Thank you for your answer!
My site is m24digital.com
I tried to activate Newsmag theme but visual composer didn’t work. So I have to return to my old theme.
Hi,
Please make sure that you enable only Visual Composer, disable all other plugins that you have, empty cache and check if you still have this issue. Also please make sure that you have the latest version of Visual Composer 4.4.3.
If you still have this issue please send an email at contact@tagdiv.com provide wp-acces so we can take a look, also paste a link to this topic so we can know who you are.
Thanks!
Hi,
Our theme version is Newspaper 4.6.1.
I’m having trouble trying to get the latest version of Visual Composer 4.6.2. Currently we have installed Visual Composer 4.4.4.
How do I upload into my computer files the update? When I select Newspaper/includes/plugins/js_composer.zip from my downloads it only brings up the 4.4.4 version (I have it dated 24 April 2015).
Our site is http://cremafriends.com/
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
The latest version of the Visual Composer plugin (4.6.2) hasn’t been tested with your theme version so in your case it would be best to continue using the 4.4.4 version if it’s working or install version 4.3.5 which should be used with theme version 4.6.1 as this version of VC plugin was provided within theme’s /plugins folder: http://screencast.com/t/s86Lh7teEW
If you want to use the latest version of Visual Composer plugin then you need to update the theme to version 6 which has support for later versions of VC plugin and it’s also included within full theme’s package.
If you decide to update please follow this guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ backup your current install, run the import settings script, update plugins and check the result. You can always get back to the previous working theme version if something goes wrong as long as you backup it but doing the update as instructed the theme should work fine.
You should also consider into the process at the following aspects:
– backup your current theme/WordPress/database: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
– setup a maintenance mode and you can use a plugin for that.
– empty all caches/purge files if you also use CDN host then disable any services of this type until you switch to the new theme
– disable all plugins
– install the theme then install the required plugins
– switch back the rest of the plugins and start other services
Let us know how it goes!
Thanks
Hi
Totally off this topic….
I don’t want some of my widgets to show on my mobile view. How do I do that. Also, I don’t want the “more article box” to slide in on mobile view. What are the css codes?
Hi BeautyGeek,
Please open a new tread when you have some questions or need guidance concerning the theme. Thanks!
The theme doesn’t have any option to disable widgets on mobile screens however you can do it using custom css, target widgets using widget’s specific class or id and media queries, like this: http://screencast.com/t/Dkkz8prDkD
This is the css code I’ve used:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td_block_id_1775388033 {
display: none;
}
}
To hide the more article box use this css code in theme panel > custom css section:
@media (max-width: 767px) {
.td-more-articles-box {
display: none;
}
}
Thanks for the message!

Hi,
I just updated the Newsmag to the latest version and also updated the visual composer plugin. WordPress running is 4.5.
The Big Grid does not work now.

Won’t it delete all our settings on various pages, if we delete the Visual Composer first and then install the new one to update the plugin?
Hi
All page content and settings are stored in database and won’t be lost when the plugin is updated. However as a security measure do a full backup to your current wp-install and the database: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups
Thanks!
I’m doing a clean install on a new EC2 instance. If I install the 2.3.6 package with the 13 April js_composer, will Visual Composer then work properly?
Hi
You also need to update the Visual Composer plugin at V 4.11.2 which is included in theme’s path and it should work fine.
Thanks!
I just bought the theme this weekend, and visual composer does not work for me either. I have v4.11.2. I’ve tried reinstalling the theme, reinstalling vc, and still nothing. There are two picture I took here: Dropbox
In the picture of compose post, none of the buttons work either.
OK, I deactivated all the plugins and then reactivated visual composer, and it works. So now I guess I have to figure out which plugin is causing the problem?
(BTW, i put a post on newsmag forum by mistake. Please disregard).
Hi
I lost the Visual Composer functionality for all my site. I need it. I have 4.4.2 version an the last update of your theme. I was checking and I have the right access at Visual Composer.
Can you help me please.
excuse me, I installed the plugin and now is working. Thanks.
Hi guys, has this been fixed as part of the theme? I can’t get the visual composer working in the backend and would like to get this fixed as its affecting the homepage of my website.
Hi
Visual Composer it’s tested an works fine. Make sure that you’re using V 4.11.2 of VC, clear all caches then test again. Here you can check our documentation for more detail about the update process: https://forum.tagdiv.com/newsmag-how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/
Thanks!
Hi mate,
Thanks for the response. I tried to deactivate the old one and then select the new one but the installation fails stating that the composer directly is already existing.
Do I need to deactivate and delete the old Bakery Visual Composer and then install the new one? In fact I’ve tried this too and then when I go to open the Homepage in the backend I still don’t get to see the visual composer, it just doesn’t load regardless of what I try.
Any help in this matter would be appreciated as I’m pretty stuck!
Regards
Gags
Hello Gags,
Make sure the visual composer plugin is deactivated from the plugins section and then access your files via ftp and delete this folder: http://screencast.com/t/VYmsvUfXY
After that, you can install the visual composer plugin from here: http://screencast.com/t/pJPPg0ue
Thank you!
