My entire website looks terrible and the plugins will not update I keep getting this:
PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
What happened??
It also doesn’t let me activate the td composer ???
I had to put my website into maintenance mode because I do not have a backup to roll back to a previous version and the theme is completely unusable right now everything is messed up see image below. All I did was update to the latest Newspaper version, never expected these issues. Now critical plugins disabled themselves mostly TD composer and will not enable itself or update. I get the above error anytime I try to activate the plugin. What happened?? How can I fix this?
I am using a child version of the theme.
Current website condition:

Hi,
Those are shortcodes. Please update the theme plugins, this should be done after each theme update. You can update them in the newspaper plugins panel
– http://prntscr.com/nuujj9 There should be an update button for each of them.
Then there should be no more shortcodes, instead there will be elements.
Thanks
The problem is that everytime I try to update the plugins either using the theme dashboard or the plugins page it gives me this error:
PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature
Td composer had also disabled itself and won’t enable again. Other people seem to be having this exact issue. Also, the desktop version now has the formatting of the mobile theme. There’s something wrong with the delivery of the update.
And just to add to my comment above, I have the child theme installed and activated. That’s what I’ve been using for the past year as I had a developer update the footer with an embedded contact form. Are you guys saying that the child theme is no longer supporter and that I need to switch over to the main parent theme and lose the development done on the other? I’m just trying to understand the situation now going forward with future updates.
Update:
I was able to correct the majority of the issues with the exception of one thing. I had two main images on my homepage below my slider and now I can’t seem to edit them at all as they appear cropped/glitched out on the homepage since the update. Here is a screenshot of some code I see in TD composer but there’s no way for me to edit it or click on it.
edit: I’m also noticing that the “empty space” and “single image” from the composer block shortcode is missing.
Final update: I fixed everything.
The solution:
– In order to correct the theme breaking from updating the template, I had to rollback, and then re-attempt the update which allowed me to activate and update TD composer
– For some reason, this update moved the mailchimp form that was embedded in the footer over to the sidebar..hmmm…I had to re-embed it and now it works again
– WP Bakery appears to be conflicting with TD Composer, I had to disable it in order to correct the above screenshot you see. Some TD composer elements were missing due to the WP Bakery conflict such as Single Image and empty spacer. Not sure why.
Glad you fixed the issues ultimately. Some elements including the single image and empty space will not be available in the composer as long as WPBakery is active. This was done to fix issues with those elements.
So if you use WPBakery the tagDiv composer being active won’t affect those elements as it happened previously, as they will be excluded from it.
