Hi i would like to disable the scrooling on google maps contact header….

I found the post you answered to had this in custom javascript ….

<script type=”text/javascript”> jQuery(document).ready(function($){ jQuery(document).bind(‘em_maps_location_hook’, function( e, map, infowindow, marker ){ map.scrollwheel = false; }); }); </script>

BUT ! It doesn’t work.

Hi there,

Can you open a ticket on our HelpDesk regarding this request so we can investigate this properly?

Thanks, Robert

Guys we really need some more flexibility to this theme…. I’m trying to build different portfolio pages … and it’s not even possible to control what projects appears… A part from excluding the “featured” ones… C’mon… Pile is a great theme… But it quickly becomes frustrating considering the so little amount of customization… Can you do something…. ?

There is not even a demo for the about page…

Hey,

Sorry for the late comeback!

I understand your point, but you have to know that we are hardly working on all of our themes, constantly improving them as long as the time is on our side. :)

Have a productive Monday! _

I am sure you are hard at work and I see that you can bring out great themes…. Thank you Alex. However Pile theme desperately needs features that are basic and kind of necessary to any trendy customizable theme like yours. I sincerely hope that you will address this.

Make it a productive week ;-)

Awesome theme! Does it support self hosted videos in the homepage instead of vimeo or youtube?

Hey,

Sorry for the late comeback!

Unfortunately, it was specially designed and built with YouTube and Vimeo in mind. :)

Have a productive Monday! _

Hello

Isn’t is possible to choose a video header?

Thanks

Hey,

Sorry for the late comeback!

Yes, it is possible to insert a video in the header via YouTube or Vimeo.

You can insert the video link while editing the project, on the Featured Image section. Click on it, and you’ll get this ? http://prntscr.com/93blcj. Hope that helps! :)

- Alex

Sorry for the above link, here’s the right one ? http://prntscr.com/93blcj

I’m simply losting my mind !!!!

I’m very disappointed : I had a bug with charmelon js … it didn’t work anymore… I did a reboot of everything (data base and clear all wordpress, content and themes on ftp) ... I reinstalled it….

And it don’t work neither on any page … except homepage (when it works…1 time on 3)

Will you fix it soon or it’s a death option I don’t have to use ? ....

Because it’s one of the first reason i choose this template… and it doesn’t work at all !

Glad to hear that! :)

- Alex

It works… better… but it’s not fine… refreshing problems… once again : I can’t wait for the next update

Hey Colin,

Is everything alright here? :)

Alin

Hi, I’m having an issue that the content isn’t centered, I searched over your support page and even here in the comment but I couldn’t find any solution. If you could help me with that I’d appreciate that! Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mt1830ph69iu830/Screen%20Shot%202015-11-13%20at%2000.12.24.png?dl=0

Hey,

I’ve found the problem. It is coming from these two ? http://prntscr.com/946tlr & http://prntscr.com/946uxj

You either have this custom CSS snippet inserted in Appearance ? Customize ? CSS Editor or in Theme Options ? Custom Code ? Custom CSS and you can safely delete it, or you can replace it with this one, as a last resort solution:

.pile--portfolio-single {
    margin-left: 0px !important;
}

.pile--portfolio-single .pile-item {
    padding-left: 0px !important;
}

Tell me if that worked for you.

Have a great day! :)

- Alex

It worked like magic! Thank you!

You’re welcome! :)

Alex

Hi, i would like to change some things on the pile-item-content roll-over :

- change the color of the div overlay (same as the background by default)

- change the size of the color border

Thanks a lot :)

Hey,

For the first one, you’ll need this custom CSS snippet:

a.pile-item-wrap.dJAX_internal {
    background: bisque;
}

In order to change the size of the border, you’ll need to modify these values from pile/assets/js/main.js ? http://prntscr.com/91k29o

Have a great day! :)

PS: Paste the snippet in Theme Options ? Custom Code ? Custom CSS:

- Alex

Great !!!!!! You saved my brain :) Thanks

You’re welcome! :)

I think i found an another bug on Firefox :

The page is not totaly loaded when the user clic on a projet… the color script is runing… color fullpage… and nothing… i have to relaod the page to see something…

(can you remove the exemple after answer, my url website appears on google here…)

It’s the 4th bug i found, when will the next update will be done ? :(

Hi there,

I hope you’re having a nice Sunday! :)

I’ve checked your example but it seems like it is no project there anymore. Can you tell me if you encounter the same problem on our demo please?

Thanks, Robert

The url is ok.. I don’t know why you don’t see it…

Can you remove the url in my post ? thanks. (google see it)

The problem is less present is the new Firefox version (only on windows, on firefox osx the problem is not present).

The problem is not present in your demo.

If you want, you can open a ticket on our HelpDesk to investigate this and we’ll get back to you soon.

The link can be removed only if you report your comment above and describe them that you want the link to be removed.

Robert

Hi, your theme looks very nice. Just three little questions : - On the home page, can i change the size of the thumbnails and if i want to remove the slider it’s possible ? - There is a small animation to scroll down on the home page slider, it’s possible to put this animation on the other pages ? - No product (woocommerce) has more than one picture, it’s possible ?

Thank you. Romain

Hello,

Thank you for the kind words! :)

Yes – the size of the thumbnails are based on the width set on the container of the page, so the bigger the container the bigger the thumbnails. Also, the slider can be remove via some easy custom CSS code which I’ll assist you with. :)

The down-arrow is only available for the project archive page.

Yes, the products can have a lot more pictures, but only one main(bigger) one.

I hope these were helpful.

Robert

Can we see a demo (or screenshot) of how can be the theme with the main menu always visible? Thanks

Hi there,

Sure! Here’s a screenshot with the main menu visible.

Robert

Hello, I just bought this theme, great theme , the tutorial is perfect, thank you . But I have a big problem with the images : when I load an image I have an error ” HTTP Error affich_34758_1.jpg ” . if I PixTypes disables the plugin, I have no error . What to do ? Thanks in advance.

Hello,

I’m so glad to see you love the theme (despite the problems mentioned) ! :)

The problem seems to be originating from the server, but to be sure we can have a look at it first and see if we can do something about it so I can recommend opening a ticket on our HelpDesk. We’ll get back to you in no time. :)

Robert

Hi, i have a little problem… My content is not centrized in my page :(

An exmeple on my website : http://colinsfreelance.com/new/index.php/portfolio/recyclivre/ (can you delete the url after because google scan this page…)

Thanks a lot

Hi there,

I hope you had a great weekend! :)

I’m sorry about this – it seems to be originating from the last update of the theme. The good news is that it can be easily fixed with the following CSS code:
.pile--portfolio-single {
    margin-left: -60px;
}

You can insert this in Appearance-> Customize-> CSS editor field.

Anyway, let me know how it went.

Robert

Hi,

Thank you for this amazing theme. Just bouht it and I am very happy so far. I’m trying to set it up and am finding my way through. A few had me having a headache though:

The slug category to the portefolio is by default “pile_portefolio”. I want to change it to “portefolio” and nothing I have tryed (withouth reaching the css has worked). How do you change that. In a previous comment you mentioned that we cannot remove it but I would only like to change it.

Then in the Project, I would like to be able to see photos in large format (as they are in an article). If possible with a slider. Is there a way to do that ? As of now, I only get small previews.

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Thank you for the kind words! :-)

The category slug can be easily changed from Settings-> PixTypes .

The size of the images can be easily increased once you’ve inserted an Image content type in the project, just by dragging the right side of the box to the right – it should expand right away.

Also, you can set up a slider by using the slider option from the PixCodes plugin. After you are inserting an Editor content type you can select the fancy ‘P’ button and from there choose the slider shortcode.

I hope this was clear enough, but if not let me know please. :)

Thanks,
Robert

Hi, I need help with one thing:

I want to make the menu items ( all navs link) appear on scroll as a sticky , but when on normal position it can be collapsed as hamburger :) Please help me with that i really need that effect :)

Lucky

Hey Lucky,

I hope you had a great weekend! :)

As you know we can only have the sticky navigation menu as a hamburger and/or as display all the menu items, but unfortunately we can’t combine the two features so easily so I believe some extra work is needed in order to get this done.

Thanks,
Robert

It would be great if you can guide me to do so. Thanks alot . Ur help is much appreciated. Please help bro

I completely understand, however we can’t assist you with these sort of modifications since it is outside our support scope. Here are some places that we recommend regarding custom work : Codeable or Werkpress.

Robert

Hi, I just sended an urgent support ticket, hope i’ll have news soon ! Thank you in advance, Pierre

You’ll get the answer as soon as possible, for sure. :)

I have a other request : How to change color of current font ? Thx

Sorry for the late comeback!

Sure thing, I’ve sent the comment to review and I hope it will be deleted.

Regarding the color, something is pretty strange here, and it shouldn’t happen like that. However, use these custom CSS snippets:

div {
    color: white;
}

p {
    color: white;
}

Have a productive Monday! _

- Alex

thanks a lot !

You’re welcome! :)

- Alex

Hello I would like to desactivate change color menu script. Is it possible ?

Thanks

All the information you need is located in main.js file (search for charmeleon) ? http://prntscr.com/8viehr and in branding.php file ? http://prntscr.com/8vidr7

- Alex

thx for your answer… is it possible to desactivate it simplely ? Or may I modify to change the calls (but it’s not optimse at all).

Try and comment the bgCheckUpdate function from the main.js file (around line 2502). Tell me if that worked for you.

- Alex

Does the theme work with Visual Composer also? I have a VC plugin to re-design any product page, which allows me more freedom in my sales pipeline and storytelling.

:)

crossing fingers

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in Pile! :-)

We have not tested this kind of plugin on Pile theme but we tried to avoid them. Every visual composer plugin is “playing” with a lot of elements from the theme and WordPress too and, sometimes, this can do more bad than good. We tried to keep the theme simple but with all the options that a portfolio theme needs so, I think that this kind of plugin won’t be needed :-)

Robert

Hi. When I download demo mode, it’s not look like in the video anymore …. nos pictures but dark patterns…. is it normal ? Thanks

Hi!

Yes, the images used in the demo data are placeholder images because the ones used on the official demo have copyright agreements and cannot be distributed. :-)

Thanks,
Robert

Hi, I have two questions:

First of all, I installed the demo data, but it doesn’t load the visuals and navigation menu.

Secondly, on my homepage I would like to show ‘categories’ in the same way as a project. So I first want to show the users an overview of categories (in the style that a project is made up) and when they select a category they need to be directed to a page with all projects within this category (similar like how the standard homepage is setup now). I hope you could give me some directions on how to realize this.

Thanks in advance!

Hey Rolf,

We are pretty busy at the moment, but there are some great place where you can get all the proper assistance like Werkpress or Codeable . :)

Regarding the demo data, the pictures are just placeholders (dummy pictures) to simulate the demo website and you can set the navigation menu from Appearance-> Menus .

Cheers,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Thanks for the links to get assistance!

I tried to change the menu multiple times, however it doesn’t show it at all. I also checked if the menu text was in the same color as the background, but I can’t find the setting for changing the menu font colors.

Usually the demo data is also included in a package, so I was a little bit surprised that it didn’t show anything. Especially when I look at the youtube tutorial. It shows all content once you installed it.

cheers, Rolf

Hi Rolf,

I’m sorry about the demo data thing, but the images are copyright protected so we cannot distribute them. We are only using placeholder images to simulate the setup of the demo.

Now, regarding the other issue, can you open a ticket on our HelpDesk so we can investigate this please?

Best,
Robert
