Hi,
Try to use the Theme with only the Visual Composer plugin and deactivate all other plugins and see if stars working.
Also please delete the plugins and install like here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Thanks
I’d like to have a slider on top of my front page which is built with the visual composer however.. when doing to the slider block the items in the mega menu.
Basically the menu ends up behind the slider and not the other way around which happens when there is no slider.
Any way to work around this?
Hi
I am trying to create a custom block for Visual Composer for a custom product type. I am not sure how to add one. I would like to use the code of the old blocks and create a custom one.
Is there any way to do so?
Regards
I just installed the theme and all the plugins. It asks me to update VC but I can’t (read in another posts that it isn’t necessary). Now, the Visual Composer does not work for me.
I’ve used it before and I know there should be a button above ‘Add Media’ that you click but instead it’s opened below the text field and I can’t load templates or anything. A screenshot is here: http://i59.tinypic.com/2lwvfd4.png
How do I fix this or how do I use this?
I need the VC for a lot of stuff such as the homepage so I’m stuck now.
You can do this on a block-by-block basis by editing one in the visual composer, or on a site-wide basis by changing the WordPress Settings -> Reading -> Blog pages show at most … option.
Also, note that in the editing screen, below the visual composer, there’s a meta box where you can select to display only unique articles on the page. But I don’t think you can specify which box will display a particular post without the strategizing Christopher mentioned.
I’ve added a custom field for coauthors, followed their docs, and written some basic php. It’s working great 🙂 I’ve switched the functions in all my single templates and modules to use my coauthor display function instead of the default get_author function. I’ve tested it in every module and single template and it works.
But I’m having a hard time figuring out how to change the blocks used in the Visual Composer. I see td_block_1 through _9, td_block, td_block_layout, etc., but can’t seem to find where it actually looks up the posts.
Can you point me in the right direction??
This issue is typically due to
1) theme not installed properly
2) Using Internet Explorer which doesn’t always handle the Ajax properly
3) running plugin with errors, or you have leftover theme code from prior theme running, either as plugin, or using OLD version of Visual Composer that did not come with this theme
4) caching not turned off prior to theme setup, so you are loading elements of old theme in browser
Good places to start.
Hi,
@TheMediumUTM Thanks!
You can create a popular video widget in your sidebar using “[tagDiv] Slide” widget and filter the slider to show popular videos/posts, like this http://screencast.com/t/zFKDspkLW9s or like @TheMediumUTM wrote you can filter the posts by tag and add them in the slider.
For the child categories, like this http://screencast.com/t/727gnoDZvnlY
Thanks
Thanks @Christopher /@TheMediumUTM!!

Hi,
What version of Visual Composer are you using? I have checked your site and seems like you have some padding and also an box-sizing that prevents the big slider images from aligning like it should http://screencast.com/t/9qUlUqLVZi0C
You can use the custom css at the end in theme panel > custom css filed to fix this but it would be better if you figured out where this comes from and fix it from there otherwise you would encounter other issues.
My guess is that you are using a newer version of Visual Composer, if that’s so please revert back to the VC version that was provided with theme files, as we did not made any tests with the newer version of VC we can guarantee it will work.
.vc_col-sm-12 {
padding-left: 0px;
padding-right: 0px;
box-sizing: content-box;
}
Thanks
1. That widget looks like a normal TagDiv slider pulling from a category or tag slug. You can find this in your widgets list. I don’t want to install the demo site and check but it’ll be something like that.
2. The block options, whether widget or in the visual editor, have a setting “show child categories menu” that you can check for this effect.
P.S. If you’re a little obsessive (like me) and are willing to pay the $28 to get the full version and make the update counter go away, it might not be worth it. Someone else just posted about trying this and found that a newer version messed with the big slider, on that particular implementation anyway: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/wpbakery-version-ussue/ So it’s probably best to wait for TD to update with the theme.
Just ignore it. You get a bundled version of the plugin with the theme; you can’t update VC except when the theme is updated.

today wp ask me to update WPBakery Visual Composer…
is not possible i try to download anda ask me user anda password.
was looking at the demo site and like the idea of the popular videos widget on the home page. i cant figure out how to create this.. is it in the visual composer and if so which box is it?
also while i am at it..
on the demo site there is a BLOCK 2 visual composer that says “Dont Miss”. Does anyone know how to get the catagories that are writen below the title ie.. All, Beauty, Get inspired, Health & Diet
Hi,
Glad you have managed it.
Regarding the Visual Composer, please note that this plugin is included in the theme files at it’s latest version each time the theme is updated.
Thanks!
Hi,
Like I said here we usually include the VC plugin at it’s latest version when we update the theme.
Unfortunately we hadn’t made any test with the VC latest version an we didn’t included it in the last update.
You can use this version of VC if you want and try to find a solution yourself or wait until the next update and we will test the plugin and fix this.
Sorry about this!
Thanks
Think I figured this out. Looks like it was due to having an older version of Visual Composer.
-It’s quite worrisome that falling behind on updating that one plugin can easily break your site.
Hi,
Clear, i’ve installed 4.2.3 again and the big slider is working perfect again. I’ll wait till the next updat.
Thanks!
Hi Lucian,
I really appreciate your assistance since I really need that code. Unfortunately it returns an error on the header of our website with the error:
Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘td_my_custom_class_names_on_body’ was given in /home/website/public_html/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 199
class=”wpb-js-composer js-comp-ver-3.6.8 vc_responsive” itemscope=”itemscope” itemtype=”http://schema.org/WebPage”>
Do I need to add the code on the very button of functions.php? Since that’s what I did. I hope you can assist me again. Thank you in advance for your patience 🙂
Brilliant, thanks!
Hi,
You can add this feature by editing the block you want the infinite load on from here: http://screencast.com/t/6pfOyy1Bl
Thanks
Hi,
Glad you have managed to solve this.
Unfortunately we haven’t made any tests with the VC at 4.3.2 version.
Usually when updating the theme we updated the plugin also but this time we haven’t updated the plugin as we didn’t managed to test it right.
Sorry about this.
Please install the plugin from theme’s files previous version. We will update the VC in the next update and fix this issue.
Thanks
