Hi There,
just in case you are not busy enough, we are trying to sell our background ad per category, so it will really help to have this in your next update.
thx
Hi,
You would need additional customization for this as unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an option for this. You could create a condition here: http://screencast.com/t/NiErLilxODSL and set different ads to be loaded based on categories as you like.
I suggest you search an use a plugin for this or get someone to help you implement it as unfortunately we cannot offer custom work because we work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support. You can always get a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks
Hi,
I have added this on our todo list and we will consider it for future updates.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
Thanks Chris!
@clearwood
The Visual Composer Frontend Editor button was removed from the theme as it’s not compatible with theme blocks.
I think you can leave it if you want, should work with the default elements but you should consider this if you have issues.
You can enable it like this: http://screencast.com/t/ObPqoA4By

We will test it and we will release an update with the new version of VC as soon as they will fix issues that apparently they have with the current version. You can see their forum for more info: http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431/comments?page=332
Thanks
Hi,
We will release an update with the new version of VC as soon as they will fix issues that apparently they have with the current version.
I have also tested this and haven’t found any issue: http://screencast.com/t/XH1Xit8MtTo
Please provide a link so I can inspect this.
Thanks
Hi Lucian,
Thank you very much for the quick replay. That’s really a pitty, because I can’t work with two or more “theme-platforms” for each language.
I know, I should haved looked before buying, but think I need another theme now. The style and look of newsmag was my favourite and it is a bestseller with a good forum:)
I can’t afford to pay a developer for this project, because it is a private one – kind of family project for fun. I payed for a nice theme, but wouldn’t go any further, because the site doesn’t bring any money in (for now). New theme would be cheaper?!
Guess it very difficult to support WPML and what’s after an update?
I also think it’s your job:) It’s such a successful theme! Can’t you get a license and test things with WP multilinguale plugin? If you could try it in the next weeks, I would wait….for an update.
I guess WPM would help you, because of your nice theme.
This would be great news!
Thanks!
Hello there,
Do you have any updates ?
Thank you
@karlos We will update that!
Thanks for reporting it!
Hi,
Unfortunately we cannot offer custom work at this point as we time dons’t allow us to do do any type of custom work and we also work hard on the development, updates, fixes and support. You can always get a freelancer from sites like: http://studio.envato.com/ if you don’t know how to do it yourself.
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately I can offer you an accurate answer about this as we haven’t made any tests with the wpml plugin and from other reports we have the theme is not fully wpml ready at this point.
If you really need this, my advice is to hire a professional developer to help you adjust the theme code to be wpml ready.
The qTranslate plugin was initially tested and offered as solution for adding multilingual content and translation support but since it hasn’t been updated we haven’t tested it recently. As an alternative, you can use the qTranslate X plugin which is a descendant of qTranslate, which has apparently been abandoned by the original author.
If you own a wpml license you can also ask about this implementation on their support forum.
Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for understating!
hi! thanks for the reply!
by the way, i updated my WPBakery Visual Composer – followed your instructions here, but when i checked the plugins –> 
did i miss anything?
Hi, Thanks for the reply.
I understand that others may be using it, but the “off” feature doesn’t work. I have the box selected as off and the code shows up in the source on page view. So i manually removed the code.
Also Google does not support authorship anymore, so not sure why anyone would want to use it?
Nonetheless, it would be great if the “off” feature really worked so I do not have to remove it everytime there is an update.
Please?
=)
Nope. You can only update the version included with the theme, when the theme is updated.
See the theme docs, right side of page for more info.
Or, the “sticky topic” top of the forum:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-update-visual-composer-2/
Visual Composer released a new version (4.4)
Should I update to this version?
If you’re running WordPress 4.1, make sure you have Visual Composer 4.3.5 installed, and if not you will need to get the latest version of the theme via your themeforest account and update your site. WordPress 4.1 “broke” the visual editor, hence the theme update.
Some plugins conflict – so nothing for the TagDiv folk to “fix” on your end; try turning off all plugins except Visual Composer, then turn each one on until you find the “bad” plugin. You would then need to either not use that plugin, which might not have been updated to work with WP 4.1, or get a fix from that plugin developer.
The VC works perfectly on tens of thousands of websites, and so the “fix” is to determine which plugin is causing the problem 🙂
try disabling all your site plugins, except for Visual Composer.
If you are using a caching system, or you see a big [clear cache] button in your admin (as with GoDaddy), you need to clear that.
With only the theme active and Visual Composer active. Hit refresh [F5] on one of your post pages; the “view counter” should increment by 1 when you do so. Did that work?
If so, then turn on your other plugins one by one and re-test until you find the plugin which is breaking the theme.
Only you can do this, as you need to learn to manage your own website.
If you are using a caching system/plug-in you need to use an advanced setting in the theme to enable “ajax counter” capability; where the theme attempts to use javascript (JS) to increment the counter, since the caching would normally preclude or block that from working (e.g., the idea of caching is to serve up a page which does not change; so how can the counter change on the page if it’s cached and not actually being served as new page – logical, right?).
This is the best way to “debug” why your particular instance does not work.
Then post an update here with a sample page link to one of your posts, if you can’t get it working. 🙂
Yes, as stated:
Actually, the theme folks *do* put in code to stop the “nag screen” from showing up, but the people at VC keep changing their product, and so that keeps coming back when it really shouldn’t.
I have one website where I have 3 nag items right now; but all 3 have bugs and so can’t be updated until fixed; so I just ignore them. I concentrate on the content, SEO, growing readership and get on with my life. Highly recommended. You’ll go nuts worrying about the pesky updates.
I agree. Kind of annoying, though. But not strictly a “theme issue” — but a plugin issue, and Tagdiv does their best to work around that.
Whew! I’ll shut up about this now! 🙂
Ha! yeah… one of my clients uses GoDaddy, and the fact they have a major caching plugin running which has to be cleared TWICE for any updates is a pain in the keister. 🙂
Chris,
The real issue is that theme creates a false positive that an update is available. It shouldn’t do that.

Lane
Hi,
That code is used for the author box feature which you can use on the posts. We will investigate and fix it in future versions but we cannot remove it as others use it.
You can use the child theme to edit the file and remove that code in your case or edit the file after each update and remove it.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
Thanks for the message!
I refer to VC plugin. Now I have updated the VC plugin and It doesn’t report any error. Hope It is fixed now.
Hi,
Thanks Chris, that’s right! We first have to test it, we will release an update with the new version of VC as soon as they will fix issues that apparently they have with the current version: http://screencast.com/t/MhULCZhfr

Hi,
td_module_blog.php is included in the last update: http://tagdiv.com/td_deploy/Newspaper/changed_files_4.5_4.6.html
You should have it if you use the newspaper theme, please follow this path ..NewspaperTheme\includes\modules\module_modifier\td_module_blog.php: http://screencast.com/t/z0ERmxU6
Thanks!
Hi,
Unfortunately the theme doesn’t have an option for this and you would need additional customization for it. If you need it you can get some to help you with this and alter the slider’s css as you like, it’s not an easy task and you would need custom work for that which we cannot provide at this time as we work on updates/development and support. I suggest you to get someone to help you with this if you need it and don’t know to do it.
Sorry for the inconvenience!
