Is there a specific link on your side where we can download “plugins only” just like we can download older versions of theme through a specific link that you guys share on this forum? I would like to download plugins that come with the theme i.e WP Bakery Page Builder etc without having to download full theme package?
Hi,
The mobile version is look like that because you have the mobile theme plugin that provide you a better speed then responsive version of theme, but in order to achieve that speed you’ll need to create a new content for pages because in the most of cases those were made with builders ( tagDiv Composer, WPBakery ) and you need to use only the mobile editor ( you need to set the content for pages in mobile editor and this content will be display on mobile theme)

Mobile Theme: Automatic Optimization for Mobile with Newspaper Theme -> https://tagdiv.com/mobile-theme-automatic-optimization-for-mobile-newspaper-theme/
Also for the 3 blocks, you’ll need to have set same feature posts (that have set feature category) -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/featured-posts-2/ -> https://www.screencast.com/t/QsJ6ppY4
Or you can use the responsive version of the theme.
If you want to optimize the speed of your website please check this topic -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/website-load-speed/
Thank you!
Hi,
In the theme package there are 2 page builders, the tagDiv composer and the WPBakery builder. Quite a while back the theme provided only WPBakery, but we developed the tagDiv composer as our own builder. Now the composer is considered the main builder of the theme, and it has to be active at all times. It is also the only composer that can be used with the cloud library plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
We recommend to use the tagDiv composer, but you can activate and use WPBakery as well if needed. Just remember to not edit pages built with the composer, with WPBakery, or the other way around.
Here are some simple guides if you want to check them out

Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,
We provide updates for WPBakery when the theme is updated
– https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/213762463-Bundled-Plugins
So the next theme version will contain the latest version of the plugin at the time.
Currently there are some issues with WPBakery 6.0.3 if used with the 9.7.3 theme version, we are investigating these as we speak so we can fix them for the next theme update.
For the time being please keep using WPBakery 6.0.2 which works fine with the current theme. Let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks
I am really confused about what is going on with the WPBAKERY Visual Composer Plugin update. I have to keep the plugins on my websites up to date for security purposes and I see that people are having issues with the WPBAKERY Visual Composer Plugin update to 6.0.3. Have you provided an update that works as we are not switching to TAGDIV on our very large, 3000 to 6000 page websites? Please advise.
Hi,
So the tagDiv composer is active. There is something else you can check. In the WPBakery settings->role manager – http://prntscr.com/od1tva check if the setting is set to all
– http://prntscr.com/od1uf5 for administrator. Or set the setting to custom and select all then hit save – http://prntscr.com/od1uye – http://prntscr.com/od1v6a
If the problem remains, we could take a closer look at it. Please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login. Include a link to this topic in the email.
Thanks
Hi.
It was WPBakery Page Builder plugin conflict. I disabled the plugin and the template works now.
Thanks.
I understand tagDiv Composer is now the theme editor, but I have 26 very complex pages using WPBakery that came with the theme, that’s cool, I like the live interface much cooler, you have now widgetised sidebar though whicch you may want to add.
FYI…I have another site http://www.stkildawritersweek.com that was still unupdated versions of many plugins, I tested them all with the WPB editor as I updated them and all was cool until I also updated the WordPress to 5.2.2
Then I lost WPB composer functions, so I downloaded and activated TagDiv Composer to see what was happening, I can no longer develop my site

Thanks Calin.
Well I’m not using WPBakery.
And yes I clear all cache every time.
So still the same issue. Any idea how to solve that ?
Hi,
Replacing the tdc_map.php should remove the condition for the elements that are not show in TagDiv Composer if you are using the WPBakery, please make sure that you’ve clear all cache after you make those changes.
Also if you have the child theme activate the there are some settings that will not apply, those will be set on default.
If there is still a problem, you can send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide admin login, as well as cPanel or FTP if possible. We will take a look. Include a link to this topic in the email.
Thank you!
Hi Calin, thanks for your response (I’ve already read it in another thread). But I didn’t fully understand it.
Do you mean that one solution is I have to totally desactivate WPBakery. Gasp! I mean some of my page’s contents are build with WPBakery, some not! I try to take the best of each other.
The other solution would be a bit techy and could be, I assumed, nulled in a next Newspaper update. No ? And well… how do I get “tdc_map.php from the previous version of Newspaper theme”?
I can fully understand that developping a theme is terribly complex… but on the user side… seing a part of our site disappear when upgrading it (without any warning, I’m affraid… or I missed it)… is a bit harsh…
We pulled the WPBakery file off the ThemeForest Newspaper download – I have no idea where to find an older version. Can you provide?
Hi @isagachie,
If you are using the last version of the Newspaper theme ( v9.7.3 ) there was implement some new conditions for a better compatibility with WPBakery, therefore, some elements will not be available in the tagDiv composer. This was made to prevent issues with the respective elements. The single image, widgets element, raw html… are some of them.
If you want to still have theme you need to deactivate the WPBakery plugin or replace the tdc_map.php from wp-content>plugins>td-composer>includes>tdc_map.php withe tdc_map.php from the previous version of Newspaper theme.
Thank you!
Hi,
The blocks came’s from the tagDiv Composer.
Please check this article Updating the Core of the tagDiv Themes for Envato WordPress Requirements, also we recommend to us the tagDiv Composer instead of WPBAKERY.
Thank you!
hi, i have installed visual composer in my website but when i try to add a block tre are only 3 kinds of elements: row, text and single image… could you please help?
Hi,
That page seems to be built with WPBakery from what I can see. I have seen the issue in a few other cases, it happens after updating the WPBakery plugin to 6.0.3.
We recommend to not update WPBakery when using a premium version (purchased plugin) and use the currently included version in the theme package – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
The current version of WPBakery included in the theme package is 6.0.2, this should work fine. So if possible revert to 6.0.2 and there should be no problem.
Thanks
Hi,
That is possible if needed, just don’t use both of them on the same page.
I should note that some elements won’t be available in the composer when WPBakery is active. Elements such as the single image, column text, widget sidebar and a few others. This was intended as a way to avoid conflicts between the two composers, but it may change in future updates if a different solution is found.
Please let us know if you have more questions.
Thanks
Hi,
thank you for the explanation. i have a little more question, can we use both of tagdiv composer and WPBakery composer after the update?
turning off WPBakery did the think, thanks!
Hi,
It could happen if WPBakery is also active. It will also affect the containers used by the tagDiv composer. Are you using WPBakery as well? Would it be possible to deactivate it or it’s required for you that is is active? Let me know.
Thanks
Thanks Calin. I deactivated WPBakery and can see the Separator shortcode now. All set.
