Hi
@robson2386 I’ve checked your site and noticed that when I access some posts the theme used to display them changes to newssetter: http://screencast.com/t/bj680EgsK9RR This is one of the those posts: http://motoday.pl/2015/06/16/bmw-serii-1-e87-jedyny-kompakt-z-napedem-na-tyl/ I am not sure why this happens but seems to affect site’s functionality and that’s why the featured image is not displayed on modules.
Make sure you have installed the Newsmag theme according with our documentation, also deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches, purge cdn files if you’re using then test the site again.
@haeluna I’ve checked your site and the theme works fine but you don’t have set the featured image for your post, that’s why there is no image displayed on homepage. Try to set some featured images for your posts: http://screencast.com/t/tDU3mo4C then test the site again.
Thanks!

I have checked your site but could not find any problems with block 18: http://screencast.com/t/q1WVX7CpJG. Please provide more details as I cannot understand the issue from the scrrenshot. Is it the thumbnails not filling the container? If this is the case, then please try to upload biger images for those posts and regenerate thumbs. Also make sure you have the thumbnails selected from here http://screencast.com/t/kCD9bamhB as I see that your block 18 uses the full size image and not the thumbnail.
@Lynden
Thanks. Glad you got it working.
@fitnessfactory
Please try to deactivate all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. If the plugin still won;t work, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-admin so we can access the back-end to inspect it.
Thank you!
Hi,
The new version of WP caused a few issues so please update your theme to the latest version: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and also update you visual composer plugin: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
As for the theme settings, make sure you have all the system status parameters increased according to this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/
Thank you!
Hi,
1) Please test the masonry grid without any other plugins except visual composer. you might have a plugin conflict going on that interferes with the grid. Please disable all plugins except visual composer, clear cache and reset cdn files. Then check the grid again. This way, maybe you could identify the one causing the issue.
2) If you place a sidebar in the per category settings here: then all the posts will get that category but only if the post setting is set to “default”: http://screencast.com/t/E3Rxzm8g If any other sidebar is set here, the one from the category will be ignored. You might also want to check if the sidebar was not stripped of widgets. Sometiumes wordpress strips the sidebar of widgets in special cases like when useing special symbols or language specific characters in the sidebar titles.
Let us know how it goes.
Thanks.
Hello Hugom,
Please ignore this message because the Visual Composer is free and come bundled with our theme and you cannot activate it because we cannot provide you a license key for this.
Thank you for your understanding!
Hello travisnw,
I have checked your website and I saw the problem with the fonts and also, I have noticed that you are using a lot of untested plugins which interact with the theme and could cause some unknown issues. Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!
Hi
I’ve checked your site and you’re not using our theme now so I can’t say for sure why you have this issue. Please make sure that you’re using last theme version available on themeforest, V 2.3.6 and also use Visual Composer V 4.11.2 which is included in theme’s path. Here you can check our documentation about the update process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-the-theme/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thanks!
Same problem here. I updated to WP 4.5 and the Visual Composer stopped working. Looks like I need to update WP Bakery, BUT:
I use the Envato Toolkit so my client can update the Newspaper theme from within WordPress dashboard. The instructions for the Visual Composer update only pertain to when you manually download the latest version of the Newspaper theme. Is there a more automatic way to do this? I want my client to be able to do routine WordPress updates herself, but not if the site is going to stop working until she goes through a convoluted process related to Newspaper and Visual Composer.
I have the latest WordPress upgrade, 6.7.1 of the theme and version 4.11.2 of visual composer. I have no plugins because this is a local installation I use for testing purposes. Yet block 18 is now broken. And it doesn’t happen if I install the previous version of VC. Of course when I install the previous version of VC, all I see is circle turning!
This is how b-18 looks like: http://screencast.com/t/MrHrYGOo
Is this a bug?
Hello Andrei,
I am still having this HTTP error, it is frustrating because i have not publish any new content, I am using the latest version of visual composer active, V 4.11.2, and i also tested the theme using Theme Check Plugin. Here is the result
Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/content/p3pnexwpnas14_data03/71/3198071/html/wp-content/plugins/theme-check/checks/deprecated.php on line 263

Hello pedro,
If you want to display the Ad, using the module 13 for latest article option, you have to use the do_shortcode method and place the code in td_module_13.php. First of all, you have to create the code from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/WSsDj3xttlfk -> http://screencast.com/t/nrSIgUvY and then you have to create this code ->
<?php echo do_shortcode('[td_block_ad_box spot_id="custom_ad_1" spot_title="AD TEST"]');?> and then you have to place the code in the core file, corresponding to the module used by you, in this case, module 13. Please check this -> http://screencast.com/t/x2QpnMVe9
Please notice that you have to customize your ad box as you wish, depending on what you want to show in this ad. As an instance, above I gave you an example using the custom ad 1. Before you check the result, please ensure that you have added the code in custom ad 1 field from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/slwRK2ycOL92
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/dyHQ6SVuwq
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your understanding!

Hi,
The layout is exactly as this page only the sidebar is set to left instead of right:
http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/big-grid-1/
The top element is a big grid 1, the bottom element is probably a block 3. i’m not sure fropm the screenshot, but the bottom line is that everything can be added in visual composer. Please follow this topic to see how to use visual composer:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/homepage-how-to-build-and-set-it/
Please note that if visual composer does not work properly on your side, there was an issue with visual comp[oser and the new version of WordPress. In this case you need to update your theme and the visual composer plugin by following these guides:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
Hi
Visual Composer plugin comes bundled with our theme and you don’t need any activation code for it. You can ignore the activation message because basically when you bought our theme you got a license for all plugins included in its path.
Thanks!
Hi
Latest article section is generated when you’re using page-builder+latest as a page template in Visual Composer: http://screencast.com/t/bbIIXhCaexC You can remove that par by changing the page template used top default. More details about theme’s page templates can be found in our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-page-templates/
Let us know if you need further assistance on this.
Thanks!
Hello pedroarmindo1,
If you want to place the add above and below the blocks, you have to use the Ad Box from Visual Composer, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/2rrOMDZNIlkb -> http://screencast.com/t/PAqku3UM3Rp
Hope this helps and let us know how it goes!
Thank you for the message!

I really like your theme and I use it to publish posts frequently and I do hope that the theme status could be more stable.
Please help and thanks!
Visual composer on my Newspaper 6 theme is not working.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the plugin again and again. it is till nor working.
IT JUST KEEPS ROLLING. When it stops, I dont have access to use the Back end editor. When switched to classic mode,
I see the visual and Text side of WordPress. But the VC does not work in backend mode.
I have switched to WP default theme twentysixteen, but the problem is still there.
Hello Sylvester77,
As a quick workaround, please try to use the following code to fix your issue. Please the code below and place it in Theme panel->Custom CSS Area.
The code is ->
.td-pb-span12 .td-slide-on-2-columns .td-slide-galery-figure {
width: 100%;
}
The result you should see here -> http://screencast.com/t/qMgjNbzMq
I suspect your problem that was caused by your untested plugins. Please try to disable all the active plugins, leave just Visual Composer to active, clear all cache and install only the plugins that come bundled with our theme and rule out the conflicting plugins.
Thank you for the message!
Hello eduardo,
Please try to update the theme to the latest version (4.7.1) because this has the latest version of Visual Composer and Revolution Slider or you can check the plugins area and try to download from there the latest version of this plugin -> http://screencast.com/t/LZR6GDGm
Thank you for the message!
Hi,
You can update visual composer and the theme the same way you would on the online version. You can use the theme files and simply replace the old ones for a theme update and for a plugin update you can follow this topic:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thank you!
