JNEWS: RATING
If we check on Themeforest.net JNews's rating, we see that practically all raters are 5 stars gave up except for a few haters. The image above also shows that the theme has now been sold on more than 11,365+ times. For a relatively new theme, that is a very high number, which is expected to increase quickly. Many good themes are sold on Themeforest despite the extremely bad reputation of the Themeforest marketplace, the themes are good.
JNEWS: DEMOS
The JNews theme offers a series of beautiful demos that can be installed with 1 click. Since it concerns blog websites, the variety in homepsge is the most important. They state that they offer more than 150+ homepages. There are very nice examples and the number will be further expanded in the course of time.
The nice thing about demos is that you can make a quick start with them. The website is already but with the wrong photos and texts in principle. So place your logo in it, adjust texts and photos and you are well on your way to having your own site.
JNEWS THEME REVIEW: WEBSHOPS
The theme is of course 100% compatible with Woocommerce, but if you are going to build a webshop then choose a theme like Astra or another theme from my top 10 for webshop themes. One can certainly build a good webshop with the JNews theme, but there is simply much better than this. There is very little to be found on their own website about the webshop or Woocommerce theme, so it is certainly not the specialty of this theme.
JNEWS: SPEED
The JNews theme is one of the fastest themes out there for Wordpress and should actually be in my list for fast WP themes. The bare theme with no extra plugins with just a optimized cache plugin produced the result presented above. Of course you can optimize your website yourself for loading time. Follow this advice here.
JNEWS: PAGEBUILDERS
The JNews theme uses the Gutenberg pagebuilder by default, but is compatible with WP Bakery Pagebuilder and Elementor Pro page builder, one of the best out there in the field. I also definitely recommend installing Elementor for free, or even better the pro version.
JNEWS: PREMIUM PLUGINS INCLUDED
JNews offers an insane amount of 3rd party plugins that you can get with it. I know of no other theme where this offer is so high. Impressive in itself, but the value should not be overestimated as they would have you believe. Other themes also come with plugins that work very well and too many plugins often do not benefit a site.
JNEWS: HEADERBUILDER
JNews offers something that has so far only been seen with top themes like Divi, a real HeaderBuilder with which you have practically no limits when it comes to the construction of your header. Technical knowledge such as HTML or PHP is not necessary for this, a child can do the laundry.
JNEWS: MORE BUILDERS
Nice such a HeaderBuilder? JNews offers a whole host of other "Builders" that I won't list all of them here, check them out on their own site if you have time. They are pictured below.
Apart from the Builders Series, the theme is packed with all kinds of great features that one would want in a blog or news website such as: Scrolling Mobile Menu, Podcast System, Subscription System, Sponsored Posts, Subscribe to Download, Multiple Authors Post, Video Preview on Hover, and much more.
JNEWS THEME REVIEW: CONCLUSION
The JNews theme is very well put together. It's an impressive blogger theme, exactly what it was built for. I would also like to see Woocommerce options that are this extensive, then it will become a high-quality multipurpose theme and will sell even better than it already does.
The price is always the problem with themes that are sold via Themeforest because they require a separate license for every website that someone has. JNews certainly offers value for money, although I would rather spend that money on one of the themes in my top 10 for WP themes this year that is even better and can all be used on as many sites as you like. I would definitely buy JNews, but for only 1 website, and for a great blog of course.
NEWSPAPER THEME (Newspaper vs JNews)
Newspaper is an elite blogger and news website theme...
NEWSPAPER 11 REVIEW
In our search for the best theme to build a news website, we quickly came across the best-selling theme in this category. The Newspaper theme recently released its latest version, Newspaper 11 or the 10th version already.
The Newspaper 11 theme was developed by Tag-Div, a Power Elite author on Themeforest. The Newspaper theme is made to handle large amounts of content and has a bold and elegant design combined with the power of versatility. Moreover, Newspaper is perfect to give websites a professional look. It can easily be considered the best news theme for Wordpress and is an indispensable theme in the collection of new and experienced WP-users in [2024].
NEWSPAPER 11 DESIGN
One does not have to be a professional web designer to make a fantastic news website with this theme. This theme is perfect for magazine, blog, and news websites. It offers a multitude of responsive & retina-ready options for beautiful display of your website on small screen devices. Newspaper also allows you to choose how to display your content on desktop, laptop, mobile and tablet.
The Newspaper Theme is always an excellent choice whether you want a website with a beautiful design, a lightning fast one, or one that is flexible. It comes with over 90+ great pre-made demo designs (30 new ones since the last upgrade) and a gallery of 1000+ pre-built design templates named Tag-Div Cloud Library.
IMPORT READY-MADE WEBSITE-DEMO'S
With the WordPress theme Newspaper, you no longer have to search and test to find the right design. It comes with many of ready-made sites for you to choose from. Newspaper offers you a custom import system, so you can preview a demo and install it with a simple click. You can also load the demo with content or just the design. If you decide to uninstall, the import system clears the website of all demo components, leaving your pages as they were before.
Newspaper 11 FRONT-END
Newspaper has a frontend page builder called Tag-Div Composer. This tool helps you edit pages effortlessly by way of drag & drop. Place the elements exactly how you envisioned it. To make things even easier, you can make difficult CSS customizations with just a few clicks.
Arranging and styling elements is now even easier. So you no longer need coding knowledge to make your dream come true. With this powerful tool you can build amazingly beautiful pages super fast. Newspaper comes with 22 multifunctional shortcodes that you can use to create corporate, personal and e-commerce websites. With the Tag-Div Composer you can work quickly and easily. That way, people really feel like working on their website.
So 1000+ elements, layouts, sections, headers, footers and home pages await you in the Tag-Div Cloud Library. Just click on what you want. For example, a 404 page, author design, footer or search page and import the elements you like from the Tag-Div servers to your website.
TAG-DIV COMPOSER VIDEO
As you can see the video gives to Newspaper 9, but this is the latest Tag-Div video out there at the moment.
PAGES AND CATEGORIES
The theme offers a large number of elements and shortcodes, numerous large grid style combinations, ready-made category page templates and 25 predefined blocks. There are also five Flex Block elements that provide additional flexibility and allow you to publish and customize articles in a versatile way. You can emphasize the "above the fold" section by using large grids that are displayed across the entire width. Your website will have a professional look with its custom features such as image slider gallery, lightbox effects, social media counters, news ticker, video menus, and many different widgets.
The Tag-Div Composer recently introduced a Fonts Style tab that allows you to create custom typography for any existing block or element. You can combine nice fonts, size or line height. So the process is natural, without implying code knowledge, or additional font customization plugins to slow down your website's performance. Another handy tool is the Translation Panel, which helps you load one of the dozens of available translations and automatically convert a list of strings. Practically every other theme needs extra plugins for this.
INTELLIGENT ADVERTISEMENTS
In this Newspaper 11 review, we also caught sight of Tag-Div's modern ad system that allows you to monetize ads without compromising the reader's experience. You can easily earn money with your website by placing ads in the 18 permanent advertising spaces. These are in prominent places such as the header, footer, article, and sidebar areas. Moreover, the Newspaper theme comes with an option to display ads on individual posts or pages, using Tag-Div Composer's page editor and the Single Post Content or Ad Box elements. You can use AdSense or HTML code.
NEWSPAPER 11 REVIEW: FUNCTIONALITY
All options and settings, the plugins, demo sites and website monitoring collected in one place, the Theme panel of Newspaper. Everything is neatly and clearly organized, and all options of the theme are easy to use for every layperson. The Tag-Div Composer is specially prepared for building blogs, news and magazine websites, and gives you a unique way to create pages, posts and headers. All results can be viewed in real time, which makes the editor extra powerful. The Tag-Div Composer offers you performance and reliability.
NEWSPAPER THEME HEADER BUILDER
More and more themes have a header builder. Newspaper also has a header builder that is very handy. In the past, people wanted to change their header, but only had a few options that just did not work out how they wanted it. Then no progress was made without knowledge of HTML. Those days are over with these skilled header builders who are practically capable of anything.
FREE PREMIUM PLUG-INS EN WIDGETS
The theme offers eight premium plugins: Tag-Div Composer, Tag-Div Cloud Library, Social Counter, Tag-Div Mobile Theme and Tag-Div Newsletter. The theme also features the top slider plugin Revolution Slider and the Bakery Pagebuilder. You can keep your audience informed through the newsletter plugin. It is equipped with eight beautiful standard designs, so that your newsletter is always in the style of your website. The plug-in for Tag-Div Newsletter is compatible with well-known sites such as MailChimp, Mailerlite and Feedburner.
The Newspaper 11 theme has also been tested with the WP Super Cache, Contact Form 7, bbPress, BuddyPress, WP Avatar plugins, Font Awesome 4 Menus, Jetpack, WooCommerce, and Yoast. Newspaper also comes with a custom plugin to help you show off your social networking stats - the Tag-Div Social Counter plugin. You also have two unique social media widgets (Instagram and Pinterest). In addition, the Tag-Div author has created 35 custom widgets that you can easily drag to your website.

NEWSPAPER 11 REVIEW CONCLUSION
I would like to start by thanking you for reading my Newspaper 11 review to the end. We are dealing with one of the better themes for [2024]. It is not yet in my top 10 of the best Wordpress themes, but maybe that will change for next year.
Newspaper 11 has proven to be the best theme for blogs and news sites for me. Well there are other very good themes that are certainly close. Newspaper 11 is equipped with the WP Bakery Pagebuilder which is another thorn in my side. This is a good but very outdated page builder, it could be much better. Apart from that, I only see very good qualities for the rest. With this theme you can go in any direction. It is not only a news theme but just a multipurpose theme. The theme costs $ 59, a more or less standard price for good themes and the theme is definitely worth the money.
NEWSPAPER VS JNEWS CONCLUSION
First of all, thank you for reading this Newspaper vs JNews comparison to the end. Both Newspaper and JNews are very good themes. Both themes are packed with features and settings. Both themes are also very suitable for building blogs and load quickly in a browser. So they are very similar, but there are some differences. For example, I would certainly not use JNews for the construction of webshops at the moment, because the theme lacks options.
Newspaper is also available as a free version, but of course less spectacular. JNews is more expensive as it requires a separate expensive license for each of your websites. That's also the case with Newspaper if you buy it through the infamous Themeforest marketplace, but Newspaper can be bought with much better conditions at their own website so you should definitely do this.
