Hey guys,

Does anyone knows if I can put an image on the footer? I have my footer separated in two columns, one with the Copyrights and for the other one I’d like to have my logo placed.

Is it possible? If so, any directions?

Thanks!

Hi there,

You can add images by adding a widget in Appearance > Widgets and select a Text Widget to add, paste this code in it:

<img title="TITLE" src="IMAGEURL" />

Thank you, worked perfectly.

Glad to hear that :)

Hello nice theme, I have change the URL name and when update does’t work any page of the menu, I don’t know what happened..! Please, see the error: http://www.mukalab.com/wordpress/design-4/furniture-2/?preview=true&preview_id=675&preview_nonce=6a93a0b3e7 Only works the home page: http://www.mukalab.com/wordpress/ Thank you in advance for your help!

Hi there,

This is a WordPress issue so it would be better to get help from someone who knows better how to move a WordPress site, you have to check the permalinks if they’re set up right.

Hi I just purchased your theme and need some help.

Portfolio questions:

1) I have been struggling figuring out the portfolio rows and images sizes. I used the same configurations for the portfolio and each page has a strange layout size result. I am not sure this is a bug or a cache issue but it’s been frustrating and time consuming. Ex: I have 2 portfolio pages with the same layout (full width 1/1) and image with the same size is showing too big or too small.

2) How/where do I change the color of the heart ( like button ) on the portfolio hover thumbnail?

3) Does the heart / like button have any statistics about the clicks some where?

4) How do I change social network and add instagram in portfolio pages? They are showing different icons from the theme options.

5) Where do I translate pagination text for (Next project and previous project) without installing plugin?

6) How do I create the text effect headline like on the home? (Clear thinking at the wrong moment can stifle creativity) ?

7) Is it possible to remove the white circle inside the blog thumbnail? Otherwise how do I insert an icon?

8) Where do I change the color for the main menu and underline? Like in your demo?

Is there any video tutorial to show how to use some of the main features? Or more detail documentation?

Thank you!

Hi pinguina, just write us your website URL please, we don’t need an email for now, we use email only if we need user sensitive informations.

P.S: Please try to post your questions only on one thread, we will answer all the customers questions one by one :)

I just learned that your support is only here that’s why I re-sent it… thinking I was opening a private ticket. Anyway the url is: leticiadamiao.com.br

I have another question about sidebar for the blog. Is it possible to add a sidebar in every single post? I won’t be having great quality images sometimes and the header resolution shows the low res details.

Thanks!

Hi there,

You can’t have a sidebar in the single post, we haven’t included this in the theme options.

Kind Regards,

Hi! I want to buy your theme, but I have several questions 1. Is it possible to add text between images in portfolio columned view. There is option for quotes, but not for text. Is it possible to add it manually in code? 2. Is it possible to somehow show related works at the bottom of single case. For example 4 images. 3. I know that there is no possibility to add sub filters in portfolio view (ex. filter by Year, by Country, by type of Service). If I install plugin for custom taxonomy, will I be able to add it to filters? 4. I want my website to be translated in 3 languages, so I have to use some plugin for that? 5. In single case I want to have clickable Services. Like, In this project we did brand identity and strategy. If I click on strategy I go to portfolio page with filter Strategy selected, is it possible?

p.s. great work ;)

Hi shumylosasha,

1. That is not possible for the moment, but is requested by another user so we have put this to our to-do list, we will try to implement that on our next update :)

2. This seems like a nice suggestion, we will check if we can do something about this in the future updates.

3. We have not tested this.

4. Yep.

5. No that is not possible.

Thank you :)

Quite a few of my portfolio listings have the thumbnail picture that is too small for the name and description…meaning the heart/like icon covers the name and/or description. How do I fix this?

http://c50.32c.myftpupload.com/portfolio/

Hi there,

I am sorry but currently there is not any fix for this because we cannot select only the ones that are shorter on height from the portfolio items.

Kind Regards,
Art

No problem, I just resized my images and that seemed to do the trick. Thank you.

Glad to hear that wfford53!

P.S: Nice portfolio :)

Cheers!

Hello! I’ve updated my theme to Kalium 1.3, now I want to build a shop page on my website (www.blackrockbrewing.com) ... I can’t work out how to set the WooCommerce base pages though! Hopefully you’ll be able to help me.

WC Pages Shop Base: [?] #15889 - Cart: [?] Page does not exist Checkout: [?] Page does not exist My Account:[?] Page does not exist

Hi there,

Have you followed the instructions that appeared when updating the theme? There is a popup that appears and asks you to install all the WooCommerce pages that are needed to make it work, I just want to make sure if you followed these steps so I can have an idea of where you are with the process of setting up.

Kind Regards,
Art

I updated the theme via the Envato Toolkit, and followed all the pop-ups that appeared. One related to installing the woocommerce plugin but I don’t think I had a pop up asking me to install the the woocommerce pages…

Cheers!

Hi there,

We have added the WooCommerce in the latest version of the theme so that is why these popups appeared, if you want to include a shop to your site you can by simply installing this plugin or you can dismiss these messages.

How are the animations being achieved in the Main (simple layout) page?

Hi there,

The animations are achieved via the Visual Composer, each elements has its own delay time and animation time.

Kind Regards,
Art

Is the visual composer included within the Kalium theme and if not where would I have to buy/obtain it from?

Also just to be clear I’m talking about the Train and lorries and the cargo boat etc.? I thought one of them was an embedded movie?

Thanks Steve

Hi Steve,

Of course it is included, included are also the LayerSlider and the Revolution Slider.

The animations you’re talking about are done with Revolution Slider, you can see more demos and tutorials about it here: http://revolution.themepunch.com/

how to increase the text AUTO TYPE?

Hi criativofortaleza,

Can you please write us your site URL here on comments first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

maked.digital

Hi there,

You can increase/decrease the font size of the Auto Type element by adding this to the Custom CSS:

.auto-type-element {
font-size: 40px;
line-height:60px;
}

Kind Regards,
Art

hello again! i am working with mac and os x but a customer told me that the arrow in google maps is not visible (the marker which fades in). he uses internet explorer 11 on windows! how can this problem be solved?

Hi NixonNow,

We just checked this on our main site and that is happening to us too, we will try to fix it on our next theme update :)

Kind Regards,

Hello, I have 2 question 1- is it possible to show the description of the category, when you enter on the category page? 2- My thumbnail pictures don’t have always the same size, can I managed it to have always the same size?

thanks for any help!

Hi

Please make sure on Theme Options > Portfolio Settings you have not set any thumbnail size here:

http://drops.laborator.co/19595

Also try regenerating the thumbnails and see if that will take effect.


Arlind

Hi daxma,

1. That is not supported by the moment.

2. You are using old version of Kalium, please update to the latest version (currently 1.3) and this problem should be fixed :)

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

When you update Kalium, you need to update premium plugins to the latest version too, to do so just go to WP Dashboard > Appearance > Install plugins.

We won’t be able to provide support for outdated versions.

We want you to experience the best we have to offer while keeping your site safe.

Staying updated is the way to do it!

Hi Laborator,

thank you for this nice theme – everything is working the way i like it so far, except a few smaller things:

- Mobile-Menu: Mouseover-Color for menu-items doesnt change to custom colors

- The same for Social Media Icons, especially the round ones

- Embedding Youtube-Playlists doesnt seem work

Ive got a question also: I would like to integrate goodies (e.g. Wallpapers, Playlists) at the bottom of each single Portfolio-Post. A Picture with a Download-Button should do it. How can I do that?

—Art

Hi art-mas,

I just wrote that on our to-do list http://drops.laborator.co/1lbBE :)

—Ylli

OK, thank You!

Glad to hear that :)

Hello

I have just purchased the theme and think it is great, I was wondering though, if it is possible to somehow select a particular portfolio page as the home page..? rather than a static page?

Thank you

Hi there,

I am sorry but this is not possible, it requires some file changes and cannot be done if you don’t have knowledge on programming with WordPress.

There isn’t any option or plugin that would do this easily, I searched for this but without luck.

Kind Regards,
Art

OK, thank you for checking.

You’re welcome!

Hi Laborator. I’ve purchased the theme and am working through my portfolio. I want to use Wordpress’ password protection feature on certain posts/portfolio items, and when i apply a password to published items, it successfully blocks the display and requires a password for any of the post’s text, however it does NOT apply the password protection to the rest of the template and thus anything added to the galleries still shows.

This likely because by default, WordPress password protection doesn’t extend to Custom Fields, and they provide some info on how to extend it, but i’m not sure how to apply this information: https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Password_Protection

Happy to email you directly with URL and some user credentials examples

Hi

This word “This content is password protected” is contained within wordpress translation files, so you can manually translate this by editing this file as described in screenshot:

http://drops.laborator.co/175ZP

Or by translating PO/MO files of wordpress.


Arlind

perfect. found it with that screenshot, thank you for posting that. I hadn’t thought to look in the WP includes.

Hi sixtwenty3dc,

Glad to hear that :)

Hi Labrador, I found the custom CSS to make the little eye move on hover on portfolio items (which I love!). I was just wondering, how do I get the hover colour to automatically select the colour of the featured image? Kind Regards, Natalie

Hi Natalie99,

Glad ti hear that :)

P.S: It would help us a lot if you could rate Kalium on themeforest from your Downloads tab, ( if you don’t know how, just open this link ) :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

No problems I have rated for you!

Hi Natalie99,

Thank you very much for your kind review :)

Hi, I purchased the theme a few days back and has been trying hard to make it work. What I am struggling with is the portfolio thing (there is the whole area where I can define portfolio pages and layouts etc.). But I just don’t understand how to make them visible on the page even I created it using Portfolio template. Do you have any documentation that explains how to make it work? Thank you. Sergey

Hi Sergey

To make portfolio items visible (loop of items) just create a page with “Portfolio Page* template like its shown here:

http://drops.laborator.co/h5hd

Then from that page, you will be able to see portfolio settings:

http://drops.laborator.co/1g52y

And this will create the page which showcase your portfolio item.


Arlind

Hi Arlind, I’ve done it exactly you described. I checked URLs of the portfolio page and portfolio items. I can access individual portfolio items directly. I even can see categories on the portfolio page but I can’t see portfolio items. Thanks, Sergey

Hi Sergey

If you can’t see portfolio items, there is a great chance that you have not set “featured” image for each of portfolio item. Also one customer of us has had this issue and after I’ve set up featured image for portfolio item(s) it was showing in the loop.

I hope this will help you.


Arlind

Hey! First of all great theme – i love it!

I am having some trouble though on this page though: satisphy.com/om-os – When you scroll the sticky header is not doing as it should. There is an error so you can’t scroll all the way to the bottom – it just scrolls back again.

Thanks

Hi AlexanderBach,

When i enter your link this message is appearing.

Not Found

The requested URL /om-os was not found on this server.

Can you please check your site URL again?

P.S I saw that you are using old version of Visual Composer, to update it just go to WP Dashboard > Appearance Install Plugins, and update all the plugins that appear there :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi Laborator, me again, sorry but this template has not started off too smoothly for me:

I have tried to install the Demo content threw “Demo content install” page as instructed but I get the following error for the Word Press Content>

[ErrType: xml-wp-content] Strict Standards: Redefining already defined constructor for class WXR_Parser_Regex in /var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/wordpress-importer/parsers.php on line 408 Strict Standards: Declaration of WP_Import::bump_request_timeout() should be compatible with WP_Importer::bump_request_timeout($val) in /var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/wordpress-importer/wordpress-importer.php on line 28 Warning: file_get_contents(/var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/demo-content/main/content.xml): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/wordpress-importer/parsers.php on line 66 Warning: DOMDocument::loadXML(): Empty string supplied as input in /var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/wordpress-importer/parsers.php on line 66 Warning: gzopen(/var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/demo-content/main/content.xml): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /var/www/isa/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/laborator/laborator-demo-content-importer/wordpress-importer/parsers.php on line 643 Sorry, there has been an error.This does not appear to be a WXR file, missing/invalid WXR version number

Is there any way around this? Maybe uploading this content manually? I also tried replacing your php code “laborator_demo_content_importer.php” found here: http://drops.laborator.co/1h4BJ

I hope you can help.

Thank you.

Hi there

This happens because on some hosting providers there are limitations on PHP configuration and thus theme requirements are not met:

http://documentation.laborator.co/kb/general/recommended-php-configuration-limits/

Please update the theme to the latest version (if you didn’t already) which is v1.3 and try again, but if thats not the problem then I can try to import demo content for you.


Arlind

Hi,

when I add the Heading widget the text is always centered. I cannot find the option to have the text justified to the left being it for the Title or the Content.

I went to the Custom CSS and created a class with some attributes:

.new_style{ color:#c4e6fb; font-family: Verdana; text-align: left; }

In this case only the font-familly is taken into account. Impossible to change the text alignment

So two questions here:

1) Can you tell me how to override the alignment for the Heading widget (for both the Title and Content) -> what to put in custom CSS ?

2) How can I adjust the font size for the main text on all my website p (paragraph tag)

Thanks in advance for reply Best Regards

Pietro

Hi Pietro,

Can you please write us your site URL here on comments first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution

2) Can you please add the code below to Custom CSS

p {
    font-size: 20px !Important;
}

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hey Guys,

I’m experiencing heavy page loading issues on my blog pages (example: http://tellingbeatzz.com/beats-instrumentals ), especially on google chrome but also on firefox.

My featured images are not bigger than 13kb per image.

Any idea how i could solve this?

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

As I know the theme has two types of audio players, have you tried using the other one to see if the problem occurs with it too.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hey Art,

Switching audio player doesn’t seem to have an effect.

What else could i do? Do you have an idea why this only occurs by using Chrome? It works flawless on safari for example.

Thomas

Hi Thomas

The reason why page loading is taking long is because all mp3 items are being loaded instantly via the Videojs.com library, so I have disabled preloading, so try this fix:

1. Download this file:http://drops.laborator.co/1hX7F

2. Replace in kalium/inc/

I hope this will solve your issue. Tell me if it works for you.
