Hi
I am not sure why this happened but you can try to deactivate all plugins clear all caches then try to update the theme and Visual Composer again as it is indicated in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
If you use child theme deactivate it during the update process.
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.
Thanks!
Hi
I’ve checked the site again and noticed that you’re using child theme. Try also to deactivate the child theme as it may cause some issues, also remove any css/js minifications then try again.
If you still can’t manage to solve this try to setup a new wp-install on a sub-domain following this configuration:
– WordPress V 4.4.3
– Newspaper theme V 7.3
– Visual Composer V 4.12
Do a few tests with this configuration and check how it goes.
Thanks!
Hello jciview,
I have checked your website and I saw that you have some js.erors in your console. These might come from your untested plugins which interfere with our theme and cause a lot of unknown issues. Please try to disable all of them, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all your caches and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
I have this problem too, and I fix it by updating the Visual Composer that comes with theme update. Please read this post to get more details.
Hope you may find this useful.
Hello Catalin,
Thanks for your reply. Ok, i can see the thumbnail sizes in the theme options, But i still didn’t get it.
1) For example, i can see the thumb size (100×70) is used for: Module 6,7 and Block 1, 2, 7, 8, 16
– What does module 6, 7 refers to? Is it in the prebuilt demos?
2) On my home page, i’m using one of the pre-built demos.. and in the visual composer editor, i can see “Big Grid 7”, as shown here: https://s31.postimg.org/uldmsstwr/Visual_composer.jpg
– Does the Block 7 in the theme options refers to the Big Grid 7 in Visual composer?!
3) The image i’ve uploaded earlier as a featured image was 504 × 544 (which is a large image, however it wasn’t showing right as shown here): https://s32.postimg.org/bdub5yp79/image_resize.jpg
So, my other question is: What is the recommended image size for featured images to show correctly on homepage? without having the need to regenerate thumbnails?
Thanks for your help & patience
Hello 0046jt,
I think that you do not fully understand our Mobile theme concept. So, please notice the mobile plugin has been designed to have very basic structure, clear and very fast. The mobile theme does not recognize the Visual Composer shortcode and all the pages which are created in Visual Composer will not be rendered in mobile mode. The homepage using this mobile plugin will contain the Big Grid module on the top of the page will display only the posts which belonging to the Featured Category, some text but only if it will be added in Mobile Editor from Visual Composer and at the bottom of the page will appear the Latest Articles which display the latest posts. For more information about this concept, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
However, if you are unhappy with this feature, please notice that you can simply turn off this plugin because it is an optional one and then the theme will be automatically switched to the general responsiveness mobile mode.
Thanks for your understanding!
HI
A) Yes indeed our theme removes the front-end part of Visual Composer’s page-builder because it’s not working properly with theme’s blocks. We also added 25 new blocks which works only with our theme. We don’t recommend any third-party plugins or additional ad-ons for our theme. The theme is tested and work fine only with Visual Composer plugin which is included in the path available o themeoforest. You can try additional software if you want but we can’t support it and also we can’t say how will work with Newspaper.
B) The theme is tested and search page works fine with any module used, including module 17. I am not sure why the page breaks on your site but you can try to deactivate all plugins, except Visual Composer, clear all caches then test again. If the problem persist please provide your site url so we can have a closer look.
C) We need site url for further investigations.
D) Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css:
.td-social-google, .td-social-pinterest {
display: none!important;
}
E) The theme uses default wp implementation for authors and there is no option which allows you to add multiple authors for a post. You can try a plugin with similar functionality but we didn’t made any tests in this regard and I can’t make any recommendation.
F) You can set a primary category for each post, primary category will be displayed on modules and blocks if is set: http://screencast.com/t/7KmMi5qqKCd
G) Yes you can filter posts by multiple categories using this field from block settings: http://screencast.com/t/bsMWXZCAUUYh For more details in this regard please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/block-settings-tutorial/
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
Hi,
I checked my version – it’s 3.1 , Im running only visual composer and social counter. Deactivated the counter – cleared cache from browser and tested. Unfortunately, I faced the same error.
Also, please note – I have this problem only in the day time (GMT +5:30)
Towards the night if I use the slid block with the same settings – the site works fine. Its only when I wake up the following day I realise the images are all on the home page instead of a slide. This is the 2nd morning its happened.
Hello Ladiesabroad,
You can use the Widgetised Sidebar element from Visual Composer, like this – http://screencast.com/t/x1SHvQZiZYuM
Thanks for your message!
Hello Ladiesabroad,
You will have 2 possibilities in this regard. Firstly, if you are not using the Visual Composer for your pages, by default you will bring the Breadcrumbs and Page title at the top of this. Secondly, if you want to use the Visual Composer for your pages and if you want to bring these options you will have to use the pagebuilderr+page title as page template from here -> http://screencast.com/t/UzxgvuhpXB For more information about our page templates, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/page-templates-2/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello adamuiowa,
I have checked your website and I saw that you are not using the latest version of the theme. Please try to update it (Newspaper 7.3) with the Visual Composer (4.12), clear all your caches and test it again. Also, I have noticed that you are using the mobile theme plugin for your mobile mode and that’s why the embed code from Twitter is not working. Please try the theme without mobile theme plugin, only with default mobile mode and check the results. As you can see, the mobile plugin has very basic structure, it is too sensible and it has been designed to be very fast, clean and easy to use.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
I’m new to the Newspaper theme (7.3) and have a number of questions, please let me know if I should in the future break these into seperate topics.
A) It seems that the included version of Visual Composer is modified in different ways (no front end editor?), and I see that there is a customized set of Visual Composer templates included with the trial, 90% of them focused on home page layout. I have interest in building rich pages and have noticed that there are some templates for sale around the web, are there any that you recommend to users that would be compatible with the way Newspaper is coded?
B) The default search template on my site appears to be broken out of the box and still after the update to 7.3, with bizarre image behavior. Is this fixable or should I settle on a different module than M17?
C) The top of the featured image of the default post look is flush with the Main Menu Bar by default. I’m trying to accomplish the same look and feel with a Visual Composer built page, but I can’ seem to get rid of 40px of whitespace between elements and the menu bar above using the VC
D) Disable Google+ and Pinterest from social share?
E) Support for Multiple Authors?
F) Possibility of Prioritizing Categories for a post? This way I might be able to choose which single category gets displayed in a content block…
G) Any way of limiting posts displayed in a given block to only show ones that have a combination of different categories?
Thanks!
Hello,
I am trying to install the WPBakery Visual Composer but the WP says I cannot activate it because of a fatal error. How can I solve it? In the link below you can see what is going on. Furthermore, the Slider Revolution says that I need a code to activate the premium version – but I do not have it.
How can I solve these issues?

I want to have author alias like Joomla do. Because i have guest writers and i don’t want to add them like author users. How can i manage this situation in wordpress. In customfields there is “author alias” I tried it but nothing changed. Can you help? Can it be done with code like if author alias custom field is full, article and visual composer show alias as author, if not user author.
Hey,
I would like to split my quite long post into several pages but when I try to use <!––nextpage––> (either in visual editor or html) I get nothing. Though, I see that loop-single-5.php (foe example) has <?php echo $td_mod_single->get_post_pagination();?>.
So, does newspaper support this feature and if yes – why I can’t use it? 🙂
Thanks.
P.S. Latest Newspaper 7 installed.
Hi Bogdan,
I know and have used the blocks, I want some flexibility with my block and grid designs, there are some designs in some websites I will like for my website, I just want to have control over the block and grid designs. In your documentary there is a mention of tagDiv composer plugin I added it to my site but it won’t work on its own or with my activated visual composer, if the plugin will work as described in the documentation it will solve my problem and I want to buy it. Please keep me posted on updates on the tagDiv composer plugin, it will be better if it can work with visual composer
Regards,
Stanley
Hi
I have disabled the sidebar on my homepage and created a sidebar using the 1/3 row (standard functionality from the Wedding News demo). http://www.ladiesabroad.se/.
On my posts I have the sidebar enabled and I have added a downloaded widget (MailMunch) and placed it under Apprearance -> Widgets -> Newspaper Default to display it on the posts. http://www.ladiesabroad.se/2016/08/dubrovnik-stari-grad.html
How do I place downloaded widgets to my homepage so they will be visible on my selfmade 1/3-row sidebar? I want the FÖLJ LADIES ABROAD sections of my homepage and posts to look the same (subscribe by mail on both).
I use Visual Composer for creating my Homepage.
Thanks.
ok, but I can not edit the homepage for example with Visual Composer, because after update Visual Composer doesn’t work.
Hello kal,
Please ensure that you have deleted your old version of Visual Composer and then you have fully installed the new version of it -> 4.12. To be sure that you use the right version of this plugin, please check the Plugins area, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/sHraNwAFIey2 Please try to clear all your caches and test it again.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello b2bmediawebro,
Please ensure that you are using the latest version of the Revolution Slider and Visual Composer plugin which comes bundled with our theme and test it again. If your problem is still there, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your log-in information (wp-admin) so we can take a closer look, so we can investigate this case because until now we do not have any bad reports in this regard and also, we cannot recreate this conflict.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi
Thanks @Edward for you help!
@Ladiesabroad Instagram widget update works fine: http://screencast.com/t/EakIItNMy

Hello,
The problem was between Slider Resolution, Visual Composer and Woocommerce, in order to make the Woocommerce work with Visual Composer I deactivated the Slider Revolution.
I want to use the Slider Resolution, what can I do to work all plugins together?
I notice that at Slider Resolution and Visual Composer we have new versions of software, how can I update to the new version?
Maybe this updates will fix the problems between the plugins.
Thanks!
Hello Achimzwo,
Unfortunately, I do not exactly understand what you mean. Firat of all, please notice that our theme does not have any landing page available and secondly, the Revolution Slider could be used in Visual Composer and from there you can add it where you want.
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi all,
I used the Visual Composer Ultimate Pricing Tables Add-on https://codecanyon.net/user/-acoda-/portfolio.
Good luck!
Hi
This is not the right way of adding these buttons in post contest. To generate these buttons you will need a plugin as they are not included in our theme or in Visual Composer plugin included in theme’s path. I am not very sure what plugin @_ronald_ used to make these buttons ut you can do a search online for plugins with a similar functionality, try a few of theme and use the one who fits you best.
Thanks!
