Hi I have been trying to update and add to my home page and the visual composer seems to not be loading. Even when I try to create a new page with the composer it is not working, do I need to update it somehow or what should be my next step. Thanks

Same problem here, since I updated to WordPress 4.5.

I fixed mine, it required a Newspaper update and a WP Bakery plugin update that is included with the download of the Newspaper update. It was a bit of a convoluted process, because the plugin was too big to be uploaded from within my WP Dashboard and I had to FTP it. And, normally I wouldn’t download the Newspaper update because I use Envato Toolkit to update the theme from within the site. The Envato Toolkit update did not update WP Bakery.

Is there a support for this theme, I cannot make visual composer editing work.

And also how do I update to newspaper 6 from within WordPress without needing to uninstall as indicated form your YouTube video.

Hello Harrison,

Please notice that the latest version of WordPress ‘broke’ the Visual Composer and you need to install the latest version of this (4.11.2). For updating the theme, you have 3 way to do it -> installing via FTP (recommended), via WordPress or automatically update via Envato Toolkit. For more information about these ways, please check here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-automatically-update-newspaper-theme/ -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/

Thank you for your understanding!
