Hello sunnysunnet,
1)Please keep in mind that you are using the Mobile theme plugin, you will not bring these features on mobile mode because the theme has not been designed to render the Visual Composer elements in mobile theme, but only in Mobile Responsiveness mode. Please notice that the mobile theme has been built to be very fast and easy to be used. If you want to develop this plugin, through adding some additional settings and features, please notice that you will require custom work and we cannot provide these services at the moment, sorry! If you are not aware of these, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you in this regard.
2)Please notice that the mobile theme cannot be changed without custom work. For more information about this feature, please consult our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
3)I suppose that you want to change the background color for your Social Counter header, right? Please try the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS area.
The code is ->
.block-title > span {
background-color: black;
.block-title {
border-bottom: 2px solid #222222;
The result -> http://screencast.com/t/B7Vpy6dCS
If you want to have the exact layout with our demo for Newspaper, please notice that you can add the template when you create your homepage, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/4L4B5uHVDa -> http://screencast.com/t/HnezjEOty
Thanks for your understanding!
Hello,
Unfortunately you cannot have access to the visual composer support unless you buy the plugin. We will try to help as much as we can with your questions related to VC and if there is something we cannot answer we will request a support ticked on wp bakery, but most questions users have are theme related as visual composer uses theme blocks and modules mostly as we have implemented it that way.
Please provide more details to what menu pagination you are referring to.
Thank you!
Hello, is it possible (without additional coding) to use top, inline and bottom article ad for Smart List 5?
This style is a long linear list, so it’s visually look like an article. But when I use this smartlist, I can’t get top, inline and bottom article ad to shown.
Thank you.
Hello,
Is it possible to grab Visual Composer retail key ? It is because that you have stated we don’t have buy Visual Composer, theme itself comes with licence.But problem is i need official support from Visual Composer team to figure it out how to make and implement menu pagination on visual composer.
Best Regards.
Hello GadgetViper,
As you can see, the default category pages could not be customized by Visual Composer and a lot of users opted for this solution with 301 Redirect. Please notice that this is not the best solution and it might further affect the SEO and this it’s up to you.
Thanks for your understanding!

Hi
On desktop breadcrumbs are displayed only if visual composer is not used on the page. However you can use page-builder+title to display breadcrumbs on pages where Visual Composer is used: http://screencast.com/t/cqyAtRXltKv – http://screencast.com/t/EL8PkAXHtW
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
Hello techsabi,
Please notice that you can use for your sidebar all of our blocks and for more examples on how it will display, you can use our demo tutorial, looking to the right side, like this -> http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/block-1/.To display these, you can use the Widgetised Area from Visual Composer on pages, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/73gA0m3omv9t -> http://screencast.com/t/ReOq7SB2 For more information about our sidebars, please check our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/smart-sidebar-2/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
I want to add a new page to my WordPress site with Newspaper theme.
I’m using the Backend editor and when clicking a layout to use, the Visual Composer icon turns into a “wheel” and never stops spinning.
I cannot add any layouts or elemnts for my page.
Editing old pages with Visual Composer is also not working anymore!!
Wordpress installed localy on a hosted server, worked some days ago.
Theme name: Newspaper
Theme version: 7.2
Theme database version: 7.2
Theme aurora version: 1.1
Visual Composer: 4.6
Hi. I have to put some code in either homepage ,categories and single posts that I can’t do with Visual Composer, cause it contains php code. I need a way to put php code or through a sidebar, or through a block, or a template part. I’m trying with block but documentation for me is not complete enough and I cannot understand if blocks can do it. Please give some hint so I can proceed. Thanks.
Hi,
This could be a plugin conflict so please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Then test the search option again. Also if you use a child theme please switch to the main theme and if you have any customization done to the main theme, please try to restore the theme to it’s default code to see if the custom code does not affect the search option.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
HI
You can customize the layout from Visual Composer using custom css but you have to be careful at the code and also make sure that the page won’t be affected by your customizations. To change the layout using custom code you will need lots of customizations and tests in order to achieve the desired result.
You have to find the most optimal; solution depending by desired layout for your page. If the html structure requires new spans for content the you have to make a new page template but if the layout can be customized only with custom css then you can use it without a custom post template.
Note that we can’t offer customization services at the moment so if you’re not aware of the steps that must be taken in order to complete this task my advice is to look for someone who can help you with implementation or hire a freelancer to do it for you.
Thanks!
Hello JesusCircle,
There is no activation code for slider revolution as it is a free version and only paid versions can be activated and updated automatically through the WP dashboard. The version we provide cannot be updated from WP and it cannot be registered as there is no activation code for free versions. You can use the plugin without activation as you have access to all it features. The same applies to visual composer: http://screencast.com/t/sTrvApWU7I4
Thank you!
Hello,
Please read this guide to learn how the mobile theme works and how it affects pages: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/ or posts that use visual composer.
Thank you!
Hello mpdimitrov,
If you want to add a table in Newspaper theme you will have to use a bit of HTML code for generating this.
As a hint, this is a table with some links which are added through HTML. Also, if you want to achieve the table using HTML code, you will have to consult this -> http://www.w3schools.com/html/html_tables.asp and then you will have to add this snippet of the code in the core file according to header style used by you or if you want to add the table on your page, homepage, for example, you can use the Text block element from Visual Composer and paste there the code, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/Vhw9OgaQbdn1 and the result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/LRG58Wux
If you are not aware of the steps in this regard, please consider hiring a freelancer/developer to help you because we cannot provide customization services at the moment, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
Can someone supply me or help me. What I’m trying to do is create a custom php template using the Newspaper styles and not use the visual composer.
Can someone supply me sample HTML code for generating tabs in the Newspaper 7 theme? or do I have to reverse engineer HTML generated content?
Hi,
That is a new element that was no present in the videos. It is the second editor for the mobile theme. If you use the mobile theme plugin: http://screencast.com/t/tJTYnwGe there will be a second editor (the first one) called a mobile editor. This is destined for creating mobile versions of your pages without the use of visual composer as the mobile theme does not use visual composer. You can read more about this here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/the-mobile-theme/
Thank you!
Hello,
Unfortunately visual composer is not available on category pages. Categories can only be customized through the theme panel. Alternatively you can use static pages you create with visual composer to replace categories and use 301 redirects between the links. Make sure you do not use the same name for your categories and pages as it will be bad for seo.
Thank you!
I want to be able to use Visual Editor in the category page because I want to make my own list of posts. At the moment it displays all posts.
Is it possible?
Regards,
Vic Stathopoulos
Hello,
If you already created the tab element from visual composer, you can then use a text box element inside it and place your content inside. If you want to use tables, you can create html tables with this online tool and then copy the code for it: http://www.tablesgenerator.com/html_tables (add the code in text mode in the wysiwyg editor)
Thank you!
Hello,
Please use this guide to increase your memory allocation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Plugins can also affect this so please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Then test the upload again.
Alternatively you can also test this on a wp default theme like twentysixteen to rule out theme interference as well.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!

Hi,
Unfortunately we cannot say for sure if the implementation you use is compatible with the theme or not. We only recommend our own Instagram widget: https://forum.tagdiv.com/instagram-widget/
If your implementation worked before, try to identify what was changed since then. Maybe a plugin you installed, an update you made (automatic updates are the worst as it could have been a plugin update that caused this but if your updates were set to automatic, then it;s hard to figure out which one broke it)
The best thing to do is disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Then test the Instagram feed again. Unfortunately if the problem is still there, I won’t be able to help as I have no idea of how you implemented the feed in the first place and customization is not part of the theme support unfortunately.
Thank you!
Hi,
I have added your exact post on my end but the videos are working as expected: http://screencast.com/t/FURfluuxPBE Please disable all your plugins excepot visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Then test the post again.
We do not recommend using visual composer on posts, but this should work. As I see from your screenshot there are visual composer shortcodes not getting rendered by visual composer at all. Please make sure visual composer is active on posts as well from the role manager: http://screencast.com/t/t811kFWK8Xy
Thank you!
Hello techsabi,
First of all, I want to thank you for your kind words and we are happy when we notice that our customers are very happy with our theme.
1)Please try to send me the screenshot so I can understand what you want to achieve. So, if you want to change the sidebar title, please notice that you will have to do this only from your backend when you edit the sidebar, from Widgets area from Theme panel, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/KGljjB0oy6
2)I have tested on my side the Twitter sharing button and everything seems to work as properly. Please try to do this from our demo and check the results. So, please try to disable all the active plugins, 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. It is possible that your untested plugins to affect the theme and cause a lot of unknown issues.
So, if is not what you mean, please provide your website URL and also some useful screenshots so I can understand what you want to achieve.
Thanks for your understanding!
