Hi
I run Newspaper
Version: 4.6.2
at
http://www.alltomtrav.info
Does this mean that I have a security hole because of Visual Composer??????
Hi,
Please check this without any plugins except of Visual Composer, clear cache and re-save your permalinks. Maybe the permalinks are affected by a plugin that you use.
Also please check if you have added a custom code to your page, that may add the numbers to the links. For example it could be an ad code, if you use different then adsense.
Thanks!
Hi,
You have this issue because you use Visual Composer on posts page, unfortunately the tagdiv gallery was not designed for to be used in a text block. We will take a look at this and we will try to fix it in a future update. Please try thsi custom css until we fix this: http://screencast.com/t/nObvBKsvR
.single .wpb_text_column .td-gallery-slide-copywrite {
background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
display: inline-block;
float: left;
font-size: 11px;
font-style: italic;
line-height: 1;
padding: 4px 6px;
text-align: left;
}
.single .wpb_text_column .td-doubleSlider-1 .td-slide-item .td-slide-galery-figure img {
bottom: -50%;
left: -85%;
margin: auto;
overflow: auto;
position: absolute;
right: -50%;
top: -50%;
}
Thanks!
Hello,
Please only use the visual composer version that comes with the theme. Our latest update 6.5.1 contains the latest version of visual composer, but you have to install it from the theme panel not the plugins section http://screencast.com/t/eOzctAU763lY
Please remove other versions ov visual composer you might have installed and install the one from the panel.
Thank you!
Hi,
1. I cannot see you image to understand the VC issue it redirects to – http://screencast.com/t/TxjonXpF
Please make sure you update also the Visual Composer properly, deactivate and delete it from Plugins, then install it from here – http://screencast.com/t/NeIrAMKdm3
2. Unfortunately the block title style 1 that you used in previous version doesn’t exist anymore in version 6 and you have to edit each homepage blocks(or your widgets) and change the background color – http://screencast.com/t/7qRvDzjc
Newspaper 6 is a whole new theme that is released for free for all of our existing customers so an update from 4 to 6 may cause the same issues as switching to another theme (but we did try to maintain compatibility where ever possible). We tried to find the best way for the transition(the script), but some issues may appear. We are very sorry for all the problems that the update caused.
Thanks!

we are using newspaper 6.5.1 latest version with visual composer 4.7.4

Hello François,
The contact page comes with the default demo. You can copy the shortcode from that page to another one you create Just make sure you paste it in text mode not visual http://screencast.com/t/WJevsSWJCzo: http://pastebin.com/Uwp3Mh0C
For the contact form you will need the plugin because the theme has no forms implemented.
I hope this helps.
Thank you!
Hello,
There’s no contact page created by the the video demo I’ve intalled.
I’ve created a new page using the contact page Template from visual composer
but there’s no form added.
There’s a text saying this instead:
Install Contact Form 7 Plugin and replace this text block with your contact form.
I would prefer not to use another plugin if possible.
Also how do I copy contact page from default demo to video demo that I’ve alreay installed?
François
Hello,
You can try to disable ajax view count: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ajax-view-count/
If this doesn’t work, please make sure that you use the latest theme version and check this only with Visual Composer active, disable all other plugins and clear cache, maybe the issue is caused by a plugin and refresh an article and see if the view counter increments.
If you want you can remove it with this custom CSS:
.single .td-post-views {
display: none;
}
Let me know how it goes!
Thank you!
Share on facebook: Image is not shared on facebook. I have already tried to check the tag og that look right, I updated visual composer; use wordpress by Yoast with open graph activated.
How can I fix? The problem arose from a week before everything worked properly.
Hi,
Please make sure you update the theme properly via ftp, make sure all the files were uploaded. Then clear cache and purge your files if you use CDN and also disable all the plugins except of Visual Composer and check if you still have this issue. Also disable any css/js minification.
The latest version of Visual Composer was tested with the theme and we did not found any issues.
Thanks!
Hi,
@newtrolluk and @dabiathlet
You have to use the Visual Composer provided with the theme version you have on your site. The new version 4.7.4 is tested with the latest version of the theme, so if you want to use it please update to the Newspaper 6.5.1.
If you update to version 6 – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ please also update the child theme, you can find it in the /code folder from theme files that you download from themeforest.
Thanks!
Hi,
1. The Our latest posts block from 404 template should display 6 from your latest posts. Here you can find the 404 template – http://screencast.com/t/r6p39bgXiA Please check this without any plugins active except of Visual Composer and clear cache.
Also you can translate “Our latest posts” from Theme Panel > Translations – http://screencast.com/t/geRDMTdoZzuU
2. Try to re-save the permalinks from Settings > Permalinks and also disable all your plugins except of Visual Composer, clear cache. Maybe it is caused by a plugin that you use. Do you use a redirect plugin?
Thanks!
Hello ronnie,
The latest version of visual composer was not tested with version 4 of our theme (it did not exist back then). If you want to use the latest version of visual composer, you have to update your theme to the latest version (6.5.1) as well. And only install the visual composer plugin that comes with the theme.
With newspaper 4 please use the plugin version that comes with your theme files.
For updating the theme from version 4 to 6 please check this topic here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/update-to-6-5-from-4-6/
I hope this helps.
Thank you!

Hi there,
After updating the theme and Visual Composer to 4.7.4 I get an unusual deprecated Visual Composer message and collection of icons at the base of every article and page. I am also prevented from editing or adding any block.
My page building has completely stopped. This does not seem to effect the front end performance or structure.
I upgraded the theme via FTP as the envato updater has not been working for some time. I deleted visual composer then added via FTP. The site is: http://coconutoilpost.com/ Can you please advise on how to restore the Visual Composer functionality?
I currently have a sub domain for testing a new version and it has no issues after the update with the same plugins. I have also tested all the plugins on both sites which did not resolve the issue. I have also deactivated and deleted then reinstalled and activated the plugin but still the bug persists?
Can anyone please advise. Here is a Link to a screenshot
Regards
Peter
Hi,
You can create you block in a page using Visual Composer, filter options, sort order, pagination – http://screencast.com/t/uC6tfp2w
Then edit the footer template that you use and use do_shortcode function – http://screencast.com/t/koR5Duvgj1 – http://screencast.com/t/0XCw4vunOH
<?php
if(is_single()) {
echo do_shortcode('[vc_row][vc_column][td_block_3 limit="6" ajax_pagination="load_more"][/vc_column][/vc_row]');
}
?>
Thanks!

Hello Rita,
1) Make sure you check all these options in the panel: http://screencast.com/t/n6nQwEkug and regenerate your thumbails using ‘force regenerate’ plugin. You can also use a thumbnail upscale plugin if your images are too small.
You can set the block to display the latest posts: http://screencast.com/t/uRGQJziZ and set a post limit of 20: http://screencast.com/t/cYMimmmkfu
2) You can create your page in visual composer without a sidebar and set the layout to a 2/3 + 1/3 and add your visual composer elements do the right side of the page: http://screencast.com/t/GkYeBHGUTk including an image element
This is how our default homepage is built.
You can read more here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer/
You can also watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rgWqozuqmJk
I hope this helps
Thank you!
Hello tnguyen27,
The plugin you installed is not needed as the theme already handles image thumbnails. The plugin overrides this option and may cause a conflict. Please disable all your plugins except visual composer, and regenerate you thumbs https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/ – https://forum.tagdiv.com/theme-thumbs/.
Let me know how it goes.
Thanks.
Sorry for the delay, we don’t work on weekend.
1. Try to increase the WP_MEMORY_LIMIT at 64MB or higher, here it’s a guide regrading this
http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP Also make sure that you install the plugin according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/ Do a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the plugin before uploading the new one.
Regarding the demo error import, this also can happened because the server security module blocks the access to admin-ajax.php file. When this it’s requested many times it’s treated as threat so it’s banned. You can report false positives to your server administrator to remove it from the banned list.
Note that some host may restrict the access at content provided from external sources, so you can check in cpanel if there are any options regarding this or contact your host provider and let him know about this.
Let us know how it goes and if you still can’t manage to solve this issue address via email at contact@tagdiv.com and provide wp-access and we will inspect this issue as soon as possible.
Thanks!
Hi,
Using Visual Composer pagebuilder, you can create/add buttons only for page content.
If you want to add it next to the header ad, you will have to edit the code:
*Here is the header ad – http://screencast.com/t/CcAmZjkSz
*It is used for each header styles(to have it in different position) – http://screencast.com/t/wNhmPEIHj7oh
So you cannot achieve this only if you alter the code and use the shortcode directly there and some css for positioning.
Thanks!
hi guys and thanks in advance for your great work.
I got this mail from enbato
We are getting in touch to let you know about multiple XSS security vulnerabilities in the Visual Composer WordPress plugin versions prior to 4.7.4 (releases prior to October 2, 2015). This plugin was included in items you’ve purchased (listed below).
We have been working with WP Bakery, the creators of Visual Composer, who have addressed all identified vulnerabilities and undertaken a code audit to ensure that it is as secure as possible. Theme authors whose items include Visual Composer have been instructed to make sure their items accommodate this upgrade. Items that include older versions of Visual Composer will be disabled from the market until this change is made.
Affected Items
Your items that include Visual Composer:
What You Should Do
In order to secure your item from these vulnerabilities we strongly encourage you to update to version 4.7.4 or later as soon as possible. We recommend you take the following steps to secure your sites immediately, after first backing up your WordPress site.
Visual Composer Plugin Update Steps
Log in to codecanyon.net and proceed to download the latest version of Visual Composer to your computer from this URL: http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431
Locate and unzip the downloaded plugin file.
Connect to your server using an FTP client and upload the js_composer directory (from the downloaded zip file) to the wp-content/plugins/ directory. (Note: This will overwrite the old Visual Composer files with the secure versions.)
Log into WordPress and navigate to the Plugins page to confirm the Visual Composer plugin is version 4.7.4
The link to the latest version, provided above, will be live for 3 weeks from the time this email was sent. After this period, you will need to access the latest version via your theme zip file.
Please note: This replaces the existing plugin under the licensing of the theme(s) you’ve purchased and is only licensed for use in these themes.
Your Security is Our Priority
We take security seriously at Envato. When we receive security vulnerability reports for items sold on our marketplaces, we work as quickly as possible to validate the report, investigate risk and determine the best course of action for the security of our community.
On behalf of the plugin creator and Envato, we’d like to apologize for this inconvenience and assure you that security is and always will be our priority.
Regards,
The Envato Team
when will the theme be updated? do we need to update? should be wait for you?
Thanks in advance!

I’m trying to use the ‘Go Button’ next to the top header 728×90 ad. I tried using the visual composer for it but it’s not working out as well as i thought. Is there an easy css to use for adding this button next to the ad? Ex: http://pasteboard.co/1fLZ8343.jpg
Thanks in advance!
Hello Julien,
Please make sure you use the latest version of the theme and the latest version of the social counter
https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
If you already use the latest version, please make sure the correct social id is typed in the social counter settings: http://screencast.com/t/PTNnG6afCxI
You can also try to insert a different ID to see if followers are pulled. (for example ‘cocacola’)
Your Facebook and Twitter pages need to be public. If they are not, the plugin won’t be able to access your followers.
If all these conditions are met, you can try one more thing. Disable all your plugins except visual composer and see if it’s not a conflicting plugin that causes the issue.
Let us know how it goes
Thanks.
Hi
Try to deactivate the Speed Booster plugin then check in browser console if the errors still appear. First try to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches and test again.
If the errors appear only when Speed Booster is activated, that happens because some plugins cause conflicts when their’s resources are moved to footer. You can check a plugin behavior with Speed Booster enabled by adding it on allowed plugins list: http://screencast.com/t/dCMffJFq or by moving its css/js resources at page bottom: http://screencast.com/t/P7r6uHvvJl
For more information regarding Speed Booster please check this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/speed-booster-questions/
Hope this help.
Thanks!
