Yes — stay on this page. We’ll make a temporary addition, inspect the shortcode it generates, then remove the temporary block once I’ve used it to build your final code.

Step 1

In the current WordPress editor screen, click the blue TAGDIV COMPOSER button near the top left.

That should open the page in the visual tagDiv Composer. Once it opens, don’t delete or replace anything yet.

Step 2

In Composer, add a new temporary row/block below the existing Founding Meta-Agers content but still above the footer. This is only a test block, so placement does not matter much as long as it is on this page.

Then click Add Element and look for something named Flex Block, Flex Block 1, Flex Block 2, or similar.

Step 3

Add one Flex Block. Don’t worry about styling it properly yet.

If it offers a content source/category/query setting, point it at the same Founding Meta-Ager posts if that is easy. If not, leave the default posts — I only need to see the shortcode structure your installation generates.

Step 4

Click Save/Update in Composer.

Then return to the normal WordPress page editor where you currently see the Classic Editor block containing all the shortcode.

Step 5

Click Edit on that Classic Editor block.

Scroll toward the bottom and look for a new shortcode beginning with something like:

 
[td_flex_block_...
 

or another shortcode containing the words flex_block.

Copy only that entire new block shortcode and paste it here.

Do not delete your current td_block_16 yet. Once you send me the Flex Block shortcode, I’ll give you the complete page code in one piece so you can replace everything in the way you prefer.

 
 

I click on Row and nothing happens
 

Don’t change anything on the page yet. If clicking Row does nothing, I don’t want you experimenting in a working page based on my assumptions about your particular tagDiv version.

Instead, leave this page exactly as it is and open a separate temporary page in another browser tab. That gives us a completely safe sandbox.

Do this next

Go to Pages → Add New and create a page called something like Flex Test. You do not need to publish it.

On that blank page, click TAGDIV COMPOSER. Once Composer has loaded, tell me exactly what you see — or, better still, send me a screenshot.

Then I’ll guide you from that screen one click at a time to create the Flex Block. We won’t touch the live Founding Meta-Agers page again until we have the exact working shortcode from your installation.

 
 

Oh dear we have lost the Page images
 

Yes — the screenshot makes the failure clear. The images themselves have not been deleted. The post block is no longer being interpreted as a shortcode; you can actually see

Founding Meta-Agers

Participation Has a Face

Meet the people helping shape a new identity for how we live as we age.

The Founding Meta-Agers are not ambassadors chosen because of their fame. They are the first people to publicly embrace the Meta-Ager philosophy and demonstrate it through the way they live. They come from different worlds—sport, business, medicine, hospitality, education, the arts and everyday life—but they share one belief: that ageing does not have to mean withdrawing from life. Each continues to participate, contribute and grow, showing that identity is shaped not by age, but by the standards we choose to live by. Together, they are helping introduce a new conversation. Not about living longer, but about remaining fully present in the years we have. Ageing is inevitable. Withdrawal is not.

Then click Save, followed by Update if WordPress presents both controls, and refresh the public page.

What I expect to happen

The five-across Founding Meta-Ager images should return exactly as they were in your original screenshot. The raw

 text immediately above the footer should disappear.

If that happens, we’re safely back at the starting point.

Then we stop editing this live page. The next stage should be done on a completely separate unpublished test page, and I’ll take you through it one action at a time. We won’t put anything else into this page until we’ve seen the new layout working elsewhere first.
