I received the email to update my Newspaper Theme along with another email with instructions on what to do. Thank goodness I did a backup.
I updated the theme and my header and footer disappeared and left a bunch of code in its place. Then, as instructed I activated TagDiv Composer, something that I normally don’t use. When I did that my website disappeared completely and two lines of code were left in its place. Having no other instructions or guidance I restored my site from the backup.
I only have one page on my site that was done in Visual Composer, yet all pages and posts were affected.
Anyone have ideas.
Hello,
The tagdiv composer has become a major requirement for the current version of the theme.
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 for understanding!
I did activate TagDiv Composer and my site went blank after that. I am going to stick with the current version of Newspaper and start looking for a different theme.
