Hi Swami, I am loving this theme. Been looking for a good theme for a while and am so glad I bought this one. It has so much possibilities. Thank you for that!
One question though. For my portfolio items I am using the Horizontal Carousel template. I would like to show the title of the portfolio item so that people see what they are looking at. Is this a setting I have missed or is this not possible at the moment?
Thanks for your reply. Egbert
Hi Egbert,
Thank you very much. I am glad you like the theme 
Are you using the “Portfolio” template or “Gallery” template in your page? Because, if you are using the Portfolio template, the name of item that you set up (in the respective Portfolio Item) will by default be shown in the bottom left corner of each image.
Thanks, Swami
One more question is there a way to turn off the bottom widget area? I’ve seen some of the demo’s without it but I can’t figure out how to remove it.
Yes. There is an option in each page under the ‘Other Layout Options’ metabox to ‘Turn OFF’ the Bottom Widget Area.
Thanks, Swami
Thank you!!!
Hi, I’m considering this theme for a client, but I noticed that some animations don’t look right in IE11: http://bit.ly/1fbXJNY Is this an issue you’re aware of? Would there a way to correct it?
Hi,
Yes we are aware of this as one other buyer has mentioned about it. Our developers are working on the fix and we will patch the update once it is ready in the next few days.
Thanks, Swami
Great, thank you
Hi, I saw there was an update yesterday but the issue still appears on the live demo. Do you know when it will be corrected?
This update was to fix very critical issue with the Instagram module that many of our buyers were facing. We are working on the IE fixes and that will be included in a special update in few weeks.
Thanks, Swami
Hey Guys!! I am 99.9% down with my site, but I am having a hard time changing the color. I have a shop and all the colors are changed BUT the “add to cart” and “proceed to checkout” and “place order” buttons. It’s the default “orange” color and I wanted a pink color. I can not find where to edit this. Thanks in adwance
The option to change the Colors for the Shop Page’s button is given under Oshin Options > Shop Settings. You can have 2 sets of button style for your Primary and Secondary buttons. The primary include Add to Cart, Proceed to Checkout and Place Order, while all other buttons will take styling chosen for Secondary button. Have you changed the colors here?
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami,
Can I please have a copy of this CSS code:
“To hide the Single Page Navigation Bullets from Mobile devices, use the CSS code below in the custom CSS section under Oshin Options > General Settings.”
Also, is there a way to control the colour of mobile navigation symbol? I’ve just updated the theme to 2.1 and the animated black rules don’t work on our home page.
Many thanks, Simon
Hi Simon,
This is the code that you asked for -
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.single-page-nav-wrap{
display: none !important;
}
}
The color of the navigation menu will be the color that you set up under Oshin Options > Typography > Navigation Menu. Can you give me a link to your site so I can check why the color is not taking effect?
Thanks, Swami
Thanks Swami, the site is here:
http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/I’d be very grateful if you’re able to advise on the mobile Nav colour.
Regards, Simon
Actually, if you are going to take a look at the site, it would be good to get the top nav selection working for the ‘about us’ landing page. It should be red when active but doesn’t seem to work at the moment
Hi,
I did check the Navigation menu in your site and the ‘About’ page is highlighted in ‘Red’ while the page is loaded when it is active. I think it does work correctly now.
Regarding the Mobile Menu – When you set ‘Transparent’ header in your page, the mobile menu will take either a light /dark grey shade depending on the Color Scheme that you choose and it seems to work as expected in your site. If you want this changed you can use the Custom CSS code below with the color of your choice.
.be-mobile-menu-icon , .be-mobile-menu-icon::before, .be-mobile-menu-icon::after{ background-color: #000000 !important; }
Thanks, Swami
Many thanks Swami
We’ve worked around those issues so thanks for your advice. I have another problem to do with the loading of the portfolio pages. We’ve added a a red border to the container on the child theme to see what is happening. Have a look at this link:
http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/portfolio/hrg/The right column with the text loads in a certain position but then jumps as soon as you scroll. I can’t find a way to make it behave consistently.
As ever, any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Simon
Hi Simon,
You should try and apply the border to the ’#right-sidebar’ container instead of the ’.fixed-sidebar-content’ element.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami,
We actually don’t want a border at all and only put it on there to understand what is happening and try to fix. We just want to stop the text column from jumping around on load/initial scroll.
Any advice for that?
Thanks, Simon
Simon,
The additional spacing is due to the CSS styling that you have added in the Child theme.
/* Testing portfolio loading issue */
.fixed-sidebar-content { margin-top: 80px !important; }
The jerk should be solved if you remove this.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami,
I’m afraid that makes no difference. Any other ideas?
Thanks, Simon
Swami,
The problem is particularly noticeable as you scroll through the portfolio using the red back/forwards navigation icons. It seems to have extra padding above the text column that jumps to its correct position when you scroll on either side of the page. See screenshots below, drawing you attention to the orange areas…
http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/support/oshin1.png http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/support/oshin2.pngIt looks to us like a scripting issue. Oddly, once you have scrolled and then if you reload/refresh the page it jumps but automatically settles at the correct position.
We’re hoping to go live with the site today so your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks, Simon
Swami,
We’ve been trying alternatives. It seems the sticky header is causing the issue. Seems to be a conflict between the sticky header and the right hand fixed container. See 2 x links below. The first link has the sticky header enabled (and has a problem) the second has the sticky header removed (and seems to behave normally)
http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/portfolio/hrg/ http://fourthquarter.co.uk/oshin/portfolio/lekoil/I suppose the question is whether there is a way to keep the sticky header without causing the issue?
Many thanks, Simon
The links above have changed to:
http://fourthquarter.co.uk/portfolio/hrg/ http://fourthquarter.co.uk/portfolio/lekoil/In the Page Builder section where you have added Content for these items, make the Section Top padding as ‘0’ and check if that fixes the issue. If not, send me your URL,wp-admin id and password through the support tab in Themeforest and I will look into this.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami, we’ve tried that but can’t find a solution. Have sent you log in credentials.
Many thanks, Simon
Responded to your email.
Thanks, Swami
Hi, I have done an update on page builder yesterday, and now in my portfolio page only the latest portfolio image is visible, the rest are only evident on hover. is there a new setting i am missing or is it a bug? http://imageneration.co.uk/imageneration-photography-portfolio/
also can not seem to update master slider both in the dashboard and via FTP. Thank you
I am viewing you site now, and all the Portfolio items including the latest items. I am assuming the issue was temporary and is fixed now.
Regarding the Master Slider – we have included the latest version of the Slider with the recent theme update (Oshine 2.1) . You have to delete the version you have and install the new one afresh. What is the error message that you are getting while trying to install the latest version?
Thanks, Swami
Hi, Love this theme! Is there a way to add a background color to a “Special Title” ?
Hi,
You do not have an option to add Background Color to the Module itself. However, you can add the color to the Column that is encompassing the Special Title. You should be adding the Title separately, in a Column, and apply the Background Color to the Column in the Column’s setting panel. You can also add some padding to the Column to create some space around the module.
Thanks, Swami
Is it possible to upload a pdf file like a resume so that employers can download it?
You can upload a PDF file to the media library and add it in your page. However there is no direct option to have the file downloaded. You can probably use a Button, and link it to the source path of the ‘file’ and browser will automatically open it which can be then downloaded.
Thanks, Swami
Thank you for your response Swami!
hello. I noticed there is a way to disable sections on mobile. is there a way to disable the header hero, or revolution slider on mobile? this would be a great feature as I noticed it doesn’t load as well or look as nice on mobile.
There isn’t a feature for this in the theme. But you can do so, with the help of a Custom CSS code. Give me a link to your site, specifying in which page you want the Hero Section hidden, and i will give you the code.
Thanks, Swami
Hi There
I recently purchased the theme and am in the very early stages of setting up my site but keep running into simple issues – e.g. Under ‘Colours’, each option has only the check box for transparent but no way to add custom colour, also I can’t upload my logo, ‘upload’ is not a proper link and if clicked on it takes me to a page which won’t scroll at all and I can’t select anything to upload from that page anyway. And although I have created a menu and set its location it still will not pick it up and change it on the front end.
Any thoughts on these? Thanks! Becky
Hi Becky,
The issues that you are facing if pretty new to us. None of the buyers have faced issues with uploading Logo so far. It is likely that one of the 3rd party plugin that you might be having in your site is not compatible with the Redux Framework that we are using for the Options Panel.
Regarding the ‘Colors’ tab, you have option to pick the color from the palette apart from choosing the opacity. Are you not able to see the color picker? Again , this should be due the incompatibility between plugins and Redux. Please disable any plugin and check if the issue is fixed.
If this does not help, send me your URL, wp-admin id and password via the Private Message from in the support Tab in Themeforest and i will look into this.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami Thanks for your response.
I tried disabling all plugins but it still shows up the same. I don’t see any colour picker. No luck with logo upload either. Site is http://picnicceramics.co.za, and login details are picnicceramics@gmail.com and Rebecca21CurtisWOR
Really appreciate your help on this!
Sorry username is just picnicce
Hi,
This most likely looks like a memory issue. I tried to verify this by installing a plugin that would let me see the Host PHP Info. However this information is blocked by your hosting company and I could not check. Please contact them and confirm if you have the below limits on your php.ini file. These are the basic system requirements for the theme to function properly. Let me know if the issue persists even after upgrading the limits.
max_execution_time = 300 max_input_time = 120 max_input_vars = 2000 memory_limit = 128M post_max_size = 10M upload_max_filesize = 10M
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami Thanks very much for looking into it! I have asked my host and hopefully that will solve the problem!
Appreciate you time and help! Becky
Hi Swami
Ok I have got confirmation from my host that the server is above those limits.
Is it likely to help to uninstall and reinstall the theme?
I deleted the theme and reinstalled but no change from before. I had to upload the theme via FTP, as it did not allow me to do it direct throughout wordpress, both the first and second time… could this be the issue?
Becky,
Send me your cPanel and FTP details my email ID. This has definitely got something to do with the hosting provider. However, i am not sure what it is. Let me try and install the theme in your server once again and try to find the cause.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami I sent you those details via the email box on the ‘brandexponents’ profile page a few days ago but have not heard back yet so just wanted to check if you had received them?
Thanks Becky
Fixed the issue in your site and responded to your email.
Thanks, Swami
Hello,
I have problem with portfolio grid. I set up the page and everything worked fine. Today I came and I found out that my images don’t show in portfolio grid. If I scroll around the page with mouse it shows the names of galleries. If I click on some it again doesn’t show images inside the gallery. But they are there. If i click on the blank squares. The images pop up. The feature images are set up. I dont know where is the problem. How can I fix it?

Hi,
Can you check if the Caching Option is Turned ON ? You have this option under Oshin Options > General Settings. If yes, turn this OFF and save your settings.
If this is not the case – check if you have enabled any caching Plugin in your site. If so, Delete/Purge/Flush the cache, and disable the plugin and then try saving the options.
Thanks, Swami
Hi again Superman Swami, two minor but important fixes is needed …
In the the “Other Layout Options” I fancy the: “Scroll To Sections” = UNchecked! “Single page version” = Checked
=> that is both having the navigation bullets and the scroll bar at the same time…
However, when “Scroll To Sections” is unchecked, – there is no selected/highlighted bullet … like there is when it’s checked (also the style looks diffrent) ... would be nice if the bullet is still active dependent on the section that is most active…
Lastly I want the bullets to go away on mobile units (it just takes up screen space unnecessarily …
Is these things possible to fix for those two things? :/
Hi,
Tracking the ‘section’ that is currently active is not possible, if the Scroll To Section is disabled. This is the reason why the bullets are not highlighted in this option. We will look for a workaround and if this can be fixed, we will patch it in the subsequent updates.
To hide the Single Page Navigation Bullets from Mobile devices, use the CSS code below in the custom CSS section under Oshin Options > General Settings.
Thanks, Swami
Alright 
hope you find a workaround… a decent alternative would be a scroll bar on the Scroll To Section. Not so ppl can scroll freely like when it’s disabled, but simply so they can scrool to the sections..
The problem I have with the navigation at the moment is that my visitors don’t know how to scroll down the page when using Scrool to Section … because there is no scroll bar, and the sections seams like the section is complete / the entire page …
Using scroolbar only, is to boring a navigation option … every website out there has that …
Hope you keep looking for navigation options that solves these two problems; and that you integrate them if you find any good solutions.
I think you forgot to paste the css code 
thnx for your anwer anyway, you are still a superman!!!
This is the Code that i missed to paste -
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.single-page-nav-wrap{
display: none !important;
}
}
Like i said, I will look into the possibility.
Thanks, Swami
Thnx for the code Swami, and even bigger thnx for looking into improving the navigation … that’s why you are a Superman!!!
Thank you I am glad it worked for you!
Superman Swami … look like you nailed it? just wanted to say thnx!
Yes , we have included this in the latest update.
Thanks, Swami
Hi my site is way under construction but I’m having 2 problems, first the nav bar is off, it won’t go to the top right of the page like it is supposed to. I’ve tried different logos, to make sure that wasn’t it and reloaded the menu and tried different versions of the menu but it won’t budge help please. www.oliviaparriott.com Second how do you change the “filterable portfolio” text or “categories” from the list that is default set, I can’t seem to find a way to create my own categories but there must be. Help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
I figured out the Menu thing! But I still don’t know why my nav menu is off, I can’t get it to go to the top of the page the way it does in all of the demos, its driving me nuts!
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
Hi,
I am viewing your site now, and the navigation menu is placed in the right top corner according to the header style that you have chosen. I am assuming you figured out this as well. You had to set your Header Style to a valid value under Oshin Options > Header Settings > Top Header Layout.
Thanks, Swami
Thank you, the problem is it isn’t at the top of the page, the very top its down a bit which I think looks weird. In the version I chose it is at the very top. I have the right header chosen and top header layout I’ve checked it in chrome and Safari just to be sure.
The Navigation menu is designed to be aligned vertically Middle to the Logo + the Padding you set for the Logo. One option you have is to ‘0’ the Logo Padding under Oshin Options > Top Header Settings. This way the resultant height of the logo will reduce and the Menu will move up, however not totally towards to top.
Thanks, Swami
ok thank you!
Is there a code snippet I could use that changes the size of the featured image size on the single post page? My images are not very large so they look awful when stretched to full page or half page (if using single post sidebar)
I saw code that hides the featured image on the single blog page, so I’m hoping there is a fix for making it display smaller. Again, I’d like the featured image to be displayed but in it’s uploaded/original size and not be stretched to fit
Thank you
Hi Johna,
This issue has been fixed in the latest release of the theme. Kindly update the theme & the BE page builder plugin to version 2.1 to resolve the problem.
Thanks, Swami
Oh I am sorry I thought you were talking about images inside the post content area. We haven’t changed the featured image size in the update, its designed to occupy the entire width, thats when it will look good, so you will have to use a custom css snippet.
.post-thumb img { width: auto !important }
Paste it the custom css setting under the “General” section of the options panel. Ensure Options panel cache is NOT turned on.
Thanks, Swami
That seems to work!! Though the full screen images make a great impact it just wasn’t practical for my needs and didn’t suit my content. Thank you so much, Swami!!
Swami, The featured mages on my main blog page come out all different sizes, making the blog list look messy. Is there a way to have them all scaled to a certain dimension? Other blogs I’ve used generate a thumbnail or shrink/ crop for a consistent look. I’d like to have that here.
I have used 2 code snippets provided to me to fix my signal page blog images so far. 1) stops the featured image from posting full screen 2) Fixes the bug that stretched the images inserted into the blog itself. Are these creating the problem? Is there a plugin I can use to get all my thumbnails the same size?
Thank you!
Sorry for yet another question. You can disregard the one above as this is much more urgent! The Mega Menu:
I’m not seeing any mega menu options and the ones I do see I can’t get to work. There is a CSS Class field, a Link Relationship Field, and a Description box. Filling them out has no effect. I also don’t see the usual “mega menu checkbox” to enable the mega menu style options. I also don’t see an area to add icons
Am I missing something? Skipping a step or a setting I need to check elsewhere to get these functional? Is the theme compatible with these mega menu customization options? If not is there a mega menu plugin (free or premium) that is compatible with the theme. It is vital i have more style options!
Thank You Swami!
Hi Johna,
The instructions on how to set up the Mega Menu is given in this section of the documentation. Have you followed the instructions here – http://brandexponents.com/oshin/documentation/#megamenu ? Let me know if you are stuck even after following the instructions here.
Thanks, Swami
Hi, I am getting the ‘unable to display a Google Maps element.’ error. I saw in the comments that a couple of months ago you had suggested a few people to update the BE Page Builder, but there is currently no update option. It shows that I have version 1.0. If I tick the box beside BE Page Builder and use the update in the dropdown list at the bottom of the plugins page it tells me that I have the latest option… when I clearly don’t
How else can I update it to get rid of the error?
Thank you,
Alex
Hi Alex,
Please download the entire theme package from the downloads section of your theme forest account and then update both the theme and the BE Page Builder plugin manually using the zip files provided in the package. Since you are using version 1.0 of the plugin, you will not have the provision to update it with one click since that option was added only in a later version. However after this upgrade, you just need to update your purchase code in the backend and subsequently you will be able to future editions directly from the dashboard.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami,
Sorry to be a pain, i followed your instructions on the update : OPTION 2 If the version of the theme is lower than Oshine 1.9, you will not have the One Click Update feature. To update the theme manually, follow the steps below. Step 1 – Download the latest version of the theme by logging on to your Themeforest account and then navigating to the “Downloads” section. Step 2 – Extract the theme package and unzip the ‘oshine.zip’ file. Connect to your server via FTP and navigate to /wp-content/themes folder of your wordpress installation, replace the existing folder named “oshin” with the unzipped folder.
it says the theme is broken, theme installed but incomplete. themes must have a stylesheet and a template. what do i need to do to rectify this? i did also back up options panel
thanks
Hi,
I think you uploaded the entire theme package instead of just the folder named “Oshin” which would have been available after extracting oshine.zip , please remove what ever folder you uploaded and then try this alternative method.
Install the following plugin. https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades/ and then proceed to install the new update ( Appearances -> Themes -> Add New -> Oshine.zip ) as though you are installing a new theme. You DON’T have to delete the existing theme. The plugin will take care of it for you.

Hello!
Great theme. A couple of pre-buy questions:
1. Can the full width sections demo have a video background slide / section? I mean easily modified by me for my needs / website.
2. The same demo as above – can the last section have only half a slide and half a complex footer? In the footer I want some links, social icons etc
3. Can the footer be easily ’’widgetised’’?
4. Can a section be made like a grid, let’s say in four parts, so on lower resolutions the sub-sections can be viewed one after the other?
Thanks
And last question…
5. Can the fullwidth video background have a pause button (for youtube videos)?
And last question…
5. Can the fullwidth video background have a pause button (for youtube videos)?
Hi,
I am glad you like the theme. Please find below answers to your questions.
1. Yes it is possible to have self hosted background videos or have a normal embedded youtube / vimeo videos occupying the entire section. It is not possible to have youbube / vimeo videos playing in the background though thus not possible to have pause button unless you are using the embedded version.
2. No it is not possible to have sections, you can basically have two rows in the section, one with your content and other with the social media icons
3. Footers & Widget areas cannot be used with this full screen scroll to section layout. It is possible to use them in any other layout / demo.
4. Though it is possible to use aPortfolio grid in this layout, if you use one you will run the risk of it getting hidden from the viewport if the number of portfolio items you have cannot be accommodated within the screen’s height. So I would recommend having a separate page for your portfolio items. Alternatively I would recommend you to use Full Screen Sections without the “Scroll to Sections” feature. Basically you will not move from one section to another just with a single scroll like a slider. This way, the webpage with scroll normally and certain sections can be full screen and certain sections like portfolio can occupy as much height as required. You can still have the dots on the right & menu links which when clicked will take a user directly to a particular section. This is what will probably be the best solution given your needs. The v13 demo is primarily for users who want something like a landing page or for other needs with limited content so that it will work well across all screen sizes & devices.
5. Like i mentioned in the first point, it is not possible to have a pause button for background videos.
Thanks, Swami
