Thanks Ross – have already started that path. Though I have to say I started with the native environment a while back. In theory I would love to make it work, I found it a little too challenging with my limited coding skills. I love the drag-n-drop since it allows me to use my design skills without sweating over the coding.

Thanks so much. I installed firebug, which looks awesome if you’re not a coding dweeb like me. I’ll go ahead and post the link, but please don’t judge. It’s awful.

Here’s what I’ve narrowed it down to:
I can’t activate these two plugins at the same time: Visual Composer Addons & wp-mlm. The site just runs and locks me out of my admin panel until I go into my cp and change out plugin folders. Visual composer (not the addon) and wp-mlm can operate together. However, vc doesn’t pull in the css (with or without the wp-mlm plugin), so the site has no styling. I’ve tried different (ultimatum) themes, but have the same issue. Also, when VC addon was working, (before the non-styling issue started) the icon manager was being buggy. Oh, and the vs front-end editor won’t load. So clearly it has its issues.

So I’m tempted to start fresh on a new framework that doesn’t use vc. If, however, there is a simple scripting error that would allow me to proceed I would be very pleased. Thanks again for your help!

(To be clear to someone who happens upon this looking for info on visual composer, I think it’s a great product and they do offer support, but I got mine as a component to Ultimatum, which is also a pretty good product but currently not offering anywhere near adequate support).

(currently my only active plugins are visual composer and wp-mlm)
