WPBakery Page Builder

Posted in: Newspaper

I’m a bit confused. I updated Newspaper and I think maybe I have to update Visual Composer to tagDiv Composer, but I have WPBakery Page Builder, not Visual Composer. Now I have tagDiv Composer and WPBakery Page Builder. What should I do?

Is WPBakery Page Builder the same Visual Composer?

and also, I have many posts published, should I change one to one of them to be built by TagDiv composer? Is it a one-to-one task? Please, I need help now because I have serious problems now, because I updated the template and no tagDiv Composer (I realized after).

Hello,

VPBakery page builder = Visual composer. They simply changed names in the current version of the plugin.
If you use visual composer on posts, you will not be able to switch to the tagdiv composer as it cannot be used on posts. Visual composer as well was never tested or recommended to be used on posts as mentioned here: https://forum.tagdiv.com/how-to-use-visual-composer
If you already used it on all your posts then stick to visual composer for now as you will have to re-create all the posts to not use VC if you want to switch page builders.

Thank you!

What is your recommendation for to use with posts?

The site has been working very well with WPBakery. Really I have only the homepage as page and all my posts are built with Default site post template Style 3.

I think I don’t use VC for posts.
The post I send in example is built with style 3:

Maybe I have to rectify. The posts are built with Default site post template.
Is the influence of Visual Composer anyway important?

Please your help.

Hello,

You use visual composer on posts Here is the code from the inspector on that post: https://www.screencast.com/t/toQpYPoF
That is why it now behaves like so
If you are not sure if you use vc on posts, simply disable vc and check the post again. If you see shortcodes on your post, then it was created using VC.
In this case you have 2 options
Option 1: disable the tagdiv composer and use vc just as before. (the new tagdiv composer activates automatically on a new theme update so you have to manually disable it)
Option 2: Remove any vc elements from your posts and start using the tagdiv composer and no longer use a page builder to create your posts.

Thank you!

Now I disabled WPBakery and I want to work with TagDiv only to avoid problems in the future. I just realized that by erasing the short codes of VC in each post, the article returns to its structure. What a relief! I think that it is no longer necessary to duplicate each post to do it again.
Thank you so much for your explanation!
