Hello,

with this update you only gave us a tons of many hours to work. We needed months to make our page look great and functional, and now we must recreate everything from scratch. We cant’ make a new page, which took us monts, now in just 3 minutes?!?! Are you serious.. i mean.. now we are working with it, and a lot ob functions are missing, there are only 4 row layouts, there is no searh box – we need it, because our site is based as search browser for tourism, and we had search box on every page , for visitors to see it. Fine, it looks nice for editing, looks modern, but, now we must totally change the look of our page, beacuse there are no functions that we used before.
Sorry for harsh words, but you have to understand, we invested a lot of hard work in this page, and now.. like we haven’t done anything in past months…

For editing content, is nothing, just blank space, you can’t write in it nothing.. I can’t deactivate visual composer, beacuse all pages are made with it.. and if i turn it off, the whole look of webpage will be awful..

Text block is missing, how to write contenct on homepage, i don’t have page made just with grids and block, i have a content written in text blocks, now i can’t do this anymore… how i can do this now??

Hello,

You do not have to move over to the new builder right away. you can take it slow and have both active at the same time. Simply do not use one builder to edit a page created with the other. If you want to edit your old pages, do it with visual composer. For new pages, use the tagdiv composer and create new ones in time. You can still use visual composer. We did not remove it from our theme. We will however in the future put more emphasis on our own page builder rather than visual composer so we suggest moving over to the new builder.
You can place text in pages using the builder: https://www.screencast.com/t/ThV3YGomW9U or simply in the back-end using the tiny mce editor of wp.
This guide should help with the transition: https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
Spending months on a single page seems overkill though. As you can see from our video, you actually CAN do it in 3 minutes.

Thank you!

Now we are building sites in tagdivcomposer, but some features that we used before aren’t here anymore. Like search box, rss, more page layouts? Will this be added to the tagcomposer or not? Yes we inserted text with title, but when we opened – edit content – as you can see from the photo from my last post, you can’t do anything, so you still have to switch back to visualcompsoer to add content. This is what i’m trying to say, that you still have to use some features of visual composer, like text block, because it isn’t functioning yet in tagdivcomposer. By months i meant that we came to the desire look of page – me moved, wrote, added, new content over the time, the page was built with visual composer quite fast, i meant the whole process of building the webpage. We got used to visualcomposer, and now, all over again. Its problem, because some functions aren’t available in tagdiv anymore, that’s the whole problem. So i’m asking once more, will this missing features be in tagdiv composer or not? Otherwise its ok the new builder, just some little extra features. 🙂

Thank you.

Hello,

Yes indeed, we did not copy visual composer. We did not add all of it’s features in our builder. Some options are missing for the moment but we do plan on adding them in.
As for the content, you should be able to ad content to your site without issues as this video suggests: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N2wGizMz4X0
You cannot add the features that are not present, yes, because they have not made it into the builder yet, but not everyone uses the extra options you mention like search box, rss, etc.

There will be more elements for the page builder for sure in future releases as this is our plan.

Thank you!
