Hi Ali,

I have back up my files, tried to installed the theme again following C. Update the theme via WordPress

Step 1 – Deactivate the current “Newspaper” theme from the Appearance > Themes section by simply activating a different theme. Once you activate a different theme, delete the Newspaper theme. Don’t worry, your content will not be lost.
Step 2 – Get the “Newspaper.zip” file from your new Themeforest download (Installable WordPress file only). If you downloaded the “All Files & Documentation” from Themeforest, then you need to unzip the archive file you received, the Newspaper.zip will be inside it.
Step 3 – Go to Appearance > Themes, choose Add New Theme, Upload the “Newspaper.zip” and click on the “Install Now” button.
Step 4 – After your upload is finished choose Activate the theme.

I also ran the import script mentioned in the article. Now the elements of the visual composer (backend) are finally showing up correctly, it was gibberish before. However still nothing is displaying on my page built by visual composer….

PLease advise what else should be done…Thanks!

Hi Alin,

I am not sure which version it was but It was installed in Aug 2014, this is the first time I updated since the installation.
I used the automatic update (option b) in the article. Do I need to remove the files and update it again?
The problem does seem to be with the backend visual composer, since I am not a coder myself, I rely on it. I have some other pages with only simple text content which are showing up fine.

The URL is http://www.hkanimalpost.com

Appreciated if you can take a further look for me. Thanks in advance!
