Hello, I have Vimeo videos on my portfolio items, and i’m putting the vimeo links directly into Kalium’s portfolio gallery “menu”.
The problem is that they are reproducing in loop and I don’t want this to happen, I would like them to reproduce automaticaly but only once (not in loop).
How can I fix this 2 options? (auto reproduction and No loop)
http://www.jaumellorens.com/portfolio/everything/Thanks!
Hi jaumellorens
I understand the issue, so here I’ve made the fix for you, here is what you need to do:
1. Download this file: http://drops.laborator.co/1b2Oo+
2. Replace it in:
wp-content/themes/kalium/tpls/
It will not “loop” videos anymore.
About auto-reproduction, what do you mean because I am not exactly sure what you say here.
Thanks, it’s fixed now, about the auto-reproduction I meant when the video reproduces automaticly when you enter a page, but I don’t need it now, so no problem.
But It would be nice in the future to have a menu or something to change the Vimeo video behavior inside wordpress or kalium tools.
Thanks.
Hi
Glad to hear that. Yes we will add the feature to “autoplay” videos and enable looping of the videos for each of them individually.
On line 275 of the file I’ve sent you can enable this feature setting “autoplay”: true in this part of code:
<video src="" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" controls preload="auto" width="auto" height="auto" data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["vimeo"], "src": "<?php echo esc_url( $video_url ); ?>", "loop": false, "autoplay": false }'></video>
The new code:
<video src="" class="video-js vjs-default-skin" controls preload="auto" width="auto" height="auto" data-setup='{ "techOrder": ["vimeo"], "src": "<?php echo esc_url( $video_url ); ?>", "loop": false, "autoplay": true }'></video>
Next time we will add this functionality directly in admin panel so you don’t need to hard code.
Hello,
I added a blog-post-element via visual composer, you can see at:
http://ritualmallorca.com/prueba/?page_id=4319And I can’t find how to customize the hover color of the thumbnail. I want it to be this color #aabecc
I found a similar case of another user but i don’t understand where do i have to write the color code. Would you mind to pass me the css code?
Thank you Cecilia
Hi Cecilia,
That can be done from the Theme Options > Theme Styling > Custom Skin Builder, or you can do it only for that hover with CSS.
Can you please add the code below to WP Dashboard > Custom CSS
.wpb_wrapper .lab-blog-posts .blog-post-entry .blog-post-image a .hover-display {
background-color: red !important;
}
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
Hello, I didn’t mean the image hover. I meant the hover on the blog title which remains your main green even that I’ve changed the custom skin on theme styling. How can I change it? Thank you!! Cecilia
Thank you!!! Perfect!!!
Dear Laborator Team, I am looking for a appropriate Theme for my new first professional website and really like the technical up-to-dateness and the simple design of your Kalium theme. But I really would like to know if there are plans for an horizontal portfilio like in this Theme? (http://inthe.me/demo/fluxus/portfolio/)
I like horizontal portfolios because you can slide pictures like walking in a museum and you can presentate them with the same hight in one line, which looks very elegant. Also it is nice to use the scroll wheel or the the arrow-keys.
If this could be possible to see in your next releases, I have to more reasons, not to buy this theme.
Kind regards, Max.
Thanks for you quick answer, Yilli. But due to the fact, that I found no other theme, that brings so much options for my ambitions, I likely will buy it anyway.
Kind Regards, Max. 
http://lnx.woodandmood.com
below the revolution slider it’s a selection of items from the shop. The pictures are like hidden and have no idea why.
Check here http://lnx.woodandmood.com/shop/
I have really no idea of what happened, I spent the last hour trying to understand the problem.
1. I reapplyed the permessions on the file in the server. nothing has changed
2. I backed up the theme settings and rolled back to the default settings. Nothing has changed. I restored the previous saved settings
3. I run the thumbnail resize plugin to resize all the images.
Non of these steps took me to a solution
I have no idea of what I did. Inspecting the source code, look like there is no “src” attribute to the img tag, there is just a “data-src” attribute.
Any idea of what I did wrong? I think it’s kinda impossible that this is a bug appeared from nowhere.
I got it!
The plugin “WooCommerce Menu Extension” breaks the Kalium theme.
I wanted to have a search box in the header menu, so I undestood I needed the woocommerce plugin. If I add a search box and the kalium Main menu type is set to “Full Background Menu” OR “Standard menu”, the shop, the portfolio and the blog pages simply do no show anymore any picture.
proof http://imgur.com/a/0g85g
If I use “Top Menu” or “Sidebar menu” the problem is not triggered.
So, any idea on how to setup a shop search box in the menu without breaking the theme? It could be even below the menu and in the header.
It’s ok, I’m glad that you understood the “problem”, even if is not really a problem of the theme.
Cheers 
Hi Guys, I need to style contact form 7 like your ajax form. I see that other clients ask for same question, can you provide me styles to add on my css ? Thanks
Hi Art, my site is in a staging server and is not accessible. The goal is simply put a cf7 shortcode at the bottom of http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/main/contact/ and make it look like your ajax form. Is sufficient the markup to put in the cf7 backend and the classes to add in the css. cf7 is a standard tool for “professionals”
Thanks and greetings for this well-coded and beautifoul theme
Hi, the site is on-line, I need to style the CF7 form now. Where can I send you the link in private ? Thanks

Hi
I’ve just purchased your theme for use by one of my clients and was wondering if there is a form plugin that works well with your theme. My preference would be for Ninja forms as I want to include a form with Capatcha on some of the portfolio pages and the Ajax form doesn’t facilitate the Capatcha. Can you advise.

Hi Arlind
Is there a capatcha that works with the existing Ajax Form, if so can this in some way be enabled?

Hide placeholder when no Featured Image?
Hi, This related to Blog in list mode. Is it possible to hide the empty featured image square? In the case there is no featured image.
br. H.
Hi HannuT,
Hmm can you please add the code below to Custom CSS
.box-holder .image-placeholder, .box-holder .default-thumbnail-placeholder {
display: none !important;
}
.box-holder.has-featurd-image .image-placeholder {
display: block !important;
}
- maybe it will work work for you.
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
Sorry, no This was too powerful… It made all the thumbnails and post images disappear. Not only on the blog list but also in the single post.
Sorry, no. Code made all the images disappear. Both in the Blog list and in the single post. So way too powerful 
OK. but as a workaround: how do I change the placeholder color (or remove the palceholder completely) so it would not be visible event it is still there?
Lets make it same as site background (in my case white) so it is not visible.
Hi Actually right code seems to be: .blog-holder .box-holder .post-format .thumb .default-thumbnail-placeholder { background-color: #fff !important; }
Yep. Everythig is ok. Thanks.
I have a problem with the portfolio, it only shows 12 items, and doesn’t have pagination.
I solved it, I changed the Portfolio page included in the architecture demo
I want to use a Web font from typography.com. They say that I need to include this line within the <head> element of your web pages:
<link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”//cloud.typography.com/7581874/659508/css/fonts.css” />
Can you tell me how to use typography.com webfonts? I tried to add it from Typography, but in the link I entered http://cloud.typography.com/7581874/659508/css/fonts.css and it doesnt seem to work
Please help!
Hi
In order to install custom typography (in your case css import) it is simple in our theme, go to Theme Options > Typography:
Then paste the CSS url to “Primary font URL” and/or “Heading font URL”
http://drops.laborator.co/oBKNote that you need also to provide the font name specified in CSS, as shown in Screenshot.
Hopefully you can manage to set it up.
That worked, but I had to enter the name like this, not like your screenshot: font-family: “Gotham A”, “Gotham B”;
issue resolved, thanks!
Hello, I am trying to change the logo on my website www.2net.gr/polar but I can’t seem to change the logo, it shows my own logo for a few seconds then switches to this K default logo.
Can you please tell me how to change it?
Hi 2net
Please login to your admin panel, go to Revolution Slider and click Settings button (wrench icon) for homepage slider.
Go to the end of that edit page, you will see “Custom JavaScript”, delete it and click Save Settings as shown this screenshot below:
http://drops.laborator.co/11DiHOk that solved it, is there a way so that this logo is NOT visible only on the home page, but to be visible on every other page?
issue resolved, thanks!
Hello!
I wanted to delete the background of the footer and the space there. I would like the footer text to be ON the image that i placed in the homepage (i placed the image with the “single image” thing). My website is: http://chelseavandenberg.com/ so you can check it! It’s that white footer space that annoys me, so if you can tell me how to erase it i’ll be absolutely thankful!!!
Thank you very much!!!
Chelsea
Hello Ylli! Thanks for your quick reply! Unfortunately that didn’t work ): Is it impossible to delete that white space then?
And another question, i have the classic Kalium demo installed. And when editting the theme options, on portfolio section, i like the “background hover” effect but there’s no way that “eye” icon goes away. I would like it to be plain without the eye logo. How can i take it out?
Thanks again : )
Chelsea
Hi Chelsea,
The code that i gave you earlier works, jut make sure that you paste the code that i gave you on the WP Dashboard > Custom CSS.
1—To remove footer on home use this CSS code:
body.home .footer-spacer {
display: none !Important;
}
.has-fixed-footer .wrapper {
padding-bottom: 0px !Important;
}
2— Can you please add the code below to Custom CSS
.portfolio-holder .product-box .photo .on-hover i {
display: none !important;
}
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
Hi Ylli!
I tried the code you gave me yesterday and the code you have just given me for the footer white background disappearing but nothing happened. I placed the code you gave me in the Custom Css place… Just as I did with the portfolio hover thing which indeed has worked.
I also have a question about order in portfolio. How can I change the order of appearance of the projects when seeing the principal portfolio page with the thumbnails? (http://chelseavandenberg.com/portfolio-2) I want to place first the one in the second column and there’s no way I can find how to do that :/
Thank you for the assistance.
Chelsea
Hi Chelsea,
1— The code should work for you, but please make sure that you haven’t forgot any bracket { } open.
2— You can use Post Types Order plugin to do that 
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
Hi Ylli!
1. Yeah I pasted it just as i copied it… No brackets forgotten but still it isn’t working. But nevermind.
2. Super nice!
Thank you again!
Chelsea
Hi Ylli!!

Thank you again!

hi.
is it possible to add submenues (links, etc. to subsites) to the agency layout and is it possible to mix elements from the different layouts in one? for example a about me section under the headline of the agency?
thanks for infos tom
Hi Laborator,
I’m working very well with your theme and I really love it. I have a question about portfolio settings. I hope I can explain properly my problem:
For my customer I need to set 4 different categories and all of these have sub-categories such as as follow:
Interior design (main category) - Hotel (sub) - Showroom (sub) - House (sub) - etc.
Industrial design (main category) - Living Room (sub) - Bedroom (sub) - Kitchen (sub) - Bath (sub) - etc.
Art (main category) - Exhibit (sub) - Graphic Design (sub) - Virtual Image (sub)
Architecture (main category)
This is my categories structure. For each categories the menu of the portfolio (Filter menu) should be composed with the subcategories as as follow:
Interior Design -> All – Hotel (filter 1) – Showroom (filter 2) – House (filter 3) – etc.
This is very important for him because all works could be navigate properly and easly from the website user.
I hope you have a solution and I hope you don’t tell me that is impossible or to use a third party plugin! 
Please help me to find a solution! 
Very kindly regards.
Simone.
Hi Simone
This is common request and I have added it to our todo list. This will be implemented in v1.8 or at the latest in v1.9, because we are working in an important update which will be available in a week.
So I kindly ask you to wait for a while (not even a month) before this feature will be implemented in Kalium.
Hi Laborator,
thanky you for your reply! If this update coming up in the next month for me it’s ok, in this moment I’m using the Custom Query for divide the categories, you can see the result here: http://www.cooldesign.it/demo-server/castigliaassociati/industrial-design/
To do this I don’t have main categories and sub categories but whole categories as main. For the moment it’s good because in the future I’ve to make, for example, to Bath category yours subcategories such as year of production, brand name and much more. Do you think in the future will be difficult to setting up the portfolio properly with the new implementations?
I’m waiting with patience and a comment for you is: one of the best theme that I ever bought in Envato Market, 5 stars for you! With this upadating I think your theme wolud worth 6 stars! The best one. 
Kindly regards.
Simone.
Only a suggestion: consider to show in a portfolio page a “Title – subtitle” instead of “Title – Categories”, or both! 
Cheers.
Simone.
Hi Simone
Firstly thank you so much for your kind words, we are really glad to have you as a client.
The implementation of Portfolio sub-category system will not be difficult to activate, in fact you will have to activate it in theme options, thats all (and organize categories).
As for your suggestion, thats in our todo list as well. We are going to provide both features in the same time of the update.
Many thanks
Oh no… I think i’ve deleted some of the demo content pages for the shop. How can I install the demo-page ‘Shop with sidebar right’ easily without starting over?
it was already enabled… but it’s only showing it if I go into a deeper catagory level… I want a ‘starting shop-page’, where you can find different products and are able to see the sidebar with categories… i guess that’s not possible? i’ve not added the ‘widgetized sidebar’ onto it, but it looks a bit off.
Hi there,
Normally it should be showed in the shop page after you’ve set these settings, if you’ve set the shop page with Visual Composer then it must have the Widgetized Sidebar too.
Can you please send us your site URL first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution

Hello. I have installed the theme and have two bugs that need addressing:
- I have uploaded our logo – but the default white arch logo still shows on the home page?
- I’ve set up a team page as per the documentation but the template option on the right only shows portfolio. there is no “Team Page”
How do we fix these? lee
Hi lee,
1— That logo it’s on Revolution Slider, by watching this video, you can learn how to remove that. (video is made with the last version of RS, but i think that you will not have problem to find that place on the new layout)
2— Can you please try to be very specific about the problem and explain it more to us, in this way we can easily understand you and give you the proper answer 
Kind Regards,
—Ylli
1 – fixed 2 – I have followed your documentation to create a “TEAM” page.
“Creating the page for your company team is really easy, let’s start by creating a new page at Pages > Add New and name it Team, on the right sidebar set the Template to Team Page.”
— This can’t be done as the right sidebar doesn’t have a template option for “Team Page”.
I am using the “architecture” style template. lee
Hi there,
We are sorry, that part of documentation is a bit old and doesn’t match with the current theme options, here is a video tutorial that explains how to create the team page:

Hi guys,
Yesterday I migrated the website to another server of another hosting company. Now I can’t change my theme options anymore, it keeps giving me an error.
I’ve checked the PHP settings at the hosting company, should be ok. Just the max execution time is 30.
Please help!! Deadline is tomorrow!!

Hierarchical Portfolio?
Is it possible to show hierarchical portfolio with Kalium? What I mean is that “All” would show only top level portfolios instead of all.
Now if I have e.g. photo portfolio “Landscapes”, “Persons” and “Pets” and several sub galleries under each current “all” becomes a mess and too large.
So I would like to have only few top level Categories visible.
Hi
Actually this is not supported. But we are going to implement similar option in the next updates of this theme. What I mean here is for the “chosen query” of portfolio items to only display categories of those items. So on this case you can create custom portfolio items query (page template Portfolio Page): http://drops.laborator.co/1guEw
For example if in total there are 4 categories: Art, Photos, Print, Design and you choose only to show items from Photos and Print, then there will be these filtering links:
All – Photos – Print
I guess this is what you want to achieve?
If so this is going to be available in the next update.
If I get your meaning right I would say yes…
All = only top(parent) categories e.g. “Studio Photos”, “Landscape”, “People”. Click “Studio Photos” and you would see sub categories food, pets and products
Studio Photos; Studio Photos – Food; Studio Photos – Pets; Studio Photos – Products;
Landscapes; Landscapes – Mountains; Landscapes – Lakes; Landscapes – Rivers;
People; People – Weddings; People – John 50y; People – Portraits; People – Boudoir; People – Kids
And so on…
Looking forward to this
This is quite standard behavior in any photo gallery… and yes I could install some gallery plugin but I like to look and feel of the Portfolio. In addition I try to avoid extra plugins as they may mess up the template.
We will add this feature soon, stay tuned by checking our theme changelogs 
Hello, is it possible to use the Masonry style portfolio but with visible titles, and can I remove the “eye” completely? I just want it to have a slight transparency on hover.
Thanks!
Hi aerialis
Yes this is possible, see this screenshot:
http://drops.laborator.co/1lCHOTo apply small transparency on hover choose “Apply Transparency” option on that fields block.
To make change the opacity of that layer simply add this custom CSS with your own parameter of opacity which currently is 0.9:
.portfolio-holder .product-box .photo:hover .on-hover {
opacity: 0.9;
}
Hopefully this will help you.
Thanks, the site address is http://www.justinlau.ca/ .
One more, on individual portfolio pages, is it possible to make a layout like this: http://news.nike.com/news/nike-tech-craft-volt-collection
Specifically, the title at the top, then a full-width slider, and below that the centered layout but with alternating photos and text? I could only add text as quotes, not as body type paragraphs.
Thanks! -Justin
Hi Justin
This is a common request from Kalium users so we have decided it implement it in the next update, a portfolio item to have “Full width” featured, and so then use Visual Composer to build their preferred Layout of portfolio item.
This will take a while to develop so please stay tuned with theme updates we will specify this feature in changelog.
Best regards
hi there, I added a portfolio page /portfolio and some portfolio items. They displayed initially but now have disappeared and I’m pulling my hair out trying to find out what has changed to make them disappear. I can view the individual
I have read some of previous support comments and I don’t have jetpack installed, I have followed the portfolio page template option.
Struggling and hoping you can help!

Hello Laborator Team,
I just launched the Beta version of my site last night, www.jcloewe.com. When clicking the header tab Portfolio my users are seeing a 404 error. The tab link is set to the page “Portfolio” (under Appearance>Menus), a page I can’t even find in my WP admin, http://www.jcloewe.com/?page_id=3283 . If I try to reach this page directly within another browser directly I get a 404. I can only reach the page if I’m logged in to my WP admin.
My permalinks are set to “Post Name.”
Please help with a solution, and I’d also like to know where the “Portfolio” page lives because I can’t find it through my WP admin.
Thank you, J.C. Loewe
Hi J.C. Loewe
Firstly I would like to thank you for your rating and brilliant comments!
The reason I believe that stands behind the portfolio link error page is because is set as “Custom Link” which remains doesn’t update with the Permalinks structure.
I suggest you to go again in Appearance > Menus, and delete the existing Portfolio link item, then add again from the “Pages” section.
Also make sure that Portfolio page is not Private post, because that will not allow users to access that page without sufficient permissions.
If you can’t handle this, I can take a look and find the fix for you.
Best regards
Thank you,
Such a simple solution. After removing “Portfolio” from the menu structure and then re-adding it from the “Pages” section not only made it visible from my testing browsers, but I can also see the page in my WP Admin (which was not possible before).
This must be yet another issue with the WP permalinks structures.
Thanks! J.C. Loewe
You’re welcome Loewe
