I have a number of multi-page pdfs I’ve used as samples of print pieces on my site. Can I use these, or do I have to upload pages (of a brochure, for example) individually?

Hi there,

I don’t know if I understood you question right, the PDF files cannot be previewed with the theme, you can only upload them and set to view in PDF Viewer or download them directly.

Hello - I just updated the Kalium theme to the latest version and noticed that the homepage no longer loads a few of my portfolio items at the bottom. There are about 3-5 missing I believe. The site is www.bfdesign.ca – any thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks!

Hi bgfrancey

Can you please send me your WP credentials + FTP and also tell me which of your items are being disappeared.

Hi Arlind – actually, I figured out the issue so it’s all working now. I just had to adjust how many items were showing up on a page (I’m assuming this was a new addition to the theme?). Thanks for your response.

Hi bgfrancey,

Hmm no this was a feature that we introduced earlier, anyway nice to hear that the problem is now solved :)

Hi, I just updated the theme to v 1.8, and some of the settings changed. The only problem that I didn’t manage to fix is the footer from the Home Page, I can’t get it to be full hidden. This is the home page: http://arhmihaisava.ro/

Hi arhmihaisava

We have added a new option now, for the users who don’t want the bottom space.

Just go to that page where you want to remove bottom margins, and then follow this procedure below:

(view large version)

So to the section “No Bottom Margin” just click Yes and that row will not have bottom margins :)


Arlind

That was simple, thanks!

Nothing, glad to hear that :)

P.S: If you like Kalium, it would help us a lot if you could rate our item on themeforest from your Downloads tab, (if you don’t know how, just open this link) thank you very much :)

Hi! Beautiful theme. Considering buying. Question though. Is it possible to set up left side menu? Like a main menu for the site. Left sidebar. Not only for blog but generally. It’s not clear from the demos.

Hi there,

You can do that by using the Sidebar element via Visual Composer and then add the menu as a Widget even though that is not recommended because it won’t show in some pages.

Hi,

I am working on my client’s website, he purchased this theme, version 1.7.2.

I tried to work on revolution slider (version 5.0.9) to create one HTML5 video slide, and added all the .mp4, .webm., and .ogv formats along with the cover image (I used the HTML5 Video option in the “Main Background” section)... The video slide looks perfect on desktop, however, when i browse it on all my mobile devices (iOS and Android), all I get is the cover image, but can’t seem to be able to load or see the video.

What am I missing here? Appreciate your help, thank you.

HI FatenAmin,

Can you please post with the account you bought the theme, this way we can verify that you’re a real customer as we do not offer support to users who doesn’t have “Purchased” badge.

Hope for your understanding :)

I have the following custom css:

.main-header { display: none; !important }

on this portfolio item:

http://urlgone.com/059463/

But it doesn’t seem to be working. Any ideas?

Sorry, but I’ve replaced the PHP file as instructed and am still having the same problem.

Another problem I’m having are my slideshows are auto-playing on mobile devices. I have the autoplay field set to blank, so that shouldn’t be happening.

Hi quickhatch,

You are using an old version of our theme (1.8.1) and the latest version for the moment is (1.8.2), please update theme first.

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

Then don’t forget to go to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support.

If you still have any of those problems, just write us again.

Hi TheWhiteHoward

http://drops.laborator.co/1jWzN+

And replace it in kalium/assets/js/ folder.

It will solve your issue.

Sorry about this, the new update contains lot of features and it is normal when issues like this occur, we have done many improvements and new feature in this update.

Work like a charm, thx guys!

We’re glad to hear that :)

Hey guys,

Are you going provide autoUpdate on woocommerce? Ive customized my Kaluim store and don’t want to overwrite it with new update. Please advise.

Hi there,

You can use the Child Theme if you don’t want to overwrite the theme files, Kalium uses the Envato Toolkit where you can update the theme version when a new one has been released.

Hi

I’ve been trying to set up the portfolio page up but am having some trouble with the portfolio categories/filter. Basically I want to set up different portfolio pages each of which shows a different group of projects dependent on the categories set for each portfolio page. For example, one portfolio page might show projects associated with photography and film, another shows items associated with design and a third shows items associated with typography. How can I achieve this?

Many thanks,

Ole

Hi Ole

The new update of Kalium solves this issue, so just update to V1.8 and you will have have only those categories from the items you choose to show for that page.

Best regards

Hi!

I’m having an issue with the vertical height of my pages. On my front page, there is a section of white space beow the revolution slider, and on my other pages, the footer can only be seen by scrolling down (even though there is not enough content to require this). Is there a setting that I have missed to alter the page height, or a custom css I need to add in somewhere?

This is my URL: http://www.duranarquitectes.com/test/3536-2/

Thanks!

Hi annannss,

As a first step, we recommend you to update our theme, because you are using an old version of our theme (1.7.2) and the latest version for the moment is (1.8), please update theme first.

As for your questions, after the update please do this:

1— We have added a new option now, for the users who don’t want the bottom space.

Just go to that page where you want to remove bottom margins, and then follow this procedure below:

(view large version)

(view large version)

So to the section “No Bottom Margin” just click Yes and that row will not have bottom margins :)

2— Just go to your WP Dashboard > Laborator > Theme Options > Footer > find the “Fixed Footer” section and from it’s dropdown menu click Normal.

That’s it :)

I downloaded the theme zip file only (i.e. only the theme, no other assets) and I’m still getting an error when I try to install it in Wordpress.

Hi biosfeer,

Please check if you have Minimum PHP Configuration Limits

A few users had this problem and they solved by increasing their PHP limits on their server :)

You can find documentation on this site Kalium Documentation.

Specially Getting Started section :)

If any error is appearing just paste the error and reply to this thread again just reply to this comment again :)

Hi, there seems to be an issue with the Kalium ‘Agency’ Demo; when I navigate to a portfolio item page (via image link on the home page), an error is briefly displayed in the top-left corner, usually in the following format: Array ( [resize] => 360,360 ). I have tested this in both Firefox & Chrome. I’m looking to purchase Kalium and would like to determine if this might be a problem. Thanks in advance! :) Here’s the link to the demo page http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/agency/

Hi angeh,

Upss sorry for that, we removed it, it was happening only on the Demo Content through, thanks for reporting it :)

Thank you for your interest on our theme :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Thanks for your speedy response! :)

Hi angeh,

Glad to hear that :)

hey there,

I finished my site with your template now, but I am stuck with some issues: I would really appreciate it if you could help me solve these. If you tell me how I can send u my login, that is also possible.

1. What is the file directory for the default marker (pin) for maps? 2. Can I change the font size of the running text? 3. the contact form does not work. If i click “send message” i recieve the email in my admin email account, but there is no feedback for the person that wants to send an email via the contact form that the message has been sent (contact form stays in a grey overlay animation) 4. The sorting of the portfolio by cathegory is very glitchy / laggy. the animation is not smooth and the portoflio thumbnails jump all over the place. How can i solve this?

thanks so much in advance!

best regards, Joh

Hi: Just 2 questions:

1.In the home I like less space between logo the animated text typing and the show portfolio items…how can I do it? Can you give me the code to add it? http://www.martadelarocha.com/ 1.How do I change the space between category names in the portfolio page, I like the categories in one row…. http://www.martadelarocha.com/portfolio-marta-de-la-rocha/

Can you help me please?

Thank you so much!

Hi thee,

Sorry forgot the second issue, here is the fix for it:

.product-filter ul li {
margin-left: 20px;
}

Add the code above in the Custom CSS area to get all the categories in one row.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Laborator! The problem is solved!

Thank you so much!

Glad to hear that :)

I’ve made a custom home page for a Kalium themed site: http://executable.io/

In order to get a similar format from page to page, I’d like to replace the Kalium header with the one on the custom home page. Is there a quick way to fix this? Thanks for any help!

Hi there,

The only way is to edit the PHP files, there is no other way to get the same look of the homepage header, if you’re good at PHP then this will be no problem but if you aren’t sure how to do it better don’t touch it cause it may cause huge problems.

Kind Regards,

Is there a function to re-order the contents of the Portfolio? Thanks for this info!

Hi audreychan1,

You can use Post Types Order plugin for that :)

Looks like the video’s on the zig zag portfolio aren’t mobile friendly. at least the vimeo one that I’m using isn’t. If we could get a fix for that it would be amazing :)

Hi artisticpuppy,

Have you please updated your theme to the latest version (Kalium 1.8) ? We have made a lot of changes on this area of the theme.

If yes, then 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

P.S: I saw that you have created some other tickets, can you please try to add all your questions in one thread, because in this way is easy for us to understand what you have done and what is left, also is would be easy for you to post in one thread :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Yeah 1.8 fixed this issue thank you. :) I’m not sure how to make it in one thread. I kinda just post issues as they are happening.
