Hey Kalium-Team!

I’m short before launching my new website based on your theme…

Now there’s one last thing I’d like to adjust: is it possible to change the ratio of the text column and the image columns within a single portfolio item? I like the clean look very much but want to have the images a bit more to the left. Please see here what I mean: http://www.andibrunner.com/screenshot_portfolio_single.png

Maybe I can adjust that in the editor? But I don’t know which file.

Thank you, Andi

Hi Andi,

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

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi Ylli

As above, my site is not public yet, so I wrote you an email. You’ll also find my login there. Thank you

Andi

Hi Andi,

I understand what you want to do but that’s not possible through the theme options, there are only three types of text width.

Hello, sorry i have an extremely urgent question. I have spent the last week putting a lot of custom css on the custom css sheet accessed via the Theme Styling page. All of a sudden today, without me doing anything, all the custom styles i have put in were lost and the Custom CSS page became blank!!! All my work in the past week has been lost!

Please let me know how my work can be retrieved, it is very frustrating and worrying that everything is lost for no reason.

Thank you, Carole Ho

Hi Arlind, I now have an even more complicated question. Like you said, I tried many things and couldn’t recover my custom CSS codes. However, since I have backups at my web host, I managed to restore the database files from yesterday and all the changes I have made via the custom CSS codes have been restored, but not actual codes in the form of a file. So my question now is, do you think this restoration will keep my custom CSS intact (but in a form i cannot see myself)? i.e. is it safe to assume that these changes will not be undone again in the future even in the form of a theme upgrade? Or if it would, is there anyway now to preserve those custom styles now that i have access to older database files. Please let me know.

Thanks a lot, Carole

Hi Carole

If you have the old database file, I can restore your custom CSS from that file, you just need to send it to me and I will find the proper css code there (only if the database backup was saved in that time when you had Custom CSS).

You can send us your sql file directly to our email and I will handle other things.

Cheers


Arlind

This is so great to know Arlind, I will be in touch via email.

Thanks & Regards, Carole

Hi there. Great theme!

On a portfolio/side page I need to use a shortcode in the gallery to show an .swf (using Kimili Flash Embed – it works fine in the description section). Is there any way of doing this?

Nevermind – I sorted something out. Thanks anyway!

Glad to hear that :)

Hello, Your themes are absolutely stunning – Kalium especially. I’ve been working on my website for the past month and everything has gone smoothly until an error popped up which means I haven’t been able to save anything:

http://i.cubeupload.com/71SAh3.png

I don’t know how to fix either of these, and my site, studiojonah.com/wp2 is only displaying a white page – if you need to login to my dashboard, is there a more private method of giving you my password/username?

Thanks so much!

Hi there,

Are you using the latest version of the theme? Updating the theme may fix a lot of issues you may have with it.

If you still have the same issues after updating you can send us your login details by e-mail.

To send us email use this link. Please note that we usually do not respond to emails that request support, because here is our primary support forum. We use contact form just for sending sensitive information.

Hi,

Everytime I click ‘Save Settings’ on any menu under Appearance > Theme Options I get a message that reads ‘X Error!’.

Any way to fix this issue?

Thanks

Hi again,

I logged into your site and checked what may be wrong with that, the problem is with your host – you have to increase your PHP limits and for this you can ask the hosting company.

The minimum requirements for the theme are these PHP limits:

max_execution_time 180
memory_limit 128M
post_max_size 32M
upload_max_filesize 32M

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art,

I asked my provider to do this days ago and the changes were confirmed the same day. If you don’t know what the issue is I’d rather you just say instead of quoting the help information I have already read for myself. I am sure you’re as lothed with this issue as I am but I’ve spent hours trying to get this theme to even save changes. I’m very busy and don’t have time to be faffing around with clunky installs and contacting my host everytime your theme causes an issue.

Thanks

Hi there,

We know what the issue is, the problem is that your host provide DID NOT change all the PHP limits, and you can see that by going to the plugins and view the phpinfo plugin, the max_execution_time is set to 30.

You can see the image for more: http://i57.tinypic.com/nejgg2.png

Hi! I have a few questions:

1. How can I change the icon of the hover in the portfolio section? No it has an eye.

2. I’d like to remove the like button (heart) at the end of each project in the portfolio, how can I do it?

Thank you very much!

Hi Budka,

To change that icon, please see this site http://linea.io and choose what icon you like there, then tell us which one with screenshot.

If we have that icon we will tell you how to change it.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi team!

Is there a way to remove the portfolio category filter menu in the mobile version?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I managed to hide the Portfolio Filter by adding some Custom CSS to your site.

Hi again, I get this warning when i try to make some changes in a VC-row:

Warning: array_map() [function.array-map.php]: Argument #2 should be an array in /home/movingp/www/lagerlager.ch/dcV2/wp-content/plugins/js_composer/include/classes/editors/popups/class-vc-shortcode-edit-form.php on line 44

Hi quentro

After contacting Visual Composer team I got this answer from them:

As for your error – our dev team are looking into this and we will release update soon for this one so please make sure to update. 

So we should wait till Visual Composer fixes this issue, because this issue is related to VC plugin.

Hi, love Kalium :)

Quick question: I’m trying to change the font in the auto-type. Everything works fine, except the font-weight won’t change.

.auto-type-element { font-size: 63px; line-height: 90px; font-family: "Roboto",sans-serif; font-weight: 100 !important; } and .auto-type-element { font-size: 63px; line-height: 90px; font-family: "Roboto",sans-serif; font-weight: 100; } don’t work, the text is always too bold. http://lagerlager.ch/dcV2/

Thanks

Hi quentro,

Nice to hear that :)

This is happening because that font doesn’t offer thin font, if you choose another font from Theme Options that supports thin weight it will appear :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thanky for your very fast reply. When I look here: https://www.google.com/fonts/specimen/Roboto there is a Thin 100

Hi there,

I don’t know why but as I see the theme has not included the Thin font in your site, we will check what the problem is and fix it in the upcoming version.

Here is the screenshot from your site source: http://drops.laborator.co/Lc6x

Hello. He wanted to know if it is possible to put icons of social networks but in the section of the menu?

excellent work

Hi Poitevin18,

That is not possible for the moment because it will not look as good, but in the future if we have an better idea we will implement it :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

“Lots of great options out of the box, easy to figure out & configure, timely response by the author when you need help and post in the comments for support.”

  Kalium received a 5 star rating from sixtwenty3dc for Design Quality.

Are you using Kalium too? Don’t forget to rate it!.

Hi Laborator team,

I am interesting to buy kalium theme, but before I need to know one question…

When theme is filtering categories, it only there is one step of hierarchy. I want to say, only one categorie hierarchy for all categories.

I need use two steps or hierachies, for example: I need to filter between location or type, depending which option I selected, after it will shown me all categories of type, or location…

Can I make it in this theme?? If theme don’t let me this option, Could you make for me?? I need know it and the price of this new function.

Thank you very much and I hope reply! Cheers, Paul.

Hi Paul,

The theme supports the categories hierarchy but on the front-end it doesn’t support it, if you want to show sub-sub categories you can’t do it, we are looking forward to add this as a feature in the upcoming updates.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. And can you custom my page with this function for any budget??

Thanks

Hi there,

We are sorry but currently we are not able for freelance work, when we do it we will include it in the theme.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello,

problem with the maps marker solved? It is not visible on Internet Explorer!

How can i change the size of the font of the portfolio items? I mean the size of the visible titles under the thumbnails! In landscape modus on an iPad the font size is to big! And the size of the font of the main-menu!

Thanks!

Hi NixonNow,

You need to refresh the site when you are on portrait or landscape mode and that “bug” will not appear :)

As for the visible titles, can you please add the code below to Custom CSS

.portfolio-holder .product-box .info h3 {
  font-size: 16px;
}

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Looks and works great … big thanks!

I’ve another question: i just to have the layer slider on top with an white logo and a white menu! If you visit the blog section the logo and the menu is still white and not visible! Is it possible to change here (blog section) the logo and the menu to black or a favorite color?

Hi there,

I tried including your LayerSlider in this page but it is being buggy and that’s why I left it how it was.

You can change the logo and the menu with page Custom CSS just like in the other pages.

I have problems with uploading the theme “Kalium” which I just bought.

Christian.

You should contact your hosting company and they will give you the host credentials, also the WP credentials are the ones you log in into WordPress.

Kind Regards,
Art

www.bak02.hinfo.dk/wp-admin – this website.

Hi Christian

After trying to login to your site I have managed to upload the theme but unfortunately after activating the theme I got one PHP error now I am not able to access the files anymore, I need to delete theme again and re-install it.

Please send us your hosting login information and I will handle installing it. Our email is info@laborator.co

Hi all

Please have a look at this screenshot: http://www.andibrunner.com/screenshot_gallery.png I’d like to have the gallery navigation different. What I am thinking of are simple left/right arrows which appear permanently in black color. So no grey hover effect as there is right now. Can you provide a css snippet for this request?

Thank you once again!

Andi

Hi Andi

This code will do what you want:

.nivo-lightbox-theme-default .nivo-lightbox-next::after, .nivo-lightbox-theme-default .nivo-lightbox-prev::after {
color: #000 !important;
}

And if you want to remove hover background add also this CSS:

.nivo-lightbox-theme-default .nivo-lightbox-nav:hover {
background-color: transparent !important;
}

Add it to Custom CSS and click save.


Arlind

Works!

Thanks, Andi

Glad to hear that :)

Hi, Question about the Woo commerce set up: I would like to use the function that sorts items into categories as in the Portfolio page, where the categories are listed at the top and rearrange when selected. I do not see this option when you are using the woo commerce shop page. How can i set this up? Thanks

Hi there,

I am sorry but this is not possible, it is a feature built only for the Portfolio page.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi,

I have emailed you several times and also left a comment on the comments section/discussion but receive no reply, and I saw that other people got answers so maybe you’ve forget to reply to mine.

So here we go again, I have a few issues and I Really Really need to finish this by today.

- The homepage is not showing my portfolio project beyond resorts and I have no idea why, I set it to show all and it appears in a blank box but the image is not show.. http://tinypic.com/r/29glumr/8

same with when you click on portfolio page itself:http://tinypic.com/r/2jewayf/8

- The blog page, when I click on it to edit there is no style (left right sidebar, with instagram etc or place for me to choose and edit from as seen in the examples provided..

- Please tell me where can I edit the footer, and also put in my social network links both on homepage and footer, every time I click on it there is no place I find for me to put in the url..

Look forward to your hopefully quick reply..

Best

Hi

Sorry for the delay of answer.

1. It is very weird how this happens, I’ve tried several fixes and none of them worked! I suggest you to re-create the same post and see if it will appear in the list.

2. The blog options can be only set in Theme Options > Blog Settings see the screenshot where: http://drops.laborator.co/ncoF

3. To add social networks in the footer, simply go to Theme Options > Footer, go to Footer Text, on Footer right text add this text:

[lab_social_networks]

This will show footer social icons below.

Hello again! A really quick question – I’ve been trying to set up the blog portion on my site (currently named “News”) and it looks gorgeous, although I’ve run into two problems:

1) The header doesn’t show up; I’ve changed the settings in Appearance > Theme Settings, but the top of my blog section is still without title 2) For the single post layout of the blog the featured image is HUGE at the top of the page which I don’t like… is there anyway to change this?

Thanks in advance!

Hi onahjung.

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

The page in question is: http://www.studiojonah.com/wp2/news/

Thanks again!

Hi there,

If possible please send us your login credentials or just make your website visible, we can’t do anything if your site is in maintenance mode.

Hello dear Developers. At first of all congratulations for your Awward wining. This template is beautifully simple. I am about to buy it, but when wanted to buy if that option before/after slide bar is working even for mobile devices please? Because when I tried to view it on iPhone or iPad and move it to left or right side, I wasn’t possible as on PC. Are you planing to make any update? Thank you for your time. George

That would be perfect. Thank you for your quick reply Ylli. All the best.

Hi wizard335, glad to hear that :)

Cheers!
—Ylli

Hi wizard335,

We have found a fix for this issue :)

First: Make sure that you are using our latest update 1.6.1.

Second: Please download this file and then unzip it.

You fill find there two .js files, copy those files and go to *kalium / assets / js and replace those two files there.

Please hard refresh your browser after you finish this procedure and check if it’s working.

If this fix works for you, we will include this fix on the next update too, so please notify us :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi,

There is an error in how you present portfolio items when selecting categories. To observe, go to my site http://www.jallov.com/, choose category ‘Game’ (five items appear), press F5, now only the first two items appear. Same thing happens if you click on a portfolio item and then press back button (it goes from showing five items to showing two).

This is not good, since prospective clients won’t see my entire portfolio when pressing back after viewing the first item.

I have received your email and I am going now to see what I can do for it.


Arlind

It appears to work with the default Portfolio page (at /portfolio/). How can I set this page to be the front page?

You can do this by going to Settings > Reading and tick the A static page (select below), from the dropdown menu select the Front page

Kind Regards,
Art
