Hi,
From what I can see the plugin you mention is a page builder. You should try and use one of the two page builders provided with the theme. Either WPBakery page builder (Visual composer) or the tagDiv composer (this front-end page builder is built specially for the theme).
These are tested and work properly with the theme. Please note that we will considerably improve the features and options offered by the tagDiv composer in the next theme updates.
Thanks
I have exactly the same problem for the theme. Have made a fresh install but this does not help. the problem has become more acute since i have switched to tag dive composer instead of visual bakery
You have the free ‘bundled’ version which does not need ‘activation’ with WP Bakery. You do not have a paid license with WP Bakery, so it cannot be ‘activated’ for WP support (it can be activated on the plugin page to be used with the included bundled templates/settings compatible with theme; you don’t get ‘bonus extras’ offered by paid users of the WP Bakery plugin!) — see the help info here in the forum and the links provided in prior reply
( I don’t work here; just long time user )
I have installed the Visual Composer plugin but when installing it becomes WPBakery Page Building and asks me to buy it for activation, when in the store the subject is informed that it is free, how can I activate it?
Hello, I updated to latest version of Newspaper 8.1.2 and I updated WPBakery Page Builder to version Version 5.4.2. But now all my pages are aligned left and not centered which I originally had them.
When I edit the page using Page Builder it looks normal. I use the 1/4 + 1.2 + 1/4 column for all my pages.
But for some reason 1/1 and 2/3+1/3 and 1/3+1/3+1/3 are always highlighted in blue and no matter which one I choose, these 3 are always highlighted blue… same thing when I create a new page to test. I will not change.
When I hover over the different alignment options they turn an off white color and I can pick another column alignment and it’s highlighted with the off white color, but it does not change anything.. These other 3 remain blue…
Also, do I need to delete Tagdiv Composer? It’s listed now next to Classic Mode.. I can’t remember seeing it there before…
I was testing the Newspaper theme on my personal server, now i have migrate to final server and only 2 plugins was installed, the WPBakery Visual Composer now have no license and I cant save when use the TD Composer.
How can i solve this?
Hello,
It seems you are installing both td-composer and js_composer. They are 2 very different plugins. The td_composer is the tagdiv composer and js-composer is visual composer by wpbakery
Please do not use both at the same time. Only install 1 or the other.
If the issue is still present please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin and ftp access so we can login and investigate.
Thank you!
We are using WPBakery Page Builder to load our post categories. But we are having some difficults in loading page times. Example: https://fotospublicas.com/editoria/cotidiano/ . What can we do to improve page loading times?
Let me try to explain. It’s confusing from the standpoint of me being new to the theme and WordPress for the most part. I’m trying to determine why there are multiple options for page creation. It’s kind of like opening MS Office and having 2 word processing options. That’s not a perfect comparison. I understand WordPress is more modular but that’s kind of where I’m coming from. I’m trying to understand the pro’s and con’s of each and just how nicely they play together.
Here are my specific questions:
WPBakery Page Builder is a third party page builder that came with the theme but now you guys are creating your own. Is that correct?
The WPBakery Page Builder and TD Composer are only for pages, and not posts, correct?
Can I build a page and edit it with another as long as I’m not doing the edits simultaneously with both?
Which do you use for pages?
Which “composer” do you use for posts?

Thank you kindly for your time.
Hello Ryansmccain,
Why does it seem to be random? Please keep in mind that our theme comes bundled with this integrated plugin as Visual Composer which is made by WPBakery Page Builder and which the core file is named js_composer.zip. This kind of popular plugin has been implemented in our theme which helps you to create your pages more easily.
More recently, it was introduced our own page builder which is named TD Composer. So, that page builder is at the beginning and also, it is in a continuous development. You will not found all the elements which Visual Composer has. From now on, this plugin will be improved with some features which have to be exclusively for this builder. You can use our page builder in default WordPress editor but you should know the shortcodes generated by this plugin. You should use the FrontEnd editor for this page builder, like this -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial-2/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
That’s what I’ve been reading. The plugin I installed is called WPBakery Page Builder. There is no mention of js_composer.zip on that page. I’m confused to why WPBakery Page Builder is a plugin that comes with the theme. It seems random.
My other question is if I move to a new theme and have used tagDiv composer for all of my pages, will there now be issues editing them in the default WordPress editor?
Thanks
I’m reading through the initial documentation. It says this:
Step 1 – Install both the Visual Composer and tagDiv Composer plugins
I see js_composer.zip and td_composer.zip in the theme plugin directory. I’m assuming td_composer.zip is the the tagDiv composer, correct? If so, what is the Visual Composer?
Also, I installed the js_composer.zip plugin and it says it’s “WPBakery Page Builder.” My guess is that’s a depreciated version that is there for legacy purposes? Is that correct?
Also, am I reading it correctly that I will have to go back and edit any posts that I’ve already created? If so, is there a bulk way to do this? I
Hi, thanks but this doesn’t work, I don’t see that option. We have our home page built with the WPBakery page builder, and that option is not there.
Is there a default I can edit to remove that text?
I can not update it “WPBakery Page Builder”.
today I noticed that it is 2 different plugin. the WPBakery Page Builder I bought it. do I need something? or disable it?
There is a problem with the new version of WPBakery Visual Composer 5.4.2. We have version 8.1 of the theme installed
You don’t need a license for the plugin; it is the ‘bundled version,’ as noted in the docs — see link right side of this page.
Plugin works just fine once you activate it from the ‘plugins’ panel.
You don’t need to ‘activate’ it with WP Bakery — as you do not have a support license with WPB. Just ignore the nag screen 🙂
how to update the WPBakery Visual Composer plugin version 5.2.1 a news version
I have been having a problem updating my newspaper theme . I have 8.0 tring to update to 8.1. When I apply the update it takes all the single images in visual composer and resizes them way to big. This happens in staging to I dont ever copy staging to live.

Greetings,

Please refer to

Also we can not update WP Bakery for some time now, how do we proceed?
Sincerely
Ivan form PolePosition
Update: resolved this by deactivating the mobile plugin, and then using visual composer (wp bakery) I hid the items I didn’t want on mobile devices.
However, I’m getting a double menu situation right now, and I’m not sure why. the hamburger menu icon is there but then there’s another one below it.
My older posts too.
I found some helpful tips:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Then, i went to hosting folder: /wp-content/themes/Newspaper -> delete this and upload Nespaper 8.1.
I also deactivate and delete WPBakery Visual Composer plugin. And install from Newspaper-tf/plugins/js_composer.zip.
But nothing is changed. I upload Newspaper 7.8 again 😀
Now i drink cup of coffee and keep finding..
Hello,
I need to use both tagDiv and WPBakery on my site. On one hand, tagDiv Composer is perfect for the homepage, on the other hand I need WPBakery for the articles.
The problem is that when both composers are active, the layout of the articles created with WPBakery is completely messed up. Apparently the only layout option that works is the one with 3 columns. It is not a CSS problem, the width classes are missing from the column div (ex: td-pb-span3 for 4 columns)
Is there any solution to use both of the composers but on different pages?
Thank you
Thanks! That solved the issue.
Also got this response from Visual Composer about this:
“The issue is because theme author has modified our default column classes using: https://wpbakery.atlassian.net/wiki/display/VC/Change+CSS+Class+Names+in+Output
You can get in touch with him and get rid of the above code to get it back. Kindly check.”
Anyway – it seems to be solved now.
I just upgraded to newspaper 8. I noticed that a ton of stuff on my website is no longer formatted correctly. I went through and fixed everything. I see that there is now a tagdiv composer. Both the tagdiv composer and the WPBakery Visual composer are running.
I am assuming I don’t need both. If I deactivate one, will it mess up the formatting on my website again?
I am having a problem with the Tagdiv editor and I am assuming if I deactivate WPBakery, it will work again?
