Hi,

I have some difficulties with the wrapper on a site using Kalium theme: http://ur-eksperten.dk The wrapper jumps around on small screen ex on my 13”. I can’t seem to fix the problem in the custom css – so maybe it’s a theme weakness?

Hope you can help.

Best regards Pernille from Copenhagen

Hi Pernille,

That’s not a bug or a “weakness” it is the built in style which the theme inherits from the Bootstrap grid options, it has four style breakdowns, so you cannot disabled it.

Hello

Yesterday i added this plugin to the kalium theme, http://codecanyon.net/item/parallax-one-page-builder-wordpress-plugin-/7255495

and suddenly the menu started scrambling, www.prideofmartakla1.com

is there any solution for this?

Regards Mahmoud

Any recommendation for a parallax page builder plugin that is supported by the theme?

Hi there,

We have a parallax feature built in our theme, you can try that to see if it works.

Kind Regards,
Art

Alright, Much appreciated

I recently bought, installed and imported the demo content of your theme Kalium onto a new site TheScholarist.com. However, there seems to be a severe difference in functionality and look. For example, I cannot see the about author field in the sidebar, nor in posts. I also cannot see any feature to enable the instagram posts to show at the sidebar or footer.

Hi there,

Are you sure you’ve imported all the styles and theme options?

Can you please send us your WP credentials on email? We need to investigate your problem and then get back to you with possible solution.

To send us email use this link and please write us your request again, because we receive a lot of emails on daily basis and we unfortunately can’t remember all customers requests.

Hi there, I seem to have a problem with text-decoration on links. I would like to see how it works without the underlined text and I’ve tried them all on every CSS but the underline is always there!

Can you please tell me a way to sort this out?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Can you please add the code below to Custom CSS

.wrapper a:after, footer.main-footer a:after {
    background-color: transparent !important;
}

That will do the trick :)

Many many many thanks! Now that’s what I mean!

You’re welcome :)

Hello author,

I have two questions:

1) My shoppingpage shows the following comment (in Dutch):

SKU: Niet beschikbaar Categorie: …

How can I remove this remark?

2) Woocommerce is partly translated into Dutch. There are still some English words, f.i.: Your cart is empty! Go shopping » Subtotal View cart checkout

How can I change these words into Dutch?

Thank you in advance for your reply!

Kind regards,

Ellen

Hi Ellen,

1— Can you please write URL of this exact page here on comments first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you if we have possible solution.

2— To translate/rename theme strings, you can do this via Loco Translate plugin. If you don’t have this plugin, please install and activate it in your WordPress site.

1. Then go to Loco Translate > Manage Translations

2. Click “New Language” for the current active theme (if you didn’t created it yet, otherwise ignore this step). On the new language page, choose these options – click here http://d.pr/i/1ewoc

3. After that you will be redirected to the editing screen for theme translations. Before you continue make sure this is true – click here http://d.pr/i/18h0w

4. Follow these instructions to learn how to translate strings – http://d.pr/i/1jsek

5. The changes will be applied immediately – http://d.pr/i/1ju6w

Note: Translation files will be saved to wp-content/themes/{theme-name}/languages folder. Here you have the explanation – http://d.pr/i/1lBCJ

After you make your changes, always save a backup when there is new theme update. After you update the theme (languages folder will be replaced), just move the backup files you previously saved to the same languages directory and your changes will still be applied.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hello Ylli,

Thank you for your reply.

1) The remark ‘SKU: niet beschikbaar’ means in English: ‘SKU: not available’. The words ‘niet beschikbaar’ appair because I didn’t fill in the SKU field (see: products/product data/general/SKU). Maybe it is possible to put or remove a checkmark in Woocommerce (to leave out ‘SKU’)? Or maybe I have to go to Custom CSS and fill in some sentence?

2) I’ve just installed ‘Logo Translate’. Thank you. For me it’s not clear how I can upload “new” words for translation (into Dutch). For instance: your cart is empty.

Kind regards.

Hi there,

we get the following error message when sending a text through our contact form:

“Invalid token, your message couldn’t be sent!”

The URL to test it is http://stilbox-studios.com/kontakt/

Do we have to configure something to make it happen?

Kind Regards, Marcel

Hi Marcel

Oh sorry about this, it was a bug in our theme so here is how you can fix it:

1. Download this file: http://drops.laborator.co/bBq4+

2. Replace it in this directory: wp-content/themes/kalium/inc/lib/vc/lab_contact_form/

Then copy the code below:

add_filter( 'lab_contact_form_skip_verification', '__return_true' );

Add it to functions.php (end of file). You should save this line of code, when you update them you should paste that line of code in functions.php (in case you are not using Kalium child theme).

Make sure to clean cache if you are using any caching plugin inside WordPress.

Best regards

I’m using portfolio template for two pages in my site. I’m having a trouble because I want one of them without categories and the other with categories but I couldn’t find out how to change this setting in different pages.

Hi Tania,

Add this to the Custom CSS to hide the filtering:

.home .portfolio-title-holder {
display: none !important;
}

Kind Regards,
Art

Perfect! It worked. Thank you very much.

Tania

Hi Tiana,

Glad to hear that :)

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) :)

Hello, First of all, great theme!

I’ve been exploring it since a week, most of it it’s straight forward!

I’m planning to use carousels to feature products in a page. I’ve noticed that you’ve been using slick.js in your demo, but I don’t see where to find it in the theme.

+

How should I create a list of product for carousel? does it surface handpicked products, a list by tag or category. Thanks.

Hi there,

To select the elements you want to display in any page simply add the Products Carousel in any page (via Visual Composer) but first make sure you’ve installed WooCommerce otherwise it won’t show.

After you’ve selected it, in the new window there will show a button Build query, click that and in the Taxonomies field you can type the categories you want to filter.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi, Your theme is amazing.

We have purchased the theme 2 weeks ago. Purchase code: e45585be-c659-47c3-9eb1-e75e5536f9f5

Trying to set up our page we have deleted home from the menu, thinking that was a cuplicate version of portfolio, buy we would like it to bring it back since Home contain the moving sentence at the top (“Clear thinking…”). If you try to add a new menu does not come the option to add Home.

With many thanks and regards,

M

Hi M

If you want to add home menu item, go to Settings > Reading and set your page that you have created as homepage:

http://drops.laborator.co/15IUu

Then when you add it to menu item it will show the root url of your site.

I hope I understood you clearly.


Arlind

Hi Arlind, Thanks for your fast response. I had this options already as you described, and still i cannot bring back the home menu. The home menu is the one containing the changing text:(“Clear thinking…”).Actually are interested in recover that feature. Please help us as soon as you can.

Just downloaded the Kalium theme and trying to install it locally on my desktop through the Wordpress dashboard. Getting a message saying “are you sure you want to do this” when trying to install the “kalium.zip” file. It won’t allow going any further.

Any ideas on that? Am I missing something?? Completely new to Wordpress and this is already proving tricky and frustrating to assess whether to move forward.

Any help much appreciated!

Best, Garry.

Hi Garry

Sorry to hear this.

This is mostly related to PHP configuration at your host, basically your host won’t allow to upload files more than 32MB and so Kalium has the size of around 37 MB thats why this happens.

We have our recommendations of PHP configuration limits to set for your host, which can you read here:

http://documentation.laborator.co/kb/general/recommended-php-configuration-limits/

Note that in the new version of Kalium we are going to decrease the size of installable file at least for 45% less, it should be around 20MB large, so you won’t have any issues in the future.

For now, just increase the values suggested in documentation article, or ask your host to do that so you can continue with installation.

If your host does not support it, I will try to find another alternative for you.

Best regards

Hi !

I have to questions :

I’ve put a full weight map before the footer and there is a white space in between. Is it possible to take it off?

A much bigger problem that I have is that I would like a sticky header but with a change of the logo when we scroll. Also I would like the background of the header to change when we scroll (from transparent to a color).

Last thing : is it possible to take off the menu (for a one page website) ?

Thanks !

Hi there,

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

You can manage the Sticky Menu and it’s background in Laborator > Theme Options > Header just make sure you’ve checked and tested all the options, it’s really easy to use.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi ! The problem is that I have the coming soon mode on. So you’ll not be able to see anything. I can put some screenshot if needed. I know about the sticky menu, the problem is I cannot have a change on the logo on scroll. Or a modification of the background on scroll.

Hi, Is it possible to set, at the home page, the menu as a sticky menu that ath first doesn’t show because it is under the slider wich covers the 100% height of the browser? Something like this page: www.ramonesteve.com Thanks

Hi there,

Currently this is not possible, we will look up and see if this will be added as a new feature in the theme.

Kind Regards,
Art

Thanks for your answer. Do you offer custom design to introduce this feature? I suppose that it can be introduced, but I prefer to be done by the original design team. Let me know if it could be possible.

Hi there,

Unfortunately we are not available for extra customizations and freelance work.

Problem using any of the icon galleries, tried to look for info on the forum wall but couldn’t manage to get a solution.

Icons set by default on site won’t show, (Back to Portfolio little squares, Arrows on mobile display, social icons on footer..)

Plus we trying to set new ones up, normally they show up fine on VC but wont show when page gets published…

How can I install or relink the actual icon files.

I working on localhost for the moment, might that be the issue?

Thanks and congrats for a great theme!

Hi xavifaus

Is it possible to send me a screenshot from the backend and frontend of your current issue?

If you are using custom plugin that create icon packs, then try disabling it and see if it solves the problem.

Thank you for your kind words!

Hello

Is there a one page parallax available?

Regards

Hi there,

I see there is no parallax demo currently available, it is a feature implemented in the Visual Composer so you can implement it on your own until we add a parallax page.

Dear Author

I’m a designer developing a homepage for a designer colleague. My colleague have recently bought your web page theme and she has just received a link to download the web page. But as it is me who’s going to develop the web page, should she send the link to me, so that I can download it on my computer? Or can it be downloaded on both my laptop and my colleagues computer?

Kind regards Sofie Linnebjerg

ups, forgot to activate an auto mail reply. Please write to sofielinnebjerg@gmail.com

Hi Sofie,

If you’re colleague has bought the item as a registered user then simply tell him to login into ThemeForest and then go to the Downloads section, there he will find the item but keep in mind that your friend needs to be logged in with that account.

Regarding these problems please contact Envato directly, they have to know about these issues if there is any issue with the processing.

Hey Guys, I have a problem with the Kalium Portfolio Carousel, It will only display the first image, the rest just don’t appear, even tho you can click the arrows back and forth.

The page I’m having trouble with is http://www.scambo.co.uk/portfolio/save-the-date/

Hi scambo1977,

Can you please add the code below to Custom CSS

.single-portfolio-holder .gallery .photo {
    float:left !important;
}

P.S: This will be fixed automatically when we release Kalium 1.8 this week :)

When the update it’s ready you will receive an email if you have enabled “Get notified by email if this item is updated” from your Downloads tab.

(view large version)

Then you can update your theme through Envato Toolkit Plugin (more info) :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli
