Moving shortcodes to visual composer
Closed

Comments

  • MacroScopeHoldings started the conversation

    I am currently trying to edit this site's pages with visual composer, but the entire site is now built with shortcodes for some reason. 


    Is there any way I can convert these short codes to visual composer blocks and edit normally with visual composer?

    Hey ,

    You need to turn off the Gutenberg Editor in the WPBakery Settings Page and then it would get back to how it was . 

    Could you allow us to log in to your website backend dashboard so we can check on this for you more?. We are gonna need the username and password of admin user as well as the login url.

    I want to mitigate damaging the current site- is there any possibility of accidentally changing the design or functionality by doing this?

    Yes thats possible if the Original Theme code is customized. Try setting up a staging site and then update and check on it .

    Hi Tahir,

    I added the “Easy Theme and Plugin Upgrades” plugin to WordPress and then tried to upload Salient.zip but received this error message saying that the plugin installation failed because "No valid plugins were found.". 

    I followed the steps in your last link  but I think something must still be wrong. 


    Best,

    - The easiest method is to install the Envato Market Plugin on your WP Dashboard after which the Theme can be update in just a few clicks.

    - As regards to the error make sure to upload the salient.zip which has only the Theme code and not the whole download package from Themeforest.
