Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Visual Edit Lite – Visual Editor for Block Themes

Yes, if it is a block theme: Twenty Twenty-Five and other themes built on templates and patterns work out of the box. With a classic PHP theme the visual editor does not apply, but forms, email delivery, mailing lists, SEO, redirects and llms.txt still work. A theme converted from static HTML works when it declares the clara_ve_theme_contract filter, which every html2wp conversion does.
Open Visual Edit Lite in the admin menu and pick a page. Then click the text, image or link you want to change, and its panel opens beside it. Each save becomes a restore point in the page's history. On a theme converted from static HTML, import the site's content first, as described under Installation.
Yes. Every save is a restore point. The History panel lists the ten most recent saves of the page plus the Original, and restoring any of them writes it back as the live page. The Original, the design exactly as the theme shipped it, is never dropped.
No. Visual Edit Lite has no licence key, no trial period and no locked buttons. The features it does not have are not part of it, so there is nothing in the plugin waiting to be switched on.
No. Editing happens on your own server. The only outside connections are the ones you switch on yourself, such as Google Fonts if you pick one, an email provider if you select one, or Akismet if you enable it. Each one is described in the External services section of the description.
Deactivating keeps everything: your pages keep their edited content, and the front page shows the theme's shipped design until you reactivate. Deleting removes stored secrets and, only if you enable that option first, the plugin's own tables and submissions. Your pages stay.
Yes. Click the form, choose the plugin and one of its forms, and check which of its fields each designed field fills. The design stays as it is; that plugin validates, checks spam, verifies its captcha, sends and records the submission.
Yes, if the theme's pages are raw HTML and it declares the clara_ve_theme_contract filter. The requirements are documented on GitHub: https://github.com/iOSDevSK/visual-edit-lite/tree/main/docs
Forms submit and work without JavaScript. The editor itself is a wp-admin screen and needs JavaScript, like the block editor does.
