Hello,

You do not seem to have the page builder enabled. Please enable the tagdiv composer plugin.

Thank you!

Dear Bogdan,

Thanks for your answer. I must bring to your attention that I didn’t disable tagdiv composer plugin. I just upgraded from 8.7 to 8.8 via wordpress and that’s all. I had to re-enable all of them after that, cause all had been disabled automatically.

Please note that this upgrade are messing up the plugins and you guys should advise BEFORE clients upgrade it’s Newspaper themes.

Thanks for the support.

That’s going to happen every time you upgrade. I learned that the hard way. I upgraded and thought my site was broken and/or hacked, I proceeded to call my host and have them revert back to an older version of my site to “fix” it. The older version was a week old and I lost a lot of changes I had made in between. Turns out I just had to reactivate the composer. Cost me about 18 hours of work an frustration.

Hi,

We are constantly trying to further improve the automatic update for the tagDiv composer, still for some users this seems to fail, then it will remain deactivated (older versions may create problems with updated theme).
In case that happens it will have to be updated manually which should not be a time consuming process. Delete it and install it from the theme plugins panel

Update all the used theme plugins as well. Sorry for any inconvenience.

Thanks
