I am getting a ERR_SPDY_PROTOCOL_ERROR when I try to edit my home page that was built with TD Composer. I tried three different browsers and it is not just a Chrome thing, it just will not let me edit the page with composer.
Hello,
is it actually a problem, when I use the acf plugin on some pages instead of TD composer?

Hi,
If you want to change the h of the title inside the post -> https://www.screencast.com/t/721u5qkrdY2 then you can achieve this only making changes in theme core, you need to go in -> wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_module_single_base.php -> https://www.screencast.com/t/HqqSutnmppvy and replace the h1 with h2.
Thank you!
Hello @rupesh_ic
Goto WP Rocket Settings >> File Optimization >>> JavaScript Files >>>> Excluded JavaScript Files and add following line to exclude theme js.
/wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/Newspaper/js/(.*).js
Refer: https://prnt.sc/ow00xw
Hi @burkert heiko,
If you want to replace the H3 from your website with H2 with out td Composer, then you’ll need to make this changes in theme plugin files.

Hello,
First of all, here is the screenshot http://myprintscreen.com/s/19dx6/b75e07acd2 . When I try to use Page Builder, just getting “Error at Zones: 5(5 models): 1(dom). The model does not match the content.”
I removed all plugins except td_Composer, Cleared all cache, Reinstalled WP 5.2.2. Till now same problem.
I am using NGINX Server. Newspaper Theme Version 9.7.2.
I hope td team will help me to get the problem solved.
Thanks
Hello,
We have latest version of Newspaper (9.8).
I tried to empty cache, deactive and active plugins etc. but did not solved this problem.
I can’t try the solution at that address (https://pastebin.com/yrr2DdwB) because I don’t have a ‘td_instagram.php’ file. Probably there is not this file (td_instagram.php) in new version of theme.
Finally, I tried with TD Composer on homepage, again did not work.
My website: https://www.bidunyahaber.org
Hi @michelle,
Please notice that in social sharing will be show only the featured image for the Pinterest, only the Facebook and Twitter feature image can be change using the yoast seo -> http://prntscr.com/ovl9k4 but you’ll need to make some changes in theme core too, in wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/td_wp_booster_functions.php set change the 1 with 2 -> http://prntscr.com/ovla6z.
Thank you for your understanding!
Vlad, I don’t see any way to get to the filter on the category page (see screenshot). I know how to do it on homepage via “Edit with TD Composer,” but that’s not an option I see in the Podcast category page here…
I bought the Newspaper theme and activated successfully.
When I want to use TD Composer, I click to Load Template button I got “Invalid reply from server endpoint.” error.
Hi,
I have the similar problem on my site https://infochicago.pl/polska-2/prezydent-zdecydowal-o-skierowaniu-do-tk-nowelizacji-reformujacej-kodeks-karny/ but when i edit this template in tagdiv composer, it is okay. Link for template is also okay – https://infochicago.pl/tdb_templates/smart-list-template-3/
I haven’t settings background color and background image.
Could you help me to fix this problem?
Hi there! As mentioned in title, I’ve been working with TD Composer to create a new theme for http://www.blog.qoo10.sg, testing and tweaking all on the live site for approximately the last two weeks. Last Friday, the whole website suddenly became very sluggish, at times timing out with server errors or bad request errors. We’ve increased the allocated resources on our AWS EC2 server, but our 4core CPU is still being almost maxed out by this operation.

Enabling or disabling the TagDiv Speed Booster plugin has almost no effect on this issue. However, the console log also shows TagDiv plugins generating a lot of errors, possibly adding to the overload.

Would greatly appreciate any advice or help you can offer on this matter.
Thank you Vlad! I was able to customized my entire homepage! thanks you are very helpful.
Now I tried to update my side-bar on my “Post” and “Categories” pages I was able to control a few item under theme panel but will like to use TD-Composer to match it better using the same “elements” I used for the homepage but when I am under the post or category pages I don’t have an option to update it using the TD-Composer. FYI, I will like to update this section to become the standard sidebar for all and not just for a particular post.
Thanks
Fabian
Thank you for responding these questions. No worries about the first one I already got it.
I have a different question at this time. My demo comes with a few items at the bottom of the template that I can not edit using the TD Composer. I will like to delete them so I can recreate them using the TD composer features and templates. Please see screenshot below for reference. My demo page is “Food Recipes”
Temporary website: https://wordpress-312249-956321.cloudwaysapps.com/
Thanks
Fabian
Hello !
You could re-activate that option by doing so:
Go into: wp-content/plugins/td-composer/legacy/common/wp_booster/wp-admin/css/wp-admin.css
Search for: .tdc-tab-content-wrap .tdc-tab-content
Set it to Display Block from Display None as you can see here: https://www.screencast.com/t/6rVFWuiBaT
Thank you !
All is ok. I see new social network at theme paneL. But i don’t see this social network into social icons element through TD Composer https://prnt.sc/oujsku
Hi,
There seems to be an error in Tagdiv Composer Javascript which prevents using another scripts inserted in page made by Composer.
Here is this error and function which creates it: https://c2n.me/439jfCB https://c2n.me/439jidr
Function has ‘td’ prefix so I suppose this is Tagdiv Composer’s function.
Please help me to eliminate this error.
Website is https://news.ecoindustry.ru .
Thanks.
Hi Vlad, I deactivated child theme and activated main newspaper theme, I deactivated all plugins except TD Composer and I flushed cache and the error still occurs!!
Does this look like a familiar problem? Again please note that it is happening on both sites the main and the sub.domain version. What could it be?
Thanks
Ok. I actually builth the startpage only with td composer, so it should work. Could you please delete the name of my page from the thread?
Hi there love the theme. I have it licensed and running on two websites, both hosted on the same Go Daddy shared hosting account.
One is https://regulatorwatch.com (9.2.2) and the other is https://support.regulatorwatch.com (9.5). In the past few days a major error has started. On both sites when you log in to the Wp Admin dashboard, go to ANY page and click Edit with TD Composer an error is returned that says “This site can’t be reached”….. See attached image.

This error above is from the support.regulatorwatch.com website and it happens on every page when you click Edit with TD Composer. This also happens on every page on the main site regulatorwatch.com.
This problem is new only in the last couple of days. Each website is still up live and working. New posts and images can be added. It is simply the page editing that is not working. Major problem for me as I am still building the Support.regulatorwatch.com website.
Are you familiar with this type of error? Is it theme related? Or could it be a permissions issue with Go Daddy? Nothing has changed on my end. Plugins are updated. Themes have been totally fine and they are both different versions anyhow. I have not updated 9.2.2 yet as it’s the main site and wanted to make sure the updates were stable.
Let me know if you need login creds.
Help! Thanks.
Hello,
since I have some articles with tabbed content, I would like to ask, how can I create it using TB composer? I would like to deactivate WP Bakery, since you force the users to keep TD composer active.
Best
Adam
I build this page with tagdiv composer:
But after activating wp bakery, the icons got a little bit bigger and when I want to edit it with td composer, I see some weird code and can not edit it. I assume this are wp bakery elements.
I can not upload here a screenshot, so I can not show it to you.
I would actually delete wp bakery, but the problem is, I can not edit articles with td composer. So it make no sense.
Hi All,
I am new to WordPress and Newspaper – my main focus is databases. In a lot of the database forums I subscribe to, and as I suspect most of you know, it’s not uncommon for members to share code that creates a feature – not least because others then frequently take the initial entry, adapt it, then re-post. These sites also quite often also feature a sample code silo.
(@TagDiv Support, there’s a lot of really useful content on this forum but it’s limited navigation, layout and quantity of posts make it difficult to search effectively, not to mention time consuming. Can we have a Sample Code silo? Not only would it be useful for members but possibly limit you having to repeat the same or similar support requests).
BACKGROUND
I have a number of Use Cases that require elements on a web page to display simple listings of external editorial content – similar to a news ticker-type display but with no animation.
Initially, I decided that the TD Composer elements Blocks 10 & 9 were the most suitable – as they were closest to my required simplicity and would only be used for these Use Cases. However, the fact that there is no Newspaper option to duplicate a block within TD Composer, and I want minimal plugins installed, I decided to teach myself the PHP/CSS that would be required to achieve my objectives.
FUNCTIONALITY
- The link here shows two page elements that have different content and features which were created using the same Block 10;
- This involved creating new field types using ACF Custom Fields, including a post-type whose options could also be used in a PHP conditional If statement to create the variable field display within the same block;
The generic fields are headline, media outlet and published date for simple listings and other use cases have additional meta data fields; - When the headline linked is clicked on it has to a new web page and go to the external content. The published date must be that of the original editorial, not the WP posting date. This last point is important as I would be bulk uploading posts a few times a week, that will feature a spread of publication dates.
The following provides the necessary ACF Custom Fields setup, the PHP code and the CSS.
ACF Custom Fields
The table below lists out the field names and their setup –
- Post Type: Required. Field Type is “Select”. Drop down list choices are “Editorial” and “Research”;
- Title Link: Required. Field type is “URL”. This contains the URL of the external content page. Non-conditional as it applies to both Post Types;
- Publication Date: Non-conditional. Field type is “Date Picker”;
- Media Outlet: Non-conditional. Field type is “Text” and contains the name of the external content publication;
- Media Outlet URL: Required. Field type is “URL”. Conditional logic is if Post Type = “Editorial”;
- Some Other Field: Required. Field type is “Text”. Conditional logic is if Post Type = “Editorial”;
NOTE: I recently edited one of the Post Type options as there was a typo. I subsequently discovered that in doing so it not only broke all the conditional relationships with other ACF fields, that I then had to reset, but also reset all the Post Types assigned to my posts to a single value – which I also then had to go through and update. I raised this with ACF Support, who said –
“This is expected behavior, each field value is saved independently under each post and it is not recommended to change the field settings after posts have been saved with a value. You can however update all the field settings by creating a query to step through all the posts and pass the new value to the update_field() function. Please take a look at the following resource page for more info on this: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/update_field/”.
PHP
Block 10 uses the td_module_9.php file. My code amendment is here – https://pastebin.com/vJDbVjMA
Things to note –
- I have stripped out most of the default php echo statements that display author, WP post date and so on to stop them appearing if your default Newspaper 9 setting is to have these on;
- I’ve kept the div names etc as much as possible but the naming may not make sense in terms of the fields that sit within. This means the post title font formatting is still controlled by TD Composer’s Block 10 style settings menu. Similarly, the Media Outlet and date fonts can be collectively changed via the Article Meta Info style options;
- Additionally, as both these fields sit within a span class other style options are possible via custom CSS;
- You will see the conditional variable for the ACF field, Post Type, along with the other ACF Field variables defined within Function Render at the top of the code;
- Finally, to display the tags I used the suggestion in this support post (another good example of why a Sample Code silo would be useful), https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/display-tags-along-the-category-on-the-blocks/. My code already contains the php get_the_tags statement, but you will have to copy Vlad’s Pastebin code to your td_module.php file as he suggests. Note that I amended this slightly as it displayed a field label for the tags and I think it’s obvious what they are;
- If you want the same, simply remove the following line –
$buffy .= '<span>' . __td('TAGS') . '</span>;
CSS
This is here, https://pastebin.com/mjTz8Tua and features comments to explain what it does, which for the most part is reducing spacing and tightening the gaps between fields.
Hopefully, this post is clear enough to enable you to replicate and hopefully extend this functionality. A big thanks to Simion C. at TagDiv for his fantastic support in helping me work through this.
Please be aware, I have only been teaching myself PHP and CSS for about four weeks so I’ve no doubt the experienced community members will have more elegant ways of writing the PHP or CSS.
Please share if you do ?
Best Wishes
Gary
What do you mean by everything? Theme files and td composer files? Or also wp bakery should be deleted before the update??
