First problem: Why are you trying to write to files inside the Plugin folder? wp-content/uploads is usually web-writeable on WordPress, whereas folders in themes and plugins should NOT be web writeable, for security reasons. When I unlock our site, the error message goes away.
As a WordPress developer (plugin, theme and core WP) absolutely dialed in on securing and hardening WordPress, I am dismayed that you want to create these files inside the plugin folder.

Second, we run tagDiv Composer on a *very* large MultiSite network (24 sites, 50+ gigs of content in wp-content/uploads). When we unlock the site (see first issue), tagDiv Editor just sits there and hour-glasses all day long. We have no issues with this on single standalone sites. Health Check is below the image…

Hi,
The tagDiv Composer need access to write to files an access certain functions.
You can check more about for what are using the permission here -> https://wordpress.org/support/article/changing-file-permissions/
Please make sure that you edit only the pages and post that was build with tagDiv Composer.
Please make sure that all the settings are like in our requirements, please follow the guide carefully
– https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
and please increase all requirements that are lower, and follow all steps.
Make sure that the php version is 7.1 or 7.2 not 7.3 also make sure that the wp-memory is at list 256MB.
Please make sure that you do not have a plugin conflict with untested plugins, please deactivate all non theme/tested plugins, also if you are using child theme, clear all cache and try again.
Let me know the results!
Thank you!
#1, properly coded/developed themes and plugins should only write to folders directly under /wp-content/ (Caching scripts do this properly). They should never write directly to a folder inside theme or plugin folders. To allow this is to potentially invite your site to be compromised. I spent nearly 5 years at my last job hardening and securing (200+) WordPress sites. I’m doing the same for my current job (will be 100+ WP sites, soon).
#2. “Please make sure that you edit only the pages and post that was build with tagDiv Composer.” This is on a brand new page being created to replace older pages that have both WP Bakery and TD Composer.
#3. Why was support for PHP 5.x dropped? I should also note, AGAIN, that we’ve got this also in use on stand-alone sites (on the same server cluster) where we can edit via the tD Composer interface without any issues.
#4. We found the issue… “WordPress MU Domain Mapping” plugin is incompatible with tD Composer.
We have a workaround in place, however, it’s not ideal, nor preferred.
Hello!
1. This method was adopted ( all the theme functionality was move in td composer plugin ) seance the envato requirements to have in the theme only the WordPress basic functionality, you can check more about this in our article from here -> https://tagdiv.com/updating-the-core-of-tagdiv-themes/
2. If you are using only the td Composer there will be no conflicts with the page and templates, using both builders there can appear some incompatibilities.
3. This requirement for php7 comes from WordPress -> https://wordpress.org/about/requirements/
4. Unfortunately, we did not tested the WordPress MU Domain Mapping plugin with our theme and therefore, we cannot say for sure if it will work or not as expected with the theme, sorry! Also, we cannot provide support for untested plugins ( support policy -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/support-policy-2/ ).
This is our list with tested plugins with our theme -> https://www.screencast.com/t/cmPkh9jba4sZ
Thank you!
