Thanks for this Andrei, but where do I get this patch_2.3.5_2.3.6 folder ?
I went on my Theme Forest account, I downloaded the theme as explained here : https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/, I opened it, but I couldn’t find andy patch_2.3.5_2.3.6 folder.
Thanks in advanced.
Hi
I assume that you’re referring at post’s excerpts: http://screencast.com/t/LZMw9hsHL3 The excerpt’s font can be changed from theme panel > theme fonts > modules and blocks general: http://screencast.com/t/AwJ0R2JB
Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css to hide the logo fro footer: http://screencast.com/t/PMPJzvrZkLsj
.footer-logo-wrap{
display: none!important;
}
Also I’ve noticed that you’re using V 2.3.5 of the theme and the feature images aren’t displayed on the page. Try to update the theme at the current version available on themeforest, V 2.3.6 and also update Visual Composer plugin at V 4.11.2 which is included in theme’s path. Here you can check our documentation for more details regarding the update process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thanks!
unfortunately I have to ask again .. i use this method but but since the last update is my error.log fully with this messages:
PHP Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class ‘td_video_support’ does not have a method ‘on_save_post_get_video_thumb’ in /xxx/wp-includes/plugin.php
and constantly tells me wp that the connection is broken and it takes some time until you can do something on the page again.
any idear what i can do to fix this problem?
Hi
You can find the changed file in patch_2.3.5_2.3.6 folder. You can use that patch to update the theme without loosing your current customizations. Just replace the old files with the ones from patch and the update will be made.
We didn’t changed any of loop/single files in last theme update. With regard at child theme there are no additional changes made so your code should work fine. There would be a chance to appear some issues with sidebar position on page. If this happens go to appearance > widgets and drag the widget from footer 3 to footer 1: http://screencast.com/t/ZZQZ6eU9
Visual Composer plugin can be updated without any risks as the actual page structure will be kept.
Also before making any change make sure you do a full backup of your current wp-install and to the database also: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Thanks!
When you use WordFence it is the new firewall function(https://www.wordfence.com/blog/2016/04/wordfence-announces-firewall-threat-defense-feed/).
You have to set the “Firewall Status” to “Learning Mode” and save it. After that you have to update the theme panel. After that you can set the “Firewall Status” again to “Enabled and Protecting”. So the functions of the theme panel are whitelisted.
You find the Firewall here: https://urltowebsite.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=WordfenceWAF
I do lots of images and banners with the single image block, and I often make those images with full-width and set that block to “stretch row and content (no paddings) setting. But ever since I updated the theme, it shows a slight border/margin/padding on either side.
How can I fix this?
Here’s an example: http://shilpaahuja.com/fashion/looks/indian-engagement-gown-blue-dress-outfit-bridal-hairstyle/ The top image is supposed to be ‘no paddings’, but it does have slight paddings on either side. This is an old post, so it used to display fine before.
Hi,
Between last week and his week, there was a big change and you probably had it set to automatic. WordPress got updates. This broke visual composer so you will have to update the plugin .the version you showed in your clip is 4.9.2 You will have to download the latest version of the theme and install visual composer 4.11.2 to get it working with the current version of WP.
Thank you!
Hello samyprez,
The latest version of WordPress (4.5) ‘broke’ the Visual Composer and create some errors through plugin’s functionalities. Please notice that you need to do the update to the latest version of Visual Composer (4.11.2), clear all cache and check the results after this.
Hope this helps!
Thank you for the message!
Hi there,
Unfortunately the designers who have arranged my Newsmag theme, have dumped me alone with my updates….
In order to update the latest Newsmag version without erasing their design work (for which I spent a lot), I have a few questions :
1- Are there any essential files to be uploaded, in order to update the whole theme ? My idea is to upload only these essential files, in order to save the actual design.
2- Does the new updated make changes on any loop-x.php files ? If not, I would save the actual ones in order to save some actual classes.
3- What about Newsmag Child, any updates in it or can I keep it as it is ?
3- What about vc_template, any updates in it or can I keep it as it is ?
Thanks in advanced.
Hi
@paralaxe Please address us via email at contact@tagdiv.com including a link to this conversation and also give us wp-access so we can have a closer look at this and we will get back to your as soon as possible.
@rodrigochiquito I’ve checked your site and images are loaded fine now: http://screencast.com/t/nvM3fjLuy
@galollero I’ve checked your site and images are loaded fine now, however I’ve noticed that you’re using an older version of Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/zCd1rbLo If you have any issues with page editing update the plugin at V 4.11.2 which is included in theme’s path, clear all caches and test again. Here you can check our documentation regarding the update process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
@ybs also update Visual Com poser plugin.
Thanks!
Hi,
I will ad this suggestion to our list of updates and hopefully in a future version of the theme we will be able to implement it. Until such time you can maybe find a plugin that has such options.
Thank you!
Hi
Please update the theme and Visual Composer plugin at the latest version available on themeforest as your images aren’t visible. Here you can find our documentation for more details 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/
Also deactivate all plugins except Viual; Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test again.
Let me know if you need further assistance on this.
Thanks!
Hello Harrison,
Please notice that the latest version of WordPress ‘broke’ the Visual Composer and you need to install the latest version of this (4.11.2). For updating the theme, you have 3 way to do it -> installing via FTP (recommended), via WordPress or automatically update via Envato Toolkit. For more information about these ways, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-automatically-update-newspaper-theme/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Thank you for your understanding!
Was just curious if there is an update with support for multiple websites?
And if there might be a way we can purchase a multi domain license?
Can we just pay you directly for a theme license? Would rather you have more of the money than envato 🙂 Perhaps https://stripe.com/subscriptions if you can get a bank in https://stripe.com/global
Hi… againg. I though I had Newspaper updated but I was wrong. I installed updated using Envato Toolkit.
But when I tried to install VC seend me this messege: “destination folder already exist…”

Hi,
Just after the new update, I have noticed that the visual composer is not working. Can you please help to troubleshoot the error.
Thanks!
Andrei
you might consider adding a new section in the right menu under “Documentation” (below that).
New section:
TOP ISSUES
> WP 4.5 Images Not Loading
> WP 4.5 V. Composer Not Working
> Activate/Update Visual Composer
I’ve seen something like this on other support forums; it really saves the same 20 posts from customers who don’t know how to “scroll back” in forum to find answers to the same topic, so it gets posted over and over and over. Makes it hard for others to keep on “actual” issues that might impact us.
Just suggestion — would save you a ton of support time, to simply have a single locked “answer” for any breaking issue each time it happens vs 50-100 Q/A posts for identical issue.
Hey @andrei_luca,
So I did what you said, updated both the theme and Visual Composer. I’ve cleared my caches (caching plugin, my personal computer, and my CDNs) and I’m still not able to save changes. When I click “Save Settings” that animated square just stays there. I’ve already gone through and checked to see if it was a plugin that’s interfering, but that doesn’t seem to be the case. Im not really sure what else to do.
Hi
All page content and settings are stored in database and won’t be lost when the plugin is updated. However as a security measure do a full backup to your current wp-install and the database: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Thanks!
I have done the above steps, good that visual composer got updated to the latest version. But its asking to activate it. Please find the screenshots.
Hello,
I am facing the same issue’s as many others I’m afraid. I cannot edit any published “pages” with visual composer. pages that are in a draft state or new pages seem to function ok. But anything published the VC ball just keeps spinning.
I updated the theme through automatic update using the Envato theme updater plugin. I have ruled out 3rd party plugins, disabling them all except VC. I’ve disabled, deleted and reinstalled the plugin as well, changed my home page to draft and back to published, no joy. Not sure where to go from here
Please help
Hello Thank you for getting back. I do love the theme, and understand that creating such a robust theme that you are bound to run into issues here and there. I am however not under any illusion that there’s a magic button to make rankings go up, but I had hoped that some important seo elements would be implemented into the home page such as the H1/H2 title tags etc so that I may concentrate on content. I will patiently wait for the update as you suggested to @Mayapur Voice. Thank you for your support
