Hello,
The image number is for the image i set. I showed you above how to use a single image element in visual composer. Just create a blank page, add a single image element, select your image, apply some settings/styling to it, then enter classic mode and text mode(not visual) and you will see the code for your image.
You can use the same method on posts. The posts have 2 files that correspond for one template. There is the single.php files and the loop-single.php. For this you have to edit the loop files. http://screencast.com/t/Dq6GqnpUBQ3O
Thanks.
I just updated Yoast SEO to latest version 3.0.1 and I had NewsMag 2.3 version installed, but theme crashed. So I updated theme to the latest version 2.3.1, but the theme still doesn’t work.
The problem is visible when I want to add new post to my site. I don’t see buttons on “text” menu, I can’t switch to “Visual” menu. I can’t insert tags (the button for tags doesn’t work). The button “Add media” also not working.
I deactivated Yoats SEO plugin and everything works, but with plugin is not working!!!
I also updated Yoast SEO to latest version 3.0.1 on site where I use Newspaper theme 6.5.1 and there I have no problems. Everything is working. Only NewsMag theme doesn’t work with latest Yoast plugin.
Can you help me?
Thanks for the quick reply, Bogdan. The following are all screenshots of my wordpress backend including visual composer. Also included are shots of what the image gallery looks like on mobile.

Visual Composer Backend
I tried using the responsive row settings dialog box to no avail. It would push the gallery 1 row to the right when I used the ‘1 column offset’, but this was still not centered; close, but not centered.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Hi
I’ve checked this on my side and for posts the drop-caps works fine even if I use a text block (if I have Visual Composer active for posts): http://screencast.com/t/iUc11Z99TM – http://screencast.com/t/E5ysxMijj
The drop-caps weren’t designed to to work on pages, the css classes are different that’s why the css doesn’t applies. Please provide a link where this issue appears so I can investigate it closer and maybe I can provide a solution.
Thanks!
Hi,
If you want the first thing on the page to be the image, then you need to add your code in the category template files: http://screencast.com/t/Jhqe3L6t
<?php echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="223" img_size="full" css=".vc_custom_1447858280464{padding-top: 20px !important;padding-bottom: 20px !important;}"][/vc_column][/vc_row]');?>
I just added a few more option to the image in visual composer like full size and padding.
Place it like so: http://screencast.com/t/gH5GgPEb
Just be advised that this will generate the same image on every category that uses this template.

Thanks

Hi
Sorry for the inconvenience, we try our best to provide the best quality themes and support.
First please backup the whole current theme installation as well as the database and wp install: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Version 1.7.1 which you have it installed: http://screencast.com/t/BUr9CmZE have this plugins included in its path: http://screencast.com/t/tpdW0mTb You need to delete them, also delete the old theme: http://screencast.com/t/xrHoImmmQZ and install the V2.3.1 of the theme. After this step install the new plugins, only Visual Composer is required, install the other ones only if you need them: http://screencast.com/t/bMVnQrywy – http://screencast.com/t/V8j2YSlZt1
The differences between V1.7.1 and the current one are major. Lots of files are changed, lot of code was modified and your customizations from child theme may not work properly with the latest version of the theme.
The point of a child theme is to keep the customization even if the main theme it’s updated. But this is not always valid, because once in a while the child theme it’s also updated, or if the main theme pass through a major update it’s possible that some customizations not work well anymore.
Since V2.0 the include system for css has been changed in child theme: http://screencast.com/t/UKZpoPCiw and using the old child theme instead of the updated one could cause issues with theme’s style. That was the reason why I have mentioned the child theme update.
Let me know how it goes!
Thanks!
Just checked and this behaviour seems to be caused by Visual Composer. If you add a Text Block through VC and try to do a Dropcaps I get this wrong output. If however I go to the ‘standard’ editor and use the Dropcaps style it is rendered properly.. Please investigate 🙂
Hello,
I understand your request now. The example above only placed an image on the category page.
You will need to edit the top post files located here: http://screencast.com/t/5V35g4r7aO
Every file corresponds to a top post style you set from the theme panel: http://screencast.com/t/Koefd7FWIm
The shortcode i used was from a visual composer single image element. You can see visual composer shortcodes in text mode when editing a page. You can add a single image element in visual composer when editing a page and style it as you want: http://screencast.com/t/VBHhKVZuk2Oy -http://screencast.com/t/yv4uWDhsMH
Then after you are done with the image settings, you can enter text edit mode and copy the code created for the image to the files as i have shown you above using do_shortcode. You basically copy and paste a visual composer element which is responsive by default.
But the code will not set the feature image anywhere. It just places an image on the category page.
If you want to set the featured images on all 8000 post, besides the manual version, one thing you might try, if you already have an image “in the post” of some type, use the “auto post thumbnail pro” plugin which will automatically take first image from post (or from external site, if necessary) and then generate thumb and assign as “featured” image in every post.
Unfortunately there is no other option for this. You can maybe find a free plugin to do this as well.
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hello,
I have checked your website and it seems your pages looses all their styling. Please disable all your pl;ugins except visual composer and revert all minifications css and js. Also clear your cache and purge CDN files if you use it.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hi
1. You can change the header background color from theme panel > theme colors: http://screencast.com/t/Df7P0aCba – http://screencast.com/t/3W5DO3M8hQfs
2. The latest article sections don’t uses elements from Visual Composer, that section it’s generated according with settings from post loop settings: http://screencast.com/t/bjlWMMDoU1
The theme have an ad spot for footer ads in theme panel > ads sections: http://screencast.com/t/fSqD3AhyGo – http://screencast.com/t/eLb6IhnwEsa
Let me know how it goes and if this is not what you mean please provide more details.
Thanks!
Hi,
Try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear the caches then check if this errors still appear in error log.
The last two errors occur when you try to access the theme’s index.php file directly and this is caused by the theme’s inability to locate the WordPress get_header function as it dose not passed trough WordPress when the request is made and in that case the function doesn’t “exist”.
You can read more about this and also have a solution for this here: http://ardamis.com/2011/06/02/fix-for-php-fatal-error-get_header-in-wordpress/
Hope this help.
Thanks
Hello,
Posts already have that option. The featured image does exactly that. Use a post template with a big featured image and you will have the desired effect: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/td-post-if-you-only-knew-how-much-your-relative-churn-rate-matters/
For the categories, you will need to modify the top post files in order to achieve your goal and you can add a condition to filter your categories and images: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_category
You can also use a do_shortcode to place you images. For example:
The category number represents the category id. You can get it from here: http://screencast.com/t/OKsDtKVi3G5
<?php
if (is_category(13)) {
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="887"][/vc_column][/vc_row]')
}
elseif (is_category(14)){
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image="886"][/vc_column][/vc_row]')
}
?>
You can add some padding to the image from visual composer from design options in order to make it fit the content.

I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hello,
The problem in the mobile version comes from the visual composer row settings. I have tested this myself and found that a full height row and other settings will cause this effect on the mobile version. These visual composer row options were not adjusted to work with the theme 100%. We usually recommend the default values set on the VC row. In your case you can use the default values on the row and just select the stretch row no padding value.(you can try different variations to see different results)

Thank you!
Hi,
I cannot suggest you to use a page instead of a category and also it is not good to have duplication on your site(the same name even it is category, page or post). The theme doesn’t have such an option to use Visual Composer for category template, so if you want to use a custom page(like you have now) you will need to use a redirect plugin.
Thanks!
Hello,
Please try one more thing. To disable all your plugins except visual composer, clear your cache and purge CDN files if you use it. If the problem is still there, please send us an email at contact@tagdiv.com with your login credentials so we can take a look. Please provide a link to this topic as well so we know who you are and what the problem is.
Thank you!
Hi
I’ve test the image carousel functionality on my side and works fine: http://screencast.com/t/dCosi2N4c This could happen due to a conflict between Visual Composer and other plugin so try to deactivate all others plugins, clear all caches and test again.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks!
Hi,
Are you maybe using the jetpack plugin? The photon feature causes errors with our images. If you use it please disable this feature.
If this does not work, please try to disable all your plugins except visual composer and check the smartlist again.
Let us know how it goes.
Thank you!
Hello,
You can try to disable all other plugins and just leave visual composer active and see if it generates the error. It could be a plugin conflict.
You can also try to reinstall visual composer (use the version that comes with the theme).
Let us know if the problem is still there afterwards.
Thank you!
Hello,
The features tab was only created for the demo website so you could see all the features if the theme. You can use these features from the theme panel or from visual composer. Please read the documentation on the subject you are interested in to see how you can implement it on your website: https://forum.tagdiv.com/wordpress-information/
Thank you!

Hello,
WordPress is stripping the code from the textblock. It is a default behavior of WP.
You can maybe use a plugin for this: https://wordpress.org/plugins/gravitate-event-tracking/
Or you can maybe find a ‘non plugin’ solution online:

I hope this helps!
Hello to everyone.
My site is http://www.storypickers.com
and I would like to know which is the best. To creat a page or a category, I mean for Seo?
Just to be more clear.
This looks like a category but no, is a page: http://www.storypickers.com/true-stories/
I have a category on the same name which this page it has. Under that page I have created some blocks module with visual composer plugin, and it loads article only from that category… I have done in that way because I thought it will be more good for seo.
However is this a good way for seo? Or I should leave only like a category and not like a page?
Waiting for your reply I wish to you Kind Regards!
Hello, I am building a new page using visual composer. It is not a post, but a page.
Can I use an image as a background for this page?
Thanks 🙂
It seems when updating from version 4.6.1 to 6.5.1 there are some substitutional issues, especially with the shortcodes.
I’ve noticed [td_text* and [td_block* tags showing as text rather than being used as a shortcode, has this changed?
If possible it would be great to know how to go about updating from version to version smoothly.
Kind Regards.
