Hello.

I tried to update to Newspaper 6 from newspaper 4 but all was wrong, I did a backup and restore all.

I follow all the steps but when I finish to update the website appears as this:

http://oi57.tinypic.com/2rrm4ba.jpg

All the content is bad… What I do it wrong?

Are there any services to do the update and the desing and structure still same that I have in Newspaper 4 ?

Thank you very much and sorry if my english it is not good.

Hi,

Please make sure that you update the theme properly using this guide – https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ and also disable all your plugins before update. After update please make sure that no files from version 4 will remain, to make sure of that you can try to update via ftp – https://forum.tagdiv.com/install-via-ftp/ then update also the theme’s plugins from the /plugin folder, activate it from here – http://screencast.com/t/ZtkWY5ykJgCh and make sure that you use the latest version – http://screencast.com/t/nn2stdsARkr check your site only with Visual Composer active and see if it works.
Please note that in version 6 any customization(to the theme files, custom css) from old version will not work and you will have to re-add them. In the “how to update” guide is specified that you will have to run the script that will import from database your settings, will change the shortcodes. Unfortunately you will have to re-add your widgets in the sidebars as some of them may not be imported or don’t exist anymore, also they will become inactive.

Thanks!
