- TutorialsHow to Update the WPBakery Page Builder plugin
Hello,
If you have the latest version of the theme and the latest version of the visual composer plugin ,there should not be any issues. We have no such reports yet. I have inspected your site and the homepage is intact. The slider is present and working.
Maybe there is a plugin that you use that is no longer compatible with the latest version of the theme. This can happen as code gets changed and plugins can no longer recognize it. Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Please provide more details to the exploits you found. What tool did you use to scan so we can investigate this and see if there really is an exploit. (“tools” are usually not very accurate)
Thank you!
Hi,
It’s best to use the browser inspector if you want to alter the css as you can see a visual representation of the css: https://forum.tagdiv.com/create-custom-code-using-the-browsers-inspector/
Thank you!
Hello,
The website is http://www.stiintasitehnica.com
A month ago, we updated the wordpress and the theme
Almost everything went well, except the visual composer
The colored icon redirects to vc.wpbakery.com, to buy the page builder plugin.
So we use Classic Mode only to modify articles in the main slider.
Now we tried to update to the last version of the theme
And the homepage slider dissapears
Also, we encountered some security issues
After a scan, we discoverd exploits in the following plugins:
– wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/footer88.php
– wp-content/plugins/jetpack/json-endpoints/class.wpcom-json-api-get-customcss.php
– wp-content/plugins/td-social-counter/widget/cache.php
– wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo/admin/formatter/class-metabox-formatter.php
Any idea is welcome 🙂
tnx,
Oraan
Hi,
If you choose to have a blog homepage, meaning you selected the latest posts in the WP settings, then you do not have access to visual composer on that page. You can only choose the layout settings from here: http://screencast.com/t/TZtEJaz4F6z
You can only use visual composer on static pages, not on the blog page.
Thank you!
Hi,
We have tested also the beta version before the release and did not found any issues. Also we(support team) use latest wordpress version on our local install and we did not found any issues. So it should work properly.
@Piyush Bandi I suggest to disable all your plugins except Visual Composer , clear all the caches and see if the issue persist as we did not found any issues using wordpress 4.6. I think that a plugin you use cause this error.
Thanks!
Hi,
We also use wordpres 4.6 on our local install and also we have tested the beta version before the release but we did not found any issues with the category tag on post page.
Please disable all your plugins except Visual Composer to make sure that it is not a plugin issue and also clear all your caches.
Let us know and provide a link where you get this issue so we can inspect it.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. It is most likely a plugin conflict. ALso if you have any redirect rules set, you might want to check those as well.
Also please update your theme to the latest version by following this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and also update your visual composer plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hello,
this happens because in your new posts you use visual composer on posts even for your text. Please only use the standard mce editor and add simple text so it can wrap around the featured image. If you use visual ocmposer text boxes, they cannot wrap around the image.
Thank you!
Hi,
In order to target these links, you need to assign a custom class to the row containing them in visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/meJp1GMh Then you can use this css using the class you gave the row::
.imagelinks .wpb_text_column a{
color:red;
}
.imagelinks .wpb_text_column a:hover{
color:blue;
text-decoration:none;
}
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately you cannot as the mobile theme does not use visual composer in order to provide the best loading times. Please read this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
If you want to have blocks on your mobile version you can simply disable the mobile theme plugin and use the standard responsive version of the theme.
Thank you!
Hello,
The errors seem to be related to the mobile theme files. Please make sure the file structure is intact. Please remove your current theme install and use one of these 2 methods to install the new version of the theme. Download the theme again from envato and use that package to install the theme:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-wordpress/
Please also make sure you disable all plugins except visual composer. clear cache and reset cdn files as plugin conflicts can also affect the theme elements.
Also please make sure you update visual composer. You need version 4.12 installed for the latest theme version to work properly: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hello,
You can create any page using visual composer and set it up as a shop page. Here is an example of a custom page built in visual composer for a shop: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_tech/shop/
Woocommerce ads blocks in visual composer you can use on any page: http://screencast.com/t/3c3awjKIiA
Thank you!
Hi,
Everything was fine until we updated Visual Composer to new version. Now the sidebar is not working on the homepage.
Please see here: http://www.israellycool.com/
For the Homepage, I have used Visual Composer. I have a 2/3+1/3 layout with a Block 11 and Widgetized Sidebar.
Any ideas what has gone wrong?
Regards,
David
Hi,
Thank you for your support.
I don’t understand it. I don’t see the options for the Visual Composer. I get this messenger. Hola! Would you like to receive automatic updates and unlock premium support? Please activate your copy of Visual Composer.
I don’t wan’t to pay 35 dollar to use it because I have already pay for this theme and it’s a hobby webpage.
Can you tell me how I can fix this so I can use this theme?

Hi,
Please check this guide how to use Visual Composer pagebuilder – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ The tagdiv blocks were designed for 1,2 or 3 columns like you can see also on our live demo – http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/
Let us know if you have other questions related to the theme.
Thanks!
Hi,
Please make sure you use the latest theme version 7.3 and the latest Visual Composer provided with the theme 4.12. Here you can find a guide to update the theme(if it is necessarily) – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and update also the Visual Composer – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks!
Hi,
We thought it was self explanatory that you need to have a sidebar (an 1/3 column) in order to have a smart sidebar. You can’t have a sidebar in another type of layout as our theme only supports these column settings: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Thank you!
Hi,
Both these icons should have the same url since there is only one option to change the url in the theme panel under the social networks tab. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Then test the social links again. if you still have trouble with this please contact us via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can login and investigate. Please also include a link to this topic.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please use thew ‘adrotate’ plugin to test this out. This way you are eliminating the theme ad system and using the plugin. If adrotate will display the ads, it means there is a theme related issue. If adrotate is not able to show the ad as well, then it’s a google issue. Please do this so we can rule out any theme conflicts. You can also try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files so you can rule out a plugin conflict as well.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have tested your video on my end but it does not get cut off: http://screencast.com/t/Vb2kWKlBg
Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it.
Let us know if you still have trouble with this.
Thank you!
HI
You added an ad-box on your homepage using Visual Composer and there is selected the header and to be displayed: http://screencast.com/t/EwLUF3uI9u9S To remove that ad edit the homepage and delete the ad-box. For more details about how to use Visual Composer please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-use-visual-composer/
Thanks!
@dritanleka
best to start new topic unless that question is related to visual composer asking about activation.
See the theme docs right side of page….
read through the how to install theme, AND the plugins;
then see how to load demo “styles” to look like any of the demos.
You normally have to either use a pre-set style, or build your own layout for the home page how you want it.
Hi there! Your theme is great. I have an existing wordpress site which has a custom post type “dog” and custom taxonomy “listing-type.” I want to use your blocks which are added to visual composer, but they only support entering the custom post type, not a custom query or custom taxonomies. Is there any workaround for this? I’m great with wordpress coding and could easily add a filter or something to the functions.php file if you have code for adding another field to the “filter” section for the custom taxonomy. I’ve also seen some VC blocks for post grids where they allow you to write your own query string like “post_type=dog&taxonomy=listing-type&term=available&count=1&orderby=title”
Thanks!
I recently moved our site over to the Newspaper 7 theme (not from a previous Tag Div theme) and both Visual Composer and Newspaper 7 are updated to their latest versions and so is WordPress.
Our home page (static front page selected via the customizer) is a no-sidebar full width page template (Page Attribute: Default, Sidebar position: no-sidebar template selected). We use Google DFP for delivering our header advert and the header advert works perfectly on our home page and all posts that have a sidebar layout post template.
For some reason though, except for the front/home page, all newly created and existing pages or posts that use a no-sidebar full width layout the header ad does not appear with the Newspaper 7 theme. Even if I set up a new page with all settings exactly the same as our home page, the header ad still does not appear on the new page but it does appear on our home page.
In the Theme Panel, under Template Settings – Page Template: the CUSTOM SIDEBAR + POSITION is set to no-sidebar but I have tried every possible combination of theme panel default vs page attribute setting vs sidebar position setting but can never get the header ad to show on any no-sidebar page template or post template except for the Home page. The header ad only seems to work on pages and posts when a sidebar template is selected.
Could you please urgently assist with this as obviously it limits our layout options quite a bit if we cannot get the header advert to show on any no-sidebar pages or posts except for the home page.
Thank you.
Ps. Please get in touch with me via e-mail as I would like to keep the conversation and URL private. Thank you.
Hi,
I have checked your site and adsense seems to display fine now on every device: http://screencast.com/t/gPT76pxwFFZ
I also saw another problem regarding your social counter. Please update it as newspaper 7 requires the latest version of the social counter. Disable and delete files from the plugins section and install the social counter again from the newspaper 7 theme package. Also, your visual composer version is 4.11 which can be problematic. Please update it to 4.12 as it is required by newspaper 7.3. Use this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
