Hi there,
I would like to know, if it’s possible, what kind of block is in my screenshot and how it is configured (with the dark background etc.)

This block can be seen on the Newspaper 7 sport demo: http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper_sport/ (in the middle of the page)

Thanks in advance tagDiv team 🙂

Hello Mantis,

Please notice that this type of element over you are referring to is just a simple Block 14 which is limited to display only 3 posts and which are placed into a full width row with the stretch rule. You can try the following code and place it in Back End editor in Visual Composer. The code should be found here -> http://pastebin.com/4fRP24YV Then you add this code you should use a bit of CSS for better results. Try the code below and place it in Theme panel -> Custom CSS area.

#td-outer-wrap{
overflow:hidden;
}

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the message!

Thanks for your help!

But I’m not sure where I have to put this code:

[vc_row full_width="stretch_row" el_class="td-homepage-full-row" css=".vc_custom_1477652713189{background-color: #7a7a7a !important;}"][vc_column][td_block_14 sort=”random_posts” limit=”3″][/vc_column][/vc_row]

What is the back end editor in visual composer ??

Ok I see, this is the Shortcode Mapper in Visual Composer settings !

But when I do this, ALL my blocks in my homepage becomes dark ! And I want just the block 14 to be like this…

Hello Mantis,

The back end of Visual Composer can be found in the panel, when you create/edit your own page, like this -> http://screencast.com/t/ZUpqOKjUuNC You should insert that code there, clear all your caches and check the results.

Thanks for your understanding!

Hi the team,
Since the theme 7.8 update, the modification I’ve made before (read above this topic) doesn’t work anymore.

Any idea ?

Hello Mantis,

Provide your website URL so I can inspect it closer.

Thanks for the message!

SOrry Catalin but you will see nothing, because I have removed the block (block 14) that was only showing a large blank space instead of his original layout.

Before the update it was a block 14 just like in the demo site with a dark background…

Hi,

There were a few changes to the theme grid since then so you will have to recreate the element for it to show up again. Here is an example: https://www.screencast.com/t/Oh2e91u6

Thank you!
