Hi,
I would love to change the heading icon to a custom one. There are now 10 options but is it possible to add a 11th? I have the icon in png.
Thanks, Sille
Hi,
In order to change the Heading option, please add the code below to the functions.php in your child theme:
function flora_update_shortcodes(){
vc_add_param( 'wyde_heading', array(
'type' => 'dropdown',
'class' => '',
'heading' => __('Separator Style', 'flora'),
'param_name' => 'style',
'value' => array(
'1',
'2',
'3',
'4',
'5',
'6',
'7',
'8',
'9',
'10',
'11'
),
'description' => __('Select a heading separator style.', 'flora')
) );
}
add_action('vc_after_init', 'flora_update_shortcodes', 100);
The code above will add a new style (11) to the Separator Style option. However, you need to add your custom CSS into the style.css in your child theme to set the background for this new style as below:
.w-heading.title-11 h2{
background:url(your-image-url) no-repeat center bottom;
}
Hope this helps!
Thanks for the reply, Adding it as a background consequences in the whole header having a background. I would have the same margins as used now. So only replace the header icon( 7 in my case) and change that by a png.Is this also possible?
Hi,
In order to replace an icon in the header 7 with custom background image, try adding the custom CSS below to your child theme:
.w-heading.title-7 h2:after {
display: block;
content: '';
height: 30px;
background: url(your-image-url) no-repeat center center;
}
Hello Guys,
sorry for asking again. I definitely want to change the portfolio layout for category and skill archive page, it is supposed to use the flora masonry layout. How can I do that?
I am looking forward to your answer. Thanks in advance. Daniel
Hello,
Thanks for your comments and valuable feedback so we will add a layout option for portfolio archive page in our next update that will be released in a few days. Please wait for the new update instead of edit the code directly. 
I want to use a static image instead of the Slider- where can I make this change?
Also how do I choose which slider is shown? I have made three variations
Hi,
You can display the background image in the page title area instead of your slider so you should edit your home page and remove the first row where you see the Revolution Slider element. And then scroll down to the Flora Options, select the Title Area option and choose the title options as follows:
Display Title Area: Show Size: Full Screen Background: Image Background Image: (Choose Your Image)
Also, in order to change the slider, edit your home page you will see the Revolution Slider element and then edit this element to choose a new slider.
Cheers.
hi I’m very new to wordpress.., when i try to import a demo in the theme options, it seems to import everything apart from the “widgets” section which just remains spinning/loading.
Hi,
Seems like your host didn’t support .json file type so you should add MIME type for JSON, see more -> https://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/tutorials/configuring_mimetypes_on_the_server#Apache_HTTPD_server_-_.htaccess
Even you couldn’t add this type to your host and you couldn’t import any demo in Theme Options completed successfully, you can import each part individually by importing the demo files from the “Demo Content” folder within the main download package. You can import “flora.xml” file by WordPress Importer plugin and import “theme_options.json” in Theme Options -> Import/Export section, copy the whole content in this file and paste them into the “Import From File” option. And then import the sliders from the folder “revsliders” in the Revolution Slider section.
Hello Guys,
first of all thank you for your wonderful theme. I love to test the possibilities of designing my own portfolio your theme comes with. But i also have 2 questions which could not be solved by browsing through or by consulting the comments site respectively the documentation.
1. When clicking on a category or a skill on the portfolio site a new page links up. for example the link is called …/portfolio-category/art-direction. The item/page „portfolio-category“ has a different style than the rest of your theme. Furthermore I cannot change this design like I can do at a blog post or portfolio page.
So my question is: Can I change the design (for example using the masonry layout)? Or can I just change the option at a category being just a word instead of being a link?
2. On the Page Layout the Pictures respectively the Projects all have this little magnifying glass. When clicking on the icon a window opens up where you browse all the pictures being on the project site. This is a little bit confusing because i had the idea that I could browse through the project.
So the question: Can I just disable the magnifying glass so that there is not a possibility that a window would show up.
I am looking forward to your answer. Thanks in advance. Daniel
Hello,
1. Sorry but this theme has no option to change the portfolio layout for category and skill archive page, it will use the default masonry layout as the template design. Also, you couldn’t change either category archive slug (portfolio-category) or skill archive slug (portfolio-skill) that are the custom taxonomies from the theme.
2. You can add the custom CSS below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to hide this icon:
<style type="text/css">
.w-view figure figcaption > span{
display:none;
}
</style>
Also, when you choose the Masonry for the portfolio layout, this icon won’t show up.
Cheers.
Thank you for the fast answer! It works.
Hallo, I bought Flora Theme for wordpress and I find it a great theme.
I have problem to add personal CSS rules. I tried to insert it in the custom.css.php file and in the style.css but I have no effect. How can I add my little style adjustment with css? Thank you Ross
Hello,
You can add your custom CSS in Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content as follows:
<style type="text/css">
.your-css-class-name{
....
}
</style>
If you modify any file in the theme directly and it is updated, then your modifications may be lost. Adding into Theme Options section you will ensure that your modifications are preserved.
Cheers.
Thank you for the fast answer! It works perfectly
Welcome! 
I bought the issue, I would like to change only the color of the menu buttons, as could.
I also want to change the language of the read more button, put a custom text. I hope you can help
Hi,
If you are using the Top Menu, you can choose between Dark and Light version of the menu text color but it’s not allow you to choose your custom color. The custom menu color option is available for only the Left Menu so you can change it in Theme Options -> Navigation -> Side Navigation / Mobile Navigation, and then change the Text Style option to custom.
This theme includes .po and .mo files that allows you to edit and translate all static text within the theme. You can use the translation software like POEdit (https://poedit.net/) to edit and translate them, see more here -> http://www.smashingmagazine.com/2011/12/internationalizing-localizing-wordpress-theme/#providing-translation
I installed the advised Visual Composer version 4.7.4: Page Builder for WordPress upgrade and now my site is taking much longer to load. Have you checked this new integration with your theme?
When I switched back to older version- site loaded much faster again.
Hi there,
We’ve already checked and tested this new update with our theme and it works fine on our demo sites. Sometimes feel like it’s a bit slower than the old version, we supposed that because an extra AJAX script that has been added to the latest update of Visual Composer. We also see some users have complained about this issue in the Visual Composer comments page -> http://codecanyon.net/item/visual-composer-page-builder-for-wordpress/242431/comments?page=494 but there is still no solution for this issue. We’re waiting for a new update from the Visual Composer and hope it will be improved.
Cheers.
Hi Wyde,
I purchased Flora about a month ago. So far the theme is working great for me, thank you. I have chosen the Portfolio demo and customised it for my website but I do not need a BLOG page. I deleted it on the ‘pages’ section of my dashboard but it still wont disappear from my website. How do I get rid of that page?
Hi,
If the blog posts always appear on your front page that means you’ve set the latest posts as your front page. You should change this option by navigating to Settings -> Reading, choose “A static page” as your “Front page displays” option and then choose your front page.
However, if your home page has a Blog Posts element, your blog posts will still appear so you should remove this element from your page.
Cheers.
I just did a fresh installation of wordpress, activated all required plugins and clicked import left menu demo and now my homepage doesn’t show anything but a loading animation. http://ovtliers.com/
I keep getting this error when i try to import one the sliders provided.
importing slider settings and data… Error: Wrong export slider file format! This could be caused because the ZipArchive extension is not enabled.
Hi there,
The Slider Revolution plugin requires ZipArchive class (http://php.net/manual/en/class.ziparchive.php) to import the slider, you should install this extension on your host, see more on how to install -> http://php.net/manual/en/zip.installation.php
Also, if your host has a cPanel/WHM, see this -> https://forums.cpanel.net/threads/compile-php-with-enable-zip-configure-option.99137/
Cheers.
I am having page load issues on the homepage of my website. Not sure if it’s the sizes of my images in the media library, or what? Can you take a look and see if there is another issue happening with the theme? Help is appreciated! 
Hi,
Of course! The sizes of your images are too large but I’m not sure why your WordPress didn’t crop and re-size your images so the template displays your original images instead. Normally, when you upload an image to your media library it will be cropped and re-sized to the certain sizes but seems like it wouldn’t be on your website.
Maybe, your host is suffering from PHP configuration limits that are set too low to complete the process that causes it couldn’t crop the large size of your images so please re-size your image before uploading to your website.
The recommended image width: larger or equal 1280px and smaller or equal 1920px.
Also, if there is any other plugins installed on your website please try to deactivate them.
Cheers.
Also, if you would like you can send us your admin login credentials so our support can access your dashboard to investigate this problem and help you out. You can send these credentials in the message box in this link -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact
Hi, for some reason, there is a white bottom border appeared on my header area. There is nowhere in the template to remove this border. Can you tell me what to do to fix this?
Hi,
When you enable Transparent Header option, the bottom border will appear to separate between the header and the title area that’s a template design. If you would like to remove it you can add the custom CSS below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content:
<style type="text/css">
#header.w-transparent{
border-bottom:none!important;
}
</style>
Cheers.
My slider text is not aligned correctly on mobile. Can you take a look and tell me what adjustment to make? I really like your Theme.
Thank you!
http://havanadigitalmarketing.com/I fixed it
I’m glad to hear that problem has been resolved!
However, if you would like you can set the slide layout on mobile as below:
1. Turn on Custom Grid Size option for mobile, see on 4.4 Layers Grid Size in this link -> http://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-setup/#slidelayout
2. Edit each slide and select the Mobile icon for edit slide layout including text size on mobile.
Also, you can import our demo sliders to see more on how to customize the slider on each screen size. You will see the demo sliders in the folder “Demo Content” within the main download package.
I see a theme update is available. If I install this- will it override my customizations of my existing Flora theme?
The update won’t affect your existing content and settings, this will replace the theme files such as PHP and script files. If you need to edit any PHP files or CSS files you should use the child theme (flora-child-theme.zip) that included in the main download package. For more details on how to update the theme please follow the instructions in our documentation.
Cheers!
Hi, I love this theme and am considering buyit right now, but I’d like to know, is it multi-site (or Network site) capable? Thank you, Antonio

Sorry for our late reply!
Thank you for choosing this theme!
This theme will work in multi-site as well as a standalone WP instance!
Hope you enjoy it!
Cheers!
Hi, I have a problem with the mobile version. Under the menu I see an info box with a mobile number an email (email@domain.com) and address (1234, Mountain View Ca…) Where can I change it?
Hi,
You can change the contact info in Theme Options -> Navigation.
Thanks! I didn’t saw it!
Welcome 
Hi there,
I like your theme and was looking at the left-hand menu option.
I ran it through GTMetrix (we are in Africa, so every kb of data counts). The page got B’s which is great, but we would like to ask about the following two points:
1. 226.4KiB of JavaScript is parsed during initial page load. Defer parsing JavaScript to reduce blocking of page rendering.
2. This page has 14 external Javascript scripts. Try combining them into one. This page has 5 external stylesheets. Try combining them into one
How flexible is the theme in terms of cutting out what we need to get #1 lower and to get fewer requests to the page in #2.
Thank you for your time.
Hi there,
1. When the theme working on AJAX Page mode it will include all required JavaScript and CSS files once on the initial page load. If you would like you can disable AJAX Page mode option that will reduce the script size on each page.
2. This theme follows WordPress standard for including JavaScript and CSS files that will add each file separately (for easily editing). So 14 scripts and 5 stylesheets are just a small amount if compared to other WordPress websites that regularly have too many scripts and styles from the installed plugins. However, you can turn off the AJAX Page mode to reduce the number of scripts and stylesheets within the page.
Also, you can install a cache plugin such as W3 Total Cache (https://th.wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/) that will increase your server performance and reduce the download times as well.
Cheers!
Hello, I’m working on setting a simple HTML code for login in the sliding-bar, and I’ve noticed that if you lose focus on the sliding bar (like when you have to copy/paste a user/password combination from another window), the sliding-bar disappears behind the slider and it’s not visible anymore, even if you close/open the sliding-bar again. It also corrupts the width of the revslider, as it adds white space when closed. I think that the issue is in the way z-index is set, as it only happens in the area used for the revslider.
I made a short video based on one of your site-demos to show you what’s the problem, as I think a visual aid is easier to understand.
You can find the video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgDRCCiSNzU
Thank you for your time.
Hello,
Thank you for your video and taking the time to report this issue.
Exactly, this issue will happens on the revolution slider section only because when the slider has got focus (after it has lost focus) it will re-draw and re-play that reset the slider states such as position and width. We will fix this issue ASAP!
Cheers!
Hello,
The full-width slider will always force the slider width to full the browser width so when it got focus it will resize to full width as you see in this issue. You can fix this issue by changing the Slide Layout from Full-Width to Full-Screen or Auto. Also, if you choose the Full-Screen please don’t forget to turn on “Disable Force FullWidth” option, see images below:
Currently, we’ve used the full-screen slider instead of the full-width so this issue has been fixed, try it on our demo site -> http://wydethemes.com/flora3
Cheers.
Hi! Please tell me you have a lesson or instruction about how to do multi-layered parallax. To multi-layered parallax can be manipulated with the mouse. As in this example http://revolution.themepunch.com/wordpress-fullscreen-slider/ – tab from parallax. In this example, I can move the mouse and the background starts to move – I need exactly this effect.
Hi,
You can see the instructions on how to create a parallax slider here -> http://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-settings/#parallax
Also, you can download the demo sliders here -> http://revolution.themepunch.com/free-slider-exchange/ and import them to your website to see more on how to choose any settings for the parallax sliders. In this download page you can select the Parallax to display the parallax sliders.
Cheers!
Hi,
great theme! Is it possible to try it as WP-Admin just to make sure it fit my needs?
Thanks!
Hi,
Sorry but we have no Backend Test Drive for the theme! You can see page layout and design in front-end on our demo sites -> http://wydethemes.com/flora and see also the theme features at the bottom of this page -> http://themeforest.net/item/flora-responsive-creative-wordpress-theme/12038776
However, this theme includes Visual Composer Page Builder so you can try the Backend Editor from this plugin here -> http://vcpreview.com/
Cheers!
