I’m interested in acquiring this product, for a newspaper website. What’s the difference with the other theme (that looks the same) http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609 ??? Thanks!

Hi,

The themes functionality and performance are similar. The main differences are in designs/appearances and the content area width which slightly differs from one theme to another, newspaper’s grid width is 1164px while newsmag’s width is 1021px. Other differences are also appear regarding features, some of the blocks are present on one and missing on the other. We plan to constantly add new features to each theme so the choice depends on your needs.

wp booster error: td_api_base::mark_used_on_page : a component with the ID: td_category_template_2 is not set. /wp_booster/td_api.php

wp booster error: Missing parameter: ‘file’ /wp_booster/td_autoload_classes.php

wp booster error: The category template td_category_template_2 doesn’t exist. Did you disable a tagDiv plugin? /wp_booster/td_api.php

this is what i see when i browser to categories page …

please help

thanks

i try to remove and reinstall the speed booster plugin …

solved … had to set the CATEGORY TEMPLATE in theme panel again after update …

Quick question, when can we see a real improvement with the mobile/tablet view of website, Im not happy with the look of these views at present… more work needs to go into this.

A website should still look just as beautiful in mobile/tablet view as on desktop…

In this themes case, it is just a chopped down mobile theme which looks incredibly dull and boring. There is to big a jump between what can be done on desktop and what can be achieved on smaller devices.

Please sort this soon.

Kind Regards,

Hi,

We’re sorry for the inconvenience however the theme is responsive meaning the same content as on desktop version is also present on mobile version of the theme.

We do plan to add more flexibility to the mobile area and improve the mobile version but we haven’t decided anything yet in this regard so I can’t provide any details on this at the moment.

Sorry for the inconvenience!

I just buy the Newsmag theme, and I just find out that I cannot edit and customize posts like what I saw in your youtube video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuENF-Oeg2Y&index=3&list=PL6CsDkMaejhrfEuAth6JVYLPmFwFzNFwY

I believe the Newsmag Theme should be a better and more update product since it come out last year in November, thats why I buy it instead of the Newspaper Theme.

I don’t know that your New Newsmag Theme is missing such an important basic feature like this.

Can I change to the Newspaper Theme instead? I don’t care about the extra $10, I am willing to pay for the different.

Leokoo, which theme did you buy?

I am so sorry, its my bad not checking out first before I post comment, I didn’t activate the visual composer…......so sorry for the trouble…...

Hi dannychan2009,

There’s something wrong while trying to edit posts, where a divider appears in the middle of the editing box under “visual” mode. It disappears when we shift to “text” or a different theme.

Please assist :)

https://monosnap.com/file/7NweGaATUbf2JVhE9VsLyQLsTzehYK

Hi,

That divider is added by the theme there to provide a better look at how the post will look in the frontend, with or without the sidebar.

If you which to remove it you can do it from here: http://screencast.com/t/PDeBJZ7gPUu9

Thanks for the message! Lucian C.

Hello, since i update the theme, there is a delay of 10 minutes, of publishing a post and this post appears in the homepage.

Hi,

This could happen due to your cache so please make sure you empty all caches and/or purge cdn files after publishing a post and check the cache plugin you’re using for an option to re-cache when publishing new stories.

Concerning W3 Total Cache plugin you under ‘Page Cache’, tick the box called ‘Preload the post cache upon publish events’.

Let us know how it goes and provide your admin login credentials via email so we can have a closer look at this if you can’t figure this out. Send them at contact@tagdiv.com and please also include a link to this conversation.

Hello, How do I to become the posts on mega menu and related posts is random and when I click on “Next” button keeps show the diferents posts?

Hi,

For related articles try this line, like this: http://screencast.com/t/SKnQVIoPNlR6

$wp_query_args['orderby'] = 'rand';

For mega menu block add the sort attribute like this: http://screencast.com/t/jgjknQvhwDwh

$atts['sort'] = 'random_posts';

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from Tagdiv!

Hi, I made this, but when I click on “Next” or “Previous” button on mega menu, it shows some posts repeated. Is it possible to fix that?

Hi,

This sort option brings random posts regardless of the previous ones so there could appear duplication. If you need another approach on this you would need additional customization.

Hi, I have three errors on category view with newsmag:

wp booster error: td_api_base::mark_used_on_page : a component with the ID: td_category_template_2 is not set. /...wp-content/themes/Newsmag/includes/wp_booster/td_api.php

wp booster error: Missing parameter: ‘file’ /.../wp-content/themes/Newsmag/includes/wp_booster/td_autoload_classes.php

wp booster error: The category template td_category_template_2 doesn’t exist. Did you disable a tagDiv plugin? /.../wp-content/themes/Newsmag/includes/wp_booster/td_api.php

How can this be solved? Have sent a message to your email address. Thanks!

Hi,

That happens because the setting you currently use has been changed in the latest update. It’s enough to go to theme panel >categories and set the category template: http://screencast.com/t/JmI2zZx8xoV make sure you clear the cache, purge cdn file if you’re using and test again.

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from Tagdiv!

Hello

Since updating wordpress the featured image does not load in editing or anywhere else. No matter what I’ve tried it won’t work. ALL settings are correct, featured image is enabled in post settings etc. I though maybe updating to newsmag 2.1 would help but it did not…

I cannot find any solution to this issue and it’s very frustrating, please help!

Thanks

It seems to have to do with WP image selection, I was able (no idea how) to get into the old media screen which displays a list of images, you click on the image and it opens all the details and shows the featured image option with a ‘save button’ but I can’t get into that screen again. What’s wrong with the settings here?

Hi,

Please try this without any plugins active, leave just theme’s plugins active, empty all caches and purge cdn filed if you’re using cdn host then test this again.

Please also test by updating a featured image then checked if it behaves in the same way as the rest do. Please let us know how this goes and if this still happens afterwards please give us wp access via email at contact@tagdiv.com so we can take a closer look at this and also provide a link to this conversation.

Hello,

Tell me please, is is possible to modify the author name of an article ? I want to manage multiple author names, with just one account.

Hi,

Yes, you can assign it to another author within wp post editor panel: http://screencast.com/t/0Uu0P0LMR1

Hope this helps! Let us know if you still need assistance on this!

I wonder what the best usage settings WP Super Cache for this theme?

Hi,

Thanks for the message! Lucian C.

Hey there!

How do I do the following

1) Classic
Can I have the footer as full width? Currently, there’s gaps to the sides

2) Changing Stack
Although I’m on the classic stack right now, how do I change to some other stack without downloading demo data? :)

Hi,

1. For the footer there is no theme panel option to make it full width but you can do it using custom css, just add the css code from below int theme panel > custom css section: http://screencast.com/t/iZdC3YmyNL

.td-footer-container {
width: 100%;
}

.td-footer-container .td-pb-row {
width: 1021px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

2. You can install the demo stack without including the content: http://screencast.com/t/WOemKPLYK

Thanks! Lucian C. from TagDiv!

Thanks, but it doesn’t really work well

https://monosnap.com/file/mx3STeQPp9lrACSLbyOv07Aq8dGEPf

Hi,

Please use it like this: http://screencast.com/t/Xut3ekwS6W to apply it to sub-footer container also.

.td-footer-container, .td-sub-footer-container {
width: 100%;
}

.td-footer-container .td-pb-row, .td-sub-footer-container .td-pb-row {
width: 1021px;
margin: 0 auto;
}

Thanks Lucian C.

Hi, is there a way I can remove the “no comments” from the comments section on posts? I’m using the Facebook Comments plugin, but even when standard comments are disabled the text still shows. This can be misleading for visitors.

Thanks.

Hi,

If theme’s ‘nocomments’ still appears it means that the comments haven’t been disabled actually and they still appear but there aren’t any.

I’ve tested this using the latest theme version 2.1 by disabling the comments from theme’s panel: http://screencast.com/t/mhC7s5xBII which works fine.

Please make sure that you try this in the same way and you empty caches afterwards.

Let us know how it goes and provide your site’s ulr so we can inspect it.

Thanks! Lucian C. from TagDiv!

Hi, disabling comments in the theme panel works. Thanks for you help. :)

I bought this theme and downloaded it but the site given cannot be opened so i need the installation guide immediately. This is the site: http://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-documentation/

Hi,

Theme’s documentation is located in the same server that also holds our forums and unfortunately we had some technical issues and because of this the forum hasn’t been functional for a while but it is up now and you can acess theme’s docs now: http://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-documentation/

You can consult our video tutorials playlist on youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hLoUWlRCs0k&index=4&list=PL6CsDkMaejhrfEuAth6JVYLPmFwFzNFwY (this video installation tutorial is made for the newspaper theme but it also applies to then newsmag theme as it can be installed in the same way) you can find there the ftp method also.

This playlist is address to newsmag theme: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TUdVeZ1pbuc&list=PL6CsDkMaejhpWFcFNOIDfdp5nIT0NbUbj – you may find there video tutorials on customizing posts, translation, update and more.

We’re very sorry for inconvenience!

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from TagDiv!

Thank you very much :))

What’s wrong with your help forum? It doesn’t work anymore. :-(

I wanted to know how to modify this code, to work with the gallerys. If I use it, the Gallery is broken maybe because of the tagdiv js or jquery. I use speed booster too.

function defer_parsing_of_js ( $url ) { if ( FALSE === strpos( $url, '.js' ) ) return $url; if ( strpos( $url, 'jquery.js' ) ) return $url; return "$url' defer=\"defer\" '"; } add_filter( 'clean_url', 'defer_parsing_of_js', 11, 1 );

Or maybe even better: how to make it async without loosing functionality?

thank you!

Hi,

Yes, unfortunately we have some technical issues and because of this the forum is not functional for the moment. This problem will be solved as soon as possible.

I’m not sure because the code you’ve pasted here is a bit scrambled: http://screencast.com/t/BITuVptokpRY but you could try it without the speed booster plugin or use the plugin which moves js and css resources to the footer and it’s designed in the same proposes.

Please see our page sped guide (forth section) to find how to use it: http://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/ – this will be available as soon as the forum is start working again.

Sorry for inconvenience! Thanks! Lucian C.

Hi there,

Great work on the theme, I have been using this theme for a client and it has been working great. Over the last couple of days I have noticed posts have not be showing images randomly. All post have an image and sometimes show and sometime do not. Every post has an image display when you view the post, just not in thumbs and the box grid box and the recent posts list.

The website in question is http://www.fft.ie.

Have you come across this problem before?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I have accessed and inspected your site and seen you also have problems with theme’s fonts and all these appear in browser’s console: http://screencast.com/t/MOytAwyhwH

This usually happens when you load theme’s fonts from a cdn and you can try this solution in this regard: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26125030/font-awesome-icons-not-showing-in-chrome-a-maxcdn-related-cross-origin-resourcehttps://www.maxcdn.com/one/tutorial/how-to-use-cdn-with-webfonts/

Please make sure you empty all caches and purge cdn files then check this again. If this problem persist try to update the image thumbs which aren’t working or try to use a plugin like AJAX Thumbnail Rebuild: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ajax-thumbnail-rebuild/ to rebuild all theme’s thumbs.

Let us know how to goes and if nothing works please provide your site’s admin credentials via email at contact@tagdiv.com and include a link to this conversation and specify the issues you have in details.

Thanks Lucian C. from TagDiv!

What can be done about the black bars on the top and bottom of youtube videos? Not sure if this is due to the new youtube player, but it doesn’t look good.

Hi,

You can change the youtube videos aspect ratio here: http://screencast.com/t/YPeBemc2z60http://screencast.com/t/cFquFJY8

Or remove/comment the entire video resize function to remove the theme’s resize for embedded youtube/vimeo or daily motion videos: http://screencast.com/t/WhqvnxCEtkCi

Thanks Lucian C.

Commenting out and the other method of adjusting the aspect ratio seem to have no effect at all.

Hi,

If you use the SpeedBooster plugin the theme loads the minified version of the file, try to disable SpeedBooster and see if the modifications are active.

If they work you have to make the same modification inside the minified file – http://screencast.com/t/mFfm5ePyC3K

The best solution for this would be to modify the code inside the default js file, minify it and replace the code inside the minified js file. For minification use this tool – https://closure-compiler.appspot.com/home

Thank you, Emil G.
