BeTheme - Activate Visual Composer

lzbthmck

"Please activate your copy of Visual Composer" I can't get the theme to activate the Visual Composer. It wants an activation code. I thought this plug in came with the theme. Where will I find this code?

Hi,

purchase codes (license keys) are not included for plugins which are bundled into theme. It’s because of Themeforest license & agreements. This applies to all themes of course. However, there is no need to use this code because the plugins are fully functional without it. If you want, you can read more details about this on Envato forum:

Thanks!

Then why won't it install and keeps asking for a license?

Albert

Really? What message you get during the installation then? Sorry but we really don't get what exactly won't install.

Oh, it finally loaded today. I was trying to load the Hotel Demo and it won't work, but today is a new day. Thanks for your help.

I've got another issue. My demo home page looks like this? What am I missing?

Looks like your server does not support wp_remote_get() function which is a default WP function btw. wp_remote_get() uses loopbacks and this could be the reason why you are unable to import complete pre-made layout. So or you will contact with your admin and ask him if he can remove those limits for you or you need to import demo without paying attention to errors and after that import muffin options manually.

More details about similar issue you can read on http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/12103/wp-remote-get-demo-download-no-header-menu-of-footer-settings where a problem was a little bit different but the solution may work for you as well.

Thanks!

Thanks I will contact my host.

I've another question if you'd be so kind to answer?

On the home page, under the Shadow Mt address there is a string of images. It's a gallery function with a short code. Where do I find information about where that is. I've looked in the documents online and can't figure it out. I need to swap out the demo images for Villas images.

Thanks so much!

This is the error message I get

To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer.

TGMPA v2.6.1

I'm sorry, I don't understand. The Visual Composer is working?

@Izbthmck If it's gallery shortcode, all you need to do is replace current images ID's with the new one. You can find those ID's under Media section when you hover over the each image in the bottom where link to that image would display. For more details about gallery, we suggest to check the following topics:

@JenkNZ Yes, if you want to get auto-updates, you must buy a license directly from author. But if you want to use it for free they way as it has been included into package, please take a look at http://forum.muffingroup.com/betheme/discussion/15314/how-to-update-visual-composer-visual-composer-plugin-update where this has been explained.
