I purchased the Newspaper theme last night. The key was the magazine style homepage.
Whenever I create a homepage everything seems to be working -I can add blocks and update the settings – but when I go to update the page it simply wipes all my changes from the visual composer. And I am welcomed to Blank Page – I have no content yet!
I can also not preview any of the changes.
All I have managed to get to appear on my homepage is a latest articles list.
I also haven’t been able to get the big slider to work.
My site has existing content (600 posts).
I have deleted the WPBakery plugin and reinstalled from the provided files. I have deactivated all my other plugins and even deleted some redundant ones. Still no luck.
I’m at a loss. Without a magazine style homepage the theme is lovely, but redundant to me. I’m the first to admit that I’m new to wordpress, so I really hope its something I’m doing that I just can’t see through.
Any suggestions?
Hi,
When you edit the page that you have created your settings are saved? I mean if you can see all elements/blocks added with Visual Composer on the page: http://screencast.com/t/OmK1eCli
Also please make sure that your posts have categories as the blocks filter posts by category/categories.
Follow also our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/ and provide your site URL.
Let me know!
Thanks!
Hi Alin,
I solved the problem. A case of PEBKAC. My site has been running so slow and I got excited with the bulk deactivation of plugin’s – I missed some. Once I disabled ALL of them the Visual Composer worked beautifully.
So far I’ve activated some of the more important plugins and haven’t located the problem plugin yet. Will post back here when I work out which it is…
Thanks for you response/help.
Caroline
