Text effect in Pre-Comp is not showing up in render.

[JAYWONDUR]

I have made a text layer and effects to the text, which were warp and motion tile. When I render this though, the background is only shown and the moving warped text is not there. How do I fix this?

Without any actual info about render settings and such we can'ät be sure, but my best guess would have to be that this is an hardware acceleration issue or other resource shortage. In fact you may even already see it in the preview when switching to full resolution and 100% zoom. A 1000+ pixels text layer repeated a bunch of times with Motion Tile can easily result in a very large internal buffer and the only way to fix it may be to use more moderate settings or change the effects setup.

I lowered the pixel width and it finally renders perfectly! Thank you!

From your screenshots and your workflow description, I can tell that you have 3 Compositions in the Project, that there is no animation on the background jpg layer so there is no reason for the parenting, there is only 1 keyframe visible in layer 1 but I'm assuming there is another. The nested comp looks like it is only one layer and it does not appear to be animated. I don't see any guide layers, so I'm assuming that you sent the comp to the Media  Encoder when you had layer 1 turned off. 

Press the U key twice with all layers selected in both comps and look for modified properties. Double-check the rendering workflow. If all else fails add the comp to the Render Cue and use the default Lossless Output module setting to render a production master and check that. You'll see what is rendering as it renders. You should also check the preview in the Adobe Media Encoder. The problem is most likely just a user error or a random glitch than a bug.
