Advanced Custom Fields in wordpress wont show on dashboard - wordpress

I just installed Advanced Custom Fields on my wordpress site.
However i cant find the edit screen on the dashboard to create new ACFs or edit them.
Anybody know why it isnt showing?
The wordpress is a fresh install of the newest version as of today. Same goes for AFC
Wordpress version: 3.5.1
AFC version: 3.5.8.1

A good start before installing a plugin is to check the compatibility with the WordPress version.
For this go to the plugin page
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/
At the right you can check compatibility:
Requires: 3.0.0 or higher
Compatible up to: 3.5.0
At the bottom right you can also select a WordPress version and a plugin version too see if it works (from users feedback).

The plugin developer is reworking the code so that it complies with WordPress' new terms/privacy.
The plugin code that is in the WordPress repository (aka: if you go to install the plugin through your admin area) DOES NOT work.
But if you go to his github page, you can download the latest working version of the plugin. Upload the .zip file to install the plugin, and that will give you the latest working version.

WPBakery Page Builder Backend Editor Not Working

I have recently set up a new website with WPBakery page builder however the backend editor is not displaying. I only get the options to edit content under the "Visual" or "Text" tabs and there is no option for a block editor (please see screenshot linked # bottom). I have installed the "Classic Editor" plugin which has resolved this for me on other websites however it does not appear to make a difference.
Has anyone else had this issue / found a solution? I am running WPBakery page builder plugin v.6.1 and Wordpress v.5.5.1.
Cheers,
M.
Page Builder Issue
Plugin Not Working After wordpress 5.5 Update
WPbakery / Visual Composer
ISSUE RESOLVED
Just Install

It works 100% fine
ANOTHER SOLUTION
The ultimate solution [fix] for WPBakery Page Builder under WP 5.5
Now, if nothing of the above have worked for you. The only thing left to consider is to actually downgrade your WordPress 5.5 back to say the last stable version which currently in 5.4.2.
There are basically two methods to downgrade the WordPress. You can download the WordPress 5.4.2 distribution package and install over the current, by uploading and extracting the archive on your hosting. But that’s the worst case scenario. So, here is the most simple and hassle-free option:
Download and activate the plugin WP Downgrade.
Go to the plugin settings (Settings -> WP Downgrade) and input the version 5.4.2 and click Save changes.
The page will refresh and suggest you to go to the Dashboard -> Updates. There you need to click on Re-install to version 5.4.2
Done!
Facing the Same issue. WordPress 5.7.2.
I just deactivate the Essential Grid plugin and It's working fine.
I hope it works for you too.
I am on 5.7.2 version, and WPBakery is acting weird, so I disabled my plugins and activated one at a time. I found out that the Essential Grid Plugin is the culprit, I disabled it, and the issue gone. I hope they will fix this soon.
You can go to WK Bakery Page Builder > Role Manager > Post Types and see if it is enabled for the post type you are trying to edit.

New version of WordPress plugin not reflected

I'm new to WordPress. I was trying to upload a new version of my plugin after a bug fix. In trunk/readme.txt, I've mentioned Stable tag: 1.0.1. Also added all the new code to folder tags/1.0.1.
But still, when I visit my plugin's home screen, it shows the version as 1.0.0. Also, in side a WordPress admin page of a site, it says that latest version(1.0.0) of my plugin is installed which is not true. It should be 1.0.1.
Plugin : https://wordpress.org/plugins/negotiabl-woocommerce-extension/
SVN : http://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/negotiabl-woocommerce-extension/
What am I missing out? Please help me crack this
In addition to changing the readme.txt file and tagging, you also need to change the version number in the header of the plugin's main file - plugin.php file in your case.

Wordpress not loading Woocommerce attributes section in product

While I tried to add a new product to My Wordpress Woocommerce site. The Product data -> attributes section shows a loading icon and not allowing to add new Attributes to the page.
Because of this issue I updated the Wordpress and Woocommerce to new version. Also I tried to deactivate some plugin. Nothing works. I installed the following plugins in My Wordpress site.
Booster for WooCommerce
Contact Form 7
Envato WordPress Toolkit
Google Analytics Counter Tracker
Header and Footer Scripts
Jetpack by WordPress.com
Nancy Shortcodes
WPBakery Visual Composer
My Google chrome console showing the following error.
Problem:
The problem happening because of the Visual Composer Plugin.
Solution for The Problem:
The problem can be solved by UN-installing the Visual Composer Plugin and install the latest version of the plugin.
The direct plugin update will not work sometimes, So try to install by removing the folder of the plugin from the WordPress and upload the latest version manually and do the update.
Try to update the plugin with the Ultimate Visual Composer Version 3.16.12. This will solve your problem.

my wordpress page visual compser only loading but not working

enter image description hereI am new to WordPress. For the last 3 days I am trying to fix this problem , but I can't solve it. My WordPress page visual composer is not working it only loads but does not work. Demo
Update your Visual Composer Plugin to the latest version available, its code compatibility issue with your Wordpress version installed.
Basically your WordPress doesn't support the code generated by visual composer all you need to do is head towards plugin section and hit the update button. Secondly always use latest theme and plugin version to pretend yourself from hacking. All the best.

wordpress addthis plugin causing extra chars on home page excerpt

I am using wordpress WordPress 4.1.1 with Hueman Theme Version: 1.5.4. When I installed and configured AddThis for WordPress plugin Version 4.0.7. I started seeing
+-*
in the beginning of every post excerpt on home page of my website. On post page everything seems fine. Not sure what to do. When I disable the plugin it goes of but when I enable it again it comes back. website: fossbytes.com
The plugin is not rendering the share buttons correctly (under the excerpt). For a quick fix install an older version https://wordpress.org/plugins/addthis/developers/
4.0.3 has corrected the issue for me.
