You don’t need a license key for this theme.
You may find it useful to peruse the “documentation” for the theme.
See the links on right side of this page “Documentation > Newsmag” for more help.
Specifically, this help doc will answer your questions on licensing:

You cannot “auto update” the version of Visual Composer which is “bundled” with the theme, as it’s a bulk license, not an individual license per user. The only way to update it is to wait for next theme update, which will have the tested/approved bundled/licensed version with it.
I just discovered d probs here… Lack of understanding…. There is a funtion dat is located in settings > visual composer… And there there are 3 toggle pans…. Settings, shortcodes and one other…. The middle one u wuld see a box asking for evanton Api secret code… Evanton user name … And visuall compuer linecen key .. So u can get latest theme update direct to ur blog and dashboard from evanton.. Theme update nt visual compuser update..
Right. You cannot auto-update the “bundled” version of the Visual Composer plugin which comes free with the theme vs spending $20 additional. The bundled version is only updated when the theme itself is updated, and is tested to be compatible with the theme.
1) you don’t need to put in a license key if you use the bundled version of VC that comes with theme
2) you cannot “auto update” the bundled version, as it’s not provided by the folks who make VC. Setting on the Visual Composer plugin can be ignored as they don’t apply in this instance – those settings would only apply if you bought a license to the plugin, so you can simply ignore them. 🙂
Kind of confusing, but this is how all the theme developers who “bundle” a version of VC with the theme do it.
Plus to that you save having to buy a license, and you can be assured that 99% of the time the version included with the theme will actually work.
