Version 8 is a new version, not an update, so this is always possible with any major update to anything, whether it’s WP, WooCommerce, or themes. You don’t have to update theme if you don’t want to; it’s not mandatory.

The new theme has option of continuing use of Visual Composer page builder for custom home page or pages; or use new light-weight version the TD Composer. If using the TDC, yes, you will need to test and adjust any page using VC, as some modules are carried over but not all – so you would need to change the pages which have any VC element which TDC does not have.

Options
a) don’t upgrade if you have no compelling reason to do so
b) upgrade and use Visual Composer vs TDC — but yes, any custom code added to any core files always has to be moved to new version as new page templates over-ride old ones; this is common with any customization done to any theme
c) setup test area, with clone of site (such as sub-domain, or folder on existing site); switch to TDC, then adjust pages which have broken elements to alternative option from the TDC builder; then once done – copy the clone dbase into the original dbase and replace old theme with the dev theme. Anybody who knows what they are doing as webdev would know how to do all of that.

Hope that helped!

I know it but I want to use only the TD Composer. VISUAL COMPOSER IS DEACTIVATED.
I try to create a NEW PAGE, once I click on “TagDiv Composer”, I can see the elements, but I cannot move any to any page on the right. It shows a white page on the right but no element can be moved there and I get the message “The current page hasn’t been created by Tag Div Composer”.
Yoast SEO is also deactivate

TD composer and visual composer are conflicting. You must choose if you use tag div composer or visual composer. Shame it is no possible both.

Hey Bogdan,

I meant Half Column 1/2 + 1/2 – does it makes sense? Like we used to have in VISUAL COMPOSER. Like here: https://vc.wpbakery.com/video-academy/add-row-column-visual-composer-wordpress/

Thanks

I tried disable all plugins except WPBakery Visual Composer, and clear all custom css, but it doesn’t help
Do you need any other information?

I’m confused… Allow me a simple question:
Can Visual Composer and the new TD Composer exist together or not?

I did read a the guide in the sticky post on this forum and it says that i have to rebuild all my existing pages. I thought: you got to be kidding me! I have no time to rebuild all pages and i don’t want my pages, my links, my seo to change. I’m a conservative guy… well when it comes to my site lay-out that is.

Thanks for answering this.

Hi Chris,

thanks for answering again. Especially as you are not working here and do it on your spare time 😉

AS tagdiv composer can not be used for posts (ONLY pages)
I can not simply switch off visual composer
AND start using tagdiv composer
because I would ruin the look & feel of all of my posts.

Or do I oversee something and tagdiv composer is also useable for posts?

best,
Norman

AGAIN: you cannot use BOTH plugins same time. Period.

If choosing to use TD Composer, you will need to
a) NOT activate VC under plugins panel !
b) adjust any/all existing pages built with VC, as TDC not 1:1 replacement.
c) then, all FUTURE new pages would be built with TDC

Put another way, imagine Visual Composer went out of business and TD made their own version to maintain compatibility with WP moving forward, but not direct replacement as some elements are ‘owned’ by VC as it’s their commercial code.

Or, put another way – say you like some of what VC did in making cool home page layouts, but VC crashes your server, especially if you’re still on PHP 5.4 — this would be suitable replacement for much lighter weight, less resource heavy, version to do “mostly” the same thing. And, it’s also got less code complexity and “bloat” and therefore far less likely to have the security flaws which have popped up once in a while with VC.

(I don’t work here.)

Norman, I had the same issue. I actually love Visual Composer — it’s one reason why I switched from another theme that had its own custom page builder to Newspaper. I loved that Newspaper used VC.
When I recently installed version 8 and activated the Tagdiv Composer my pages and posts were messed up.

When I deactivated it, my site worked fine again. So I can’t see how it’s possible to have both VC and Tagdiv Composer plugins activated without there being problems.

Plus, Tagdiv advised me to switch to their composer because from now on the support will be for that (and not for Newspaper with VC).

I’m not sure what to do. I don’t want to take time to reformat my entire website right now in order to adapt to Tagdiv Composer. But I also don’t want to use a theme with VC if it’s not supported. It’s a conundrum!

Here is the page. https://forum.tagdiv.com/visual-composer-tagdiv-composer-transition/

But you did not answer the most important question. I am operating from Washington DC and I realised that when I try to create a new page using TagDiv Composer, once I click on “add element”, I can see the elements, but I cannot move any to any page on the right. It shows a white page on the right but no element can be moved there. That’s why I had purchased Visual Composer because it was not working. So my question is, does it have to do with where I am operating from. I am also using a Google Chrome browser, does it have to do with the browser? I am also using a Window 10 laptop, does it have to do with the version of the Window I am using? The bottom line is even after watching your video, which is not detailed as it assumed that elements would be moved easily. But they are not moving. Maybe I should mention that once I open to create a new page, I see Back end editor and TagDiv composer, and once I choose TagDiv and proceed to add an element, it is just frozen from there. Your demonstration is gorgeous, but it’s simply not working for many of us.

Important Note: Do not use both page builders on the same page!
