Hi. I have updated to Newspaper 8. I have Visual Composer and TD Composer installed. I have cloned a page and started editing it with TD Composer in draft mode. However, I can not find all the blocks I used in Visual Composer, for example the icon button (eye catching icon from libraries). So with TD composer I can not build the page exactly the same as I had it. Am I wrong?
Thanks.
Hello mmeida,
Please keep in mind that is not recommended to be used both of page builders at the same time because might appears some conflicts between them, sorry! Also, if you want to use our page builder you should recreate your homepage from scratch using the TD Composer. For more information about transitions between these page builders you should consult our useful guide here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/
Notice that our builder is at the beginning and also, it is in a continuous development. You will not found all the elements which Visual Composer has. From now on, this plugin will be improved with some features which have to be exclusively for this builder. In the future, this feature can be released but unfortunately, we cannot say for sure when exactly this process will be done, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
Hi, Catalin. Thanks for your answer. I am following exactly the steps indicated in the tutorial that you link:
- Step 1 – Install both the Visual Composer and tagDiv Composer plugins.
- Step 2 – The page has to be recreated using the new page builder. You will have to build a new page and edit it with the tagDiv Composer replicating your original page (made with Visual Composer).
- Step 3 – Save the page. Replace your homepage with the newly created one. You can always revert to the original page if you encounter any problems.
As far as I understand, you have to have both plugins installed, so I don’t understand “Please keep in mind that is not recommended to be used both of builders at the same time”.
But on what I was asking, it seems clear that the blocks offered by TD Composer do not correspond entirely with those of Visual Composer and therefore it is not possible to rebuild all the pages that were created with Visual Composer.
Regards.
Hello mmeida,
Notice that you can install both of the page builders to be able to recreate your pages with TD Composer but then, you should disable the Visual Composer because it seems to cause some interferences between them and cause some problems and that’s why I made this above. Notice that our page builder does not have included all the Visual Composer elements and that’s why you cannot recreate some elements with our page builder, sorry!
Thanks for your understanding!
I mean that I must disable VC after I’ve recreated my pages. Right?
Hi,
Yes, you should deactivate Visual composer if you made the transition to the tagDiv composer. In some cases having both the editors active some layout issues can be present. In future updates more elements will be added to the front-end composer exclusively, and many more features.
Thanks
