I’m very disappointed with recent changes made to Newspaper theme.
Visual Composer was awesome and could apply to posts and not only pages which I absolutely need !
I read on the forum that we could continue using VC if we wanted but that following improvements will only apply on TD Composer.
Yeah… but you disabled frontend editing with VC, which is a really helpful feature when it comes to editing CSS !
Don’t mind about future improvements as I got all I need with VC so is there a way to disable TD composer and bring back the frontend use of VC ?
Hi,
The latest changes to the theme and composer have increased the options and possibilities of what can be achieved with them. What latest changes have disappointed you exactly? Most of the additions are optional, you could simply not use them if they are not required for you.
Indeed the tagDiv composer is the main page builder at the moment. It will be integrated further with the theme. Some theme options may only be used with it active. The theme can still be used with Visual composer, this is still provided in the package and updated along theme updates.
The frontend of Visual composer has always been disabled in the theme. This was done because there could be problems using it with our blocks and grids. If you want to remove the function that disables the frontend in Visual composer check this topic

But note that this is highly not recommended.
The tagDiv composer can be disabled if you do not use it. You can use Visual composer further.
Thank you!
Thanks for your answer.
I love to work with your theme, it the absolute best I found in years and I assume I’ll have to do with both tagDiv and Visual composers until you make yours available on posts.
I have a question – when I go to disable tagDiv composer so I can actually use Visual Composer, elements from the homepage no longer work. Do you have a solution?
@oneprimalscream Default theme elements like blocks and grids work with both composers. But if you switch composers it is recommended to rebuild the pages with the page builder you want to use, to ensure that there will be no problem.
If you could provide some more details about what exactly is happening, it would be helpful.
