Hi
I want to make a compilation on a page with links to other people’s web shops.
The look should, if possible, be similar to my category/tag template. Or at least a grid with three pictures per row. http://www.ladiesabroad.se/category/asien

When the picture or title of each post/page is clicked, the readers should be directed to the different external web shops. Not to a page on my blog. Simalar to this one, but the below buttons are not neded. http://fantasiresor.se/shop/

Do you have any suggestions how to do this?

Hi,

For this you can make use of the new image box element. You can add different images with links to your preferred url: http://screencast.com/t/20efFaK4

Hi

I have visual composer 4.12; meaning no Image Box element to choose. I guess this means I have to upgrade. I have found the site for how to upgrade https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/, but where du I upload the file Newspaper\includes\plugins\js_composer.zip from? Or from where do I download it to my computer from?

Thanks from Lena

Hello,

The image box comes from the theme, not visual composer so you will have to upgrade the theme as well.
Please use this guide to update your theme: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and then update visual composer using the guide above.

Thank you!

Hi

OK, I have updated the theme installing the envato plugin. Q1: Does thos mean I will never have to update the theme manually again? Q2: Where do I find the current version of my theme?

I still do not have ImageBox as an option, and I u understand it I will still have to update Visial Composer manually as described here https://forum.tagdiv.com/update-the-visual-composer-plugin-wpbakery/. Q3: Where do I find or download the file Newspaper\includes\plugins\js_composer.zip from? Q4: Can I somehowe make Visual Composer update itself automatically? I believe your FAQ says it will be updated with the theme?

I also use Slider Ravolution. Q5: How do I update that plugin? Can I make it updating itself as well

Thnaks.

Hello,

The envato market plugin will automatically update your theme.
You can see the current theme version on the official themeforest newspapewr page: https://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609?s_rank=1
Please make sure you have version 7.6 of the theme: http://screencast.com/t/fkZDkgz1aHm0
You can find the visual composer plugin in the main theme archove you can download from envato. The envato market app will not provide the latest version of visual composer so you will still have to download the theme package to update visual composer. The plugin will not update automatically.
The same goes for revolution slider. If they are bundled with the theme free of charge, they will not update automatically.

Thank you!
