just bought the newspaper 8 theme and same problem with plugin tag composer. Have checked and set the memory to 64 but still cant get it installed. the same error The plugin does not have a valid header. shows.
Hello,
Please disable all plugins except the page builder, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Please also restore the modifications you made to the theme and test it under the default settings.
Please do not use both page builders at the same time as that can cause issues. Please do not use visual composer on posts as well. Visual composer only works on pages.
Thank you!
EDIT: I also found out the culprit for this odd situation, its not your theme, its Visual Composers fault…
Hello designrh,
I have inspected your website and I saw that your category pages works as expected, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/30qqC0xWmL Also, I have notice that you are using a lot of untested plugins whihc can interact with the theme core files and causes a lot of unknonw issues. Try to remove all of them, leave just Visual composer to active, clear all the caches and check the results.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
You could use the Image box element
https://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/image-box/
At the moment there is no similar gallery element created specifically for this purpose. More elements will be added to the tagDiv composer in future updates.
Or you could try and search for a gallery plugin, maybe you can find one that you can use in the meantime and works properly with the theme.
Thanks
i use visual composer to make
Hello Jfthai2015,
Sorry, but please notice that the theme should work as expected with the TD Composer and also, the Visual Composer. All of these builders has been tested with this plugin and you should bring best theme results if you are using them. If the problem is still there, you should make a new clean install from scratch and install only the theme via FTP way and also, only the required plugins and rule out any conflicting plugins.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for the message!

Hello,
Sorry but i do not think there is a spell checker in visual composer. You can try this alternative solution though: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-check-grammar-and-spelling-mistakes-in-wordpress/

Hi,
The latest version of the theme is Newspaper 8
– https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609
The new front-end page editor, the tagDiv composer is included in the theme package, as of version 8.
Here is a guide to help you with the theme update process
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Also update all the bundled plugins, provided in the theme.
More information about the tagDiv composer here

Thanks

I can’t find the visual omposer plugin in the zip file I dowloaded after purchasing. I don’t want use tagdiv composer for several reasons (I can suppose that’s a good solution, but I don’t need it).
How I can install the Visual Composer plugin in Newspaper 8?
Thanks
Hello
If you plan on using the tagdiv composer, then yes unfortunately. Visual composer was never intended to be used on poses together with our theme. You cna still use visual composer if you want to , but please note that we will no longer add any new features to it. We will still provide updates but the new features we will add in future updates will be for the tagdiv composer exclusively.
Thank you!
Hello Ting-Chih Wang,
This behavior could be happened by your untested plugins. Please try to disable all of them, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all the caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files and rule out any conflicting plugins.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Maybe the server does not meet the requirements for the level of load it currently has
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
Try to test while having no other plugins activated, except the ones provided with the theme. You should install this caching plugin with these settings
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
Also here you can find a guide to further improve the website
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
And maybe redesign your homepage using the tagDiv composer, and keep it as light as possible, like Bogdan suggested. Try using less block pagination, and ajax filters

Thanks
Hi Catalin, i just see one possible solution, but i need to know if you think it´s right and tell me how. I explain you
If i go to Pages-Homepage newspapper (Homepage) and in Visual composer open block2 settings, i see a filter like ‘post type’. Can I use this filter for example this way?
1-Post with no image i choose like ‘post template’ the style_7, no contain image on design
2-In visual composer, block2 settings, i choose style default or other, an so don´t show post template ‘style_7’
It´s possible that solution, in case yes, how write the only shows default style?
Thanks for your help
Hi Simion,
I have followed what you said.
regenerated the images. I am using a shared server, i dont think they will install the GD library.
Do you have other solutions?
As for the tagDIV composer, any alternatives i can use if i want to display images of my team?
I’m new to tagdiv and the Newpaper theme so excuse my utter ignorance.
How do I enable a spell checker in the visual composer?
Hi,
It seems the theme is not creating the necessary thumbs for the gallery to display
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/gallery-2/
You could try to regenerate the thumbnails using this guide
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-fix-strange-looking-images-on-blocks/
Also see the important note in the guide, and check if the server has the required GD library installed.
The slide gallery is not intended to be used on pages, only on posts. It may not work properly in this situation. On pages you can use elements from the tagDiv composer.
Thanks
Hi Catalin,
I’ve found the solution. In some way, WordPress doesn’t want an already activated theme. I installed a fresh Newspaper on live site, activated it and then copied the exported theme panel settings and it worked. The problem was that all your plugin, such as JS Composer, TagDiv Mobile or TagDiv Social, weren’t seen by Newspaper. I had to uninstall and reinstall them again.
I deployed a lot of sites in the past from localhost to live server, but this is the first time such a situation happened. Probably when you activate theme on localhost, theme registers something associating the theme to that server. So, when you deploy it to live server it simply breaks.
Anyway I found the solution.
Hi,
Try as a test to deactivate all your plugins except the tagDiv composer, and clear you cache afterwards. Then create a page and place the element you want on it and test again.
Using the image that you are in the image box

These are the results I get

Hi,
I just want to share something for those who use WPForo with Newspaper.
I try to put module on top of my forum, with tagdiv composer, and i discover than if you have tagdiv code on WPForo page, your forum take the full space.
Finally i don’t use module on top but just this code :
[vc_row][/vc_row][wpforo]
And my forum take full template space and look better.
Many thanks Simion, could not fix the error (hmmmm). So, if no one have problems with the plugins, I will try it with fresh installation, maybe it works. Just for information – my translation plugins are: q-Translation-X, qTranslation slug, WPBakery Visual Composer & qTranslation-X
You don’t have to activate the Visual Composer plugin, it’s already activated. Ignore the activation message. It will appear for everyone.
