Search Results for 'use visual'

Hi

We’re sorry for any inconvenience you have encountered using our theme.
The theme is tested and feature images should be displayed without any changes in code. However checking your site I’ve found some errors in browser’s console which are related with theme’s js: http://screencast.com/t/A5oKnz8tg This errors may be caused by some plugins which conflicts with the theme or by some minifycation used for js. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using, remove the css/js minification then test the site again.

The theme can’t control the informations picked by Facebook sharer when a post is shared. Facebook looks for og tags and picks the details from these tags. To generate the og tags you can use a plugin like SEO By Yoast which is tested and works fine with our theme. Please check these links for more details in this regard: https://kb.yoast.com/kb/getting-open-graph-for-your-articles/ – https://yoast.com/social-media-optimization-with-wordpress-seo-by-yoast/
Another important aspect is server’s response time. Facebook won’t wait to long for requested data and if the server respond to slow some data will be skipped. Checking your site with google page-speed tool I’ve noticed that the response time is higher then 6s, please check the screen: http://screencast.com/t/2qMDqyDS2 Make sure that your server meets theme’s requirements and also ensure that the parameters from system status have the values indicated here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/

It is very likely that Facebook won’t anything about a new published post. Facebook handle a huge amount of data and a new published post won’t be indexed automatically. However you can force Facebook to update new posts by running a fresh scrape with debugger tool: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/debug/og/object/ – http://screencast.com/t/8rKTpv28f

Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Hi

Theme’s blocks we’re designed to work on 1/1, 1/3 and 23 columns: http://screencast.com/t/fN3T2xPSwV We didn’t tested 1/2 or 1/4 layout and there is no implementation for it, sorry.
You can filter posts by tag using wither post loop settings if you’re using page-builder+latest as page template: http://screencast.com/t/5otlX0agNtVp or from block settings for the content displayed with Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/FhVMFdsdoo
For more detail about page templates and block settings please refer to our documentation:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates-2/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
You can use the embed code and change the values for width and height as you want, here is an example: http://screencast.com/t/izfEUcYf296Y – http://screencast.com/t/ERGYIvyrF

Hi

The settings from theme panel should not be affected by theme’s update as they are stored in database which is not touched during the update. The settings may be lost only if the db is damaged or the reset function is used: http://screencast.com/t/RnjDahif4r5
Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge the cdn if you’re using then try to import the settings again.

Let us know ho it goes.
Thanks!

Hi

The theme use thumbs to display featured images on modules. From each image it’s cut a new thumb for each size defined theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/ktBuIKelyMm Checking your site I’ve noticed that you don’t have the thumbs properly generated. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear the caches then try to regenerate the thumbs again.

You can get the shortcode by clicking classic mode button in Visual Composer, the plugin will switch in back-end editor: http://screencast.com/t/yCJufRzCIrC

Thanks!

Did you try the normal fixes to solve the issue with your WordPress setup?

a) proper install of theme and plugins; disable plugins that came with former theme
b) check enough system resources per the theme system status
c) disable plugins you might be using that conflict with Visual Composer
d) clear cache in browser and on your site
e) RTFM (read the instructions)
f) turn off ad blocking or intrusive anti-virus that blocks your own WordPress admin panel
g) be very specific in WHAT does not save, where, and what you did to try to debug why YOUR setup isn’t working
h) review other topics on here as to how folks fixed their particular problem, such as using cloudflare the wrong way, or not clearing cache, etc. — only YOU can manage your own website — theme cannot fix things unrelated to itself, nor can others
i) if you ask for help, people here try to help
j) insults and the like help no-one

Tens of thousands of people using this theme for 3+ years use it every day; but not every web hosting setup is the same. If your setup works with “normal” WordPress settings and is up to date with latest secured version of WP, theme should work if properly installed.

Tech support offers help as time permits, in order received, and they do respond to everybody and all emails. And have always done so, as I can attest as long time user.

Don’t give up! Try to check some of the things mentioned above AGAIN, if done already — try changing to different web browser (e.g., CHROME); if you’re using broken old version of Safari on Windows, or similar, that can be issue also.

Helps to describe what you are doing and HOW you are doing it, and perhaps you will get some help.

Thanks! I use Visual Composer to build pages. Is the “avoid duplicates” function somewhere in VC? Or is it in some other page builder. I’m looking but don’t see it.

Thanks again for the help!

It’s the latest version of Newsmag 😉

From your Themeforest account, “downloads.”

new: added support for full height rows, column position and content position on them in Visual Composer.
new: added support for parallax speed on rows
new: added support for equal height inner rows and content placement
new: setting to hide the author name on modules and on single posts independently. Previously there was only one global setting.
new: Added support for custom fonts in theme panel that are uploaded via the wordpress media gallery. The custom fonts can be used just like before on most of the theme’s UI without writing any code
new: the weather widget now opens an input if it’s unable to locate the user via the browser’s location API.
misc: we fully rewrote the trending now block, it’s now leaner and it works better
misc: block parameters now have a better description
misc: code improvements to the following shortcodes: td_block_big_grid_slide, td_block_homepage_full_1, td_block_ad_box and the video playlists
misc: the media gallery that is used in the theme panel is now less cluttered and without the unused options

misc: drop caps font settings issue fix
misc: all the advertising blocks now support an ad title
misc: various google webmaster structured data issues have been fixed

HI

Please refer to our documentation for more details about how to use Visual Composer and customize the homepage: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/

Now to respond on this specific matter are two ways to achieve the desired result:
– use a 2/3+1/3 layout for pages like here: http://screencast.com/t/gtxjGSH5I – http://screencast.com/t/5GH0TAfZtad
– add it as a widget in sidebar from Appearance > widgets: http://screencast.com/t/epP6x6XKtR – http://screencast.com/t/JubydjNv3Oq

Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Hi

The theme does not control the registration process, it only make the widget used in this regard. WordPress handle login/registration process so it could be a conflict with some plugin or a miss-configuration from the server. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge the cdn if you’re using and test the site again.

Hope this helps!
Thanks!

Catalin,
Thank you for your reply. I’m not sure that I understand your comment concerning not being able to compare the two sites?
On my laptop and external monitor the http://newstest.meta-morphos.es/ home page looks the same when the mobile plugin is turned on or off. The only difference I see is when I view the site from my mobile phone. The mobile plugin reduces the front page to a vertical stack of scrolling blocks.

I’ve now removed all CSS fron the ‘newstest’ site and only have the Visual Composer and Slider Revolution plugins activated. The one customization is that I replaced the original top left column block with one Revolution slider block. One a large monitor the front page looks AOK and displays the same on Firefox and Chrome. When I view it on the mobile phone it almost displays correctly but the left margin is shifted left and crops off some of the text. The right column doesn’t display well.

It appears that one solution is to use it with this one customization and with the mobile plugin turned on. On mobile viewing it abbreviates the front page content but at least displays a usable vertical scrolling stack of info blocks.

Is it possible to turn off the Magazine themes default effort to transform the standard site into a responsive version?

That is, to have the complete site page (without mobile plugin) displayed on mobile screens and simply scaled down to fit the mobile or tablet window? I have this option with a framework theme and the mini display of the complete web page works fine. One simply zooms in to select the menu or view areas of the page.(Please see; http://www.kaufmanndesign.com)

This would provide a simple solution for several issues. The pages could still handle iframes, and there would be no surprises for any pages customized with CSS. If a page look good on a normal screen, then it would look fine on a mobile screen. Maybe this setting option is somewhere in the theme settings?

It’s a bit of a surprise that with 50+ Visual Composer elements and blocks as standard tools on the Newspaper theme that it’s not possible to shift a few around without breaking the theme. In the Magazine/Newspaper theme, is it primarily the first top left column block that’s critical to hold the page together as originally intended?

Thanks, Lon K

Hi

You can use Visual Composer page-builder to add/delete blocks from pages.
