Hi,
I instal Newspper7 yesterday and try to do something with this theme. I have a problem with Visual Composer.
1 – Should I see some editor or only code to VC when I try to change something on page?
[vc_row full_width="" parallax="" parallax_image=""][vc_column width="1/1"][td_block_trending_now limit="5"][td_block_big_grid_1 td_grid_style="td-grid-style-1" sort="featured"][td_block_14 category_id="" limit="3" custom_title="PROMOWANE" td_filter_default_txt="All" ajax_pagination="next_prev" sort="order_posts"][/vc_column][/vc_row]
2 – Can I put some cutom post type in to VC? Ex. events from The Events Calendar plugin?
Regards,
Daniel
Hello avicabessa,
I suppose that you want to add your ads after every post when you are using the Blog mode (front page displays your latest posts), right? So, if you want to do that, you will have to use the do_shortcode method, create the shortcode using the Visual Composer and then add it in the loop.php file. First of all, you will have to add your custom ad code in your Custom Ad 1 area from Theme panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/8960iRYbP and then, using this snippet of the code > echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1"]');
This will have to be added like this -> http://screencast.com/t/b43jvDsyt and the result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/nZHwT04z3
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
I’m not quite sure how you want it exactly. As I understand it you want to place 3 block 7 elements inline (on a 3 column layout I assume) on all posts. For this you have to use a do_shortcode function and place the visual composer shortcodes in side it. The place the code in each post template you want to use the blocks on. If this is what you are looking for: http://screencast.com/t/EYW900UWqW then you can create the layout you want inside a page and then access classic mode and text mode and copy the shortcodes. Thne use them inside the do_shoprtcode function like so:
and place the code above the breadcrumb on each single-template.php file: http://screencast.com/t/zi1HZRMS
I hope this helps.

Hello FarrahGillani,
I have checked your website and I saw that you are using the category template style 2 for your category pages, right? So, if you want to add your logo under the category title, you will have to add this in td_category_template_2.php. You can add your logo image using the do_shortcode method. First of all, you will have to create your shortcode for your logo, using the Text Block element from Visual Composer and then you will have to add this under the title in the core file.
1) Create your shortcode, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/7wrTbk1sO -> http://screencast.com/t/aLBXrotZzYr
2) Place the code in the corresponding category template file, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/FZcfgYnMie
The code for this example is ->
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<a href="http://192.168.0.214/site2/logo-header/"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-3166" src="http://192.168.0.214/site2/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/logo-header.png" alt="logo-header" width="272" height="90" /></a>[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]');?>
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/Hasz018hCGfd
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Este vorba despre site-ul androidblogger.eu. Pur și simplu nu-mi arată nimic în Visual composer, în Classic Mode îmi arată acele shortcodes de genul vc_row][vc_column][td_block_big_grid_5 td_grid_style=”td-grid-style-5″ category_id=”16″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]
Când intru în Visual Composer nu mis e afișează nimic. An nevoie neapărat să pot modifica acel homepage. Am dezactivat și pluginul de security, am dezactivat-activat Visual Composer, nimic nu-l face să revină. Aveți o imagine mai jos.
Mulțumesc, Alex Ciocan
Hi
1. I am not sure what you mean, do you want to ad posts in min menu? If so then yes, they will work fine so you can add any post there.
2. Please provide more specific detail about what you’re trying to do because I don’t understand your question.
3. You can use this template fro Visual Composer to replicate the same layout as on our demo: http://screencast.com/t/VAcE5Yq2MW
4 Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css to reduce the distance: http://screencast.com/t/J56dfBtuK
.td-header-style-7 .sf-menu > li > a{
line-height: 36px;
}
.td-header-style-7 .sf-menu {
margin-top: 45px;
}
Thanks!

Friends,
I’m running version 7.2 of the theme and I installed the latest version of Visual Composer that came bundled with the theme.
The issue I’m having is that my site is only displaying in one column, even though I have setup a 2/3, 1/3 layout on the homepage. I’ve search the forums for similar issues, but I’ve yet to find a fix.
Any help would be appreciated.
Link to site: http://bit.ly/29vORUy
Here my homepage:

Hello, well as I´ was, take a look in the source code of my website, i found the following line; <body class=”home page page-id-25117 page-template-default custom-background amigo-de-cristo wpb-js-composer js-comp-ver-4.7.4 vc_responsive td-full-layout” itemscope=”itemscope” itemtype=”http://schema.org/WebPage”>, in red into the source code, some one could help, in sort this out?
While editing a post and refreshing the updated post on the frontend of the site, I noticed that the footer – which I had previously disabled – was showing again. That was odd, but I figured it was a small hiccup.
However, I also noticed that none of the big grids worked anymore (on homepage and on category pages).
It’s almost as if something got reset (and somehow made the big grids stop working).
So, recapping: “Big grid” type of post display stopped working on categories and on the homepage. I was not working with those settings when it broke.
I checked the settings and it looks like everything is set up correctly.
I’ve tried:
– Ensuring unique articles is disabled
– Disabling plugins (despite not working with them when it stopped working)
– Removing all filters from the big grid (just showing posts from all categories, no filters)
– Adding a new big grid with no filters
– Adding a different type of big grid with no filters
– Removing other big grids from the page

Hi there,
I am having layout issues where when creating for instance a 2/3 column & 1/3 column layout in visual composer both columns take 100% of the width and are displayed one above the other.
I think this is due to js_composer.css overridding style.css (where the .td-pb-span8 & .td-pb-span4 classes are being overwritten by .vc_column_container)
Could you help with this please?
Many thanks
Hi,
Sorry but this falls beyond what the theme support can offer you. Customization is not covered by the theme support. Maybe you changed something that affects the images or maybe you have a plugin conflict that make the images break .Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Also for the code to work, you cannot simply change the image size without defining a new thumbnail for it. This is done with the theme api: https://forum.tagdiv.com/td_api_thumbadd/
Please note that you will require coding skills for this and theme support does not cover it. If you require assistance for it, you will have to hire a freelancer from sites like studio.envato.com
Thank you!
Hi,
I recently installed the Newspaper theme on a brand new WordPress installation. Once downloaded, I installed the Black Version demo and received this error:
“Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_convert_encoding() in /home/procrastinate/public_html/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/wp_booster/td_video_playlist_render.php on line 164”
I don’t have any plugins installed aside from the default ones and Visual Composer. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Best,
Kevin
Hello Palathil,
Unfortunately, I do not exactly understand what do you want to do? Please notice that what you have shown me above is just a title of the block and you have control over this element when you edit the block in Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/Zx0bT42eT So, if you want to remove all the block title for sidebar section, you can use a bit of CSS to hide it. Try the code below ->
The code is ->
.td-pb-span4 .block-title{
display:none;
}
or if you want to get rid of it all the block title for the entire website, you can use the above code without first condition -> .td-pb-span4
If you refer to something else, please provide more details about what you want to achieve, so I will be able to provide a more accurate response.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi
1. There is no ideal size for featured image. Basically image’s size should be at least by thumb’s size where will be used. You will have to asses the containers and thumbs you plan on using on your site and the post templates as well. If you use post templates that use the full size images like: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-2015-awards-all-of-the-best-and-worst-moments-from-the-show/ then a full hd image is required. If not, you need to inspect every element especially on the homepage. If you use big grids, your images must be at least the size of the big grid container otherwise they will not fit inside and not display properly. Here is a list of all thumbs used in our theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/
also:https://forum.tagdiv.com/thumbnails-vs-featured-image-size/
2. Unfortunately you can place ads inside a block but using Visual Composer they can be added between blocks using ad-box block. Here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/UsEiHaLk http://screencast.com/t/svjvQcYTee96
I hope this helps.
Thanks!
I have a sub domain in a Multi Network used your theme, and here are problems:
- 1. When I activate visual composer included in the theme’s setup package on that sub domain, it turned me to a ftp login page. After logging in, I was redirected to a “do not have permission” page.
- 2. Activating the td-api-plugin included in the theme’s setup package on my sub site make it unable to handle request.
- 3. Though I have inputted the purchase code, Visual Composer menu in dashboard still have the “Product License” tab
Hi, I have disable all plugins except visual composer and cleared all caches but the problem is still there. please help?

Hello brandontrimmer,
First of all, I want to thank you for your interests in our product. As you can see, our theme is very complex with a lot of features and if you understand it better all of them, you will easily achieve the similar layout. Before beginning to customize your website, I suggest you reading our reliable documentation and you will have to spend quite a bit of time learning that first to do so. Please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/
I have checked your website which you gave me above and I saw that it is used an image in full width as the front page and then have included a few blocks with infinite load pagination. So, using the Newspaper and Visual Composer you can bring the image in full width with the ROW in stretch mode, like so -> http://screencast.com/t/0J12CfUnuB -> http://screencast.com/t/nDsE07hz and then you can use what kind of block you want and choose from here -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/. For more information about the Block Settings, you will find here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-guide/ For post pages, please notice that we have many post template created by default for our customers and you can notice them here ->
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-lenovo-details-new-computers-that-could-be-heading-our-way-in-2015/
Also, for more information about them, please consult here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/post-templates-2/
You can consult our Youtube channel because there you will find a lot of useful video tutorial which can help you to achieve as you wish -> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LC7iz-v-zIY
More important is this tutorial here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ because there you will find how you can properly use our Visual Composer plugin, for better results.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding and good luck for your project!
Hi
Each demo have its own style and to combine theme in most cases you’ll need a bit of custom css. For example the color for block’s title can be set from Visual Composer for each black but to have the same padding you’ll need this custom css: http://screencast.com/t/JaOfk9HUY9Kx – http://screencast.com/t/kmQgh01r1m3
.block-title span, .td-medicine .block-title label {
padding: 7px 14px;
}
Thanks!
I’m trying to add a custom ad zone for content ads like Taboola above the post title but below the header. So, on the following page it would be above the title of “Kid After. . .” and below the header with the logo. It would span the whole width of the page.
http://vidtd.com/2016/06/18/kid-after-getting-drugged-up-at-dentist/
Is there any way to do that through the theme options to make it easy on me, or do I need to go into the code? If I need to go into the code, how exactly do I do that? I already have a child theme enabled and moved the single post template into it if needed, but wanted to see if there was a way to do it through the theme.
The homepage allows a lot of flexibility through the visual composer, but I can’t find a way to do it across all posts to the overall post template.
Thanks!

Hello,
On my site http://www.sportsdouchebags.com, at one point in the past I could edit homepage via Visual Composer and rename and choose what content displayed under what header. I would click on edit pencil icon and there was a drop down that would allow me to pick category, or most recent, most popular, etc.
Now, I cannot find that option anywhere I look. How can I change SDB Greatest Hits (which is currently displaying based on popularity) to another option? And edit the header text?
On line 2065 it looks like this: block_td_uid_17_57629ca426129.atts = ‘{“sort”:”popular”,”custom_title”:”SDB GREATEST HITS”,”limit”:”5″,”category_id”:”320″,”category_ids”:”-1102″
Please help.
Thank you
Paul
Hi,
The category tags can be removed for every module in particular from this section of the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/Ke7qKqng
if you want to remove the tags for a particular block and not all blocks of that type, then you can add a custom css class on the row in visual composer and use css to hide the category tags.
Here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/hejLj9Cvv
Then I would use this code to hide the tags for this row only:
.mycustomclass .td-post-category{
display:none!important;
}
As for the tags on category pages, they can be removed by changing the category template style from the per-category settings: http://screencast.com/t/5zTtbSaOU
Thank you!
