Before the composer update from yesterday, everything works fine.
It is very complicated with updates, so much to be careful, why is that?
Are there any plugins that donÂŽt work with the composer?
Switch to default wordpress theme
Turn off all plugins
Delete old vc plugin completely
Install new plugin
Turn on vc plugin
Rest theme
Test, then turn on other plugins.
You should turn off all caching before doing any updates.
Hope that helped.
Thank you for the quick reply @Christopher – I tried hard to get it to execute the short code in <php given the above information. I was hoping it was just me and my noobness. Maybe there can be a site wide trending now ticker that can be enabled in a future update?
Just updated the js-composer plugin following the directions from:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
My Visual composer is still broken, showing the exact same behaviors as before: Trying to drag an column item bugs it out.
Should I update the entire theme instead?
Theme docs also helpful
https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/
Yes; you can update the plugin by itself.
Theme docs are super useful also:

Download from your ThemeForest account where you purchased it. While there on your “download” page you can also check the box to get auto emails announcing when there is an update with direct download link.
I am a licensed user of Newspaper V 3.5 – where do I get the updated version?
I can update the WPBakery Visual Compose plugin without updating the entire theme?
Hi Lucian
Sorry a bit late getting back to you – I did try at the time, it didn’t work, I went back to it today having updated to 4.6.1 but still no success.
What I am trying to do is have only a san serif Helvetica / Arial (I have more fonts than this named in my css) .

Hello
I’ve been trying to get my site back to normal after carrying out the update but failed. I’ve just restored the site using a backup and it’s still not working properly.
The Visual Bakery page builder is not showing at all. I’m unable to correct a problem with an extra Big Slide appearing under the correct one!
Could you take a look at it please and advise? I can give you the admin log-in.
Cheers!

I tried to update WPBakery Visual Compose and the following error occurred:
“To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer”
Question: Do I need to buy an extra license for WPBakery Visual Compose to use the Newspaper theme?
Thank you for your response.

I received an email from Themeforest that there is a new update for the Newspaper theme. I have downloaded the zip-file, but when I upload the zip-file into my WordPress it is not possible to upload because there is already such a file.
How can I install the new update?
Thank you for your response
Marcel
I managed to enable the envato auto update, which updated the theme. Unfortunately Visual Composer: Page Builder did not update! only the theme
Gianny, can you tell me how to do the theme update?
thanks so much
Just found an easy solution. Update the theme to v4.6.1. Latest version of Visual Composer module (4.35) is included in this update.
Hi I purchased the newspaper Theme which included Visual Composer: Page Builder for WordPress as part of the package. Recently Visual Composer: Page Builder released an update, howver a valid licence key is required to update. is TAGDIV providing the key so we can update?
Anyone else had this problem?
I can confirm that the Visual Composer update does fix the drag and drop issue. And yes I do have a license to Visual Composer.
Fortunately, I have not been updating wordpress. :v
Add this line in wp-config.php to prevent wordpress perform automatic updates in the future. So we can sleep in peace with newsmag… hehehehehe đ
define( 'AUTOMATIC_UPDATER_DISABLED', true );
define( 'WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false );
well i ran the update over the ftp, but visual composer plugin is still asking for an update..
did i do somethig wrong or should i disable and delte the plugin Visual composer before i ran the update?
thx
Ok back to update. Tried that route and same thing but it still doesn’t make sense how the image with Branches (3rd photo down in post) is able to sit as tagdiv fullwidth, but the one I uploaded can’t and won’t work in the same post. Kinda weird. My image is set to be like 500px wide and still nothing, also tried 640px and 600px wide.
You can look at the changelog from the “all files” download file; primarily it’s a download today to provide the fix for Visual Composer which broke with the launch of WordPress 4.1.
The theme cannot auto-update via WordPress as it’s a commercial theme, not hosted at the WordPress.org theme system.
It works for me in IE8 on Windows XP.
However, this was with WordPress 4.01 and not the latest 4.1 released yesterday and last version of Visual Composer.
It’s possible WP 4.1 added something which would cause the theme not to work, or it could be related to the bugs in Visual Composer related to WP 4.1 — have you updated your copy of Visual Composer to the NEW version of VC released today 11.19.14 from the theme download for Newsmag? That might fix it.
