I’m experiencing a conflict between these two plugins when activated on mu WP site.
First problem I find is when I want to add/edit a post. With both plugins activated the Post page does not load properly and I’m unable to edit without deactivating Rev Slider. It appears that VC just doesn’t load properly in post page when you want to edit/create. When I deactivate Rev Slider, VC loads fine and operates as it should.
Second problem is when I’m creating/editing a slide in Rev Slider, the plugin editor loads but I’m unable to then do anything (ie – I click on a button, say type of slider and nothing happens – this happens with everything). If I deactivate Visual Composer, Rev Slider works as it should.
Both Rev Slider and VC are updated to latest versions. I’m running WP 4.7. I was experiencing this problem in Newspaper v7.5 and thought updating to v7.6 this morning would solve the problem but it hasn’t and both problems are still occurring.
At a loss to work out why this is happening and would really appreciate your support. Thanks
Have you checked with the two plugin companies to see about conflicts ?
Check their support forums for tips on getting plugins to work with each other when there might be some oddball conflict.
i also find clearing cache, resaving permalinks, and clearing transients with wp-optimize helps …
oh, and not using child themes!
Also note some stuff does not seem to work very well in multi-user setups, which is fault of the plugins most often.
Q – Check their support forums for tips on getting plugins to work with each other when there might be some oddball conflict.
A – Well I’m just going to get bounced around like that. Both plugins are standard in the theme and I doubt they would be there if there was a conflict so more relevant to get assistance here.
Q – i also find clearing cache, resaving permalinks, and clearing transients with wp-optimize helps
A – Yep, done that
Q – oh, and not using child themes!
A – Why? I did think of that and the problem exists whether main theme is activated or child is.
Q – Also note some stuff does not seem to work very well in multi-user setups, which is fault of the plugins most often.
A – Once again, both plugins are part and parcel of the theme. If it was a non-related plugin, I would be talking to the plugin creator first or simply delete it.
Thanks for taking the time to make some suggestions, but I’m no closer to having the problem resolved.
Hello,
This could be a plugin conflict so please disable all plugins except visual composer and revolution slider, clear cache and reset cdn files if you use it. Please also check any custom code you might have added to the theme panel or the theme files. If you use a child theme, please switch to the main theme to make sure it does not affect the proper functionality of the theme.
Then test again with only the 2 plugins active. I tested the theme with both pluginhs but could not see any conflict.
Here is an example on my end: http://screencast.com/t/p2UCwsu4FU
post settings work as expected: http://screencast.com/t/c2IAeI3b
rev slider works as expected: http://screencast.com/t/6B6G3RUy
Thank you!
