WIth the other post format works like a charm.

Using YOAST SEO plugin.

Any ideas? thanks in advance javier

Hi javier,

I’m not sure, I can see fb scrapper gets the right information: http://screencast.com/t/GqlRl1ct4 It could happen due to Facebook please let us know how have you configured fb share using yoast so we can also test this and have closer look at this.

Hi, How to display ads (google adsense) below smart list? Thank you

Hi,

You can use ad spot’s shortcodes to place ads inside smart lists content if you like or another solution is to display a custom ad like this – http://screencast.com/t/ekXH40AYW it will be repeated on your smartlist for example if you use smartlist that slides – http://screencast.com/t/PCTTXIXDhttp://screencast.com/t/Ngf0q5Xv We also have this on our requests lists and we will consider trying another approach on this in future updates to have more control to the smartlist.

Hope this helps! Thanks for the message!

Thank you

Hi there,

Could you suggest any reason why an embedded twitter stream would work on the sidebar of every page, except for the homepage?

Thanks.

Hi,

Not sure, how are you adding it on the homepage? You could try to use the wp text widget from wp widgets section to add it to a new sidebar then use the widgetised sidebar to place that sidebar to the homepage and test again. example: http://screencast.com/t/pKpPU1RVx9khttp://screencast.com/t/2hFC3X39z

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from tagDiv!

I had tried both a twitter widget plugin, and the straight text (as per your example); and the sidebar is the same that appears on the front page as well as the other pages. Today it seems to be working. Thanks for your time though! :)

Sorry to ask stupid questions again, want to confirm with you that as long as I didn’t change any files (I mean adding or adjusting codeS), only using plugin (even I am adding custom post types with plugin), I don’t need to use the Child Theme, and I can update the theme directly. Am I correct?

Hi,

No problem! Your’re right, the child theme is optional and recommended for those case in which you need to alter theme’s code but not necessary. You can find more detailed informations regarding it on wp codex: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

Hello,

I already set one inline ad but do you know how to add another one? Something that can be set after several paragraph?

Thanks, Amir

Hi,

That can’t be done using theme’s settings unfortunately so you need to customize theme’s content function to add another content inline ad, here: http://screencast.com/t/TNBOHzJyh A solution for this would be to use custom ad 1 spot for example and its shortcode to place it manually where you want it to appear in posts’s content, like this: http://screencast.com/t/iXMW8Ao0nOhttp://screencast.com/t/8EqMfho1UNp

To find each ad spot shoprtcode add it using VC page builder and the ad box element switch to classic mode, like this: http://screencast.com/t/lukYp9dxk91Ahttp://screencast.com/t/5GRNYs6jVTrp

Hope this helps! Thanks for the message!

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from tagDiv!

Hi, I tried so long and using different methods, I still cannot make the theme to show custom post types. (Newsmag Theme) I am using the Custom Post Types UI plugin and the Advanced Custom Fields Plugin. Can you please show me how.

Hi,

We haven’t tested the Custom Post Types UI plugin so I’m not aware if it’s functionality however the theme has custom post types and custom taxonomies support integrated so it should work, to experiment with our Custom Post Type support and find our more details please follow this tutorils: http://forum.tagdiv.com/custom-post-type-support/ Hope this helps!

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from tagDiv!

Thanks and I will look into it right away.

Also provide more details about the issues you have with the ”More stories” and if you just need to use other text there you can use theme’s translation panel: http://screencast.com/t/Pj2vBzlcgO

Thanks, I think I can wait for the update. I’ll be in touch otherwise. Thanks for support!

Hello , im ineteresting in your theme , here is a presale question : i want to use your theme in a multisite installation : domain1.mysite.com…domain2.mysite.com…etc : 1- do i need one license for this kind of installation ? 2 – how woocomerce and other plugins will works ? it will be one shop for all domains ? plugins will work with all the domains or only with the main theme ? Thanks

Hi,

1. Our themes sales are managed by Envato and according to their policies each theme/license can be used for one product (site): http://themeforest.net/licenses/standard but you can use it on multiple test sites. If you want to use it on multiple sites/domains you’d have to buy a license for each project.

Based on your project’s description you can use the same licence, if you need more details on this you could also ask Envato as they determined the rules in this regard: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

2. You need to setup the shop/woocommerce for each theme/wp install or use custom links to send your visitors from one site to the main shop from a different wp install (site).

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need additional informations on this.

Thanks for the message! Lucian C. from tagDiv!

Love the theme thus far, is there a way to intergrate a newsletter?

Hi,

Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have any implementation for a newsletter however you can try to use a plugin to gain that possibility. You can try MailChimp for WordPress plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/mailchimp-for-wp/ or another simialr.

Hope this helps!

Hi -

Quick question: Can I utilize the blocks feature for different kinds of content beyond just posts. For example, can the the blocks be set up to filter different categories of Woocommerce products?

Hi,

Theme’s blocks elements have been designed for wp ‘post’ post types but you can also set them to use another post type like pages or products using the filter section post type settings from block’s settings: http://screencast.com/t/7OFoo70a Please note that you would probably need additional customization for other posts types as the theme’s blocks haven’t been tested with other posts types.

Thanks for your message! Lucian C. from TagDiv!

Why dose the last update say August 18 but there is no version details or what the update comes with?

Hi,

Theme’s 2.1.1 update had just one fix for deprecated widget constructor warning in wordpress 4.3 version which appears when wp debug is enabled: http://screencast.com/t/vCLtqAjaG0ob and just one file has been modified: http://screencast.com/t/SFZkYRl7xT and style file with new version. You can find this mentioned in theme’s update log within the version now available on themeforest.

If you don’t want to update you can just change the indicated file with this one: http://cdn.tagdiv.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/td_widget_builder.zip

Hi Guys – Pre Purchase question here. I want to move over a current website to a new theme and I have been trying out a few – X, 7, enfold etc. First question, what makes Newspaper 6 superior?

Q2 – I have a lot of Custom Post Types currently in the site. Considering this theme focuses mainly on displaying post categories, I’m concerned that it won’t have the functionality out of the box to handle and easily style Custom Post types. Would you be able to give your thoughts on this?

So, can the width of Newsmag be adjusted / increased_

Hi,

It can be adjusted but not using theme’s settings, you’d need customizations to theme’s design/grid which is not an easy task and you would need to turn to a developer to make this changes for you as we cannot offer customization services at the moment. Sorry!

Thanks for your message! Lucian C. from TagDiv!

Understood. Thanks for letting me know.

Sales question – I am looking to build a magazine style site with a pay wall and membership levels to access to contact so basically, FREE, MEMBER and PREMIUM MEMBER so I am planning to use WOO COMMERCE Memberships and Subscriptions.

Is your theme compatible with them?

Hi,

The theme comes with basic woocommerce compatibility – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newsmag/shop/ Unfortunately we didn’t do any tests with the Membership and Subscriptions modules, so i cannot say if they work our theme, sorry.

Thank you, Emil G.

In your preview of Newsmag Theme (http://demo.tagdiv.com/), on the left side you provide the ability to switch between different themes: Fashion, Tech, Video, etc. I have two questions in regards to that:

[1.] i really like the video version but things is can we add only pics and text pages too? moreover the page options that is available on default theme demo available on the video theme demo & is the video theme available in light version?

[2.] Is it possible to somehow set up the site using Newsmag for different sections with different themes, as if they were all separate websites yet interconnected? What I mean by that is, for example: We have a MainNewsSite.com (theme style #1), then we have MainNewsSite.com/SportsNews with Sports-only content (style #2), then we have MainNewsSite.com/FashionNews with Fashion-only content (style #3) and so on.

Is the above possible to accomplish using NewsMag?

[3.] If the answer to the above is yes, is it possible to have MainNewsSite.com set up with blocks where bits of news/content are being pulled from those separate, smaller sites? For example, on the homepage of MainNewsSite.com there would be a block with “Sports News” (content pulled from MainNewsSite.com/SportsNews) and another block with “Fashion News” and so forth.

TL;DR – Mostly, what I mean is, would it be possible to create a category “Fashion News” on the main site (e.g. mainsite.com/fashion), then assign it a homepage with a different homepage theme style (with a grid and everything), set up different blocks on there as if this category’s homepage was its own main site, and display all the fashion news only in there (as if on a completely different site). Then do the same for multiple other categories. At the same time, this content would not be shown on the mainsite.com, only in separate blocks. For example, on the mainsite.com’s homepage there’d be one block for Fashion, one block for Sports, etc.

Was that clear enough of an explanation?

Thanks for your help!

Hi,

1. I’m not really sure what you mean by adding just “only pics and text pages” so if possible please provide more details on that and note that the theme works best with using posts in blocks and modules but pages can also be set there and use blocks which don’t display an featured image like block 9 or 10: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-9/http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-10/

2. You could use the same approach as we have on our demo, I’ve explained then rest of your request here: http://themeforest.net/author_dashboard?utf8=%E2%9C%93&filter=all&term=MainNewsSite.com#comment_10848506

Hello, tagDiv team,

Bit of an odd inquiry about your theme’s capabilities.

In your preview of Newsmag Theme (http://demo.tagdiv.com/), on the left side you provide the ability to switch between different themes: Fashion, Tech, Video, etc. I have two questions in regards to that:

Hi,

1. Yes, you can do it the same way we have on our demo and to enable the right side stack navigation menu you just need to set your theme to ‘demo’ like this: http://screencast.com/t/rmdus0uUc then change the link here: http://screencast.com/t/jyp0albp

2. Pulling content from other site’s on blocks on the main site it can’t be done using theme’s settings, only if you could find a plugin that could help on this.

According to Envato’s policies each theme can be used for one product (site): http://themeforest.net/licenses/standard but you can use it on multiple test sites. If you want to use it on multiple sites/domains you’d have to buy a license for each project.

Based on your project’s description you can use the same licence, if you need more details on this you could also ask Envato as they determined this rules in this regard: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Hope this helps! Let me know if you need additional informations on this.
