Hi,
If it worked only with Visual Composer active, I guess that a plugin that you use, conflicts with the theme and breaks the tagdiv gallery. You will have to find out which one it is, activating your plugins one by one. Maybe it is a gallery plugin if you use one?
Thanks!
Hi,
Is it possible to delete the CSS file from the js composer plugin and add the contents to the main style sheet to improve loading times?
THanks
Hi,
I just discovered my site is showing weird characters etc. Makes it more weird as I can not see it in the pages themselves. Either in visual composer or backend editor.
http://www.powercontrol.com.au/kelco-switches/
Also there is 12 pictures on the homepage which were all linked to there pages. Now only the bottom 6 are hyper linked.
You can see from this screencast it is still hyper linked. http://screencast.com/t/EfToCtKZ
Theme version is 6.2
WP Version 4.2.4
I have disabled all plugins ( except visual composer )
Please help.
Regards
Darren
Salut,
Se poate obtine acest lucru utilizand Visual Composer, doar adauga un nou row(full width) in pagina ceva de genul – http://screencast.com/t/G29McNQD
Mersi!
Hi,
The latest version of the theme is 6.3.2 and the version of the Visual Composer provided with the theme is 4.6.2 If you want to update it please deactivate and delete the plugin – http://screencast.com/t/NQoTDtaOp0 and install it from here – http://screencast.com/t/Yvh1iXS0Lf
Thanks!
Hi,
I am finding an issue where widgets and sidebars are not displaying as they should. I am using the default settings for all posts and pages, and adding widgets to the Newspaper default sidebar – they are not displaying on Category or the actual article post page.
An example of this would be “Contextual Related Posts” widget. When added to sidebar of pages it is not displaying. Would this be clashing with the theme’s in-built related posts function ?
It appears that it is often necessary after adding a widget to have to go into each posts and page and just “update” the post or page to get anything to display correctly in the sidebar.
I am also seeing that widgets that have been added are not appearing in Visual Composer, even after checking all the settings in Visual Composer.
Any ideas ?
Many thanks

The result is the block prompt all the category (i try many combinaison and the results still the same).
Can yuo help me please ?
Kinds regards
Hi, Guys! Congrats on your amazing theme! It’s something I’ve been looking for for a long time.
I’ve installed the theme, reinstalled the VC but I can’t see your elements in the composer, neither edit the template ones. Any idea on why? Do I have to install any other plugin or sth.?
After deactivating all the plugins except Visual Composer did the trick.
But why should i de-activate all my plugins for every post to make a gallery?
Do you think regenerate thumbnail plugin is causing it take a small image instead of full images during create gallery process?
Hi Cris I really thank you ;). The easiest way is to use copy-paste :).
This was my first encounter with functions.php. Thanks for the helpful tips.
To protect the site I uses Wordfence. Do you have any advice.
My main problem is the slow background. I welcome any suggestion.

Note that some of the stuff in my functions.php list may not apply to you, for example if not using YOAST SEO plugin, you’d not need the code there. If you’re using Visual Composer for anything other than home page, you would likely not use the visual composer stuff at bottom.
Basic issues with editing functions.php are
a) edit with a true text editor, like textpad, BBEdit, or other programmer tool, *NOT* a word processor; and make sure if using Unix, you save with unix line breaks; with Windows server, you may need to save with Windows line breaks
b) make sure you don’t break end of the file — meaning, some functions.php files have a closing ?> bracket, some don’t — obviously you should put code INSIDE the closing php bracket if there is one, but *NOT* inside another query bracket — so good to make sure you’re putting it in the right place at the end of the file, but not outside a closing bracket for the file, but not inside closing bracket for another function.
c) make sure you don’t have a “service” which is trying to do the exact same things, through a dynamic re-write — meaning, if you have some kind of aggressive service re-writing your pages to remove the version numbers on end of files, my list might conflict.
My lineup of optimizations work perfectly with mod_pagespeed (e.g., comment removal and indent removal, etc.), Apache/Linux servers, current version of WP, tagdiv booster framework, YOAST SEO, and mod_SPDY.
Like anything — always keep backup, and revert back if any change to ANYTHING you do does not work as expected.
And use common sense — if you have “allow pingbacks” turned *on* in your WP admin panel — you shouldn’t use my function to turn that off on the backend 🙂
Chris Thank you for your contribution to the community.
I followed the instructions and reached grade 99/100.
When I withdrew the contents of functions.php I collapsed vps server. :(.
What is the procedure when you work with functions.php?
I noticed that the laoding time grew from 2.2 sec to 2.4 sec.
Does anyone have useful advice for mobile devices out there but I have 50. I use WP-rocket.
i put this in end of my file ( i use newspaper 6.3.2 ):

Hi guys,
I thought I would share this in case anybody had the same problem.
After upgrading to Newspaper 6 I experienced lots of problems with plugin Ultimate Add Ons for Visual Composer. Very annoying as I use it everywhere.
In case you have similar problems with this (incorrectly displaying, freezing, etc) the solution is to update to the latest version of the plugin, go to the plugin settings and under the “Scripts and Styles” tab set “Optimise CSS” and “Optimise JS” to ON.
As you were.
Hi,
You need to update the Visual Composer plugin to have this option – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately you will have to add a title there, the Visual Composer changed the code and will note recognize the default title.
Thanks!
Hi TVDinner,
Gald you’ve managed to solve it eventually.
Not sure if this applies in this regard but if the widget is available on appearance > widgets panel then it should also appear in Visual Composer’s elements/widgets section: http://screencast.com/t/cMlmGMuVOMK5 If it doesn’t you could check if it appear and can be enabled from Visual Composer’s settings: http://screencast.com/t/Gkdy87ah1
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
@tmoncada Your instagram counter works fine – http://screencast.com/t/ovSwpaQRxhl1
@r1kay Please make sure that you use the latest version of the Social Counter provided with the theme version that you use and also check this without any plugins active, leave only Visual Composer and Social Counter active, clear cache and see if you still have this problem. There is an issue with instagram counter, but we did not get any reports about fb and twitter. Also you can upgrade to the version 6 of the theme if you want – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thanks!
Hi,
I have checked your site and you have many errors in the console, so please check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer, clear cache and see if you still have this issues. If it doesn’t happen anymore activate the plugins one by one and see which one cause this, also delete all unnecessarily plugins.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that you use the full image in the gallery and not a thumb, this is the full image size that you use – http://screencast.com/t/SOaL3YYfu
I have also checked this with your full image and did not found any issues – http://screencast.com/t/xSxALJ9LMJM – http://screencast.com/t/zumZ1RgN The image is resized to fit in the container(420px height). Also you can check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer and create a new gallery then see if you still have this issue.
Thanks!
Is it possible to add a custom ad directly to post content via some shortcode?
After reading this tutorial: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ads-system-full-guide/ I know I can use Visual Composer to add a custom ad to any page and that’s fine. But what about post content?
I can always use a 3rd party WordPress plugin, but I would like to do it directly with my theme (Newsmag).
Hello, (I am native speaker spanish)
I can´t take featured image on PAGES. It´s posible to make using “Homepage post” of Visual Composer but this doesn´t show real visitors.
Help, please.
Thanks.
hi,
Thank you for your message
Unfortunately, there is still a problem.
Example http://www.test.androidtech.pl/aktualnosci/czy-tak-wyglada-galaxy-note-5/
What I did:
-I turned off all plugins except of Visual Composer
-I removed and re-installed the Visual Composer
-I removed and re-installed the theme Newspaper
-I cleaned the cache in Firefox
If you want, I will send you access to my test site?
Hi,
It may come from one of the plugins, try to disable all plugins except for Visual Composer and see if the issue is still there.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please disable all your plugins except of Visual Composer, clear cache and and see if you still have this issue. Also disable all js/css minifications. I have checked this using the latest theme version and did not found any issue on these browsers. Also you can check our demo and see if there is a problem too.
Thanks!
Hi,
On default template the sidebar will not be added automatically, you will have to add it in the page content using pagebuilder. You will have to split the row and use Widgetised sidebar block – http://screencast.com/t/ppGnRNXH9o1g or add directly Visual Composer elements there – http://screencast.com/t/m4mEG2V9pt
If you use Pagebuilder with title the sidebar will be added automatically – http://screencast.com/t/YcuuaMoVXQ or you can use full width page content(without sidebar) and add it manually like above for default template.
Hope this helps!
