- NewspaperHow to update the WPBakery Page Builder plugin
- NewspapertagDiv Composer Tutorial
- NewspaperWhat’s Included in the Newspaper Theme Package
I just completed the update,
I followed method 1 here:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/
Then I updated the Visual Composer by doing this:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
And everything seems fine.
Is it possible to use WPBakery on posts. It is available on pages, and I use it all the time. But I would also like to use it on posts.
I want to put an image block on post pages above the featured image and cannot find a way to do this within the admin dashboard. If we can’t do it within WPBakery on a post-by-post basis, it would be great if there were an option within the theme panel that allowed us to do it.
See the photo and blue bar with text on my homepage at http://www.fiercedad.com. That’s the type of content that I would like to add above the featured image on all posts.
Hi,
Like I said this class is not right there – http://screencast.com/t/Nv7cWrzY1f it must be like this – http://screencast.com/t/iFmalqhqc
Please make sure that you update Visual Composer as I checked your site and you use this version: http://screencast.com/t/CbSbRbV45eS
Use this guide to update: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
You can try also to follow Christopher’s topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-guide-to-moving-from-newspaper-to-newsmag/
Thanks!
Hi,
You don’t need to update it we provide the licensed plugin within theme files and each time we update the theme we also include the updated version of the VC plugin tested to work with the theme so ignore the update notice and wait until we release the next update in which we will include the updated version of the plugin.
You can find more info here:

Thanks
Hi,
Please make a backup of your current theme installation, so you can revert in case something goes wrong. Also follow our guide to update your theme, use FTP method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ and update the plugins that come with the theme files from the /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Normally the posts/pages, styling modifications you’ve set in the Theme Panel – will not be effected by updating your theme, only custom modifications to the theme’s files will be overwritten.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that is not a confusion between Newsmag ver 1.7 and Newspaper ver 4.6.2.
If you need to update your Newspaper theme please make a backup of your current theme installation so you can revert in case of something goes wrong. Please follow this guide to update using FTP – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-theme/ and upload also the plugins that come with the theme files from the /pluginss folder – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
If you have custom modifications to the theme files you will need to make those again in new theme files. You will have to upload the theme like a new theme, you will have to delete your current theme folder(after you make the backup).
You can also follow this topic, it may help like, already Christopher suggested: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-guide-to-moving-from-newspaper-to-newsmag/
Thanks!
Hi,
You can find Social Counter in /plugins from theme files that you download from themeforest and you can update it like the Visual Composer is updated: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Hope this helps!
Hi,
I also tested this using the latest theme version and did not found any issues. Please make sure that you also use the latest theme version(4.6.2) and update the plugins that come with the theme files.
Use this guide if you need to update(FTP method): https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ and you can fins theme’s plugins in the /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Also you can try this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active, empty cache and check if you still have this issue.
Thanks!
When I click in the backend editor on the character of “Visuel Composer,” opens the website “http://vc.wpbakery.com/?utm_campaign=VCplugin_header&utm_source=vc_user&utm_medium=backend_editor”.
Where can I work in Visuel Composer?
I’m testing on my staging site: http://vbjusa.staging.wpengine.com/ and have updated the theme, deactivated all plugins except wpbakery, and cleared the cache. The issue is still unresolved.
Hi,
Please deactivate all plugins, leave only Visual Composer active, also clear cache and purge your files if you use CDN and check again if you still have this issue. If you don’t have it anymore activate your plugins one by one to see if there is a plugin conflict.
Also please make sure that you use the latest version of the theme(4.6.2) and the plugins that come with the theme files are updated. If you need to update follow this guide, use FTP method – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ also update the plugin that come with theme form /plugins folder – https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Let me know!
Thanks!

Hello
I have a problem with pagination of the newspaper theme. Page 2 and more are white like this :
Pagination in categories is correct and home is correct : http://wlaps.com/
I have update the theme and the WPBakery Visual Composer (in version 4.4.2) and i have disabled all the plugins but error is yet here.
Have you an idea ?
4.4.3 does not list any fixes for vulnerabilities and I’ve not seen any industry warnings on vulnerabilities for 4.4.2
https://wpbakery.atlassian.net/wiki/display/VC/Release+Notes
If you believe 4.4.2 is the flaw, you may want to contact the WP Bakery folks — or put in a support ticket with them if you have identified a flaw and WHY you think the plugin is causing your site to be hacked exclusive from other plugins and code you’re using.
Hi,
I have been hacked 2-3 times in the last 2 months and I am using Newspaper Theme + WP Bakery Visual Composer.
Please UPDATE that plugin because I think you have a huge vulnerability there.
Thanks
Hi,
Please make sure that Visual Composer plugin is activated – http://screencast.com/t/rJFJlvty and also try this without any plugins active leave just Visual Composer plugin active also empty cache. Let me know!
If you need to update Visual Composer plugin please use this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/

Hi,
Please update also the plugins that come with the theme’s files from the /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/

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,
i’m using version 4.3.5. Plugin WPBakery Visual Composer, with thema NewsMag version 1.7,
as latest version 4.4.3 or previous versions of Visual Composer plugin WPBakery, always give 500 error, blocking the site.
What do you pua to understand why it happens ??
I await your response about
https://www.idevice.ro/ installed the latest version, images are not shown, although they are clickable. Deactivating jetpack solves nothing.
BTW, wpbakery generates huge load on servers, and when I say huge, i mean up to 10x.
Hi
the visual composer extension – Easy Table is not working properly with the visual composer provided with the theme, when i contacted the WP Bakery for the issue they said its because of a Js conflict with visual composer.
how can i make the easy table compatible with visual composer?
Hi,
I have checked your site and seems that is missing a class there, so please update your theme to the latest version 1.6 following this guide and use FTP method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-theme/ Also update the plugins that come with the theme’s files from /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Let me know if you still have issues with this after update.
Thanks!
Hi, my wordpress platform calls me update the WPBakery Visual Composer plugin, but when under full topic see plugins and have an older version, as I download the latest?
Hi,
You can update the theme(also if you updated) without any problems. There was a mistake in style.css file where was added 444 version but this is 4.6.2 version of the theme. Sorry for inconvenience!
Also Visual Composer latest version is 4.4.2 and you can find it in /plugins folder from theme files that you downloaded from themeforest: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Thanks!
Hi Guys,
The website was offline several times a day and my Hosting company just sent me this msg: “All the issues on your website are because of the plugin WPBakery Visual Composer which is consuming a lot of CPU in the background regardless of that all the content in most of the time is served from the cache.
I know that this is one of you main plugins and without it your website will not function properly but this plugin is very bad coded and if it can it will consume all the CPU server resources.”
The reason I write is because they actually don’t want to provide me with the hosting if I do not resolve this.
Please advise.
