Hi, we noticed the same thing when you have the speed plugin installed that Newspaper theme recommends. This for some reason causes the Ajax to not work properly, therefore causing the post count to not work. Then ajax next post feature seems to also not function after activating the speedboost plugin. Hope that helps. But we had the same issue. Maybe the Newspaper team can look into this.

Hi,

Please make sure that this also happens without any other plugins active/ empty cache/ purge files then check your browsers console for errors as those features work based on js so make sure that you don’t have any js conflicts.
Please make sure you try this and let me know how it goes and also provide your site’s URL so I can also check this as I haven’t been able to recreate this using the latest theme version (4.6.1).

Thanks

try disabling all your site plugins, except for Visual Composer.

If you are using a caching system, or you see a big [clear cache] button in your admin (as with GoDaddy), you need to clear that.

With only the theme active and Visual Composer active. Hit refresh [F5] on one of your post pages; the “view counter” should increment by 1 when you do so. Did that work?

If so, then turn on your other plugins one by one and re-test until you find the plugin which is breaking the theme.

Only you can do this, as you need to learn to manage your own website.

If you are using a caching system/plug-in you need to use an advanced setting in the theme to enable “ajax counter” capability; where the theme attempts to use javascript (JS) to increment the counter, since the caching would normally preclude or block that from working (e.g., the idea of caching is to serve up a page which does not change; so how can the counter change on the page if it’s cached and not actually being served as new page – logical, right?).

This is the best way to “debug” why your particular instance does not work.

Then post an update here with a sample page link to one of your posts, if you can’t get it working. 🙂

For example on this page:
http://www.miseeharris.com/deflategate-nfl-investigating-patriots-footballs/

you have a whole bunch of errors, one seems related to ads, one with JQUERY, as if a plugin is trying to load something; a bunch of “access denied” errors; and looks like some error related to a social media element, and a slideshow element.

If using a plugin for any of that kind of thing, it might be the fault!
