Hi,
The changelog for the theme updates can be seen at the bottom of this page
– https://themeforest.net/item/newsmag-news-magazine-newspaper/9512331
For each update the modifications and new features are mentioned.
There will be some differences but nothing major in terms of layout. It is always recommended to update both WordPress and theme when updates are available.
You could make a full backup to begin with, by a method of your choice. Then update the theme and the theme plugins you use (like Visual composer, social counter etc).
After you update the tagDiv composer plugin (our page builder) will automatically be activated. This may cause problems with specific Visual composer (now called WPBakery page builder) elements, in that case deactivate the tagDiv composer from the plugins panel.
Remember that you can tell us if you have problems after you update, we will help you.
Thanks
Hi,
You could use Big grid flex 2 which is equivalent to Big grid 1. Flex grids have an option to position the category tag inline
– https://www.screencast.com/t/TavUgT6nvwV
Basically it will appear below the title, like you want.
If you want to modify Big grid 1 you could switch the category tag and title code, in the modules used by the grid
Big module – https://www.screencast.com/t/0wH88VsZXK
Small module – https://www.screencast.com/t/rgGxeSSkGO
Thanks
Hi,
Using the latest AMP plugin with an older theme will not work, there is a version check made and the plugin will automatically be deactivated.
The default fonts are defined here – https://www.screencast.com/t/hMT5JWVDt8op
If you want to use other fonts, you will have to load them first. Like this example with a google font
– https://www.screencast.com/t/hhorwqYNQ
– https://www.ampproject.org/docs/fundamentals/add_advanced/fonts
Then add it in the list – https://www.screencast.com/t/N3m3jQbSn
The font should be loaded – https://www.screencast.com/t/NT9g3KeErinE
Thanks
Hi,
I have no idea how to do something like that unfortunately, sorry. If you want the latest posts from four different categories use four different blocks filtered by them and sorted by latest.
Hi,
I tried a few things, can’t seem to achieve it unfortunately. Maybe you can read more topics online and experiment do it. It is possible but it requires time to test. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks
Hi,
A child theme is useful if you plan to make code modifications to the theme files, or add code or CSS to it for example.
Note that CSS can also be added in the theme panel code sections, it will not be lost if the theme is updated.
1. The files that can be modified in a child theme are mentioned in the guide. If you have code to add you can which has to be entered in the functions file, add it in the child theme functions file, instead of the main theme.
If you want to add CSS in the child theme add it in the stylesheet provided with it. Then this CSS will be loaded together with the parent theme CSS.
Don’t make any modification to the code existing in the child theme functions file or stylesheet, no need for that.
2. Should be the same date for the whole website, it’s unusual that there are differences between posts and pages.
You could maybe edit the po file of the language with a po editor. The language files should be in wp-content/languages in WordPress files. Check how the months are translated.
Sorry again for the inconvenience, we will include more options for the cloud library plugin in the future.
You could create templates for each category, and use normal blocks and grids which can be filtered and sorted. The category grids and the loop element don’t have sorting methods for the moment. Or use default category templates until more settings are added.
Hi,
Try it like this for example – https://www.screencast.com/t/e8gLjYPJvN
.td-footer-wrapper .td_module_wrap:hover .entry-title a,
.td-footer-wrapper .widget a:hover {
color: #809EAD!important;
}
Thanks
Hi,
@revmags Include the time in the date format, for example
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ClsFjVKw1a7
– https://www.screencast.com/t/YQ5kBpWx
Only the date format will be displayed, the time format will not.
Thanks
You can keep testing. From my experience with the tool, the results are inconsistent and vary.
The login can be disabled in the theme panel for desktop and mobile (non mobile theme, that has a separate setting)
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/login-how-to-enable-user-registration/
You can make the whole sidebar sticky, as a column, not parts of it. The sidebar should be sticky up to the point where it cannot be displayed next to the main content, on smaller devices like phones. Then it will fall beneath the main content
– https://www.screencast.com/t/KqJmCmuK08F
– https://www.screencast.com/t/aDn41vQG8Ra8
Also as a side note, if you plan to use an Adsense type ad in the sticky sidebar this would be a violation of their terms
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Hm0ZfY1zZ
– https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/1346295?hl=en
I see the text when checking – https://www.screencast.com/t/DZVppkwjFU
– https://www.screencast.com/t/eSNt0lxrH
If you don’t see it try to force refresh the page in the browser (Ctrl+Shift+R). It could be the browser cache.
Hi,
There is a solution like that for template 8, please see this topic
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/featured-image-show-caption/
It should still work. The CSS can be modified according to your preference. The modification can be made in a child theme if available.
As a side note, in the cloud post templates the featured image element has an option to display/hide the caption
– https://www.screencast.com/t/iai7tuK4aa
You can experiment with the tagDiv composer and cloud library post templates here
– https://affiliate.tagdiv.com/#/load/Single
This allows to preview the template and even edit it with the composer.
Thanks
Create a separate menu for the mobile theme, arrange the menu items like this in order to have a dropdown
– https://www.screencast.com/t/KfwjI925z47
– https://www.screencast.com/t/bVQ8qu4Z9MT
– https://www.screencast.com/t/UkjykRPQSKy
Glad it works. In order to translate that text you would have to do it in the plugin files directly
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Okk59HaPvnBp
The AMP plugin doesn’t have translation settings for the moment.
Hi,
You seem to be using the Newsmag theme, use the social counter plugin from it’s package at the time
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-whats-included/
There is a check made when you install a theme plugin, if the plugin does not belong to the theme version you currently have installed it will not work.
So if you try to install the social counter from a newer or latest theme package while using an older theme version, there will be a message.
You should consider to update the theme, make a full backup before so you can revert to it if there are problems. If you follow the guide there should be no problems however
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/
If there are problems let us know and we will try to help you.
Thanks
Hi,
Try it like this, enter the code here this time – https://www.screencast.com/t/qtu5WAwgmW
@media (max-width: 767px) {
#td-header-menu .td-icon-mobile:after {
position:absolute;
content:'menu';
font-size: 18px;
bottom: -15px;
left: 10px;
}
}
That should work. Let me know.
Hi,
Once entered in the theme panel the ads will be displayed at all times. Can’t disable them for specific posts for example.
If you require more advanced control over the ads you could try a plugin for managing the ads. Some theme users with similar desires use the Adrotate plugin. Some information about it here
– http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-manage-ads-in-wordpress-with-adrotate-plugin/
– https://ajdg.solutions/manuals/adrotate-manuals/
I believe this plugin has settings like you mention, based on user feedback also works with the theme. So it would be worth a try.
Thanks
Hi,
Where are you getting the errors? Those are files from the theme folder, there would be no reason to access those URLs.
If they appear in the search console maybe try and remove them
– https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1663419?hl=en
Glad they are helpful. I don’t think this is new, there are other similar topics online you could read further, for even more useful information.
I did check the links and screenshots, but I don’t understand the problem with the theme unfortunately.
Maybe you can explain a bit more and with more details, what you think the theme does wrong in relation to Google search results.
Hi,
You could check the theme requirements guide as a first step
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/

There is no time limit set, you can use it when you want to activate the theme. The theme activation is not related to the support being expired or not.
Hi,
I see the ads just fine, no problem there. Can’t say I know how tracking adsense ads in AMP pages is done, maybe check some topics I found (could be others)
– https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/6090771?hl=en&ref_topic=23416
– https://support.google.com/adsense/answer/7354894
– https://stuarte.co/2017/how-to-track-of-adsense-revenue-from-amp-pages/
Hi,
I don’t quite understand what you want to do. Indeed when the mobile theme is active the sidebar is not displayed. If the mobile plugin is inactive, the sidebar appears below the main content in posts for example.
Some examples and more details about this would be very helpful, maybe it is possible.
Thanks
