Search Results for 'use visual'

So, on the home page you can add your own text boxes with content … theme cannot invent content for you.

So, in our case, for example we have a text box with h1 tag which is short description of what the site is about.

Above certain news sections we have h2 tags on sub-heads “Book Reviews”…

You don’t need <h3> tags on ‘headlines’ on front page as they are ephemeral and have no SEO value; only persistent elements.

SO, if you use Visual Composer or TD composer, simply experiment with adding your own content.

[slider———-][sidebar]
[text box with h1]
[block of stories]
[text box with h2]

Really up to YOU to decide how you want to lay out, design, and create your site content.

Good luck!

Hi

You can use the default page template for pages and the latest article list won’t be displayed anymore: http://screencast.com/t/LSCtGTxkwUx
You can use top bar 3 for layout: http://screencast.com/t/9qbbYUnC then use this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css: http://screencast.com/t/d3ceP227f

.td-header-sp-top-menu {
float: none!important;
}
.menu-top-container{
float: right!important;
}

Please make sure that the parameters from system status have the values indicated here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ and also try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches then test the site again.

Let us know ho it goes.
Thanks!

Hi

@LPnm you can’t use a sidebar created with Visual Composer in post content, that sidebar can be used only where Visual Composer is used. However you can create a new sidebar and add widgets in it from Appearance > Widgets: http://screencast.com/t/h4hoqCcpHa – http://screencast.com/t/xGi1IQptJwP7 After the sidebar is set you just need to choose it for each post where you want it displayed.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Hi

Please note that td-composer plugin is still in beta version and is possible to appear some issues with its functionality. The plugin is mostly tested with Newspaper theme but it should also work with Newsmag. Try to use Visual Composer plugin which is included in theme’s patch and check how it goes. https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Let us know how it goes and if the problem persist please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible, also include a link to this topic.

Hi

The theme has been developed to be fast but it may still need configurations on this matters so test your site using google’s page speed insights testing tool(or gtmetrix) and try to follow the instructions indicated there to optimize the server. Also make sure that the parameters from system status have the values indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ You can also try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer to reduce the queries and use mysql query cache to improve the loading speed: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/query-cache.html For more details about you can check our documentation in page-speed regard: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-make-the-site-faster/

” A possible solution would be to add support for Visual Composer in mobile theme but for the moment we don’t plan to add this feature as will defeat theme’s purpose”

70% of the internet is on mobile now. Even google is almost ready to go “Mobile first” for their ranking algorithm and everything. So, I can’t ignore mobile speed and optimization but at the same time, just because of speed, we are killing almost all other features that Newspaper has to offer. It’s so ironic that the whole documentation for Newspaper mobile theme can be written on just one full-length page but it’s been used 70-80% of the time ( in terms of traffic). Hence , we are doing everything for 20-30% traffic but not for the major portion 🙁

I also feel that just because now you have created a separate plugin for the mobile theme, psychologically , you might be putting less effort in making further mobile optimization in your parent theme. Since you might be thinking that you have already achieved 300-400% more optimization on mobile theme so, if someone needs speed, you have a ‘ ready answer’ to ask them to use “Mobile theme” . but that time, neither user, nor you think that in that case, the whole awesome “Newspaper” theme will become the simplest blog theme which has nothing to offer other than speed in terms functionality;

So, Please give enough time to mobile theme feature updates and then you can give an option to “enable and disable” visual composer for mobile theme.

In fact, for the main theme too, we should have the option to disable or enable “loading of extra codes” page. post or categories basis to optimize it fully. We are using hard-coded shortcodes and smart list options in our various posts, so, if we even think to change the theme in future, it is going to break the site. So, it’s highly unlikely that we are ever going to change the theme.

Therefore we have high hopes from TagDiv.

Thank you.

Hi

Mobile theme can’t be disabled only for a specific page, sorry. When is used it will affect or change the entire site. A possible solution would be to add support for Visual Composer in mobile theme but for the moment we don’t plan to add this feature as will defeat theme’s purpose. Mobile theme was intent to be fast and many feature were removed to increase the speed. For the moment the only way to use Visual Composer on mobile devices is by using the main theme.

Thanks!

Hi

Please make sure that you’re suing V 4.1 of Social Counter plugin which is included in theme’s patch and also make sure that you add your google plus user like here: http://screencast.com/t/Pzo4iKM5 Also try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer and Social Counter, clear all caches then test the site again.

Let us know ho it goes.
Thanks!

Hi

Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer Composer, clear all caches then test the site again. Usually this issue occur because of Jetpack mobile theme module which conflicts with our theme so try to deactivate this module and check how it goes.

Thanks!

HI

I am not sure why this happens but it could be an issue caused by some plugins. Try to deactivate all plugins excerpt Visual Composer, deactivate the child theme, clear all caches, purge the cdn if you’re using then test the site again.
Let us know ho it goes.
Thanks!
