Hi Andon.
I already have a plain html site running and would like to replace it with your theme but how do I prevent it from being live before everything looks ok ?
I cannot allow the old site to be “under (re)construction”
Thank you very much
Christophe
Hi Christophe,
what you need to do then is install a WordPress site where you’ll be building your new site somewhere on your server “unannounced”
and once you build it and ready can then move it over to the live site location to replace the old one, there are plugins and methods that you can easily do that with. You could install it in a subfolder, for example if your current domain is www.example.com you could install the test site at www.example.com/newsite/ for example and work there. You could also put it under maintenance mode while working on it to make sure search engines don’t pick it up yet.

I purchased the theme. No demo content was provided. Can’t submit a support ticket because it says my purchase code is invalid. Meh.
Hi @heavyquipinc,
the demo content is provided in the support forum, there is a whole post dedicated on that with all the info, instructions and files you need.
Please email me and I’ll help you sign up with the forum. You can send me an email through my Profile page.

Unfortunately I am not going to be able to use your theme. I am working for a company and I have developed numerous wordpress website for this company. All of the templates I have purchased in the past have included demo content. The CEO of the company wants me to request a refund from you. We will not be using your theme because I need to get this site up and running and cannot wait until you grant me access to your personal support forum for the demo content and instructions. Thanks again. Please refund.
Hi,
It should be really straight forward to register with the support forum, other users have no such issues, I don’t need to usually do it manually, it’s possible that you tried the wrong combination of Envato username and purchase code or copy/pasted faulty string…
I just created your forum account and emailed you back, so if you’re interested you may proceed with the importing the demo content: http://dreamthemedesign.com/u-design-support/discussion/22852/optional-demo-content
I have my reasons to NOT include the demo content with the theme itself, for example I don’t want to make the theme too heavy which most users appreciate that. There is also no such rule that it should be included in a specific place, it’s to the authors discretion where to provide it.
For refunds please refer to this page: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821460-Can-I-Get-A-Refund-

Andon, I have a question. This theme was originally developed back in 2011 which makes it 5 years old. This week, we had an issue with a client’s website running a design based on a really old theme. It turns out the problem was the THEMES was not compatible with current versions of PHP. My question is, #1. Do you regularly update this them for compatibility with newer version of PHP not just wordpress? #2. How long, in your estimation, will you continue to offer support for this theme considering it’s age?
I only ask, because I want to know if I should be looking for alternatives for newer projects or If I can feel safe to know that this theme will be supported for the next 3-5 years.
HI @multicolor,
the U-Design theme was initially released back in 2011 with great success, nonetheless I’ve always kept it updated and adding new features, just look at the theme’s changelog if you need more detailed information on what features, security update, etc were added and when: http://themeforest.net/item/udesign-responsive-wordpress-theme/253220#item-description__updates-history
At this stage I’m far from abandoning this theme as it’s still selling strong with a relatively large user base, so I think you’re pretty safe at least for the next couple of years 
1 That’s correct compatibility is checked for both WordPress, PHP.
2 Age of a theme doesn’t matter if it’s being renewed with new features and kept up to the current trends, which has been the case with U-Design.
Regards
Awesome! Thank you for a speedy response and a wonderful theme. I can’t tell you how much I enjoy working with U-Design and was hoping that I can confidently continue. Thanks for always providing EXCELLENT support as well!
You’re very welcome, glad you feel this way about the theme and support we provide 
Cheers,
Andon

Hi there,
I have the latest theme update and for some reason the revolution slider is going full width when I’ve specified that in Revolution Slider settings to be 940×430 but there are no settings in the UDesign theme options to keep it contained rather than full width.
How can I remove the full width option from the theme options panel?
The site is http://mineralypetproduct.com/
Thank you!

Hi , i bought this theme when i did a website for my client. Now can i transfer the ownership of this theme to them ? I will not be able to download this theme again after that. It will be theirs. Thanks
Hi,
I would recommend to you to ask Envato/ThemeForest support for anything accounts related, they will have the answer for you as I’m not sure how licenses can be transferred, as far as I know you cannot, but ask them and see what they say. You may open a support ticket with them here: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/requests/new

Hi,
just published my problem in your support forum…
thanks,
Thank you
Hello, I have a 75+ page Wordpress site that I want to change to the u-design theme. Is it safe for me to purchase/install/activate this theme or will I lose my content? Thank you
Hi,
you will not lose your content which is stored in the database. You might notice sidebar widgets changes, but you should not have lost your widgets they will most likely be de-activated but you could re-activate them again by assigning them to whatever sidebar you want in U-Design.
Regards
thank you 
You’re welcome, let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.

Update Theme

Hi AndonDesign,
I’m kind of struggling down with the background image for the content block in the “Meet the team” page. I’m customizing that design as you can see here: http://blog.lssignstudio.com/about-us/ but I can’t get to give it the right position (and I’ve tried every value possible; center bottom, 50% 90%, 0 715). Sometimes, when the page is reloaded the image appears to be in the content block but it immediately shifts up… am I doing something wrong? How do I fix it?

Hello. Theme looks amazing. One question before I buy, is the shop you made “Tea” time also available in the regular U-Design theme (white, orange etc. of the normal non-shop demo website)? Thanks
Hi Phion, thanks for the interest.
You can style the site any way you want really, if you noticed I run the “TeaTime” demo shop on a separate WordPress instance than the main demo site, hence the difference in colour schemes.

Hello, How do i edit the content on the top bar area of the theme? Thank you.

I see the theme was updated a couple of days ago. However, it did not include the update for Visual Composer. When can we expect the VC update?
Hi,
yes, I DID include it in the update, please have a look at the changelog history: http://themeforest.net/item/udesign-responsive-wordpress-theme/253220#item-description__updates-history

My mistake. I found the update. Thanks for quick reply. Love the theme!
Nice work – Thanks Andon
Glad you like it 
Thank you
Hi, can this theme be used for a Web Hosting site? I see pricing tables but what about a domain checker etc? Thanks
Hi,
sure you can use it for that. Things like domain checker is not something a theme should offer, this is very niche feature which should either be custom coded or find a WP plugin for it. In general specialized features should be outsourced to plugins and not a theme, a theme should just offer features related to the look and feel of a WordPress site, I don’t see how a domain checker fits that.
Regards
So simply put, no domain checker in your theme 
you could always use an iframe if you can’t find any domain checker WP plugin or third party script
I’ve inherited a website that uses and older verson of your template.
There is a new version of the U-Design theme available. You have version 1.8.0 installed. Update to version 2.8.2.
My task is to make it mobile friendly, and was wondering if I purchase and apply the latest version this will be the easiest first step. Is version 2.8.2 mobile friendly?
Yes, absolutely. The theme is “responsive” (mobile friendly) since version 2.0.0 which was released over 2 yrs ago (more precisely 23.04.2013). You will find the change log on this page (scroll down): http://themeforest.net/item/udesign-responsive-wordpress-theme/253220
Once you purchase the theme make sure to access the support forum which contains over 20,000 support threads that we have already resolved. We also have update guides there.
Regards
Perfect. I’ll look at the log, but for sake of time anything I should keep my eye from 1.8 to 2.0 can I upgrade directly?
it all depends what state the theme is currently in, if it was heavily customized, meaning core theme files tampered with, than you will definitely feel the update in a bad way as those customizations will be wiped out. Make sure to back up the site first both files and DB just in case, then go ahead and update directly to most recent. Go with “Method 2” described in this forum thread: http://dreamthemedesign.com/u-design-support/discussion/13/how-do-i-update-the-theme
Once you update the theme make sure to go to the “U-Design” Settings page and save it, just save it, this will refresh all necessary files that were updated (you won’t need to do that with future updates) just this one time because of the big jump.
If you have further questions please post in the forum as I’m going offline now for a few hours.
Cheers,
Andon
Perfect. I’ll purchase the template and follow these instructions to the dot. Thanks Andon.
What do I use for the Slider Revolution license?
nothing, just ignore it. The license activation is only for people who have purchased the plugin themselves directly.

ok, I have created a thread for this. Hope someone answers quickly.
Hi Andon! I am using a membership plug-in within your theme. Unfortunattely 1 important function is not working due jquery issues. I contacted them and they could not fix it. I had to make sure that you don’t load custom versions of jQuery in U-design or should use the latest select2 version.
Is there a way to solve this?
Thank you in advance!
Danny
Hi Danny,
doesn’t sound like it’s theme related because I do not touch jQuery in my theme, my guess is that you have a third party plugin that’s loading jQuery on their own. I also use Select2 in my theme for the Icon Fonts (you can see it in the editor when you click the “Add Icon” button).

I deactivated all plug-ins: did not work. I activated another theme: problem solved. That is why I think it is theme related. Any ideas how to solve this?
maybe you have a much older version of the theme, I’m not sure, what version do you currently have? Or this could be very specific to your site or server environment, other users as well as myself don’t have this issue. Actually, I will most likely need to further investigate, please email me 2 things:
1 ) Admin access to your WordPress site (you could create an account for me just make sure to make me an administrator)
2 ) FTP access to your server
You can send me an email through my Profile page.

I use the latest version: 2.8.1. I emailed you what you need. Thank you in advance. Hope you can help me!
Cheers
Thanks, I will email you shortly.
Andon
Great support Andon, thank you!
Glad we could help out

any chance a new version is being released soon with the new visual composer?
Hi,
not yet, there’s nothing that important in the last release anyways, I try to keep a balance between making too many updates too often which ultimately upsets some users and keeping up with Revolution Slider and Visual Composer updates which at times and between the two could be quite often, so I make sure first there’s nothing important in those updates like security releases, etc, in which case I make sure to make those available right way.
I might have an update for the theme in the next couple of weeks.
Cheers
Andon
