I have installed the latest version Specular and the latest version of Visual Composer (v5.2). When I select various templates in Visual Composer from the Library, I find that VC short codes appear in the layout.
I contacted Visual Composer about this, and their answer was:
<div>This code is because the single image and custom heading element at your end is disabled by the theme author using vc_remove_element. You can get in touch with the theme author and get rid of the above code from the theme to get it back.</div>
Sure enough, I see in core/codeless_elements.php nearly 100 vc_remove_element calls, including the one to vc_single_image.
What’s going on here? Are those vc_remove_elements essential? I’d like to have full access to the Visual Composer Template Library. Is this possible?
There isn’t any problem. You have only to active it again by removing the vc_remove_elements. We remove these element because use of our elements. Instead Single Image we use media element.
