this has been so difficult to figure out because it works fine on local development using Mamp. The wordpress-heroku template didn't include a composer.json file so I wasn't sure this would work. I read seriously 50 different ideas of what could be the problem, nothing was working. This is the correct answer for anyone having an issue with visual composer with their theme of choice. mine being the ken theme. Thank you!
