I just updated the theme to the latest version 8. I am trying to use the TD Composer but I am unable to drag drop anything even the row. Please help.
P.S I reinstalled the theme via FTP and the problem still persists.
(( You don’t have to stop using Visual Composer if you like that; but to migrate to using TD Composer in place of VC, you do need to redo some pages as it’s NOT a 1:1 replacement ))
I even didn’t install it, looks like it was installed automaticaly after i updated theme from 6 to 8.
And after i deleted it via ftp it appeared there again. I tried many times, but it doesn’t help, TD Composer and TD Social Counter are downloading automatically on my website.
And i couldn’t even delete it from admin panel.
The only thing which helps is chmod 600 for the folders with these plugins, but it seems it’s not how it should work.
Could you tell me how can i totally delete them, because of TD Composer my website stop working.

I use Newspaper 8 and VC composer. Now i have just white screen instead of my website.
[27-Jun-2017 09:54:56 UTC] PHP Warning: require_once(td_deploy_mode.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in …wp-content/plugins/td-composer/td-composer.php on line 12
I deleted td composer from plugin directory and everything worked fine, but somehow it appeared there again and again the same error.
Could you help me with this please?
Hi,
We have a lot of pages build up with the same layout, just different content.
Is it not possible to save a layout as a template with TD Composer – just like with Visual Composer?
Or do we have to create them from scratch each time?
Regards
Hello,
@thesussexrag, notice that with TD Composer you cannot edit a category page, sorry but I do not know where exactly did you see this, sorry! Notice that our page builder was fully tested and seems to work as expected if it was right installed according to our documentation. Provide more screenshots with your problem so I can identify it if you have something like this.
@shaker, ensure that you are using the latest theme version which comes bundled with the theme packet and also, checks your WP version to be the latest one. Also, check your system status parameters to be according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello arhinehart,
You should add a snippet of the code int td-api-plugin.php like in the following screenshot here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/yWqksyL2xo and the result should found here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/eaAuo9oyjN
('map_in_td_composer' => true,)
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the message!
Hello thoseconspiracyguys,
If your website is anchored in Visual Composer, you will have to further use the Visual Composer plugin, sorry! Notice that our page builder is a required plugin and the transitions between these two pages builders can be done only on the manually way, sorry! If you have more such pages and posts which were made with Visual Composer then you should stay on this page builder because you will not found all the elements which Visual Composer has and in this case, we cannot help you, sorry! From now on, the TD Composer plugin will be improved with some features which have to be exclusively for this builder.
What I want to mention here is that our page builder has not been designed to be used for post pages and will not be implemented this option in the future, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
hello, why my TD composer gives white screen when i try to use it
Missing something obvious here, I’m sure – I’ve downloaded the sample td-api-plugin files and placed that folder in the plugins folder. I can’t find, though, anywhere to activate block77 so that I can use it in TD composer.
What have I missed?
I have updated to Newspaper 8 and am in the process of editing all the pages on my site with the TD Composer. A little extra unexpected work but no big deal. The problem I have is with all my posts, they are all ruined. I have extra content like podcast episode players, t-shirt images and slideshows, revolution slider elements, image gallerys, extra TD-blocks for other posts and categories; and none of these can be customised using Visual Composer because anything that is in the main post is HIDDEN by the sidebar! The main content of the post sits under the sidebar and is all measured incorrectly! I have tried removing the sidebar completely and you can see the entire post but this is obviously not an option! Surely you guys can add this functionality to the theme? The VC elements still work, they are just measured incorrectly on the page! If I could reduce the main content by 30% it would probably fit! Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks for the response, but that video doesn’t show anything about installing via FTP, just installing the demos which I have been testing.
I did the install inside WordPress using the Appearance –> Themes –> Add New and from the newspaper.zip folder. Then, installed a demo theme.
The only single place that “Edit with TD Composer” appears, is on the home page. Nowhere else and only them is some demos not all of them.
Nowhere have I ever seen the “Edit with TD Composer” link on a category, which is shown is some of the promotional videos.
I have the latest install, as it was only bought a week ago.
Thanks

Hello arolee,
Check your list with installed plugins and check if the Visual Composer or TD Composer is enabled. You will bring these shortcodes because one of these is not active. we recommend using the TD Composer. For more information about this plugin, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello immamh77,
Unfortunately, notice that the TD Composer does not have any such an option that allows you to manage the Category pages, sorry! All of these can be managed only from Theme panel or from the theme core files via custom code. Notice that if you will use the TD composer will be affected only the pages (homepage), according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello all,
We are hard working on our project and in the new theme release, we will include the TD Composer in Newsmag, as soon as possible.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
I need help to make some changes:
1) In my home I entered
– custom ad 1
– custom ad 2
– custom ad 3
Each ad contains three images. I would like to reduce the space between them.
http://www.creactivestudio.com/space_between_images.jpg
2) I would like to have the same space in each category of my site.
I’m not a technician so I can not make changes that are not made with TD Composer.
Thanks for your help
It’s not yet officially released to work with current version of TD Composer and Newsmag.
I think they will include that option with next release.
Prior version of TD Composer *does* work with Newsmag 3.1x as we use it on *all* our sites with zero issues.
Newspaper system status
Plugin NextScripts – no work
Plugin Easy Watermark – no work
Speed Booster no work td-composer????!!!?????!!!????
Very very bad!!!
Hello fessor10,
Please keep in mind that here is talking about two different websites, sorry! The theme does not have all the options which are found in your site example, sorry! Before starting your project, I recommend you to consult all of our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/ and try to understand each theme element how it will work and also, try to adapt the theme to your desire. We have two-page builders which offer you a lot of settings, lie Visual Composer and TD Composer.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
I’m migrating a site from one host to another. I made a backup using Updraft Plus and moved everything across to the new location, which worked fine. I then went to install the Newspaper theme and it seems to have installed correctly. But when I go to activate tagDiv Composer I get:
The plugin does not have a valid header.
Downloading install package from /wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/plugins/td-composer.zip…
Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.
I’ve no idea why – any ideas?
Thanks.
Hello barnisayz,
Notice that the TD Composer has not affected the category settings. Sorry, but I do not exactly understand what you want to achieve. Please provide more details about this so I will be able to provide a more accurate response. For more details about how the TD Composer can be used, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/tagdiv-composer-tutorial/
Thanks for your understanding!
hello @MitchyBoy
Edit your homepage using TD Composer then choose block where you want to show latest articles and now change Sort order to Latest on Filter tab. And SAVE the changes. ?

Hello,
I have bought the Newspaper theme tonight. When I checked status, I saw this error :
Speed Booster v4.7 – Disabled – incompatible plugin detected: td-composer/td-composer.php
Isn’t it a little bit ridiculous that your plugin is incompatible with your another plugin which is necessary for your theme?
CSS file is slowing my site speed. I have looked into the source files of newspaper to get it to the footer or load it async.
How to move the CSS below to the footer?
