Hi Erik, thanks for this awesome theme! One qq: How do I change the favicon? Thanks, Natascha

Hi Natascha, thanks for your purchase, i’m glad u like it :)

Since the new site icon feature of WordPress 4.3, there’s no need to upload favicons with the regular method.

You can upload your custom Site Icon at General > Site Identity settings panel of the Customizer.

Happy new year! Cheers, Erik

Theme is broken, demo content not uploading, several errors with current plugins, not what I wanted in terms of “ebook selling”. Can I get a refund?

Nope, by the refund policy of Envato, authors are not able to refund after you have downloaded the item.

Anyway if you can tell me a bit more about the concrete issues you are facing at, most likely i will be able ro help you through the installion and setup process as the part of the item support.

Cheers, Erik

Hi, this is my purchase code af4f51f6-5498-4969-8b51-253af1cb31c7

I’m having the following problem: I’ve installed wordpress on aumentarealtezza.com/blog and installed just the flatbook theme and the plugins suggested.

However I’m getting a 500 Internal Server Error every time I edit and update a page through pagebuilder in my admin area. I’ve already contacted my hosting company (godaddy) and they told me that nothing is wrong with my htaccess file and the problem must be related to one of the plugins or the theme itself.

Could you please help me out to solve this problem. I have no other plugin or theme installed on wordpress besides flatbook theme and plugins.

Thanks,

Oliver

Hi Oliver, thanks for your purchase!

Sure, please send me over your wordpress admin login details in email, and i will check your backend and installion to see what’s wrong there and find a solution.

Cheers, Erik

Hi, I don’t have Mailchimp but I’m using Getresponse. I’d like to know if I can integrate Getresponse in the themes optin form (newsletter subscribe).

Thanks.

Hello, by default the theme has only MailChimp integration at the moment, but after your purchase made, i would be happy to help you through the integration process of Getresponse and include it in the next theme update to be available for everyone. Cheers, Erik

Hi,

A quick question: I know you have said it is not priority for you but could you give me some idea when are you planing to put back the icons option in the main menu? My client like the icons option in the menu.

Thank you.

Best regards,

Kamen

Hi Kamen! Ok than, i have just added your request in the to-do list of the next theme update. You will be notified in email when it’s released. Cheers, Erik

Hi Erik, how can I change the colour of the characters of headline and subtitle in the slider section? Thank you in advance, Emanuele

In the Customizer, head to Colors > Header > Header Title and play around with the Title Color and Header Text Color options. Cheers, Erik

Thanks Erik, but excuse me…where is the customizer?

At Dashboard > Appearance > Customize. You can learn more about the Customizer in docs. Cheers, Erik

Hello,

I downloaded the theme and this is the error I’m getting.

Themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template. FlatBook Package (v2.0.3) Stylesheet is missing there is no stylesheet

Please help as soon as possible.

Can you please respond !

Hello, thanks for your purchase!

You are trying to upload the whole package – instead of the installable wordpress theme, that’s why you receive this error message.

Please upload only the theme .zip file, as mentioned in the theme installion part of the documentation.

Cheers, Erik

Erik, this is proving to be a very flexible theme, thank you! I’m not ready to launch with any videos so can the #3 Video Section be deleted and easily added back later when I have videos?

Nope, i meant you can recreate when you will need it: just save the field values of the existing videos section to a random text file on your computer than paste it into the new one, think it’s pretty simple. Cheers, Erik

My bad. Didn’t notice the + to re-add a section anywhere, at any time. Thanks for your patience and appreciate the super fast response, Erik.

No problem! ;) Feel free to ask for help if you may stuck somewhere, while customizing the theme. Cheers, Erik

Thanks for all your help Erik. The site is looking awesome. I do have 3 minor things which are showing up. 1. When I look at the speech bubbles on desktop, they have a grey background inside the bubble. Great. However when I look at the site on my mobile the background inside the bubbles looks pink. 2. I have three messages (testimonials). They show up well on desktop however, on mobile, the second message doesn’t display the name and text below the picture, as in the first and the third. 3. I have a stray letter ‘c’ which is showing up on the far left hand edge of the site (either below the features section or above the comments/testimonials section) I have checked the ‘content’, ‘before’, & ‘after’ tabs in all sections, but cannot find any reason for this. Any ideas where this is coming from? Site is: www.ifyouwanttobewealthy.com

Just replied! Cheers, Erik

Thanks Eric. All good now.

Fine than! ;) Cheers, Erik

Hi Erik. Since the last update, icons (divider Icons & feature section icons) are no longer showing.

I just checked it – and as suspected – you have js errors on your site. Please open your javascript console and check the conflicts, and your icons will get back to work again. Cheers, Erik

Thanks. Yes problem was at my end.

No problem :) Cheers, Erik

Hi Eric,

I’m having trouble inserting any custom javascript on a specific page, also javascript plugins aren’t working with this theme.

Is there anyway to insert custom javascript on a particular page with this theme?

What I’m trying to add is this code to the header of a page… <script src=’//cbtb.clickbank.net/?vendor=soccersys’></script>

<!- ClickBank Trust Badge ->

Hello, thanks for your purchase!

..also javascript plugins aren’t working with this theme

Actually they are working. The demo site has no javascript errors shown in the js console.

Is there anyway to insert custom javascript on a particular page with this theme?

Sure, you can use the basic WordPress method for using javascript. You can find more articles about how to master the process, for example this. Cheers, Erik

Thanks for the theme. It is great. My domain is afrobeatdrumming.com

I am playing around. I have changed the colors of various items in the ‘Customizer’. All worked well however in the last few minutes all colorings have reverted back to your default color. (i guess after i change the font subsets.)

Thank,

Hello! Thanks for your purchase, glad to hear that you like it!

Upon your notice, i just looked into this subset related issue, and found out that – after changing the subset – indeed, the Customizer breaks.

To solve it and get back everything to work again, i commented out the Font Subsets option from inc/customizer/panel-typography.php file from line 64 – 76, and it solved the conflict temporarily.

Kirki::add_field('fb', array(
    'type' => 'multicheck',
    'settings' => 'typography_font_subsets',
    'label' => __('Font Subsets', 'flatbook') ,
    'section' => 'typography_fonts',
    'default' => 'latin',
    'priority' => 40,
    'choices' => Kirki_Fonts::get_google_font_subsets() ,
    'output' => array(
        'element' => 'body',
        'property' => 'font-subset'
    )
));

I’m going to look after this problem deeper and provide a fix in the next theme update. Until than, if you comment out that part mentioned above, your Customizer will work again. Cheers, Erik

When i comment out that part i recieve server error “500”. Any suggestion to solve the conflict?

Can you send me over your modified panel-typography.php file in email?

I need to check it, because i tested the suggested method on my demo site – and for me it worked as expected – without any errors. Cheers, Erik

Hi Erik. In v2.02, using css, is it possible to use the code for an EJunkie button in place of the buttons in the pricing section.

Thanks, got it now! Open up partials/section-pricing.php file, and replace the content of line 47 with this:

<p><a href="<?php if($btnurl){ echo $btnurl; } else { echo '#'; } ?>" class="btn btn-primary" target="ej_ejc" onclick="return EJEJC_lc(this);"> 

Let me know how it worked out (i’m not sure about the onclick="return EJEJC_lc(this);" part). Cheers, Erik

Thanks Eric. It worked perfectly. This is a plus for anyone who uses e-junkie as their shopping cart. The way e-junkie works is that you need to have a ‘View Cart’ Button anywhere on the page (I have put it in the footer) which has the following code e.g. <a href="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/gb.php?c=cart&ejc=2&cl=236813" target="ej_ejc" class="ec_ejc_thkbx" onclick="return EJEJC_lc(this);"><img src="https://www.e-junkie.com/ej/ej_view_cart.gif" border="0" alt="View Cart" /></a> <script type="text/javascript"> function EJEJC_lc(th) { return false; }; </script> <script src="https://www.e-junkie.com/ecom/box.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

You then use the ‘buy now’ button with the code I gave you previously and it opens a shopping cart in site. You can check it out here. www.ifyouwanttobewealthy.com

Great, thanks for sharing! Cheers, Erik

can’t change the font for the counter? Only the colour

Have you removed the custom css snippet i gave you back than? If not, remove and change the font again, and save.

Also, if it still doesn’t seem to work, please let me know and i will look into this deeper. Cheers, Erik

Just curious why my menu is higher up than your menu in the demo?

I haven’t changed anything…thanks!

Please try to define a Navbar Height at Customizer > Layout > Navbar and Save.

If it still doesn’t take any effect, send me over your admin login details in email, and i will check it directly on your site. Cheers, Erik

Sent you an email!

Just replied! Cheers, Erik

Just a heads up…when I went in to play around with the font, I chose “All” and then unchecked it. “Latin” was already checked.

Then I got this error (repeated about 50 times on the frontend):

Warning: array_merge_recursive(): Argument #1 is not an array in /home/content/82/5833982/html/thedavyrule/wp-content/themes/flatbook/inc/customizer/kirki/includes/class-kirki-styles-frontend.php on line 92

I commented out the function around line 92 and it got rid of the error, but I just wanted to give you a heads up.

In searching, I did find this reference: https://github.com/presscodes/maera-bootstrap/issues/62

Although noone has yet responded to that…

Thanks, great theme!

Hello, glad you like the theme! :)

when I went in to play around with the font, I chose “All” and then unchecked it. “Latin” was already checked.

Right, “Latin” is the default choice of the character subset option, as something needs to be defined when importing the Google Font.

Thanks for the reference and sharing the possible solution found – i will look into this and provide a fix in the next update – if neccessary.

Happy customizing! Cheers, Erik

Thanks for 2.02. Working great on my site, now in production at http://www.starshipdiaries.com. In the spirit of passing along small things, note that buttons in the theme, when clicked, turn the theme’s default green rather than remaining the theme’s “Primary Color on Hover” defined in customization. Didn’t see this behaviour in 2.0 or 2.0.1. Reproducible on Safari, Chrome and Firefox, though on Firefox you need to mouse OFF the button after click in order to see the effect. Possible to override in CSS?

Great, your welcome! ;) Yeah it’s a css bug, gonna fix it in the next update. Until than, you can fix it by adding this to your css:

.btn-primary:focus { background-color: #YOURCOLOR !important; }
Nice site by the way! Cheers, Erik

I have changed the coloring of various items in the ‘Customize’ area of wordpress. All worked well however in the last few minutes all colorings have reverted back to your default color. All I think I have done in the last few minutes is changed the heading size of the text in the slider.

Anyway, I am now no longer able to change the coloring through the ‘customize’ section.

I have sent you an email with log-in details if you need to confirm.

Sounds weird.. ok i will take a look at your backend, and get back to you with the result in email. Cheers, Erik

Hi Eric. I fixed the problem I had with the header image behind my Blog title by adding a colour strip matching the page background, but there was no options to remove the header background completely. I still have a problem with:

1. Slider & navnbar not displaying correctly on Android-Chrome

2. Mock Tablet does not scroll on any mobile devices I have tried

3. LEAVE A REPLY on the Contact page is the wrong colour and not updating along with my theme

Also, the fix you gave to change the font for the counter numbers is no longer working for me. Any font I try to add in the Custom CSS makes no changes on the section. Is because of something in the latest update?

The slider and Navbar images are now working on mobile, but the headings go off screen. One other question, I have: How can I change my blog page to show excerpts instead of full posts?

Sorry for the late reply – still working on the v2.0.3 update – what will contain fixes for your noticed issues as well as a few fresh features.

there was no options to remove the header background completely

An option for this has been already added in v2.0.3

Slider & navnbar not displaying correctly on Android-Chrome

As the whole slider layout has a different dimension like what it has on normal desktop view, the background image needs to be enlarged to fit the whole area – if that’s what you were pointing at.

Mock Tablet does not scroll on any mobile devices
LEAVE A REPLY on the Contact page is the wrong colour and not updating along with my theme

Right, thanks for the notices! These have been already fixed in v2.0.3

Also, the fix you gave to change the font for the counter numbers is no longer working for me. Any font I try to add in the Custom CSS makes no changes on the section. Is because of something in the latest update?

Yes, upon your notice – it has been fixed in v2.0.2 – so if you update to that – you will be able to customize it without using css.

How can I change my blog page to show excerpts instead of full posts?

You can learn more about displaying excerpts of posts in this article by wpbeginner.

Cheers, Erik
