WPbakery plugin update error

I followed the steps mentioned here https://xtemos.com/forums/topic/wpbakery-page-builder-update-version-6-2/ to update the WPbakery plugin on my site. After the update, the frontend editor stopped working, it became grayed out.

Please help.

Hello,

Try to uninstall the plugin and install its latest version via Appearance -> Install plugins.

Kind Regards

I have tried this still not success. Login details have been shared.

We see some error in your WordPress dashboard and it is not related to our theme https://gyazo.com/79bfe76ba832769324b08d491893e0a9
It seems that some core files are corrupted or missed. Try to reinstall everything from scratch including WordPress.

what exactly do you mean by everything? do I just update WordPress? would that be enough?

I have reinstalled wordpress.

Find updated login details

Could you please let me know what else I need to reinstall? I have reinstalled WordPress and all unrelated plugins are deactivated. What else do I need to reinstall?

We don’t see that you reinstalled everything. You have the same version of WordPress and the error still in the console https://gyazo.com/7679808600b09e0e5475d983c68d0afc
Note that this error is not related to our theme and will break the functionality of all JS scripts in the Dashboard.

Please recheck now.
I had initially added code in function.php to defer loading of javascripts. The code worked for me as site speed become a little less slow after adding the code. see the code below;

function defer_parsing_of_js ( $url ) {
if ( FALSE === strpos( $url, '.js' ) ) return $url;
if ( strpos( $url, 'jquery.js' ) ) return $url;
return "$url' defer ";
}
add_filter( 'clean_url', 'defer_parsing_of_js', 11, 1 );

I have removed it now. Please recheck.

It seems that the error is gone. Please, check how everything works now.

Thank you team!
It is fine now.

You are welcome! We are glad that you sorted it out!
