Hi,
Sidebars can be set for pages, but in the tagDiv composer. Either split the row and add content directly in the resulting sidebar column
– https://www.screencast.com/t/VTiKJwMDIkr
Or add a widget sidebar element and select from your available sidebars
– https://www.screencast.com/t/waQ0J7GAsh
If the page is not built with the composer, a sidebar can be set in the back-end
– https://www.screencast.com/t/yxGXPxc4ZyH
That would be all there is to it. I believe there was an issue where you cannot set a sidebar in the back-end despite not using the composer for that page. Testing currently with latest version of the theme (9.0.1) that seems to be fixed. I can’t remember if in 8.8.2 which you are using this was fixed.
It would be best to consider to update the theme, then this issue should be fixed. You will be able to create pages with default content and also set a sidebar in the back-end of the page.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks
Hello
I use tagdiv composer and the page remains gray here are the errors of the page since the source

Thanks you
I’ve been unable to work on my pages layout since updating the newspaper theme. I can’t work with the TagDive composer, only WP Bakery Pagebuilder. Pls any help?
hello,
The image you mention is the featured image. please note you are editing a template that is going to be applied to a post. Not a post directly Not like a page. The content you edit will need to accommodate the post content. You will only see the proper result once you apply the template yo a post. The image is a place holder until you apply the template to a post and see the featured image applied. You cannot edit the post itself in the tagdiv composer. Just the template applied to that post.
Thanks
Hi,
Please check if the composer has been updated automatically, there should be a notice message if it’s deactivated after you update.
If it’s deactivated, update the composer first, there should be an update button here

You could design post templates with the composer and cloud library plugin
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-cloud-library-plugin/
Create a post template with a background colors for the rows for example. This will not cause the boxed layout to be forced.
Or with CSS even – https://www.screencast.com/t/YJqVqSgL26q
This code will affect all posts, it can be made more precise if needed
.single article {
background-color: lightgrey;
}
.single article .td-container {
background-color: #fff;
padding-left: 48px;
padding-right: 48px;
}
Hello,
You must edit the page with the tagdiv composer and place elements on that page. Please use this guide to learn how to add or remove elements from pages:

Thank you!
Good day. Many plugins on my site automatically deactivate and I’m unable to activate. The plugins are tagDiv Composer, tagDiv Cloud Library, tagDiv AMP and tagDiv Social Counter. When I click on activate it says: “Plugin activated.”, but the plugins are still inactive.
Hi,
That is perfectly possible. First you can choose an excerpt type (words or letters), then modify the modules needed
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/excerpts-introduction/
There are options for titles length and excerpts length. The options in the theme panel are global, the composer also has settings for each module in a block (settings that will affect only that block)
– https://www.screencast.com/t/nvtIj4TG
So you can limit the title and excerpt lengths for the modules you want. That will make the modules even and provide a better general look.
Thanks
It seems as though my connection between my media folder and tagdiv is corrupt.
I’ve tried multiple different files types.
I cannot upload any of my own media onto the website, for anything for any purpose in tagdiv composer.
I’ve never touched WPbakery builder (doesn’t even work)
Please ANY HELP would be appreciated
hello,
You must change all of the instances of the social counter. Changing it in one place will not affect the other place the widget is used. For example, changing it on pages, will not affect it on posts if on the page it was implemented directly into the tagdiv composer and on posts it is added as a widget in the sidebar area. You will have to change both the page element and the widget in the WordPress sidebars area.
Thank you!
Also, I’ve only ever used TD composer, ever since i bought the newspaper theme my WPbakery builder has never even worked.
Hi,
There should have been a message after you update the theme, mentioning which plugins have been deactivated and have to be updated
– https://www.screencast.com/t/oz47yCgnu2tn
Only the tagDiv composer ans social counter update automatically, the others should have an update button in the theme plugins panel
– https://www.screencast.com/t/YB2FyeH8
Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Hi,
So you want to use the tagDiv composer or WPBakery? Both work properly with the theme. We still provide the WPBakery plugin and update it regularly.
First be sure to check the updated theme requirements guide, top to bottom
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
If there is no need for modifications in that matter, in some cases the solutions from these topics worked for tagDiv composer problems, you could give them a try if possible
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/gray-page-tagdiv/
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/javascript-error-td-composer-wont-load/
Let us know if there is still a problem.
Thanks
Hi,
Tried that as well, in the theme panel
Module 16 – https://www.screencast.com/t/zDnz7yoGXj0m
For module MX2 be sure to check carefully when it is used
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-blocks-modules/
For example in block 19 – https://www.screencast.com/t/R4RgvKKfTG
The module fonts can be modified in the composer as well

Thanks
Hello nouveau,
Where exactly you want to move the Widget element? Provide some useful screenshots of the desired position. Notice that the Widget element can be added with TD Composer, being a simple element.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
The tagDiv composer and social counter should update automatically. If they do not, there should be a message mentioning that they failed to update and have been deactivated. Then an update button should appear in the theme plugins panel
– https://www.screencast.com/t/d36pnc3j
Be sure to check after updating the theme if the plugins were automatically updated. If not, update theme as mentioned.
Thanks
Hi,
@espedfk2 Those are two different things, a browser related shaking when editing a page with the composer, and a message which is just a simple message (not an error).
We tested a few days ago the composer with the latest Safari browser, there was no flickering. What exactly is the problem you are having, as a result of what action? We will test more.
That is the update, 9.0.1 it should fix the text and raw HTML issues.
@Jair Prandi That may be caused by insufficient memory. For some users with 500 errors or login problems setting a limit of 256M worked and the issues were solved. Check in the theme system status and check what value is displayed for the WP memory.
@attefall What do you mean screwed up? Some screenshots or a link to the website would have been very helpful.
Has the composer update automatically? Check if it is active. It will be deactivated if for some reason the automatic update does not work. In that case there should be an update button here
– https://www.screencast.com/t/4QQp3yYwVuQ
Update all the theme plugins that you use, they are provided in the theme package. If you use caching or CDN, clear both after you update. Let us know if there is still a problem.
Hello thoughtful,
Unfortunately, the TD Composer has not been designed to be used for creating a post with this builder, sorry! Also, you can try to activate and use the Visual Composer for posts pages but this is not tested with the theme. If you want to have this feature, you should switch your theme to Newspaper.
Thanks for your understanding!
I’m using tagdiv composer to do ads, the one in sidebar works fine. but when I insert a custom ad below the sidebar ad (using the same image and code) it does not appear. However mobile shows 2 ads while desktop shows only 1.
In short I am only using tagdiv composer however the ads aren’t behaving as I expect them to.
I received a security warning from VaultPress and they looked into it and said that td-composer is triggering a security warning due to an unsanitized PHP global variable being used to include or require other files. This poses a security risk for your site and should be addressed.
I recently installed the Gutenberg editor and TD-cloud – theme and all plug-ins are up-to-date.
What are my next steps? (in detail please, I am not an advanced user).
Hello,
I am creating a webpage using Newspaper Theme and I am trying to add a specific element – for example Big Grid 8 – beneath the header but upon the content of a subpage. While I can do it using TD Composer, I can’t figure out how to make it to be added to each subpage like for example blog posts without manual adding it in TD Composer.
Is there any way to do it without modifying the template’s code?
and yeah i think most of us know how to update a damn theme or a plugin so this not not the case. the problem is with this tagdiv composer. it does not work with the previous demo. it just does not work. should not be my problem.
i have been stuck for 2 weeks because of this tagdiv composer. it does not work and it ruins what i already had going.
i would screen shot you but no i see no pic attachment here.
all i need to do is just install your theme and install demo. the default version. i managed to do that.
but now all i get is empty page on my homepage (set to open a page by default, a page called news).
turned out i have to redo the entire page all over and i have to use this tagdiv which does not work. nothing on the tutorial is as it looks here. pick this and that, nothing shows.
i really need help.
