Is there a way to get the icomoon icons printable? (try print on http://portfoliotheme.org/invent/department/computer-science/ – see the preview – no phone/mail/etc. icons)
I see the issue. Will get back to you on this. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
Hi, This is a question about the breadcrumbs: the breadcrumb tail does not show the category once I am on the detailpage. And if I choose a category from the submenu the breadcrumb tail looses the parent i.e. courses. This goes for News and Courses. Is there a way to adjust this in such a way that it reads home>courses>category x>course y and home>courses>category x. Maybe in breadcrumbs.php?
In breadcrumbs.php, insert the below code at line number 66 -
if (get_post_type() == 'course')
echo get_the_term_list(get_the_ID(), 'course_category', ' ', ', ', ' ' . $delimiter);
Regarding displaying courses in taxonomy/category pages, there is no easy way to accomplish this since in WordPress, a taxonomy can serve multiple custom post types and hence potentially can have multiple parent archives and can serve multiple custom post types. Anyway, if you insert the below code at line number 116 below is_tax() check -
if (is_tax('course_category')) {
$page_id = mo_get_post_type_archive_page_id('course');
if (!empty($page_id)) {
$page_title = get_the_title($page_id);
echo ' <a href="' . get_permalink($page_id) . '" title="' . $page_title . '">' . $page_title . '</a>';
echo ' ' . $delimiter;
}
}
you should be able to accomplish what you desire but it works only for courses and not for others.
BTW, pls post all queries to the forum. I am unable to verify that you have purchased the theme here.
Hi,
Thanks. I will give the next answer while logged in as my client who purchased the theme.
I have requirements from one of my clients (Physician/Doctor) to build an educational website (using wordpress) that will provide online classes/courses (Free and paid), sell products (woocommerce), events/webinars/seminars (free and paid).
some of the missing requirements are restricting access to products/courses/events based on user type (doctor’s clients/physicians/hospitals). For example patients should not be allowed to purchase products, physicians will be able to purchase with special discounts, hospitals will be able to purchase without any discount. also it is required that during registration physicians and hospitals should provide official legimate documents (e.g. physicians will provide their license)
My question is will your theme integrates well with membership plugins such as s2member, MemberPress, or PaidMembershipPro? will i be able to restrict user’s access based on their role? can you give some information regarding how users are stored/created using your theme?
Thanks for your interest. The project looks exciting. We have not tested our theme with the membership plugins but I do not see why it wouldn’t work well with them.
We don’t have a frontend or backend of our own to create users. The method of creating and maintaining a user is same as any other theme, the standard way users are created/maintained in WordPress under Users tab.
Hope this answers your query.
hello, I am planning to buy your theme but Currently having some pre-sales queries 1- the signup functions are configured using WPmail function or SMTP ? if it is with mail function can i add one of the third party plugin that ensure my site to work and send email successfully through your theme because i just finished my last site and the sign up does not work, also the support team does not accept to Re-customize the functions so all my work is useless now so i dont want to be in the same situation again, i want to be sure that your support will help to solve any sign up issue later cos my hosting allows to send and receive emails by only using SMTP. 2- are there any free courses that require just user registration to be showing or for guests 3-is there any free quiz i can add that is actually not related to any of existing courses like financial quiz,skills etc 4-is there a pricing and packages page to display what i have as available pricing in my comany thank u in advance
Thanks for your interest. Most of your queries like signup, user registration for viewing courses and quiz etc. are all related to LearnDash LMS plugin which you need purchase separately. It will be great if you ask their sales/support these queries prior to purchase.
You can check the pricing page here – http://portfoliotheme.org/invent/pricing-info/.
Hi,
I´m alredy using your theme. It’s great!
Where can I find the icon list?
Thanks!
Thanks for choosing our theme. The list is provided in the below page -
http://support.portfoliotheme.org/faqs/how-to-use-1500-icons-bundled-with-the-agile-theme/Hi,
Would there be a way to show some featured courses in a page-section on the homepage? THNX
Yes – expect us to submit an update in next 1-2 days. You will be able to display the selected courses using the course id. Thanks for your interest.
Thanks. It wil be a nice improvement.
The update is ready. Submitting it today. Thanks
The update is ready. Submitting it today. Thanks
Can I reduce the page weight? Let me explain better: I want to remove unnecessary fonts, because icomoon.ttf has 479.5KB, and I suspect my site can reduce its weight by 30-50%. Thanks.
You can generate your own icons using icomoon app – choosing only the ones you need. May need to adjust the CSS so that certain icons being used by the theme are accounted for. Do note that these files are loaded only once for the user during first page visit and then on the browser loads from cache for rest of the pages visited by the user.
Please, update the LiveMesh shortcode, which still displays Gym Features, Fitness Classes, Trainers, Trainers Slider. You promised, about four months, to add a few related to Staff, Courses and even LearnDash. Thanks.
Will submit an update with upgraded livemesh shortcodes. Thanks for your feedback.
We removed the Gym Features, Fitness Classes, Trainers, Trainers Slider items from shortcodes list long time back but unfortunately only the list of shortcodes was not updated. These entries actually do not do anything if you try to insert the shortcode. Have already updated the theme code removing these items from the list.
Let me take a closer look at the other shortcodes like Courses, Staff etc. requested. I have not seen many requests for the same, to be honest with you. But let me check with my support person just to make sure my understanding is right. If there are at least a couple of more requests, I will be happy to add them as part of the update.
I installed the version 1.9 and items are still there.
I understand they are there (have removed from dev code) but these do not work and no shortcode is inserted when you click on these. These shortcodes were never part of the Invent theme itself but the shortcode list contained a dummy reference to them and we had to cleanup the list now. My mistake – we should have cleaned up the list when you first reported them.
Anyway, I am working on the courses, staff etc. shortcodes and you will see an update soon. Thanks.
Update is ready for download – pls refer to documentation for many examples on how to use the shortcodes for inserting courses, staff, LearnDash courses etc. into home page. Pls refer to change log for more details.
I want to import the dummy content on your theme which i have purchase can you tell me how to do it.
I am not able to find the XML files for uploading the dummy content
Its showing maximum uploads 2 mb and file is more than that
Pls talk to your hosting provider to increase the limit in the php.ini file. The location of the XML file is provided in the readme.txt file. Thanks for your purchase.
I am seeing controls on my Chrome on Mac OS X.
Anyway I don’t recommend you using the video_section shortcode for the courses. Pls use native video element for the same -
http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_video.aspThe shortcode is more suited towards using the video as a background for a section.
Hello! I have a pre-sale question: Is your theme compatible with Ubermenu Plugin from Sevenspark?
Yes it is. I see some of our buyers are using UberMenu plugin on their sites. Thanks for your interest.
Thanks for your swift reply. Any chance of sending me link to some of those sites?
Pls have a look at this site – http://www.siouxcityschools.org/.
I’ve installed and activated this theme but all that shows up is a blank front page. Sorry if I’ve gotten this wrong but why would I purchase a theme if I have to build all the componenets from scratch. I’ve purchased other WP themes and apart from fairly extensive tweaking, the theme, once installed and activated, looks much the same as the demo. This one is just blank. Any ideas?
Sorry to hear you are having trouble. Blank home page is something unusual and I am not sure what would cause that. Do refer to this video linked here for steps on replicating the demo site -
http://support.portfoliotheme.org/faqs/invent-theme-how-to-replicate-the-demo-site-in-10-min/If you still have trouble, do send us an email via http://themeforest.net/user/livemesh#contact and include the temp login to your site and we will have the demo site replicated for you.
Hi – I purchased your theme (verision 1.4) in february – I see now that you are on version 1.8, but I never got any emails on available updates, nor does the theme itself (inside wordpress GUI) provide any update link… how do I get the newest version?
You can re-download the theme files which will automatically get you the new version of the theme. You can do that by navigating to the downloads tab in the themeforest.net. You will have to login to the site with your themeforest account. If you want to be notified about the new version release, then just check the “Get notified by email when this item is updated” option in the downloads tab and you will receive email notification from envato.
Thanks for your reply! The version I get when I download it from the downloads tab is from January, so I’m not quite sure if this is the newest…? And even if – how do I install it while the older version is still active in Wordpress?
The date should be July 1st or near to the same since we had an update on July 1st.
You can use the plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades/to upgrade the theme while it is active. Hope you have not made changes in the source files of the existing theme. If you have done so, you will need to repeat the same in the updated theme files.
If you still have trouble getting the latest version from Envato downloads, do send us an email via our contact form http://themeforest.net/user/livemesh#contact and we will send you the updated file.
Overall a nice little theme, but needs a bit of polish if it’s going to compete with the big boys.
I notice the small button code doesn’t work in the demo files I imported, and in your live demo it seems to just show up as a code box: http://portfoliotheme.org/themes/?theme=Invent
Another Feature request would be more control over button style. I should be able to say “background-colour=#ff3355” and have that show up as whatever that random colour I just wrote is. Having it limited to “Green” “red”, etc. is really, well, limiting 
Also, an option on each page to hide the menu (or use an alternative menu) would be stellar. And… I’m having trouble finding the bit to hide the shopping cart. I plan on selling a single course, so having a button that adds to cart and redirects to checkout – I don’t need my user to have a shopping cart in the menu.
[button id="test" "href="#" align="left"]Medium Button[/button]You can change the button background color using the below custom CSS-
#test.button {
background-color: #ff3355;
}
Regarding menu you can choose the page specific header navigation menu in the corresponding page edit window. Pls go through the themedocumentation once.
For hiding cart icon pls have the below custom CSS in themeoptions -
.woocommerce-site .cart-contents {
display: none;
}
Hi there,
we would like to change the url slug for department and course.
For example: at this moment it says: http://portfoliotheme.org/invent/department/mathematics/ We want to change it to http://portfoliotheme.org/invent/services/mathematics/We want to do the same for course as well.
Could you please help us with this. Will really appreciate your help.
'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'department' ),Pls make sure you visit Settings->Permalinks once after you make these changes so that the changes take effect.
Hello. I am interested in this theme, but just wanted to double check. I am 99% sure of the answer, but if i purchase this theme and sell my courses, I will only need to purchase the regular license and not the extended license, Correct? Thanks in advance!
Thanks for your interest. You are right – only a regular license would be required. To sell courses, you may need LMS functions of LearnDash LMS plugin which needs to be purchased separately.
Are we able to customise the colour of the theme to our School colour?
You can change the choose any color you need from a color picker in theme options and the theme color changes accordingly. Thanks for your interest.
How do you add space under the logo in the header?, right now is too close to the edge, thank you.
Pls open a support thread in the support forum – http://support.portfoliotheme.org/forums/forum/invent-theme-support/ and post the site link there so that we can take a closer look. Thanks.
Hello, is it possible to turn this wp theme in one single page responsive ? Thanks
Yes of course it is possible. When you mean single page, what exactly are you looking for? The current home page itself can act as a single page and you can even internal navigation to the sections in the menu. The documentation explains the same and I can provide more insights if you clarify exactly what you are looking for. Thanks.
