In block “What Client’s Say”—http://newsmartwave.net/switcher/?theme=porto_wp There is background “uploads/2015/05/parallax-image.jpg”. How Can I change it by VC? Or where I can read documentation about it?

When edit the row element, you can see “Background” tab and select again the image.

Thank you

i will be running my woocommerce site as a multivendor site using dokan multivendor, and i will be using WP Total Cache and also runniing banner ads using AdRotate

i didn’t see an ecommerce template demo quite the way that i wanted

would i be able to achieve something close to the following:

http://content.screencast.com/users/step8601/folders/porto/media/b916d06c-868a-4057-8e67-89788a903f18/PORTO-CAN-THIS-BE-DONE-2.png

(don’t mind that the spacing and stuff is a little off, i’m not good with graphics)

1. there would be several banner sliders in the sidebar, and there would be a banner slider 728×90 in the header, and maybe some small banners within the main body

2. i would also want to highlight my brands, etc, in a few sliders near the bottom, see the pic above (you might need to click the image to enlarge it)

3. i’d also like to put the search box inline in the main top nav bar and have the social links next to the search box, you’ll see in the pic above

4. the three boxes labeled “Free Shipping & Return”, “Money Back Guarantee”, and “Online Support 24/7” would each be Titles of blog posts that I would create. however, it’s possible that the middle box “Money Back Guarantee” might be a banner slider instead, i gotta think about it

5. btw, can you provide a full set of demo data so that i can set up my site exactly like the demo so i can learn the system really well?

what do you think?

thanks so much

Hi, 1. You can add the shortcode in header contact info and customize header template file. 2. It’s possible. When edit the single image shortcode, you can configure lightbox params. 3. You should customize header template file. 4. When edit the posts, you can add custom block in content top or content inner top. 5. Please check our demo site. You can import demo like our demo sites. Regards.

Hi.
Updated the theme following the documentation (via FTP). After recompiling css, many things are not the same as before (colors, styles …) When I saved changes after updating, a warning was displayed: Warning: file_put_contents(/home/itblproject/public_html/wp-content/themes/porto/css/skin_rtl_1.css): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/itblproject/public_html/wp-content/themes/porto/inc/admin/ReduxCore/inc/class.redux_filesystem.php on line 160 Changed file permissions to 755 but nothing happens.Actually don’t know how to make things as before, the site is online since a few days and layout is different from the one my client likes and tomorrow he has too pay me the site ….Thank you.

Hi again! Good news! Forget the update isuue. It was only a folder permissions problem as from the theme documentation: I had to increase
wp-content/themes/porto/css
wp-content/themes/porto/less
wp-content/themes/porto/scss
to 777, if they are 755 is not enough. Should I change again to 755 if it could be a safety problem? if not I leave them that way, so the next update will work normally.
One question: can’t update Master Slider from the Install plugins. How to get it? Thank you.

Hi, Could you update manually? You can find in inc/plugins folder. Regards.

Done, hope it will update normally next time. Thank you.

Really this is an amazing theme, i love it . .. i have little problem my wishlist is not working , the related page is not found. so what is the solution … please check it http://wazirabadonlinestore.com/

Please add wishlist page in Appearance > Menus > Top Navigation menu. Please remove the wishlist custom link menu item.

I checked your site but didn’t found the issue.

I have imported the dummy data. I never saw that it was succefful, so I did it several times. Now I have some redundant datas i.e. 3 times currency, 3 times language, 3 x blogs, etc. How can I solve this problem without deleting each single thing by hand? I already tried to delete step by step, but it takes hours to delete it all. test page: http://www.winbau.com/wp

Hi, Could you import demo using the alternative method? http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/documentation/#demo_install

Why is the post title h2? It should be h1! Please solve this asap.

Hi, Could you change manually in content-post-*.php? We didn’t added h2 tag because the page title is h1 when enable Show Page Title in Theme Options > Breadcrumbs. Please check http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/demo11/aliquam-erat-volutpat-2/ When disable the page title, will load and hide the page title. We checked duplicate h1 seo issue when use h1 in the post title so used h2. Regards

Hello.

I have some question: 1. How can I change Google map type to hybrid or satellite by VC? 2. Why when I trying to use FF and VC I waiting for load some data from sw-theme site and its process is never-ending (bug?) 3. After import data I got 2 menu items with links to http://sw-themes.com/porto_dummy/portfolio/ (Portfolio page) and http://sw-themes.com/porto_dummy/?p=120131230123 (for 404 page)

Hi, 1. Could you use ultimate addons google map shortcode? You can configure the Map Type when edit this shortcode. If you are using visual composer google map, you should add the google map iframe code. 2. Please configure again the visual composer image shortcodes or visual composer row shortcode (background tab content). 3. Could you edit again the menu items in Appearance > Menus? Thease are custom links so you can change the links. Regards.

“You can configure the Map Type” I done this task, but Where U can see map type in Configuration? Can u send link or screenshoot? (Use ultimate shortcode from your theme example About US)

I sent you email.

Can we add this plugin to this theme without problem? ajax LIVE search https://wordpress.org/plugins/searchwp-live-ajax-search/

And is there any option for catalog mode? I would like to list my products without price at beginning. Thanks.

Thanks for your interest in Porto.

We also had no chance to test with that plugin yet, but there will be no problem. Porto has catalog mode option.

Regards, SW-THEMES

Hallo. The mobile menu is not working properly anymore. It’s only the overlay that is triggered by the burger icon, and not the slideout menu. It does not change position and z-index.

Can you please help me out?

Hi, Please regenerate default css files in Theme Options > Skin > Compile Default CSS. You should click again “Theme CSS”, “Plugins CSS” buttons after update theme. Regards.

how can i update the theme without change the customize that i made???

Hi, You should use porto child theme. You should overwrite the customized template file in porto-child theme folder. Regards.

Hey guys.. First let me congratulate you on the success of Porto! Well done! Second, as a long time wordpress web designer I encounter the same problem with every theme: missing translation for my language. Since English is no longer the only language of the Internet, I bet you’ll have an even greater success with your themes if you include translations at least for the most common languages. Think about it! If you like the idea, I can provide you with translations for French, Italian, Romanian and Hungarian languages. What do you think?

Thanks for your offer. Please give me your skype id through my profile page to discuss further details.

Regards, Alex

this theme looks really great

1. does Porto use a woocommerce.php file as a workaround for compliance with woocommerce, or does it build it “the right way” so to speak, here is a quick article on this:

https://www.wcvendors.com/help/topic/template-compatibility-authors-comments-no-wocommerce-php-file/#post-13529 https://www.wcvendors.com/help/topic/vendor-store-page/#post-9127

some comments from one of the above threads go like this:

/themes/CUSTOM-THEME/woocommerce.php (Bad!)

/themes/CUSTOM-THEME/woocommerce/all/the/templates/done/right (Good!)

2. Site Speed Up – in the Porto documentation listed here:

http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/documentation/#speedup

you mention both WP Super Cache and WP Total Cache

should both be used?

i think you mean to use just one of them, am i right on this?

also, i want to use AdRotate plugin (for the banner ad placements mentioned above), i believe that WP Total Cache has a workaround for AdRotate

thanks

Hi, 1. Porto theme don’t have woocommerce.php 2. You should use only one plugin. You can use w3 total cache. Regards

great, thanks! (i have another comment which i’ll start a different discussion about), thanks again :-)

Can you please tell me how to get the “Latest Blog Posts” Section as shown on this page? http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/demo14/ I’ve spent hours trying to get a blog post carousel like that but can’t seem to figure out how. I tried using the Visual Composer Advanced Carousel Element which doesn’t seem to work. (even though I watched the video instructions). Can you tell me how to get the blog posts in a carousel please?

also, can I take the description off, or at least shorten it?

Hi, Please configure “Related Posts Image Size” in Theme Options > Post > Single Post. Please regenerate all the thumbnails in Tools > Regen.Thumbnails. You can change “Related Posts Style”. You should customize content-post-item*.php to remove description and date.

I so love this theme and your support. Thank you very much, great support – it worked perfect!

After the update the colors have switched to light and the custom colours to standard colours, the header background is not transparent anymore. What happened?

Hi, Please check after regenerate default css files in Theme Options > Skin > Compile Default CSS. You should add custom css in Theme Options > Skin > Custom CSS. If you backup theme settings, please check again after import it.

hi, how to translate “search” word on breadcrumbs in search result page?

You can translate default po file with POEdit tool. If you want to change the manuall, please change in inc/functions/layout/breadcrumbs.php and page-title.php.

Hi again, I installed Porto on my “mother” site so that it would look like the shop site. So far I’m really liking the changes! However I noticed there’s a padding difference from shop to main site. I’m guessing it’s the gutter width. I’ve changed it a couple times and flushed the cache but the results are the same. I want it to have the same padding area that the shop site has. You can see the difference pretty easy if you look at the bottom of both pages near the square banner ads http://survivingtheoregontrail.com/ VS http://shop.survivingtheoregontrail.com Can you help fix this padding problem?

If you are not using rtl language, you don’t need to click “Theme RTL CSS”, “Plugins RTL CSS” buttons. You should add the styles in css/bootstrap_.css, theme_.css, plugins_.css, skin_.css. These files will be regenerate. You should add custom styles in style.css or Theme Options > Skin > Custom CSS.

I did the Theme CSS only but I’m not seeing the padding fixed. The main site still seems to have more padding on the right and left. Can you tell? ( I’m not sure if it’s on my end or if it’s just not fixed yet) http://survivingtheoregontrail.com/ VS http://shop.survivingtheoregontrail.com

Hi, Please regenerate again Plugins CSS. If it’s not fixed, please check after update theme and regenerate default css files.

Visual Composer to update Visual Composer License Key Requesting Where can I get the license code?

Thanks for using Porto.

Facebook sharing problem. You need to do to troubleshoot update But I can not date ??

How do i update Visual Composer? where can i get the updated version ?

Thanks for using Porto.

You can not upgrade VC version, should use embedded version only. We will update VC version on regular basis.

You can find in inc/plugins folder.

Thank you that worked..
