Hi,
The process of crating a mobile version for your pages cannot be done automatically as the mobile theme does not use visual composer. Most people use the page builder to create their pages so a simple copy and paste of the whole content will result in a bunch of shortcodes displayed on the front end. The pages have to be built with the wysiwyg editor and not VC
On pages, youtube links will not show up as the page editor does not use any shortcodes or embeds. I will add this to our list for future updates.
Sidebars were not meant to be added on mobile. This is a choice made by the developers.
Thank you!
It appears I did not have the plug in activated because I do not have a license. Does this generally come with the theme or does one have to purchase the Visual Composer license separately?
Hello Stefania,
If you use WordPress 4.5 and an older version of visual composer (under 4.11) then this is the result. There was a conflict between the plugin and wordpress but has since then been fixed. Please follow this guide to update your visual composer plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
You can find the latest version of the plugin in the latest theme version package. (you can download it from envato)
Thank you!
Hi
The mobile theme was not intent to render shortcodes, it only render simple media added via wordpress editor. Its purpose was to serve a simple and lighter version of the site for mobile devices. For the moment we don’t plan to extent its functionality to much because that will defeat the original purpose. Our main theme already have a its mobile version which is responsive and render any type of content so it can be used if you want to serve content generated with Visual Composer on mobile.
With regard to a possible “mix” between mobile theme plugin and Newspaper theme this is not an easy task. Above suggestions cannot be implemented without customizations in code. Unfortunately we can’t provide custom work at the moment so if you really need this and you’re not aware of the steps the must be taken in order to achieve the desired result please consider hiring a developer or a freelancer to do this for you.
Thanks!
Hello
We do not see that in our toolbar. Is there something we have to do to activate that in the toolbar. We have the latest version of NewsPaper installed and the latest version of Visual Composer. Here is a screen shot.

Hi,
Please provide a link to this article so we can inspect it and figure out why it cannot be seen on mobile. My guess is that you use visual composer to create the post and you use the mobile theme. The mobile theme will not render visual composer shotcodes. But this is just a guess until I can inspect your site.
Thank you!
Hi,
Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer (including any image optimization tools), clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it.
Then use the force regenerate plugin to regenerate your thumbnails.
Let us know if you still have trouble with this.
Thank you!
Hi
Visual Composer won’t allow more than 6 elements on a row because does not have implementation for them. However you can try to add images on page like this: http://screencast.com/t/w5WIbox1613 – http://screencast.com/t/LIclfzamu Just set the left alignment for each image and they will be displayed one next to each other. In above example I’ve picked the smaller thumb generated by wordpress for the purpose of this example. However if your images are smaller then 150x150px you can chose full width size.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
Hi
I am not sure why this warning appear because we didn’t got a similar report before and I can’t say for sure what could be the issue. Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn file if you’re using also make sure that you update the theme according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ then test the site again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hello,
The standard embed feature done by pasting the video url in the post content is tested to work with the mobile theme. I tested it again and there is no need to use the [embed]YOUTUBE_LINK[/embed] method as youtube videos work on the mobile theme just by pasting the youtube link inside the content.
Please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. There could be a conflicting plugin that causes the issue.
Thank you!
Hi
1. Trending now block does not display anything because you don’t have any posts published on your site: http://screencast.com/t/Jlww78orWFq You have to publish some posts in order to have something displayed in trending now: http://screencast.com/t/rSdMwqbXgS
You can also display pages in trending now block, just add the post type in block’s settings: http://screencast.com/t/0RHexujY1DO
2. Above explanation also applies for big grid block.
3. Popular posts displays most viewed posts from entire site and Popular categories displays the categories which contain most posts.
WordPress have two types of homepage:
– blog which always displays latest articles: http://screencast.com/t/qJHnQYjA
– static page which always displays a static content. If you use Newspaper theme the static page can be set using Visual Composer plugin.
Hope this helps.
Thanks!
Hi,
Did you change the system status parameters like I mentioned in my above reply? Please use this guide and change your memory allocation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
You can check your progress here: http://screencast.com/t/VcINH4bclyqT
Also please try to disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it.
Please also contact your server provider and let him know of this and if there is something that can be done from the server-side.
Thank you!
Hi
On indicated demo we use big grid 5 on top of the homepage so if you want to achieve the same result just edit the page with Visual Composer and add that grid on top of it: http://screencast.com/t/kDNjKE2i3
Let me know how it goes and if this is not what you mean please provide more specific details about the desired result, also a screen pointing to it would help, so I can inspect it closer and get back to you with a more accurate answer.
Thanks!
Hello,
Disappearing images are usually caused by plugin conflicts. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files.
Let us know if you still have trouble with this.
Thank you!
Hi,
After the last WordPress update my homepage is not working anymore.
I think this is because I can’t update WPBakery Visual Composer.
Adress: http://propatrimonio.org/wp-admin/plugins.php
I think you need the log in details. For that I need to give them to you in private.
Could you please help mw with this?
Thank you very much
Hi
1. I am not sure what you mean, do you want to ad posts in min menu? If so then yes, they will work fine so you can add any post there.
2. Please provide more specific detail about what you’re trying to do because I don’t understand your question.
3. You can use this template fro Visual Composer to replicate the same layout as on our demo: http://screencast.com/t/VAcE5Yq2MW
4 Try this css in theme panel > custom code > custom css to reduce the distance: http://screencast.com/t/J56dfBtuK
.td-header-style-7 .sf-menu > li > a{
line-height: 36px;
}
.td-header-style-7 .sf-menu {
margin-top: 45px;
}
Thanks!
Hi
You can try to use tabs element from Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/05i5GOkzULE – http://screencast.com/t/8bzmJ8Ncu
Let us know how it goes and if this is not what you mean please provide more details about what you’re trying to do, also a screen pointing the desired result would help.
Thanks!
Good Afternoon.
The last question. If we correctly understood in the wordpress platform and Visual Composer, it’s working correctly in a few steps.
As we have done:
1. Created the main site menu and Web pages for each menu. But tagdiv plugins will be working correctly, if we use
“WordPress Post system”? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7XGCtg3DUjMcnlSN3NrRXE3RVk/view?usp=sharing
2. In our “Reading Setting” we need to add a blog or not and how can we do? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7XGCtg3DUjMenFFTVpfbWVidVU/view
3. This is our home page settings https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7XGCtg3DUjMQktfanNCNUNWOWs/view?pref=2&pli=1
Something does not work correctly. Our goal is to make the home page, like here http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/
4. It’s possible in CSS to change this and where? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7XGCtg3DUjMa0pLNjdyM1pkQTQ/view?pref=2&pli=1

Thanks in advance.
Hi
The author page is not editable with Visual Composer. We use the default functionality from wordpress for author page and there are displayed only posts written by a specific author ordered by published date.
Thanks!
Hello,
Unfortunately if you use visual composer on posts (not recommended) this issue will be present on the mobile theme. The mobile theme does not use visual composer and that is why it will show the shortcode on posts. Pages got converted to mobile versions you have top create in the mobile editor but visual composer on posts is not recommended. You can use it but these will be the consequences. You can either stop using VC on posts or stop using the mobile theme as there is no workaround for it. Sorry. (here is where it;s mentioned about VC: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/ – http://screencast.com/t/1sK8WVIO1ig)
Thank you!
Dear TagDiv
After I updating my theme to newspaper version 7.2, The Visual Composer didn’t work. Any suggestion what should I do? Because I need to edit and create a new page.
Thank You in Advance
Hello,
If you want to add content to the sidebars and footer, you need to access the widgets area of WP and place content in your sidebars: http://screencast.com/t/VMEdA9Em
If your homepage does not use a side-bar but a split row in visual composer you have to add content directly in page edit like so: http://screencast.com/t/66rmu3YPUWeJ
Please read the documentation as you will find much useful information that can help you on your project:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/footer-templates/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/sidebars-tutorial/
Thank you!
Hi,
1. Just edit your page and using Visual Composer pagebuilder add the Big Grid element to your page content – http://screencast.com/t/HQ3aUjAcRPor
Maybe this tutorial can help – https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can create a new page and play a little using Visual Composer, create new layouts and new elements just to make an idea how it works. It is not so difficult and you will manage to make an idea, if you never use it before.
2. You don’t need to buy or register Visual Composer, it is licensed to the theme, please read more here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/how-to-update-visual-composer-2/ and in the update guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
3. I’m not sure what you mean. Do you want to place it in the sidebar? You can do this from Widgets area.
4. Do you have any articles on your site? From what I see you don’t have – http://screencast.com/t/agPPJ0pqhdUl I guess that’s why the Big Grid doesn’t appear on your site, if there are no posts to display, the tagdiv elements will not appear.
I suggest to follow some wordpress tutorials, you can find some of them also in our documentation – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newspaper-theme-documentation/ and then please check the theme documentation to make an idea about the theme settings and features.
Hope this helps!
Hi
The settings from theme panel > categories section won’t affect your homepage, they are applied exclusively for category pages. For more detail in this regard please check this link: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-category-settings-work/
The homepage can be customized using Visual Composer page-builder. Please check our documentation for more details about this process: 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/
Let us know how it goes and if you need further assistance on this please provide your site url and more specific detail about what you’re trying to do so we can inspect it closer and get back to you with a more accurate answer.
Thanks!
Greetings to all of you.
A few weeks ago we created our website on a platform wordpress and now we use NEWSPAPER 7.
We want to say a huge thank you to the developers and now we are asking for something a little bit extra support.
1. How to make a “Home page” in the format “Big Grid 1” ? ( like here: http://www.bradfordzone.co.uk/category/news/ we have tried several times using Visual Composer )
2. We tried to activate Visual Composer, but it showed that we must purchase an additional license key?
3. How to add POPULAR CATEGORY in a post? ( doesn’t show in a footer )
4. POPULAR POSTS doesn’t show in a footer?
Could we have done something wrong? To understand all of the flaws, please check our Web site: http://leedsstar.com
We’d like to hear from you.
Thanks in advance.
