    Hello!

    I just went into the backend of my website to update a few things and I can't update any of my pages because I cant access the Visual Composer. I've attached a photo of what it looks like on the back end. Nothing is visable. When I click on Visual Composer is links to a page asking me to pay for it however Visual Composer came with my theme when I purchased Newave.

    I need to figure out what is going on as soon as possible as I have a ton of changes that need to be made to the website. 

    Thank you,

    Nicole

    Hello Nicole,

    Most likely the visual composer is out dated. We can install the latest if you provide wp admin username and password in a private comment AND make sure you support period for the theme is not expired. if it has, you must extend it.

    Thanks


    Thank you.

    Hello! Following up on the below. It appears visual composer has been updated again and I no longer have access to make changes to my website

    Another example of how things changed - I used Visual Composer to create the services carousel so why is the Visual Composer section saying I have a blank page but in the Service Box is has the information in code. I don't write code, hence the need to use the Visual Composer but I'm nervous to change anything as I don't want to ruin the website. See attached.

    Hi,

    The Wp Bakery Page Builder (formerly known as Visual Composer) is shipped with the theme and has a shared license. This is why we are able to offer it for free. However, you don't have access to automatic updates.

    You will either have to buy a full license or contact us to update it. We periodically release theme updates which contain the latest version of the plugin as well.

    Send us wp admin access in a private comment so we can update it.


    Thank you.

    Hello, I have a similar problem...

    I bought newave theme in 2018 but finally i didn't need it. Yesterday I wanted to do a website and i decided to use it.

    The problem was that many things didn't work. The menu was very separated from the banners, if I disable the title of the sections then the text moves up and below the top section, the footer does the same... And the worst thing is that wp bakery does not work at all :S

    I'm using php 7.3 and the last version of wordpress. And I downloaded your theme files yesterday. It is supposed to be updated, isn't it ?

    Can you help me please ?  :S  

    I need to do this website urgently

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I've exactly the same issue. I've just updated my WP and I can't access to any portfolio pages! What is the the concrete solution please? Do we have to pay now to access to our website??

    Regards


  • Laura replied

    Hi,

    I have updated my WP today and I can't access to my pages anymore because of the WP bakery license.

    It's unbelievable!! And now i need to pay WP bakery $45 because I can't have support from you has my license expired few month ago! I need to pay you again ($23) just to get an explanation or any help from you! 

    But as it's not my fault (it's a license problem between you and WP bakery) I don't know why I will have to do any payment!! When I bought my template it came with Visual composer or whatever to use it; you never told the client that at some point he will have to pay for any upgrades (more $$$ than the template itself btw)!

    Could you please give me a solution.

    Regards

    Hi Support,

    Thank you for your reply.

    As my purchase code has expired I don't have access to the full option on this forum (so I can't put it in a private mode). Do you have any email?

    Hello, WpBakery doesn't work on my website. All the files are updated. Which is the problem ? 

    I have the same problem as Laura, i cannot create a new ticket.

    To everyone concerned:

    we have updated the theme with the latest WPBakery. To get the latest version of the theme just re-download it from themeforest

    The plugin itself can be found in /plugins_required/js_composer.zip (path relative to the theme folder) and can be upgraded manually by removing the old version and installing the new one. This is in case you don't want a full theme upgrade.

    We do not provide our email addresses the support is done via ticksy forum exclusively. You may want to extend your support period in case you cannot create new tickets.


    Thank you.

    Hi, ok thanks. I try to solve it.

    But I have another problem with the theme. If i disable the titles of the sections, then the content goes up below the section before (so, below the section that i have before the one i disable the title)

    Does the theme work with the last version of wordpress, 7.3 php version and 5.7 version of mysql ?

    Thanks,

    Anna

  • Xununa replied

    Excuse me ? Are you selling a theme which only works with 5.3 php version ? That version is not supported anywhere... You have to pay extra money monthly if you want to use this version of php on a server...

    This is the problem ! Are you going to solve it ?!... :S

    I'm using your last theme version and last php version and last wpbakery version and last wordpress version. And it does not work.

    I have already bought another theme cause my client cannot wait more weeks.

    Hello,

    I was able to get the video to work on the home page however on mobile the video does not work and instead there is a blank space that says "Video Placeholder Image". Is there a way I can fix this so the video will play? Or at the very least can I plug in a new photo so it looks professional?

    Thank you for your help,

    Nicole

    Hi Nicole,

    Add to customizer -> additional CSS

    .video-section {
         background-image: url('add the url of the mobile poster image here');
    }


    Thank you.

    Thank you so much for the response. Do you know the correct dimensions for the mobile poster image? The ones I have are too wide so I would like to create a new one specifically for this.

    Also, is there a way to remove the grey filter over the image on mobile and video on computer?

    Thank you!

    Nicole

    Hi Nicole,

    Use as reference 1500 x 800 px (width vs height) 

    To remove the grey filter use

    .pattern {
        background: none;
    }

    in customizer -> additional CSS

    Thank you.
