Hi there,
I’ve some problems with blocks in visual composer.
Please take a look at http://www.bangkokbits.com. it seems that I can’t click on any subcategories (Discover, Food, Stay, Transporation and tips). Plus, I also can’t click ‘next page’ button.
Can you please advise how to solve this?
Thank you very much.
Newspaper version; 7
Visual composer version; 4.11.2
Hi, i set up a page with block 23 but when viewed in mobile the thumbnail image is not full width like the demo.
http://splashysplash.com/
when the template is used on categories it works on category pages but when i create a custom page using visual composer and blocks thumbnail is not full width. how can i fix this? thanks
Okay this is what we have done:
Visual Composer (4.11.2) – updated – uninstalled any old versions
Latest Theme (newspaper 7) – clean install
Cleared cache
removed tinyMCE
Updated to WP 4.5.2
Have pushed the site to staging to test these updates
http://sportsmansblog.staging.wpengine.com/
Also now with these updates – the TagFDiv social counter is broken.
any other ideas to get these now 2 issues fixed?
thanks
So, you cleared transients, and have allocated more than 40MB RAM to WordPress in your wp-config.php file ?
Visual Composer won’t work unless you allocate more RAM in your wp-config.php file.
it’s typically been in the ‘all files’ download with tagdiv themes the past 3 years.
Is this what you’re looking for ?

i ve updated the theme to the latest version, wordpress to latest version, Visual Composer to latest version and text editor do not work. When you go to add new post the box “TITLE” is ok but TEXT editor doesnt work. Disabled all plugins and also did not worked. Any ideas ? Thank you!
Hello.
As we get the latest update of theme (Newspaper7), we also get Visual composer broken. Latest theme update did not offer latest update of Visual composer plugin to us. We have Version 4.9.2 installed and latest is: current version 4.11.2.
If we got VC in a theme, that means that theme author has license and only he/she can download latest versions of VC and include it in the theme. We as a theme user, may use Visual Composer free of charge while we use theme that came with VC (because we have license for that theme).
I assume that this is a main reason of all our problems, and i really need to know why we did not get latest update in our theme update? This is serious problem, we can not work at all till this is over.
Please try to solve this ASAP.
Thanks

a) make sure you update VC plugin properly by
— delete old folder in /plugins/
— upload NEW updated js-composer plugin folder via FTP into your plugins folder
b) log-in to your theme
c) clear web browser cache completely
d) clear transients with wp-optimze
e) launch visual composer
f) if your page shows [code] try preview then ‘save’ without making changes
g) read up on changes to Visual Composer in case *they* decided to deprecate/retire some feature, which no longer works and will leave an empty space or reveal dead shortcode — only option is to remove old dead shortcode, and rebuilt that element
and it goes without saying you should ALREADY have increased your default memory for WP to 96MB or more in your wp-config.php file to even use VC at all!
VC is nice to have drag and drop, but it’s a tricky little bastard… er … little fellow.
If you get white screen of death, that’s a whole ‘nuther story.
Good luck!

Visual composer plugin comes with the Newspaper theme, so we dont have option to update directly, only throw the theme update. Newspaper 7 is not offering option to update VC to latest. What about that problem?
Did you solve the problem? I have the same problem here. Mine theme and Visual composer plugin are up to date, but still nothing.
http://www.americkiizbori2016.rs
Triple. Here is the same problem, and yes, you re right – @blujimbo. It started before latest update. Visual composer not working, just loading and loading. Backend editor is not showing at all. Plugin is up to date (Visual C), and there was not some new plugins installed on my site.
Please give us some answers fast. Thanks
Hi there,
First of all, I manage to update the Theme from version 6.7.2 to version 7.0 without having a problem, if you have some customization through code, you will have to do a backup and then you should try to re-implement this in Newspaper 7 files. Here’s what I did:
1. Switch your site to “Maintenance Mode” using a plugin or if you don’t have its fine also.
2. I switch my Theme from “Newspaper” to “Twenty Fifteen” theme since its in “Maintenance Mode” so nobody sees it except me. 🙂
3. I deactivate all my plugins and if possible do not deactivate the following plugins “WP Super Cache”, “Cloudflare” and my “Maintenance Mode” plugin, please note that “WP Super Cache” plugin once deactivated and activated again the settings change back to its default and make sure you set it to the correct settings or follow this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/cache-plugin-install-and-configure/
4. Please don’t skip this to always backup the files and the database or ask your hosting company to guide you on how to do it, in case something goes wrong with the server you could use the backup to revert to the previous state as what the Documentation says follow this guide link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ – Please read it carefully and follow what the instruction says follow the guide until Serial “A. Update the theme via FTP” only, this is the best way possible to update the Theme recommended by the tagdiv team.
5. After the update please ensure that you have cleared all your caches and purge your CDN files if you are using the CDN, and then go into the Theme Panel and click on the Save Settings button.
6. Update the following plugins – Visual Composer, Slider Revolution, tagDiv Social Counter and tagDiv Speed Booster that comes with the latest file you just downloaded from Envato>Download>All Files & documentation inside that there is a Folder name Plugins, how to update these plugins? follow this link and read it carefully: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ and do the same way with the remaining plugins Slider Revolution, tagDiv Social Counter and tagDiv Speed Booster only.
7. Check your site if it’s working or not, if it is working then proceed to the next step, congrats you made it. 🙂
8. Then start activating again your plugins that you just deactivated earlier in Serial 3, much better one by one to activate your plugin then you will know what causing you a problem if you activate a plugin, first you activate the recommended ones then the rest of your plugins.
9. Since you haven’t found any problem at all and if you have some customization through code on the previous version, then you should try to re-implement this in Newspaper 7.
Try this common troubleshooting tool:
a. Clearing all your caches and purge your CDN files help a lil bit of our common problems.
b. Save again your Permalinks in case you have some extra Pages which comes or created by your Third Party Plugins and problems with some links are “Not Found”, go to Dashboard>Settings>Permalinks and mine is set to “Post name” then click “Save Changes”.
Lastly, if you have found any error or conflict or question about anything, please just do a search here in the forum or write a new topic and address your problem and I just share this atleast a lil help for the awesome tagdiv team. Great theme ever!!!
I love the new update Newspaper version 7 🙂
Enjoy!!!
Hi Guys,
Does anyone know how we can recover to the regular page builder in visual Composer.
Everything was working fine. And one day it all stopped. Here is the url to the screen shot.
This is the screen we see and makes moving the blocks around very dificult.
https://www.siempreactivo.tv/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/VComposer.jpg
Thanks for your help!
My website http://www.observerxtra.com on mobile version displays a white screen with the text:
“The mobile theme path couldn’t be set. Please check if you already have another mobile theme plugin active and disable it (ex. Jetpack Mobile Theme or similar) If you use a cache plugin clear it before checking the results.”
When I updated the site last night, the mobile was working. I even changed the colour and it was working great. By the morning, without touching the site again the error message is displayed. Have to say when it was working I really liked it. Much faster which is super important for mobile — thank you for creating this add on. When I can get it working on our site it will be a great asset.
I don’t have another mobile theme plugin installed or Jetpack. I am hosted on WPengine and they look after cache and don’t allow cache plugins. I cleared the cache for page and object but nothing has changed. I updated all of my plugins.
After the upgrade to v7 my pages have gone wonky in the background – especially my homepage which I can’t get into anymore to edit. I read that Visual Composer was breaking these pages and not the theme, however, I have the latest visual composer and something is wonky with my current pages. If I start a fresh new page everything looks fine.
I would super appreciate if someone can take a look.
Hello,
For a few days I’ve been trying to figure out how to get the visual composer to work on my website. Unfortunately, the only thing I’ve been getting is a continuous spinning wheel.
How do I fix this?
Thank you,

Hey Andrei,
So I had this exact same problem when WordPress updated recently, but you guys fixed it through a theme update. However, the exact same problem mentioned by ozzie62 happened to me last week. For now, I have turned off lazyload so my images show. But, I updated the theme yesterday and even the Visual Composer Plugin like you said, but nothing changed. My site is shanaplandebate.com. Please help me out!
Hello,
after theme update, you can not log in anymore, and appears as follows:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function visual_composer() in /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/functions.php:205 Stack trace: #0 /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-includes/plugin.php(525): myoverride(”) #1 /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-settings.php(393): do_action(‘init’) #2 /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-config.php(39): require_once(‘/srv/users/serv…’) #3 /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-load.php(37): require_once(‘/srv/users/serv…’) #4 /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-login.php(12): require(‘/srv/users/serv…’) #5 {main} thrown in /srv/users/serverpilot/apps/wordpress/public/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/functions.php on line 205
Hello Guys,
we updated to Newspaper 7 and got an issue (maybe bug) regarding Visual Composer and the Author Box . We excluded severals ID’s to only show up some Authors, which was fine in V6.7.2. After the update to Newspaper 7 all settings will simply ignored, so that all Authors will show up. :-/
All Plugins (including Visual Composer) are up 2 date and all caches and Caching Plugins were cleared.
Any suggestions would be helpful.
Cheers,
Chris
For the missing checkbox for the category “Articles”, I found that the reason for this was because “Articles” was set as a default category and default categories can’t be deleted.
Regarding the custom post type “Magazines” posts not showing together with regular posts, it was a visual composer setting where I had to click “edit” on the Visual Composer block where the posts would show, clicking the “filter” tab and specifying the custom post type in the field “Post Type”.
I think Visual Composer needs to get it together, everyone and their mothers are complaining http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431/comments?page=640&filter=all#comment_13177247
I understand, but even I set the mobile ads, the visual composer code will still show and it docent look so hot
For me it docent matter anymore, as I was trying to migrate from newsmag (planned to buy licence after i was sure i wanted to keep it for this site) but I decided to revert because click to rate doped 1.8% witch makes a big difference for me. Do you guys Plan to revamp newsmag as well? The lists in newsmag converyed way better than the lists in newspapper it seams, so for now i am staying.
Still I have to say that with newspapper 7 site was looking amazing! hopefully you guys put newsmag at the same level soon.
thanks!
I am not sure if it was me adding a new component in the visual composer or if you have been in the back-end and done something but the news feed problem seems to be resolved.
I am still trying to find the correct CSS code to style the title in the big grid 3. I need to give the text some form of decoration as I have removed the shadow on the images that helps make the title more readable.
Thank you,
Nick
