Hi!
I am using Kalium theme and just recently updated to version 1.6.1.
I have a problem with portfolio items when using the carousel (3) design option. The text (info and headline) does not align with the first image and other images that I add does not show at all (all this worked perfectly before update).
I am not sure if this is related, but I am also getting a notification that I need to update Layer Slider from 5.5.1 to 5.6.2. I have done that so many times, but it doesn’t seem to register.
Please help!
Hi! Here is the link: http://www.colorisland.se/portfolio/prov-1/
It is Carousel v2 that I am using and am using firefox 41.0.
When I go to the official Kalium live preview this carousel doesn’t work either: http://themes.laborator.co/#theme=kaliumBest Regards Emilie
Hi Emilie,
Hmmm, can you please add the code below to Custom CSS
.single-portfolio-holder.portfolio-type-3 .gallery-slider .gallery-item:first-child {
padding-left: 0px !important;
}
}
As for the Layer Slider question, can you please delete Layer Slider from the Plugins section first, then go to Appearance > Install Plugins and install it again, the error will disappear.
Kind Regards,

Hi! Layer slider problem is solved, thank you! However the portfolio problem still exists. Added your custom css but the carousel is still not working properly. Please help!
Hi emiliemottet,
I just tested our live demos on Firefox v.41 and they are working as they should, i don’t see any problem. You can see that on this video http://drops.laborator.co/10J9n
When i go to your site i don’t see the the second slide, but we don’t know why this is happening, to check that can you please send us your WP credentials on email? We need to investigate your problem and then get back to you with possible solution.

Hi! So now I have made the update to 1.7.2 – Kalium theme – Carousel slider v2 (without space) is still not working in firefox. I looked at your theme site and its not working there either. Seems to work in Safari. http://themes.laborator.co/#theme=kalium
Great! Noticed another problem just now. The images on the start page does not scale with the firefox browser window (this also works in safari).
Its regarding the same site in this thread: www.colorisland.se
Hi! Sorry if Im not being specific enough. If you change the size of the browser, the images on the start page dont adapt to the width of the window. This is something that worked before the Kalium 1.7 update. Ive checked this on other computers with firefox and its the same issue. Best Regards Emilie
Thank you, that worked! Please get back to me as soon as you know the code to fix the portfolio image slider! Best Regards Emilie
Hi! I am wondering what is going on with the kalium portfolio carousel slider and when it’s gonna work again? It was one of the reasons for purchasing this theme so quite frustrating that it isn’t working now. Still waiting for you to fix it!
Kind Regards Emilie
Well, I tried this and its still not working. When I look at your site, Kalium theme live preview, well it’s not working there either. If the code you give me should work, how come the portfolio slider still doesn’t work on your own site? Best Regards Emilie

Hello, I changed the file as you have told me , the problem persists. The error code if it reappears on the pages. Warning: explode(): Empty delimiter in /homepages/22/d572238417/htdocs/app592319106/wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/laborator_filters.php on line 574 Can you help me quickly please ? Thank you Vanessa
Hi Vanessa
Please download this file and then try again to see if the problem is fixed:
http://drops.laborator.co/VafbReplace it in the same folder you did before I told you.
Hi Kalium Team
After upgrading to 1.6 I happily found some of my reported bugs fixed
But there is one still there: when enabling ” Show categories below the titles” and clicking of one of the categories on the thumbnail of any portfolio items the sorting still doesn’t work properly. When disabling the interaction of the categories showed on the thumbnails then it would be no big deal, but since you can click on the categories on top of the thumbnails the user assumes it sorts, but it doesn’t do this in a correct way. See here: http://paintedbynature.ch/augenblicke/
The difference between the sorting by category shown on a thumbnail is the URL. E.g. http://paintedbynature.ch/augenblicke/?portfolio-category=laender
versus the URL when sorting by category on top of the page:
http://paintedbynature.ch/augenblicke/?portfolio-category=laender#cat:laender
Thanks, konrad
Hi Airlind
thanks, but it doesn’t work in any sorting: not in List order, nor in “date” or random order. Is it possible to remove the link (disabling the interaction) from the categories on the thumbnails. Sorting on top of the page would be enough. And displaying the categories on the thumbnails is fine, but they don’t need to be clickable. Thanks konrad
Hi Konrad
I have created a workaround for this, so please replace these files to get this functionality:
1. Download these files: http://drops.laborator.co/19mst
2. Extract the folder and replace them in these respective directories:
portfolio-listing.php -> wp-content/themes/kalium/tpls/
kalium-custom.min.js -> wp-content/themes/kalium/assets/js/
Then in functions.php add this line of code in the end of file:
add_filter( 'portfolio_container_isotope_category_sort_by_js', '__return_true' );
This should work for you.
Thanks a lot Arlind, seems to work.
Do you change this in the backend as well, so in the next update it will be fixed, or do I have to repeat these steps after updating to a new version of Kalium?
have a great day,
konrad
Hey Ylli,
got a stupid question: I wanted to rebuild the dark skin of Kalium, but it doesn’t work.
I’ve created a revolution slider and set it on the main page. But the revolution slider is not at the top :/ I can I made this? When I set the header on absolute I’ve got problems with the menu header on other sites.
I’ve tried a lot, maybe you can help me out?
How can i change the primary theme color?
Hi
To change theme primary color simply go to:
Appearance > Theme Options
Then click Theme Styling tab, on * Custom Skin Builder* choose Yes and set your preferred colors, and click save.
Here is a screenshot of how to apply the skin:
http://drops.laborator.co/13GrRHi Laborators,
same as others I have some color issues since I installed the latest update: Even though my individual “Theme styling” seems to be untouched, my website shows the default colors.
In addition I have some troubles when adding columns via Visual Composer to a blog post (this happened even before the update): Whenever I add more than column (like two columns of text) its content will leave the wrapper.
Hi there,
We have fixed the first issue in the last update, you can see it in the changelog also:
FIX: New skin implementation not working in some cases – http://d.pr/gSkT If skin is not being applied theck check the box under “Custom Skin Builder” and click Save changes to fix this issue.
Regarding your second issue, if you could post a link to your site and problem page it would be easier for us to know what the problem may be.
Kind Regards,
Art
Hi there,
here is a blog post I created with a default setting. As you can see the content will leave the wrapper on the right side. Also, whenever I create a textbox with the visual composer its content won’t align left (see headline TEST and following text which doesn’t align equally).
Thanks for the info. I deactivated the author’s display and the headline does align nicely now, but the following items are still a bit odd. Is there something I can do about it or is there no hope since the Visual Composer isn’t meant to be placed in the blog section? (http://ribbitknight.com/test/)
Also, I activated the “Blog Title & Description”, but it won’t appear on top of my blog. (http://ribbitknight.com/blog/)
Hi adttmr,
This question is related to theme developer and I am unable to give you any solution about this because I am not backend developer.
Our theme developer Arlind or Art can help you with this, but they took the holiday vacation and they will be back on 04 January.
When they come back, just reply to this thread and you will make sure Arlind or Art will see your comment.
Hope for your understanding.
P.S: I see that you are using our latest theme update, but you haven’t updated premium plugins, you can update them by gong to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support 
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
Hi there, it’s been a while
I wonder if someone from the development section could help me out with the blog issue.
Hi adttmr
Sorry about the late answer. Usually we expect customers to get back with their problem after a team member is on vacation, because we are unable to handle all these tickets in the past.
Now since I am here, I can handle with your site, but want you to know the issue. From the time you have written about the issue we have been updating the theme with several updates and don’t know if any of these updates has affected your site.
Can you tell me your current issues so I can answer your questions.
Hi Arlind,
I was in charge to send a reminder, but unfortunately I didn’t managed to get back to you about this issue earlier. Since my blog hasn’t any published content so far, there was no need to hurry anyway 
I have the latest updates (theme and plugins) installed, but nothing has changed so far. All content I added to my blog entry appear with an insertion. My test entry is still available right here.
Kind regards, Anna
Hello Ylli,
when I deactivate the author section shouldn’t a blog entry be like a page or portfolio? Like empty?
I thought that maybe there’s a reason for the insertion to happen and that only a short code snippet is needed to fix this. But I guess, there is nothing you can do.
Hi,
I´m moving my old photoblog (http://foto.sofiafloren.se) into my new Kalium themed website (http://sofiafloren.se/blogg/). I can´t seem to show the “whole”posts even though I´ve clicked “full text” under Settings – Reading. Is there a way to show the posts as on the old blog, and even better; with a sticky sidemenu?
Thanks, Sofia
Hi Sofia
That setting is applied only to “feed” XML, and its not applied to default blog posts.
So you can do this manually by changing one line of code:
Open this file in your server:
wp-content/themes/kalium/tpls/post-details.php
On line 32 change this code:
$post_excerpt = get_the_excerpt();
To this:
$post_excerpt = get_the_content();
And save the file. It will display full text for blog posts.
Dear,
I have 2 questions about the the portfolio section.
1. I would like to change the font style for the ‘text quotes’, but can’t find where. Is it possible and if yes, how?
http://demo.webarchitecten.com/pier/index.php/portfolio/aanbouw-woonhuis/2. All images in the portfolio are clickable and appear in a popup lightbox with < slider > . Is it possible to show the image without any popup?
kind regards, Justin de Kleer
jdekleer@webarchitecten.comI see, that question 1 is already answered 7 days a go; But i can’t find the place where I can change it in the code… Style.css won’t show ‘blockquote’.
I have it fixed, only question 2 left!
Hi Justin
For the second issue, go to Theme Options and follow the guides in the screenshot below:
http://drops.laborator.co/13Pi4It will disable the lightbox in portfolio single page.
Best regards
Hi Martymcfly2015
After I tried the same settings in my copy of Kalium (latest version) and it worked fine.
Make sure you have the latest version of Kalium, also if the settings will not work try checking this box in theme options:
http://drops.laborator.co/18lzPIt should work properly as it does for me.
Hello,
Thank you for your answer. I’ve just tick the option, but nothing changed. Do you have any solution for changing the color of the border ?
Maybee I can change it manually with css code ?
Kind regards.
Hello,
My website is : http://www.nvrh-paris.com/Please, tell me which solution is possible.
Thank you per advance, Kind regards.
Hi, I have Two questions:
1: REDUCE OPACITY OVER THUMBNAILS
I have tried this custom CSS
.portfolio-holder .thumb:hover .hover-state { filter: alpha(opacity=40) !important; -webkit-opacity: .4 !important; -moz-opacity: .4 !important; opacity: .4 !important; }
It work but also the title fade out and is unreadable. Any better solution?
2: IS POSSIBLE WHEN I VISUALIZE FROM TABLETS ONLY TO HAVE TWO COLUMNS INSTEAD OF ONE?
Thank you
MArk
Hi Laborator,
I’m using your Woocommerce of Kalium, and I’m still working on this but I’m having some problems with:
1. Changing the Main Menu sizes (I would like to do it a little bit smaller) 2. Putting in horizontal the footer Menu instead in colums 3. Keeping a specific size between header and the images. ( I’m using empty space in home and about us.. but I can’t use this for product pages) 4. And also I would like to delete the underline for the links in the footer menu
This is the website, if you need it. www.aliudstudio.com
Thank you, Clara.
Hi Clara,
Your site is on coming soon mode, can you please disable it until we reply your questions?
P.S:
You are using an old version of our theme (1.5.2) and the latest version for the moment is (1.6.1), please update theme first.
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 
Then don’t forget to go to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support.
Kind Regards,

Hello Laborator,
I do not work in the lightbox images of the portfolio, I should change to look good when clicking on an image? thanks
In my website> no lightbox http://www.javierbalvin.com
> I want it to look like this http://www.javierbalvin.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/09/YES.jpg
Hi balvin
If you want to disable the lightbox:
http://drops.laborator.co/qTN4It will disable the lightbox for portfolio items.
Hi Laborator,
How do I set a button to span the width of a column?
Currently when I add a button it sits on the left, and is only a standard size.
Thanks,
Phil
Hi Phil,
You can add buttons and any element you want to what position you want by splitting it into columns with the Visual Composer, some elements have their own settings when adding them.
Regarding the button sizes, you can choose between them when adding a button from the Visual Composer.
Kind Regards,
Art
Hi Laborator,
I understand what you are saying but you have not answered my question.
I had already looked at the options for the button – but there is no option to set it to span the width of the column in Visual Composer.
You can only set the size of the button – Mini, Small, Normal, Large. I want it to fill the width of the column.
There isn’t even an option to centre the button, so it currently sits awkwardly on the left – and just looks weird!!
Is there an option for this? Or an extra class I can manually type in to achieve it?
Thanks.
OK. Thats a shame.
Thanks for adding it to the to do list. I look forward to it being available. 
Hi there!
I wanted to get the Kalium freelancer, downloaded the file and imported the freelancer file to wordpress, but i don’t think this is the freelancer? https://itsjesseyeay.wordpress.com Uploaded a sample postI read some comments regarding this, and you said to go to Laborator > Demo Content Install, where can i find this menu and option exactly?
Thanks!
Hi there,
I see your site doesn’t appear to be working anymore, the option you’re looking for will appear immediately after you install the theme, on the left side at the end of the menu list there will appear Laborator where you can select the Demo Content Install and select which pack you want to install.
Kind Regards,
Art
Hey There,
I’m looking to increase my overall site width so that everything is locked responsively to the edge of the page with a bit of padding on each side (~80px). Does that make sense?
Thank you for your wonderful theme!
I love the theme, and I have my full website. I have only one question, and I can remove the menu of a page? to not display.
Thanks for any input =)
http://javierbalvin.comHi balvin
If you want to remove the menu from specific page apply this custom CSS:
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.menu-bar {
display: none;
}
}
Apply it in Page Options, like shown in edit page.
http://drops.laborator.co/1inMwI just upgraded the theme to 1.6 and suddenly the the theme skin options aren’t working. I manually set the links in custom css to my preferred color, but none of the other colors I chose are working. When the page loads you see that the correct background color loads for one moment and then the wrapper is set back to #fff. This is my site: http://ofc.wpengine.com/
Hi there,
FIX: New skin implementation not working in some cases – http://d.pr/gSkT

Hi Laborators
,
I just purchased your wonderful theme. Searched through a lot of themes, but found the Kalium theme to suit my needs best. For my company I’ve bought the Swiss721 font to use for web. I’ve uploaded it on my site and want to use it in my Wordpress/Kalium site. However I can’t get it to work. I’ve added the URL on the custom font field, but after trying all sort of settings, it still doesn’t work.
The font is located in a folder http://jorishoogstede.nl/fonts/webfonts
That is also the URL I use in the Kalium typography page.
Could you please help me with this? Many thanks in advance!
Joris
Thanks! Finally worked! I used the url to the WOFF file and now it seems to show my own font.
Hello!
I am sorry to bother you again, but is it possible that since the update to 1.6 the custom query of a portfolio page template isn’t working anymore?
I have this feature working here:
http://www.martin-schulz.photography/portfolio/I checked it in the admin backend at the portfolio page and the custom query and the selected items are still there. But if I look at the output at my page I see now all portfolio items displayed.
And I also have a pagination displayed also I have no number of items to Display selected, the field is empty.
Thank you so much for having a look!
All the best! Martin
I am so sorry, after closing the browser everything seems to work properly…
Hello,
i just updated to Kalium 1.6 and now there’s a small problem.
Right now, I’m only showing the coming soon mode. If I change the background colour (in theme-styling) it still remains green (the default one). It worked before the update..
Best regards, Mathias
