Christopher is a long time WordPress user. Anything else you need to know is private ;-) I *do not* work for TagDiv, but I've been using their themes since late 2013.

This works on our site:
/* iframes and objects max-width */
iframe, object {
max-width: 100%;
}

Also note that if what you load in a responsive iframe is not ALSO responsive, then I don’t think it will work.

Whew! And your Securi free account was supposed to catch that, too!

Glad you got it sorted.

(WHEW!!)

try putting period in front of .iframe

there are tutorials online the past 10 years on how to do this … not a new thing.

Weird. In Newsmag 3x you can simply put *any* link to RSS feed, such as feedburner, or any other feed on your website into the

Newsmag panel > social networks > rss

and that is what shows in the top/bottom bar for social elements in theme.

I guess the social sharing ‘plugin’ only pulls the default WP RSS feed with no option to pull that from the theme panel, which would be nice.

NOTE: if not using the “counters” you can easily just add ‘follow us’ buttons to a text box in your sidebar which is what I did.

e.g.,

<span class="td-social-icon-wrap">

<i class="td-icon-font td-icon-twitter"></i> FOLLOW US ON TWITTER

</span>

I think you can email them and ask for it 🙂
Send your purchase code and website URL, and I think they can send you 6.7.2

well, if you want it to load async, you need the async=true…

of course, you’re still dependent on FB waiting for it to load.

Maybe somebody else using the FB comments can pitch in. We stopped using it due to the speed issue, which was worse than Disqus. We’re pondering actually going back to built in comments in WP… (gasp!) 🙂

You can add any custom CSS either to theme panel custom code section, or at bottom of your style.css …

It’s a quick way to get your favicon ‘working’ then mess with where to put it 😉

simchris
tagDiv Member

Also note you can generally not add favicon to panel and simply add the properly composed favicon graphic and optional images for Apple iOS versions to your public root

yoursite.uuu/favicon.ico
yoursite.uuu/favicon.png

and *all* web browsers of past decade will look for one there if not explicitly spelled out in the meta data.

You can likely add async to the script loading, if not there already.

This should be covered in the FB comments docs, as not part of theme.

I do it in Photoshop myself, as I can also ‘save as’ for web for best compression (e.g., for web jpg, try quality factor 32; or 52 for images with high ‘red’ content; some images you can go down to 22; use a blur factor of .02)

simchris

Ah, I don’t think captions work on some ‘featured image’ blocks. Sorry.

TagDiv folk might need to give you better solution.

Well, if you install a ‘clean copy’ of the theme, and then it gets re-infected, then there is some malicious code on your site, or the overall site has been hacked.

Did you also remove any child theme if using one?

The version on ThemeForest is not infected.

Did you change *all* your passwords for WP, FTP, and your hosting panel?

Did you try going to an older dbase backup not infected?

We’re not having this issue on any of our sites, so not sure what to tell you beyond that.

I’m assuming you’ve done all the tutorials:

Did you do a full clean install of WP, deleting old version entirely?
Delete entirely all plugins and themes.
Check your htaccess for malicious entries.
Check folders, like the uploads folder for rogue php files?

Again: did you do a full proper install of Newspaper 8.1; meaning DELETE old theme folder entirely, upload NEW fresh copy — not over-writing which leaves old code there.

Scan site with Securi?

Follow online tutorials to check dbase for the malware infection?

Did you delete items in the ad boxes in theme and resave per the common tutorials online?

I usually add it to image in Photoshop.

or, you should be able to use a caption in the media uploader.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Yep. Each time you upload new theme it overwrites edited file. Most smarty pants now make a custom plugin for all function edits. Really easy.

Version of theme legally downloadable from your themeforest account has no malware.

simchris
tagDiv Member

Whatever. I dont work here. Read the how to install instructions and do it properly and it works.

You do not upload the tf folder to server. Period.
Good luck!

Are you trying to install on wordpress.com or a self hosted wordpress.org install of WP on a hosting account?

Basically, you need to unzip the single newspaper.zip file, which is either downloadable by itself, or inside the Newspaper-tf ‘all files’ folder. Don’t try to upload the tf folder, won’t ever work. Ever.

Unzip the Newspaper.zip folder, on your PC/Mac, inside a project folder where you plan to keep backups, work copies, modifications; notes to self, etc.

then FTP up the Newspaper folder *only* to your website

siteroot/wp-content/themes/[goes here]

Or, if your hosting account (not on wordpress.com) has enough resources and correct permissions, you can upload the single newspaper.zip file (*not* the tf folder!!!!) via the WordPress install theme panel.

works for me.
Of course you would need to re-generate your old thumbs to compress them.

Trick is making sure the images you upload in first place are optimized as best as you can, using Photoshop, GIMP, or similar.

simchris

The Envato plugin doesn’t work very well.
You should use the FTP method as you can also do backup of working site at same time in case you have problems 🙂

Google “how to view page source” in your web browser …

look for the meta tags in your head area.

THAT is what is being seen by social media.

*you* have to setup your twitter tags and open graph tags using your SEO plugin. See the help/support for your plugin to learn how to use it.

You can enable reads/counts on posts first; *then* it will work on the ‘meta’ of blocks/modules if you enable/disable THAT on the modules/meta settings. If reads are ‘off’ on posts, they will never work on modules.
