Menu ShortCodes not saving

EDIT: It turns out the issue is much larger than this plugin.

I updated WPBakery’s Visual Composer plugin, because there was an update for it.

Now my theme is conflicting with the VC plugin (drag/drop interface to access elements, functions, yadda yadda to make the page work without coding it manually).

It’s likely something to do with the theme’s php referencing a dated version of the plugin, or the syntax yadda yadda.

I notified the Theme developer and WPBakery about it.

Thing is, the theme I purchased literally requires me to run WPBakery’s plugin.

So…It’s like I have a 3 day weekend. Except I don’t.
Anyway, TL;DR: your plugin rocks.

Hi cantonjester,

Sorry to hear you’re having trouble with Visual Composer. It’s kind of got a bad reputation among developers for that reason, but I know a lot of themes on ThemeForest rely heavily on it.

Good luck!

I’ve actually resolved the issue by requesting (and receiving) the latest official build (compatible with the theme) from WPBakery. I’ve heard nothing from Edge on the issue: and the radio silence tells me they’re busy readying a more global response.

The thing is – it’s a plugin that’s listed with all the other plugins. Where, nearly (if not all) the other plugins provide an additional functionality limited in scope. *THIS* plugin is required to edit and build the site itself. It’d be nice if this plugin (and other plugins like it that affect the core capability of utilizing the theme’s features) reside in another list….cuz that update notification was a snake in the grass.

Ultimately it falls on me though for not vetting the update.
