VC and WooCommerce just don’t play nicely together lately. Getting loads of errors like this:
PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /xxx/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/classes/shortcodes/shortcodes.php on line 474
PHP Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /xxx/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/classes/shortcodes/shortcodes.php on line 1005
All plugins are up to date.
Hi, please make sure you are using latest version of VC and also latest version of Woo Commerce – everything should be ok. If there are some problems please share them via support at support.wpbakery.com along with site credentials and our support team will take a look at it.

I used to rave about VC.. but lately I’ve experience issues of actually losing content.. and having to totally recreate pages because of it.. not sure where this humongous factory is going but maybe it’s trying to achieve too much and is becoming a tired work horse.

Issue is very complicated to describe.. off the top of your head, what could make a page lose content upon save? I copy from classic mode on a page of a backup site that is ok.. into the page that messes up, and also into a new page to see if the page itself has issues, I switch to Backend Editor mode.. everything is there, I save.. shabam.. half of my sh*t is gone.. I look at the Classic mode again, half of of the content is missing… How can that even happen ?!
Can a page made with previous versions and since many versions ago.. start having incompatibility issues with newer versions of just by virtue of being “outdated” if so we would need to rebuild them from scratch.. what a nightmare..
IMPORTANT, I NEED AN ANSWER ON THIS ONE.. Or maybe some VC plugins are messing things up.. do the VC component bought form other people go through a thorough approval funnel with you guys or can anyone pretty much design any VC extension they want? In which case it would be good to know which are approved and tested to be conform by you.. only those you show yon your site ?
Figured out my issue.. we were running php 5.6 on our brand new server and reverted to 5.5 (my host gives us the possibility to switch back and forth easily by clicking a button) and now I can save without losing stuff. Go figure.
Hi,
Is it possible with blog grid for example, to only shows the logged in user’s posts ?
For example if I Have 10 different authors, that each one can see is own posts ?
Thanks, have a Nice Day =)
Hi, currently there is no such role access controls so you will need to look for additional plugin which in combination with VC can offer such functionality.

Hi, it seems the visual composer plugin is adding extra paragraph and div closing tags. It also closes the div before it closes the paragraph. If I turn your plugin of the extra tags are gone. Please help.

Hi, I am a great fan of VC and now trying to get it to work with PODS.io, custom post types. Although I have downloaded the latest version of VC, I won’t work. Not with the Grid Elements, not with the Post Types Grid. It doesn’t recognize any field or taxonomie. Is there any update on if and when it will work with PODS?
Thank in advance!
Hi, currently we haven’t worked on compatibility with PODS but I will forward this one to our devs to take a look. Also you can inform PODS about compatibility issue as well so maybe they can also take a look at the problem on their side as well.

Hi, Quick question, I want to change the container class of the new elements I am making, but I don’t want to make that change in the default vc elements, or add a new class, or remove the container all together, but only on my elements, not the default ones.
Hi, where do you want to change the class name? Could you please open support ticket at support.wpbakery.com and provide more information so one of our devs could guide you through the process.

Sure, I’ll do that.
I’m using visual composer 4.4 and implemented Call to Action button 2, however when I inserted url, the url is undefined.
How to fix that ?
Thanks
Hi, it seems you are using outdated version of VC – please make sure to update up to the latest, as this was the conflict between older VC and latest WP which has been already solved.

Hi, Fantastic plugin. Just a question when trying to build developer shortcodes. Is it possible to extend the built-in “VC_Tabs” shortcode to use as a base for my own shortcodes.
EG. I would like to build a “testimonial” slider shortcode. I would like to use the tabbed interface that the tabs shortcode has in the backend editor.
I have read the VC plugin code and specifically the vc_map function for the “vc_tabs”. In my code I have basically duplicated the tabs PHP code and CSS styles in my own “vc_extend” files. I changed the name of the shortcode from “vc_tab” to “testimonial” and this is when issues started to happen.
Here is the code:
$tab_id_1 = time().'-1-'.rand(0, 100);
$tab_id_2 = time().'-2-'.rand(0, 100);
vc_map( array(
'name' => __('Testimonial Slider', 'evolution'),
'base' => 'testimonial_slider',
'show_settings_on_create' => false,
'is_container' => true,
'icon' => 'icon-wpb-testimonial-slider',
'category' => __('Evolution Elements', 'evolution'),
'description' => __('An appealing testmonial slider.', 'evolution'),
'params' => array(
array(
'type' => 'textfield',
'heading' => __('Auto rotate', 'evolution'),
'param_name' => 'autorotate',
'value' => '',
'description' => __('If you would like this to autorotate, enter the rotation speed in miliseconds here. i.e 5000', 'evolution')
),
array(
'type' => 'checkbox',
'class' => '',
'heading' => __('Disable Height Animation', 'evolution'),
'value' => array(__('Yes', 'evolution') => 'true'),
'param_name' => 'disable_height_animation',
'description' => __('Your testimonial slider will animate the height of itself to match the height of the testimonial being shown - this will remove that and simply set the height equal to the tallest testimonial to allow your content below to remain stagnant instead of moving up/down', 'evolution')
)
),
'custom_markup' => '
<div class="wpb_tabs_holder wpb_holder vc_container_for_children">
<ul class="tabs_controls">
</ul>
%content%
</div>'
,
'default_content' => '
[testimonial title="'.__('Testimonial', 'evolution').'" tab_id="'.$tab_id_1.'"] Click the edit button to add your testimonial. [/testimonial]
[testimonial title="'.__('Testimonial', 'evolution').'" tab_id="'.$tab_id_2.'"] Click the edit button to add your testimonial. [/testimonial]
',
'js_view' => 'VcTabsView'
));
class WPBakeryShortCode_Testimonial extends WPBakeryShortCode {
public function customAdminBlockParams() {
return ' id="tab-'.$this->atts['id'] .'"';
}
}
vc_map( array(
'name' => __('Testimonial', 'evolution'),
'base' => 'testimonial',
'allowed_container_element' => 'vc_row',
'is_container' => true,
'content_element' => false,
'params' => array(
array(
'type' => 'textfield',
'heading' => __('Name', 'evolution'),
'param_name' => 'name',
'admin_label' => true,
'description' => __('The testimonial source', 'evolution')
),
array(
'type' => 'textarea',
'heading' => __('Quote', 'evolution'),
'param_name' => 'quote',
'description' => __('The testimonial quote', 'evolution')
),
array(
'type' => 'id',
'heading' => __('Testimonial ID', 'evolution'),
'param_name' => 'id'
),
array(
'type' => 'tab_id',
'heading' => __( 'Tab ID', 'js_composer' ),
'param_name' => "tab_id"
)
),
'js_view' => 'VcTabsView'
));
This is what it is looking like. You can see it is not displaying correctly.
Hi, could you open support ticket at support.wpbakery.com so we could assign one of our devs to take a look at this in more details.

Hello,
could you tell me what are the server technical requirements (maximum execution time, PHP memory limit, etc.).
I know some of themes and plugins are demanding and my server is not a rocket 
Regards, Adam
Hi, Visual Composer requires same server requirements as WordPress itself.

Our website relies heavily on the custom teaser feature that seems to be depreciated since version 4.4, as can be seen here: http://www.thescriptco.com/view-play-script-titles/. Is there anyway that this will be added back into future versions or is there a way to accomplish the same effect in the new version? I cannot find a way the new grids are not very customizable. Please help.
We would create the custom teaser for each page then create our page grids into categories of specific products we needed on specific pages.
Hi, custom teaser was a part of old Post Grid – with the new Post Grid you have even more controls with VC Grid Builder – you can create template for it and use for different grid. Also there are a lot of styles available there out of the box. Please check our kb at kb.wpbakery.com on how to work with Grid Builder: https://wpbakery.atlassian.net/wiki/display/VC/Grid+Builder
There is also an option to modify existing grid templates if you do not want to start building grid item from scratch.

Ok thank you, the problem we have is we do not see “Grid Elements” available on most of our websites using the most recent version of VC. Is there any known issues with this?
Hi, it may be so that theme author disabled Grid Element for some reason – here it is best to contact theme author and ask how to enable this element.

Hi, I would like to overlay an image like this (the ripped striped paper, under the 1,2,3 steps): http://www.britsnaks.uk/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Viz-5.jpg
Currently I have a big white border even though the file is png.
How would I do this? The problem with this plugin is there are too many options. I have tried so many combinations with no joy.
Thanks
Kim
Hi, in image size please define “original” so it will insert initial PNG you have uploaded – this should solve your problem.

Hi, We have purchased this plugin and we’d like to integrate our theme products with your plugin. We created and used [row] shortcode for our theme and we’d like to swap with your [vc_row] shortcode. We removed vc_row with below code
vc_remove_element("vc_row"); and declared a class by class WPBakeryShortCode_Row extends WPBakeryShortCode_VC_Row. But when we remove vc_row element we can not add any shortcode. Please let us know solution. Thanks

In the “news vc element”, there is a way to enter a url instead of a category?
Instead of entering the category of a post / page, I would like to enter a url (I use WP MU) to show the latest articles published in a given blog. The editor normally does not allow it, but maybe I can through html.
Maybe can I replace cats=”11” with another code? (href something…)
Thanks! 
Hi, it seems that “News VC Element” has been added to VC by your theme author or some 3rd party addon as there is no such element in default version of VC. I would recommend contacting theme author to get more information on how to interact with this element.

Hi
Why don’t the standard Wordpress “read more” tags work with VC
Hi, in structure of VC we have opening and closing shortcodes – for rows, columns etc. so it is not possible to open shortcode of row, but does not close it – this is where conflict with “read more” appear. But you can use excerpt here and it is also well handled by our Grid elements.

Hello. I got this Visual Composer plugin bundled with the theme OneHost. I am currently able to edit prices and titles but not descriptions. The plugin is great and of great importance for my daily work. What would be a fix for this? Update and save are not working neither in front nor backend. Petja Warzel
Hi, it seems your are referring to some custom element so I would recommend you talking to your theme author. As for save problem – please make sure if you are using latest version of VC – if not please update.

Hello,
A client of mine has 3 websites where he uses the Visual Composer: 2 websites where VC came with the theme (Multinews) and 1 where he purchased it himself. On one of the websites with Multinews the post grid doesn’t work well: posts do show up for a short time, to disappear immediately and not return. On the selfpurchased website the post grid is working perfect though..
I hope anyone can help us out.
Regards, Marcel
Hi, please make sure that theme VC version is latest one – if not please update. Also I would recommend contacting theme author as this may related to theme somehow.

Hi,
May I know, please, DO you mind If I put Visual composer as RTL in Codecanion market?
Regards,
Hello, reselling Visual Composer is against copyright. In some cases it is allowed to be added to theme, but then it is a part of theme. In the case you describe – Visual Composer is the main product and RTL is just a small feature of it – in such case it is not allowed to be used in such way. Please read Envato Licenses to get familiar with the policy.
