Hi Saurabh Sharma, my boss purchased your theme (a really great theme!) some months…And now I am working with it, again… your theme is great, can you help me.

How I can make my theme look exactly like your theme on my server?

Look my screenshot:

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B35hFTYzS-b8UUVJclFlc2JZSEE/view?usp=drivesdk URL: http://noticiasymas.phpnet.us/

some idea?

Thanks a lol (sorry by my bad english)

Hello Enigmagirl,

Thank you for kind words and feedback. It seems you have already fixed the issue. I can see the site corrected now.

For reference, it was required to remove all widgets from the top and header widget area via Appearance > Widgets.

P.S. Please try to post message from actual purchase account or send me a mail at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com along with the purchase code. This is required so that I can provide you support.

We need to change the order of featured articles on homepage and in categories.

We’ve used sortable sticky posts for such task: https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/ and displayed them in custom theme. Is it possible to apply similar concept using your theme?

I understand homepage and categories are built using blocks, so the top block can be the one using the sticky posts sorted by menu_order field, limited by some number of such articles. Below this block everything can be as usual, based on the latest articles.

I try to view the pre-built layouts for NewsPlus in Page Builder by SiteOrigin but all I see is SiteOrigin themes (I think). https://i.imgsafe.org/7efd0e3683.png Can you tell me where to see the NewsPlus layouts and what plug-in needs to be activated? Thank you.

Hello Jeff,

The two main files responsible for showing page builder layouts are functions.php and includes/page-builder-layouts.php. So make sure these two are updated to latest version. Right now it seems the page-builder-layouts.php file doesn’t exists on your server theme folder.

Regards

I am having trouble fixing. Is there a conflict between Page Builder by SiteOrigin and Options Framework?

Hello Jeff,

There is no known conflict between Options Framework and SO Builder. If the problem is regarding prebuilt layouts, they shall be visible if the files which I mentioned earlier are available in your theme. You can send me your site URL and login details at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com if you want me to have a look. I will check it.

Hi Saurabh, We have just updated NewsPlus Child theme, Version: 2.4.5 but in the Pagebuilder templates Home 10 and Home 11 are not showing. Can you help please? Thank you

Hello PeeblesMedia,

Kindly check if the newsplus/includes/page-builder-layouts.php file is updated with latest one or not. The layouts are included in this file.

Regards

Hi,

My wordpress now using Newsplus theme 2.1.1. I want to upgrade to the latest version. Do i have to reinstall or just replace certain file into the them folder just like in changelog? one more thing, i wanted to increase the number of main page post to let say 10, I’ve changed inside but it didn’t change anything. My website is www.mekanika.com.my.

Thank you

Syukran

Hello Syukran,

The are around 12 intermediate versions between 2.1.1 and the current version 2.4.5. So I would suggest installing a fresh copy of the theme, replacing the old one. Also update/replace “NewsPlus Shortcodes” plugin with the latest one.

Your Home page is set as the default blog page. The number of posts on this page can be changed inside Settings > Reading > Blog pages show at most. Change this to the desired number and save settings. This shall work.

Regards

Thank you, I will try to upgrade by installing fresh copy of the theme. But for the number of post, I have tried it but still no changes.

Hello,

For the number of posts, kindly send me your site URL and login details at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com after updating the theme. I will check and fix it.

Regards

Hi, I am having trouble with the featured image sizes on mobile. The images are fine on desktop however when viewing on smart phone there is gray shading around the image. Is there a stanard size image to upload so that its the correct size across all devices? Thanks

Hello jazskimo,

Can you send me your site URL please. Also mention which section is having improper sizes on mobile. I will suggest appropriate size.

Generally on mobile, all content is stacked in 100% width. So a minimum 480px to 600px image will work good on mobile as well as desktop. I can tell more by looking at your site URL.

Regards

Hello SaurabhSharma

I´ve tried to update the theme with the last version but when I upload the files: functions.php, header.php, and style.css the images are ok but insteat of the post I only see the codec lines in all pages, like: http://www.bierzotv.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/btv.png

The others files uploaded are ok.

Thanks

Raul

Yes, I didn´t update the theme since 2013, I´ll try that. Thanks a lot Raul

You’re welcome. :)

Hi, I would like to enable a Advertisement banner area that is right side of site logo on this Demo page. http://preview.themeforest.net/item/newsplus-magazineeditorial-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/4208250 Could you tell me how to do it? Regards

Hello tosssy,

1. Navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Header > Header Style. Set it to “default” and save settings.

2. Next, navigate to Appearance > Widgets. Inside “Default Header Bar” use a Text Widget and place your ad code inside it. It can be a simple img tag or a Google ad code. Save the widget and check the site.

Regards

hello sir, complete your theme good. i am facing issue in regarding more option in home page. i added more option from edit page but when i add this too much empty space appearing beside the more option. check this https://postimg.org/image/c8oq91e2p/

tell me how add more option help me. my domain cinesarathi.com

In that case, use Content Aware Sidebars plugin. Using this plugin you can specify exclusive sidebars and widget area per post, category or single posts. Using this plugin, create exclusive widget areas for your ad page and then use no widgets in them. By doing so they will show blank space.

Regards

iam sorry i dont know how to use this plugin it is totally confusing

Hello,

You just need to create a new sidebar and a rule to show it only on your ads page. Or there is one more plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/. Using this you simply need to add ! is_page('xx') to the widget so that it doesn’t load on the ads page.

If you want I can log in and set Content Aware Sidebar for you. Let me know.

i used the ” Video ” post format and provided YouTube video URL inside post options panel, but the home page does not display the video thumbnail, there is only the title. How to do to display the thumbnails with the arrow inside (like in the live demo) on the home page, and not just in one post? Thank you

http://remontolub.ru I removed hide_video=”true” from the code and the thumbnails seen appeared on the main page. Thank you

But Your life demo when you click on the arrow in the video thumbnail there is a transition to the post where this video. When I click on the arrow in the thumbnail to the video post the video starts to show without going to the post.

Hello,

The arrow will be shown only if you use hide_video=”true”. You have removed it. :) If you remove it, you will see a video embed (which you do not want). So use hide_video=”true”, and set a featured image for the post. You will see the image thumbnail with an arrow icon. Please be aware that video thumbnail is not created automatically. You will need to set a featured image to the post.

HI, I have News Plus version : 2.1.2 as well. That version work with Japanese character slug, but latest version : 2.4.5 does not work. Does this theme has specific option of URL or Language? Because it’s a bit troublesome things. I suppose that the ver. 2.1.2 is encording Japanese characters for slug and permanent link automatically. By the way, Wordpress default feature settings of language specified Japanese. Could you tell me some solution if you have. Best regards.

Hello tossy,

There is no theme specific option for URL or slug. In both version, there is no change related to this issue. However, it can be due to other factors like .htaccess file configuration or database encoding. See this thread for reference.

Language settings are specified inside WordPress > Settings > General, which is a WordPress feature. The theme post titles and links are sanitized and escaped using native functions. So I can confirm it is not theme related.

Are you using v2.1.2 on same domain or other site? If so, check if the .htaccess files have some changes when compared to each other.

Regards

Thank you for reply. I have another site using News Plus theme in deferent web server. So I will check .htaccess files. Thank you for kindness explain :)

No problem :)

Hello tossy,

Log in to WordPress and navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Blog > Hide Post Meta. Enable this option and save settings. This will hide post meta on all archives (category, tag, etc.).

Great! Thank you!!

Hi, I would like to use “Contact Form 7” plugin, because of edit the form input sections and Japanese translated section titles manually. I’ve tried it but does not work. Could you tell me how to use that? If the plugin is impossible to use, tell me how to edit sections titles please.

best regards

Hello tosssy,

Thank you for purchasing the theme. The theme is fully compatible with Contact Form 7 plugin. Can you please describe what issue you are facing. Like, forms not showing up, or mail not getting sent. A URL or screenshot will be helpful too.

Regards

Excuse me, the plugin does work! It was related to permanent link that automatically the post title is written in Japanese characters. It seems the permanent link must be in alphabetic. So ignore my question. Thanks.

No problem. Thank you for sharing the solution though.

Hello! How to make a menu to appear after scrolling down the page? It is implemented in your demo. Thank you

Hello FeDeRaL4iK,

Kindly navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Header. Then enable the sticky menu option and save settings.

Regards

What should I do to display only the second menu without a search form? Just like in your demo. thank you

Hello,

In that case, enable only the Main sticky navbar, and not the top sticky bar.

Regards

hi, in your live preview you have VARIATIONS 10 and 11 that excludes the sidebar and contains a nice new slider – but in your demo content you only have 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. – is the demo content for variation 10 and 11 not included?, thx in advance

Hello peterjohannesen,

The variations 10 and 11 are included as page builder format and not in text format. In order to use them, kindly install the SIteOrigin Panels page builder plugin. After that you shall see all layouts inside the “prebuilt” layout panel. Also make sure you are using latest version of theme so that these layouts are available.

Regards

Hello greico18,

Thank you for purchasing the theme.

Kindly navigate to WordPress admin’s Settings > Page Builder > Widgets. Then un-check the “Add widget class” option and save settings. Next, clear browser caches of front end and check the site again.

Regards

i need a image show for some seconds starting before loading home page then enter to website.

in html we can do with this <meta http-equiv=”refresh” content=”3;url=http://www.google.com/" />

how can i do that in your theme. is it possible if possible plz help me

Hello mrcgoud,

That code can be added easily in theme. For that, log in to WordPress and navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > General > Custom head markup. Paste the required code in it and save changes. That code will be added in head node of site.

Regards

i created a page cinesarathi.com/advertisement, this page should be come first then after 10 sec it should be redirect to cinesarathi.com

Hello,

In previous method, the code will apply to all pages. If you want it to show only for the advertisement page, the code needs to be pasted in header.php file. To do so, navigate to Appearance > Editor. Then click on header.php file and paste this code just before the wp_head() call inside the head node of file:

<?php if ( is_page( 20977 ) ) { ?>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="10;url=http://cinesarathi.com" />
<?php } ?>

The “20977” is page ID of advertisement page on your site. Save these changes. Make sure to remove the code from “Theme Options > General > Custom head markup” which you added earlier.

Regards

Hello, is it still possible to activate there the same grey menue layout http://bestwordpressbusinessthemes.com/newsplus-wordpress-theme/ ?

Hello Danil01,

Yes that is possible. The menu background color and link colors can be changed using WordPress customizer’s color picker. This can also be changed using a bit of CSS. I can help with both if required.

Hi – I am having trouble with the ‘social sharing buttons’. I am running theme version 2.4.5 and have a paid license (can provide # if needed). I created a child theme for your theme. These sharing buttons were working fine until recently. I can confirm that “Show social sharing buttons” is checked, and I have selected the following to appear: Facebook, Twitter, G+, Pinterest and LinkedIn. Here is a sample post: http://www.niagaracollege.ca/insidenc/2016/05/07/message-dan-patterson-strategic-planning-underway-board-approves-balanced-budget-2016-2017/. You’ll notice the word ‘tweet’ appears as a plain link and the modal opens in a new tab. The only one that works properly is Pinterest. The other options appear to have been ‘hidden’ in the CSS, but I can’t figure out how or why. It seems like some CSS and maybe JS is missing? This Inside NC site is one in a large multisite and is running a number of plugins. I have disabled every plugin that could be interacting poorly with no effect. I do not see any javascript errors, or double loading javascript that could be causing this. Do you have ANY idea why this is happening?

Hello cringeisennc,

Thank you for purchasing the theme. I just checked the post link. I can see the sharing buttons properly http://prntscr.com/bpuuny. Kindly confirm if the problem is already fixed. Also let me know in which browser you are facing this issue.

This may generally happen due to broken JS code or missing JS library which loads these buttons. Sometimes the third party server may be slow which causes failure in loading of JavaScript for twitter, G+, etc. Your site doesn’t show any JS errors in console, nor there is any CSS conflict which may hide buttons.

Regards

That’s very strange. The issue happens for me in Chrome and Firefox, regardless of whether I am logged in or not. Thanks for looking into it – I agree about the missing JS, and couldn’t find any errors either. For some reason when I view in Firebug it shows the missing buttons as hidden (greyed out in Firebug), but I can’t see any CSS that would cause them to be hidden… I will continue investigating.

Hello,

I just checked in FireFox and Chrome again. The buttons work as intended. Kindly try by clearing all browser caches, cookies, etc. That shall work.

Regards
