Hello,
The visual composer plugin is not a trial version. The front-end editor was disabled on our theme because it created conflicts with our theme blocks and grids. Only the back-end editor can be used. As for the activation code, the message can be ignored as you cannot activate the plugin in the bundled version. This is mentioned here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hi,
It means you had visual composer installed on your site before but did not remove it properly. There is still the visual composer folder left behind. In this case you will have to go in via ftp and delete the visual composer folder. Then you can install the plugin again.
Thank you!
Hello,
The demos do not change the theme functionality. The block settings are present on every demo: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/
If you cannot access the visual composer apge editor, that probably means you have a plugin that prevents this. Please disable all plugins except visual composer and clear cache. Then test the visual composer page builder again.
Thank you!
Hello,
If you mention this news ticker element: https://www.screencast.com/t/Lc7DSwhjCM you can simply edit your homepage in visual composer and drag the news ticker below the main grid in the visual composer editor.
If this is not what you mean, please provide more details so I can better understand how to help.
Thanks.

Hi,
Try and re-add a video to the post featured video field, select the video format and one of the recommended post templates and update the post. It should generate the featured image from that video. You could also try as a test to disable all your plugins except Visual composer, clear any caching installed and then try again, just to see if a plugin is the cause for this to happen. Please let us know how it goes.
Thanks
Hello Zelena,
It seems your images are stuck in opacity 0. This usually happens on a js error caused by plugins or customization or other external optimization tools.
Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset CDN files if you use it. Please also check any custom code you might have added to the theme panel or the theme files. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme to make sure it does not affect the proper functionality of the theme.
Thank you!
Hello,
Right now I cannot see any issues on your site.
We do not have any such reports of duplicate menu items.
This could be a plugin conflict so please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Please also check any custom code you might have added to the theme panel or the theme files. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme to make sure it does not affect the proper functionality of the theme.
Thank you!
Hello Beyyette,
I have inspected your website and I saw that you have some js errors through your console, as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/PBuePfXaax Notice that our theme does not have any troubles with the mega menu and it should work as expected. If you are using some untested plugins and if you have some additional customizations through the code (custom js or any other customizations) try to rule out all of these, leave just Visual Composer to active and install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme core files and rule out any conflicting plugins. After this, ensure that you have setup your mega menu according to our documentation here -> and also, make sure that you are using the latest version of the theme if you want to bring the best results with our product.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi there,
It seems that there is a bug with Visual Composer and my theme.
When I set Visual Composer, the H1 meta disappears, I have to add in manually on the text. You can have a look on my index for example : emprunter-malin.com.
Have you seen this issue with the theme previously ?
Thanks in advanced.
Hey there,
I am still facing the issue currently. I have checked with the Visual Composer Support and they have checked my website and replied accordingly.
“It looks like the visual tab is missing even for the default WP editor at your end. We use the same editor in our text block and hence the issue exists there too. Looks like a third party code is altering it. Please try deactivating all the plugins except visual composer and especially switching onto a default theme like twenty fifteen to check the same. You can then activate them one by one to find out the exact one causing the issue. Let us know if the issue still exists.”
I would like to check if I were to do the following and switch to different themes . Will it cause any theme / content lost?
Relating probably to my last post regarding the Visual Composer not being activated although it says this theme comes with all plugins and there is no limitation on sites I can upload them on…the Frontend Editor for Visual Composer doesnt appear when I open the pages, only Backend editor and this is usually the sign of a trial version of this plugin.
Can you please tell me whats going on? I need to start editing my sites today.
Cheers Oliver
I installed Newspaper theme on two of my sites, http://www.wonderersjournal.com and http://www.familyinmotion.net and I had to install the plugins from the Main Folder manually. Now it says I need to activate them and need the license key, everytime I click on Activate the page fails to load.
How can I go about this?
I am trying to install from zip file and I get this message:
Unpacking the package…
Installing the plugin…
Destination folder already exists. /home/jabolko/public_html/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/
Plugin install failed.
Also, have him ‘ignore’ the nag screen to register/activate Visual Composer; not needed with the ‘bundled version’ included with theme.
( I don’t work here. )
got some error when i activated visual composer, the plugin page can’t be access, trying to inactive all the plugin but only visual composer and still got same error. the error shows like this.
need some help
I had the exact same problem for several days and in the end this is what worked for me…
1. Delete the current version of the social counter plugin completely
2. Put whatever security/firewall plugin you use into learning mode or temporarily disable it
3. Delete all browser cache
4. Download the updated plugin zip mentioned bat Catalin in this related article thread https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/problem-with-facebook-social-counter/
5. Upload/install plugin from WordPress plugin page
6. Activate plugin
7. Add your Facebook ID, App ID and secret from within the Social Counter widget OR Social Counter element in a new page on Visual Composer (both ways worked for me after all the above)
I truly hope that works for you as well.

Hi
I have also found the answer to my second question in a post by Emil G ” How to: update Visual Composer”. The answer is also in the How-tos.

Hi
I have managed to solve the problem of not being able to upload my theme by googling “The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.” There was some good advice there that was really helpful on this subject.
I still want to know if I have to purchase a licence to use visual composer to get all the updates and premium support.

I have a very strange problem reported from my user (who is also owner of the site). He can’t copy and paste links anymore, using his tablet. I thought it might be a tablet problem, but he tried it on different tablets, all work the same. I tried it, but can’t reproduce the error.
He copies a link, pastes it in the article, which works. But the link is gone when he saves or posts the article.
He also gets a message to register his Visual Composer. I’ve just extended my subscription, but have to install the latest version. Might that be the cause of the problem?
Hi
I have just purchased the newspaper theme and tried to install it locally using MAMP. I follow this process from the dashboard –> themes –> add new –> upload theme –> Choose File –> Install Now. I am using the theme zip file but it won’t upload and instead, I get a message “Are you sure you want to do this?” Then this link “please try again” which doesn’t work either. This is a fresh WordPress install that I am using in MAMP and I can install themes like twenty fourteen from WordPress.Org by choosing that theme and clicking install. I can also install the newspaper theme on my live site (MySpace.net.nz) but want to be able to develop in my local environment which I have been able to do so with other themes before, although I am no expert.
I have just tried uploading a child theme which is only 13kb and was successful. Next, I tried to upload the parent theme, (not newspaper), which is 3809kb and got this message “The uploaded file exceeds the upload_max_filesize directive in php.ini.” so I presume the problem I have got is a lack of space in my local MAMP environment. I have 826GB of free disk space on my computer if that has anything to do with it. How do I solve this problem so that I can upload the newspaper theme?
Next problem. On my live site, I have activated Visual Composer which looks like it is available to use but I notice that when I click on visual composer from the dashboard menu I have this message. “Hola! Would you like to receive automatic updates and unlock premium support? Please activate your copy of Visual Composer.” If I click on the link in this sentence I get taken to the product licence tab and a big blue button to activate visual composer. If I click on that I get taken to a ” No licence found” window with a big green button to purchase a licence. Do I have to purchase a licence as I thought the plugin came with the theme at no cost?
Would be grateful for some help on these to issues I have.

Hi,
well. Did not change the widgets. “Filter by taxonomy term:” is available to me at all [tagDiv] Blogs by default. Also in visual composer i see this drop down field. But just without any content i could select. I will try adding them to td_config like described.
param_name = taxonomy name ???
thanks in advance
Hi,
The social counter plugin provided should work properly once you have cleared the browser cache. Maybe something else is interfering with this process. You could try disabling all your plugins except the social counter and Visual composer, clear the cache again and check to see if you are able to receive the token.
Please make sure you are using the account information as mentioned in this guide as well
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial-2/
Also you could give it a try in a different browser, as a test.
To disable the post view counter you need to turn them off in theme panel

Please let us know how it goes
