I have thousands of pages on my different websites using WPBakery Page Builder and your Newspaper themes. How do I use both WPBakery Page Builder and tagDiv Composer at the same time while I switch all the necessary pages?
Also I bought plugins for WPBakery Page Builder including the Visual Composer YouTube Channel with Carousel. If I switch to TagDiv Composer, will these plugin work or are there plugins included I can use instead?
Hello,
Sorry but we have not tested any add-ons for WPbakery so we cannot say for sure if they will work or not. They will not work it tagdiv composer that is for sure
If you want to move to our tagdiv composer page builder you should use this guide:

Thank you!
You did not answer my question. In the past I could not have both WPbakery Visual Composer and tagDiv Composer active at the same time because it caused issues. Is this still true? My websites have thousands of pages and many of those pages are built with WPbakery Visual Composer so changing to tagDiv will take a lot of time.
Also, how do I know when you have allowed us to update our WPbakery Visual Composer plugin as the theme updates itself and I am given no notice about updating just the WPbakery Visual Composer plugin.
Hi,
Some elements will still not work properly when both composers are active, some issues were fixed. For example theme provided blocks and grids should work and display the same with both active.
Visual composer specific elements or addons will not work if Visual composer is deactivated. Also they may not display or work properly if both page builders are active. So this may not be easy.
One way to check what will happen in your case is to create a local copy of the website, install and activate the tagDiv composer, then identify whatever problems should present themselves. Better this way than doing it on the live website.
Thanks
Hi Simon, my sites have around 3000 to 6000 pages. Am I going to have issues in the future if I continue using WPBakery Page Builder and not the tagDiv Composer?
Also, I can now update the theme automatically but have no idea when there is an update just for the WPBakery Page Builder plugin. How can we get notified on when there is an update for the WPBakery Page Builder plugin?
For WP Bakery updates, you need to buy a separate license from WP Bakery… buy the license and then you can update.
The theme can be used with WPBakery, no problem about that. We will still provide this page builder in the theme package. Updates for it will be included along theme updates (when available).
Currently the latest version of WPBakery is included in the theme package, version 5.5.2.
For users who purchase the plugin we recommend that they don’t update the plugin until we get a chance to test the new version with the theme, then we will include it in the package
