Hello chjeff,
If you want to change the background image at Newspaper Travel Theme Edition, you can set it from Visual Composer. This kind of theme edition uses a stretch row from Visual Composer and Parallax with fade and you can change the image like this: http://screencast.com/t/zjed2bSgrQ
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hello solidoes,
I’ve tested on my side and everything works properly. Please try to disable all the active plugins, except Visual Composer, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and try it again.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hi
I’ve test this o my side with the last theme version, V 2.3.4, and works fine: http://screencast.com/t/l2u7CpgTFm Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test again.
If the problem persist please provide your site url so I can take a closer look.
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately I cannot provide an accurate answer as Visual Composer Extensions has not been tested with the theme, sorry!
Thanks!
Hello billal,
I suppose that you are referring to block title tabs, as I saw in your screenshot. The name of this, you have control from Block Settings within Visual Composer. If you want to remove the tabs, please follow the steps of this screenshot -> http://screencast.com/t/qRxjwUuEoi -> the result -> http://screencast.com/t/lPMCNaSjreL
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
If is not what you mean, please provide more details about this.
Thank you for the message!
Hi
I’ve test this on my side with the current theme version available on themeforest, V 2.3.4 and works fine: http://screencast.com/t/LpIU70ph – http://screencast.com/t/pJ4pBBPT – http://screencast.com/t/nfgFNGjXE
Please make sure that you’re using the last theme version, clear all caches, deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and test again.
If you still have this issue please provide a link where we can inspect it closer.
Thanks!
Hi
The settings for blog template can be found in theme panel here: http://screencast.com/t/ekMu3uh6JgT
You can display your latest article on a static page by setting this in page settings: http://screencast.com/t/9tXDdG4bLF or from block settings: http://screencast.com/t/8PxmQQ2KxB
I can’t say for sure if using the blog template will improve your seo. Basically if you’re using the pagebuilder+latest as a page template http://screencast.com/t/6JKuFKf5Q without any blocks added in Visual Composer part, you get the same functionality like the one of the blog template. However you have the advantage that if sometimes you want to use block on your page they can be added here: http://screencast.com/t/DgLPpa5cYqKu
Hope this help.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please try to disable all your plugins except of Visual Composer, clear cache and purge your files if you use CDN then check if you still have this issue. I have checked your site and you have some errors in the console – http://screencast.com/t/IKenDb7EZPo that may cause this, usually these errors are caused by plugins that conflict with the theme’s javascript.
Also please make sure you have updated the theme properly and also update the plugins that come with the theme files(VC, Social Counter..)
Thanks!

Hello,
I’ve performed update locally, and after on live version, all works fine.
First updated js composer to 4.9, after wordpress 4.4.
So, Newspaper 4.6.3 and WordPress 4.4. works fine.
thank’s a lot!
Hi guys.
I lost the black page template you’ve given to me after the updating the theme from V4 to V6.
Here’s where you gave me that template: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/creating-a-landing-page-with-visual-composer/
I want the same thing for V6.
When I insert code into a new “Raw html” element through visual composer onto my post it will scramble the code into gibberish as soon as the post saves and the page reloads. When the page reloads the raw html elements are missing and visual composer stops allowing editing of the elements. The subtitle will then be overlay with gibberish. example below.
I am trying to insert amazon associates html code. It usually works but has stopped since the update.
How it looks when setup in VC

I tried deactivating the plugins and still I have the same problem . I don’t use visual composer for posts. My main problem is that when I create a post, the Kite One font works but the bold style when selected doesn’t show in bold. Anyway, I don’t mind trying with another google font.
By Toolbar toggle I mean this (see the 2 photos)
http://learn.wpeditpro.com/force-toggle-toolbar/
I want to have a selection of around 5 google fonts available in the toggle toolbar, that I can chose the font and also the size for every new post. Is there any way I can incorporate these 2 options to the toggle toolbar from the theme panel or do I need a plugin and if yes, what plugin?
Make sure your settings for the social media elements are correct.
Try disabling all your plugins except for visual composer.
Clear all your site/cdn caching if spplicable.
Check your page with the browser console (F12) for any errors.
Hello,
My website is very slow when using newspaper theme, it takes over 60 seconds to fully load!
Speed test pic when using newspaper theme: http://i.imgur.com/XiDqzjW.png 64 seconds to load!
Speed test pic when using tweenty sixteen theme: http://i.imgur.com/dOWinkn.png 0.8 seconds to load!
This obviously shows that there is something wrong with newspaper theme.
I am using Godaddy Managed WordPress hosting. It seems the theme is broken and does not work with managed wordpress hosting the way it should. (I find this very ironic, since its WORDPRESS hosting.)
What can I do to fix this problem?
I’m also getting random erros when trying to upload images to media library. There is also no preview thumbnails in my media library for pictures that were uploaded when using newspaper theme. Again, this only happens with newspaper theme. If I switch to any other theme like tweenty sixteen everything works perfectly.
(Also, the only plugin I use is visual composer.)
Please help.
You need to setup your “page” how you want it in the WP page;
use the preset “styles” which you can import without content …
or build your own with the visual composer by building a page, creating rows, and columns of content you want to feature on your home page; then set that as a static page from the WordPress admin panel.
See the theme docs on how to do all of this right side of page >>>>
Hello Bogdan
I don’t want to double post, but I have to get an answer to this.
I recently installed the latest build from you all and a did a fresh new install of Welcome to Newspaper V 6.6.3.
In the Visual Composer, I do not see this area specified in the red rectangular box:

How can I get this to show up as shown in the YouTube video you suggested above?
Hi,
My site is BitcoinWarrior.net.
I upgraded from Newspaper 4 to 6.6.3 today. At first, some plugin incompatibilities broke the website. I got it back, and have been trying to fix number of other issues.
The biggest issue I’m having right now is that I can’t get my images to load on the home page or in the posts. I saw someone else was having these problems and turned off lazy loading to no avail.
Please let me know what I can do.
Also, I would really like to know how to get the sidebar to go all the way down my homepage when I’m using visual composer.
Mark
Nevermind about the images. They’re back for seemingly no reason.
I’d still like to know about the sidebar, though.
Hi
I have tried to setup megam enu based on your instructions https://forum.tagdiv.com/mega-menu/ in one of my test site http://www.wpdiv.ml and locate the mega menu as illustrated in the screenshot http://prntscr.com/9kvd0q
But mega menu shows in rows instead of columns. Here is the custom page http://www.wpdiv.ml/mm/ which used to setup mega menu using visual composer custom menu element http://prntscr.com/9kvcjf
What i did wrong and why mega menu not showing in columns?
Expecting your reply
Make sure you
a) have comments turned on in the WP admin panel and check the expiration for how many days back you want to allow comments
b) make sure comments are turned on for posts in theme panel
c) make sure the box for allowing comments is checked YES on the post page where you are not seeing a comment form
d) with some kinds of custom posts, or perhaps an error for a custom page built with the visual composer, you might have error on page causing it to not appear
— tagdiv will likely ask you to provide link to an example post where you’re having the problem, once you check a/b/c above 🙂
Will Newspaper work with the Visual Composer Extensions?
http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-extensions/7190695
I am specifically interested in the TimeLine page they offer.
Hi,
I also checked this and did not found any issues, please clear all caches and check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer and see if it still happen.
If the issue persist please paste also a link to this topic when you will send the email as I suggested in the other topic.
Thanks!
Hi,
@capitano83 – As Chris S said try to remove all plugins (Visual Composer, Social Counter, Speed Booster and Rev Slider) and install the new ones from Newsmag -> Plugins – http://screencast.com/t/MjPANfW3W
Also try to disable the rest of the plugins and see if the issue is still there. If the issue is gone enable the plugins one by one until you find the one which causes this issue.
Thank you!
Hello again @andrei_luca
I was messing around with everything trying to figure out a way to make that error go away and it looks like I was able to do it. When I used the Jetpack shortcode to put that subscription box on my main page using a ‘WP Text’ block in the Visual Composer, I was getting that error in the browser console. So what I did was switch that ‘WP Text’ block to just a standard text block and put the shortcode in there. Once I made that change, the error no longer appeared.
I also noticed that I had my Google tracking code on my website like three different ways: I’d put it in the appropriate space in the Newsmag Theme Panel, in a Google Analytics plugin, and then there was a third plugin too. I’ve removed the third plugin, but I like the stats that the Google Analytics plugin gives me on my Dashboard so I’d prefer not to lose it. Will having my tracking code on my site twice prevent it from working correctly?
Also, now that there are no errors in the browser console, does that mean that my Google Analytics will start working correctly? How can I tell if it’s working? It took like 2 weeks for my bounce rate to drop down to 0.5%, which is when I knew something wasn’t right. Will I have to wait 2 weeks to see if it goes back up to a more reasonable number, or is there another way to see if my analytics are working again?
Really appreciate everyone’s help with this.
Hi,
Please provide a link to your website pointing at the problem so we can inspect it and maybe come up with a solution. Please also try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and check the grid again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
