Search Results for 'use visual'

@steven Yeah, I was kinda excited to use the block 10 for revamping my homepage after seeing it on the changelog.

Same, I cant find anything that has to do with this and now im starting to get very tired of looking for it.

The only setting i can find is: http://www.screencast.com/t/uYNOjXARrW and if i tick that box, refresh and empty cache and what not, well nothing happens. Either way it cant be it since i have no options to what size i want like it was before. This is under the Visual Composer settings…

If Newspaper is moving for Bootstrap 3 perhaps we could use these functions anyway. Not everyone is making sites for cellphones.. I am not. Tablets and PC… where my site has looked good so far… Not so much now if windows arent fullscreen…

Hello Lucian.

Thank you for your answer. I don’t have any problem to set up background colour for full website.

I’m using Visual editor and I added few ROW and I trying to set up background colour for full 100% width. Now the colour is only 1170px

That’s about it. Of course there are situations when an upgraded plugin requires some changes to the theme that may delay the upgrade of that plugin even there are theme updates available. For example, VC recently updated from v2.x to v3.x and we got three or four theme updates before they upgraded the VC plugin, because of the changes in the theme required.

So yes, as far as bundled plugins, go with tagDiv’s updates and rest assured they’ll keep all features within Newspaper copacetic.

Exactly! A lot of theme developers work this way by including a “bundled” version vs making you go buy a copy, but the the new version adds some wonky thing which might break the theme. So, this is a good way to do it, but kind of annoying at times, if you’re easily annoyed by the “updates available” notice in the WP login screen 🙂

At least WP stopped the stupid email thing they had for a few versions … “email: you have updates available; I tried updating, but it didn’t work …” …. automatic updates not a great thing, in my book. (I turn them off in my wp-config.php file, actually.)

I think there have actually been more problems with YOAST SEO than any other plugin in recent memory. Three updates in one day sometimes … x1, x2 (OOPS DON”T USE IT), then x3 to fix the messup in x1 they didn’t fix right in x2, all in one day. Upshot: never install the new version of YOAST unless it’s to fix long standing bugs, as they often have a panic fix later on.

Sorry … didn’t mean to editorialize so much … 🙂

That’s VERY helpful! Thanks for the clarification and the speedy reply! So, if I understand you correctly, there’s no need to update any of the bundled plugins because they will automatically be updated when the theme itself gets updated. Is that right?

If so, it sounds like an excellent safeguard against “breaking my site.”

Yeah it bugs me too, especially when VC updates and there’s no new update on the theme yet. The phantom update notice and all.

But licensing prohibits tagDiv from giving out a license to VC, which would allow you to update the plugin directly, and the VC plugin has been well customized by tagDiv for seamless integration with Newspaper. If you were to get the plugin update outside of a Newspaper release, things on your site would break because features missing, added, and altered from the core release of VC.

Have a good one.

You might want to read the documentation. The plugin is a “bundled version” which is included with the theme. It is updated when the theme is updated, to ensure the theme is compatible with new version. Generally speaking there are no new features in the latest dot revision not showcased in the theme demo on themeforest, so you’re not “losing anything” by waiting for a fully tested update that won’t break your website.

You may wish to peruse the theme docs, note link top right of this forum “documentation” and this page specifically:
https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/

Hope that helps 🙂

I needed this also, and the example provided in the screenshots above worked first time out.

Basically you’re wrapping a span class for the button in the anchor link, vs using a shortcode for the button. The example does not use the shortcode which I think is where you’re getting hung up here.

Think of it this way, and this is not the explicit example from Lucian’s code, just simpler way of showing what is happening, while *not* using a shortcode. And be sure to do in text editor mode, not visual editor mode as you’re working with plain HTML/CSS.

Yeah, basically some new features, house cleaning; a lot of wp configuration tools under the hood; but not the big “security panic” updates of some of the recent dot revisions. But always check the codex to see changes, since if there is a notable security fix you SHOULD update to remain secure.
