Wolfgang Männel	I am trying to: work in the front end with visual composer of my home page (step 1 image). But VC redirects to a page with blog posts (step 2 image). When deactivating the WPML plugin, everything works fine. URL of (my) website where problem appears: hidden link (password is "mec") I expected to see: the home page in front end mode with visual composer Instead, I got: a page with my blog posts Steps to duplicate the issue: Same issue on another webpage with VC and WMPL. As soon as WPML is deactivated, it works fine. Step_1.jpg Step 2.jpg

You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply like this hidden link The information you will enter is private which means only you and I can see and have access to it. // NOTE : Make sure that you have performed the backup before you let me access the site. Thanks.

Mladen Andrejic	Hello, This problem was forwarded to our compatibility team. They are working with plugin author to find the fix for it. In the meantime you can use this workaround -> https://wpml.org/errata/visual-composer-front-end-editor-reloads-page/ Thanks.

Wolfgang Männel	Thanks Mladen. I think I'll prefer to wait for a fix with the plugin author in order to avoid screwing anything up.. 🙂
