Our website at TheLatestNews after update to latest Newsmag 2.1 and WordPress 4.2.4 on front page if you scroll down a bit is showing sidebar below the article blocks (sidebar should be on the right side ) and at the end there is also some VC code that shouldn’t be present :

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width="1/1"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

( composer also updated @ Version 4.6.2 ).

Thanks for your help.

Just to add this : Frontpage looked like this before this happened : https://web.archive.org/web/20150619093354/http://www.thelatestnews.com/

Be sure to clear cache, and possibly go and resave your module and sidebar widget.
That has worked for me in the past after update. Might not help here, just a thought.

btw, any interest in syndicating news from our wire service (Send2Press®) ?

You can automatically pull in our news via RSS2 and photos into WordPress to add additional first-class news content not copied from anywhere else.

eg., entertainment news:
https://www.send2press.com/XML/s2p-news25.xml

all news
https://www.send2press.com/XML/s2p-news1.xml

(we have non-https version as well…. )

shoot me a note if you’d like to add our content (free!). 🙂

Chris thanks for your response – what I did was just recreate the homepage from scratch ( via VisualComposer ) and everything is working fine now!

Yeah… I had to go in and just “resave” modules when moving from 1.5 to 1.7 awhile back. Thankfully it’s not terribly hard. IN my case I forgot to turn off mod_pagespeed first, which meant some of the caching was on, and so something didn’t quite carry over during the upgrade. Annoying, but thankfully not something we have to do every day …. 🙂
