hi,
if we describe others times how to make custom blocks what don’t you use that info to create your desired block?
after talking with my colleagues seems that the simple way to make a black is to copy an existing block, change his name (not only of the file, but also in the file : http://screencast.com/t/jcst0tJi), then take a look at the bottom of the file, the last line register the block in the Visual composer : http://screencast.com/t/a6KjxMIz
also be sure to add your new module here: http://screencast.com/t/uUOKHHJq5Ixk
also take a look at the Visual composer documentation maybe you will find it useful:

hope this help
Thanks for you message.

Version 3.5 of the theme fixed some of the wp-bakery issues, btw.
Hi, I’m having several issues with the theme. My site is http://diariojudio.com
1.- In some pages I’m having a php error that says:
Fatal error: ob_start() [ref.outcontrol]: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in /home/forojudi/public_html/diario/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/wpbakery/js_composer/composer/lib/shortcodes.php on line 119
Example pages:
http://diariojudio.com/januca/
http://diariojudio.com/bosques
This happen when I insert content with visual composer. As soon as I add a single row, the page breaks. With the editor window blank or other content not from the composer the pages work well.
2. Front page slider does not rotate regardless setting a rotation time.
3. Categories menu won’t show up in blocks.
4. Megamenu layout broken. Categories show up above the grid instead of to the left.
See http://diariojudio.com/screen-megamenu.png
5. backstretch background “jitters” in IE and some mobile devices.
PS: I am using Version 3.2 of the theme with 3.8 in WP and PHP 5.3
I can provide both, FTP access and WP admin access in case you need to see or test something.
Be sure you’re only uploading the main theme folder “Newspaper” and not the big folder with all the docs and help/how-to.
You should look inside the folder you’re uploading to
/wp-content/themes/
to make sure it has the style.css in there, which would be good indicator it’s the wrong folder.
The “Newspaper” theme folder is the one which has the folders bbpress, images, includes, js, less_files, parts, translation, wp-admin, wpbakery, as well as about 35 loose files, including style.css and 404.php, etc.
Visual Composer has an add on plugin called Templatera that allows you to manage and edit templates used with Visual Composer. I bought this add on recently, but discovered that it is not fully compatible with Newspaper.
The add on does work. Albeit the Visual Composer editor does not show up in Templatera’s editor. Just the normal WordPress editor.
When I made a support request with the developer of Templatera, they said that the incompatibility is due to the theme not using the new method to integrate Visual Composer.
They suggested to contact the theme developer and ask to have Visual Composer be integrated using the new method outlined here: http://kb.wpbakery.com/index.php?title=Visual_Composer_Theme_Integration
Is this something can be done with a future update of Newspaper?
hi,
the Visual Composer is fully integrated in our theme.
please do not update the Visual Composer, you will brake your site.
here is where some Visual Composer option are removed : http://screencast.com/t/wjw3WF5jR
comment ( using // before the lines) to add more option to your visual composer.
Thanks for you message.

Yes, I too would like this updated! The Visual Composer is great, and WP Bakery seems to always update and add new items, could we also get the VC updated to the latest one??
I would like to use addons for Visual Composer.
Unfortunately the theme version seems to be completely outdated.
“Ultimate Visual Composer Addons” for example requires v3.7.2 which was released at 8.12.2013.
Please consider updating the Visual Composer or provide a way to turn it off in Newspaper so that i can activate the pure plugin.
Thank you!
Hi!
I’m testing your theme. After I installed your theme on my web server, I imported your sample data at your theme option. It was really easy and cool.
I found “WPBakery Visual Composer Settings” at my setting page. But Visual Composer Plugin wea not installed by default.
And I wondered how to create a frontpage slider. So I looked up your documentation material
here.
It seems you’re using Visual Composer Plugin to make frontpage slider.
However, as you said here, “We fully integrated the visual composer in our theme, so we did not used as a plugin. Unfortunately to add new elements in our version of you need to modify the code.”
I was confused what it means exactly.
1. Does it mean I can make frontpage slider without the Visual Composer Plugin ?
Or Your theme is so made that only installation of Visual Composer plugin is enough to work with your theme ? So Do I have only to buy premium “Visual Composer” and install it on my server ?
I’m not familiar with your theme yet.
Please help me.
Thanks A Lot in Advance.
There’s a spanish translation for the elements in visual composer, however it doesn’t seem to work. Elements still appear in english.
Newspaper/wpbakery/js_composer/locale/js_composer-es_ES.po
1. shouldn’t it load the translation domain somewhere?
what should I do?
2. I separately bought visual composer, is it possible to update it (since the downloaded version loads language fine)
Seems like you havent updated integrated Visual Composer since the initial release of Newspaper. Will you refresh the packed by version with Newspaper v2.0 or arent you planning to do it at all?
I would like to use the Visual Composer Addon Templatera. Will it work with Newspaper out of the box?
