Hi,
I’m using Newspaper 4 with block 2, but I think after I just updated Visual Composer Plugin as per directions of Envato, the blocks have the wrong size now.
See http://rekkerd.org
There are 4 blocks that should line out wide but now they are small.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Ronnie
It looks like the block itself is alright, but it gets resized because it doesn’t fit in the columns.
When I mess around with the css in inspector a bit I can get it fit by setting .column_container .span6 width to 325px instead of 46.5714%, but I don’t recall changing any width sizes of the blocks so I have no clue why all of a sudden the blocks don’t scale properly…
Since I don’t want my site to look “bad”, I have implemented a temp fix by editing
includes/shortcodes/td_block_2.php
I found that when I would change the span6 div for this block to span 12 the layout would be right, so I commented out some lines in the td_block_2.php so that no span6 div would be generated. See screenshot http://rekkerd.org/sandbox/rekkerd_td_block_2.png
For the record, here the screenshot of what the site looks like without the fix http://rekkerd.org/sandbox/rekkerd_no_fix.jpg and with the fix http://rekkerd.org/sandbox/rekkerd_fix.jpg
The fixed layout is exactly how it used to be, so I have no clue what happened…
Thanks for any insight in advance!
You should likely install the latest patched version of VC included with the theme, from the ‘all files’ download, plugins folder; vs the un-bundled version from Envato.
Thanks Chris, but no difference unfortunately.
Hello ronnie,
The latest version of visual composer was not tested with version 4 of our theme (it did not exist back then). If you want to use the latest version of visual composer, you have to update your theme to the latest version (6.5.1) as well. And only install the visual composer plugin that comes with the theme.
With newspaper 4 please use the plugin version that comes with your theme files.
For updating the theme from version 4 to 6 please check this topic here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/update-to-6-5-from-4-6/
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
