Hi Emil,
forgot to tell: I ‘ve already tried with all plugins (except Visual Composer) off. Tried it again now -> same result, i.e. it looks the same as above.

Hi,
Try to disable minification, clear the cache and disable all plugins, enable only Visual Composer and check if the issue is still there. Let me know how it goes.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
It seems to be an css issue, maybe coming from a plugin, try to disable all plugins, clear the cache, enable only the Visual Composer plugin and see if the issue is still there. If you use any CDN purge all files, it may deliver older version for some of the files.
I’ve tried to look on your page but i get a redirect. Let me know how it goes.
For the pagespeed issues check this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/
And the discussion here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/pagespeed/
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
Thanks Christopher!
@DigitalEmpathy Considering the fact that you have the twenty fourteen theme active here: http://screencast.com/t/QsEIz8nAr I believe you need to install and activate the theme from appearance > themes panel: http://screencast.com/t/ndflayPjPUSp so make sure you install the theme like this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/installation/ then activate it, install Visual Composer plugin and check again.
You can also find this info along with more useful informations in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-documentation/
Please let me know if you still can’t manage to get this done.
Thanks
Hi,
I have checked your site and noticed that you have some js errors in your console: http://screencast.com/t/RBVxMDSj
Please make sure that you disable all plugins leaving active just Visual Composer and also empty cache and/or purge files if you use any cache plugins or CDN host services and try again.
Please let me know if you still have this type of issues after doing this as I have also tested this and found no issues with it.
Thanks

Hi,
@dexter Please make sure that you disable all plugins laving just Visual Composer and Social Counter and also empty cache and/or purge files if you use any cache plugins or CDN host services and try again.
Please let me know if you still have this type of issues after doing this.
Thanks
Hi,
That should not happen. Try to check if this is not due to some other plugin you have first and disable all of then leaving just Visual Composer active then empty cache/purge files and check again.
If this doesn’t help try to delete and re install the Visual Composer plugin like this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/ and make sure you install it from the plugins folder that came within your theme files.
Please let me know if you still have issue with this!
Thanks
Thanks for the response, I have just deactivated all plugins except Visual Composer, and if you go to the website on mobile it still looks exactly the same, All content gone on chrome and content overlapping on Firefox?
What else can I attempt?
Thanks so much for the help
Best bet is to turn off the plugins, except for Visual Composer, and then check page, then switch each back on to find culprit. Often it’s a conflicting social media widget of some kind, or something loading jquery again, or something trying to over-ride the themes’ built in mobile layout.
Hi,
Unfortunately the page author box can’t be added via Visual Composer. You can use the Authors box element of Visual Composer but it not the same: http://screencast.com/t/lX0Miqw9
You could also customize the “Authors box” element and add modify it to show the authors bio as you like from here: http://screencast.com/t/99TrqJAp5
You can see how the author box was build here: http://screencast.com/t/6DqWdxNNgp
Unfortunately you will need custom work for this which we cannot offer at this time as we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support. You can always get a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.
Thanks
Hi,
Could please provide more details about the error you have as I have also tested this and tried to recreate it and haven’t found any issues with this.
Please let me know and also make sure that this isn’t happening due to some other plugins you are using so make sure you disable all plugins laving just Visual Composer active and also empty cache and/or purge files if you use any cache plugins or CDN host services and try again.
Thanks

Hi,
1. I see you also managed to find and change the date format.
2. I’m not sure I understand, you refer to this counters: http://screencast.com/t/MbC1s0ryuym
Please let me know and also provide a link to a post that has comments as I haven’t managed to find one.
3. You can change the template like showed below and move the latest articles to the beginning of the page and the page builder below the articles.
Edit the page-pagebuilder-latest.php file and move this part: http://screencast.com/t/44ijcHGT to the bottom of the file like this: http://screencast.com/t/Iqj80diz2H
After this use the “Pagebuilder + latest articles + pagination” template and add widgets using Visual Composer.
Thanks
Hello! Is there a way to show the author bio using the authors box element in visual composer?
Using Newspaper v. 3.0.1
Hi,
First please make sure that this isn’t happening due to some other plugins you are using so make sure you disable all plugins laving just Visual Composer and Social Counter and also empty cache and/or purge files if you use any cache plugins or CDN host services and try again.
What theme version do you use as we have included the fixed version of the plugin into the latest theme update 4.6 so if you do not using it we suggest that you get the latest theme version from themeforest and you should find the fixed social counter plugin’s version within the theme’s files in the plugins folder.
Thanks
Hi,
The error seems to come from Visual Composer. Make sure you have the latest version, disable the rest of the plugins and see if the error is still there.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
Please make sure that this isn’t happening due to some other plugins you are using so make sure you disable all plugins laving just Visual Composer and Social Counter and also empty cache and/or purge files if you use any cache plugins or CDN host services and try again.
If this issue is till present please send your site’s URL so I can inspect this.
Thanks
Hi,
Try to disable all plugins, enable only Visual Composer and check if the issue is still there.
If you use cdn or external cache clear/purge it.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
First of all please make sure that you use the video playlist right and that you add your videos like this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/video-playlist-newsmag/
If you did set this right then make sure that this is not happening due to some other plugins you use so deactivate all plugins leaving just Visual Composer and Social Counter plugins active then empty cache and purge files and try again.
I have also tested this using the latest theme version (1.1) and found no issue with this: http://screencast.com/t/lFwdDjOyZrL1
Please let me know and also provide your site’s URL.
Thanks

Hi,
31px is the minimum height of the Visual Composer container so in order to set a space smaller than 30px in height you need to modify the value for container’s minimum height: http://screencast.com/t/fQ07qkPXe
You can do this differently though and simply add a margin or padding for the container you use above and to do that you can set a custom, css class for your visual composer element and add padding or margin using custom css: like this:
* http://screencast.com/t/BKrIYeFs6m
* http://screencast.com/t/CqTw2slf
For text block border please make sure you also set this the border style, like this: http://screencast.com/t/tlXCqD7fPS
Thanks

Hi,
The fonts works with Pagebuilder with Page Title template. Also work with Default Template to, but without page builder(Visual Composer) only plain text and shortcodes. If you add elements with page builder the fonts won’t work because this is used to create homepages and will brake the typography of the blocks/modules/elements.
Thanks for the message!
HI, to make this easier to find, I’m posting this in one place.
This applies to moving from Newspaper to Newsmag, but could also apply to moving from any other theme using Visual Composer, which can be tricky.
At bottom is also a how-to if you already borked (crashed) your site and are getting server 500 error or similar.
======== Christopher’s how-to theme migration =============
Try this:
1) make backup of your site files, as per usual good practices; use tools to export your database from WP panel. Backup images.
Clear cache.
2) make sure you’re running latest version of WordPress (4.1); v 3.9x has cross-site scripting vulnerability; v4.0 has bugs, fixed in 4.1.
3) switch to default theme (e.g., twenty-twelve); do this before disabling visual composer!!!!!
Clear cache again, as applicable.
4) disable ALL plugins
5) DELETE the original theme folder, delete the original plugins for theme (TD speed booster, TD social, Visual Composer)
Then follow my posts on best way to install theme:
================================================
Make sure you upload only the main theme files; don’t install the “all files” zip from ThemeForest… that has docs, psd files, plugins, etc.
You want to install the smaller of the two files on Themeforest, if you’re installing via theme panel with .zip.
BEST WAY TO INSTALL WP THEMES:
Ideal way is still to
1) unzip theme folder “Newsmag” on your HD
2) upload via FTP/SFTP to your /wp-content/themes/ folder
3) upload the plugins unzipped to /wp-content/plugins/
4) switch to default theme from your old theme [should already be done for migration]
5) turn off *all* running plugins [should already be done for migration]
6) clear your cache(s), turn off caching (!),
7) activate the Visual Composer plugin
8) activate the new Newsmag theme
9) launch the theme panel
10) reactivate only the plugins you 100% need to make sure they work (some plugins WILL NOT WORK properly with WP 4.01 until you update the plugins!).
Clear the cache in your WEB BROWSER FULLY and restart web browser; this clears any CSS/Java used by your previous theme admin, and theme, so that you see the new CSS/JS properly (seriously, this is cause for huge number of “my new theme doesn’t load right” or “admin panel doesn’t have any boxes!” errors).
If you’re running WordPress older than 4.0 be aware there is a very serious cross-site scripting vulnerability (e.g., WP 3.9.2). You should be running WP 4.0+ to use this theme properly.
This is standard practice for switching to a brand new theme and good habit to get into doing it this way to ensure you clear cobwebs on old, and cleanly move to new.
Hope that helps! 🙂
Chris
==========
ADVANCED USERS AND WP-CONFIG FILE:
if you or somebody else optimized your site for better PageSpeed score and increase dbase efficiency, by editing the wp-config.php file to add absolute paths to the theme folder, you will need to remove that line prior to doing any theme switch. Some people forget this step and immediately get a server error trying to change themes in the WP admin panel. You should be making backups of your wp-config.php folder periodically anyway and never hurts to open it and view from time to time.
===========
SITE RESCUE IF ALREADY CRASHED
f you already borked your install and are getting server 500 error or similar you will need to do common procedure to reset WordPress:
1) login via FTP, manually delete both Newspaper and Newsmag themes so that all that is in theme folder is default themes; this forces WordPress to restart with default theme
2) manually delete the Visual Composer plugin so there is no VC folder in plugins
3) rename your plugins folder to pluginsX
4) login successfully
5) go to theme panel and SELECT your default twenty-twelve theme to CLEAR the prior selection in dbase of the Newspaper or Newsmag theme no longer running
6) logout
7) via FTP or server side file manager, rename plugins back to plugins
8) login and make sure site is working
9) then do CLEAN install of the Newsmag theme, plugins
(admin feel free to add this to docs if you wish)
