JS Composer ( or WPBakery Visual Composer ) plugin is bundled so you can’t automatically update it like as the free plugins.

Of course you can update it if you purchase it here, it requires a purchase code for updating, but no needed, I always attach their latest version into the theme.

Sometime I’m late for updating JS Composer because I need to make sure it works fine before making an update, if you want to have the latest version, send me your email address via this form.

1. Put this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme activated.

2. (Optional) put this in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS field for styling.

.nav-links{
    color:#fff;
}
.nav-links .previous-post{
    text-align:right;
}
.nav-links .next-post{
    text-align:left;
}

Paste this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php (recommended) if child theme activated:

if( !function_exists( 'marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member' ) ){
    function marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member() {
        if( !is_user_logged_in() ){
            remove_all_actions( 'mediapress_media' );
            remove_all_actions( 'mediapress_media_pagination' );
            add_filter( 'aspect_ratio' , function(){return;});
            add_action( 'mediapress_media' , function(){
                print '<div class="login-required">'.sprintf( __('Please %s to view video','mars'), '<a href="'. wp_login_url( get_permalink( get_the_ID() ) ) .'">'.__('login','mars').'</a>' ).'</div>';
            });
        }
    }
    add_action( 'wp' , 'marstheme_hide_content_for_none_member');
}

Put this code in videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme activated.

Firstly, I recommend you to activate the child theme, so this change won’t be lost when update the theme.

Step 1: Paste this code to the end of videotube/functions.php or videotube-child/functions.php if child theme is active.

Step 2: Paste this CSS to Theme Options->General->Custom CSS field:

Step 3: Save Changes.

Videotube supports automatically updating by using Envato API, you can easy update the theme with one click:

- Step 1: Navigate to Appearance-> Theme Options -> Update section.

- Step 2: Fill your Purchase Code (tips) and Personal Token key.

- Step 3: Save changes.

Now you can update the theme like as the “free” theme on wordpress.org when we release new version.

Note: The personal token key have to allow Download your purchased items and View your purchases of the app creator’s items permissions.

Firstly, backing up your site content before making an update is always recommended.

Download the newest version on your download page at https://themeforest.net/downloads

We have four ways for updating Videotube theme:

1. Extract the videotube.zip file and override the videotube folder onto your hosting at wp-content/themes/ directory by FTP client tool.

2. OR log in to your backend, deactivate and delete the videotube old theme, and reactivate the new file (videotube.zip) that you just downloaded.

3. OR using the Envato Market plugin, the plugin allows you to be able to update all items that you purchased from envato market (themeforest and codecanyon.net are supported), here is an official discussion about this plugin https://forums.envato.com/t/envato-market-wordpress-plugin-beta/21639

4. OR using the built-in update feature.

Question: how about my modification if I update the theme?

- The update will override the newest version to your old version, so, if you modified the theme, these changes will be lost.

- The update won’t lost any settings you made in the Theme Options panel.

Question: How can I keep my modification?

We highly encourage that you activate the child theme which can be found in the purchase package, called “videotube-child.zip”, and you can modify the parent theme via child theme, read more about WordPress child theme here https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes
