Hello Bethlehem creators, we are using your template on our website, but we cannot find the place inside WP to edit the links/buttons on the upper left corner of the home page. Can you direct me which tab or submenu controls these default links of calendar/media/giving?

Dear author, the WPBakery Page Builder component of your theme needs to be reconfigured. The plugin author has made updates that are no longer compatible with your theme. Please help. Thanks!
Hello there,
Thank you for reaching us. Can you please clarify what exactly is not working ? We’ve already released compatible updates about 10 days ago : https://transvelo.github.io/bethlehem/changelog.txt
Have you updated the theme ? Is the non-compatibility happening in the latest version ? Please clarify.
Thanks, Ibrahim
WPBakery Visual Composer needs an updated its has been several months ago asking for updates from version 5.2. needs to be Update to 5.4.7. because version 5.2 is not compatible with WordPress 4.9.5: now.
My Current Theam Bethlehem child version: 1.3.1
I dont have received any new updated.
if there is a new update, please how to do that?
Thank you
Hello there,
Thank you for reaching us. The theme can be updated in 3 ways :
1. Automatically : You can use Envato Market plugin to update the theme automatically. Instructions here : https://ibndawood.com/how-to-update-a-themeforest-wordpress-theme-or-a-codecanyon-wordpress-plugin/
2. Semi-Automatically : Sometimes (1) does not work. You should install this plugin : https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades/ , download the latest installable WP theme zip file from your Themeforest downloads page and then upload it via Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme and upload the zip file. The “easy upgrades” plugin will backup the old theme and install the new one.
3. Manually : You should download the latest installable WP theme from your themeforest downloads page, rename your current theme folder in wp-content/themes folder, unzip the downloaded WP theme from your Themeforest downloads page and upload it to wp-content/themes folder.
Please note that updating a theme will override any custom changes that you make to the parent theme. Hence we recommend using a child theme. A child theme is not meant to be updated and should contain only your custom changes.
Hope this helps. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help.
Thanks, Ibrahim

Hello … Interested in purchasing this theme. However, I notice that it has not been updated in a long while. When can we expect updates for the bundled plugins which are all outdated … especially Visual Composer and the WooCommerce integration.
Hello there,
Thank you for your interest in our theme. You are right about not being updated. Bethlehem has been stable for quite sometime and needs little updating.
However it definitely needs an update with the bundled plugins. We’ll release an update today with the latest plugins.
Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Hello Ibrahim! Thanks for the quick response. My only concern is that those plugins bundled in the theme are updated a lot more frequently than what I have seen in the theme changelog history. I would really like to avoid having to beg for plugin updates. Especially in the case of RevSlider and Visual Composer. Can you assure me that this update issue will not be a major concern moving forward.
Hello again,
I concede that we haven’t been paying enough attention to plugin updates. We are currently working on an update that includes general fixes and compatibility with the latest versions of plugins. We intend to release it as soon as possible.
We will make sure we include plugin updates whenever they are available after testing it against our theme. Thank you for pointing this out for us.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Did I miss the updates? I’ve been waiting four days now.
Hello again,
We’ve already published an update. Ref : https://transvelo.github.io/bethlehem/changelog.txt
Thank you for your patience. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Hello dear. why can’t I activate WPBakery Page Builder? its come with the theme. basically, this plugin is part of the template. I’m seeing this message: Activate WPBakery Page Builder. ask me about the license. please help.
Thank you.
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. Visual Composer is distributed as part of the theme under “In-Stock License” which means you do not need a separate license. However this in-stock license only allows you to use the plugin but not update automatically or activate it. Activation is only required for automatic updates and support access.
We provide support for Visual Composer and whenever a visual composer update is available, we will download the latest version test it against our theme and bundle it as a theme update. So updating the theme will get you the latest version of Visual Composer.
Once you had updated your theme, you will have to navigate to Appearance > Plugins > Visual Composer and de-activate and delete the existing version. Once you have deleted all the VIsual Composer files, you will be prompted again to install Visual Composer. This time you can install the latest version from the theme.
The same applies for Slider Revolution too.
Hope this clarifies. Let us know if you have any other questions or need further help with the theme.
Thanks, Ibrahim

Hello there,

Hope this answers your question. Let us know if you have any other questions.
Thanks, Ibrahim
Have you experienced any issues with the theme when users upgrade to Wordpress 4.9?

Thanks, Ibrahim
Demo 2 – Grid and List Blog views are not working.
Hello there,
Thank you for letting us know. I will check and see how to fix this.
Hello there! It appears that the Slider Revolution plug-in is no longer working with the updated theme. Is there a fix coming on that?
Hello there,
Thank you for reaching us. Please tell us what error do you get ? Slider revolution works independent of the theme and I don’t think the theme update has got anything to do with it not working.
Thanks, Ibrahim
I get the internal error every time I try to turn on the Rev Slider since I upgraded. I have to go into the server to turn off the plug-ins before I can regain access to the site.
Internal server error is a generic error. Please look into your log and see what is the actual error. Can you please let me know what that is ?
Hello, the Visual Composer is now version 5.4.2 – the Bethlehem Wordpress theme has version 5.2. How can I update my Visual Composer? Thank you!
Hello there,
Thank you for purchasing our theme and for reaching us. You can update Visual Composer by updating the theme. We are releasing an update today with latest version of Visual Composer, you can update the theme after that.
Thanks, Ibrahim
