Hi Lubos!

I need to set these value for the menu header: width:100% padding: 0 3%

I’m having a serious hard time to achieve that because the main container is part of the header.

I’ve tried multiple possibilities and can’t get it to work so I wanna know if you have a clue.

I’ve tried to give the container the values of 100% and 0 3% padding but when it comes to other sections of the page like the services, the padding is not right.

If I’m right, the Fullwidth of your theme is 1170px and not 100% right?

The row settings seems messy because I’m trying to have a row full width (100%) with a padding of 0 3% and there’s always a left:15px that makes thins not centered.

Any clue on how to achieve a fullwidth design with bluecollar?

Thanks Lubos

Hummm! I think I’ve figured it out! Changed the container class in header.php and gave values of 100% 0 3% padding. Placed the modified header.php inside child theme folder. Seems good!

Need to figure out now the parallax and services page to get same properties.

Hi,

please sketch some screenshot or something because I have no idea what are you trying to achieve.

Is woocommerce integrated with this theme ?

Hi,

it is not.

Lubos

Thanks for prompt reply.. Is there anyway I can integrate payment gateway with this site ?

I mean you can integrate a WooCommerce plugin, but it will require a bit of coding. There are tutorials for that. But there is no special styling or anything like that.

The Services feature of the theme is (not) compatible with WPBakery Visual Composer. Why is that? When I upload images they are not responsive. Is there something I need to do or can you update the theme to make the Services Feature section compatible with WPBakery Visual Composer?

How do I do that?

Try to add this to Custom CSS:

img { height: auto; }

Thank you sir.

do have an html version for the same template?

I saw the comment that we are not able to edit the services page. This is a real issue. I made a new page and called it ‘our-services’ and had the main menu link to that and then left the sub-menu items under service, but that is very in-elegant. Would really much rather be able to edit the service page. Or allow the new page I made have the slug of service. Thanks.

Hi,

there is a default Service list page which, as you’ve said, cannot be edited. But you can go to Theme Options / Services and change its slug from “services” to anything else. Then you will be able to create a new page with “services” slug and use Services element in Visual Composer to add services list and edit the rest of the page as you like.

Despite having VC set to work in Posts for some reason our site will not provide the VC button to allow us to switch between Classic or Backend editing on blog posts.

Any idea if this has any relation to the template? Personally I cant see why it would being in the admin section, but thought it was worth asking… TIA.

It seems Yoast SEO is the culprit plugin. But only when in conjunction with bluecollar theme, I’ve never had it with any other theme before. I’ll leave it disabled for now…

There seems to be a couple of instances of problems with compatibility going back to August 2015: https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo

Good to know, I will take a look at it soon

Hello, i have updated the theme to the last version, gives me the following error: WP Visual Composer Installed version: 4.6 Available version: 4.7.2

In your update log says: v1.2.1 Updated Visual Composer to 4.7.2 Various small fixes

Please help me, thanks

Hi,

try to deactivate and remove the current version of Visual Composer. Then you should be prompted to install it again and the latest version will be installed.

Lubos

Works! Thanks Lubos

Any plans to support WooCommerce with this theme yet? We’ve installed it to see how it fits right now, and its not great. Page formatting is quite poor, and obviously the styles dont work. If you have no plans I guess we will have to work on it ourselves, but it would be nice to find out before we put time into it… TIA

Hi,

there are no plans for that but it should work with little bit of coding. Follow this tutorial. When you make that copy of page.php, remove lines 26 and 3 and replace “the_content()” with “woocommerce_content()”.

How can you change the order of the services on homepage? (plumbing, painting, ......)

Hi,

you can do that by changing publish date for each service (in right sidebar when you editing a service). Most recent comes first. But it will work only if you switch off Alphabetical Sorting under Theme Options / Services

Lubos

On the homepage you have different services (eg heating, plumbing, painting…) and an icon (which can be turned off in back-office), but how can you make sure that the title on the images disapears?

Or is it possible that the title is shown in bottom of the picture with a boxed background color ?

Friendly regards,

Try this:

.c-service .service-title { background-color: #00a8e5; }

yes, but I want the title and bg color on the bottom of the image, now it’s in the middle like this example: online-bakker.be/services-info.jpg

How can I do that?

Thx

Try this:

.c-service .service-header > div > div > div { vertical-align: bottom; }

service settings appear blank, cant interact

Please try to raise your memory limit to 128mb. Let me know if it helped.

just tried that, no success

Try to disable all plugins except Redux Framework and LSVR Toolkit just to see if there will still be a blank space

services is not working with Visual Composer. LSVR Toolkit causing intermittent errors about connecting to wp .org as well

resolved by also selected post in VC, thanks to other user in comments

Hi,

if you want to use VC in services, go to Visual Composer / General Settings and check lsvrservice under Content types.

Error with wp.org can be cause by low memory.

Hello, is their a way I can change the colour of the H1,H2 etc headings please…...

Hi, is their a way you can remove the small underline that comes under the H2 heading

Thanks for the reply on the colours too

Ad font: please see Theme Options / Typography

Ad underline: use this Custom CSS:

h2:after { display: none; }

In the footer it’s possible to make 4 columns, but if I want 6 columns, what do I have to do? If you put 6 widgets in footer bottom panel, 2 columsn are under the other 4, but I want 6 next to another.

Hi,

you can try to open includes/redux/options-config.php file, go to line 671 and change 4 to 6. Now you will be able to set the number of columns to 6 in Theme Options. But I can’t guarantee you that it won’t break your layout, especially on smaller screens.

Lubos

great, thx

great, thx

I keep getting this error when uploading demo “Failed to import “Pricing”: Invalid post type tablepress_table”

Hi,

that’s ok. It means that you don’t have TablePress plugin installed, (there are some tables in demo created with it) but that’s optional. Everything else was imported correctly.

Hello I have purchase this theme, which is great, but I would like to change the footer background from black to another colour? Please could you help Thanks Jen

Hi,

use this custom CSS:

.footer-inner {
    background-color: #000000;
}

Just replace #000000 with hex code of your desired color.

Great theme, great value for money ! I have a question about services on the frontpage, how can i change the order of the tiles ?

No tips ? maybe my question isn’t clear i’ve made the website, but i would like the service tiles to be in a different order, how do i do this ?

never mind, just found the solution on another website…

Hello,

I am really sorry but I’ve somehow missed your first comment. So do you still need help with it?

Lubos

Dear Sirs,

We have tried to create a Slider same as on the Home 3 of http://themeforest.net/item/blue-collar-handyman-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/10406508 but, unfortunately, we don’t know how to make this.

Could you please help us find the solution?

We have find something but cannot do it properly, for example how to get all the fonts and texts as seen on your Slider (Demo Template). What we have done so far, could be seen at http://www.zaf.hr

Thank you very much in advance for any help you can provide.

Kindest regards

Hi,

you need to use Headings in your sliders. You may also want to enable Visual Composer for slides under Visual Composer / General Settings / Content types – check “lsvrslide”.

Or you can switch to HTML (Text) mode and paste the following code. Then switch back to visual and edit:

<div class="row ">
<div class="col-md-6">
<h1>Plumbing. Painting.
<strong>Anything!</strong></h1>
</div>
<div class="col-md-6">
<h3>Over<strong> 25 Years of Experience</strong> in Home Maintenance Business with Hundreds of Happy Customers</h3>
The copy warned the Little Blind Text, that where it came from it would have been rewritten a thousand times and everything that was left from its origin would be.
<hr class="c-separator m-transparent m-size-default">
<p><a class="c-button m-size-large m-color-1" href="#">Let's Get the Job Done!</a></p>
</div>
</div>

BTW the fastest way to make demo look is to import demo data, but since you’ve already added your content I wouldn’t recommend it in this situation.
