  Hello,
  
  from time to time I receive an email from Envato about the Specular theme update. I am currently using v2.3.2 and on Envato I see there is v2.3.3 available for download. Questions:
  
  1) do you have a release note file where to check what’s new in the updated theme version?
  
  2) what’s the best way to update the WPBakery Visual Composer which I think should be updated in each new release of the Theme?
  
  thanks.

  Hello,
  
  You can find the change log in the theme’s profile in Themeforest (check here) or in the theme’s online documentation -> change log (see here)
  
  The best way to update the Visual Composer, if you are using the included version, is to replace the current plugin files with the new ones that came with the theme update. Please read this article to understand better the process:

  Hello Mihaila,
  
  in the latest Theme update this is the Visual Composer included:
  
  /*
  
  Plugin Name: WPBakery Visual Composer
  
  Plugin URI: https://vc.wpbakery.com
  
  Description: Drag and drop page builder for WordPress. Take full control over your WordPress site, build any layout you can imagine – no programming knowledge required.
  
  Version: 5.0.1
  
  Author: Michael M – WPBakery.com
  
  Author URI: https://wpbakery.com
  
  */
  
  Which is not the latest which would be v5.1.1, does that mean you don’t always update the visual composer in each Theme release?
  
  Thanks!

  Hello,
  
  We do update plugins in major theme updates and when an urgent update is needed. The latest version has indeed not included plugins updates. Do you perhaps experience any inconvenience with the current VC version?
  The plugin will be updated in later releases.
  
  Best regards!

  No issues, but since the WP console keeps telling me the Visual Composer is not updated, then I checked in the latest theme release and did not find it. All good, we can close this one.
