Hi,

That could be available in future theme updates, but for the moment the category pages cannot be edited and insert Blocks and other elements. All the settings for the category pages will have to be made through the theme panel
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
On a category page there will be a Top grid of your choosing, and a loop containing posts from that category, also a chosen sidebar. The module that displays the posts can be changed by category as well.
Please check the category page layouts and module examples in the Features menu, in the live theme demo
– https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/

Thanks

Hi,

You can use the Yoast SEO plugin for that. Edit the homepage and change the title as you like in the Yoast SEO page settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/xfjSx6kqW2GQ
– https://www.screencast.com/t/15mxOFYcD0
– https://kb.yoast.com/kb/yoast-wordpress-seo-titles-metas-template-variables/
I could not say when such a feature as you mention will be available. There are many plans for future updates. We will just have to wait and see.

Thanks

Hi,

Block 18 module requires a bigger featured image size in order to create proper thumbnails
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
As it can be seen that block uses the same module in all layouts. Module MX8 requires this thumbnail size
– https://www.screencast.com/t/3etDVp0UX7C
That featured image is not big enough for that module
– https://www.screencast.com/t/DiYOg9HeL4
The block 18 next to that one displays a proper thumbnail.

Thanks

Hi,

Best way to check main theme version would be in the theme panel, or in the WordPress theme settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/rvVXfreXg5
The child theme as well, in the theme settings
– https://www.screencast.com/t/s3aHoHUnua
The child theme version provided in the theme package is 7.7c, that is not important. The child theme will work properly. What needs to be taken into consideration is the custom code you use inside the child theme. Each main theme update might add, remove or modify theme files, so the child theme may need modifications. That can only be verified through testing.

Thanks

Hi,

That color could be changed with some CSS, however you will have to set a background maybe for the social counter elements in order to see the information. This is how style 9 would look with the code
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nfBE8UTqaF
And style 3
– https://www.screencast.com/t/4kcl0c0Qmsb
The code must be entered in Theme panel->Custom CSS section

.td_social_info {
color: #fff;
}

If you would like the “Like/Follow” to be white text as well in style 3, the code is like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/rEimbRRcenW9

.td-social-box,
.td-social-style3 .td_social_type a {
color: #fff;
}

Thanks

Hi,

Those look like shortcodes of some kind, in that page structure. If you would like the same layout like the magazine demo, you simply have to install it
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-demos/
Make sure the tagDiv composer plugin is active, although it should be automatically activated when the theme is installed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Then install the demo you want. Let us know if there are further issue installing the demo.
When it comes to page speed, this is a widely debated subject. There are many topics, tutorials and guides here on the forum. Some of them here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/

Hi,

That is where then default link to the author page is defined in the theme, for the top menu. This is the link and where you can make your customization to it
– https://www.screencast.com/t/VqPUbUBOiU

Thanks

Hi,

This code will remove the author name and date for that grid only
– https://www.screencast.com/t/mhL1CXit
Enter it in Theme panel->Custom CSS section

.td_block_big_grid_4 .td-post-author-name,
.td_block_big_grid_4 .td-post-date {
display: none;
}

Thanks

Hi,

There seems to be an inline width property for the image, in the post you provided
– https://www.screencast.com/t/QpwR4BbHjS
That fixed width is overriding any other styles and conditions. You could inspect the post content and see if you can find that value there
– https://www.screencast.com/t/5Cm8QyUEIy7S
Or maybe it is added by a plugin, cannot say for sure. It could be removed by setting the normal width, something like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/UlpFXqx2J0

.td-post-content .caption-width-container {
width: 100% !important;
}

Thanks

Hi,

If you have the time for it, posting the steps you took might help other users with similar demands. It would be helpful.

Hi,

I assume you already tried the suggestion Bogdan mentioned in the previous reply. Deactivate all plugins except theme plugins, and check if the issue is solved. Additionally deactivate and delete the Visual composer plugin, and install it again from the theme package
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Also check the theme system status and make modifications to these server and WordPress parameters according to this guide, if necessary
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
You could ask your hosting provider to make them for you if needed, as they might have a recommended method in this matter.
Please let us know if there still is a problem after trying these suggestions.

Thanks

Hi,

That is exactly how the theme cropping system works. The theme uses a center-top cropping
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-image/
This is considered to be the best system to be used, in general terms. There is no perfect solution, it also depends on the image format used
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/
Each module uses a different thumbnail size, so results can be affected by this as well. It is all about finding the right module for the right images.

Thanks

Hi,

That seems to be the modified placeholder image
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ITRWxXpF9
It should now be displayed when the post has no featured image set, instead of the default them no-thumb. Please correct me if I misunderstand.

Thanks

Hi,

That is the ajax filter on a block and the tabs Visual composer element, they are not related and do not supposed to display the same. You could inspect the tabs and the filter and see what CSS each one uses, maybe style the tabs differently. Something like this example maybe
– https://www.screencast.com/t/eDyd9mVO
This the code used in the example if it is useful to you

.vc_tta-title-text {
font-family: 'Roboto', sans-serif;
font-size: 13px;
color: #777;
line-height: 1;
}
.vc_tta-color-grey.vc_tta-style-modern .vc_tta-tab>a {
border: none!important;
background: transparent!important;
}
.vc_tta-tab.vc_active span {
color: #4db2ec!important;
}

Thanks

Hi,

The website is in construction, I cannot inspect it at the moment. It could be caching, try clearing any installed cache. The social counter is supposed to display the counts. If you do not need it, simply remove it from the page.
Or maybe use a code like this in Theme panel->Custom CSS to remove the counts, the result would be like this
– https://www.screencast.com/t/Y7Wpm6Zk

.td_social_info {
display: none;
}

Thanks

Hi,

Please check the theme system status and make modifications to the server and WordPress parameters mentioned in this guide, if necesarry
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
You could ask your hosting provider to make them for you, as they might have a recommended method in this regard. Insufficient PHP memory can be the cause for this issue.
After making the changes check if the theme panel works properly. Let us know if there still are problems.

Thanks

Hi,

Maybe contact the hosting provider and explain the situation to them. Tell them that you identified the conditions from the htaccess file to be responsible for Adsense ad scripts not loading successfully. They should be able to help you or at least provide some helpful indications.

Thanks

Hi,

There is no beginning shortcode needed. The smart list will begin when the first heading chosen for the smart list is found in the post content
– https://www.screencast.com/t/BvpGgP3SrPh
The Smart list end shortcode will mark the end of the list, so you can enter more content in the post if needed. More information about the smart lists here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-lists/

Thanks

Hi,

There is a post number limit that you can set for each block in the General tab, by editing the page with the composer
– https://www.screencast.com/t/2wNBmiSc2yZH
The pagination options are in the Extra tab, for each block as well
– https://www.screencast.com/t/1cVKG1qEu

Thanks

Hi,

The News ticker element has the same options as blocks do. You can filter and sort posts how you want
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nFrqD0Xu0
Please check this block settings tutorial for more information

Hi,

When the mobile theme plugin is active, content for each page has to be entered in the Mobile editor (bottom of each page edit screen)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/rkhljSy89tVL
Enter the form shortcode in the editor as shown in the screenshot. The form should be displayed in the mobile page.
The mobile theme requires content to be entered for each page, the content from desktop will not be displayed when the plugin is active. This plugin is optional, you can choose not to activate it, as the main theme is fully responsive. Then the same content from desktop will be displayed on all devices. More information here
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/

Thanks

Hi,

You could use the text elements available in the composer. Insert the image in the text elements and it will be responsive for every device, including mobile
– https://www.screencast.com/t/cnNcp9VrGzx
Or try experimenting with the single image or image box elements and their settings.
The Revolution slider is a very complex plugin with an enormous amount of settings and options. There are demo sliders provided in the theme package, that you could install
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-install-revolution-slider-v5/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/import-revolution-sliders-on-demos/
Here you can find all the official documentation from the plugin authors
– https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-revolution-documentation/

Thanks

Hi,

The theme has options to enable or disable the breadcrumbs and some customization options
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/breadcrumbs/
You could disable the breadcrumbs from the theme panel, if they are not needed on the website

Hi,

That information can be customized with the Yoast SEO plugin, you can use the plugin to customize the sharing information

Hi,

The tagDiv composer is automatically installed when the theme is updated or installed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
If by some reason it did not install for you, there are multiple ways of installing a plugin in WordPress
– http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/step-by-step-guide-to-install-a-wordpress-plugin-for-beginners/
There is no exact cause for that issue from what I can find, try manually uploading the plugin by FTP in your uploads folder (unzip it first). Let us know if you still have problems.

Thanks
