Hello andre.schetino,
Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all your caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with the theme and rule out any conflicting plugins. Also, if your problem is still there after this, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your log-in information (wp-admin) so we can further inspect it closer your setup page. Provide there the link of this topic so we can easily identify you.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi, I have problem to set my homepage with visual composer. What’s I am missing it? Thanks
Check this images :


Yes, I cheated a bit as we only recommend using the 3 highlighted columns for the layout, but inside a tab element, we can make an exception 😛 I added a row inside the tab and split the row in 4 columns Then I added an image in each column.
Thanks.
PS the split row will work with visual composer elements properly. Our theme elements are the ones that cannot be used inside other columns than these ones: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/

Hello how,
I have inspected your website and I saw that you are using an older version of the theme, like as Newspaper 6.6.1. Please keep in mind that our theme has changed a lot until now and if you will have to bring best results you will have to update your theme to the latest version of it (Newspaper 7.4) with come bundled with the latest version of required plugins which is Social Counter 4.1 and Visual Composer 4.12.1. Try to update your theme via FTP because this is the surest method in this regard, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ , clear all your caches, purge CDN files if you are using the CDN system and check the results. Please keep in mind that our theme is continuously developing and you will have to keep up the theme updatings to bring best results in theme. This type of issue has been resolved in our new updates. Please update your theme.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi
You can ignore the activation messages as Visual Composer plugin comes bundled with the theme and you don’t need a license key for it.
Thanks!
Hello wozza,
Please notice that this is the default structure of this page template ->Page Builder Content -> Latest Articles (Sidebar). If you want to change the structure of this page template, please notice that you will have to edit the core file where this template is created, like page-pagebuilder-latest.php.
For more references in this regard, please consult the following topic here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/change-position-of-latest-article-into-visual-composer/ because there I gave a solution in this case.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello Castle Yen,
I have inspected your source page and I notice that your Google Analytics code appears twice, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/NJW1ImLtJ3 First of all, please notice that by default, our theme insert the Google Analytics code in theme head and not in body. Do you have manually added that code in another part of the theme, like as in header.php? Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all your caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out any conflicting plugins.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Yes you might have mentioned only iphones have the issue. I tested on android and windows phones.
I inspected your site again and saw that you are feeding images from your localhost on the live site.: http://screencast.com/t/45m80LJhtp
Please check all images and make sure your images are uploaded to your media library and implemented with the theme’s default implementation method. If you add images with css, do not use images from your localhost.
Also try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Please also try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and rest cdn files. Then try to use the default theme implementation for images.
Thank you!
Hi,
Juts bought NewsMag. Is Visual composer lisence not included in the product? Visual composer is asking me to activate licence and when I click on activate licence, it says “No Licence Found”
Hi
You can change the ids from social counter by editing the page with Visual Composer as it’s indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-use-visual-composer/ Locate Social Counter block, edit it and change the ids. For more informations about plugin’s setup please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-tagdiv-social-counter-tutorial/
Let us know if you need further assistance on this.
Thanks!
Hello vexteo,
You do not need to activate your copy of Visual Composer as it’s a free version bundled with the theme that does not require any activation. The only way you can activate it is to buy the plugin and receive a purchase code but you do not need to do that. It is mentioned here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
Unfortunately it seems these option cannot be altered as this is a visual composer element, not a theme element. The implementation does not allow me to change the responsiveness properly nor can I ad any spacing besides the images without breaking the layout.
One solution would be to either add in separate images, not a gallery or add a text element where you can create the layout yourself. The gallery does not seem to respond well to any alteration.
here is an example of images added separately: http://screencast.com/t/ttT0y3cqYR
Thanks.
Hi
Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test the site again. Also male sure that the parameters from system status have the parameters indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
This issue may also be caused by some firewall from the server which block’s theme’s request for that thumb. Try to contact your host provider and ask him if on the server are any restrictions or firewalls which may prevent importing content from external sources.
Thanks!
Hello,
There seems to be a major issue on your site as not even google can access it to provide the page speed insight.
Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it.
If the issue is still there, please make sure you meet the requirements for newspaper and increase the system status parameters. These 2 guides should help:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
After you make sure everything is set and you only use the tested and approved plugins, then you can start optimizing your site speed.
Thank you!
Hello vexteo,
Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the theme which should have installed via FTP because this is the surest method in this regard. If you are using some untested plugins, please try to disable all of them, leave just Visual Composer (version 4.12.1) to active and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out any conflicting plugins. Also, if your problem is still there, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your log-in information (wp-admin) so we can further inspect it closer your setup page and also, provide there the link to this topic so we can easily identify you.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
Please also make sure you clear cache and reset cdn files
Also please check any image optimization tools you might have on your site. Plugin conflicts can also affect images;. So please check the plugins as well. You can try to disable all of them except visual composer. clear cache and reset cdn files.
if you still cannot get the thumbs to work, please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide a link to your site and wp-admin so we can login and investigate.
Thank you!

Hi Support
Just purchased your theme and love it – feedback has been good.
I have one question I want to move the latest articles up higher but they this block is not in visual composer to move up. I can see in the templates pagebuilder + latest articles + pagination.
website is http://theirishexpress.com.au/
Thanks
Brian
Our site is just set live on this theme. We like the look, but are trying to work through some of the kinks. One issue we are having is that when I log in it prompts us to activate Visual Composer. I have followed the various discussions and instructions on the forums, but nothing seems to work. It still wants me to pay for a license. It sends me to a page with the text below. How can we resolve this?
Thank you.
NO LICENSES FOUND
It seems that you do not have any valid license for Visual Composer. What does it mean? It may be so that you got Visual Composer by purchasing WordPress theme which does not grant you with direct license for Visual Composer. Why do I need direct license? Direct product license unlocks several benefits:
Access official customer support
(otherwise managed by your theme author)
Update Visual Composer directly
Use Visual Composer with any theme
(not just the one you got it with)
Manage your licenses at Client Portal
If you have just purchased a direct license for Visual Composer and do not see your license in available license list take into account that sometimes it can take up to 30 minutes while Envato provides us with new licenses. If there is still no license available, please logout of support.wpbakery.com and log in again via the CodeCanyon account and re-try the activation. If there are still problems, contact us via our CodeCanyon profile and share your item purchase code along with the WordPress login details, so that we can investigate the issue further.
My Visual Composer stopped working, how do I fix this. I even purchased a Visual Composer License but I don’t think thats the problem. I emailed support for WPbakery this was the conversation.
Me
“I tried to edit a page but my Visual composer no longer is working. I had bought a license thinking that was the issue but found out that my company already had a license since we purchased the newspaper theme about a year and a half ago.”
WPBakery
“The issue is because you are using an older version of visual composer and should update it to the latest version which is 4.12.1. You need to deactivate and delete the older version of the plugin from theme and then install the standalone version which is purchased by you. However, I would also suggest you to re-confirm the same with the theme author before proceeding, because if he has done any changes to the core plugin files, then they will be lost during this process which in-turn can affect the content and layout at your end.”
Hi Bogdan and thanks for the answer.
I have tried to disable all my plugins except visual composer but it changes nothing.
I can’t clear the cache for my website because I don’t have a cache plugin installed.
I have no js optimization tools on my site and no child theme that can affect the theme js…
I have checked your site and the zoom effect is completely disabled from your site. You can see the loading animation and then when you hover over the posts in the big grid nothing happens.
This is on chrome. On Firefox it behaves as you describe. This could be a plugin conflict so please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Also make sure you do not use any js optimization tools or a child theme that can affect the theme js.
Let us know if you still have trouble with this.
Thank you!
Hi,
I’ve previously deactivated the mobile plugin, now turned on again.
I’ve already disabled visual composer.
The short code still appears.
Pls help.
Thank you
Hello,
I can no longer see the shortcodes on your site on mobile or desktop. Please let us know if you require any further assistance with this. Right now you do not use the mobile theme but please note that the mobile theme does not use visual composer as mentioned here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
Hello Chris,
Thank you for this interesting return.
I was able to apply a tag <h2> (manually).
Precisely we only keep the <h1> and <h2>. The tags <h3> are too many. But instead of removing the <h3>, we would like to turn them into tags <h2>.
Here is part of the hierarchy of tags currently on the website (extract):
<h1> Chainesbox
<h3> Chaines Polaire X10 (ou chaines araignées)
<h3> Le top 10 des plus beaux chalets
<h2> Chaine neige guide achat
<h4> Guide d’achat
<h3> Chaine neige pour Mini Clubman : équipement hiver
<h3> Quelle chaine à neige choisir pour BMW série 3 ?
<h3> Chaine neige Audi A3, quel modèle choisir?
<h4> Insolite
Include the <h2> following your advice, but it is unfortunately misplaced.
How do we transform the <h3> to the <h2>? (In code or in visual composer)
Thank you. Kind regards.
