    After updating to Wordpress 4.5 the "Salient Visual Composer" doesn't work correctly. Can't see and edit my page contents. Is it possible to update the regular Visual Composer from the developers page or must I wait to the your modified "Salient Visual Composer" update?

    Same here! Bump.

    UPDATE: OK, I followed instructions for updating to the latest visual composer plugin after upgrading to latest theme and WP version; logged out of the server, logged back in. Now it works...

    Hey Guys, 

    Please be sure to update the Visual Composer plugin to 4.11.2 as it has the WP 4.5 fix. 

    Please see VC update instructions in here: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/5182/

    Thanks

    Yes, it works! After reinstalling the plugin via ftp, the problem is solved!

    Thanx!

    Hey Again,

    1: You need to update the Theme to Version 7.0.8  

    2: Update VC to 4.11.2 as that has the WP 4.5 Page builder not showing in page content area Fix .


     If you've already installed Salient VC 4.9.2 you'll need to delete it and update to 4.11.2 to get some of the fixes, See changelog : http://themenectar.com/changelogs/salient.html .

    Update the theme by following this guide: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/3218/

    Also see Visual Composer update instructions in here: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/5182/


    Best.

    **Update**


    Hey Tahir,

    many thanks for your advice. I followed step 1 - check. But when updating VC a mistake occured.  I followed these steps: https://themenectar.ticksy.com/article/5182/ but even after copying the files there is still VC 4.9.2 installed. When clicking "Update" I get the following notification: "To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer."  When hitting Settings it says, that I don't have the rights (as an admin) to see this site?!

    What am I doing wrong? Can you help?

    Greetings
