16px;font-weight: 700; font-family: pt serif;

And I’d like to change the text from ‘Comments are closed’ to ‘Comments are no longer being accepted.

Thanks

I’ve made some further progress:

I’ve included the following in my child theme’s css:

.td-pb-padding-side {font-family: pt serif; font-weight: 700; font-size: 16pt;}

Which should display the ‘Comments are no longer being accepted’ as I want.

However, when I view the post and inspect the element in my web browser, the code:

echo ‘<p class=”td-pb-padding-side”>’ . _etd( ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’, TD_THEME_NAME ) . ‘</p>’;

is shown as:

<div class="comment-pagination"> </div>
COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED
<p class="td-pb-padding-side"></p>

I don’t know how to fix this.

Any thoughts?

Regards

Nigel

After experimenting, I found the comments.php file being used is:

tdb-comments.php in plugins/td-cloud-library/parts/

I’ve copied this to my child theme and edited it. This works insofar as the changed texts are being displayed.

BUT, I cannot see how to change the font-family, size and weight of the ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’ message. The php code for this is:

echo ‘<p class=”td-pb-padding-side”>’ . _etd( ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’, TD_THEME_NAME ) . ‘</p>’;

Also, the message ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’ does not appear after posts that have no comments when comments have been closed (which I’ve set to 10 days in WP Dashboard/Discussion Settings/Other comment settings.)

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Hi Simion

I’m using the Newspaper theme (I posted the question in the wrong forum.)

I don’t have the a comments.php in the folder you suggested. I did a search and found a number of comment.php files – https://imgur.com/a/VJmjw7b

I used the one in td-standard-pack/Newspaper/ and edited it:

line 95: $defaults[‘title_reply’] = __td(‘LEAVE A COMMENT’, TD_THEME_NAME);
line 52: <p class=”td-pb-padding-side”><?php _etd( ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’, TD_THEME_NAME ); ?></p>

It’s made no difference, it’s still showing ‘LEAVE A REPLY’ and ‘Comments are closed’

Regards,

Hi Calin – thanks for getting back to me. There are three things I’d like to achieve as shown in the image at https://imgur.com/uUutA2x

1. Change the text ‘LEAVE A REPLY’ to ‘LEAVE A COMMENT’.

2. Change the text ‘Comments are closed’ TO ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED'(and change the font size to the same as #reply-title – but I can’t find the css?)

3. Include ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’ on posts that have no comments when comments have been closed (which I’ve set to 10 days in WP Dashboard/Discussion Settings/Other comment settings.)

I’ve checked my child theme – all is OK.

I’ve copied comments.php from the Newspaper theme directory to my child theme and edited as follows:

Line 78: $defaults[‘title_reply’] = esc_html__(‘LEAVE A COMMENT’, ‘newspaper’);

Line 35: <p class=”td-pb-padding-side”><?php esc_html_e( ‘COMMENTS ARE NO LONGER BEING ACCEPTED’, ‘newspaper’ ) ?></p>

These changes do not work.

(You will note I use a plugin – Advanced Comment Form – that inserts text into comment form. Disabling the plugin doesn’t solve the problem.)

I hope this helps

Regards

Nigel

Thanks Calin

I misunderstood the tutorial. I’ve replaced the block with a flex block. All is now working fine with the tagDiv Standard Pack plugin deactivated.

Thanks again

Nigel

Thanks Calin.

Are there are plans in place to overcome this shortfall?

Regards

Nigel

I’ve cracked it! The following additional css resolves the problem:

.wpb_video_wrapper video {
width: 324px!important;
height: 187.75px!important;
}

Case closed (But I’ve hit another problem that I’ll report separately.)
