Hello, i’ve tryed several ways. Using the visual composer and pasting the video codes separated by comas, for example, for watching this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJIwi4pgtTA&list=PLJeyvhviS8bvAqx03TfsMDcchhrvFNXcs&index=1 I copied and pasted zJIwi4pgtTA
you can see it in this screenshot http://canal7cv.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Captura-de-pantalla-2016-04-26-a-las-17.00.07.png and appears this fatal error: “Fatal error: Call to undefined function mb_convert_encoding() in /home/canal7cv/public_html/wp-content/themes/Newspaper/includes/wp_booster/td_video_playlist_render.php on line 161″ you can see it in this screenshot: http://canal7cv.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Captura-de-pantalla-2016-04-26-a-las-17.00.15.png
When I try the same way but using the entire code: v=zJIwi4pgtTA&list=PLJeyvhviS8bvAqx03TfsMDcchhrvFNXcs&index=1 there isn’t any error and the list appears but any video loads. like in this screen shot: http://canal7cv.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Captura-de-pantalla-2016-04-26-a-las-17.20.15.png
and also I’ve tryed do it using a text widget with this code [td_block_video_youtube playlist_title=”7 AL DIA CONTENIDOS” playlist_yt=”list=ZyLrSg45qGY, l1luzPlefy4″ playlist_auto_play=”0″] and the same, I can see the frame of the playlist but any video loads.
the page where I am trying to implement the playlist is http://canal7cv.com/7aldia
Thank you
Hi
If you move theme’s css file to footer your page speed will be increased but there will be a layout misalignment for a few seconds until the css it’s loaded and it its style it’s applied. That’s why we decide to keep the css in header.
Also if you decide to move all css in footer you have to keep the same order so make sure you added the code like here: http://screencast.com/t/jnZQRyqy0KoU
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('google_font_open_sans');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('google_font_roboto_cond');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('js_composer_front');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('td-theme');
In indicated thread my colleague referred at Speed Booster behavior when it’s used with Newspaper theme. In that case the main css mile it’s moved to footer but VC’s css it’s left in header.
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve made an additional tests using Speed Booster plugin. By adding this code: http://screencast.com/t/jnZQRyqy0KoU in td-speed-booster.php file the plugin move all theme’s css file to the footer. It also moves the google fonts and Visual Composer’s css file: http://screencast.com/t/BHgnBsDk Also jQuery file it’s moved automatically in footer when the plugin it’s enabled, this is a correction to my previous reply.
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('google_font_open_sans');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('google_font_roboto_cond');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('js_composer_front');
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('td-theme');
Before making any changes in plugin’s file check its status under System status panel and make sure it is active: http://screencast.com/t/zONMbMWql If the plugin is inactive comment this code from td-speed-booster.php file to make it active: http://screencast.com/t/VHE9iuEqgc
I hop this helps.
Thanks!
Import script started:
> Newspaper 4 settings not found in database! td_008 – not found
> Quiting!
I’m trying to fix my visual composer. Thought maybe updating would help? What do they mean by 5 settings not found?
Hi. Yes, is possible 🙂
Following the guides and forum I reached using Comet Cache, tagDiv Speed Booster, etc.
all nice, added in tagDiv Speed Booster the codes, removing statistic plugin by histats (js hosted at them), no ads.
but since I want to add some ads, and back my statistic plugin or other I need to get those 5% I miss:
Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS in above-the-fold content : style.css
– if I add
$this->move_style_to_footer_queue('td-theme');
then is showing in pagespeed/insights back (reverts) all the changes I made… so, not good.
– if I add ‘td-theme’ line above and remove any other block that contains ‘td-theme’ in Speed Booster it crashes.
– There is a way to fix style.css render-blocking?
i ask, since i followed all the other codes, used them, it works, but not for style.css …
– other note: adding (‘js_composer_front’) breaked my homepage, any page I do with composer is showing a vertical line on the left side of the theme. so I now use only latest posts as homepage, to look fine.
– on mobile I have 84 / 100 just because of the same error, style.css in the screen above.
using wp 4.4.2 and v2.3.5.
I fixed it myself… problem was related to “outdated” Visual Composer plugin.. I updated it according to instructions here and all good now 😀

Hello wira,
I have checked your website and I saw that your images are not shown to your side. Also, I checked your console and there you have some js errors, as you can see here -> http://screencast.com/t/SRyjbnnSn I suspect this issue come from your untested plugins which interact with the theme and could create some unknown issues. Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins. Also, you can try to turn off the lazy load feature from Theme panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/EJGtD4Fp if you have active this option.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thanks.
Hi,
I’m not sure where the TD_TOP_BAR_TEMPLATE_DX comes from as there is no such template in our theme. please restore the theme to it;s defaults, disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn. Also, you might want to update the theme and the visual composer plugin.
Thank you!

Hello JohnBull,
As you can see, this is a Visual Composer element and we only use this on our theme and was adjusted it with a bit of CSS for good results in theme. If this element was declared deprecated from Visual Composer stuff, you will have to replace with the newer tab from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/dFub3BTzTdL The difference between these two elements is about the classes. If you do not have a lot of TABS in your side, we recommend to re-make your TABS with the new element of Visual Composer. Another alternative would be to use the method Search and Replace. Before doing this method, please make a backup of your database and use a plugin like Search and Replace to rename you shortcode:
vc_tabs -> vc_tta_tabs
vc_tab -> vc_tta_section
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hi Ivan,
Thank you for your kind words.
Thie smart sidebar is a standard feature of the theme and it can be activated by adding the td-ss-row class to the row in visual composer that contains the sidebar widget: http://screencast.com/t/Grp1UJew
You can read more about smart sidebars here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/
Thank you!
Hi,
You can use this css to change the author name on block 7:
.td_block_7 .td-post-author-name a{
color:red!important;
}
However, this will affect all block 7 elements. If you only want to target a particular block, you need to assign an extra class to the row in visual composer and then add the class at the beggining of the code like so:
.mycustomclass .td_block_7 .td-post-author-name a{
color:red!important;
}
Thank you!
Hi
@robson2386 I’ve checked your site and noticed that when I access some posts the theme used to display them changes to newssetter: http://screencast.com/t/bj680EgsK9RR This is one of the those posts: http://motoday.pl/2015/06/16/bmw-serii-1-e87-jedyny-kompakt-z-napedem-na-tyl/ I am not sure why this happens but seems to affect site’s functionality and that’s why the featured image is not displayed on modules.
Make sure you have installed the Newsmag theme according with our documentation, also deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test the site again.
@haeluna I’ve checked your site and the theme works fine but you don’t have set the featured image for your post, that’s why there is no image displayed on homepage. Try to set some featured images for your posts: http://screencast.com/t/tDU3mo4C then test the site again.
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and noticed that your using an older version of the the and also Visual Composer plugin is outdated: http://screencast.com/t/y02wUfy7r Try tu update the theme at V 2.3.6 which is available on themeforest and also update VC at V 4.11.2 which is included in theme’s path. Here you can find our documentation about the update process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
@haronno you don’t need to put this thread down. If you managed to solve your issue we will consider it as closed.
Thanks!
Hello pedro,
If you want to display the Ad, using the module 13 for latest article option, you have to use the do_shortcode method and place the code in td_module_13.php. First of all, you have to create the code from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/WSsDj3xttlfk -> http://screencast.com/t/nrSIgUvY and then you have to create this code ->
<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1" spot_title="AD TEST"]');?> and then you have to place the code in the core file, corresponding to the module used by you, in this case, module 13. Please check this -> http://screencast.com/t/x2QpnMVe9
Please notice that you have to customize your ad box as you wish, depending on what you want to show in this ad. As an instance, above I gave you an example using the custom ad 1. Before you check the result, please ensure that you have added the code in custom ad 1 field from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/slwRK2ycOL92
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/dyHQ6SVuwq
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
i wrote some questions down, which I now want to ask you.
1. How can I edit the sidebar in catogory?
2. How can I make the theme update full automatically?
3. How is the menu build? How cann I put in the different categories with posts in the menu nav? I do not know how to edit the mega menu. in wordpress -> design- -> menu it is not possible.
4. What is the difference betwenn mobile and retina mobile ? both are not working. although I put in pictures. Watch hier attach: http://abload.de/img/unbenanntczsyj.png
5. http://gefrierschrank24.net/deniz/
Here you can see two buttons called “Über” and “Quelle”.
a) How can i make the buttons coloured? Example: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-26-most-anticipated-hotel-openings-in-2016/ at the top of the post called “Lifesstyle and Travel”
b) Why is Quelle shown to me? How can i edit this? Is it a category?
c) Is it only possible, to make one source?
d) How can I cateorize in more buttons? Like here http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-26-most-anticipated-hotel-openings-in-2016/ . At Tag there are more than just one button (awesome, beauty, boys..)
6. The filter function. How is it possible, just to display one specific post. I only can choose which category I want to show. But how can i choose a specific post?
7. Where can I find the child theme? Don’t you provide a child theme?
8. Why is this picture pixelated? Like here in footer: http://mein-testgelaende.de/
What size should the picture have?
9. On my other site: http://www.meinetestdomain.com/index.php/home-page-2/ visual composer is also activated. In the middle you can see a picture ( man ) at the faq section. Here you can see this: http://abload.de/img/unbenannt17wsx8.jpg
You can see, that if you sroll down, the pictures comes fluently. So from row to row it is a fluent transition. Here two questions:
a) How can I set that background image? Why is it on my other site possible and at the newspaper site with visual composer it is not possible? Although the settings are the same?
b) How can i make that fluent transition? I tried it here, bur it is not possible.

A lot of questions 🙂
Thanks for reply 🙂
Hi
I am using Newsmag and like it very much.
However as I begin my site I don’t have that much news so I am trying to eliminate a couple of sections in the demo.
I am using the Tech News template using the imported Tech News demo content.
In the Page editor, I am on the “News — Front Page” page, Visual Composer General tab and I see all of the “blocks” that control the top area of the page.
But I don’t see anything in there, for the home page, that controls the bottom area of the page, starting with the section called by default “Latest Articles”. It appears to be in a div called “.td-pb-article-list .td-ss-main-content”
I also want to eliminate the right side bar area starting with, in the demo “Stay Connected” It appears to be in a div called “td-ss-main-sidebar”
Where do I do that? (BTW I am keeping the footer area.)
Thanks!

Hello Sylvester77,
As a quick workaround, please try to use the following code to fix your issue. Please the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS Area.
The code is ->
.td-pb-span12 .td-slide-on-2-columns .td-slide-galery-figure {
width: 100%;
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/qMgjNbzMq
I suspect your problem that was caused by your untested plugins. Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
Thank you for the message!
Hello,
You do not need any other plugins except the ones that come bundled with the theme. visual composer is already in the package itself and can be installed from here: http://screencast.com/t/FyIBKdtd9ee
The best thing to do when starting out is read the documentation (top right of this page) There is a lot of useful information in there that will help you a great deal.
In order to edit the demo content you can simply access the dashboard and edit posts, categories and pages like you normally would in wordpress.
As for the homepage, there is no text to edit as there are only visual composer elements present: http://screencast.com/t/t746iJfrI
Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can also check our youtube page for video tutorials: https://www.youtube.com/user/tagdiv
Hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hi
When you’re using blog template the elements from Visual Composer can’t be added on page using the page-builder. However you can use do_shortcodefunction to display the big grid on blog page. Here is an example:
– first you need to get the grid’s shortcode. To do that add the desired grid on a blank page, set as you want then click on classic mode button to switch in back-end editor, copy the shortcode and paste inside do_shortcodefunction like here: http://screencast.com/t/GWIAj90xwep
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_big_grid td_grid_style="td-grid-style-4" category_id="19"][/vc_column][/vc_row]'); ?>
Thanks!
Hello GOT,
If you want to achieve the same layout, you have to reduce the padding-bottom for your Big Grid 4. Please try a bit of CSS code to do that and place it in Theme panel>Custom CSS area.
The code is ->
.td_block_big_grid_4{
padding-bottom: 2px;
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/07VOpBJBsv

Hi,
in order to target a specific block, you need to assign an extra class to the row in visual composer that contains the block in question like so: http://screencast.com/t/LVDogXpx and then use the code with the class you assign to the row like so:
.yourcustomclassname .td_block_9 .td-post-author-name, .td_block_9 .td-post-date{
display: none;
}
Thank you!
Hello, from reading here I assume there is now way of customizing the search-template with the visual composer…
I’d like to add the trending-now-bar on top of my search results,
how could I do that, please?
Thanks a lot!
