Hello…
From all the research I’ve done to date, I’m sure that this plugin is great and would be perfect for my clients.
However, I am choosing Not to purchase a license for two reasons:
1) Plugin does not work with Visual Composer
2) The restrictions in your Support Forum are draconian.
For Item #1, that’s a development decision and I can understand if that’s not implemented yet (althought, IMHO, it should be).
For item #2… I actually tried to research if there was a solution for item #1 and came across the following Support Forum thread:
https://eventespresso.com/topic/wpbakery-visual-composer/
However, all comments from EventExpresso staff are HIDDEN unless I become a paid customer of (get this) EE3…! Not EE3 OR EE4 but EE3 ONLY…!
Now, I understand that you don’t want to supply DIRECT support for non-paying customers and that’s perfectly understandable. But come on, people – Support Forums are THE primary way to help developers like myself fully evaluate a product and get up to speed in implementing them for clients.
I was planning to purchase EE4 anyway… so does that mean I can’t get EE3 forum comments because I’m the “wrong” customer…?
Regardless, if the above issues change, I will GLADLY reconsider your product since I was really excited to use it for several 2015 projects.
…Matt…

The EE3 vs EE4 messaging is outdated. Anyone with a valid support license can access any and all information in the forums.

Here’s what our developer said about the Visual Composer plugin:
I’m Event Espresso’s lead developer. I looked at Visual Composer and it requires what they call “Visual Composer Add-ons” in order to work with anything other than standard WP post content. VC Addons are plugins that hook into Visual Composer to inject additional components that can then be added to your pages.
Here’s there example plugin for creating a VC Addon:
https://bitbucket.org/wpbakery/extend-visual-composer-plugin-example/src/23a71f2f485af28930c756dcfe5eb49e20aba02e/vc_extend.php?at=master
We can add this to our list of potential third party integrations, and if there are enough requests for it, then we might take it on. Another option of course is to sponsor the development of a Visual Composer Integration which Josh or Dean can give you more information about.
Hope this helps.

This is my request for you to get WPBakery working with EE4.
I had WPBakery and EE3 working.
I eventually got WPBakery and EE4 working in my dev (PHP 5.5.9-1ubuntu4.4) environment but not my production (PHP 5.3.3 on CentOS) environment.
Love the product, and the forum searching.
