My preview texts shows all the content of the post like the screenshot1 below.
I want to setup the number of the preview texts but I can’t find any tutorial that can help me.
It seems that I can’t set it up from block setting.
The ideal preview texts should look like the screenshot2 which only shows a little content from the post.

Hello Alin
Happy New Year!
Thanks for your help!I already solve this problem.
Now I face another new challenge.
I have made my customized sidebar in the “Widget”page ,but after I drag widgets into the sidebar, they did not show up at the front-end. Only the [tagDiv]type widgets can show on the front-end page.
screenshot-“Widget”page, I add a Facebook like box in “Sherlock”sidebar.
screenshot-“Post”page, I choose the “Sherlock” sidebar I created.
screenshot-“Post”‘s preview page, there is no Facebook like box below the”block15”
Please help me solve this.
Hello,
Please try the facebook like box on any other sidebar to see if the problem is not from the plugin itself. Jetpack is tested to work with our theme but not all options are tested. You can also try other widgets in your custom sidebar and see if they get displayed. If only the jetpack option is not working then you need to find another sharing plugin. You can also try to disable all plugins except visual composer and clear cache to rule out a plugin conflict that interferes with the sidebar.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hello
Thanks for replying, I will try other widget and report the result to you.
Can I ask a SEO question?
Now I have a domain “http://www.blackcoffeeseries.com/” which is hosted by GoDaddy and used on Google Blogger,
and I want to switch from Blogger to WordPress without losing rank.(and still using the domain”http://www.blackcoffeeseries.com/”)
I am going to follow the steps in this post:http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-switch-from-blogger-to-wordpress-without-losing-google-rankings/
But since the example in the post has different domain names on old blogger and new WP websites, I am not quite sure that this method will also work for me.
The Tech Support from Bluehost said, the only thing I need to do is to transfer the domain name from GoDaddy to Bluehost after my new website is done.
I need to double check the switching method because this blog is very very important to me.
I appreciate your valuable time.
Thank you!
Hello,
Well if Bluehost said it can be done then simply follow their instructions to move the domain over to Bluehost. You need to set up your wp on the new host and start importing the blogger content to WP (that will be the more tricky part as you will need to recreate quite a bit of your layouts). Rankings will not be affected as WP allows you to keep the same URL’s.
You can find some resources to help you with this task:

I hope this helps.
Best of luck on your project!
Hello Bogdan
Thanks for your help, I will try these methods recently.
Besides, I found some bugs in block settings and have few questions to ask.
1.The Big Grid Slide does not have “slide” function, it only has grids.
2.In some circumstances, the “Big Slide” might collapse. In my case, I set the filter with “all category” and “latest”, but it does not sort articles with right timeline.
3.Where could I edit the “Related Articles” function? I need to edit the block title text.
4.I am confused by the instruction of “multiple filter” function in block setting. As the screenshot shows, I want to filter by “Netflix” and “Daredevil” categories, but after I type these categories into column, the front-end can’t really catch the right articles. Am I using the wrong way to set up?
5.There is a crash in “category” page. The third block in the left of screenshot should not appear, and it even shows some mysterious code.
Hello Castle Yen,
1), 2) I have tested on my side and this kind of Visual Composer element, Big Grid Slide, seems to work as expected on mobile devices. Please try to check it on our demo version, here -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-slide/ Please ensure that issue do not come from any untested plugins wich can cause some js.errors in our theme. Please try to disable all the active plugins, except Visual Composer, clear all cache and instal only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
3)If you want to change the name of the “Related Articles” field, you can to do it from Theme panel->Translations->Translations, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/UDYXLI88r and the code of this feature you should find in td_block_related_posts.php -> http://screencast.com/t/12jOZHSYSIn
4)If you want to use Multiple Categories filter, you have to add your Category ID and not Category name as I can see in your screenshot. The category ID you can find like this -> http://screencast.com/t/8TrG0KdBfT -> http://screencast.com/t/0FOTgG09
5)This is a known issue with modules that use the wp default thumbnail and your post does not have a featured image. Please use this method to fix it: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/search-error-message-thumbnail-is-not-set/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
