Hello,

Quick question – is it possible to remove the word ‘category’ from my blog page titles?

I’ve tried adding this to the function.php but it doesn’t work.

/** Gets rid of the word “Category:” in front of the Archive title */ add_filter( ‘get_the_archive_title’, function( $title ) { } );

if ( is_category() ) {
  $title = single_cat_title( '

', '

' ); } return $title;

Thanks,

Deborah

Hi Deborah,

Try by adding this to the Custom CSS:

.category .page-heading-title .section-title h2 {
    text-indent: -9999px;
}

.category .page-heading-title .section-title h2 span {
    text-indent: 0px !important;
    display: block !important;
}

Kind Regards,
Art

Perfect! Thank you. The end :)

Hi Deborah,

Glad to hear that mate :)

P.S: If you like Kalium, it would help us a lot if you could rate our item on themeforest from your Downloads tab, ( if you don’t know how, just open this link ) Thank you!!

Hi, I’m adding new page to the website, but there are 404 error happens, I can’t visualize anything that I’ve edited by the back end. How can I résolve this problem?

Thank you Ylli, but i don’t have FTP… is that ok?

Hi Tastyatelier,

So are you trying to install the site to your localhost?

The FTP is your server Username and Password.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Ok, got it, I’ll ressend the mail.

Hey mate,

Thanks for the great theme.

Just a quickie: How do you set the logo and menu to be ontop of the image slider? Like this:

Hi benhamdam,

Just go to that page and click Edit, you will see this option

Choose Header Position to Absolute.

Getting this error when I’m deleting posts:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/kchzr66k2q7babw/Screenshot%202015-10-20%2019.59.40.png?dl=0

Please advise!

(thanks for the help with the last task :-))

Hi benhamdam,

This is a Wordpress issue i think and not the Theme issue, i’m afraid that we can’t help you there.

We can suggest you to use the latest version of Wordpress and please update all your premium plugins from the Appearance > Install plugins section.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi, great theme!

Just one question, I have a problem with the Revolution Slider on my homepage. I installed the new version of Kalium, but it is not showing. Could you help me?

Thanks!

Hi designyourpage,

Please don’t forget to update all plugins on each theme update, just go to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support.

Your problem will be fixed :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

thank you Ylli, I just updated all plugins. I must do something wrong or overlook something because the slider is not showing (yet)

Hi, I’v tried to install the shop demo content, but the max-execution-time required is 180, what is provided by my host is 30, and I can’t change it.

What makes the shop demo need a 180 max execution time? What can I do to solve this?

Thanks a lot !

Hi Art, I understand. The thing is I will finish the term with the actual host in one week, and I would like to do the transfer before that…

Can I ask a dashboard ticket? Or it is not for me? Sorry I’m new here.

Thank you.

Hi Art,

Thank you for your response on my questions.

I’m preparing to change my host tomorrow to meet the theme recommended php limit. Since I haven’t worked much on my site yet, can I just reinstall wordpress with the new host, and reinstall Kalium the same way as I did?

Thank you.

Hi there,

Yes the procedure is the same, just make sure you have all the required PHP requirements and there will be no problem.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello we love your theme! :) but we have a question.

1:What’s the best/easiest way to stop indexing a specific page? – Where can we add the: <meta name=”robots” content=”noindex,nofollow”> code? to www.domain.com/page123/

Hi there,

1. You cannot do this via the theme but you can get any plugin that will stop indexing your pages, this one may help you.

2. This isn’t possible via the theme, you can get any plugin if it will do the job because the theme does not have custom scripts field on pages.

3. Can you please send us your site URL first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello Art, we’re not interested in writing the URL here, can we email you?

Thank you,

Hi Ylan,

Kind Regards,

Hello,

I’d like to completely translate contact form messages, but there are some strings that cannot be translated like “You have received new contact form message.” or “This message has been sent from IP:”.

I found out that they all seem to be hard-coded in: kalium/inc/lib/vc/lab_contact_form/init.php

Could you please fix this in next release?

Kind regards, Ceslav

Hi Ceslav

I have thought of this solution but since they contain dynamic variables, I couldn’t add them to language files, instead I have created filters for that reason.

I hope this will work fine for you?


Arlind

Hi Arlind,

Filter on subject and message body is a flexible solution, so it’s fine for me.

However, if you need to translate strings with dynamic content (variables) in them, most of the time sprintf function can help you out: sprintf(__(“This message has been sent from IP: %1$s”), $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’]);

See: http://at2.php.net/manual/en/function.sprintf.php

German translator then could translate this string as: “Diese Nachricht wurde von der IP Adresse %1$s gesendet.” The __() function would perform translation of the format string for sprintf function, then sprintf would paste the IP address in correct position :)

This approach is nothing I invented, it’s used in standard WordPress themes a lot.

Greetings, Ceslav

Hi Ceslav

I feel so stupid, didn’t thought of this solution!

Another issue here that these strings are concatenated and it makes it a bit complex to translate.

So I will consider adding this in the new update.

Thanks for your efforts.


Arlind

Hi, I want to update the Visual Composer. Downloading and individually updating the VC trough an FTP client does not work. Your support service (Robert B) recommended me to update the whole Kalium theme. How do I proceed after downloading the newest version? Nothing changes if I upload the new theme into the wordpress file through FTP?

Thanks a lot,

Leonard

Hi Leonard,

I see that this is the first ticked that you have created, also we don’t have any team member that it’s name is Robert. Maybe you have confused with another theme?

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. Specially Visual Composer, and you will have latest version of this plugin :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thanks Ylli. That was helpful. But what happens when I update the theme? Will I really loose all my customizations? Does that mean I have to build my website from scratch again? Thanks a lot

Hi aniniboy,

You will not loose anything unless you have done any change to core theme files such as .php and .js files.

If you have touched only Theme Options the theme will not loose anything :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hello,

I’m using the Mansory Blog template: as I tried to publish a photo gallery post, it appears that the photo gallery shows on blog page, but not once on the post page, where only text shows. How can I make my gallery posts look like the demo, with full-width gallery picture appearing over text once on the post? (like here : http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/main/designing-with-your-clients/)

Thank you! Best regards

Hi Hélène,

As i said, you just need to go to Appearance > Install Plugins, and update all the premium plugins. Specially Visual Composer, and that problem will be fixed :)

I just did that for you this time.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thank you very much Ylli. The initial problem still appears though: no carousel picture shows once on the post I cited in the beginning.

Thank you for your help, Kind regards, Helene

Ok, i already sent the email, thanks.

Hi guys,

Thanks for the help so far. Still got some issues though:

1 You helped me changing the single-blog page, but it’s only working on the first post (giving the photo more top- margin) works: http://arte-d-ardito.nl/wordpress/nieuw-gezicht-voor-strand-zuid/ doesn’t work: http://arte-d-ardito.nl/wordpress/nieuws-enzo/

2 I’ve modified my theme colors, but it’s not working on the blog post page. For the images yes, but the titles still give the Kalium green color on hover http://arte-d-ardito.nl/wordpress/nieuws/ 3 How do I make the ‘share your thoughts’ section dissapear? http://arte-d-ardito.nl/wordpress/nieuw-gezicht-voor-strand-zuid/

4 In the photo slider after the single-portfolio-item page, the squares on the left and right side of the screen turn dark grey on hover. Is it possible to make them go away completely (or simply turn them into white?) http://arte-d-ardito.nl/wordpress/portfolio/13182-nieuwbouw/

Thanks again mates,

Really much appreciated.

Hi chaps! Just a couple of quick questions – is there a simple way of using the portfolio page template for a blog page too (showing all recent posts etc.)? Same layout (either grid or Masonry), but with post category filter instead of portfolio category filter etc. I realise there’s a blog template but it’s styled very differently to the rest of the theme and I’d like the look to be consistent across my site.

Also, is it possible to use the portfolio page template, and add VC elements before the template begins? I’d like to add a featured project (using VC image carousel/single image) above the grid of other portfolio items. Currently when I try to do this, the page displays VC tags/code for the element rather than the element itself.

Cheers! Nate

Hi Nate

1. There is a difference between portfolio and blog posts, and these layouts cannot be mixed, I am sorry about that.

You can alternately create a portfolio item with “external link” to the blog post you have created, so this way you can use portfolio:

http://drops.laborator.co/1djDH

Then create a new page with Portfolio Page template and select those items that link to blog posts. This can be the only solution for that.

2. Can you please give me the URL of this page, I can figure out whats wrong and provide you the quick fix if that is possible.

Kind regards


Arlind

Hey Arlind, thanks for such a prompt reply. The VC + template issue is visible here (I’ve just used a revolution slider to test it out, but the same result occurs with any VC elements): http://staging.nathanchandler.co.uk/work/

Cheers, N

Hi Nate

In this page Visual Composer is supported, but you are using an older version of Kalium (1.3.1) and the latest version is Kalium 1.7.2, so if you update Kalium to latest version that page will work properly.


Arlind

Hello folks, 1. Will the Architecture demo be missing or breaking anything without the woo commerce plugin? 2. Could you share with me the compiler used for your scss files? 3. Should the Envato Toolkit plugin be available on more than 1 production site? Thank you!

Hi 10kthings,

Nice to hear those words, and i’m glad that your problem is solved now :)

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) :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thanks for your reply Arlind. For me, it is not so much about the WordPress jpg compression and I believe I can squelch the unneeded re-sized images. But I’d like to make use your Custom CSS modules to define the image sizes I want to use per viewport range.

Would you have any media query examples for the Responsive or Sass modules?

Hi 10kthings

I’ve just replied to your other thread which is similar to this one I guess, can you confirm if this is the same thing you have asked in another topic?

Arlind

Excuse me,

Finally I started Kalium update through the Envato Toolkit plugin, but Download failed.

This was the message:

Could not open handle for fopen() to D:\XVRT\manodesanto.info\Html/wp-content/kalium.zipAWSAccessKeyIdAKIAJYG5ROGJ6X7Z3M6QExpires1444751095Signature2v3rI4UIIJJKwOoaiYPE5iAkLoM%3Dresponse-content-dispositionattachment%3B-filename%3Dthemeforest-10860525-kalium-creative-theme-for-professionals-wordpress-theme.tmp

What can I do?

Thanks!

Hello,

I’m trying to upgrade Kalium through the Envato Toolkit plugin, but i can’t.

In Marketplace Username I wrote my username (aleborigen) and my password. And it was not possible because: Username and/or API Key is/are invalid(s).

Even, I have changed my password at Envato and tried it again, but it doesn’t work anyway.

It always appears: “Username and/or API Key invalid”.

Could you help me please?

Hi aleborigen,

There’s probably something is going wrong with your username or API key.

Hi, I have also the problem with the carousel portfolio type. In Chrome and Safari I see the pictures but in Firefox I can’t see any photos. Here is my url: http://www.christinabrun.com/palestine/?portfolio=love-2

Can you please help me. Thanks, Christina

Hi Christina,

Have you fixed this problem or it is still active?

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi Ylli, I could made the update. It was a problem about the execution time. The only thing it still doesn’t work is the text now. It doesn’t float correctly:

Hello there,

LayerSlider WP seems activated but there is a message underline: You need to authorize this site in order to get upgrades or support for this plugin. Purchase a license or enter an existing purchase code.

I used the purchase code you provided: 1062bb3d-14ad-4504-aa9d-b44e706aa476 And looks like its not exerting it. I get this message upon entry:

Your purchase code appears to be invalid. Please take special care to enter it correctly without accidentally including spaces or other additional characters. Please note, this feature won’t accept your theme’s purchase code. This also can be a temporary issue in our services. In that case please try it again in a few hours.

Please advise Thanks Vic

Hi there,

Have you updated all the premium plugins? You can do this via Appearance > Install Plugins and update all the premium plugins that come with the theme, I think that the latest version of this plugin was included in the theme.

Kind Regards,
