I purchased a the bPlus theme for my site and it has been fine. However, since the last wordpress update (which may not be the cause) the Visual Composer plugin no longer works and I am now redirected to download and purchase for $45 a plug in from WPBakery to do the same job.
I thought that I had already purchased what I needed to to build and maintain my site wiht the theme cost but this would not appear to be the case.
Has anyone seen anything similar?
Is there a way around this?
If you bought a theme with VC bundled then the author of the theme needs to release an update to this including the latest plugin version (then you donāt need to buy it esp as buying the plugin standalone does not always work)
I didnāt understand why he/she needed a custom job. It supposed to be working properly without any problem - that was my point. Thereās a āWHYā in front of the sentences but hidden
But thatās the thingā¦ they didnāt at any point mention a custom job. Visual Composer not working or not having a license for Visual Composer pops up in the forums quite often, due to the nature of it being a bundled plugin rather than having been created by the author of the theme. I know very little about Themes and coding and all that jazzā¦ but I knew exactly what the issue was.
But this does explain a few things when it comes to your replies to peopleās threads! I think you may have a mild case of webular feverā¦ a rare illness that makes a person believe that somebody requires assistance with their website (specifically paid assistance), even if theyāve not expressed that in any way shape or form.
If youāve experienced any of the following symptom, I would suggest visiting a physician at your earliest convenienceā¦
Person on the street: Excuse me, do you have the time?
Ki-themes: Do I have the time to provide paid assistance on your website? Sure thing!
Shopkeeper: I canāt break a note that sizeā¦ donāt you have any smaller change?
Ki-themes: You want to make small changes to your website? No worriesā¦ I can provide paid assistance!
Ki-themes: what are you doing under the kitchen counter?
Person: Iāve bought a new microwave and Iām trying to get the plug in.
Ki-themes: Plug-ins?! Why didnāt you sayā¦ I can provide paid assistance.
Sorry for the delay! Well Visual composer is a plug in from WPBakery, and the OP has bought a Wordpress Theme that comes bundled with Visual Composer. So if someone saysā¦
āI am now redirected to download and purchase for $45 a plug in from WPBakery to do the same job.ā
ā¦it stands to reason that they are being directed to purchase the latest version of Visual Composer, as the bundled version of Visual Composer is no longer working since the last Worpress update. I just couldnāt quite get my head around how āpurchasing a $45 plugin from a plugin authorā could give the impression of any kind of custom work going down. But hey-ho!
