Hi. I changed my site from www to non-www via wp-config but the FontAwesome Icons are not showing anymore (shows some chinese characters). They work well whe I resume to www. How do I correct this? I have tried even adding Header add Access-Control-Allow-Origin` in .htaccess does not work.
Sorry. My host advised to use www version. Icons working now except telegram for users who are not logged in.
Hello epickenyan,
As for the Chinese symbols, please check this topic: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/
Thank you!
Had this problem again yesterday but managed to solve it. Thanks.
I Epickenyan,
Since nobody is helping me through my problems can i ask you something. I checked your website. Good work, run smoothly. Which page composer do you use? I had problem with using both at the same time and searched a lot but I dont know what to do. I am planing to reinstall my wp and reinstall newspaper without td composer? is wpbakery is enough? i am really lost here?
@Zilhan thank you for the compliment. I use the TD Composer coz of its dedicated elements built specifically for the theme (like the new flex box and td multipurpose plugin elements). The advice given here is that you should not use td composer and visual composer at the same time because it will cause plugin conflicts. So, the best option is to choose one and deactivate the other. So, the choice is yours, even though the recommended plugin since version 8.5 o4 8.6 has been TD composer because it is being optimized for the theme specifically.
Hi again Epickenyan,
Thanks for the response. I am newbie at this. I have some other questions:
-If there is an apparent problem with the composers why we should download both at first place? why they tell us to upload the visual composer after td composer?
-Should we upload the plugins in some order? For example I uploaded the cache plugin after I built some pages but I encountered many problems after it. (I am not sure tough)
-I decided to go with td composer but I need to start all over the site. What do you advice me for the beginning? (Not just for the theme, wordpress and the others settings)
thank you in advance
I also just know basic things from working with several WordPress themes, so most things about the theme are also technical for me. Now. let me try to answer your questions:
1. Some people were getting errors with their theme after updating to 8.7 and being told to install td composer first was in a bid to try and correct those problems. You can later deactivate td composer if you want to use visual composer. Though the theme developers recommend td composer coz it has elements developed specifically for the theme, with major (and minor) improvements coming in future. You don’t have to install visual composer after td composer if your theme works smoothly if you update visual composer (and bot page builders should not be used together to avoid conflicts).
2. Which cache plugin are you referring to? There is no specific order to install or update the theme specific plugins. If they do not update automatically after updating the theme, just deactivate and delete them and install them afresh from Newspaper>Plugins section or via ftp from the plugins folder of the Newspaper-rtf folder (the one you download from theme forest with al the files inside).
3. If you have chosen td composer, just know you will have to recreate any pages you made with visual composer afresh. The best advice I can give you, first, to know some basics about the newspaper theme coz it is the theme you are currently using, and second is is to always sure you back up your site (at least daily for the database and weekly for the whole site, and I recommend updraft coz it supports remote storage to google drive, Dropbox and others, and also back up the site before updating the theme). I would recommend this site http://www.wpbeginner.com if you want to learn anything about WordPress as a beginner coz it was very useful to me in the beginning (and still is, I, in fact, visit it at least once a week).
Hope that helps you out, and the tagdiv team can add on it.
