With version 8.6 everything works perfectly, but when updating everything, this includes the template and the plugins I can not access the admin page, a blank page appears, I removed all the plugins leaving only the td-composer, but the error continues, only if I disable the td-composer plugin via FTP. I had to restore my backup to go back to version 8.6. Do you know how to help me? Sorry for my bad English.
Hi
I have major issues with my website, none of my pages that have been built using Tag Div Composer works. i only use the Tag Div Composer and I have tried all the fixes I have seen from other posts in the forum but no joy. I have even tried rebuilding the pages from scratch but nothing works.
This is the error i receive – Errors happened during tdcIframeData.init() -> bindViewsModelsWrappers()!
Help needed as soon as possible..
I’m having issues using the TD Composer, just a blank screen. This happened after upgrading the 8.7.1 and updating the plugins.
There appears to be a conflict with TD Composer and the popular Shortcoder Plugin where when you add a Title+Text block to a page and try to edit the text, the editor in the pop-up window won’t render. Deactivating the plug-in solves this.
This is on a clean/fresh install of Newspaper 8.6 using TD Composer 1.0. Haven’t yet tried 8.7 and the new TD Composer, but will once the bugs are ironed out.
Wanted to let the tagDiv team know to fix in an upcoming release
Hi,
My TD composer won’t load for my homepage. The page remains grey and the spinner just keeps spinning. It works fine on other pages, just not for my homepage (which is where I need to do most of the work!).
I understand this can often be caused by insufficient system resources, so I’ve checked my theme system status and updated any that were yellow, including increasing my WP Memory Limit. Everything is now green, but the problem with the TD Composer remains.
Can anyone help with this?
Much thanks.
My first go at upgrading to 8.7 was a disaster. I punted and went back to 8.6.
I then rebuilt the website up from scratch exactly the way I want without starting with a demo. I used Visual Composer as Tag Composer constantly locked my screen or would not perform. I started with a blank sheet, added rows, columns and widgets and set the loops for articles up and I was successful in creating a robust site with Slider Revolution at the top, pressed right up to the MAIN MENU, having to trick it by entering -48px for the Margin, Newsletters call to actions, Social Media interfaces and a whole lot more.
I then used DUPLICATOR, as I had done in the past, and everything was migrated without a hitch. Previously when I used DUPLICATOR and built the site up using one of the Demos, the replicated site never carried over from the original site. Building a site up from scratch apparently set everything I needed in such a way that DUPLICATING it became a snap.I did not have to do an EXPORT and then IMPORT of Theme settings.
THEN . . . having replicated the site over to another, I gave the 8.6 to 8.7.1 upgrade another try.
To upgrade Visual Composer and Tag Composer, you must first Deactivate and delete them. If you follow the sequence provided in the documentation, it states to delete the Newspaper theme first, then FTP 8.7.1 over under the Themes Folder AND THEN upgrade your plugins.
If you follow that sequence, the Admin Dashboard is completely shutdown and goes blank white. You lose all access to being able to visually do anything. I blew out the site again, and reinstalled again with DUPLICATOR.
The sequence I followed that worked was:
I deleted Visual Composer first and updated it.
I deleted Social and updated it.
I then deleted Tag Composer, updated it, then got a boat load of ever messages of incompatibility with 8.6 and the Social Counter.
I then blew out the old Newspaper theme and replaced it with 8.7.1.
Then and only then did everything work flawlessly.
I installed the AMP plugin expecting a robust configuration tool. The only thing I was able to do was set some colors. Have I completely missed something? I was using AMP for WP and it allowed me to set an image in the header. the only reason I migrated to 8.7.1 was that I thought I would get some robust AMP configuration capability. AMP for WordPress was selling a NEWSPAPER compatible Theme for AMP but I thought with TagDiv I would get a more bug free, robust integration.
Documentation really is very thin. The tutorial on AMP was thin and I struggled to find out if I just needed to drop the Analytics code in or drop in actual code as described in the pop up help on the Theme Panel. I finally just dropped the Analytics code, brought up Google Analytics Dashboard and tested and it worked.
I could not find any specific documentation on the Multi Purpose Plugin. I installed it, played around with settings, and notice no difference on the site, so I deleted it.
The Newsletter Plugin – I have not been able to find any documentation on this at all. I have previously installed Holler Box and it meets my needs, so I deleted this plugin as well.
SO . . . . I AM STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT I GAINED BY UPGRADING TO 8.7.1.
As I read I am finding TagDiv is stating there are bugs with AMP and there will be an emergency patch. I have no idea what those bugs are. I am getting results on the Google Dashboard.
My issue is the AMP Post has no customization. What am I missing? Do I create a template? Do I need to Reinstall AMP fo WP so I can have a logo in the Header? I thought the whole point of Upgrading to 8.7.1 was so that AMP was fully supported.
Hi,
I’m encountering the same problems that a lot of other people seem to be having. When I go to use TD composer and use the page elements “icons” the icons don’t load or the “column text” element the wp text editor doesn’t load. I was having a look at the system requirements and think this could be because the max_execution_time requirement. On the system status it says it recommends over 60 if using the demos. I am not using a demo, but wondering if this is still the issue.
I have my hosting through hostgator and the max_execution_time is fixed at 30. Is it really the case that in order to run this theme I would have to upgrade my entire hosting package?
Hi again Epickenyan,
Thanks for the response. I am newbie at this. I have some other questions:
-If there is an apparent problem with the composers why we should download both at first place? why they tell us to upload the visual composer after td composer?
-Should we upload the plugins in some order? For example I uploaded the cache plugin after I built some pages but I encountered many problems after it. (I am not sure tough)
-I decided to go with td composer but I need to start all over the site. What do you advice me for the beginning? (Not just for the theme, wordpress and the others settings)
thank you in advance
I am trying to create a new page with TD Composer. If I click edit with td composer, I get a grey-white page with a permanently spinning spinner. Nothing else. I recently upgraded to 8.7.1 Further, trying to use TD Composer first time. Earlier, I am used to work with VC.
For that I put site under maintenance mode. deactivated all plugin except TD Composer. but no luck same result.
The page was built using TD Composer. I also rebuilt the page but it still doesn’t work.
There is a know issue, please see this topic
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/eta-on-fix-for-td-composeradmin-issue/
In some cases there were 500 errors caused by a setting in cpanel

We are working to see why that setting is causing the 500 errors. Sorry again for this inconvenience.
Hi
i use 8.7 theme version with js composer for making page
if i load via ftp new version of td-social-counter plugin, I get the code below instead of the button
[td_block_social_counter custom_title="" style="style7 td-social-boxed" facebook="name" facebook_app_id="0000000000" facebook_security_key="00000000000" facebook_access_token="0000000" twitter="name" googleplus="+name" open_in_new_window="y"][td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]
moreover in js composer backend editor, the code is strangely displayed as text.
the social block has disappeared…
Going back to the old version 4.2 of the plugin (contained in theme 8.6) everything works well.
How to solve?
Thanks
Hello,
I have a vector logo, is there an easy way i can use this for scalability instead of a .png? where would i insert the code?
I would also like to use .svg backgrounds INSTEAD of using background images on blocks etc. is this possible through td composer. perhaps the css editor of an element?
thank you
Hi
I just get the loading symbol when i try to edit with td composer on any page.
i can still access everything else.
i waited 24 hours but it is still happening.
thank you
I’ve been using TD Composer now and I like the upgrade. However there are a few elements from the old Visual Composer that I don’t see in the new TD composer and I was wondering if I was missing something.
Say for example image gallery. It’s an option in the old visual composer and was very useful. Is there no option now to have image gallery in TD composer? Would I have to keep switching back and forth between the two page builders to make this possible?
Also I was wondering about the text as well. When I’m using inline text do I have to format it with html tags? (eg. <br>, <b></b> etc?) Am I not able to use the text editor like before? It’s just a lot more time consuming to format the text than it was before and I’m wondering what the best way forward here is.
Appreciate the help.
I’ve read a few posts here about blank admin issue when activating TD Composer in v.8.7.1. Is this a known issue and is a fix expected? I need to create about 25 pages that I had started before this update, and now I’m stuck. I can revert back to v 8.6, but will eventually want to update and already suspect that I’ll need to reformat several elements on these pages (for example, titles no longer centered in new version). Trying to figure out a new timeline. Please advise.
All my other pages will work.
Hi
When I create a page with tagDiv Composer all goes well until I save the changes in the composer and add a feature image or some info for SEO Yoast and save the draft. If I go back all disappeared (no HTML code in it).
I installed the latest version of the theme 8.7.1 and updated the TD composer to 2.1 but I still have the same issue.
Thanks
Hello,
i bought the Theme today, sadly i am getting internal server error when trying to install the theme via WordPress.
I then uploaded the theme manualy via ftp which worked out and activated it but when trying to install the “required plugins” located in the package i get the error message: Failed to install plugin td-composer. Plugin does not have a valid header.
I am reading about a lot of problems with 8.7 in this forums and on the envato reviews. Is this also a 8.7 related issue? You guys are telling people to revert to 8.6 for the time being.
Does the 8.6 version have php7 support?
All those sliders in the td composer labelled “big grid full” allow you to achieve just that without css.
Just copy the code inside the page in the editor and then create a new page and paste it there (Also save the code somewhere else as a backup in case you want to roll back changes). Open the page with td composer and edit (or tweak) the page as you want. Once done, just copy the edited code and paste back to the previous page that you have set as your homepage. Preview it and if it is the way you want, then just save the page. Though it is simple to just edit the page as it is coz no one will see it until you update the changes. (That’s what I do, and I don’t work here btw).
Hi!
If you create a new page and use the composer mode. When I do like that I can only find add element for the whole witdh. It will mean that my sidebanner i have connect from the widgets, will be att the bottom of the site. Please visit http://www.futsalmagasinet.no to see what i mean.
I want the right sidebanner to be next to articles at the top.

Hi,
I could give you code to make the exchange widget display properly
– https://www.screencast.com/t/YVGIKs9Z
.td_block_exchange .td-column-1 .td-exchange-base {
width: auto;
}
Enter that code in Theme panel->Custom CSS. Regarding the social counter, I see you have managed to add it on the page. If you want to position it differently, edit the page with the composer and move it.
Thanks
Hello all,
Please keep in mind that you have updated the theme to the latest version of it which is v8.7.1. Yes, you need to install the TD Composer (v2.1), TD Multi-Purpose plugin if you want to achieve best theme results. The theme update should have to be made via FTP way according to our documentation from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks for your understanding!
I am not able to changes for my Homepage settings.
Error is – “Errors happened during tdcIframeData.init() -> bindViewsModelsWrappers()!”
