Hi

can i delete this folder?

Newspaper\includes\demos

Hi,

If that is what is required, you could remove the folder containing the demos. Be sure to not remove the currently installed demo (default or other) You will not have the possibility to install a demo after removing it.

Thank you! Simion C.

What blocks are used for demo “Say What” on the home page?

Hi,

You can use the browser inspector to identify the elements used.

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/

That particular demo has a Big grid 4 on top, followed by block 5, block 23, block 12 and then the latest articles section using module 18. All these elements can be seen here

- https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-4/

- https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-5/

- https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-23/

- https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-12/

These are the base elements used, custom demo design is used for some of them.

Thank you! Simion C.

No offense but you have wasted your time a tad with the new demos… they resemble something from 2004 and look a bit yucky. Very simple css wise could have made them myself in 10 mins.

Your best demos are retrowave, say what and business magazine…. to be honest im not bothered about ANY of the other demos. More like those three would be cool. Viral magazines and features like allowing users to post their own posts via frontend would be cool too :)

Anyway hope this points you in right direction.

Thanks for the new update anyway.

Hi,

Thank you for your honest feedback, no offense taken. The new demos showcase the newly added theme features, after the latest update. There will be more demos available in future updates. Each user can install the demo they want, either this or that depending on preference. Having many gives more options to choose from.

Thank you! Simion C.

I istalled the new 8.5 release and installed the tagDiv Multi-Purpose plugin but it crached the website. I had to remove the plugin and all went back to normal

Hi,

Please try and re-install the theme by FTP

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/

Also deactivate all plugins except theme plugins if possible, check if this has any effect. We can take a look if there is still and issue after trying this, send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information for further investigation.

Thank you! Simion C.

After update visual composer is screwed up. It’s ignoring 6 column layout and showing images one below other…

Hi,

If you use Visual composer for the pages, please try deactivating the tagDiv composer plugin. Then check the results. If there is still an issue, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information. We will take a look.

Thank you! Simion C.

Hi,

When I click on author image(http://prntscr.com/hhkgv0), it’s redirecting to the homepage (http://spoilcoconut.com)

How to we can fix it?

Hi,

It seems the issue is solved at the moment from what I can see

In “force full width”,I set stretch container and 1200px content,the header and footer become 1200px.But the breadcrumbs and content area don`t become 1200px,they still is 1068px. Why?

Hi,

The settings you mention will affect header and footer elements. The breadcrumbs section or other containers in the page will not be affected by these settings. If you have any further questions please create a new topic in our official forum

Thank you! Simion C.

Darn it… I think I missed the Cyber Monday sale. I’ve purchased this theme twice was going to purchase two more. Hopefully you have a Christmas Sale.

Hi,

There could be a special holiday discount, but I cannot say for sure. Something like this is could be planned for that period.

Thank you! Simion C.

Hey folks, I’ve noticed many people have asked how to retain image quality on their sites as seen on demo, after searching around , here is what actually worked for me.

I disabled smush plugin, then i went to settings – media and changed all the image settings to 0, then add new plugin called code snippet and inserted this code

add_filter(‘jpeg_quality’, function($arg){return 100;});

hit save and activate. I have to say image quality has improved vastly.

please make sure you use the image size as in demo, right click on the demo image, then inspect element, view the image size and set your featured image size accordingly. probably you guys know this but for those who don’t, i hope this helps

Hi,

Thank you for your suggestions, other users will surely appreciate the advice and perhaps try this solution for their websites.

Thank you! Simion C.

How do i upload the new 8.5 without deleting my website, getting this error: Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

Destination folder already exists. /home2/clickpl4/public_html/aenews/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/

Theme installation failed.

Hi,

Please follow the theme update guide, and the mentioned steps depending on update method

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

The most recommended method is updating by FTP. There will be no problem if you carefully follow the guide.

Thank you! Simion C.

Friends good night!

Would it be possible to install a Newspaper Black without replacing a house that is on the air?

Hi,

Unfortunately I don’t quite understand what you are asking. You can install the demo you want from the available ones. Only one demo can be active at a time. If you have a demo installed, installing a different one will replace it.

Thank you! Simion C.

Thanks … You might think, in a next update, to create a page with a demo, such as Visual Composer!

Hello,

I’m not sure what demo you are referring to .Our theme already comes with visual composer free of charge and a lot of demos to choose from. If you do not know how to create a page, please use this guide to learn how to use our page builder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial

Thank you! Bogdan B

Happy to see that there a lot of new settings and templates, on the other note, a bit disappointed. The only problem is that there is a move away from a news theme to a multi website setup. I buy this theme for the news functions, not for a general WordPress website. A lot of functions are a little outdated in comparision with other news themes. Examples; The Image viewer, The video player, and the post settings. We are waitning for a nice new designed modern photo player and a modern video player. A couple of options:

- Blockquote styles are outdated - Ads after a couple of paragrams - AMP integration - New picture shower, with more options ( little previews)

It would be better to main focus on the magazine features. For a magazine theme, there a tons of new intersting modern functions. Well disappointed, with this new update.

This sound this update is more based for more sales, and not on the whishes from the customer? We are going to think seriously to migrate to a new magazine theme, with only focus on the news and magazine options.

Hi,

We are sorry that the newly added features are a cause of disappointment for you. Please note that are more to come in future updates, to further increase the theme options and possibilities. Popular user requests are considered as always, in time many will be available.

Thank you! Simion C.

After upgrading to the newest version, the search box has moved to a wrong position: http://www.screencast.com/t/ufHMXcGuV7Sc

How can I fix this?

Hi,

Please create a new topic on our official forum, and provide a link to your website so we can inspect the issue

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/forum/newspaper/

Thank you! Simion C.

Done. Waiting for your reply there.

Hi, for some reason, after the recent update I cannot save anything built with wp bakery page builder..? After I “update” the page all added elements disappear. Is this a know issue?

Hi,

That should not happen. Please check the theme system status and see that it is set according to this guide

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/

You can ask your hosting provider to make the required changes for you, if needed. Then check if the pages are saved/updated properly. If there is still a problem, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login information, we will take a look.

Thank you! Simion C.

Honestly this theme is GREAT for me, but on “Opera Mini” browser the pictures are not visible or shown. You have to know that Opera Mini is used by most developing countries. Because of its speed and less data consume. So dear developers if you can please please solve this problem. Thanks!

Hi,

I have tested the theme live demo using the Opera mini browser, the images are loading properly from what I can see. It could be related to the browsers data saving feature, try disabling the option or changing the configuration in the browser settings and check the results.

Thank you! Simion C.

i loved your theme .. are u support RTL ?

Hi,

Thank you for your appreciation. The theme is not compatible with RTL.

Thank you! Simion C.

Happy to see that update is with new demos and more of tagdiv composer updates. But why is the theme moving away from magazine concept ?. The demos do not represent magazine type. Those demos are easily available if you buy other top 10 themes. Why not add magazine related features ?. I truly believe that you are not focusing on what customers are asking for.

I can provide some of the examples to prove :-

Adding linkedin and VK share button was requested by tons of users yet you ignored this since long time. We have to edit the template files and then add these buttons everytime which is very annoying. Why is it so difficult to add social counters ?.

We do not have built-in options to show last post updated date. No other post formats apart from standard and video. There are still no options available to customize mobile theme such as adding back to top button, arranging the posts etc. I know this can be done with code but i am tired of adding codes in custom css section.

There is still no option to add multiple ads after x number of paragraph. Blockquote styles are outdated and no way to customize it.

Suggestion – Listen to your customers and please implement the features that people want. Implement the features that a good magazine theme should have. We want more of theme features than fancy full screen demos.

Hi,

Adding more features in the theme should not be considered changing direction. That is not the intention. In time the options you mention will most likely be available in the theme as well. These are present on our list and will be available in the future. All the suggestions and recommendations made by our users are not ignored, each is considered and analyzed.

However it is not easy to prioritize the features that are implemented with each update. The developer team is working hard to implement as many as possible and after properly testing them, they are introduced. So I can honestly say that we listen to user feedback everything is carefully considered. In time more and more of the popular suggestions and requests will be available.

Thank you! Simion C.

“All the suggestions and recommendations made by our users are not ignored, each is considered and analyzed” – Does it take 2 years to analyze the requests ?. I mean you can atleast add social sharing options which is there is almost every theme these days. You say requests must get popular, how much popular ?. How do we even know when will you implement them ?. :)

“The developer team is working hard to implement as many as possible ” – This is the actual problem. We don’t even know what dev team is working on. There is no insight on this and no one to confirm that in the next update what features would be added. I have asked this several times and I was told straight no on my face. Look at other mag themes, they have created a request section where users can request for features. That is how they analyze the requests and implement it. In your case you implement only what you want. Adding landing pages and full screen demos was never that popular but you added them because you wanted to just increase your sales. Accept it :)

I will wait for next update, if your dev teams add their own features without looking at what customers are requesting, then I will move to another theme. The other mag themes are offering migration plugin for free where i won’t loose any data. So All the best.

Hello,

The features we add in our theme are decided by our developers and decisional party. These decisions are based on the most requested features. The fact that the social icons were not implemented is because they were not among the most requested features. The features are discussed and implemented based on popularity, meaning we count the number of requests and we consider if the options is viable or not for our themes. Not all requests make into the theme though even the most popular ones. We are aware our decisions will not please everyone but we try to please as many of our customers as possible.

If you have any further questions please open a new topic on our official support forum at http://forum.tagdiv.com/forum/newspaper/ The comments section here is destined for presale questions.

Thank you! Bogdan B

I am using Newspaper 7, and all of my pages are built with Visual Composer – over 100+ pages. Is it possible to update to the new version and your builder without having to re-build every single page with new short codes essentially?

Hi,

To make the transition form Visual composer to the tagDiv composer the pages have to be re-created with the new page builder. That would be the only way, and also ensure that everything works properly

- https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/

The tagDiv composer is easy to use, pages can be created and configured in no time. It will require some getting used to, but eventually it will not be difficult at all.

Thank you! Simion C.
