Hi,
Have you also updated WordPress also? If not please do so then following this guide connect via FTP and remove the VC plugin’s folder then install it as instructed here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Also try this without plugins active, empty cache and purge files if you are using CDN host.
Please let me know how it goes!
Thanks
Hi,
What theme version do your use as the latest version of the theme(4.6.1) doesn’t have an inbuilt version of VC plugin.
Please also note that we provide an unmodified version of the VC plugin, tested to work well with the theme. The theme dose remove though the VC front editor.
Please disable all plugins then install and activate just you version of Visual Composer Standalone plugin then check again as this should work and also make sure that you also update to the latest theme version.
Thanks
Hi,
@sezarx I believe you refer to the predefined styles: https://forum.tagdiv.com/installing-the-demo-data/
Please let me know if this is not what you need and also if you have any other theme related issues.
Thanks
Hi,
Please make sure that you use this installation guide and use the FTP method to upload theme files: https://forum.tagdiv.com/installation/
Then activate it and check your site without any plugins installed to see if it works. To add plugins please use this guide and do the same for each plugin, upload and install it from the /plugins folder: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Please let me know how it goes!
Thanks
Hi,
You need to remove it then install it again from the /plugins folder which was provided with the theme files and make sure that you have and use the 2.7 version of the plugin. Also make sure that you empty cache/purge files and test this without any plugins active.
If you still have this issue after doing this please give wp-admin and FTP access so we can take a closer look at this and send login details at contact@tagdiv.com and also send a link to this tread or specify your issues details.

Hello,
Since i installed the theme i keep getting warning from google webmaster tools about 404 like :
https://www.vpnmag.fr/vpn-pour-tablettes-ipad-galaxy/contact@vpnmag.fr
can u help to fix it ?
Hi,
I also noted this above:
You need to install the plugin first.
Also make sure that you have added it as you need to install the plugin first.
Make sure you install it from the /plugins folder that was provided together with the theme files when you’ve downloaded it from themeforest: http://themeforest.net/downloads
The social counter plugin included into the latest theme version is 2.7 so make sure you have it like this: http://screencast.com/t/YqAjnWg7IO
You can also find this on theme documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-manage-the-social-counter/
Thanks
Hi,
Mega Menu will display the subcategories automatically if the selected category has any. – http://screencast.com/t/uH23yFkaF – http://screencast.com/t/BvPCer7OUOgT – http://screencast.com/t/Q5rhDSj4cdL
Please try this without any plugins installed (leave only Visual Composer active). Also please update the theme if you are not using the latest theme version(1.4) and the Visual Composer(4.3.5) that comes with the theme and you can find it into the ../plugins folder. Follow this guide to update the theme and use ftp method: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-theme/
Please also provide your site URL so we can also check this, some screenshots to show you set megamenu and categories.
Also please post your issues about newsmag theme in the newsmag section!

Hey,
I tried updating the plugin but I got the following error:
===========================================================================================================
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare wpb_getImageBySize() (previously declared in /home/daily/public_html/main/wp-content/themes/PilatesDaily/wpbakery/js_composer/composer/lib/helpers.php:15) in /home/daily/public_html/main/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/helpers/helpers.php on line 67
===========================================================================================================
When the above message appeared, I tried installing via the FTP way, same error message. So both ways of WP dashboard and FTP didn’t work. Please advise. Thanks.
I need to setup menu same as demo theme…but unable to do as even after i installed demo data.
It should.
And of course you should always keep backups of the original installers for WooCommerce and not just rely on the WP updater. This allows you to “go back” a version if something it terribly wrong.
Seems to work for me … but I’m still in the setup phase with putting in the products, options, testing extensions/plugins for stuff like custom tabs and turning off the review function, etc.

I didn’t install any plugin that may cause any problems please give a review on to my site and fix the issue i shall be very thankful to your because i am the only lover for newspaper i know who don’t want to change the template never ever!
Might be your web server doesn’t have the right image processing modules installed. You should have ImageMagick running for best results.
I’ve never seen the issue you’re having with this theme after a year of using it, or with any WordPress site. No idea HOW you’re getting that to happen, frankly.
I suspect some oddity of your server, or a bad plugin, or the setting for compression is too high. Or, you’re using some kind of hosting platform that re-saves files and compresses them a second time — some web hosts do this, and you have to turn that off.
I would go back to the default WP theme and see if you can sort it out with only the twenty-fifteen theme running.
Hi,
I bought the Visual composer Standalone plugin cause it’s seems to be a problem witj Woocommerce…
I would like to install the last update but each time I activate the plugin, the admi page is still balnk ?!
Here is the answer from WPBAKERY :
Hi rudy,
The issue is because there is an inbuilt version of visual composer (or the related code) present in your theme which is overriding the standalone plugin version and hence causing the issue. You will have to get rid of it. I would advise you to do so with the help of theme author, otherwise you might loose the extra elements added by him. Once this is done, you can install the standalone plugin and it will work fine. Kindly check.
Thank you,
Best regards
Rudy
Just to confirm, I’ve tested it on a NEW wordpress installation, with ALL default settings and no edits.
All modern themes use the built-in WordPress image thumbnailer which relies on the “featured” image to create thumbnails. Older themes used things like Timthumb to make thumbs on the fly.
We had the same issue, and found a plugin on envato called “Auto Post Thumbnail PRO” which will generate a featured image from the first image in the post and assign it as featured image so that all the thumbnails used by this theme (or most themes now, including those included with WP base install) will work.
It’s cheap and it works. To enlarge images if needed we also run “thumbnail upscale” plugin.
The combination does what we need on some of our 10 year old sites where, as you, we didn’t use ‘featured image’ as that wasn’t necessary or it didn’t yet exist.
Hope that helps!
Ok Great! Yes I believe I have the latest version of the theme.
The strange thing is that even if I disable Total Cache, the 7 day post sorting in the sidebar module is not updating. it’s very strange, since it used to work flawlessly, when I first installed the theme.
Thank you
I’m still having issues with VC after deleting and reinstalling from plugin folders because the VC version I have in plugins is 4.3.5 instead of 4.4.1.
It won’t let me update to VC without the license key, which I am not sure of how to find.
Hi
I have just installed Newspaper, when i activate the theme and install the plugins the site no longer loads http://www.theladtimes.co.uk, any idea what the issue could be?
Thanks
which version of wordpress need to be installed for theme newspaper.
Hi,
I have checked your site and haven’t found the social counter widget added anywhere on the page: http://screencast.com/t/xvPAyOvx
Make sure that you add and use the social counter widget right using this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-manage-the-social-counter/
This is the widget you need to add and use: http://screencast.com/t/c42XRT3rRO
Also make sure that you have added it as you need to install the plugin first.
Make sure you install it from the /plugins folder that was provided together with the theme files when you’ve downloaded it from themeforest: http://themeforest.net/downloads
The social counter plugin included into the latest theme version is 2.7 so make sure you have it like this: http://screencast.com/t/YqAjnWg7IO
Thanks
Hi,
I’m not sure what causes this that is why it would help to inspect the site so I can figure out what is wrong.
The slider breaks like that when the style sheet of the page is altered like width of it.
I suggest you also remove the Visual Composer plugins then install it from the plugins folder that was provided with the theme files when you’ve downloaded it from themeforest and make sure that you install and use the 4.3.5 version of the plugin.
Use this guide to update the VC plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
You can also check the demo via IE and compare it with your case: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
Let me know if you still have this issue afterwards and how it goes!
Thanks
