How to update Visual Composer ?
Today, Composer is 3.7.2. In Newspaper theme 2.1.1, Composer is 3.6.8.
In admin, there is 1 Update Notification. But no plugin or theme seem to need an update. However, I think it’s Visual Composer.
Thanks.
Salut
Ceva nu e ok acolo, poti dezactiva cateva plugin-uri, poate fi ceva conflict cu Visual Composerul(page builder-ul)
Mersi de mesaj!
Salutare,
Am careva probleme cu tema voastra, si anume cind incerc sa lucrez cu page builder… fac o pagina noua, trec la visual composer si cind adaug careva elemente in pagina ele nu se includ, iata un screen http://note.io/1d8rbxw
Daca apas butonul publish/ update pagina se incarca iar elementele adaugate dispar din composer.
Hi,
Firstly – my the very big thanks for this theme. After wasting time and money I’d finally found the only thing that can be named as Real WP-Theme for News ))
Secondly – one small question. I have some custom taxonomies for my posts (world regions, f.e.) made by “Simple Taxonomy” plugin. Is there any chance to make news-blocks in Visual Composer by these taxonomies? Right now it’s possible to form them only with built-in categories.
Grateful for help in advance.
Hello,
We released yesterday the 2.1 update and we finally added the google adsense asynchronous code.
@thomaspe – we are well aware that we may need to improve the menus 🙂 . I don’t know yet if we should continue and finish the panel or go after the menu system first.
@betterretailing – we encountered a lot of problems when we try to implement per category color. I’m sure we can figure it out!
– the visual composer components are there but we didn’t manage to style them. I wanted for quite some time to enable it on posts and the idea to include the default controls is grate in that case.
Thanks guys for the encouraging messages and please don’t get mad if we don’t manage to release all the features that you request. We have almost 100 feature requests and issues on our tracker and we receive new ones daily. We have to be very careful what we pick. We are also experimenting with a lot of things that go from the youtube api, an unique grid system, to crazy server / hosting profiling tools 🙂 .

@betterretailing: Have a look at the funnction.php. There a some funtions deactivated for the visual composer.
Colour theme across different categories! Yes that is exactly what I need 😀
Also as a suggestion please could bring some of the Visual Composer elements from Magazinly across?
e.g: FAQs, Separator, Separator with text, Gallery, Call to Action button, Accordion…

Hello,
1. for the date you will have to change the wordpress language.
2. edit the menu and change it (for the icons text on mobiles use the translation panel from the theme) http://screencast.com/t/pZqAzC2CCgWP
3. http://screencast.com/t/uVwUi6EO
4. woops 🙂 we missed them in the translations panel. You can edit the social counter plugin: td-social-counter.php like so http://screencast.com/t/tuXHNwyXH we will fix this in the next update.
5. use the panel
6. the panel and edit the block in visual composer
Hope this helps
Hello,
you can change the theme color from theme customizer: http://screencast.com/t/eYxiKtweBh
or you want just on sidebar? – that would need custom css code.
edit the homepage using visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/VXSXVorL6Kx

Hope this helps 🙂

Let me describe what’s happening.. let me know if you have any thoughts.
“Sidebar A” includes a “Block 1”
“Page A” uses “Sidebar B”
When I add a “Block 1” to “Page A” using the visual composer.. my sidebar on “Page A” will ONLY use “Sidebar A” (which also includes a block 1). No matter what the page template settings are.
Any idea?
Thanks! Love your work.
We did a lot of work cutomizing an existing website with your theme on our dev environment, I mean we use a lot of what you call visual composer, now we’d like to go to preprod then prod. The thing is the database already exists on live and we’d like to be able to export/import what we already did on dev otherwise it will cost us again a lot of times,
Best regards,
Fabien
How about a multi select input to select which authors to show? in the visual composer “Author Box” tool
I only want to show 2 Authors on this specific page.. so far the only way is to “exclude” the 25 others.
Any ideas?
Page Template Setting: Sidebar auswählen
Über den Visual Composer legst du 3 Spalten an
Innerhalb der 3 Spalten legst “Block 3” an. Dort kannst du ja Kategorie auswählen und Anzeige auf z.B. 3 Artikel setzen Excerpt gibt es hier nicht, da müste man im der entsprechenden Datei “fummeln”. Oder hat er das mit Bordmitteln so hinbekommen?
I’ve got the custom block and module working. But I’ve run into another issue. I’m displaying sub categories and using the Load More button to load posts using Ajax. Except that when ajax loads more posts it’s not displaying them in the 4 column layout I’ve programmed into the custom block and module. I assume there is another file I have to modify to output the correct ajax?
Also, by any chance, will the Teaser Grid component of Visual Composer ever be supported?
Thanks for all of your help.
Hello Marius,
Thanx for your answer ! Basically I used the page builder/visual composer, but not the way I should have (and now I’ve understood that I needed to use the block 3).
Now it looks like it’s ok…
Thanx for your answer, and congrats for your theme, good job !!
Hello,
Each block, slider can be configured like you want to get article from what category you want, sorted like you want, latest, featured, popular, etc.
The homepages is build using Page Builder(Visual Composer) Do you use it before?
Just edit your homepage and start the Visual Composer(the blue button) Form there you can add, remove, edit all the components on the page.
Also please throw an eye on the documentation there you have some steps how to make things happen. http://import.tagdiv.com/newspaper/doc/
Thanks for the message and please feel free to ask us anything!
Hi,
I chose to use the “One click demo install” on my website, and chose this version, as I couldn’t find the way to get this appearance via the Visual Composer (it was ok for the big slide, but I couldn’t find the way to get the blocks organized in the category “Don’t Miss” on the exemple I showed you).
How to “manually” build such a homepage ? I also would like to know how to display different categories on the homepage, like in your exemple (i mean, for instance, how to select other articles in “Dont’ miss” ? Rather than the latest articles, which appear also in this line…).
And my last question is : is it possible to choose not to display every article on the big slide ?? As soon as I add an article, its pic appears on the big slide, wihch is not always what I want !
Thanx four your answer !!
I want to create a new page template using Page Builder (Visual Composer). Then I want to use that page template as category template.
I know how to create a new page layout using Visual Composer but I don’t know I will set this page layout as the default layout for category pages.

Is there a way to change the number of columns, image size, and remove the post meta info (page views, comment count), and in alphabetical order, without creating a custom block/module?
I’m trying to create a page that lists my company’s staff from a custom post type. But obviously it doesn’t need post views and comment counts. Nor does it need to display content from the post.
I could easily create the page using Visual Composer, but I have a lot of staff, so I would like to have the listing paginated, preferably the Load More button. I also would need to use just a normal thumbnail size due to the portrait nature of each person’s photo. The aspect ratio of the thumbnails in Block3 just doesn’t lend itself to portraits of people.
Ahh Didn’t realize it was nested like that. Thank you. BTW, have you been able to look at my post about a custom archive template?
Hello,
Please don’t use row in row. Use similar like here: http://screencast.com/t/2OypzD54VuF is the same results.
Thanks
Theme updates, you mean?
This wave is the Icon of the Visual Composer..
I just bought the theme and installed the patch that comes with it. (v1.7.1)
Seems like the ajax doesn’t work properly and WP is not recording my changes… 🙁
I’m building a page layout using Visual Composer. However, when I add a row and a block to that row, it doesn’t come out fluid.

Also, I’m still waiting for help with my other thread I posted a couple days ago.
