The “Edit with TagDIV Composer” option in Pages, still does not work. Disabling, uninstalling, removing, then reinstalling and activating a new copy of the TagDiv Composer did not resolve the issue.
This issue began following updates to our Home Page using TagDiv cloud templates. We’ve also notice that all of our top menus (above the Home Page content) have disappeared.

NOT ABLE TO DEDIT TAGDIV COMPOSER ON ME
INTERNAL SERVER ERROR 500 OCCURED
PLZ TO GIVE ME RIGHT SOLUTION
THANK YOU.,

Hi,
That is the ajax categories dropdown and you can enable it with the tagDiv Composer, select teh block, and under the filter tab https://prnt.sc/qAfYuYDPheOu
https://forum.tagdiv.com/flex-block-settings-guide/ -https://prnt.sc/qCmOZRfESaSw
Hi,
Those can be edited with tagDiv Composer, select the element and check the style tab, from there you can choose a style and colors for that style – https://prnt.sc/K4Qc6pAdbY_q
Hi,
Most of the time, the problem is from a html tag that is not complete (si open but not close or closed but not open); therefore, after you set it with tagDiv Composer and save the page/cloud template, the next time you try to edit it, you’ll get that error.
If is only for one page or a cloud template (it can be on the header or footer, you can change them for tests and see if the problem persists), this is from some settings/shortcodes set on it and it can be fixed using the page revision https://wordpress.com/support/page-post-revisions/
Thank you!
Hi,
If this is on a page, and the results are displayed in the tagDiv Composer editor, but not on the frontend, most of the time it is related to the Unique Articles, if this is in use and those articles are already displayed in one of the above blocks then will no longer be displayed in the one you set the ID and filters.
When attempting to access any existing Page via TagDiv Composer for the purpose of revision, we experience a never-ending loading screen. We are also unable to close that window without closing the browser window. All site caches have been cleared. To recreate this issue:
Admin/All Pages/(select any Page)/Edit with TagDiv Composer)
Site is https://www.bizcatalyst360.com/
Selected Filter > More From Author,
In the Multi Author box I placed the author ID number
In tagdiv composer it brought up the two articles that author has provided.
Save.
View Page.
it’s blank, no articles.
Not sure why.
Hi,
Yes, you can edit the mobile header. For this, please use tagDiv Composer and edit the homepage.
Once opened, select any element on the page and switch to the mobile viewport. From there, you can customize the header elements such as the logo, menu, and search icon colors. You can also modify the row that contains these elements for example, setting the background color to white and adjusting the menu and search icons to black – https://forum.tagdiv.com/header-manager/

Hi gmodonesi,
If you are using Cloud Templates, please make sure the required plugins are installed: tagDiv Composer and tagDiv Cloud Library. In some cases, tagDiv Opt-In Builder may also be needed.
If you are still using older templates, you will also need the tagDiv Standard Pack.
All these plugins can be installed from Newspaper > Plugins.
As a best practice, please always check which theme plugins are currently in use before updating the theme, and ensure they are properly installed and updated afterwards.
Thank you!
Hi,
The zones refer to the header/content/footer zone.
Most of the time, the problem is from a shortcode that is not compatible with our theme; therefore, after you set it with tagDiv Composer and save the page, the next time you try to edit it, you’ll get that error. The simplest and fastest way to resolve it is to use a page/template revision – https://wordpress.com/support/page-post-revisions/ (in this case will be a post template revision).
If the above solutions are not working, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide the WP-admin login, as well as cPanel and credentials. We will take a look. Include a link to this topic in the email.
Thank you!
Hello, I’ve built custom category and tag template on my staging environment using the Newspaper theme and tagDiv Composer. What’s the recommended way to transfer it to my production site once it’s ready? Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Hello,
I am experiencing the “Layout sync error” (The editor expects 6 zones but the page is rendering 0) when trying to use tagDiv Composer on my homepage.
My hosting provider has already increased the server limits to meet your requirements, but the issue persists. Here is my current System Status:
PHP Version: 8.2
WP Memory Limit: 512M
PHP Max Input Vars: 5000 (Set in Plesk)
Max Execution Time: 300
Upload Max Filesize: 64M
Troubleshooting already done:
ModSecurity has been disabled.
AMP plugin is deactivated.
I tried creating a new page with “Page Builder Root” template, but the error remains.
Permalinks have been resaved.
Browser cache and theme CSS cache have been cleared.
Could you please help me identify what is blocking the editor from synchronizing the zones?
Thank you in advance.
Hi, thank you for the clarification.
Yes — I’m referring to the Single Post Mobile Template created in tagDiv Composer, not the old Mobile Theme plugin.
If I choose a smaller featured image size in the mobile template (for example 696px or 1068px), will the theme still generate the full srcset, including the larger versions (1200px+, 1600px, 1920px), as long as the originally uploaded image is large enough?
This is important because Google Discover requires the mobile HTML to expose an image of at least 1200px in the srcset, not only in the desktop template.
So my question is:
Does selecting a smaller display size in the mobile template limit the largest image included in the srcset, or will the theme always include the full-size variants if they exist?
Thanks again for your help.
Hi,
To change/edit the fonts you need to use tagDiv Composer, edit the page/template, select the element and look for style (some elements have the style in the general tab, others have a style tab ) – https://prnt.sc/e5sTKX-LDsjA – https://prnt.sc/_Vf3Zu3CPbri – https://prnt.sc/N-srRA0Xq5JM
Hi,
Just a few follow-ups for clarification.
When you mention the “Single Post Mobile Template,” are you referring to the mobile page created with tagDiv Composer, rather than the Mobile Theme plugin?
If that’s the case, you can select the preferred size for the featured image. I believe this is the image in question and the one triggering the Google Discover notice. You may set it to 1920px, but please also ensure that the original uploaded image is at least 1200px wide. This will allow the theme to properly serve the full-resolution version of the image.
Hi,
I just checked teh website and now it appears to be ok.
Maybe the tagDiv Composer (theme plugin) was not installed/updated.
Thank you!
Hi,
Yes, you can do that. The file that you should copy under the child theme is under this path: wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/single.php. Make sure that you copy both files, single and loop single (the files should be set directly in the child theme, not under \parts\single).
In our guide, we mentioned how to overwrite only the standard pack templates- https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-child-theme-support-tutorial/ that are in a different place.
Hi!
How can I hide the Exclusive Row / Section for categories that will not have exclusive content.
Hi,
I will forward this to our developers, and they will check it out.
Also, I want to let us know that using a mobile page/template will still load teh tagDiv Composer and cloud library (because those are used to create those pages and cloud templates for the mobile version). Normally, this option should be used when you need to have different content on mobile pages and mobile templates, maybe a smaller page with fewer elements, blocks, and for a different layout. Having the same layout and content will be better to use the responsive version, instead of the mobile page/template.
Here are a few additional recommendations you can try. For some users, all themes work without issues, while for others, only certain ones function properly. This can vary depending on the extra plugins in use, as well as any caching or optimization plugins installed.
-> Footer delayed load https://prnt.sc/FS34hBno40sx (under the theme panel > footer > footer delayed load)
-> MINIFY INLINE CSS and AGGREGATE INLINE CSS – https://prnt.sc/en14t6CQChM- (under the theme panel > block settings> inline css)
-> Don’t load on mobile/desktop, this option is only on the cloud header for HEADER MENU https://prnt.sc/udlAW4icvSPP on HEADER MENU STICKY https://prnt.sc/9pKnilQdWyex on MOBILE MENU https://prnt.sc/ff7fRQvTnaXt and on MOBILE MENU STICKY https://prnt.sc/Mm-4mbC4WB68
-> Flex Blocks cache – https://forum.tagdiv.com/use-flex-blocks-cache-option/
Also, it is recommended to use a good cache plugin and even Cloudflare (CDN)
Thank you!
Hi,
The demo you are using is the Downtown Magazine PRO and in that demo the block titles have been set using the tagDiv Composer with teh element Inline text, so you can edit it by editing the pages/templates with tagDiv Composer, selecting the elements that create the block title, for example thetxt, button and the inner row is the one that has in css tab the border https://prnt.sc/Zso5OkrfRAgc
Thank you!
Hi,
The banners on the demo Urban Observer are set using tagDiv Composer with the help of the ad box element and those can be edited/replaced/removed using the same method, edit the page/template with tagDiv Composer – https://i.imgur.com/1oFeoWq.png select the banner and in image tab and you can remove/replace the banner – https://i.imgur.com/TPO1Xrc.png
Thank you!
Hello @Calin
I am writing to you after a deep technical audit that lasted two days, conducted by a Senior Infrastructure Engineer and Web Performance Specialist. We had to take this measure because our PageSpeed scores are stuck between 31% and 41% on mobile, despite running on a high-end VPS with persistent cache (Redis/Object Cache) and every possible server-side optimization.
Google has officially notified us regarding this poor performance, stating that our site is no longer a priority in search rankings due to failing Core Web Vitals. After a thorough investigation of the source code and database, we have pinpointed the root cause: The Newspaper theme is loading both Desktop and Mobile assets simultaneously on mobile devices.
Even with dedicated mobile pages (separate IDs), the theme “stacks” the entire desktop framework on top of the mobile one. This redundancy is killing our performance.
I need you to take this diagnostic to the tagDiv development team immediately. We need to know if and when a fix will be released. If this architectural flaw is not resolved, I will be forced to migrate to another theme or develop a custom one, as I cannot afford to lose my SEO ranking due to theme bloat.
Technical Diagnostic:
Problem: Mobile pages heavier than desktop pages
Date: 03/05/2026
Theme: Newspaper 12.7.5
Plugin: td-composer
Server: VPS Ubuntu — CyberPanel — LiteSpeed
CONTEXT
The site glostv.com uses the Newspaper 12.7.5 theme with the td-composer plugin and has a system of separate pages for mobile and desktop, where each version was built individually in the Newspaper visual editor (tagDiv Composer). The site owner reported that pages on mobile are significantly heavier than on desktop, even though there are separate and optimized mobile pages already built.
MOBILE SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE
The following pages were created as mobile templates inside the tagDiv Composer itself and are marked in the database with the flag tdc_is_mobile_template = 1:
ID 7584 — tv ao vivo Brasil (mobile version)
ID 7617 — POPULARES TOP (mobile version)
ID 8700 — Estados (mobile version)
ID 8872 — Homepage (mobile version)
ID 9944 — Política de Privacidade (mobile version)
ID 9948 — Termos de Uso (mobile version)
ID 10581 — Sobre Nós (mobile version)
ID 10597 — Política de Cookies (mobile version)
TECHNICAL PROBLEM IDENTIFIED
Problem 1 — td-composer loads assets WITHOUT any device distinction
Confirmed directly in the file:
wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_wp_booster_functions.php
Line 362 — Composer JS loads for ALL devices:
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘load_js_composer_front’, 1000);
Line 430 — Full Newspaper CSS loads for ALL devices:
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘load_front_css’, 1001);
Line 744 — Full theme JS loads for ALL devices:
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘load_front_js’);
None of these functions have any device check. They load for both desktop and mobile equally, without any condition whatsoever.
Problem 2 — The mobile engine loads ON TOP of the desktop engine
Confirmed in the file:
wp-content/plugins/td-composer/mobile/functions.php
Line 149 — Mobile CSS loads ON TOP of the desktop CSS already loaded:
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘tdm_load_front_css’);
Line 173 — Mobile JS loads ON TOP of the desktop JS already loaded:
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘load_front_js’);
Line 184 — Mobile specific script loads ON TOP of all previous ones:
wp_enqueue_script(‘td-site’, TDC_URL.’/mobile/js/tagdiv_theme.min.js’);
Problem 3 — The flag tdc_is_mobile_template does NOT remove desktop assets
Confirmed in the file:
wp-content/plugins/td-composer/includes/tdc_state.php
Line 42:
private static $is_mobile_template = false;
Line 202:
public static function set_is_mobile_template($is_mobile_template) {
self::$is_mobile_template = $is_mobile_template;
}
This flag only serves to let the visual editor know it is on a mobile page. It does not execute any removal of desktop CSS or JS. It is purely an internal state variable with no effect on asset loading.
Problem 4 — Proof: Zero wp_dequeue for mobile anywhere in td-composer
I ran the following command directly on the server via terminal:
grep -r “wp_dequeue|deregister” wp-content/plugins/td-composer/ -n | grep -i “mobile|desktop|css|js”
The only result found was the removal of Visual Composer scripts in the backend administrative editor, not in the frontend. Throughout the entire td-composer codebase, there is not a single wp_dequeue_style() or wp_dequeue_script() instruction conditioned on mobile device detection in the frontend.
WHAT THE MOBILE BROWSER IS ACTUALLY DOWNLOADING
When a user accesses the site from a mobile device, the browser downloads all of this before rendering the mobile page:
From the desktop engine (which should NOT load on mobile):
Full legacy CSS of Newspaper
td-composer frontend JS (desktop visual engine)
tagdiv_theme.min.js desktop version
td-cloud-library CSS
td-standard-pack CSS
td-multi-purpose/style.css
Desktop version fonts
From the mobile engine (which loads ON TOP of the desktop):
Newspaper mobile CSS
tagdiv_theme.min.js mobile version
Mobile specific scripts
Fonts loaded again
The mobile browser is downloading the complete Newspaper framework twice. Once for the desktop layout that is discarded and once for the mobile layout that is actually used. This directly explains why mobile pages feel heavier and slower than desktop pages. DIRECT QUESTION TO SUPPORT
Does td-composer 12.7.5 have any native mechanism to remove desktop engine assets—specifically the functions load_front_css, load_js_composer_front, and load_front_js located in td_wp_booster_functions.php—when the page being served is already marked with tdc_is_mobile_template = 1 in the database?
If yes, in which file and on which line does this asset cleanup occur?
If no, when is the development team going to release an update to fix this? It is unacceptable that a high-end theme like Newspaper forces a mobile device to download the entire desktop framework AND the mobile framework simultaneously. My server-side analysis confirms that even when using dedicated mobile pages, the theme simply “stacks” assets instead of “swapping” them.
This redundancy is causing a massive performance overhead and killing our Core Web Vitals. We have separate pages for a reason, and the theme should NOT be loading desktop junk on a mobile-dedicated template. We need a clear position on when this will be resolved so that tdc_is_mobile_template = 1 actually triggers a wp_dequeue of unnecessary desktop resources.
Hello, my anti malvare plugin says that there is a vunlerability in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/css-live/includes/td_live_css_ajax.php
I updated it to the newest version 5.4.4, but it shows, that the vunlerability is still there… When would this be fixed?
Best regards,
Rafał.
Very similar to this post https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/tagdiv-composer-wont-work-and-cant-update-theme/ . Tried to reset the theme, purchased a new license but the theme won’t activate. This is the error: An issue has been encountered while trying to validate your license key.
How can this be resolved?
