Hello, how are you? I would like to know how it is possible to insert a custom field above the category in a single post. I am trying to find the path in the single post so that this field is displayed, but I could not find the exact place to insert this section. <?php if ( get_field(‘chapeu’) ) : ?> <?php echo esc_html( get_field('chapeu') ); ?> <?php endif; ?>

I would also like to know how to make the main title of the news and the meta of the list blocks appear above the thumbnail and the continue reading below the thumbnail on mobile, as in the example print. Could you please help me with this? exemple> https://www.nytimes.com/

It works, it throws the thumbnail down, however the excerpt is above the thumbnail, in fact the order would be, title, meta, excerpt, thumbnail and continue reading, how do I identify each item of this to assemble the correct css?

Hi diariocarioca,

Unfortunately It’s not possible because for the List layout, to make it work on Desktop we need to wrap thumbnail as a block, and the rest as another block. Hence text-block and thumbnail-block are 2 blocks. Text pieces (title, excerpt..) are always together. Think about the desktop version, you’ll see this makes sense. So It’s not possible to archive what you desire, unfortunately.

Ok, thanks.

Can this theme be used in RTL mode?

Hi Akh7,

We don’t support RTL officially but I saw few customers used RTL already. However, please use RTL at your own risk, we do not support it officially.

Kind regards,

hi again … when i put on a post group a tag id to display the post group disapears… What can i do about that? Also how do i diselect marked categories on post groups?

Hi JAYDI70,

I guess the problem comes from the fact that you have both categories & tag query, and under that condition there’s no posts satisfying at all. But just my guess.

To deselect category, you can use control + click (windows) or cmd + click (macOS).

Hope this helps,

Hello, I would like to know why I’m not receiving any theme update notifications in my dashboard. I’m still on version 6.7.3, while you’ve already released version 6.9.1. I haven’t received any email from ThemeForest or any notification in the dashboard.

Thank you in advance.

Hi BagaStudio,

We update regularly so we only send email notification for major & important updates (eg. v6.9 -> v7.0). You can install & config the Envato Market plugin, you’ll get theme update notification from Dashboard.

Kind regards,

Cuong Tran

is there any paywall features?

Hi warungtutorial123,

The Fox is guaranteed to be compatible with Restrict Content Pro (free plugin). We don’t have a demo for now or any tutorials, but It’ll work. And we offer refund within 14 days without reasons.

Kind regards,

Hi hellodaviddavis1,

Please try to add this code into Customize > Additional CSS:

.can-stretch-wide .wp-block-essential-blocks-slider.alignwide{width:unset;}

Hope this helps,

How do I use the “washington” theme?

Hi euarnaldo,

You’ll see that demo to import in Dashboard > Fox Magazine > Import Demo if your theme is in v6.9

Here’s the update guide, you can update theme for free.

Kind regards,

Cuong Tran

I have a presale question. I could not find any information or a demo of the paywall.

Hi danail82,

The Fox confirms to work will Restrict content pro, unfortunately we’re on the way of building the docs & demo site so It’s not available yet. Please stay tuned. If you want, you can try the theme. We guarantee 14-day money back for any reason.

Is there an easy way to create a new page showing all the posts (100% width) with pagination?

Hi derrickghh,

Sure, you can use this shortcode:

[fox_blog]

Here’s some parameters of the shortcode: https://fox.withemes.com/documentation/misc/fox_blog-shortcode/

Hope this helps,

Cuong Tran

Thanks.

1. I realised the first post is of a different format with table of contents. Is it possible to make the first post the same format as the other listed articles?

https://prnt.sc/qoJT7GxBZso9

2. How do I resize the thumbnail and article title so that they are smaller? The defaults are too big.

Hi derrickghh,

Could you please open a support ticket here with your details? (single post URL for instance) so I’ll take a look. Without your site URL, here’s my guess:

1/ Please check your TOC settings in Dashboard > Settings > Table of contents. It depends on how you chose to insert TOC. If you insert TOC after certain number headings and your post has no headings, It’ll take related posts.

2/ Also, this depends where you want to resize stuff. For a news site there are many places: homepage, archive, mega menu, related post, single post, sidebar.. so please specify with screenshots + red circles.

I suggest you to open a support ticket to communicate better. Here’s for the presale comments.

Kind regards,

Cuong Tran

Hello, I can’t make a ticket, but I would like to know how to increase the width of the images in an article to match, or slightly less than, the primary article image at the top of the article.

My website is image-focused, and the theme restricts this.

https://rawxmag.com/backstage-at-kyivs-october-palace/

Hi hellodaviddavis1,

The header image is where we can control the structure while body image is where we can’t (yes, your site has structured photos but in general, It’s “content” so It allows chaotic photo structures, some use Gutenberg, like you, and some use Classic editor). That’s why It’s not easy to control that way.

The best approach is to use fullswidth alignment for your photos, then add following code into Customize > Additional CSS:

.can-stretch-full .alignfull {
    margin-left: calc((110% - 100vw) / 2);
    margin-right: calc((110% - 100vw) / 2);
}

Hope this helps,

Cuong Tran

Hi Cuang

Is there anyway to prevent the preloading of the article content on mobile? We have a client complaining about this, their visitors are scrolling to the footer before the content loads. See video example:

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/8dd0lvGjVyM

Thanks

Hi ComeAlivesorted

Please continue the conversation in your ticket.

For others: This is not a common issue. This happened due to some custom CSS code added by some plugin on that site.

i read about an issue with error(0), it’s showing even if all required plugins and extensions like cUrl installed. how to fix that?

Hi s4suryapal,

We don’t have that issue any more. We haven’t heard anyone reported that issue for a while.

Kind regards,

~ Cuong Tran

Hi, is it possible for you to update the twitter icon with the new X icon, because on our site is showing the old one?

Hi CreativeGnora,

In fact the Fox latest version is using X-icon. Which version are you currently using? Please see the update guide ».

Kind regards,

Cuong Tran

This feature: “Disable the default author display under this post” is no longer working on your theme. Please resolve urgently.

Hi ComeAlivesorted,

The latest version is v6.8.x. As I have just tested few minutes ago, this functionality is still working well.

https://prnt.sc/nvKjRomjIavs

You can update theme to the latest version. Here’s the update guide.

If you still have problem with this issue, please open a support ticket with your login info so we can check the backend.

~ Cuong Tran

Hi Cuang

I have updated the theme and this feature still does not work.

Please advise?

Hi ComeAlivesorted,

Is that author box of The Fox theme? Please note some plugins also create author box after the post as well. If you have some plugins doing so, please deactivate that plugins. The Fox theme can’t hide the author box generated by other plugins.

In case you’re 100% sure It’s the author box generated by The Fox theme and It’s not hided by The Fox theme, please open a support ticket here with your site URL + site login info + single post URL, I’ll help you to check. Note: You’ll need to renew your support for this.

Kind regards,

~ Cuong Tran

Hi licenzeadv,

Yes, The Fox theme doesn’t support Elementor. Its has its own lightweight builder.

Kind regards, ~ Cuong Tran

Hello, Do i need to buy a licence for each website ?

Hi lamande,

Yes, you’ll need one license for each website.

I have no longer paid support for my website, so I will ask here.

Everything is updated, but somehow since fall 2024 the megamenu stopped working. No change has been done to the website layout in last 2 years or so. I have checked today, and if I turn on the megamenu on one of the items in the menu, the rest will just disappear.

Also, the MASONRY effect on the main page (Pine demo page) just broke down by itself. Again, no change has been done. This looks terrible. Blank spaces.

please check: https://www.kitelife.cz

For those who’re reading this, here’s the problem:

https://prnt.sc/pzH0BlIwVIBD

Yes, it was a small stupid mistake made by the editor on the website. Easy to missed, but caused a lot trouble.

Thank you for great support!

Great! I’m glad everything is working well now.

Why are there NO longer any discounts for The Fox – Magazine Newspaper News WordPress Theme? On the demo preview page of the theme, the price is still listed as “Buy now $39.” I was planning to purchase at least two licenses for this WordPress theme and thought the discount would last throughout January. Thank you, and congratulations on the theme!

Hi georgevalcu,

Unfortunately the discount lasted only for a week. Sorry for the misleading on the preview demo page, It was cached and I forgot to clear the cache :( We’re clearing the cache now.

So so sorry for this.

Alright. We’ve been waiting for a discount on this WordPress theme for a long time. Unfortunately, your discounts are quite rare and short-lived. Moreover, I asked about Cyber Monday to see if you would have any discounts, but you didn’t. I was thinking it would be helpful to have a notification system for when a WordPress theme goes on sale, so we don’t have to constantly check the price and look for discounts. Will there be any future discounts for this theme? Thank you!

Hi georgevalcu,

I’m so sorry for this. We don’t have a notification system but we have a customer group. Normally we’ll announce things there, sale for instance.

You can also subscribe to Envato Newsletter (bottom of their website). I guess they’ll provide you with sale emails.

Behind The Fox is a super super tiny studio. Sale is only way we boost a little traffic for our website with trade off (the profit). If you understand Envato price model, when you go on sale, you sacrifice most your profit for it. We’re not big so we rarely go with this strategy. We provide updates, support and maintenance all year. May be when The Fox is bigger (like top #3, #4 of News category on ThemeForest), we’ll have much more sale occasions.

Thanks for your interest and kind regards,

Cuong Tran

Why did you assign H4 to the main dropdown menu items? This way the hierarchy of subheadings is broken. Where can this be replaced?

Hi vlad_nevsky,

H4 or a heading is used for the post title by default. We’ll note to research on SEO impact of this. Unfortunately, for now It can’t be changed easily. You need to edit PHP files

1/ fox/inc/functions.php file ~ line 459

if ( ! in_array( $title_tag, ['h2','h3','h4','h5'])) {

to

if ( ! in_array( $title_tag, ['h2','h3','h4','h5','p','span'])) {

2/ fox/inc/header.php file ~ line 1173,

<?php fox56_title([ 'title_extra_class' => 'post-nav-item-title', 'title_tag' => 'h4', ]); ?>

to

<?php fox56_title([ 'title_extra_class' => 'post-nav-item-title', 'title_tag' => 'p', ]); ?>

Hope this helps,

Cuong Tran

Thank you!
