Hello,
I am facing an issue related to tagdiv composer and newspaper theme.I have an application in which i had use the theme “Newspaper(Version : 8.1.2)” and now recently i have updated my theme as well as plugin also and after updating theme the new version of Newspaper theme is 9.7.2 due to of that i had seen that my application is crashed so can you please help me that how can i overcome from this issue. and which changes that i need to do in my application. Previously i have used visual composer plugin for page design but after update theme there is mandatory for activate tag div composer plugin. So when i activate both the plugins then i am facing issue related to design and related to some functionality.
Previously i had override some files and functions from parent theme version(8.1.2) and now i was updated my theme. But now i haven’t seen this files and function in parent theme but i have seen these on tag div composer plugin. So you have moved this files from parent theme to plugin and now i am facing issue with this confusion. and when i activate both the plugin (visual composer and tag div composer) then i am facing issue so i wan’t use tag div composer plugin and i want to remove from mandatory so suggest me how to overcome from all the issues.
Hi,
Maybe that happened due to the changes made in the theme starting from version 9.7
– https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
A notice was added in the themeforest page – http://prntscr.com/nsrvyc
This update is best to be tested in a development copy of the website if possible, instead of the live website.
Many theme files were moved in the tagDiv composer plugin in the update, due to the new Envato requirements. So now the composer is required to be active in order to maintain the same functionality. The files were moved here mostly – http://prntscr.com/nss4s7
As a consequence, modifications to theme files in a child theme is quite limited now, only a few files are still supported.
I can’t say how this would affect an application however, we made no testing in this matter before or after the update.
But for other issues I could take a look, mention what design and functionality problems you are facing after the update. Provide links and details about them, or even screenshots.
The most reported issue is with the single image element when placed with WPBakery and the tagDiv composer is active this will be fixed in the next theme update. The fix is provided in this topic – https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/single-image-widget-settings/
Thanks
Below i have added link of document in which i have mention the error which i faced in application.Please refer it:

Is there any way to resolved the issue which i had mention in below link without activating tagdiv composer.If there is any way then tell me even if needed to customize theme or plugin then also tell me how it is done? Because when i activate plugin then it occurs designing issue in whole application and it takes very long time to resolve it.So if there is any way to resolve the issue then tell me without activating plugin.

Hi,
The Newspaper theme update brings a change for the theme implementation.
When you’ll be updating to the Newspaper 9.7 version, you’ll need to activate the tagDiv Composer to keep the Newspaper theme functionality you’ve previously used.
Otherwise, you will have basic WordPress functionality, complying with Envato WordPress Requirements – https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements
Please read this article we wrote on the new update https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/ to learn what it changes and what you must do in order to keep the functionality intact.
Thank you!
Hi,
Most of the theme files were moved into the tagdiv composer plugin as per the requirements of envato: https://help.author.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000472383-WordPress-Theme-Requirements.
We wrote an article on the subject here: https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
Moving forward with such requirements, a child theme will only work with functions.php, and style.css as there are very few files left in the main theme as envato requires all functionality to be added through plugins.
Thank you for your understanding and sorry for the inconvenience!
