Common issues with loading elements:
a) not enough memory allocated to WP (256M or higher recommended)
b) timeout and process run time too low for php (mine is 2000 for both)
c) mod-security running blocking elements in WP
d) using old version of php (5.4 not recommended; 5.6 recommended)
e) general permisssions issue due to WP being installed by the hosting panel and partially “owned” by root, apache, and not by ftpuser
f) funky issue with CDN setup
g) poor optimization plugin being used to minify or compress elements of code on the fly, breaking capability
h) cURL and other server elements not working
i) robots.txt blocking access to parts of WP
j) custom WP install not setup right, renaming paths and folders
k) mis-match of https and http, www and non-www site structure
These are most often the “reasons” why 20,000 people can do something and 200 cannot.
Yes.. I did notice other posts where you wrote that.. if you noticed my comment I from that suspect it’s your server that might have some problem from time to time. As nothing just starts working all by itself like magic.. correct?
Did I say I expected you to fix anything ? I only expect pointers, input, .. look at this that… check config X setting Y… etc. And anything you could see logging into the site I could provide as info if you just bothered to ask.. this really bad way of “helping” users ONLY appear in the wordpress community. Really bad way.. not only is it a stupid idea giving away the “keys to the house” sending them miles across the internet. By fixing things for your clients they don’t learn how to fix it themself.
I have the same problem on TWO completely different servers… on clean wp install and various enviroments.. used different clients… checked for issues with popup blocker +++ well I’ll translate manually and NOT share with you the new translations.
Thanks for “all the help”.
I have a couple of issues that need support:
1. How do I remove the comments counter that appears like an icon on all blocks and modules.
2. How do I custom order the list of sub-categories instead of the alphabetical order.
3. Instead of the 7 days post sorting, how do I list the most popular posts within the last 14 days instead of 7 days?
4.
“To mark a post as featured just include it in the Featured category. This Featured category is created by default, so you will have it in the category list.”
That’s what the documentation says but it seems I may have renamed or deleted the Featured category mistakenly, how do I restore it to enable me mark particular posts as featured?
5. Lastly, I have lists of articles displayed in blocks on the Frontpage, but strangely, a comments box appears at the bottom of my frontpage, how do I disable that?
Thanks in advance.
Please how do I locate the td_block_mega_menu.php file?
If just the text is what you are after, you can try this css code:
.vc_btn3-container.vc_btn3-center .vc_btn3-block.vc_btn3-size-lg{
font-size:30px!important;
}
I have tested the button on one of my posts but the cart icon appeared without problems on posts also, thre could be something affecting the fonts on your posts. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Let us know how it goes.

If you want to use other ad networks (non AdSense ads) with our ad system, you just have to paste the code in the ad box.
Thanks Bogdan!
I actually managed to change it in Modules and Block – Article title > Module 15.
All is done now!
Thanks for your tremendous help Bogdan! Great job!!! You make a world a better place. 🙂
Cheers!
Hello vipe,
Please notice that if you want to disable the post date for posts and modules/blocks you can do it from Theme panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/63f0XF0sPlnu -> http://screencast.com/t/aj9x3l7qOQ If your theme panel does not save your settings, please check your system status and increase it according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hello Alex,
Unfortunately our theme blocks do not have any such options. You can only place the post id;s in the block but you cannot select which post will be in which position in the block. This is done using the sorting options for posts. For example I only filter 4 posts but change the sorting from latest to oldest: http://screencast.com/t/mhIEC589iMd then the oldest post will be first. you cannot change their position live and after a couple of seconds as you want it. The blocks do not have any such functionality.
Thank you!
Hello,
The back to top was disabled for mobile but you can enable it using this custom css:
@media (max-width: 767px){
.td-scroll-up {
display: block;
}}
Add the code in the theme panel->custom css box.
Thank you!
Well our theme colors will not affect all elements unfortunately. The page text refers to a text added on a page that is not inside a block or visual composer element. Any element that is created using visual composer. can only be changed with css or from the block settings (headers and hover colors)
You can easily create your about me page without using visual composer, and then the color sin the theme panel will affect your page.
Thank you!
Hello,
You can simply add a new block in visual composer above the big grid and filter only 1 post in it using the post ID filter. Our blocks will ignore sticky posts as they will break the layout of the block, but you can create a new block and have only 1 post added to it.
Please use this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
Thank you!
Hello renzosm,
Unfortunately, I do not exactly understand what you want to achieve. Please look at this -> http://screencast.com/t/xGelLxTDz There you will see your Block 6 and the Block 6 from our demo as should look and I did not saw any differences between them. Please provide some information and details about what you want to achieve. Sorry for my bad understanding!
Thanks for the message!
Hello renzosm,
Unfortunately, our theme does not have any block which displays in full-width only 2 columns, sorry! All of our blocks can be found here -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/ and from there you can change which you want.
So, if you want to display more levels in our theme which involve some additional customizations and if you are not aware of the steps which are needed to take in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide custom work at the moment, sorry!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I checked that and its working fine after deactivate all plugins, may b any plugin is conflicting.
I have another query regarding VC Post Grids. Its loading slow when we open or refresh the page. Blocks are loading fast. I want to use VC Post Grids to show posts, is there any way to make VC Post Grids fast? I am not using any animation.
Thanks,
Avtar
Hello tech.mercato,
If you want to filter your Big Grid Slide to show only the Featured posts, you should check the Block Settings and there you should select the Featured category, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/yCBe8pwD and then the Block will display only the posts from this category. Also, notice that you can set the time of autoplay slider, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/Gwb2GZNUgZd
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hello John,
I guess that you are referring to the Don’t Miss block, right? So, please notice that all the settings for our Blocks can be found in Block Settings section for each Visual Composer Block. So, if you want that your block to display only the posts from the certain category you should set it properly from the panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/2o4GAglgKVp For more information about these settings, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Hope this helps!

Hi, I build my site in visual composer and chose BLOCK 6 for the main news. for some reason its not doing the 2 columns images with news etc, take a look at the site

Hey!
as one of the original “make me a shim!” proponents back in the day, I know what you mean.
So – you might try the “successor” to that shim which is the new TagDiv Composer plugin, which can replace VC, and has all the blocks and more that the shim supported. 🙂
So you can build stuff with it, without using VC then switching on the shim. Now, just use the TD Composer and ditch VC and the ooooooold (2014?) shim.
Basically the shim is no longer supported, as far as I know. The TD Composer is the way to go. See the sticky post top of forum.
I’m using it on all our sites now. 🙂
Try it ! 🙂
Friends, I recently upgraded to version 7.5 of Newsapper. After this, I noticed that the blocks of the home were completely misaligned, evidencing a conflict with the Shim Plugin.
The Shim plugin is very useful for us because it solved the problems of server overload, besides making the site much faster in loading.
I wish there was an update of the Shim plugin to resolve this incompatibility.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
The default sort order on loops is by latest, but you could alter the query – https://codex.wordpress.org/Alphabetizing_Posts using the theme’s sort order options for blocks – http://screencast.com/t/6H11m6iHz For example you could try this code in functions.php file – http://screencast.com/t/z1rPlhUl – http://pastebin.com/1C9t7PUf
Hope this helps!
Hey Catalin,
I figured I’d ask the question in this topics, because it relates. I did what you said and it worked, only the background color of the element is not copied. Any idea why? It is mentioned in the code, so I guess it should work.
This is the code, the yellow background doesn’t display:
[vc_cta h2="Help us grow our network of kids correspondents" h4="Let childrens voices be heared" txt_align="center" add_button="bottom" btn_title="Donate" btn_color="primary" btn_size="lg" btn_align="center" btn_link="url:http%3A%2F%2Fwww.theyouth.org%2Fdonate|title:Donate||" btn_button_block="true" btn_custom_onclick="true" css=".vc_custom_1479844170836{background-color: #ffee00 !important;}"][/vc_cta]
Hi,
Please check this using another instagram id and see if you get the same error. If the issue persist even if you change the ID, then I suspect that you have a security module on your server that blocks this, so I suggest to ask also your host about this.
If you want you can send an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin access so we can take a closer look. Also paste a link to this topic so we can identify you.
Thanks!
Hi,
I recevied a notification from AdSense and I think is related to the Ad titles that were missing. The problem is that when I set the titles at the Theme Panel, the titles doesn’t appear. All others Ad blocks work fine (widgets and visual composer).
I’m using the Black version.
Tks
