When I use the backend editor, the update-button does not work. There is no response. I have tried de-activating all the other plugins, but it seems to be related to Salient WPBakery Page Builder.
Please update to the Latest Salient Theme Version.
The current version of the theme is v17.3.0 (6/13/25) and the current version of the page builder is v8.4.1 . Salient versions older than v11 won't be compatible with WordPress 5.5.
Please ensure that all caches are thoroughly cleared, as cached files can sometimes prevent JavaScript from executing correctly, which may cause buttons like Update or Edit to become unresponsive.
Additionally, check your browser’s developer console while clicking the Update or Edit buttons. Any JavaScript errors shown there can indicate conflicts or missing files that might be causing the issue. Identifying these errors will help determine whether a plugin or theme script is interfering with Salient’s functionality.
If you find any errors, or if the issue persists after clearing caches, please try conducting a plugin conflict test using the Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin.
Kindly try these steps and share any console errors or results with us for further assistance.

Thats for your reply. Unfortunately this didn't help and now the "edit" icons also don't respond anymore.
Hi there,
Thank you for the feedback.
Just to clarify, are the Salient theme and its associated plugins updated to their latest versions?
