Hello,
I think it’s great that you want to create your own page builder, especially if it is lighter and faster than Visual Composer. Here I want to share my opinion about tagDiv Composer and give you some feedback, if it is OK.
I think that you have a lot of work to do until you reach the level of Visual composer. I my opinion your backend editor is not so user friendly and here are few examples:
01. Native theme elements are visualized great, but others, like “Widget Sidebar”, are poorly visible. You can make the height of this element bigger, because now it is something like 20 px and it is difficult to grab & edit.
02. Rows, Columns and other main elements are hard to understand and edit. In VC is a lot better – bigger and clear editor elements and controls.
03. Text block element is not working for me, when I hit “edit content” text editor pops up with loading circle element, which never load. There is a hidden error in an iframe:
“Warning: require_once(/home/***/public_html/files/plugins/td-composer/includes/wpeditor.phpwp-load.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/***/public_html/files/plugins/td-composer/includes/wpeditor.php on line 13”
“Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/home/***/public_html/files/plugins/td-composer/includes/wpeditor.phpwp-load.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/local/php7.0/lib/php’) in /home/***/public_html/files/plugins/td-composer/includes/wpeditor.php on line 13”
04. Text written in Cyrillic is visualized as symbols and take a lot of space in WP content editor. Example of such text: 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
05. Why you don’t have 1/2 + 1/2 columns in build-in elements? It is confusing.
Other than that everything is working great with latest theme and plugins updates 🙂
p.s. I can not understand why this topic is not viewing correctly?!
Hello Mladen Gradev,
First of all, I will thank you for your appreciations in our theme!
1)Please keep in mind that there is talking about the developers and web designers decision https://www.screencast.com/t/9bKCM2eHOT
2)Rows and Columns option can be easily viewed if you will hover over the column area. IT seems to be very deductive option for rows and columns as you can see here -> https://www.screencast.com/t/6smUGWfm9v
3)First of all, make sure that your system status parameters are correctly increased according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/system-status-parameters-guide/ and then, if the problem is still there, please try to make a new clean install from scratch via FTP way because this is the surest theme method in this case, clear all the caches and check the results.
4)Try to follow this topic here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/strange-chinese-symbols-replaced-icons-and-arrows/ because maybe could be useful for you. Also, clear all the caches, purge all CDN files if you are using a Cloudflare system and check the results.
5)This type of layout is not available at the moment for this theme, sorry! If you will check our Newspaper theme, there you will found this layout for multipurpose elements.
Notice that your topic is not correctly viewed because it seems that you have to use a lot of words without space between them and there will appear the general problem with word-break. You can read here some hints -> https://kenneth.io/blog/2012/03/04/word-wrapping-hypernation-using-css/
Thanks for your understanding!
