Fix $template.get is not a function in VC when updated WordPress to 4.5

Fix_vc.php

<?php
/*
Find html2element in
Version < 4.8: /wp-content/plugins/js_composer/assets/js/backend/composer-view.js
Version > 4.9: wp-content/plugins/js_composer/assets/js/dist/backend-actions.min.js
*/
html2element: function(html) {
  var attributes = {},
    $template;
  if (_.isString(html)) {
    this.template = _.template(html);
    $template = $(this.template(this.model.toJSON()).trim());
  } else {
    this.template = html;
    $template = html;
  }
  _.each($template.get(0).attributes, function(attr) { // **errors on this line**
    attributes[attr.name] = attr.value;
  });
  this.$el.attr(attributes).html($template.html());
  this.setContent();
  this.renderContent();
},

/*
Then replace to function
*/
html2element: function(html) {
    var $template, attributes = {},
        template = html;
    $template = $(template(this.model.toJSON()).trim()), _.each($template.get(0).attributes, function(attr) {
        attributes[attr.name] = attr.value
    }), this.$el.attr(attributes).html($template.html()), this.setContent(), this.renderContent()
},

This fixed it for me, thanks

This fixed it for me too, thanks. Good job!

Thanks! Nice job!

worked, thanks!
WP 4.9.5
VC 4.7.4

Works. Only needed to change render function from @amritoshpandey. Original html2element function did not need to be changed.

Noticed that code was not being passed into the html2element function, but did exist in the function calling it (render)

The following code has completely corrected my problems, I can load the page, add, clone, remove, etc

render: function () { var $shortcode_template_el = $( '#vc_shortcode-template-' + this.model.get( 'shortcode' ) ); if ( $shortcode_template_el.is( 'script' ) ) { var newHtmlCode = _.template( $shortcode_template_el.html(), this.model.toJSON(), vc.templateOptions.default ); if(!_.isString(newHtmlCode)){ newHtmlCode = $shortcode_template_el.html(); } this.html2element( newHtmlCode ); } else { var params = this.model.get( 'params' ); $.ajax( { type: 'POST', url: window.ajaxurl, data: { action: 'wpb_get_element_backend_html', data_element: this.model.get( 'shortcode' ), data_width: _.isUndefined( params.width ) ? '1/1' : params.width, _vcnonce: window.vcAdminNonce }, dataType: 'html', context: this } ).done( function ( html ) { this.html2element( html ); } ); } this.model.view = this; this.$controls_buttons = this.$el.find( '.vc_controls > :first' ); return this; },

It works, thank @amritoshpandey

This was really helpful...replacing htmlelement worked for me
