Hello,
My website is hosted on Godaddy’s WordPress hosting account. They are showing me a message that I could click to update plugin. The message shows this:
“Plugin: WPBakery Page Builder, version5.4.7to version5.5.4”I am presently using Specular Version: 2.6.2. Would you recommend that I click in Godaddy to try to update the WPBakery Page Builder?
Thanks

Hi again,
I’m using SpecularVersion: 2.6.2. On Appearance > Themes > Specular > Theme Details, I don’t see anything indicating that there is a new version of specular available.
How do I find out whether or not there is a never version of theme?
Thanks

This screen shot of menu > Envato Market > leads me to conclude there is no update of them “Specular” available. Do you know if Envato Market is working correctly?

Hello,
You already have the latest version of theme (2.6.2) That’s why there is no notification for theme update.
What you have not done, is to update the included plugins after theme udpate. Just go to Plugins and if there is any message indicating that there are plugin updates available, just go with it. Update them all from this panel.
See screenshot of what if would look:

When I click to update pluggins, I get an error message. See screenshot here. I have vague recollections that WpBakery Pagebuilder is only updated when the Specular Theme provides me with updates. Can you refresh my memory.
Is the Layer Slider something that is used to make the top of my homepage ( https://marysadvocates.org/). Is LayerSlider also something that is updated with updates of Specular?
. . . Yikes. When I look at my notes from the weeks when I built our website, I can’t figure out how I made the slider on the homepage. When I edit the home page, I see General Settings > Slider Options> Select Slider type > Codeless Slider. Plus, I see General Settings > Slider Options > Select One of the Created Codeless Slider Option > Home Slider 160811. I would have named a slider with 160811 as part of the name. Because I haven’t thought about this in a couple years, can you give my your opinion. I know that the only page on my website that uses slider is the homepage. Would you agree that I can simply disable the slider pluggin “Layer Slider WP”? Or is the Layer Slider WP something that is needed for “Codeless Slider” to function?

Hello,
1. The WP Bakery Visual Composer is included within the theme. So if you have made the update of the theme you can remove the existent plugin and install the new one. Go into Appearance > Plugin
2. Yes if you have used the Codeless Slider Layerslider can be removed.
Let us know.
Regards!

In my wordpress Version 4.9.8, the only way I can find to get to plug-ins is Dashboard > Pluggins. There is no option under Appearance for Plugin.
When I click the button to update the plugin “WP Bakery Visual Composer” I get the error. I showed you screen shot of that error. The link in wordpress takes me to this site . . .
Can I update WPBakery Page Builder if I have purchased it in a theme?
. . . that shows I need to purchase my own license or get update from you.WPBakery Page Builder in Theme VS. Separate License
There’s a difference between getting WPBakery Page Builder directly from us or in a theme. If you purchased from us, this means that you own license and you can access our ticket system and get direct and free updates (instant). If you got WPB in a theme, that means that theme author has a license and only he/she can download latest versions of WPB and include it in the theme. You as a theme user may use WPBakery Page Builder free of charge while you use the theme that came with WPB (because you have a license for that theme). -
