Hi, Thank you for the great theme. I have a question about displaying portfolio thumbnail. I need to display ’ Portfolio Discription’ on portfolio ‘thumbnail’ image’ when mouse hover. Now it only displaying Title and category. Please guide me to do that

Thank you

Hi there, can you please post with the account you bought the theme, this way we can verify that you’re a real customer as we do not offer support to users who doesn’t have “Purchased” badge.

I was referring to your demo and please consider it as pre-purchased question. just only need to know if it is possible or not. appreciate your answer.

Hi wptalc,

That is possible, but you need to customize theme files,

You need to customize this file:

wp-content/themes/kalium/tpls/portfolio-loop-item-type-2.php

on the line 211.

PS : Please be aware as by doing customization if something happens like miss-editing files the responsibility is yours and we wont support you on finding the problem, as we are only guiding you how to get the results you need.

Help, i get this error message as i try to log in m worpress admin. Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 72 bytes) in /home/taipath/public_html/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2258

Hi taipath,

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

i am a novice actually, don’t know much about caching plugin, just keep seeing that error message

Hi there,

Please contact your hosting provider and ask them to increase your PHP limits, they will know what to do.

Here is an article from our documentation that will help them a bit: http://documentation.laborator.co/kb/general/recommended-php-configuration-limits/

And one more thing, after update to 1.7 it seems as if site a became works little bit slower, it can be ? Attaching Inspector screen, these warnings is normal ?

http://i.imgur.com/G5qYZCz.jpg

Hi Bordo,

Those warnings appear only on the Safari browser, but don’t need to worry about that, they don’t bring any problem to your site :)

The slowing problem is a placebo effect, because we didn’t changed anything related to performance, if you want, you can use a caching plugin, for example WP Super Cache :)

Ok, got it. Thanks.

Glad to hear that :)

Hello one question,

I can create a masonry portfolio in 2 columns, instead of 3?

thx

Hi imax,

Yes you can :)

Kind Regards,

Hello Ylli,

Please help with it:

1. How I can change font size for logo when sticky menu was activated I found this preference in theme options only for picture.

2. Very important. How change rows only for related products in shop. I use 3 rows in catalog, but I would like to use 4 or 5 rows for related products. I have inserted this source in function.php but it doesn’t works.

// Change number related products

add_filter( ‘woocommerce_output_related_products_args’, ‘change_number_related_products’ );

function change_number_related_products( $args ) { }

$args['posts_per_page'] = 4; // 4 related products
$args['columns'] = 4; // arranged in 4 columns per row
return $args;

3. Portfolio filter works little bit strange if you go to my site: www.romanbordo.com and do it nothing on main page your first action will be click on Branding Identity, you don’t see nothing, if your clicks on Print you will see 2 items instead of 3. if you make scrolling down on a main page it will be works properly.

4. How I can to make changes for how many portfolio rows will be shown for a each screen resolution. At the moment It only 3 rows for big screen and one for more small. I want to make 2 rows for medium screen resolution as well.

5. There is some possibility invert header font colour (logo and menu) depends of background, you can see this feature example how changed a shop icon. http://www.romanbordo.com/works/tkalich-2/

6. In Safari scrolling cursor here (http://www.romanbordo.com/works/tkalich-2/) looks like as not retina.

Thank you.

Regards, Roman.

Hi Roman,

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

.header-logo.logo-text {
    font-size: 20px !important;
}

2— Just add the code below to Custom CSS

.woocommerce.single-product .single-product .products .col-md-4 {
    width: 25% !important;
}

.woocommerce.single-product .single-product .products .clear {
    clear: none;
}

PS : Please be aware as by doing customization if something happens like miss-editing files the responsibility is yours and we wont support you on finding the problem, as we are only guiding you how to get the results you need.

3— Please go to WP Dashboard > Laborator > Theme Options > Portfolio Settings > Pagination > and choose this option:

(view large version)

4 and 5—This is not possible.

6— Thanks for reporting that, i have just written this on our to-do list for the next update :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thanks for your reply.

2 and 6 now ok.

1 – Yes I know how to change logo font size, I asked about how to change font size when sticky menu is activate when you are starting scrolling, like here (http://kickstartent.com) but only change font size on more smaller.

3 – Yes, this option was already selected. Where I can check more.

4 – But if I chose another type of portfolio in theme options it works properly 3/2/1 rows. I attach pictures ([img]http://i.imgur.com/0RZVNAN.jpg[/img]) hope it help understand that I mean. You can just say where I can find these lines in CSS.

5 – Ok, but how this effect apply for a shop icon ?

Thanks.

Roman.

Hi Roman,

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

header.sticky-active .header-logo.logo-text {
    font-size: 18px !Important;
}

3— Hmmm we will check this again on our localhost and if this problem happen to us too we will check for a solution.

4— Can you please try to add this code below to Custom CSS

@media screen and (max-width: 768px) {
    #isotope-container .isotope-item.w4, .portfolio-holder .isotope-item.w4 {
        width: 50% !important;
    }

}

Hi, I have bought 2 regular licences for Kalium, one is used as a webshop and will be selling watches and the other for a school project. Is it okay to create one more site for my own portfolio site without having to buy a third regular license? best regards Pernille

Hi Pernille,

For each site that you want to use, you must buy another copy, those are Envato rules, and you can read them here License details .

Hope that it makes sense for you, enjoy Kalium :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi just a question before purchasing,

is it possible to use the freelancer demo with the classic menu (simple menu)

Hi puifon,

For sure, you can do that on Theme Options with just one click :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Best Laboratory team.

I have a recurring problem with my theme since I bought it last summer. Every time I ‘ll update the theme crash site. I have repeatedly tried to update the way you recommend, but I have not succeeded. Eg Envato toolkit show no update available, since Kalium 1.5.2. Instead I have downloaded the updated themes from Themeforest.com, installed these but it has always been a problem. Please, is there any possibility that you can help me to solve this. I am very pleased with your theme but it is untenable that each time it is updated be concerned that the whole page does not work and I´m forced to reprogram parts of the page.

Sincerely Fredrik Vestergard

Hi Fredrik,

Hmm this is very very strange, probably you have any problem on your hosting environment.

Envato Toolkit should work for every user.

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.

To send us email use this link and please write us your request again, because we receive a lot of emails on daily basis and we unfortunately can’t remember all customers requests.

P.S: 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. Also emails response time can be up to 7 business days.

Hi, I’ve just bought Kalium theme and it’s awesome. Thank you for such an amazing job.

After using it for a while I came to a problem with Google web fonts. I need to use diacritics – characters like “š” “ž”...

Everything but the Latin diacritics (that I need) are shown in the different kind of font (I guess). I used default font Karla or any other font from the Google web fonts, but the results remain the same. Here is an example http://bit.ly/1LRmo7K I use “Latin Extended (latin-ext)” fonts, so it’s not a problem of missing characters.

I tried using Typekit – and it worked out pretty well. It would be great to figure out how to use Google web fonts without any issues.

Hi slioza,

Another use had this problem and he said that he fixed this problem with this plugin WP Google Fonts.

Can you please give it a try?

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi there,

I’m having issues with the Kalium – Agency theme. The fixed footer is not working on the Portfolio details page (single-portfolio.php).

On all the other pages (blog entries, normal pages) it’s working perfectly fine.

What I have noticed is that the <footer> tag is within the wrapper > container > page-container div. I don’t understand why that is, because nothing in the PHP code has been changed.

Is this a known issue?

This is an example post: http://www.ruidocommunity.com/portfolio/random-people-quotes/

Thanks in advance for your help.

Best.

Hi Radjarani,

We won’t be able to provide support for outdated versions.

We want you to experience the best we have to offer while keeping your site safe.

Staying updated is the way to do it!

You are using an old version of our theme (1.5.2) and the latest version for the moment is (1.7), 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,
—Ylli

Hello,

Is there any chance in the future you will release a version of the theme that allows comments to be enabled on pages? My client has asked for this and I don’t really want to use Disqus – the Kalium comments form is just the right fit and also very clean and looks really nice.

Thanks,

Deborah

Hi Deborah,

We have written on our to-do list the option to comment on single portfolio items only. And we will add this feature on the next 2-3 updates :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Great – look forward to it.

Another quick question: I have a (normal) portfolio page setup with visual composer elements and a portfolio item. Its located at http://my.url/portfolio

But when go to http://my.url/portfolio, it shows me another portfolio page (the one, which you can setup in the Kalium Theme Options). Thats quite bad, since all my custom elements and stylings are not there. I can’t access my portfolio page via http://my.url/portfolio.

When I change my page url to something else, like http://my.url/portfolio2 , than I can see the right page. But http://my.url/portfolio is than still occupied by the default theme portfolio page.

I tried to flush via Permlinks save, but that didn’t help.

How can I use http://my.url/portfolio for my custom page?

Hi there,

If you have the latest theme update just follow the instructions on the screenshot below, we have recently added this:

I wrote you just ealier. Needed to say that in Chrome the menus 3 lines keep changing pixel size. Allways 1 that is 1 px thinner than the others. This is not a problem in firefox. my site is www.northweb.dk and my purchase code is 459dcc09-4d69-4e9e-a6ee-db6038b4f221 – 1 Oct 2015

Hi lasseron,

Hmm i’m sorry but i can’t see that bug, here is how i see it.

Sorry, its when the screen is scaled to 90% the error shows. My browser was scaled to that.

Hi there,

Scaling the screen down to any size will change the size of all the elements.

Concerning the video in the background thing: That has resolved itself with the visual composer update…

Hi there,

Glad to hear your issue has been fixed now :)

Hi, is it possible to use the fullscreen menu also as the mobile menu? Saw that other people here in the comments are also looking for this feature.

Maybe with the option to disable the footer in the fullscreen menu when viewing on mobile (hence it would be very small) but still show it when using on desktop.

That would be great!

Hi there,

Is this the same you had in your other ticket, that one you marked as fixed from the day?

P.S: I saw that you have created some other tickets, can you please try to add all your questions in one thread, because in this way is easy for us to understand what you have done and what is left, also is would be easy for you to post in one thread :)

Want to report a CSS error that you may want to implement a fix for. Mousing over linked images in blog posts animates the underline through the middle of the image.

Here’s an example: http://joshrickert.com/blog/invoicing-apps-for-freelancers/

Featured image doesn’t seem to be affected, but hover over one of the embedded linked images farther down for an example.

GZip – will it ruin the functionality? I am using Cloudflare, and one option is to compress CSS, HTML and JS files – but will that cause damage to functionality?

I could not find any discussion of this in the comment threads, though it would be nice to speed up the site a bit more.

Hi mrzilla,

We haven’t tested this, but all our scripts are minified so you don’t need to worry to compress them more :)

If you want to speed up your site you can use WP Super Cache plugin.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli
