[v1.8.0 Note] Changes in theme's custom code for Visual Composer

Since the theme v1.8.0, most custom code for overriding Visual Composer's elements are deprecated. A little drawback is that it might affect some of previous elements that you are using in your theme. But it will be greater in a long run for supporting plugin's stability and its powerful features.

Some affected elements are:

  • Button
    • Previous one is deprecated.
    • Any icon that you were putting in the old button will not display.
    • Button shape (square, radius, and round) will not display correctly as it might only display as square shape.
    • Solution: Remove the old one and instead use the new Button element from the list.
  • Single Image
    • "on click" attribute of the element will be reset.
    • Solution: Edit the element and select the attribute again.
    • Note: You can use "border" extra class name for displaying border around image.
  • Image Gallery
    • Caption will not display.
    • You might need to respecify image size.
    • Note: You can use "circle" extra class name for making the gallery grid displaying as circular shape.
  • Call-to-action Box
    • Previous one is deprecated.
    • Text in the old box might disappear.
    • Solution: Remove the old one and instead use the new CTA element from the list.
    • You can enter either "bottom-line", "right-line", "left-line" or "top-line" into the extra class name field of the newer element to display the accent-color line on the box.
    • You can enter "header-has-line" into the extra class name field of the newer element to display the line under the CTA title.
  • Progress Bar
    • Some bar colors might be missing which you can respecify.
  • Tabs
    • Previous one is deprecated. You can use a newer element from the list.
  • Tour
    • Previous one is deprecated. You can use a newer element from the list.
  • Message Box
    • You might have to reselect the color for the box.
