Hi,

Indeed, making any modification directly in the theme files will not be a long term solution. If possible a child theme should be used for that. There is a child theme provided in the theme package, this is a guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/
Not all theme files can be customized with it, the files that can be are mentioned in the guide. If it is required to modify a theme file that cannot be modified with a child theme, make the modification and back-up the respective file. After making an update replace the new file with the one you backed-up.
Be sure to check the theme changelog after an update
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
There will be a list of modified files. So for example if you modify a file (child theme or not) this modification might have to be made again, taking into consideration the modifications made to the original file after the update.
Custom CSS code (and other code) can also be entered in the theme panel custom code sections. Code entered in these sections will not be lost after a theme update, it is saved in the database of the website.
There is also a Live CSS feature that you can use for various CSS customization
– https://www.screencast.com/t/jX35QFGtPuO
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/

In terms of backup you could use a server provide option if available, using plugins etc
– https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
There are also many online guides and tutorials
– http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-create-a-complete-wordpress-backup-for-free-with-backwpup/

Let us know if you have more questions, we will try our best to help you.

Thanks

Hi,

That is full big grid 4, it will require a different code to change the article title color for it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/khyGoQPDpy7

.td-blog-fitness .td_block_big_grid_fl_4.td-grid-style-4 .td_module_mx21 .td-meta-info-container .td-module-title a{
color:#dc7b77;
}

There is no specific setting to change the color of titles in the grids. For blocks there are settings.

Thanks

Hi,

I have tried to remove the admin bar with a code such as this one for example
– http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-disable-wordpress-admin-bar-for-all-users-except-administrators/
This removes the admin bar
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Yhdw7WCO3
But for me it does not create sticky menu issues
– https://www.screencast.com/t/2GsCFxJD
Maybe I am not using the same settings as you are, from what I can see there is no issue with the sticky menu after removing the admin bar.

Thanks

Hi,

The AMP plugin will display a different style of the post pages, you can see how they will look by adding /amp to the end of the post page
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-amp-plugin-tutorial/
This is a demo AMP post page
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_crypto/td-post-ethereum-millionaires-attract-attention-from-regulators/amp/
At the moment there is no menu in AMP pages, this could be introduced at a later time. If you are having problems with AMP pages, we could take a look. The plugin was improved and the latest version should not create issues.
If you want to use it, simply enable it and that would be all. Please provide a link to a post that has issues and we will inspect it.

Thanks

Hi,

Maybe these topics would be useful, there might be some more online
– https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7917725/update-all-wordpress-posts
– https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/157253/i-need-to-bulk-update-all-wordpress-posts-on-a-scheduled-time
– https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/152541/wordpress-update-all-existing-posts-at-once

Hi,

The theme has a Twitter sharing option for the posts pages, please check the theme panel post settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/zImisUKE
– https://www.screencast.com/t/2gi8j8Cf5
These will appear as an option to share the post.

If you want you can embed twitter content in the posts or pages (in pages you can use a text element for embedding)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Q21rWcCNzZtp
– https://www.screencast.com/t/RFgFfuK99UWA
Or if you require more advanced Twitter capabilities you could maybe search for a plugin that has them.

Thanks

Hi,

Please first make sure the multi-purpose plugin is installed and active
– https://www.screencast.com/t/XGMUaWQcC7
That issue would happen if you install a demo which uses multi-purpose elements, and the required plugin is not active. That demo uses multi-purpose header style 3, and that error will appear if the plugin is not active
– https://www.screencast.com/t/IykBllSkwLyN

Hi,

In pages built with the composer you must enter a specific predefined class for the row, in the extra class field
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ghTiY9vFV
Then the sidebar in that row will be sticky. This is a guide in the matter
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/

Thanks

Hi,

Maybe you could try the solution from this topic
– https://webgilde.com/en/shortcode-not-working-category-description/
Or search for more solutions online. I don’t believe shortcodes will work in the category or tag descriptions by default in the Yoast provided description field, if that is what you are using.

Thanks

Hi,

You could try the solutions from these topics, they worked for users which had similar issues with the composer
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/gray-page-tagdiv/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/javascript-error-td-composer-wont-load/
Or it could be plugins that cause the problem. You could check that as well. Deactivate them all as a quick test and see if this has any effect. Let us know.

Thanks

Hi,

Nice to hear that, glad you could solve the problem. Thank you as well for posting the solution in your case. This could be helpful for other users.

I couldn’t say, it is the same for me i my tests. I too have tested with a category and translated category with WPML. I have added posts on both categories, but they are not displayed once I filtered the block in my case. Maybe this is not possible to not intended to work from the beginning.
I will however make a note of this and add in on our list. it will be looked over by our team at some point. I cannot promise anything in the matter.

Try entering it in the theme panel custom CSS code section, that would be an alternative to the live CSS window.
However the live CSS should work properly as well. I have tried it on my end and there was no problem with it. You could try deactivating all plugins except theme plugins, maybe it is a plugin conflict. Then check if the code is saved as intended. Let us know.

Hi,

The update will contain the same solution, the same modifications will be made in the theme Instagram file and counter plugin files.

@Talent10 Make the modification for the Instagram widget or counter plugin and then clear all caches, website caches, browser caches, CDN if used. The widget will work

Hi,

There is now an option to choose if you want to display reviews on modules
– https://www.screencast.com/t/QvzKizMHcD2F
This option is general however, it will apply to all modules. Maybe this will be added in the composer so you can choose for each block individually. If reviews are enabled the author name and date will not appear on any modules. Maybe a condition would work, you could try it.

Hi,

The article title fonts and font properties can be changed in the theme panel, for all the modules. Check these sections
– https://www.screencast.com/t/yBTdLCNcDP
Identify the module used and change the fonts as you wish
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
Those would be the general settings. If you want to customize juts one block, use the composer font settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/TWGLzs0dSPq

Thanks

Hi,

1. The text font properties of most modules can be modified by editing the block
– https://www.screencast.com/t/MC6Jn2ueMW

2/3 That padding and margin could be removed like this, also adds a different border
– https://www.screencast.com/t/2gU3uc3lExW
You can modify the values as you wish

.td_block_17 .td_module_4,
.td_block_17 .td_module_8{
padding-bottom: 15px!important;
margin-bottom: 8px!important;
border-bottom: 2px solid red!important;
}

4. The date can be disabled in the theme panel
– https://www.screencast.com/t/6OyMnIrhwk

Hi,

That can be done. You will have to access the string translation here
– https://www.screencast.com/t/3zq8hc1W1
Search for the td_011 referrence
– https://www.screencast.com/t/s4XAEmUt
Inside that search for the tds_logo_upload term and select it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/0YEf3pKvC
Then click on apply on the bottom of the page
– https://www.screencast.com/t/9WAqjMwmYrvd
That field will appear in the suggested screen, where you can set a different logo
– https://www.screencast.com/t/9vps6Mep2L
That logo will appear in translated pages/posts etc.

Thanks

@acdmin There are two sliders provided by the theme at the moment, the slider and the big grid slider, these do not require plugins (they are included in the composer)
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/ios-slider/
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-slide/
Only the Revolution slider has to be installed, the plugin is included in the theme package. This slider is very complex. We provide some demo sliders in the theme package
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-revolution-sliders-on-demos/
Those are sliders that can be seen in the theme live demos.

Hi,

The module files are located here
– https://www.screencast.com/t/rwnCAKtqenWd
Block 9 uses module 8 so that is the one you will have to modify.

Thanks

Hi,

There is a default margin and padding set on the module of that block, You could reduce those with a code like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/biVMbxcDoUW

.td_block_9 .td_module_8 {
padding-bottom: 15px;
margin-bottom: 8px;
}

You can change the values in the code if needed, set them how you want. The browser inspector is a useful tool you can use to create simple CSS codes
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/

Thanks

I have tried to access your website but it seems to be offline at the moment
– https://www.screencast.com/t/iVxirMaKF7C

Hi,

At the moment that is not possible, only through a plugin or theme modification would that be achievable. There are some solution in these topics
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/place-ad-in-main-category-grid/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-add-or-created-ad-block-in-category-page/
In a future update there will be major changes to how the category pages are created and more options will be added. But for the moment there are no specific theme ad spots for category pages. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Thanks

Hi,

You could try plugins for captcha on the comments section, the theme comments are based on the default commenting system and functionality of WordPress. So only through a plugin or other implementation you could achieve that.

Thanks

You could try another solution, remove the code I provided and enter the previous one, the one that you used. Now the normal posts will be as before. Since the problem is for video posts enter this code along the initial code you used

.td-black .post.format-video {
background-color: rgba(0,0,0,0.6);
}

It will affect only video posts.
