# Visual Composer Conflict

 * I am using the WP Bakery Visual Composer Version 4.3.4 (came with the theme) 
   and it conflicts with Version 4.1.3 of your plugin. The button to select the 
   FA shortcode is there, and can be clicked, but the modal window appears only 
   momentarily then disappears after a fraction of a second. Disabling the Visual
   Composer plugin stops this from happening and your plugin then works as expected.
 * Not sure if there is a workaround for this. Would be disappointing if there isnt.
   Not that I am a big fan of Visual Composer but it has a couple of handy features.

 * Thank you for this report. We’ve had a few conflicts with other plugins and have
   had good luck resolving them. I’ll look into this and let you know what I find.
 * Sorry for the late reply.

 * Do you have a working example of the problem that you could grant me access to?
   I’d like to review this issue in an actual environment if I can.

 * Mark,
    Thank you for the access to your site. When I logged in I noticed that
   you’re not running the Font Awesome Shortcodes plugin (the plugin this thread
   is in support of). I’m afraid if you’re not running that plugin I can’t offer
   support via this thread.
 * I really appreciate the access to your site because I was able to find that the
   problem synt4ks was having is caused by both Font Awesome Shortocodes and WP 
   Bakery Visual Composer enqueuing the same Javascript, causing a conflict.
 * To resolve the issue of the Font Awesome Shortcodes plugin modal window disappearing
   on sites with WP Bakery Visual Composer installed
    Add the following to your 
   theme’s functions.php:
 * `wp_dequeue_script( 'vc_bootstrap_js' );`

 * Thanks Michael,
 * Sorry, I stupidly assumed you were the Visual Composer Author, not Font Awesome…
 * I am really struggling to contact them. The WPBakery swont let me register as
   it tells me my Envato item purchase codes are incorrect and for the life of me
   i cannot find another way to contact them. Envato have been no help what so ever.
 * As an experienced developer and having been on my site, any insight into what
   the issue might be? I have a really tight deadline on this site and this is the
   last thing I need.
 * Thanks,
    Mark

 * No problem. I know how frustrating it can be to not get the support you need.
   I’m marking this thread as resolved because the above dequeue function should
   resolve it for other users.
