Hello,
The latest version of visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/WuVC6nBCc is provided in newspaper 7.2. Please update your plugin by deactivating and deleting files for your current plugin from the plugins section of wordpress and then install it from here: http://screencast.com/t/pVG8DvOnV03u
Thank you!
Hi,
We always try to improve our theme but the elements you described are not part of the standard visual composer repository so we cannot add extra vc elements. What we can add are theme specific elements. We try on every major update to bring new features and block elements so this is the general plan 🙂 Unfortunately this process is not easy and it takes time.
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately if you use visual composer on posts (not recommended) this issue will be present on the mobile theme. The mobile theme does not use visual composer and that is why it will show the shortcode on posts. Pages got converted to mobile versions you have top create in the mobile editor but visual composer on posts is not recommended. You can use it but these will be the consequences. You can either stop using VC on posts or stop using the mobile theme as there is no workaround for it. Sorry. (here is where it;s mentioned about VC: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ – http://screencast.com/t/1sK8WVIO1ig)
Thank you!
Hi
You can put the css code in the same html row added with Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/TH1pF5q8T Also you can target a specific page by using its page-id-abc class.
Thanks!
There is one thing again. Why in the latest update of newspaper has the oldest version of Visual Composer (4.12)? How to get the latest version of Visual Composer?
Thank you
Thank you!
And one more question: is it possible to edit the page of Author Posts (example: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/author/admin/) in Visual Composer?
I want to add various elements below the main content.
Thanks!
Dear TagDiv
After I updating my theme to newspaper version 7.2, The Visual Composer didn’t work. Any suggestion what should I do? Because I need to edit and create a new page.
Thank You in Advance
Hello,
If you want to add content to the sidebars and footer, you need to access the widgets area of WP and place content in your sidebars: http://screencast.com/t/VMEdA9Em
If your homepage does not use a side-bar but a split row in visual composer you have to add content directly in page edit like so: http://screencast.com/t/66rmu3YPUWeJ
Please read the documentation as you will find much useful information that can help you on your project:

Thank you!
Hello,
If settings from revolution slider do not apply to your slides, please clear your cache and reset cdn files. Also try to test other settings and see if anything applies as it may affect other settings as well. Also you can try to disable all plugins except visual composer and clear cache again to rule out a plugin conflict.
Also make sure the id of the posts are correct. You can get post id’s like so: http://screencast.com/t/WqoPeGuyk
Let us know if you still have trouble with this setting.
Thank you!
Hi,
Unfortunately these elements are not present in the standard version of visual composer. Our theme only disabled the front-end editor but we did not remove any elements= from the plugin. You can test this by activating a default WP theme and testing visual composer. We did not modify anything in the plugin structure. All modifications required for visual composer are done through the theme, not by editing the plugin itself so activating a default theme, you will be able to see the plugin in it’s original state.
Thank you!
On mobile devices tapping the search from the header produces a zoom effect, but no input field. I can replicate this on a desktop if I squeeze the browser width to less than 768px.
This happens even when all plugins are disabled, including Visual Composer.
Here’s what it looks like in a screenshot:

I have the latest version 7.2 and the latest VC that came with it.
NO SUCCESS
1. deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer–DID
2. clear all caches–DID
3. purge cdn files –DO NOT KNOW HOW
4. update the theme according with our documentation–DID

Hi guys!
When I add a custom HTML code with Visual composer how can I put custom CSS that applies only to that HTML code. I tried putting it in Theme panel> Custom code > CSS area but it loads on every page and it become a mess.
I need to know where to put the CSS to only apply to the HTML I want.
Thanks!
Hi,
1. Just edit your page and using Visual Composer pagebuilder add the Big Grid element to your page content – http://screencast.com/t/HQ3aUjAcRPor
Maybe this tutorial can help – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can create a new page and play a little using Visual Composer, create new layouts and new elements just to make an idea how it works. It is not so difficult and you will manage to make an idea, if you never use it before.
2. You don’t need to buy or register Visual Composer, it is licensed to the theme, please read more here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-update-visual-composer-2/ and in the update guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
3. I’m not sure what you mean. Do you want to place it in the sidebar? You can do this from Widgets area.
4. Do you have any articles on your site? From what I see you don’t have – http://screencast.com/t/agPPJ0pqhdUl I guess that’s why the Big Grid doesn’t appear on your site, if there are no posts to display, the tagdiv elements will not appear.
I suggest to follow some wordpress tutorials, you can find some of them also in our documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/ and then please check the theme documentation to make an idea about the theme settings and features.
Hope this helps!
Hi
The settings from theme panel > categories section won’t affect your homepage, they are applied exclusively for category pages. For more detail in this regard please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
The homepage can be customized using Visual Composer page-builder. Please check our documentation for more details about this process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance on this please provide your site url and more specific detail about what you’re trying to do so we can inspect it closer and get back to you with a more accurate answer.
Thanks!
Hi
Is it possible to activate some of the missing Visual Composer Elements like:
– Icon Box
– List Icon
– Pricing Table
While I understand that the default purpose of theme is to serve more as a magazine or news blog, it is helpful to have these other elements in creating a landing or sales page.
Thanks
Greetings to all of you.
A few weeks ago we created our website on a platform wordpress and now we use NEWSPAPER 7.
We want to say a huge thank you to the developers and now we are asking for something a little bit extra support.
1. How to make a “Home page” in the format “Big Grid 1” ? ( like here: http://www.bradfordzone.co.uk/category/news/ we have tried several times using Visual Composer )
2. We tried to activate Visual Composer, but it showed that we must purchase an additional license key?
3. How to add POPULAR CATEGORY in a post? ( doesn’t show in a footer )
4. POPULAR POSTS doesn’t show in a footer?
Could we have done something wrong? To understand all of the flaws, please check our Web site: http://leedsstar.com
We’d like to hear from you.
Thanks in advance.
Hi,
Good job at the Euro’s!
Visual composer has to be updated to work with the new version of wordpress so please update your theme to the latest version by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and then update visual composer: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hi
I am not sure what could cause this as we didn’t received similar reports before. It could be a conflict between Social Counter and another installed plugin. Try to deactivate all plugins, leave just Visual Composer and Social Counter active, clear all caches then test again. Also check browser’s console when you try to generate the token. If the request fails there shout be an error related with the theme or social counter plugin.
Let us know how it goes and if the problem persist please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.
Thanks!
Hello,
If you use the mobile theme, the content from pages, footer and others will revert back to default as the mobile theme does not use visual composer, thus no blocks or widgets can be used. Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
Hi,
Please update your theme to the latest version by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and then update your visual composer plugin by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
If your visual composer problem is not fixed, try to disable all other plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Good day Portugal.
Although we are very pleased with the passage to the final of the Euro, we wanted to work today and is happening a problem ..
We have created a page “Homepage” but whenever you choose a visual block composer nothing happens ..
Thanks

Hi Andrei,
Thanks for the clarification on the social counter.
Regarding the Access Token, I already updated to the latest version of Visual Composer from the latest Newspaper update. It still cannot get any token using the “Get Access Token”. It just says “Please wait”. Is there anything I should check that might be preventing it to work properly?
Thanks.
