Hi,
Please make sure that is not a confusion between Newsmag ver 1.7 and Newspaper ver 4.6.2.
If you need to update your Newspaper theme please make a backup of your current theme installation so you can revert in case of something goes wrong. Please follow this guide to update using FTP – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-theme/ and upload also the plugins that come with the theme files from the /pluginss folder – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
If you have custom modifications to the theme files you will need to make those again in new theme files. You will have to upload the theme like a new theme, you will have to delete your current theme folder(after you make the backup).
You can also follow this topic, it may help like, already Christopher suggested: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-guide-to-moving-from-newspaper-to-newsmag/
Thanks!
Hi,
Please check your page source an you will see that the og: tags are duplicated: http://screencast.com/t/85RLqHGfXs – http://screencast.com/t/r7aVxhD6DHwD that’s why you have this error.
Please try this without any plugins active(make sure that you deactivate plugins that affect this meta og:), leave just Visual Composer and SEO by Yoast active, clear cache and check again if you still have this issue on facebook debugger.
Thanks!
Well, same images are loaded depending on viewport, so the CSS only changes the @media CSS styles for the size of the view, it doesn’t change the photos on/off .. so if your images are not working for me in IE11/Win74 on desktop, and not for you on mobile, that isn’t really a “responsive” issue … which is just CSS.
CSS also doesn’t change from one day to the next, so unless your server got some update, you updated a plugin where there is now some conflict, etc., the CSS can’t suddenly cause a site to stop working one day and then not the next … it’s just style classes such as “font size 10” vs “font size 16” etc based on viewport.
You might need to try clearing all your caches, turn off plugins except for visual composer, clear your mobile device cache, etc., and revisit.
(Oh, you’re not seeing on desktop either …. might be caching issue … dunno …)

Hi,
Please disable any js/css minification, this can cause issues as it may facebook doesn’t recognize og:. Also disable all plugins, leave just Visual Composer and Seo by Yoast active, empty cache and then check if you still have this issue.
Thanks!
Hello, this is my first time ever trying to build a website, so forgive me if I sound like I don’t know what I am talking about. I downloaded the Newspaper theme and the Visual Composer plugin, and what I noticed was in certain Youtube tutorials, there was an option that people had called “Front page editor”. I do not have that option on my dashboard. I contacted the Visual Composer customer service staff and they sent me this in an email….
“The issue is because there is an inbuilt version of Visual Composer (or the related code) present in your theme which is overriding the standalone plugin version and hence causing the issue. You will have to get rid of it. I would advise you to do so with the help of theme author, otherwise you might loose the extra elements added by him. Once this is done, you can install the standalone plugin and it will work fine. kindly check.”
How do I go about handling this issue?
Hi,
I also tested this and did not find any issues: http://screencast.com/t/TkrGGSlGnec – http://screencast.com/t/NXOGtUt7hr0
Please make sure that you check this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active, maybe there is a css conflict as I find this fixed width – http://screencast.com/t/NGxhz2pZ also please make sure that you don’t have any custom css that can affect this.
Thanks!

reply to myself!….. just adding td-ss-row to the css row in visual composer.
Hi, is it possible to make a sidebar created in the visual composer part of the page behave like a smart sidebar?
I tried adding some css to the columns but does not seem to work (td-ss-main-sidebar, td-ss-main-content).
So I presume I would have to move it to PHP right?
Hi,
I also tested this using the latest theme version and did not found any issues. Please make sure that you also use the latest theme version(4.6.2) and update the plugins that come with the theme files.
Use this guide if you need to update(FTP method): https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ and you can fins theme’s plugins in the /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Also you can try this without any plugins active, leave just Visual Composer active, empty cache and check if you still have this issue.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure that you use Big Slide properly on one row, I have checked your site and seems that you use it in two columns: http://screencast.com/t/MSuAZn0H5ab Also if does not appear please filter another category, just to see if it works.
1. Please try this custom css in Theme Panel > Custom CSS: http://screencast.com/t/q22b4NdUk4
.ajde_evcal_calendar .calendar_header {
border-bottom: 2px solid black;
}
.ajde_evcal_calendar #evcal_head.calendar_header #evcal_cur {
background-color: black;
color: white !important;
font-size: 22px !important;
padding: 0 5px 1px;
}
2. Please use Chrome inspector tool to inspect and change the font via custom css: http://screencast.com/t/burWdY67 Also for post title font(tagdiv blocks) use option from Theme Panel > Custom Typography – http://screencast.com/t/fIch5iU7uLyj and for other widgets you will need to change that via custom css – http://screencast.com/t/C8o68GcjNLsl
For load more button font you will have to use css: http://screencast.com/t/BsYdtEL55
.block-child-cats a{
font-family: Roboto;
}
.widget_categories ul li a{
font-family: Ubuntu;
}
.td-load-more-wrap {
font-family: Roboto ;
}
3. Please edit a module that use excerpt, take a look how is made and copy excerpt to the module that you want to add it – http://screencast.com/t/d0fagpyMjF also maybe you will need some css customization.
4. Please try this without any plugins active, leave only Visual Composer plugin enabled, also clear cache an check if you still have this issue.
5. Please use this custom css for this: http://screencast.com/t/jhsNTU3p
.home .widget_categories ul li a .td-cat-no{
display: none;
}
Thanks!
I think you have to make a category page template with visual composer, but haven’t done that myself.
I have the Newspaper template, and I am editing the homepage with Visual Composer (backend editor, can’t seem to get the frontend editor to work, but that’s another story…)
I have created different blocks, but for some reason only some of them (block 7) will get the right font that I set up in the template’s custom typography. Block 6 and 10 won’t change from the default font, although I changed ALL of the fonts options in custom typography to “Georgia” to make sure I didn’t miss one.
I was thinking this could be fixed in the HTML editor, but that doesn’t seem to exist in wordpress anymore?
Please help!
See the theme docs on how to build home page.
You start a new page, and use the visual composer which loads automatically.
You add rows, and modules to a page, then that page can be set as your home page.
Hi,
Edit your homepage and use this template: http://screencast.com/t/Zr5Sjz3Xprc the with visual composer add a block and set it with infinite load or with load more button http://screencast.com/t/c322Au4t1tDb
Thanks!
Hi,
The latest article section came from the page template here: http://screencast.com/t/Y7eYMvQjeEOF just edit your homepage.
To add more section above use the Visual Composer(page builder).
Also here is the Theme documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I have a new problem with inserting a text box with the virtual composer in a wp page. When I try to do it the text in the box in edit mode is white text on white background. If I mark it with the mouse I can see the text and if I save the box the text is black on the page. Only in the text editor I cant see the text.
Any suggestions?
Thanks
When I click in the backend editor on the character of “Visuel Composer,” opens the website “http://vc.wpbakery.com/?utm_campaign=VCplugin_header&utm_source=vc_user&utm_medium=backend_editor”.
Where can I work in Visuel Composer?
I believe you can change that in the visual composer under the “edit” block, there is a field to set your own custom title like “Book News” or similar. 🙂
Hi,
The file from the root of the theme, including the header.php file in which you can find the head tag can be overwritten via child theme so you can use it to alter it: forum.tagdiv.com/child-theme-documentation/
I understand, it might occur due to cache so make sure you test it without any other plugins active, just the Visual Composer plugin, empty all caches, and also purge files if you use cdn then test again.
If this still happens please provide wp-access so we can take a closer look at this and send us you wp-admin login credentials at contact@tagdiv.com and also provide a link to this tread so we know who you are.
Thanks
Hi,
Please try this without any plugins active, leave only Visual Composer plugin active, also empty cache and disable any js/css minification and check if you still have this issue.
Thanks!
Hi,

Thanks!
Hi guys, back with more need of assistance. I am trying to add a Facebook remarketing pixel to the <head></head> section, but I don’t want to edit Newspaper header.php file directly, is there any other way to add it? I am, of course, using a child theme.
Another thing, I’m having a bit of trouble with a visual composer item: youtube video playlist. On the backend, its been added, on the frontend, it just doesn’t show up. Can anyone help me debug this?
notes: -it was working perfectly, just disappeared one day.
-we installed sumome plugin for clicks heatmaps, but after we noticed it made the playlist disappear, we deactivated it.
-playlist came back for 1 day
-we deleted sumome and other unused plugins just in case.
-playlist never came back
