i think i figured it out.
for all who have the same issue and maybe @davistar -> so if you want to exclude X articles of the latest post:
go (via ftp) to /themes/newspaper/page-homepage-loop. there you have to edit line 130 to this:
query_posts(‘offset=4’);
in this case the first 4 articles would be excluded.
hi
is ist possible to have one visual composer widget on top (big slider) followed by the latest articles and then another visual composer widget?
thanks and best regards
Hello,
1. Big slider work only on full width(3 columns) you can use the Homepage blank template and add the Big slider with Visual Composer.
2. Use Homepage blank or Homepage – bg – no article list and add 2/3 + 1/3 columns with page buiilder. first column 2/3 add a block like you want to display the posts and use “Load more” as setting. http://screencast.com/t/8oDdcRyAQoW and use the next columns 1/3 as sidebar, add from page builder Widgetised sidebar and select a sidebar that you want to use.
3. To add another banner you have to add it directly in code, in v3 the file is in parts folder, the files with header…php(depends what style of header do you use)
4. The space can be reduced via CSS, use inspector from Chrome or firefox and add your custom css in style.css or in V3 we have a section for custom CSS.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
I just switched to your amazing theme and have some problems with adjusting the excerpt length for m category pages. I am using module 8, 9 and search but whatever I enter in theme option – nothing changes on the category pages.
Is there a known bug or am I doing something wrong? I am using the standard wordpress excerpt field on post editor visual composer for the post.
I hope you can help (again).
Cheers,
Norman
Hello,
We only disabled some elements from VC. You can bring it back editing function.php file and removing this code: http://screencast.com/t/whv3Y8P3y
Also please disable your visual composer plugin because that plugin is integrated in theme.
Thanks!
You can select in the composer when building your home page:
http://import.tagdiv.com/newspaper/doc/#homepage
I believe the theme will ask you to install plugins when you first launch the theme admin panel, if you don’t already have the revolution plugin installed.
If you skipped the “please install plugins” message, I think you can still manually install the plugin from:
/Magazin/includes/plugins/revslider.zip
Hope that helped. 🙂
Hi,
I just purchased your theme and switched from my old theme that also uses a build-in visual composer. Unfortunately there are some content boxes missing in your version (e.g. separator with or without title, alert boxes).
I do have a single license for VC but before I start coding something: Do you plan to fully integrate all available visual composer elements into your theme?
Thanks in advance for the answer.

Hello,
I have this problem – after installing the the demo posts are without sidebar. I made a page with visual composer with right sidebar and from static home page in customizer i connect it with the post, but there is no effect. Where is my mistake?
Thank you.
Hello,
@davistar
I mean you can exclude a category adding in category filter the cat with minus. If you have a category FOOD with cat 8, if you add in category filter -8 from that block all post from FOOD category will be excluded.
Thanks!
hi guys
thanks for your reply.
But unfortunately it doesn’t help me. i have daily news-updates on the site. so the last 4 news should be shown on the slider and the older news right below the slider. both of them have the same category “news”. therefore i have no possibility to separate the categories.
thanks

Hello,
Visual Composer Plugin is fully integrated in our theme , you don’t need to install it (or buy it).
You can make frontpage slider without the Visual Composer Plugin, but you need to edit the shortcodes.
see the difference:
slider made with visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/kXYBHqdyCQ
slider made with classic composer : http://screencast.com/t/DMAoem1v
Thanks for you message.

Hi!
I’m testing your theme. After I installed your theme on my web server, I imported your sample data at your theme option. It was really easy and cool.
I found “WPBakery Visual Composer Settings” at my setting page. But Visual Composer Plugin wea not installed by default.
And I wondered how to create a frontpage slider. So I looked up your documentation material
here.
It seems you’re using Visual Composer Plugin to make frontpage slider.
However, as you said here, “We fully integrated the visual composer in our theme, so we did not used as a plugin. Unfortunately to add new elements in our version of you need to modify the code.”
I was confused what it means exactly.
1. Does it mean I can make frontpage slider without the Visual Composer Plugin ?
Or Your theme is so made that only installation of Visual Composer plugin is enough to work with your theme ? So Do I have only to buy premium “Visual Composer” and install it on my server ?
I’m not familiar with your theme yet.
Please help me.
Thanks A Lot in Advance.
Hello,
so if the featured category has the id 86, you have to add 86-4 to the filtering option? Didn’t work for me.
Yes, everything is configured properly. However, it doesn’t load .mo translation files
Manual translation functions work fine, but it’s too much work, and half the website loads visual composer strings.
I’m using this theme for multiple proyects, and it would really help using regular .mo files for the theme and visual composer
Hello,
Did you set up wordpress to load your specific localization? http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_in_Your_Language via wp-config.php ? It should also load the visual composer’s settings.
Please do not install the visual composer plugin on the theme… it may generate conflicts. We will update the visual composer version in the future.
Sorry for all the problems,
Radu from tagDiv
Hello,
Is not possible, what you can do is to use the slider to show there Featured articles and in block 3 add in category filter to exclude the Featured posts(this is to prevent duplicated articles between slider and block 3), add the cat id with minus (ex -4) of the Featured category.
Thanks for the message!
Allright, here’s the spanish translation for you to include it in next releases.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/hzfnkv7n3loy4ri/es_ES.zip
Please help me with visual composer translation (it’s there but won’t load)
There’s a spanish translation for the elements in visual composer, however it doesn’t seem to work. Elements still appear in english.
Newspaper/wpbakery/js_composer/locale/js_composer-es_ES.po
1. shouldn’t it load the translation domain somewhere?
what should I do?
2. I separately bought visual composer, is it possible to update it (since the downloaded version loads language fine)
Hi,
my frontpage is built with visual composer.
first row -> slider (with the latest 4 posts)
second row -> block 3 (sort order: latest posts)
Problem: slider already shows the latest posts and block 3 shows them again. is there a possibility to let block 3 start with the 4th post?
i am more or less familiar with coding but i can’t find the right .php where i can edit the sort-order (starting point)
thanks and best regards,
alex
Hello,
The option Infinite scroll is an option for Blocks(visual composer or widgets) as you can see here: edit a block and set it like this: http://screencast.com/t/4cDAmIcZjZk
Also other settings is Next prev ajax, this option is used for this block on our demo: http://screencast.com/t/RL92yCSX7kR
Please check in console(Firefox or Chrome inspector), to not have js errors.
Thanks!
Hi Marius,
I tested a block in the visual composer in which you can add text. In this block I added a blockquote. The text was huge and blue. I tried to change it with in the style.css as you suggested.
It didn’t work. Tested it in 2 browsers as I figured it maybe could be a browser caching issue.
So it’s not about the category, I don’t use that.
Maybe you have a another good suggestion? Thanks!
Hello,
1.
.iosSlider .slide-meta-cat a {
color: #FF0000 !important;
}2.
.td-sbig-title-wrap a {
color: #FF0000 !important;
}3. You have this directly when you edit the block in Visual composer http://screencast.com/t/QlCHas6al
Hello,
😐 From where you choose a CSS animation in visual composer? You have implemented some custom css animation? Can you show us an example?
Please give us your site URL to see the issue.
Thanks
