However, In wp-content/plugins/ I did not have a js_composer folder; my js_composer folder is located in wp-content/themes/multicorp/wpbakery. So I overwrote it and the theme and all plugins are up to date, but the visual composer is not showing now when I edit a page. Also notice below Color Settings box, that things are not displaying correctly and some text is now off of the left side of the window.

page edit 2
Also the Visual Composer > General Settings will not let me uncheck Content Types, when I Save Changes, they re-appear checked. Also Select All and Select None do not work, I must check each Enabled Shortcode by hand.

In Visual Composer > About, it looks like there are broken links.

I have tried enabling and disabling in Theme Options, makes no difference.

When it is enabled, I see additional options on the Visual Composer > General Settings:

I just started using this theme and visual composer for the first time and am not sure what to try next to get it working again. Do you have any suggestions?

Thank you.

Visual Composer is not shipped as separate Plugin. Please download the latest version of the theme which has this security patch already included in it. Just update your theme to the latest version, the update the assets plugin to the latest version as well and all will be working as expected.

P.S. The instructions you have followed were for updating the plugin if being used as a stand-alone plugin.

Cheers
