Hi Again

I have noticed on the shop page when you click the show more button to reveal more products it repeats some products already there and does not show others at all.

http://www.rocksrock.com.au/shop/

Hi mrfb59 ,

You are using an old version of our theme (1.8.2) and the latest version for the moment is (1.8.5), 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 this problem is still present please reply tot this comment again.

Happy Holidays :)

Hi Yes it is still happening. Quite a lot of the products are being duplicated on the main shop page while others do not appear at all. Mark

Hi Mark,

This question is related to theme developer and I am unable to give you any solution about this because I am not backend developer.

Our theme developer Arlind or Art can help you with this, but they took the holiday vacation and they will be back on 04 January.

When they come back, just reply to this thread and you will make sure Arlind or Art will see your comment.

Hope for your understanding :)

Hi, my theme is very slow. I have managed digital ocean server with optimisation for wordpress and my other websites on same server perform good. Especially slow is single portfolio pages http://woocommerce-10926-24115-68124.cloudwaysapps.com/

Hi aichels,

I’m sorry but we are a small team of 3 people. I’m the front-end developer, Arlind is the backend developer, and Art is the designer.

We have worked all the year on the Kalium theme, and now Art and Arlind are taking some rest, when they come, i will take a break for 1 week.

Hope for your understanding there.

I would love to help you on your problem but that is not a problem that i notice also we haven’t noticed any slow speed on our clients websites, we have tested Kalium many times for any speed problems and we continuously try to make our site faster and fasted by including there the latest technologies.

P.S: You are using an old version of our theme (1.7.2) and the latest version for the moment is (1.8.5), 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.

Hello ! Is it possible to change the header font-size to 9 or 10 ? My website : www.skandinav.fr

Hi inamase,

Ok then, because i didn’t know that you are talking about the menu :)

Delete that code that i gave you earlier please and add this new one:

.main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container div.menu>ul>li>a, .main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container ul.menu>li>a {
    font-size: 10px !important;
}

Hello!

I made multi sites network and I wanted to apply your theme to one of the sites. In doing and importing demo content, I met this message – “NOTE: This content pack includes portfolio items which requires Portfolio Post Type plugin, to install it go to Appearance » Install Plugins and then refresh this page.”

Of course, I activated all the plugins. in the network page. But in the site setup page, I can’t find the plugin – Portfolio Post Type plugin.

In fact, I had tried this for a long time and gave up. But I’d like to try one more time because I really like to use your beautiful theme. Could you help me?

Thanks..

I deleted the part ”// Portfolio Post Type Plugin” in the laborator_demo_content_importer.php” And I succeeded in importing demo data. Sorry for any inconvenience. And Thanks for beautiful theme and work. ^^

Hi kalos250,

Great to hear this but you need this plugin to be able to create your portfolio.

Maybe you have installed it, but not activated.

You can install and activate this plugin by going to your WP Dashboard > Appearance > Install plugins :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hello! I’d like to modify the “Show More” button border as it’s barely visible (my site: test.christyclaire.com). I’ve searched the Kalium Theme options but can’t seem to find how to do it. Can you help?

Many thanks!

Hi there,

To modify the button and it’s border add this to the Custom CSS:

.show-more .button {
border-color: red !important;
}

Hi Kalium Themes,

So using the ecommerce demo, on the product pages, when you click to enlarge the product image, the image opens/enlarges twice, once in lightbox form, and one on top of the lightbox. For example: http://www.davidsalphotography.com/product/penguin-pedia/

How can I get it to only show the single lightbox layer?

Hi jpirk,

We don’t have this issue on our theme, and it should work to you too. Can you please disable all your third-party plugins (plugins that don’t come with our theme) one by one, and check if this problem is solved.

I’m sure that this is happening because one of your plugins is interfering there :)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hello, How can i put the contact form 7 in the same style as the Kalium form? kind regards

Hi there,

Currently the Contact Form 7 is not supported by our theme, it will be in the upcoming updates as we are making it compatible with the best form plugins for WordPress, currently it supports only NinjaForms.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi there ! Many thanks for your hard work. I just bought the theme and look forward to playing with it ! :) I’ve got a question regarding shop image dimensions. It’s not very creative on my part but I’d like my image dimensions to look exactly like your shop demo site. Could you please tell me what dimensions to use ? I currently have this saved: http://pasteboard.co/6FjZuJS.png Many thanks ! ;)

Hi Ylli, Thanks so much for your reply ! :) I however have another issue with activating Revolution Slider. I can install it (it is currently active) but i can´t activate it. I’ve got these messages “not activated” and “register slider revolution” How can i solve this? Thanks :)

Hi again, Sorry, “cancel that”, I figured it out. Thanks anyway :)

Hi kchauvin,

Glad to hear that :)

Hi Kalium Team,

great work with 1.8 with nice features :-)

But as I click through the photoraphy demo, I again found a bug with sorting the portfolio categories by clicking on the categories on the portfolio thumbnail. e.g. http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/photography hovering on the top-left thumbnail “subway stop” – the moon, the categories “people” and “cities” appear. Clicking on “cities” it shows only the portfolio items cities. So far so good. But now you are inside the categorie “city” – and no chance to get out again. e.g. by selecting “macro” or “animals” – both categories are empty. By selecting “all” you see a lot of portfolio items – but again just the cities. Only by reloading the main page or the “Work” from the menu, you see “ALL” items again. For me, as I said some versions before this sorting option on the thumbnails is just confusing and it always has had bugs. Why not give us an option, to have the categories written but without a link?

Thanks, and looking forward to update my page with 1.8.2

regards, konrad

Hi Konrad,

Can you please update your theme to the version 1.8.5 of Kalium and check if this problem is solved?

Happy Holidays :)
—Ylli

Hi Ylli, I found the bug on your photography DEMO site. http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/photography the bug is still there. see my description above. You too, happy hollidays, konrad

Hello:

This is a great theme and fairly easy to navigate through.

I do have a few questions:

1. I have been using the ‘columned portfolio item’ and am working on linking artist’s pages to their projects with the ‘project link’. I have come across an issue where the project has two artists and therefore I would like to link to two artists’ pages. Right now I only see how I can link one artist but I don’t know how to duplicate the project link.

2. My client wants to include icons in the social media links in the footer. Is there a way to do this?

3. I have created categories on the portfolio page and they appear in the portfolio’s navigation menu but when they are clicked nothing changes. The category ‘all’ are the only items that appear. Also, is there a way to not have all as a category?

I appreciate your time and help with this!

Thanks, CJ

Hi CJ,

To get this fixed, download the file below:

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

Now you need to paste this file in wp-content/themes/kalium/inc folder

P.S. This will be automatically included in the upcoming update.

Kind Regards,
Art

Thanks Art! That worked for ordering the categories properly.

Now I am still stuck with linking the icon at the bottom of the portfolio page to the “exhibition” page only, rather than linking to all portfolio items?

Also, I’m wondering if we can change it so that the portfolio items appear in alphabetical order rather than randomized.

Thanks!

Hi there,

To link the icon at the bottom of portfolio enter your link here, see screenshot: http://drops.laborator.co/1hWV5

That’s not possible through the Theme Options but can be done with the Post Types Order plugin, or any other ordering plugin.

Kind Regards,
Art

How can I change the icon size? They are way tooo big on my site!

http://www.caronarchitecture.com/kalium/posts/portfolio/livudistrict/

Thanks!

Hi there,

If you could tell us which icons you want to change it would be easier for us, I don’t see any icons in this page except the next/prev buttons.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello, I’m setting the contact page up. I need to set a checkbox for the user to accept our privacy policy before he can submit the contact form. Unfortunately I can’t find any setting in the theme options nor in the widget options to accomplish this task. Could you please help me with this? Thank you very much

Hi sobriodigital,

Hmm this option is not on our theme, but maybe you can add a plugin that can do this.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Can you suggest one please?

Hi there,

Our theme supports Ninja Forms, you can check if the Ninja Forms support the checkboxes before submitting a form.

Hi Laborator

I’m using the Portfolio items from Visual Composer on my Home page much as you did in the Agency demo on your demo site but I don’t want to show all of the Categories. I’ve tried to specify them in the Build query section by inserting the Category slugs but the -text that I include just vanishes after I have saved it. Do I need to change one of the settings to get this to function correctly. The same issue exists in all of the type text boxes on this element. Please advise.

regards

Dave M

Hi Dave,

That can be easily fixed by entering the category names in the “Taxonomy” field, it is really weird but these are the Visual Composer settings.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art Strange but it works I was merely trying to populate the wrong imput box. Thank you regards

Dave M

Glad to hear that Dave :)

Hi,

I am using the Kalium Architecture theme. In your examples I see that you use a white logo on a dark background in the revolution slider and a dark logo on the white pages. How can I accomplish that?

I accidentally found it myself. The option of an alternative logo on a page.

Hi there,

Glad to hear that :)

Hi, Thanks a lot for this theme. Just few questions :

In my blog, I would like to change the language of the comments part, i would like translate : “SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS” in french, is it possible ??

And it is possible to add a button “read more” for article, on the main page of my blog ? With a mobile device there’s no button and readers have to click on the photography to read the all article.

Thanks !

Hi there,

You can change the “Share your thoughts” into any language by translating the theme strings.

To translate 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.

Unfortunately you cannot add the Read more button for articles, the only way is clicking on the title or photo to open it.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello Laborator Team, I have a problem on my site, i tried to install “duplicator” to make a backup on my website and i have this message :

Saria

Hi Saria,

This question is not related to our theme, and we don’t know how to help you there.

Thanks for your understanding :)

Hi In the shop settings of the theme options I have set the ‘Product Columns & Rows’ to 4 rows and ‘Decide when sidebar is present’.

However on the homepage it is only showing 3 products per row even though no sidebar is present. Can you suggest what may be wrong?

Thanks Mark

Hey,

I’m having trouble with the logo on your theme. I’ve uploaded my own and set it again in the page settings but for some reason your default one keeps appearing a few seconds after page load.

www.dev.redefinition.co/lwe

Pass is lwe123

It’s using an edited page template so that may be an issue. I can provide you with login details if you wish.

Hi Luke,

That logo it’s on Revolution Slider settings, you can learn how to remove that by seeing those images:

Click your slider Settings icon: (view large version)

Then remove this code from the “Custom JavaScript” area: (view large version)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli
