When trying to update the “Plugin WPBakery Visual Composer” I get an error that reads “An error occurred while updating WPBakery Visual Composer: To receive automatic updates license activation is required. Please visit Settings to activate your Visual Composer.”
An error on the link they send me to reads “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page”
Anything I should do to get this update?
Thanks!
Hello,
We’re sorry, there is an issue with Visual Composer 4.9, if you’ve this version and couldn’t update to 4.9.2, you need to delete this plugin first. Please go to Plugins page in your WP admin, deactivate this plugin and delete it from your site. After you delete this plugin, you will see a notification message at the top of the page. Click on “Begin Installing Plugins” to install a new one.
Thanks
Thanks. Doing this will not affect the site layout in anyway, correct?
Yes, of course! Deleting Visual Composer will not affect your content and settings.
How do I turn off the + revealer button at the top right of the main menu?
You can turn off the Sliding Bar option in Theme Options -> Navigation to remove this icon.
Hello,
I have just downloaded the update to flora and it’s saying there is an update for visual composer, but when I click to update it says I do not have sufficient permission to do so.
Thanks

Hi i have a question about revolution slider. When i add a link to a layer for example with “link to next slide” it reloads the page instead of using a nice fade out transition. How can this be solved? I use 2 youtube slides.
Hi,
I’m not sure on details about your links, but if you’d like to change slides from external links, make sure you’ve already added custom JavaScript correctly, see this link -> http://www.themepunch.com/faq/change-slides-from-external-hyperlinksider/
Hi Wyde – looking for help on a few items:
1. How can I have a clear background to my navigation but then introduce a colour once the scroll begins (the sticky part) when using expand layout for the nav?
2. How can I make the menu icon (three lines) match the link colours? When I change the nav from light to dark the page links change colour but the menu icon doesn’t change.
3. Under ‘info box settings’ the title of the link I add doesn’t show up as the button name on the frontend, any ideas? Also, do you know if I can change the colour of this button without changing the secondary colour across the whole site?
4. Under ‘info box settings’ I am unable to remove the ‘yeast’style icon that shows up as default with the theme, how can I remove?
Thanks
oh one more:
5. for your portfolio layouts, we noted that in some images get skewed. Do you have any options in how to present the images or select what part of the image to display?
Hi,
1. When you edit each page, change the Transparent Header option in Flora Options -> Header to Enable so your page will display the transparent header nav without background color.
2. You can add the custom CSS below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to change the color of the mobile menu icon:
<style type="text/css">
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:before,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:after,
.w-dark .menu-icon,
.w-dark .menu-icon:before,
.w-dark .menu-icon:after{
background: #ffd300!important;
}
</style>
3. The title of link is just a link tooltip that will show when you hover on a link, now we have no option to change the button text (Read More).
4. You need to add the custom CSS below to remove this icon:
<style type=”text/css”> .w-info-box.w-large .w-content p:after{ display:none; } </style>
5. Sorry but in some layouts, your images will be scaled and cropped to fit within the box, you should upload the images that are larger than 640×640px so they will be cropped correctly to the certain sizes. Also, the recommended size of images are larger than 1280×720px.
BTW, if you’d like you can send us your site URL in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact so our support can investigate this issue and help you out.
Thanks
Sorry, please replace the code #2 with new one below so it can solve the issue #2 and #4:
<style type="text/css">
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:before,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:after,
.w-dark .menu-icon,
.w-dark .menu-icon:before,
.w-dark .menu-icon:after{
background: #ffd300;
}
.w-info-box.w-large .w-content p:after{
display:none;
}
</style>
Thanks for the reply – for . question 3, are you able to clarify this part: Under ‘info box settings’ do you know if I can change the colour of this link / button without changing the secondary colour across the whole site?

Hi,
Try adding the custom CSS below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content:
<style type="text/css">
.w-link-button{
color: #80d5d8;
border-color: #80d5d8;
}
.w-link-button span{
background: #80d5d8;
}
</style>
You can replace the color #80d5d8 with a new one.
Thanks for this – it did solve the problem but then added some additional space above the top Nav FYI. No worries we found a way around it.
Another question for you would be about the portfolio section(s). When we choose to not display featured image in the portfolio page in Flroa options AND have selected the second layout option (where there is a full width image / video at the top), AND are profiling a video on this page, then the video does not get displayed properly and is partly cut off.
Do you have any suggestions for easily selecting which layout types you display the featured image for and which you don’t? (currently it’s a global setting) Thanks.
I also see an issue with the video when I disable the featured image for the portfolio page, this issue will be fixed in our next update. Thank you for reporting this issue!
Sorry but there is no option to disable the featured images for each layout, we have only global setting for all layouts.
Will look out for the next update.
As for the top nav, when using the expand layout, I am getting a ‘yellow’ x to close the menu. Do you know where I can adjust this secondary colour scheme?
This button uses the theme color scheme that you can choose in Theme Options -> General, you can choose from Predefined Colors option or choose your own color in Custom Color Scheme option.
However, if you’d like to change the color of this button only, you need to add the custom CSS below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content:
<style type="text/css">
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon > .menu-icon,
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon > .menu-icon:before,
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon > .menu-icon:after,
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon:hover > .menu-icon,
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon:hover > .menu-icon:before,
.expand-nav.full-nav-active #header .full-nav-icon:hover > .menu-icon:after{
background:#000;
}
</style>
Hey so we have selected the custom colour options but this menu item is not affected by it so we will have to use your code. However, I tried it and the ‘x’ is now changed but the 3 lines representing the menu are still the original yellow, suggestions?
Hi,
The code above didn’t work since you’ve already added the code that we’ve provided in previous comments 8 days ago. So you should remove those old codes from your Theme Options as follows:
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:before,
.w-text-light:not(.w-fixed) .menu-icon:after,
.w-dark .menu-icon,
.w-dark .menu-icon:before,
.w-dark .menu-icon:after{
background: #ffd300!important;
}
Hello,
I saw your theme contains options for hiring plans, which have the options and values of each plan. How it works, the customer will be able to pay the plan directly from the website or this is for the customer to contact?
Hello,
You can set a link for the button of each plan. You can add a link of product details page or contact page. Also, if you’ve WooCommerce plugin, you can add a link of “Checkout” or “Add to Cart” so when your customers click on this link, they will go to the checkout page to pay for this product.
Hi!
I purchased your theme and I love it! I just have a few questions:
1. Is it possible to change the color of the portfolio title on mobile? Or make a little box around the title? I have light and dark pictures in my portfolio, so you can’t really read the title on every folder.
2. I’m using the standard portfolio layout, but the thumbnails are a bit blurry. I like that you don’t have to open them in Lightbox, but you can just scroll down and see all the pictures. Is it possible to get the photos as sharp as they really are? (The files should be big enough. ) And/or just make the photos are bit smaller?
Hope you can help.
Btw. my website is www.leakaae.com you can see the blurry pictures there.
Hi,
1. I see there are custom CSS classes in Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content, so you can edit the code as below:
Replace:text-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25);With:
color: #fff; text-shadow: 0 0 10px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.25);
2. This is an issue with image resizing and cropping, since you upload the large images so they have been resized and cropped to the certain sizes. Unfortunately, the default image size of this theme is a landscape format so it doesn’t work well when you upload the portrait format of images. In our next update, we will add a new size with portrait format for displaying the images in the standard layout to fix this issue.
However, in the next update after you update the theme, you need to regenerate thumbnails by using this plugin -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ to get all images in new sizes.
If you’d like to fix it now, you should resize your images to the certain size before uploading them to your website. Please resize your images to 825px in width that fits perfectly within the portfolio standard layout.
Hello,
Having updated the theme this morning I had hoped some bugs my website I am working on might of been solved.
The theme still has miltuple issues on tablet devices landscape. Also if you will look at my setup the logo I have in the slider area at the top of the homepage It doesn’t have consistency across devices, with some devices having overflow occurences and others being right at the top as aposed to being just above the text.
many thanks, here is the link..
http://codeagency.com/Hello,
Regarding the issue on tablet landscape, there is an issue with the row settings since you set an image as the background of parent row instead of adding it to the column directly, so when this row is on landscape mode, the contents in this row increase the height of row and background image will disappear.
You can fix this issue by editing the row and change the Content Vertical Alignment option to “Top”.
For the slider issue, you can set different styles (such as size and position of headings/images) for each screen, see the last paragraph of “4.4 Layers Grid Size” here -> http://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/slider-setup/#slidelayout
We just released Flora 1.2.3 that includes Visual Composer 4.9.2. Unfortunately, there is an issue with Visual Composer 4.9 that came bundled with the previous versions of the theme.
So if you’ve Visual Composer 4.9 and couldn’t update to 4.9.2, you need to deactivate this plugin and delete it from your site before installing it again via the notification message from the theme. For more details on how to update the theme and included plugins, please follow the instructions in our documentation.
We are sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Is the largest/widest an image can be in the portfolio (in this format: http://alexandermasters.com/portfolio/kaitlyn-cullen/) 825px? Not on a retina display, but want to make sure my ‘large’ images only as wide as they need to be for the theme.
You can use 825px of width since it fits perfectly to this portfolio layout.
Also, you can upload the large images such as 1920×1080 (Full HD) or larger. When you upload an image that’s larger than 1280×720 (HD), your image will be cropped automatically to the certain size 1280×720 to fit properly within your portfolio layout.
So the recommended sizes of images are 1280×720px.
Hello team, I’m not familiar with Worldpress, I have a very simple question: In “Minimal Portfolio” template, can I have filters for my works on the top of the homepage? like”branding, art direction, advertising….”
Hello,
Yes, of course! This is a Portfolio Grid with Flora Masonry layout so you can also display the filters as you see on this page -> http://wydethemes.com/flora1/flora-masonry/
Could you tell me how to make it? I tried to figure it out by myself but couldn’t find it in the guide..Thank you!
After you install the theme and included plugins, you can import demo content in Theme Options -> Home, and choose Minimal Portfolio demo, so you’ve received sample pages and posts of this demo. For more details on how to install and import demo content, please follow the instructions in our documentation.
In order to show the filters in the portfolio grid on home page, please follow the steps below:
1. Navigate to Pages on your WP admin and edit the Home page. 2. Edit the Portfolio Grid element. 3. In the Portfolio Grid Settings window, uncheck the box "Hide Filter" and click Save Changes button. 4. Update the page.
Yesterday, the menu (left, classic, etc.) disabled. I didn’t make any new changes to my website. It just has the flora sticky menu and a hidden left menu that’s it. I can’t get the menus to display anymore. I’m on a desktop, not mobile. This how the menu typically looks on mobile with the lines icon the left corner.
It’s working now 
Hi! I had a problem after updating flora. After the upgrade, in some places pages – spoil vertical padding. But the big problem with Revolution Slider: spoiled scale banners. Previously, the video is not so increased. Show you how to make a video so does not increase, and takes up all the space in width http://mkitaev.ru/portfolio-item/cinemore/ – more banner banner area. I did not change the settings of the banner, the video fully fit before adjustment.
Hi,
I suppose this is a slider issue, since you just updated the Slider Revolution plugin so it affects your slider at the top banner. I see your slider has been set as full screen so it stretches to full the browser width and height (it has a bug in the previous version), you should edit this slider in Slider Revolution, and change the slider layout to Auto.
Regarding the vertical padding issue, I’m not sure why your rows have lost the vertical padding but by default the rows in the single post page have no padding at all. Try choosing the Vertical Padding Size option in the Row Settings window for each row so it will have the padding at both top and bottom.
Hi! That is due to a bug in previous versions of the revolution slider – in my part of the page there were problems? Now revolution slider works correctly? if I redid banner, then again I do not have to redo them?
Auto mode is not suitable. It has left and right holes appear. But I need the video to be the full width of the page.
Also, there were strange bugs in the slider – http://prntscr.com/9wrn71
Refresh the page several times revolyushen slider. Every time slider will behave in new ways. In one case, it will display an image in another – no. Try here http://mkitaev.ru/portfolio-item/tesberry/ on this slider http://prntscr.com/9wrr2e
Since the portfolio single post page doesn’t support full width layout by default so you would see some issues when you add full width sliders in the portfolio post.
I’m not sure why you add couple of full width sliders in the post but this is not in the theme designs and this would broke your content layout. Please choose the Slider layout for your portfolio post instead, see our demo -> http://wydethemes.com/flora1/portfolio-item/portfolio-8/
This theme comes with 4 layouts for portfolio post and you should add text elements to the post content for displaying the portfolio details instead.
The full width or full screen sliders are suitable for the pages that support full width content.
Hi I sent you admin credientials through support. Please take a look at my page. this is so frustrating. I can’t seem to see any textual changes from builder to published page. its like its taking the info from someplace else. Please please take a look and help me sort this out.
http://5.100.250.171/~michael/Hi,
I just replied to your email!
However, I see there are duplicated pages on your site, seems like you’ve import the demo content 2 times. Make sure you’ve edited the right page that is displaying on your front page. See more details on your email.
On a separate note: is there a way to lazy load portfolio images rather than use the pre-load? I only ask because – as they’re quite image heavy – loading the page in its entirety takes a considerable about of time, and there’s not really any indicator of progress with any of the loading icons. So if there’s a way to just force the page to open and then the content to follow – or lazy load the images – that would be fantastic. Otherwise you don’t know if the page is hanging or not.
All that aside: love the theme. It’s the first I’ve been (despite the numerous questions) entirely happy with from the onset. Wish I could find out how to rate it :/
Hi,
You can turn off Preload Images option in Theme Options -> General to disable pre-load images, so it will display the preload just a few seconds before showing the content. Also, you can install the cache plugin such as W3 Total Cache ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/w3-total-cache/ ) that can improve your server performance and reduce the download times.
If you’d like you can give us your rating for this theme in your Downloads page ( http://themeforest.net/downloads ), find the Flora – Responsive Creative WordPress Theme and rate this item.
So I’ve tried adding lazy load plugins, and none of them seem to have any affect on the theme. I’d, ideally, like the images to load as they did on my old website.. where they just load from top to bottom in that order. What I find with Flora is that, even with preload and the loading animation turned off – they still don’t appear until all of them have loaded. And these pages are heavy. Like 60MB.
What’s preventing them from ‘progressively’ loading?
I’d ideally like them to load like they do on here:
gavinhowarth.com/blog/
Unfortunately, this theme always loads images before displaying the content even you turn off Preload Images option since this option affects only background images but won’t to other images on the page.
However, in our next update, we will update this feature so it won’t pre-load any images at all when you turn off this option.
I can have someone else look at it until the update – which file dictates the loading?
This feature is included in the core functions of the theme scripts so it’s too hard to modify this. However, we will release a new update within 24 hours, please wait for this update instead.
That’s awesome. Will you, by chance, be including lazy load or a variation thereof as well? More than happy to send money for the implementation.
Sorry but the lazy load is not in the theme features. Thank you for your suggestions, we will look into this.
Not sure if this is a ‘theme’ or ‘plugin’ issue, but I can’t for the life of me get the ‘simple calendar’ plugin to function as intended unless the page is accessed directly (ie not via a link on the site) or reloaded.
http://alexandermasters.com/contact/wedding^ how it should function
http://alexandermasters.com/contact > click ‘getting married’ > can no longer change months.HOWEVER, if you refresh/reload the page, the boxes get bigger and the calendar allows you to change months again.
Is something being omitted in the header by not loading the page afresh?
This plugin is not compatible with the AJAX Page feature so you can’t change the months when you access this page by clicking on any links on another page, you should add this page (/contact/wedding/) into Exclude URLs option in Theme Options -> AJAX Page -> AJAX Options.
However, I’m not sure why you add the custom CSS to hide the events list within the calendar. Try removing the code below from your custom CSS so you will see the list of your events and it will work.
li.simcal-event {display: none;}

Hi,
When you’re working on One Page site, your front page will display the content according to the primary menu, you can edit your menu in Appearance -> Menus, and move your home page to the first order so the slider that’s in the home page will also move to the top of the page.
thanks. That worked for the slider. I have need to add custom css. What would be the best way to do that if i only have wordpress admin access?
This is really weird. I change texts around but no change is seen after update. page builder is completely ignored. What am i doing wrong?
You can add your custom CSS to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content as below:
<style type="text/css">
.your-class{
}
</style>
Regarding the page builder issue, we’ve never seen this issue before and it’s working now on our demo sites. If you’d like you can send us your admin login credentials in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact so our support can investigate this issue and help you out.
thank you. I sent you the admin
