I have a blog which is forChrome.com
I upgraded today from 4 to 6 and now i have troubles.
I can not configure the web site body. Where i can do it? I am trying to use visual composer but can not.
Hello,
I’ve tried everything I could but this just doesn’t work on my side.
I’m trying to have different sidebars on the Homepage and the Single Post view but they’re both using ht esame template options in the Theme Panel.
I’ve also tried to change the sidebar option on my Home page (I’m using a custom home with Visual Composer).
Still it always uses the same Default Widget for all the site areas, so I think after 20+ hours of headache It’s time now to ask for help.
P.S: I think I also found a bug with the “News Ticker Title” – was trying to change the font size for the Ticker Title here:
Blocks/Widgets Title
News Ticker
News Ticker title
So eventually I had to Firebug and write my own custom CSS for it.
I’m really dissapointed that things are not going smooth at all with this theme, seems like lots of things are bugged or at least “Not so easy to edit”.
Thanks.
Did you also increase the default memory allocated to WordPress in your wp-config.php file ? Visual Composer uses a lot of memory, and the default 40MB not enough. This is a very common issue with themes using VC, so something to try first if you had not already increased to 96MB or more (pref 128MB).
Hello Habhajan,
I have checked your website and found that the problem is caused by this image here:
http://screencast.com/t/jkiWFPiBbzv
There is a problem with the sidebar layout and it seems that the image container is stretched over the block element. Please try to rebuild your sidebar in visual composer and if you want to display the image as an ad you can use the ‘adbox’ element. You can read more about using other ads here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/using-other-ads/
I hope this helps!
P.S. You can also regenerate your thumbnails so the featured images will display properly.
Thank you!
Hi Thierry,
When you edit your page in visual composer, make sure you select one of the 2 page templates (pagebuilder + ) other than the default. If default is set, the page title and sidebar will not display.

Thank you!
Hi
You could add a specific tag for that post: http://screencast.com/t/NNQ6kZKib then use it in Visual Composer to target the post, in block settings, for every page: http://screencast.com/t/vU3GXc3g9G – http://screencast.com/t/iMj3e0yfr1fn The result would be like here: http://screencast.com/t/i6m8gtbo8
Also you can try this with a specific category.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve inspected your site and believe this is caused by theme’s lazy loading animation which’s script could be in conflict with one of your plugin’s js causing this. First please try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test this again. If you still got this issue try to turn off the lazy load animation from theme panel > template settings: http://screencast.com/t/YW1yiBDsk5Dm and test the site again.
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!
I would like to know how I can show content from a post I made at another page.
The content on the first page are of course dynamic.
And the plan is also to include this specific post on several pages.
Do I add an element from Visual Composer and somehow choose to include a post?
kind regards
Hello Sejpost,
Visual composer was updated in our latest version (6.5) If you have version 6.4 or lower, we recommend updating the theme and visual composer as well.
Thank you.
Hi,
The screenshot i provided above shows this exact thing: http://screencast.com/t/CWxh0rTwt. In visual composer, when you add a new element the settings appear by default. You can enter block settings again by clicking on the pencil icon that appears when you hover over a block.
Please read our documentation for more info on block settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hello atw101,
First, make sure you have enough posts created so there is content to be displayed. Then assign a featured image to your posts. Then, please make sure you do not disable visual composer as it is required by the theme. Disable all plugins except visual composer. If the problem is still there, try to disable lazy load animation: http://screencast.com/t/XzMt3WJtKuJ
If the problem is still there, provide a link to your site so we can take a look and figure it out.
Thank you!
If I have version 6, do I need to update visual composer?
Hello,
I recently installed the latest version of Newspaper onto a site. I set up the homepage choosing one of the suggested layouts from Visual Composer. However, the problem is that the images are not showing on the home page at all, nor the slider or its’ images.
I’ve tried
-clearing cache
-deactivating all plugins 1 by 1
How do I fix this?
Ok, I think I’m back in business now. The version of Composer that was included in my download was 4.6.2. I just upgraded to 4.7.1.1 and now it seems to be playing nicely with Facebook again. I just purchased and downloaded the bundled them on 9/21, so it’s hard to believe that one of the critical bundled plugins was that far behind on the version. Thanks for your help.
P.S. If you are looking for tabs, visual composer has a tab element as well.
Hi
By default the avatar image is centered on mobile devices, you can check that on our demo: http://screencast.com/t/X07ZAq8nUHI Try to clear all caches, deactivate the plugins, except Visual Composer and test this again, also make sure that you’re using the current theme’s version available on themeforest which is V2.2.
Let me now how it goes and if the problem persist please provide your site url so I can inspect it closer.
Thanks!
Hello Thierry,
Please disable all of your plugins except visual composer and see if the problems are still there. Sometimes these errors come from plugins. Normally the sidebar should move under your content on mobile devices, not in it’s original position, so the fact that it is sticky or not does not matter.
Try it without plugins and let me know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi
To add elements from Visual Composer after pagination you need to edit page-pagebuilder-latest.php file and use do_shortcode function like here: http://screencast.com/t/CrUCFPyG1v3 – http://screencast.com/t/UIx2rR45k1Mm
<div class="td-container">
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_3 limit="6"][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?>
</div>First you have to create your layout in VC then switch in Backend editor, copy the code and paste it inside the function like in the above example.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hello andiruleu,
You can do that by making the sidebar ‘smart’. You have to add the td-ss-row class to the row which contains the sidebar in visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/akddg5Q86H
You can read more about smart sidebars in our documentation here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/
Thanks.
Hello ppcker,
You can set your homepage to any page from here: http://screencast.com/t/xpKatNSTG
Create your page to your prefference in visual composer and set it as homepage or edit the existing homepage: http://screencast.com/t/XXaDY7cRR – it will be marked as Front Page in the pages section.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have problem with compatibility of visual composer with the theme.
Everything goes fine, i was configure the home page with visual composer, and after a page save, the home page break up and goes with full width without reason.
Its seems visual composer lost the margins of boxed version!
I was delete everything, and setup everything again, but in second time, with another reason, when i insert a new article, after the save, the home page(which use visual composer) breaks again.
The other pages who don’t use visual composer working fine.
You can see the screenshots below:
1)Home Page – Use visual composer: http://www.screencast.com/t/qliMz7Opgo
2)Single Article page with sidebar: http://www.screencast.com/t/LuEKVbgCeLb
Can you check that?Do you have any update of theme or visual composer to fix that bug?
Thanks.
Hi,
Please note that it might take a while until your ads to appear(even a few days) and you can try this also without any plugins active, leave only Visual Composer active, clear cache and check it.
I have checked your site and the adsense code is there and the theme just make it responsive and the ad will fill the available space. You can also test your ad code using a WordPress text widget to place the ad into your page or sidebar, if your ad code works/was approved this widget should display the ad.
Thanks!
Hi,
The colors supported by the button shortcodes are the same colors used for button element from Visual Composer – http://screencast.com/t/RxogkveK that’s why I said that I think is more easy to create it in the page. So if you want to use the button shortcode in post content, just choose your button and set a specific color(from those supported) – http://screencast.com/t/1OA6AlTs – http://screencast.com/t/Re5dGI1oEn7
Thanks!
Hello Jorge,
I assume you are talking about the related articles title. It can be changed from the Theme panel-> Translations:
http://screencast.com/t/dRPOo8OkXIs
Result: http://screencast.com/t/4t6p3Pb8Rl
If you use a visual composer block element named that way, you will have to change it’s name from block settings when editing the page: http://screencast.com/t/uszshkH4Ko
Thank you
Hi,
The quotes on blocks appear only on blocks used in one column. When you create a page using Visual Composer you can split the row – http://screencast.com/t/0wh7KX1GVs – http://screencast.com/t/fWhbPZStVwot
You can use custom fields instead of excerpt if you want this. This is how the theme was designed to display excerpt on modules, I guess it will not be changed soon(Newspaper 6 was released just for few months).
Thanks!
