Hello,

I updated to Newspaper 8.5 from Newspaper 7 and all of my post pages aren’t working properly. They are now full screen and the sidebar is on top of the post content. My single images inside my post are too big now also. I have tried different post templates, but it does the same thing all of them. How can I fix this?

Hi,

That probably means you used Visual composer on the posts. This is happening because of the tagDiv composer introduced in version 8 of the theme.
This composer will be automatically installed and activated when the theme theme is installed or updated. Please go in the plugins section and deactivate the tagDiv composer. Everything should display properly then.

Thanks

Hello,

I would actually like to use the Tagdiv composer, please advise on the steps I need to take to do this and correct my current posts. I also created a new post and there was not an option to use the Tagdiv composer. Please assist.

Thanks

Hi,

Visual composer was never supposed to be used on posts, this is mentioned in the documentation
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
That is why it is initially disabled for post pages. The tagDiv composer can only be used on pages, it cannot be enabled on posts.
The best way would be to continue using Visual composer further in this case. Posts containing Visual composer elements will not display properly when the tagDiv composer is active.

Thanks

Hello,

So if I can’t use visual composer for posts and tagDiv can’t be used for post, what can I use for posts if I want to continue using tagDiv for my pages?

Thanks

You can keep using visual composer for posts and pages. Just deactivate tagdiv composer. See the theme docs.
