    Hi everyone, I have read a lot threads concerning visual composer but did not find the answer.

    I have the childtheme executive pro and activated the slider. The slider grabs the text from another page. I would love to work with a page builder and tried the divi builder. But the thing is, that the slider obviously can not find the text anymore... Now I wonder, if it would work with visual composer or if there is any page builder which the slider is working with.

    Thanks for your help!

    Both Divi and Visual Composer insert shorcodes into your content that they leave behind when you deactivate thm. In essence, they damage your content and leave it dirty. If you want to work with a page builder that doesn't mess up your content, try Beaver Builder. I can't help you with the slider question. I don't use page builders. The code they generate is too bloated.
