I’m trying to install the demo on this Newspaper theme and in order to do that it’s asking me to install the Visual Composer, But when I install the Visual Composer as instructed it gives the error message:
It said:

The plugin does not have a valid header.

Downloading install package from http://www.investment.id/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/plugins/js_composer.zip…

Unpacking the package…

Installing the plugin…

Destination folder already exists. /home/invadm/public_html/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/

Plugin install failed.

Please advise to resolve this.

Hi

This error usually appear when the destination folder for the plugin already exist in wordpress. Try to login on your site via ftp and navigate to your-wp-install/wp-content/plugins and delete js_composer folder then try to upload the plugin again from your dashboard. You can also try to directly upload plugin’s files in wordpress via ftp. To do that follow this steps:
– locate js_composer.zip file in Newspaper-tf folder then unzip it on your computer
– upload js_composer folder in your-wp-install/wp-content/plugins folder
– go to your dashboard and try to activate the plugin

Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
