Hi

There are a few thing which must be considered when you update from V4 at V7 of Newspaper theme.
Newspaper 7 is practically a new theme, the whole code was rewritten so make sure you made a clean update, meaning that we recommend that you delete the old version of the theme before uploading the new one, more details can be found in our update guide: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ The shortcodes have been changed so old ones will not work anymore. Please note that old files customization or custom css will not work with the new version and you will have to adjust or re-add them.

Hope this help.
Thanks!

Hi Andrei,

I could have sworn I purchased version 6 – but when I go to update it says
version 4.

Can you take a look? It’s at seethroughthe.cloud

Your help is appreciated

HI

Current theme’s version available on themeforest is V 7.3 so try to download the theme again and install it according with our documentation: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/ Also trey to deactivate all plugins except Visual Composer, clear all caches then test the site again. Also make sure that you update Visual Composer at V 4.12 which is included in theme’s path: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-visual-composer-plugin/

Thanks!
