I have a problem, I would like to have a contact page not in grey but with a color. where can I go to change this kind of options? Thanks
If is possible I woult like to have all site with color.
I want to use this color #584f43 in hover content box for portfolio items and for general Color Scheme too, How can I do this, thank for your time, this is my website for any reference kstudioid.net
Hi,
The theme has a few different elements, I’m not sure which elements are you mentioned, I suggest you to use “Inspect Element” tool on Chrome or “Firebug” on Firefox for finding the element, you would need to understand CSS knowledges, if you aren’t what is it, let me know, I will take a look.
Put this code in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS field for changing the hover content background:
.project-post .hover-box{
background: #584f43;
}
I hope that helps.
Perfect !!! Thank you…
How do you remove the background image from the portfolio pages without removing the featured image on the front page?
Hi,
You could check on “Do not display the background” checkbox In add/edit portfolio screen.
Or put this code in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS field:.single-portfolio .single-page{
background:none;
}
This will hide all portfolio backgrounds.
I hope that helps.
Worked perfectly. Thanks for the quick response! 
FYI: I added the code. Checking the box didn’t do the job previously.
The code will ignore the post setting you did, so if you want to setup the background per portfolio post, you need to move that code.
Hope that make sense.
Hi, I have problem to set center on the Map. I search an address on google maps with coordinates but is wrong. CAn you help me?
Thanks a lot
Hi,
The center purpose is making left align of the Marker, so the Marker isn’t overlap with the contact form.
Your real address (marked by Marker) should be left align (a bit).
Hope that make sense.
The problem is that when I zoom with google maps command the pin move in other coordinate. I can send you two screenshots if you want The address is: Via Padre Raffaele Melis 17 000176 Roma
Can I solve the problem? Thanks a lot Best Regards
Could you share me the site? I will take a look.
Thanks.
I just checked the page but not sure I saw the problem, could you make a screenshot or explain more info?
Thanks.
Hi, the problem is that the pin is wrong… check the screenshot here http://imgur.com/DMkJZlf Thanks a lot
How you can see when I change the zoom the pin is in two different positions
Thanks a lot
so strange, looks like the map isn’t properly working if we added the marker, I tried to find where exactly it is but unfortunately.
This should be solved in next update.
Thanks for your patience.
ok… when you can release the next version? I’m using the theme for my client I would know an idea of the time Thanks a lot
Actually at the moment I’m not sure where exactly it is so not sure how difficult it would be done I’ll look into it though!
Thanks for your patience.
Looking through past comments and discovered this theme doesn’t have the option to update fonts. Has this been changed yet? I attempted to replace the Roboto font in the stylesheet with the font I chose but it seems to continue to pull in the theme’s default font. Can you please provide some direction on how to change this or give an estimate as to when the option will become available?
Thanks!
Hi, it’s currently unavailable, however leave me your email address via this form, I will send the update file.
Thanks.
Looks like the changes I made to the stylesheet were simply delayed and all fonts have been updated. Thanks!
Glad to know you made that.
Thanks.
I´m having problems with the theme. It doesn´t fit responsive when the windows navigator is maximize (in all of them; chrome, mozilla, safari, explorer). You can see it on my url http://klariona.com
Hi,
Could you share me the screenshot? I’m not sure I see the problem.
Thanks.
On the home slide, the images has a text on the bottom (on the green) that appears when you pass the mouse over. Well, when maximaze the windows on my navigator it dosen´t fit properly, can not see all the text, need to scroll down.
Hi,
My apologies for late replying, I forwarded your comment to our awesome person, he might help you out with that.
Thanks.
Hi,
My apologies for late replying, I scaled up the browser to maximum size, but I’m not sure I saw the problem (Image)
Hi,
Please put this code in Theme Options/General/Custom JS field:
try {
jQuery( '.project-post img' ).css('height', jQuery( window ).height() );
} catch (e) {
// TODO: handle exception
}
I hope it works.
It doesn´t works! Still happend the same in some screens. Still not full responsive.
Looks like you did it wrong, I faced the JS error http://puu.sh/kIEEE/a72793831e.jpg
Please make sure you put the code in Theme Options/General/Custom JS field.
Hope it works.
I´ve put the new code, but now the right side of the home slide its cuted on the middle of text and picture.
I see your site is working fine, right? http://puu.sh/kJxEL/fc1aac1186.jpg
Hey guys,
great theme and it looks very nice. But we have some problems with the retina screens. The Logo looks unsharpen on mobile devices.
We have installed the WP Retina 2x Plugin. But it is not effective on our website.
This is our customers website: http://bbbar.de/
Is there a solution for this issue? Maybe with some CSS?
Best regards,
Thorsten & Sebastian
Hi. Little explanation about retina.
Well retina is like the fontawesome that we use no matter the size the quality of icons doesnt change it stays 100% clear. As for logo that we have used it is in png format and it is normal not to display properly because it is an image and it is 72dpi. and retina is .svg file or font file which is vector based and it doesnt get bad after you resize it.
Every website uses png logos i have never seen any website that has retina ready logo on the menu so this is normal.
Hope it helps as an explanation.
Thanks for the purchase and have a great day.
Hello,
I have two questions regarding the contact page with the cobalt theme: http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com/contact-us/.
First, I would prefer to display a single image instead of the gmap or solid grey color. I’ve uploaded the picture on the back end of the correct page, and the “do not display background” box is unchecked. What else can I do?
Second, how can I add text to the respective input boxes for “Your Name,” “Your email,” and “Your message.” Currently all the boxes are blank, so it’s hard for folks to know what information they should enter where. Basically I’d like the element class names to be visible. Thoughts?
Thanks! I appreciate your help. Nathan
Actually, I wound up creating my own form/page. So I’ll use that. Sorry for the unnecessary email!
Nathan,
So have you found the solution?
1. The contact page is static template and it’s made like that, as your question, creating another page with Default or Fullwidth page template is best way.
2. You can use this contact code with placeholder attribute:
<h4>Write us a Message</h4> [text* your-name placeholder "Your name..."] [email* your-email placeholder "Your email..."] [textarea your-message placeholder "Your message..."] [submit "Send"]
I hope that helps.
Thanks for your help! I do have one more question for you, if you don’t mind. I think I just messed up my site.
I’m trying to replace an existing site (http://www.vietnambeachweddings.com/) with the above linked site. I stupidly changed both the Site Address and the Wordpress address of the new site to be the same as the existing (soon-to-be-replaced)’s URL, and now the new site looks funny and I can’t access the back end. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I’m not sure what did you do, however you can put this code in wp-config.php
define('WP_HOME','http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com');
I hope it works.
How can I access the wp-config.php when I can’t log in to the site? This is how the page looks now when I type in the web address under which I’ve been editing it: http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com/.
And when i try to go to wp-admin, I get this: http://vietnambeachweddings.com/wp-login.php?redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fhoian.vietnambeachweddings.com%2Fwp-admin%2F&reauth=1
I’m guessing I need to contact the hosting company
Did you override the sub site to the main site, right?
If so I’m wondering how can the index page display?
You would need to use FTP tool (e.g https://filezilla-project.org) to access wp-config.php file.
And try this
define('WP_HOME','http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://hoian.vietnambeachweddings.com');
or this
define('WP_HOME','http://vietnambeachweddings.com');
define('WP_SITEURL','http://vietnambeachweddings.com');
I hope that helps.
I tried to override it in what I’m sure was an over-simplified way. So it failed. The main site is still up, and now my new/sub site is misbehaving. Not sure why the index page is still displaying, but I guess that’s a good sign. I’ll try the FTP tool now. Thanks.
in order to use the FTP tool, do I need to open it on the computer that I used to create the wordpress site? Or can I use a different computer? If so, what information do I need to access the FTP file from, say, my own lap top and not the office desktop?
Hi, I’m still having major problems. From what I can see, there’s no database for the new site with the host of the old site, so I’m unable to manually change the URLs. In order to run your theme, my client had to be using a web host, right?
Nathan,
Unfortunately I really don’t know what did you do, I’m afraid you would need to find a freelancer for that.
Thanks.
Hi, today I noticed that now your theme requires wpbakery v 4.7, I have v4.3.4 but I can’t upgrade, it tells me
“Downloading package from envato market… To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer.”
And I think that is why I can’t use visual editor from post editor or page editor (if I click on visual it does nothing)
ps: excuse me for my bad english
Hi,
I just released new version (waiting for approval), you will get the notification whenever it get approved (Wpbakery 4.7.2 included and fixed automatically update bundled plugins).
You may wait until it get approved or leave me your email address via this form, I will send the file.
Thanks.
Thanks for your really fast reply! I upgraded it, but I still can’t click on “visual” button, that near the “text button”, maybe old version have broken some files?
Hello,
Is it possible to rearrange the portfolios on the home page? The appear to be laid out in the order I wrote them. But now I’d like to move them around without having to recreate them.
Thanks, Nathan
Worked like a charm! Thank you very much!
How can I remove the author from everything (posts, pages, etc)?
Hi,
Actually the author name is only available on the single post, you can easy put this code in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS to hide it..post-meta .autor{
display:none;
}
I hope that helps.
That took care of it – thank you very much.
I cannot uploaded the update 1.0.6.2 … error message: “Warning: function_exists() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /web/htdocs/www.key-on.net/home/www/wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php on line 1770”
Hi,
The error isn’t belong to the theme, I’m also not sure where did it come.
Simply you can re-download the theme on themeforest and override on the old version.
You also need JS composer 4.7 in purchased zipped file.
Thanks.
Hi Toan! I’m wondering if there’s any way to get vertical images in the image gallery on Portfolio pages? It just sort of makes them bigger and cuts them off. The Visual composer help files aren’t much help. Unless someone else here found something or knows a way. Thanks!
Could you share me the link, I will take a look.
Thanks.
I just checked the link but I’m not sure I understand your mean, could you explain more?
Thanks.
In the slider, the pictures only show up horizontally (landscape). Some of the pictures are vertical (portrait) and are squished and cropped into landscape.
I realize it’s not a theme issue, rather a composer issue. But I can’t find a fix for it anywhere. I was hoping you or others familiar with VC could help.
Thanks!
In a related issue – the image gallery in the portfolio page also looks terrible on mobile. All the photos are squished.
Hi,
I have no idea for how can they work together, You should make all them as horizontally or vertically.
In the slider, the pictures only show up horizontally (landscape). Some of the pictures are vertical (portrait) and are squished and cropped into landscape.Regarding the gallery on mobile, please put this code in Theme Options/General/Custom CSS field:
.flexslider .slides img {
max-width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
I hope that helps.
Thanks so much Toan. That fixed the mobile issue!
I’ll look into a fix for the slider. Perhaps just a different one.
I saw that you have a link to a pastebin snippet of code to add Pinterest to the socials list. I’m wondering how to add that for a site called Houzz.
Many architects and designers use Houzz a lot in the US. It would be useful to not just me
Can I do it myself or do you need to do it somewhere in the parent theme?
Thanks, Sharon
http://www.houzz.com/Sharon,
A good news that is possible, Font-Awesome 4.4 supports Houzz icon class so you can add it:
1. Download FA4.4 here.
2. Un-zip the file and move css and fonts folder in font-awesome-4.4.0/ to cobalt/assets/ directory.
3. Put this code in cobalt/functions.php or cobalt-child/functions.php if child theme activated.
Then you will see Houzz field on the widget.
I hope it works.
Do the files need to go in the child directory as well?
Thank you! The Houzz field is in the widget. But the icon doesn’t show up on the site.
Make sure that you moved css and fonts folder in downloaded file to cobalt/assets/ directory, something like this.
Also have you cleaned the cache/browser history? it worked for me.
Will do. Trying that now!
Those fonts already appear to be in the folders. All except for fontawesome-webfont.woff2. I added that. Cleared the cache. Still not working. Any advice? Thanks Toàn!
I’ve tried a number of ways to do this. I even had to delete and reinstall the theme a couple of times. I uploaded all the .css files to the css folder and all the font files to the font folder. Deleting the files of the same name that were already there. At one point I was able to get the link in there but all the icons were tiny boxes. ¯\(?)/¯.
Looks like you did wrong.
Did you move font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts folder to cobalt/assets/css/ directory, right?
if so you should copy font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts folder to cobalt/assets/ directory.
It will work.
I finally got it!! Moved folder from font-awesome-4.4.0/fonts to cobalt/assets/. Then moved files from font-awesome-4.4.0/css to cobalt/assets/css.
Thanks so much!
Glad to know it works.
Cheers.
Hi, I’m experiencing an issue with the theme on mobile and tablet. When opening the menu on tablet or mobile phone, I can’t seem to scroll down the bottom of the menu without it closing one me. Therefore, I can’t click on any of the page links below the fold because the menu closes when I touch to scroll.
Website address: http://www.malsnee.com
Thanks in advance for your help! Shawn
Shawn,
I check your site on my nokia Windows phone, it’s working fine, I can scroll down and click on any page.
Could you share me the screenshot? I will take a look.
Thanks.
Hi there, I just purchased your Cobalt theme! I was wondering if you could tell me the size at which I should upload my photos for the best results? As you can imagine I have many I need to prepare. My last website did not include any full screen pics or anything larger than 600px. Thanks! Sharon
Sharon,
I think you your image size should be larger than or equal 1024×768px, it’s standard size.
Thanks.
Thank you!!
Solved.
Hi there! I am wondering if this theme has a member login page template? I’d love to have my clients be able to login and see their own job files. Thanks, Sharon
Sharon,
This is just portfolio/blog theme and it works like as you saw the live demo.
Thanks.
Thanks so much for your reply. I’ll try to find a plug in. We love this theme but that’s the only bit it’s missing.
Hi,
I have purchased the theme Cobalt (bravo for it)

Kind regards Fred
Hi,
My apologies, I flagged your comment, please do not share the purchase code and wp-admin info here, except I request.
I will take a look and reply you asap.
Thanks.
Of course.. thank you!
Hi,
I tried to update the free plugin but no luck (Image)
Some reasons your site can’t override the update version from wordpress.org so you can’t update WP core and all free plugins.
Yes for sure the problem is belong to your hosting/server settings so I suggest you to ask your hosting support staff, they may help you out.
I hope that helps.
Also make sure wp-content/ directory can be writable.
Thanks a lot. I am going back to my server provider. Really helpful.
Hello!
Is there a way to show only certain categories that I choose in my blog page?
Hi,
Have you tried the “Pre Query” section in Edit page screen? it has a few options for sorting.
I hope that helps.
