Hello,

Can you tell me how to switch off the on hover underline for text links in the layer slider.

I can’t seem to target this in the CSS.

I looked in the forum and found this for changing the colour globally but it’s not working if I try to target just links in the slider.

.wrapper a:hover, footer.main-footer a:hover { color: red !important; }

.wrapper a:after, footer.main-footer a:after { background: red !important; }

Thanks,

Deborah

Hi guys,

I have asked this question a few times and i have gotten the same response but i am still having an issue. The code is not working. Please read below. I greatly appreciate your time. Thanks again for your help…

I am still trying to figure out the responsive code for my site.

Right now the the code is @media (min-width: 1200px) .container {width: 1170px; }

but i would like it to change to

@media (min-width: 1200px) .container { width: 1800px;}

this is what is looks like at 1170px https://www.dropbox.com/s/a0z79t3qc8u0ivd/1170px.png?dl=0 this is what i want it to look like at 1800px https://www.dropbox.com/s/i1n4kd7k2vpuoqk/1800px.png?dl=0 When I change the code with the inspect tool on chrome it changes. But when I add the changes to the custom css section – responsive – nothing happens. Can you please help! Thanks so much

Hi Laborator,

When are you expecting to update Kalium to WP 4.3? I was planning on going live tomorrow (9/1) but none of my Revolution Sliders are showing up.

Thank you

I’m on 1.5.2 now – Rev sliders still not showing up. I might need you to log in and look around

Never mind – I had to update rev slider in the plugins after updating to 5.1.2 – all fixed

Hi aminoli,

Yep, you just needed to update Revolution Slider with all the plugins.

Glad to hear that the slider is fixed now :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi Kalium,

Nice theme so far, but a couple of key questions:

1a) How can I get a slide effect instead of the static jump to next picture on the imasge viewer resulting in a click on a Portfolio item image, such as from a page like this: http://heavylightexperience.com/website/portfolio/desk-concept/ There is obviously a carousel option for Portfolio items on which you can turn on the slide effect, so I imagine it’s possible for the image viewer that comes up on clicking thumbnails from a Portfolio item page.

1b) How can I get text captions on or underneath the image on this image viewer? This question also extends to the carousel image slider on Portfolio item pages.

1c) Is it possible to have an image counter? i.e. “1 of 12”.

2) On portfolio thumbnail pages, such as:http://heavylightexperience.com/website/positive_casts/, is it possible to insert a background image to also show up, in addition to color and opacity edits which are available in theme settings? I want my logo to show everytime someone rolls on top of a thumbnail.

3) Top Menu Rollover: How can I edit the width of the dropdown options window under “HLE”? I want the dropdown to be only as wide as the character options.

4) Footer: How can I get a third, middle column? If I can’t, the icon for the choice to select a three column footer is misleading. I didn’t like the default content that you guys had above the footer line, and above the two side columns, I want all colums to share a header margin.

Thanks for your time, and for the great theme! Efrat

Hi Efrat,

1a). This is the Lightbox effect we implemented in the theme, unfortunately there are not other type of animations.

1b). To achieve this paste these lines of code to your Custom CSS area:

.single-portfolio-holder .gallery .photo .caption {
margin: 0px !important;
opacity: 1 !important;
}

.single-portfolio-holder .gallery .photo .caption h3 {
color: red !important;
}

1c). That is not possible now, maybe we’ll add it as an option in the upcoming updates.

2. Unfortunately this is not possible.

3. Add this code to the Custom CSS to achieve that:

.main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container div.menu>ul ul, .main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container ul.menu ul {
min-width: none !important;
}

4. You can have three widgets but not in the copyright area, you can put these information in the Widgetized Footer and then disable the copyright area.

P.S. Please update the theme, we released the new update today, it is better to stay safe and updated and also the Rev Slider will be fixed with this.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi,

First, thanks for your quick reply.

Unfortunately, your CSS solutions aren’t working for me.

For Question 1b, I was talking about putting text captions on or underneath SLIDER images, and also the static carousel images. Not thumbnail images. Your CSS suggestion only affects captions on Portfolio thumbnail galleries like this one: http://heavylightexperience.com/website/portfolio/desk-concept/

Question 3, my dropdown menu under “HLE” still seems to have a minimum width, which I want to eliminate.

And new question. Is there a non-CSS way of removing the Portfolio category menu? I’ve achieved it thru CSS but would rather do it through Theme Options.

Thanks, Efrat

Hi Efrat,

Regarding 1b, you can do that in the slider by putting a text layer in there, I don’t know any other way to do it.

Sorry, I gave you the wrong code for the dropdown, this one should work:

.main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container div.menu>ul ul, .main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container ul.menu ul {
min-width: auto !important;
}

To remove the category filter go to the Laborator > Portfolio Settings and make sure you untick the second option, just like the screenshot:

Actually I have a shop on etsy.com. In the future I would like to have my own shop, this is the reason why I would choose the kalium theme, that I appreciate for many reasons. For the moment I want to mantain the etsy shop and I would like to know if I can link the product description in your theme with the etsy shop as selling point.

Hi there,

There is an option called “External Products” where you can put your product and name it all then when anybody wants to purchase you will redirect him to the path of your shop.

Hi Kalium,

You have those beautiful tabs shown in the element section of the demo page, but when I add tabs from VC, it just just the VC default tabs. How can I add the tabs from the theme? Thanks.

Eric

Hi Eric,

I just talked with the developer regarding this issue, it seems that the Visual Composer ruined the tab styles, we will get back to you with a solution soon.

Kind Regards,
Art

I just upgraded the theme to your latest update with the VC update. There is a tabs option in the Deprecated section, which follows the theme design. However, it says this element no longer supported in newer versions of Visual Composer. It is ok to use? (the tabs option in the all section is still VC style)

Eric

Hi Eric,

We are aware of this and we have added it to the fix list for the next update, we need to re-do the tabs in our own style cause VC is not supporting them anymore.

Best Regards,

Hello there!

This theme looks really beautiful! Great work!

I have a question, which I hope you can easily answer. Namely, browsing though the theme’s live demo, more precisely through the portfolio types, I could’t find a type that looks like http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/main/portfolio/multi-color/ i.e. that the side bar stops scrolling, whilst the images continue to scroll until the end of gallery is reached. Side Bar Portfolio comes closest to it, but it’s not quite the same as the above link shows.

Can you please let me know if the downloadable version has this “effect” built in?

Also, I was somewhat confused with the description regarding the “purchase codes” and plugins, under the support tab. Does this theme come with all the elements necessary to make it work and look like the live demo?

Many thanks,

Atif

Hi Atif,

In the portfolio items we have put different style for each item to show that there are hundreds of layout types available in the theme, this means you can use it in general and the reason why we put it only in a post means that we wanted to show how the layouts work.

Kind Regards,
Art

Great! Many thanks. A lovely theme.

Best wishes,

Atif

Hi Atif,

Thank you very much for this worlds :)

Hello Kalium Team, I have a few questions about the Colorsettings:

1) How can I change the color of the menu underline and the menu text color as well? I’m using the standart mode menu.

2) On my Portfolio page: How can I change the colour and text options (I’d like to have this text italic) of the sub title?

3) How can I change the text color of the checklists?

4) How can I change the line spacing of project links?

Thank you!

Hi vanessaramster,

Hmm, ok then, i will try to give you the answers, i hope that the code will be exact will work for you too, because it’s a bit difficult without the live site :)

First i want to tell you that you can change your website skin color from WP Dashboard > Laborator > Theme Options > Custom Skin Builder > click YES, then there you can change your skin colors.

(view large version)

1— Can you please add the code below to Custom CSS

.main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container.menu-skin-light div.menu>ul>li>a:after, .main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container.menu-skin-light ul.menu>li>a:after {
    background-color: blue !important;
}

2— What portfolio layout are u using? Can you send us screenshot link?

3— Where are those checklists? On which page? Can you send us screenshot link?

4— I think that i don’t understand this question. Again, a screenshot will make it easier for me. :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hello thanks for your answer: Here are my screenshots:

http://i.cubeupload.com/BDJ89L.jpg http://cubeupload.com/im/lEMbZm.jpg

I use the ‘Thumbnails with Titles Inside’ Portfolio layout

Hi vanessaramster,

I’m sorry but this is impossible to give you the exact code without inspecting your site code.

When you’r site is online please write us again and we will check them easily. Hope for your understanding :)

hello, Im using Kalium MAIN theme and i cant find where to set pictures in the main page like in your demo version (with statute of Liberty, train e.c.). Where i can find these settings?

Also why any posts are not loading in the main page?

http://www.renovacijos.lt/

Thank you very much in advance.

Hi there,

I checked your site and see that you have not set the PHP limits good, please contact your hosting company and tell them to update these lines:

max_execution_time 180
post_max_size 32M

I have 2 small questions, regarding my website (www.koodiak.com)

1. How do I remove the ‘blog’ part from a portfolio item permalink? Right now, I get “koodiak.com/blog/portfolio/itemname” instead of “koodiak.com/portfolio/itemname”.

2. Is it possible to remove the featured image from single post for only certain types of posts? I have the Instagrate plugin running, which puts my instagram photos as blog posts, but right now the image is used twice.

1. Unfortunately I already had these exact settings, so that doesn’t help. Could it be because of the permalink settings? I use a custom permalink, structured like this: www.koodiak.com/blog/ year - monthnum / postname but I think this only affects the posts and not the portfolio items.

2. Ok, no problem. It’s only a minor detail :)

And thanks for the compliment!

KR,

Ok, I seem to have answered my own question! :D Changed the permalink to a default format and now it’s fine!

Hi koodiak,

Aha, great, so the problem is solved now :)

Feel free to us anytime that you have a question, please use search before you made a question because often you can find the same same question that is made from another user, and our answer is there :)

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 ) :)

Hi,

1) Im trying to assign a product to a particular category, however, when i go to category page the product does not show up. What is it that I’m missing here?

2) i am currently working on the demo content to understand how the theme really works, for some reason even thought the homepage has the slider embdeded, the slider does not show up…. www.koaala.co/beta

3) Also, when you go to the home page, i have added images to two products ‘Oak tray’ and ‘shapemaker’. Now untill you scroll down, the images down show up. Why is it so ?

4) how can i get the same look and feel as on the demo setup on themeforest… essentially how each thumbnail is in equal portrait dimension… i found a workaround by then i’ll have to crop each image to the same same to get portrait oriented thumbnail….

sorry if these questions have already been asked, I couldnt find them… really request for your help here!

Since updating to Kalium 1.5.1, my custom page content built using Visual Composer shows up blank. An example is at the page: http://asd.sutd.edu.sg/dcc/publications/. Here is what it looks like in VC: screenshot Any clue for how to fix this?

Thank you,

Ok—I think the error is that VC is not actually updated, but I have some issues installing the VC update required by Kalium: screenshot. All other plugins update successfully.

Hey—sorry to keep replying to my own comments here, but I manually updated by copying the contents of the js_composer.zip file to my server. Still a bit of a pain, and it would be nice if the update process worked properly.

Best,

Hi john_jakubiec,

Hmm this can happen because of file permissions on your hosting server.

Hope that you will not have any problem like this next time, if you still have this problem next time just write us again and we will check for the solution.

Thank you for this awesome theme!
Does this theme support RTL 100% ?
Is there any live demo or screenshot for RTL?



Thank you very much :)

Hi MrSajjad,

For the moment Kalium doesn’t support RTL, we will see if we can do something about is on the next updates, because a few users have asked for it :)

Hi!

I have a problem with the Theme Options. It opens, but I can’t select anything starting from Branding – I press the different options, but nothing happens. I can’t edit the page with Visual Composer either. I tried to find some advice, but couldn’t. I have installed all the plugins.

Please help! :)

Now I found out, that if I insert the following code

”/** Absolute path to the WordPress directory. */ if ( !defined(‘ABSPATH’) ) define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(FILE) . ’/’);

define(‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false);”

to my wp-config.php-file, I get to see Theme Options and I can even edit some of the options, but then different problems occur:

1. I can’t press any buttons e.g. under Branding 2. Saving doesn’t work 3. The Visual Composer still doesn’t load, although in the background I can see some new movement

I even get white text on white background under Pages.

Now I got it to work. Thanks!

Hi miklosmikkonen,

Hi Laborator Team. I have four questions / concerns about www.fredrikvestergard.se: 1. Featured image not displaying when you click on it, shows the error message “The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.” I don´t want the feutured image open in slidshow. 2. The menu hacks, moves a few pixels of the browsers Chrome and Opera when navigating. 3. In Safari and Microsoft Edge appears eg phone links, underlined and colored. Can I avoid this? 4. The page is loading slowly. I have tried with W3Total Cache the entire side was destroyed. With WP Super Cache, which increased the loading time a lot, but then lost my color settings on the menu, background etc. and returned to its original settings. Can your recommened any solution cut the loadingtime eg which cache program working well with the theme Kalium?

Thanks in advance Fredrik Vestergård

Hi Fredrik,

Have you worked previously in another subdomain or something cause as I see the images are trying to be loaded from another source, also the problems with the links and menus throughout the browsers don’t seem to happen to me even though I tried many times, if you could illustrate this with any screenshot it would be better.

Regarding the speed of the site, we don’t have anything to do about it, we minimize the images and scripts to the maximum to make them more lightweight so they will be opened quickly, also try to avoid other unnecessary plugins if you have installed any cause they will cause many delays.

P.S. Great projects on your portfolio :)

Kind Regards,
Art

Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I changed the domain name during the development of the page. Previously I worked in Dreamveaver, so WP is quite new to me. When I changed the domain name, I thought I did well. But, do you have tips on how I am to bring order to the images loaded from the right source? At the same time I want to get rid of a lot of old plugins, etc. that remain in the code.

I also have problems updating the theme automatically via Envato toolkit, the page becomes just white. I have tried to do exactly as you recommend, and I have followed the previous posts on this forum, but not succeeded. The only way for me to update the theme has been to completely uninstall it and then go through ThemeForest and download it manually.

Grateful if you could help me with this.

Kind regards Fredrik Vestergard

Hi Frederik,

I don’t know what to say because during the move process this caused the theme breakdown, but can you e-mail us all your login credentials for FTP, phpMyAdmin and WordPress and we will try to fix it somehow.
