Hi,
This plugin need to be in theme folder that you get from themeforest -> https://www.screencast.com/t/kICdziqEv -> https://www.screencast.com/t/5GkBlW13r
Please check our documentation for visual composer ( the new WPBakery ) ->https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Thank you!
Thanks for your response…
I can see why I never updated the WP Bakery because I can’t find it.
I downloaded the latest Newspaper update files, looked in the Newspaper updated folder and plugin folder and don’t see a file named js_composer.zip. Is it called something else?
PS…Your support instructions located here seem outdated.
I found plugs ins folder here: Newspaper/includes/plugins not Newspaper-tf/plugins/js_composer.zip file as shown. Still, don’t see the js_composer.zip file you talk about
Thanks

Hello,
In the new tagDIV Composer there is an element or plugin like: “PW Carousel / Slider Post Layout For Visual Composer”
How can I make a carousel of images in tagDIV Composer?
Thanks
Hello
In the previous version of Visual Composer, in the Menu you could use “Use icon on main Menu”, now that option does not appear, is it not possible to use icons in the menu?
Thank you
Hi,
What exactly cannot you make with your Visual Composer? I have made some changes on my localhost and the Visual Composer is working fine. Please provide more details and some useful screenshots with the problem so I will be able to provide a more accurate response. Also, check the system status parameters to be increased according to our documentation from here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
WPBakery Visual Composer is just a builder( is optional if you want to use it ) that we over in our theme, in each update we set the last version of VComposer from that time of theme update ( we recommend to use the version that comes with theme ), if you not longer want to use the visual composer, you can use the TagDiv Composer this one is our official builder made spacial for our theme.
From Visual Composer to tagDiv Composer -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi I don’t want to pay for Visual composer but any updates are not free. Eventually it will not work. What can be used to replace it for a home page layout?
Hi,
That is quite an an old theme version from which you are updating. Here you can find a changelog for each theme update, to see what has been modified, new features etc
– https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609 (bottom of the page).
Update guide if necessary here – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
That error you mention is in most cases related to insufficient memory
– https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/fix-wordpress-memory-exhausted-error-increase-php-memory/
The theme requirements guide has been updated as well, please check it carefully and if necessary ask your hosting provider to increase the values of the parameters mentioned in it
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
For the WP memory we recommend a value of 256M.
After the update, deactivate/delete all the old theme plugins and install the new ones from the theme package plugins folder.
As a side note, the tagDiv composer will be automatically installed and activated after you update the theme. This composer could interfere with specific WPBakery elements or layouts. If that is the case, please disable it.
Also update WPBakery to the latest version if you use it (theme package contains version 5.6)
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
The option to edit pages with WPBakery should appear same as before
– https://www.screencast.com/t/ag8uBzu2Hzx
– https://www.screencast.com/t/JhLAoUdzm
After you update clear all the website caches, CDN, browser cache. Let us know if you have problems.
Thanks
I am trying to create a page that has nothing but and image and a background to use as a temp page. I want to remove header and footer … How can I do this thing? I use Visual Composer but have header w/logo and footer with widgets. I want to remove this? Please help
Hi,
Please make a theme update, or a fresh install with the latest version of newspaper, login on themeforest with you credentials and get it from there with all files and documentation.
That is a very old theme version, an insecure for our times; much has changed since that version. Indeed that would be the thing to note. Once you update the tagDiv composer will be automatically activated. Visual composer elements in pages may not display properly if the tagDiv composer is active. Deactivate it and leave Visual composer (now WP Bakery page builder) active. Update Visual composer and there should be no issues
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
This is a guide to update the theme
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
It is always recommended to keep the theme used, theme plugins and WordPress up to date. Updates will improve the functionality in many ways.
If you would then want to use the tagDiv composer, all pages will have to be recreated using it. The pages must only contain elements that belong to it.
Be sure to check if there are sufficient resources allocated for a optimal performance
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Check the theme system status and if needed ask your hosting provider to increase those parameters.
Le us know if you encounter any issues and we will try to help you as best we can.
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately Elementor plugins is not tested with our theme, we have a spacial builder made for Newspaper theme ( tagDiv Composer ) and now you can do a lot more using tagDiv Cloud Library
Newspaper Theme 9.5 Update: What’s new in the Newspaper Theme -> https://tagdiv.com/whats-new-in-newspaper-theme-9-5-update/
Note that the tagDiv Composer is a builder made for create/edit pages and templates from tagDiv Cloud Library not for creating posts, indeed you can create/edit single post templates from cloud library for post.
If you have the WordPress 5 you can use the Gutenberg editor, this one have more elements then classic editor ( and you can find the classic elements too ).
Also you can use the visual composer ( WPBackery ) plugin on post -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
Thank you for your understanding!
Hi,
I have checked your website and I saw the big white space which seems to come from your page configuration with Visual Composer. As a quick solution, try to use the code below and place it in Theme panel -> Cusotm CSS area.
.home .vc_row-flex{
min-height:0!important;
}
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
For a better understanding, below I tried to explain in more words how Mobile Theme works. So, please notice that this theme concept (mobile theme) intends to display a Big Grid feature at the top of the homepage which shows the posts which are included in Featured category and at the very bottom of the page you will bring the Latest Articles module. Please keep in mind that the Mobile Theme does not recognize the Visual Composer/ TD Composer shortcode and that’s why you did not get the desktop style for mobile theme. If you are unhappy with this layout, and if you want to have the similar structure for mobile layout, you will simply turn off the mobile theme plugin and the theme will be automatically switched to the general responsive mobile mode. Please notice that if you will use the Mobile Theme, you will bring a high score for your page speed because this one has been optimized for mobile devices.
I hope that you understand!
Yeah, it’s WPBakery Page Builder V5.6 that’s causing the problem. Can you confirm this is the visual composer plugin I should be using please. I think I used the one that’s distributed with the latest version of Newspaper.
Hi,
How did you have created your homepage? Please notice that we do not recommend using any other untested page builder plugin, sorry! You have to use the TD Composer plugin which is the most powerful page builder. Please notice that in the past, if you have used another page builder, now you cannot use Visual Composer or TD Composer because all of your shortcodes will not be recognized by the plugin, sorry!
I hope that you have understood!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi,
Please note that our theme is not tested with Elemetor plugin builder, our official builder is tagDiv Composer and the secondary tested is Visual Composer.
Also please check our documentation for:

Hi,
@jackfischlum, @Truelifefitness you simply download the latest theme packet because this one will come bundled with the latest version of Visual Composer (the latest tested version with the theme). If you would read the above guide you will see that mention, sorry!
Thanks.
Hello~
I tried your guide
https://papacurator.com/tdb_templates/blank-author-template/
but shortcode doesn’t work in tagdiv but work in visual mode.
The code like this
[user_favorites]
[vc_row][vc_column width="1/3"][vc_widget_sidebar sidebar_id="td-category-sidebar"][/vc_column][vc_column width="2/3"][vc_raw_html]JTVCdXNlcl9mYXZvcml0ZXMlNUQ=[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Hi,
That is the Gutenberg editor introduced in WordPress 5. Were the pages built with WPBakery? Why exactly are the pages impossible to edit?
If the WPBakery edit button does not appear in Gutenberg it probably means you do not use the 5.6 plugin version provided in the theme package
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Update the WPBakery plugin and it should appear – http://prntscr.com/mmod9z
The plugin also has an option to disable the Gutenberg editor
– http://prntscr.com/mmodlg
Thanks
Hi,
If I understand correctly you want to use the Visual Composer ( WP Bakery ) for post, if is so then you’ll need to go in WP Bakery > Role manager and set the post type to Custom and check the post ->https://www.screencast.com/t/1hhSdCKqq -> https://www.screencast.com/t/5bdevYHqTC
Hope this will help you!
Thanks.

I would like to use the WordPress Editor for my posts in Newspaper version 9.5. How do I activate it so it displays? Right now I can only see the Block Editor.

Hi Calin,
Thanks for your quick reply – but unfortunately it did not help me. Let me explain the issue in more detail:
When I started using Newspaper 9 about three months ago, I went through all old content and deleted manually all unnecessary shortcodes from the old theme. Now all shortcodes are from Newspaper 9. I have TD Composer, of course, but have not been using it – all pages are made without any “visual composer”.
Here’s an example of a page (it’s a Page, not a Post):
https://minnethaimaassa.com/thaimaan-parhaat/yksin-matkalla/
I would be very happy if you are able to help me with this issue; I’m about to update my other website from Newspaper 8 to 9, and after the update I will have this same problem once again. In that other website Sticky Sidebar works, probably because it’s Newspaper 8.

I tried to:
– uninstall and reinstall the igossip theme
– disable td composer after installing the theme
– delete and reinstall js composer (from the theme plugin folder)
– install plugins to disable gutenberg
– reinstall ALL
I do not know what else to do! I updated wordpress just because I read here that there would be no problems.
I just want to be able to use wp barkery visual composer as before the update.
I opened this post for some time and I have not received an answer while post following my… yes … why?
Do I have to open another post?
1. I use the standard template for the homepage. My picture is displayed on the front page of each article. ok
https://imgur.com/a/jxsIBWn
2. When introducing a Carousel Block from Visual composer, the photos on the homepage of the article do not appear anymore.

3. When introducing a Carousel Block from Visual composer, the photos on the first page of the article appear only if I have a scroll button (left-right) for that category. Otherwise the hidden picture remains.

4. If I delete the Carousel Block, everything returns to normal.
