If 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)

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:
if you or somebody else optimized your site for better PageSpeed score and increase dbase efficiency, by editing the wop-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.

Hi,
I would like to have different header color on every widget I have in my theme.
Plz check http://www.iserres.gr
i want the weather widjet to have purple line, same as the label, not blue which is the default of the theme
first i created a class on visual composer named “kairos” and then i save on custom css settings the code
.kairos {
position: relative;
font-family: ‘Roboto Condensed’, sans-serif;
border-bottom: 2px solid #8289C1;
}
.kairos span,
.kairos label {
/* label is for jetpack */
background-color: #8289C1;
border-bottom: 2px solid #8289C1;
}
i figure that the border-bottom line wich is purple is shown at the end of the widget and not at the end of the label
so the line is still blue
any suggestions how to fix this??
Basically i want every widjet to have its unique color (label and line) and i try to find a formula
thanks in advance
You may want to read up on how to use WordPress from the WordPress Codex; you *can* simply rename the theme folder and CSS name for the theme; which is how it’s done for web development, such as for a client, or better security (we do that here, changing theme name to sitename). If you’re comfortable editing the functions.php file, then changing the theme name is done simply by editing the style.css file which is where WP picks up the theme “name.”
Note it won’t change the theme style classes so somebody can very easily “figure out” which theme you’re actually using, if not the version.
Are you removing all the versioning from your site using the commonly available code to put at bottom of functions.php? That is also recommended to hide versions of WP, and also visual composer (see my separate post on how to also hide that code).
TO THE POINT (sorry!):
You can remove that “theme credit” code from functions.php without anything breaking, but be aware it makes it harder if you ask for tech support in the future if the admin here can’t figure out which version of theme you’re using when looking at your page source to debug any of your possible problems with CSS, customizations or running plugins, etc. If you’re comfortable in remembering to always “state” which version you’re using (and keep track of that somewhere), when needing support, you should be fine. 🙂
We actually use mod_pagespeed which just removes *all* commenting for faster page loading, which is recommended if your hosting provider offers that.
You can also further optimize the install by placing the explicit paths to the new name theme folder in your functions.php folder once you’re “set in stone” (obviously if you switch to another theme from admin, it may break) and also the site name URL, but that’s a bit advanced. Research the WP Codex on how to do many things like this (some of that is in my long winded comments in the Newspaper forum under the “Pagespeed” sticky topic).
Hope that helped, versus annoyed 🙂
Switch back to default theme; delete the Newsmag theme folder; delete the visual composer folder in /wp-content/plugins
Follow the install instructions here
https://forum.tagdiv.com/installation-newsmag/
Best method is to install via FTP;
where you upload the unzipped theme and manually upload the plugins. Good thing to learn if new to you; as it’s the best way to manage WP sites where sometimes “permissions” preclude install from the WP panel. Basically what can happen is that WordPress might not have “permission” to install things.
Update: I was originally using “Default Template” with Visual Composer.
When I switched to Pagebuilder with Page Title, the fonts show up properly. Hope that helps. This minor issue seems ok now although I suspect that’s it’s still not working right with Default Template.

Hi,
Try to disable all plugins, enable only Visual Composer and check if the issue is still there.
It may also come from the server settings, if the issue is still there please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com , specify the issue or paste a link to this conversation and provide wp-admin and ftp access so i can take a look.
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
I’ve tested this on my side and it seems to work fine – http://screencast.com/t/1LsyweweZgh0 (i used load more – block 2).
Try to disable all plugins, enable only visual composer and check if the issue is still there.
If it is please provide more details, like what block/settings you use, page settings etc.
Thank you, Emil G.
The changelog in Newsmag 1.1 says:
“improvement: added slider auto play feature”
But I dont see any option in Visual Composer or theme options to do that?

by tagDiv 2014 🙂 | http://tagdiv.com | Our portfolio
Note the “remove_action” section is always useful… note it refers to “visual composer” and “meta data” … this removes the comment printed in the rendered page where it shows “created with visual composer 4.3” or whatever. Annoying.
So, basically that code I posted has (3) sections
1) remove general versioning from normal version strings; might not work on all the tagdiv speedbooster enqued stuff
2) change default thumbnail compression level (default in WP is 90, which is for quality, not speed or best practices, which is the WP mindset — better vs fast …. where 70 would be better default, frankly). 50 works. I think we ended up with 60 on some sites for some odd reason (I think ’60’ worked better with mod_pagespeed on our server for WebP conversion or something). Anything is better than 90!
3) hide the visual composer comment string.
You can actually find all my various pagespeed rantings from the past year on the Newspaper forum in the pagespeed sticky post if you want the whole shebang of stuff I do. Luckily TagDiv put a bunch of that into the standard theme docs now, and they already knew most of that from optimizing the demo sites anyway.
If you want an extra little boost you can also locally host gravatars and also optimize your wp-config file; see the Newspaper forum sticky topic, and simply start at end and work backwards to see all my special tweeks, if curious. I think later in the hundreds of posts I would often “resummarize” things, as well as add tweaks for the gravatars, and such. No point in repeating all of that here again. 🙂

Hi,
Regarding problem one, please make sure that you enabled the smart sidebar first like this: http://screencast.com/t/U2R5qfOx and if you use the visual composer to add your sidebar or build it you have to add this td-ss-row css class to the row in which you add the sidebar or you build it, should look something like this: http://screencast.com/t/q3K0xMqcQByH or you simply build you page using VC and set it to use a sidebar: http://screencast.com/t/gPpZ0jSPKe and make sure you have smart sidebar active and this should do it.
Regarding second problem please note that unfortunately you can’t set infinite scroll to latest articles section.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi,
You can use this class of the Visual Composer RAW Html element: http://screencast.com/t/3Zm6ZDhYCqw
.wpb_raw_html iframe {
place your style here..
}
Or since you have added the iframe using raw html code the you can edit that code and add it into a container with a unique class.
Unfortunately either way you will need custom work for this and if you don’t know how to do it yourself we suggests to get someone to do it for you.
Hope this helps!
Thanks
Hi,
I have checked your site and seems that you also have some errors in your console: http://screencast.com/t/cp8T026vnZUL
A plugin could cause this so please make sure you deactivate all plugin leaving just Visual Composer enabled the empty cache and purge files if you use any cache or CDN plugins then check again, and also make sure that you check you console for errors.
Please let me know what you find.
Thanks
I’m looking for a way to compress each thumbnail to a different quality size, that would help a lot, thou I’, not good at coding. :p
What does this part of code do?
add_action('init', 'myoverride', 100);
function myoverride() {
remove_action('wp_head', array(visual_composer(), 'addMetaData'));
}
Hi,
I have created a Home page base on your instruction.
My objective is to achieve an infinite scrolling of 2/3 column of “Latest article” on the left and a 1/3 column of smart sidebar with Ads and “Most recent posts”.
Problem 1 using Visual Composer
Using the Backend editor, I can create an infinite scrolling using “Block 12” but I can’t seem to find any way to add a “Smart Sidebar” to the right of “Block 12”.
Problem 2 using Page Builder + Latest Article
Now I can have a smart sidebar on the right, the problem now is how do I made the latest article scroll infinitely?
Please advice.
Thanks
Regards,
Dan
You can avoid CSS import by not using a child theme.
You can remove query strings by using the functions I have previously recommended for adding to your functions.php file. You can also optimize your thumbnails by editing your functions.php file to set higher compression level for WP, and then run the “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin.
Add these to bottom of your functions.php file, for one example:
function remove_cssjs_ver( $src ) {
if( strpos( $src, '?ver=' ) )
$src = remove_query_arg( 'ver', $src );
return $src;
}
add_filter( 'style_loader_src', 'remove_cssjs_ver', 10, 2 );
add_filter( 'script_loader_src', 'remove_cssjs_ver', 10, 2 );
add_filter( 'jpeg_quality', create_function( '', 'return 50;' ) );
add_action('init', 'myoverride', 100);
function myoverride() {
remove_action('wp_head', array(visual_composer(), 'addMetaData'));
}
You can optimize your site following the documentation for this theme:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-speed-guide/
I’m doing this right now…. it’s not terribly hard. You can save some of your custom CSS, but redoing the home page, redoing the ads, and setting up sidebar modules does need to be redone.
Biggest issue is making sure you switch off the old theme, switch off all plugins, fully delete the old Newspaper plugins from server, and do fresh install with the new theme; don’t try to re-use the old Newspaper plugins with the new theme. I crashed my WP install (500 server error), being a very experienced dude with WP, because I forgot to deactivate stuff in right order. Tricky that. Visual Composer is kind of a POS with WP theme switching, to be frank.
Hi,
Unfortunately I can’t see an easy way of doing that as modifying the width of the main container would cause other issues with other elements so you would have a lot to customize.
Also noticed while checking your site that you use the 4.1.3 version of Visual Composer plugin so please update it to the latest version which you can find in the plugin folder that came with your theme files and use this guide to do it right: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
Sorry for missing this, i suspect the issue comes from Visual Composer, make sure you use the latest version which is included in the theme package inside the plugins folder – http://screencast.com/t/W2vrF0E55i7
Thank you, Emil G.
Hi,
@Teejoow
As Christopher said you don’t need to activate it just use this guide and delete the WPBakery Visual Composer plugin then install it like this: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Thanks
Hi,
Yes, but you will have to edit the page template for that and add the ad or if you want it on a homepage you can use the page builder and add it using the ad box element of Visual Composer:
1. http://screencast.com/t/7wSGl79ddBQ
2. http://screencast.com/t/i6inrKyLzyY
3. result: http://screencast.com/t/q87xgmNxEb
Thanks
Hi,
Thanks @Steven! I have tested the latest theme version and haven’t had any issues of this type.
@Jorge/@SALZBURG12 Please make sure you empty all cache/purge files then deactivate all plugins leaving just Visual Composer active then check again and also clear your browser cache (use Ctrl+Shift+R to re-download the page ignoring cache content) if this dose not helps please update the theme copying the theme’s files manually via FTP using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme/ because the envato toolkit seems to case some issue when used for update and could not update the it right.
@Mark Clifford The css flash usually happens when using the speed booster plugin. Just checked your site and seems that it doesn’t happen anymore have you managed to solve it? Please let me know!
The 4.5d version of the theme from theme panel was added by mistake it should state 4.6 so it’s not an issue.
@Jalo I have tested this again using winmerge and that file hasn’t been changed in the latest theme versions, maybe you had an older theme version as the last time this file was changed is 4.1
@skykid Sorry for the inconvenience. More feature will be added, unfortunately I can’t give you any exact details about this but I can let you know that will happen in next updates.
Thanks
Hi,
I can assure you that it’s not a bug, you can see on pour demo that this doesn’t occur: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/?s=beauty
Most likely this happens due to a plugin so please make sure you disable all plugins leaving just Visual Composer active then empty cache and/or purge files if you use any CDN hosting service then check again.
Please disable first this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-everything/ as I quite sure that this is causing it.
Please let me know!
Thanks
