  2. Hello. Does this Newspaper theme come with the demo content I can see at the demo page that comes with the purchase page?
    That is am I getting all the pics and layout that is there?
    Thank you.
    Val.

    • Hi,

      Depending on the demo, the images that are imported when installing it may be different than then the ones used on the live demos. But most of them will import the exact same images. Please let us know if you have more questions. I suggest to send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and we can discuss more there.

      Thank you!

    • Hi Indra,

      Thank you for consider getting one of the tagDiv themes for your website. About your inquiry, that depends. The Envato license terms are mentioned here – https://themeforest.net/licenses/standard. If the subdomains are related to the same subject of the main site, a single license will be required. If the subdomains have no relation to each other or the main site and are about different things, they will each require a license key. If you have more pre-sale questions, please drop us an email at contact@tagdiv.com. We’re looking forward to hearing from you! Have a lovely day 🙂

  5. I want to activate website in different language in subdirectory for same domain of activated theme. Can use it on main domain and differences language website in subdirectory with single license?

    • Hi! Sure. You can use the same license theme on a subdirectory if you plan on creating a testing site, but if we are talking about totally different sites with different content, then only one theme per install is legally allowed. One theme license means one website. Thank you for understanding! If you need any technical assistance, please open a new topic on the forum or send us an email. We’re always ready to help you out! Have a lovely day 🙂

  6. Hello,
    – I want to install the theme ‘COVID19 ITALY PRO’ on my website, what I have to buy is ‘Newspaper – 69 $’?
    – And then how do I choose which version of the newspaper I want to be installed?

    • Hi Afonso! Thank you for your given interest. Covid19 Italy PRO is a pre-made demo design that comes included with the Newspaper WordPress Theme package. After you purchase a Newspaper theme license, you have to download the theme’s package from your ThemeForest account, then install it onto your website. You do not have to choose the Newspaper theme version, as you’ll buy the latest version available. If you have more pre-sale questions, please drop us an email at contact@tagdiv.com. Thank you!

  7. Hi,
    Does the Newspaper X Theme fully support RTL languages like Arabic? And how compatible/reliable is your tadDiv composer with Arabic content?

    Thanks,

    • Hello,

      Thank you for your interest in our theme. Unfortunately, our Newspaper theme has not been developed to support the RTL version. Also, please note that it is not an easy task to rewrite all the theme’s functionality including the core page builder and required plugins to make it RTL; this means that the theme might be affected and we cannot provide support for this. I’m sorry! If you change your mind and want to build a website for the left to right language, please send us your pre-sale questions at contact@tagdiv.com, and we would be happy to assist you.

      Thank you for understanding!

    • Hi Kevin! Thank you for reaching out to us. Newspaper WordPress theme 10.3.5 has been recently launched on Themeforest. The only legal way to use Newspaper Theme is to purchase it from ThemeForest, Envato Market, as this platform is the exclusive market we’re selling our theme. Furthermore, when you buy a Newspaper theme license from ThemeForest, Envato issues you a unique item’s purchase key that unlocks the most important features of the Newspaper theme, allowing you to access the future updates on the theme and enter the support center. Without it, your theme is locked with no theme updates, support, and you have no access to some of the most powerful features. I hope you’ll find the information a useful one. If you have any pre-sale question, please drop as a line via email. Have a lovely day!

    • Hi Tabrez! Thank you for reaching out to us. Can you please include your message into an email to contact@tagdiv.com or open a new topic on forum.tagdiv.com so that our support team can guide you? Unfortunately, the Blog area is not assigned to the Customer Support Center. I’m sorry! Thank you so much for understanding. We look forward to helping you!

    • Hello,

      Thank you for your message! I have checked your website and it seems to be functional. Unfortunately, the blog account is not assigned to our support forum and if you want more technical assistance, please open a new topic at our support forum from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/forum/newspaper/ and our team are ready to assist you.

      Best regards!

  12. I’ve sent request a customer support and looked everywhere but I cannot find out how many downloads of the newspaper X theme are allowed once purchased it. I am in the process of upgrading from windows to Mac computer and don’t want to have to purchase it twice if possible.thx

    • Hello,

      Once you have purchased the theme, please note that you have no limit on downloading it. You also have access to updates for the entire lifetime of the theme. Normally, the Envato policy allows using a theme only on one install. You can, however, use the theme on a sub-domain if you plan on creating a testing site, but if we are talking about totally different sites with different content, then only one theme per install is legally allowed.

      Thank you!

    thanks in advanced
    Asís

    • Hi,

      I have checked your website but I did not see any crash on your website. Everything seems to work as expected. Make sure that your system status was correctly increased according to our documentation and also, update the PHP version to be a minimum of 7.2 as the PHP version.

      Thank you!

  15. Hi, I am having trouble while installing the Newspaper themes’ plugins like composer and other relevant plugins, i am a premium customer. nothing is reflecting on home page. i have mentioned my website name. Plz help.

    • Hi,

      From what I saw, you are using an old theme version like Newspaper 5.3 and that’s why some errors occur -> https://www.screencast.com/t/DfVKhyr8SgF. If you want to achieve a better theme result, please update the theme to the latest version of it which is Newspaper 10.2 via FTP way. Please note that your actual theme version is too old and if you want to update it to the latest one it requires to recreate your entire website, using the new technologies, like Cloud. Very important is to make a full backup before each theme update.

      Thank you!

  16. I’ve done everything but when upload the newspaper 9 it gives me a different template. Idk how to fix this issue please help

  17. Hi,

    Can you also post a “How To” for performing an upgrade from an older version to a newer one?

    For example, I didn’t know I had to delete the existing file path for Newspaper as your program doesn’t delete the original one, and it errors out if it finds the same directory path.

    Really annoying (and possibly dangerous) that I have to physically delete anything in my host’s file directory for an upgrade installation to work!

    • Hi,

      There is a theme update guide as well, here it is https://tagdiv.com/update-newspaper-theme/ If you follow the steps for the methods described in the guide, there should be no problem. The FTP update method is the most recommended and reliable, but as always please make a backup before just in case. If you are having problems updating or after the update, send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login and cPanel or FTP if possible. Let us know.

      Thank you!

  18. When I say import, I am encountering such an error, please help, we have given money to pity us ERROR: Imported data is invalid. Failed to update the theme settings!

  19. Does the template activation code work for multiple installations for development copy and also several live websites?

    • Hi,

      Yes, for development copy, you can use the same activation code. Normally, the Envato policy allows using a theme only on one install. You can, however, use the theme on a sub-domain if you plan on creating a testing site, but if we are talking about totally different sites with different content, then only one theme per install is legally allowed.

      Thank you!
