i just purchases this theme and when i unzip the file it contains many folders For eg: demo, demo_sliders etc and a zip file named newspaper.zip , is this the zip file to be uploaded to the website ? then how can i update the theme ? there is a folder named patch_6.6.2_6.6.3 kindly help

Hi,

Please check this guide about installing the theme – http://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/ You have to extract the files from the zip file that you download from themeforest and there(in folder Newspaper-tf) you can find the theme, plugins.. – http://screencast.com/t/DLJiK1xnkoM

The patch contains the files modified from the previous version and it can be used to update the theme but only if you use the previous version. For example you have 6.6.2 theme version, you can use the patch to update to the 6.6.3 version. This helps users that have custom modifications to the code.

Please check this guide to update the theme(there are 3 methods presented in the guide A,B,C) – http://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ always do a full backup of your current installation.

We recommend to follow our documentation – http://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/ and if you have issues related to the theme please open a new topic on our forum – http://forum.tagdiv.com/ and our support team will gladly help you.

Thanks! Alin V.

Hi, I am running a woocommerce shop on your theme and everything is quite fine but I can’t manage it with the right picture size. My product pictures (catalogue thumbs) are too big. I am already using some resize/optimize plugins but that didn’t changed much. Are there any possibilites to get the images much smaller? Maybe with a custom css? Thanks Fabian

Please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link so we can take a closer look. Also paste a link to this ticket.

Hello. What files do I need to take the Themes folder. Thank you

Hi,

Do you refer to the theme update/install? The theme package that you download from themeforest is a zip file which contains the theme(another zip file), plugins, child-theme, please check our documentation – http://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/ So if you want to install/update the theme you will have to extract the ZIP folder called Newspaper-tf. After extracting files you will open the folder called Newspaper-tf where you will find the theme – http://screencast.com/t/sHzCk3Kw7

We have update and installation guides on our documentation where is explained how to update install – http://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

If this is not what you mean please provide more details about this.

Hi Like youtube video post sharing, Is there the same sharing format for Dailymotion? On sharing on facebook, it should show post with image not video (directly play on facebook). When someone click on image on facebook, user redirect to the website.

Hi,

I’m not sure what you mean. Sharing an article with dailymotion video you should get the same result like using a youtube video. The thumb will appear on facebook page and when you click on it, you will be redirected to the article where the video is. Please provide more details what the issue is, eventually send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com if you have an issue with your site and we will take a look. Also paste a link to this conversation.

Hi,

I am using Block (module) 14 on my homepage which you can see here: http://www.familyhomeproject.com/

I would like the featured images to display 100% full height as well as full width. At the moment it is cropping a lot of my images.

Thanks, Merry Xmas.

Hi,

This is how the theme was designed to crop all the featured images and the thumbs created to be used on modules/blocks. The theme uses the add_image_size() function and you can read more about this on our documentation – http://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/ also you enable thumbs only for modules and blocks that you use so it will not be created so many thumbnails.

If you want to change this you need to alter the code(to change the size or add a new size) here – http://screencast.com/t/iDnbJxJexThe specific thumb is used on module – http://screencast.com/t/PZIHMMphV If you make any changes please regenerate your thumbnails – http://forum.tagdiv.com/using-the-theme-with-existing-content/

Thanks! Alin V.

Hey,

Thanks for your reply, I managed to find the code to amend but when I changed the image height from 385 to something larger like 500 the image became distorted.

Could you let me know how I can get it to show the full height of the image without distorting it.

Thanks, Merry Xmas

Hi,

Like I said above all featured images are cropped so the thumbs will be used on blocks/modules but depends also the aspect ratio of your images as some modules have a 16:9 aspect ratio some have one closer to 4:3 so not all images will look good on all modules, it is specified in the documentation. Also by changing the thumb size you will need custom modifications as the module 14 has a css which was created especially for a thumb with 385px height thumb – http://screencast.com/t/JJrxWCq20O8 I suggest to get someone to help you with this as it is not so easy and we are not available for custom services, sorry!

Thanks! Alin V.

Hi,

This is a great theme. Does this theme support Vietnamese?

Thank you

Hi,

Yes, the theme is is capable of loading Vietnamese – http://screencast.com/t/fYQXgpDGGw0S Theme’s translation loads translations for your site’s frontend but theme’s panel or other settings are available just in English and they are not translated unfortunately.

Also you can translate each element like you wish – http://forum.tagdiv.com/customize-a-translation/ Here is an example I’ve provided in other ticket:

Let say you want to translate Related Articles and More from author – http://screencast.com/t/OGyPpWmb7by you will get this result in frontend – http://screencast.com/t/sABvQSmlgL

Good evening. I bought the theme and I wonder if I can activate via Mamp (local) and then I can use the same activation server when you put online.

And I wonder where I can deminuir the slide height

Hi,

Yes, you can use the same code when you activate the theme on the server without any issues.

Regarding the slider height, you can use custom css to decrease it for each device(media queries) for example to apply this only on desktop – http://screencast.com/t/JIgnK51f

@media(min-width:1141px){
.iosSlider-col-2 .td_module_slide, .td_block_slide .iosSlider-col-2 {
height: 300px !important;
}
}

Please open a new topic on our forum for similar issues – http://forum.tagdiv.com/

Hello, Please add custom background per page. We run a newspaper site and would like each page to have a background representing the theme of that page. thank you. J

Hi,

I will add your request to our list and it will be considered for future. You can try to add a background image for each page using custom css please check this topic as reference – http://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/different-background-on-pages/

Thanks! Alin V.

Hi,

I love your Themes! since months we use Newsmag on one of our sites. Now we dowloaded Newspaper for another site: https://ezigarette-magazin.de/ There is now one problem: The picture-size is not matching with the big grid. On our other site there is no problem with the size. Also google page speed says that the pictures are not optimized or compressed. but they are compressed. How do i fix that?

i found a solution: 1. Install and activate the Plugin “thumbnail upscale”. 2. Install and activate Plugin “force regenerate”. 3. Run force regenerate.

Hi,

Glad that you managed to solve it! If your images are smaller than the module thumb you need to use the Upscale plugin, also you can read more about thumbs in our documentation – http://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/

The optimized errors come from your ads and depends by the images delivered by google as you can also check – http://screencast.com/t/FyNpK0tmMhttp://screencast.com/t/GBV3bsUW and unfortunately we cannot provide a solution for this.

Thanks! Alin V.

Hi, I am working on a site which has newspaper 4 installed. not sure when the last time the theme was updated. Will a fresh licence for newspaper 6 be required to update newspaper 4? Also, does the theme actually require a child theme when updating? Thanks

Hi,

You don’t have to pay for the version 6 of the theme if you already bought the theme. Just download the new version of the theme from your themeforest account and update it following this guide – http://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ Please note that the old customizations(files modifications or custom css) will not work anymore and you will have to re-add them. Also the child theme must be updated, you can find it in /code folder – http://forum.tagdiv.com/whats-included/

If you need further assistance regarding this please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide envato/themeforest account and the purchase code and we will gladly help you with other informations. Also paste a link to this conversation.

Thanks! Alin V.

Hi is it possible to set the grid wider? Any chance that you guys will released an update for this?

Hi,

Newspaper theme was designed with an fixed grid layout, responsive as it is fluid and style for desktop/tables/mobile screens and unfortunately we don’t plan to make changes to the width so I’m afraid that a full width option will not be available.

Thanks! Alin V.

Can I use this theme on more than one website?

Hi,

You would have to buy a license for each project, Envato specifies that each theme can be used for one project (site)/domain: http://themeforest.net/licenses/standard

Thanks! Alin V.

We have two different domains, one for staging and one for production? I hope we can install the theme on both, right?

Hi,

Yes, it’s ok, you can install and use it on a staging site without activating it or you can use the same purchase code to activate it on both.

Thanks! Lucian C. tagDiv
