well… and actually that didn’t work in something I was doing …

THIS IS CORRECT ONE (sorry):
remove_action('wp_head', 'start_post_rel_link', 10, 0 );
remove_action('wp_head', 'adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head', 10, 0);

One more possible mod for the functions.php file.

If you are *not* using the next / previous story options, or/and also want to ensure that is removed from your header meta for some reason, you can use this in functions.php to remove the next/prev from the header data:

remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head’, 10, 0 );

I personally remove those since they don’t serve a purpose for most things. I think Yoast SEO has this as option, but why rely on a plugin to do something you can do yourself 🙂

I use Newspaper theme for the wider body content area.

I don’t personally have easy answer on this one, but maybe somebody else might.

🙂 That was the more obvious option. Glad it’s working!

I find Chrome works better than IE or Firefox, myself. I also find sometimes I have to “save” the page when it starts to go into a circle of nothing happening. Then next thing I do will work; almost like there is an Ajax buffer which can only handle so much at once, then it just doesn’t do anything.

I’ve found it’s also useful to clear the temp files in my browser, if I haven’t done that in awhile.

You can install one theme per website. To use theme on more than one site you need an additional license per site.

This is covered in the Envato/Theme Forest license information when you bought the theme, fyi.

You can install it more than once for testing/development.

you don’t need to make new topic for subject already answered; but that’s up to you…

here’s the basic answer again,

The site doesn’t have a 3 column layout by default, as far as I know, nor do I recall seeing that in the theme demos, so it looks like you’re asking it do something it’s not designed to do out of the box.

However, as many have already mentioned, *you* can setup the home page using the Visual Composer to create three columns using the column creator, which has already been shown to you as in this example
http://screencast.com/t/ccFZWQ8qpCzi

As in the example site you show, it’s basically one row, with three columns as in my original example of

[ 1/4 ] [ 1/2 ] [ 1/4 ]

widget sidebar + main column w/story loop + widget sidebar

If that makes no sense to you, and you’re unable to use the tools which are fairly easy to use, you might need to hire a developer.

Everyone is welcome to use any or all of that, as fits your needs.
Just don’t post that on the web somewhere as “your invention” is all I’m asking 🙂

See the wordpress codex on how to do this.

You are correct, however, that changing the folder, and changing the style.css file will work. I’ve done it for several sites running the theme.

Won’t work when using child theme, unless you fix that also.

If your wp-config.php file has hard coded link to /themename/ – that would need to be changed (not common).

All your caching on the server needs to be cleared completely likely twice.

It does work 🙂

You don’t need license. It’s a bundled version.

See theme docs:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/

You also need to use the older version of visual composer…. basically

First, switch to default theme
then turn off all plugins

1) delete /wp-content/plugins/js-composer
2) delete theme folder

3) install theme – old
4) install js-composer for that version (bundled)

turn on visual composer -old
activate theme -old

turn on plugins once working.

We are not having the problem on our sites.

My favorite one is the blank ad spots from AdSense when the advertiser is loading graphics from their own site and Google times out grabbing it, so you have a big blank space on your page … and go… huh???

On the first setup with newspaper I used “only text ads” … for that reason, and for speed when I was overly obsessive about that.

I think you just need to upload the child theme from the main installer files (the big all files download from Theme Forest); and then go to the appearance settings and then “activate” the child theme. Make sure the child theme is the SAME VERSION of the main theme, however!

I think you folks need to add some kind of “for your information” message about this in the theme admin panel, and a special “read me” doc in the file downloads about this.

As you know this issue comes up several times a week, going on 14+ months now….. and it pollutes the support forum so much, it’s freaky!

People obviously don’t “get it” as to how this works.

Just a thought 🙂

Note I am having various issues on our server actually getting the 4.1.1 update to even run; and so we’re waiting on 4.1.2 as that issue with updating has never happened before. May not impact you in any way, but if you see “nothing happen” when clicking the update button on your server/install of WP, it’s not just you. Some other folks have reported some issues with the media manager, also (not related to theme).

The fixed width option was removed last year in Newspaper, unfortunately. You would need to go back to the version prior to that change to keep that setting.

Rumor has it some kind of fixed width option, similar to Newsmag, will be in Newspaper 5.0, with their new grid system, but no ETA on that.

Not a theme issue.
You need to check your WordPress install is setup properly.
Often if you think it’s a theme issue, then switch back to default theme for WordPress to debug login.

Note I have been having a LOT of trouble trying to update WP to 4.1.1 and am not recommending that until 4.1.2 personally.

I think some of the main differences are the updated image on/off panel for thumbnails.

Nothing to do with theme. The first byte time is managed by the server setup, connection speed, etc. How fast the server responds to a query and serves anything is entirely managed and optimized on the server side.

So, you need to consider whether you’re using Apache, Nginx, Windows, etc., and research the various ways to enhance/optimize those settings with your hosting provider or a tech consultant.

For example there are many php optimizers that can run, on server caching, faster gigabit connection to the port switch vs 100-base which is typical, etc.

Theme panel is mostly the same; except the Newsmag system has some more updated options which will be in Newspaper 5.0. But I had no trouble moving from one to the other.

I am accepting tips in the form of coffee cake 😉

Glad you got it sorted.

I think there are some plugins that do that, so you might have to look on the plugin repository on wordpress.org

Typically a plugin would set up the functions stuff and then you just put [ shortcode ] onto a page called “authors” or similar.

I think some other folks have done this on the forum, but don’t have the link to that discussion. Might try search for it, but plugin is the easiest way.
