I’m running 6.6.1 and when I go to edit the homepage using Visual Composer, it just spins and spins when I try to load the backend editor view. I can see ‘classic code view’, but I need the visual editor to make my changes. This is what happens:
Is there a fix for this? If I don’t want to update my entire theme to 7.0, can I just take the Visual Composer zipped file and update my current version of Visual Composer? Will that hurt my 6.6.1 theme?
Thanks!
Hello sejpost,
I suppose that you are using the latest version of WordPress 4.5.2 and an older version than 4.11.2 for Visual Composer, right? So, please notice that the latest version of WordPress ‘break’ the Visual Composer and this issue was fixed in 4.11.2. So, if you are using the Newspaper 6.6.1, you should try to update to the latest version of the theme (Newspaper 7.0.1) via FTP because this is the surest method for updating. Also, please notice that each version of the theme has it own version of Visual Composer which are fully compatible with it. If you do not want to make an update to the latest version of it, you will have to downgrade your WordPress and Visual Composer plugin to an older version of them. I suggest you doing a full backup to your data and then you should update your theme to the latest version, according to our documentation here -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-update-the-theme-2/
Hope this helps!
Thanks for your understanding!
