How can I activate the theme to receive the updates ? I do not see where I can put the themeforest activation code. Thank you
Please use Envato Toolkit plugin. You can download it here:
https://github.com/envato/envato-wordpress-toolkit/archive/master.zipUnfortunately, Envato doesn’t have an official place for it but sure, you can count on it.
Hello, I am happy with your theme, but I do not know how to activate it and where I can put my Google Analytics code ? Thank you for your help.
Hi Edithka
I’m glad hearing that you’re happy. To add Google Analytics code, let use this plugin (I used it too). The reason I don’t put an option for Google Analytics in the theme is here (TLDR; you’ll never lose data while switching themes or some issue arises)
Cheers
Thank you very much for your help. I will read the article 
Sounds great! 
Another person that loves the look, but needs the WooCommerce add in as well. Such a shame.
I feel sorry too. 
you can bookmark this one for future works.
Thank you,

Hello!
Very nice template, indeed .
Before purchasing it, I’d like to know if the space between the header and the menu is fixed or not? Actually, my logo is quite big and I don’t want it sticked to the menu but with some space above and below.
Thanks a lot!
Hi man. Space between header and menu is changable, let set it yourself in the customizer after installing the theme.
Cheers,
WiThemes
Perfect, thx for your reply .
One more question: are the colors changeable too (such as the highlight on the menu or the sign up button for example).
If yes, is the choice of colors large or not? As my logo is green, I’d like to find the same color code with a green close to mine
Thanks a lot, again!
Hi Naturaconsult06,
Colors are changeable but it depends on what you wanna adjust. For instance, button color is fine but navigation above and below line you’ll need a custom code. However, we’re willing to help you out at https://withemes.ticksy.com/
Cheers,
Ok, thanks!
Hello: I just purchased this theme and looks like a perfect fit for my company website. Because I am fairly new to WP and with limited knowledge, I wanted to know if there is a template to follow with instructions as to what plugins and what goes where (in case I wanted to make it look similar to sample).
Hi Maggie, thank you for purchasing my item.
Please follow section Quick Installation in the Documentation included in the download package, you’ll get sample data for your site. It contains few pages that you can easily edit
If you experience further hardness, don’t hesitate to reach to us at our dedicated support desk https://withemes.ticksy.com/

Hi, can I use your template to create a design that looks like this http://www.theurelandthomas.com?? For example, the logo in the center of on top, the menu bar on the silver nameplate, product page with a photo and a list of the rest below (http://www.theurelandthomas.com/productos/?), and so on? Thank you!?
Hi Julia111
Unfortunately, at the moment, this theme doesn’t support any shop plugin well. You will have a centered logo at top and menu bar below as is on the demo but product list will be default style of WooCommerce plugin.
Best Regards,
Cuong Tran
Dear Cuong, thanks for the reply! I did not need a shop right now. I need only page with a list of products that make it look like on the sample http://www.theurelandthomas.com/productos/?). And to the overall design of the site it was like – for example, the menu bar on the textural silver nameplate, and so on. Will I be able to create the most similar design on your template? Many thanks!
Hi Julia
Of course, two designs couldn’t be the same so you will need to know CSS to customize for your site looks like desired design. “Most similar” design is an surjective concept so I can not answer this.
In my humble opinion you have to customize many things to make the theme looks like your desired site. However, if you feel two sites look relatively similar, it’s great.
Hope this helps,
Cuong Tran
Hi there – love the theme. Using it for a website/portfolio. I am also pretty new to Wordpress. I know the Simple & Elegant header is a png file. But I want to use a logo and my name as the header, and when I create an image that is 440px, it still looks really small. Two questions:
1. Is there a way to just type in my name there?
2. Is there a way to allow for a larger image size logo?
Sorry if these questions are stupid – still learning!
Hi shannonprentice
I’m glad that you love it and hope that you’ll have best experience with WordPress and my theme
To adjust header logo, please go to Dashboard > Apperance > Customize > Header section to upload your own logo image and enter its dimensions.

Hello,
Slider Revolution Plugin Activation?
Plis
Hi @Okanogan
Slider Revolution can not be activated when it included in a theme. Howerver, you don’t have to activate it because:
1/ You can use it legally because we bought an extended license to assure that all clients who use Simple & Elegant can use Slider Revolution legally.
2/ Once there’s a new version of this plugin, we’ll update the theme so you’ll get the latest version.
Best Regards,
Cuong Tran
Thanks
Hi, i would like to set up the featured image in full width on pages. How can i do that ? Thanks for your help.
Hi @mabgrall
When you select featured image and fullwidth page template, it’s always fullwidth on pages. Fullwidth size is 1080px width.
Could you please tell me more detail about your idea?
Best Regards,
Cuong Tran
Hi @mabgrall
Unfortunately, you can not set fullscreen width for featured image. However, you can add a fullscreen image into your page content by stretch row feature of Visual Compser.
Let follow this instruction:
https://wpbakery.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=3604483thanks i will see what i can do but that means i can’t set up the featured image as i want to..
good afternoon , I am interested in buying the theme but I wonder if it is compatible with WooCommerce shop to install later , thank you very much
Hi @palacinodesigner
Thank you for your interest. At this time, the theme is compatible with WooCommerce but 2 styles don’t match. It means you can use WooCommerce without errors with Simple & Elegant but 2 styles are different.
We’ll add WooCommerce in the future but this time, we have no plans about this implement.
Kind Regards,
Cuong Tran
ok , that is, I can use WooCommerce without errors but will adapt to the style of the template?
Thank you so much
Hi @palacinodesigner
If you use WooCommerce, there’s no errors and the shop style will be default shop style as it is when you install it with Twenty Sixteen.
HI, I am interested in this theme. I have a few questions. Is the portfolio filterable via a dropdown list too?
Hi Beth
Unfortunately, filterable portfolio is not available for this theme. When you click to the filter, it always drive you to the project category page.
Any question is welcome too.

Which post grid have you used on the homepage? can’t find any template of it. Thanks
Hi @sisterlarao
The grid on the homepage was Portfolio element of visual composer. To enable this element, you have to install Portfolio plugin first.
If you’ve installed that plugin, you can add each block by adding a new project at Dashboard > Portfolio > Add New

I also have the same inquiry as dvanderhart. When I make a new page the whole thing is condensed by a good 1/3 of the area, but the footers/headers stretch all the way across. Is that a sidebar sneaking in? I have looked for the solution, but couldn’t sort it out. I would like to adjust the pages to full with as well. I appreciate the info! Thanks —Rebecca , Fireside Arts.
Hi Rebecca. I’m not sure whether you have sam inquiry as dvanderhart or not because he just wants a fullwith blog but you may want a fullwidth page, right?
However, I’ll represent how to make fullwidth blog:
1/ Open simple-elegant/index.php file
2/ Replace
<div id="primary">
by
<div id="primary" style="width:100%;">
3/ Replace
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
by
<?php //get_sidebar(); ?>
Save your file and back to your page.
If you wish to make a fullwidth page, just select “Fullwidth” template right hand side of your editor.
To make it stretched to fullscreen width, please follow this guide
You can always post your question here to get a faster support.

Hi @withemes. I have purchased this theme & I’m hoping to adjust my home page to full width (no right sidebar). I see from your previous comments that it’s possible – can you drop me a quick message and let me know how? Thanks so much! Gorgeous theme, by the way!
Hi @dvanderhart
To make fullwidth blog, please:
1/ Open simple-elegant/index.php file
2/ Replace
<div id="primary">
by
<div id="primary" style="width:100%;">
3/ Replace
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
by
<?php //get_sidebar(); ?>
Save your file and back to your page.
Hope this helps,
Cuong Tran
That worked! Thanks very much!
You’re welcome, man
I was wondering the same about the full width blog!
Hi @arianafalerni. Thank you for your interest. Apologize too for the delay on your reply.
Indeed, this option not included in the customizer but it’s damn easy to turn the blog into fullwidth. It takes 15 seconds. Once purchased, I’ll help you to do so

Considering the Simple and Elegant theme and am wondering if there is an option for a full-width blog post without the sidebar?

Another thing: is it possible to make the photos smaller and to add Trending column to each post body? Thanks!
Hi. Thank you for your interest. For some personal reasons, I can not reply you at this time. Could you please come back next 3 days?
Thank you for your understand.
Hi there! I really liked your template, but I would like to ask you the following: is it compatible with cyrillic alphabet? Also, I need sharing buttons added to each post/category/project, is this available? Another important detail – I need all the pages to look like grid as it is here: http://withemes.com/simple-elegant/portfolio_category/objects/ Please, let me know if this is possible, so I can be able to purchase. Thanks! M.
Hi. Thank you for your interest. For some personal reasons, I can not reply you at this time. Could you please come back next 3 days?
Thank you for your understand.
Sure, thanks!
Hi @mymartinia
1/ This theme supports any kind of font so It’s compatible with Cyrillic Alphabet.
2/ There’s a ton of social plugins that can help you to add to each post/page/project. Of course, you can use them for this template.
3/ Unfortunately, this grid can only applied for portfolio. Blog and post categories are always in standard form. However, if you hire a freelancer, he can help you and this problem is much easier. My theme is very easy to deal with because code is simple & child theme is supported.

Cuong Tran
Hi! I just purchased your theme, and it is beautiful. However it isn’t letting me change the title from “Simple & Elegant” to another name. When I type under site title it acts as though something is changing but nothing happens. Am I missing something? I am very new to wordpress, but hopefully this is an easy fix.
Just realized it’s a png logo. Please ignore. Thanks!

Hello again! I am having a very difficult time understanding how make the revolution slider look as it does on the model theme. My WPBakery Visual Composer plugin also says it needs to be updated and I just purchased this from you a couple days ago. Is that my problem?
I have created a slider – with a few images (jpg) – but I am clueless as to how to plug it into the theme to make it appear on the home page. The only widget options I have on my purchased theme are for the sidebar, and 3 footers. Is there a code for a header option? I just don’t know what to do and am very lost.
Hi mekasiat. For personal reason, I can not response in next 3 days. You can use our support desk. Thank you for your understand.
Hi! Just revisiting this question if you are back! Thanks!
Hi @squidders17
Firstly, we apologize for the delay and thank you so much for your understanding.
1/ To get Revolution Slider sample, you need to use import/export function of this slider. Here’s the documentation: Slider Import. The slider demo file was included in the download package.
2/ You’re currently using Visual Composer v4.8 while the latest is 4.9. The latest version had a big change in the core (all margin, padding system for instance) so we need time to research and integrate it carefully into the theme. The latest version of Visual Composer is coming in soonest time. Don’t worry, there’s no troubles with current version
3/ Please read the documentation of this theme which was included in the download package. Please also navigate to Dashboard > Appearance > Customize to change your site look.
Visual Composer has an online documentation that is very helpful for you.

Pre-purchase question: Will this work with WPML plugin? I’d like people viewing the site to be able to translate it into their own language easily
Hi @TylerBudd
I haven’t tested this theme with WPML plugin but if you wish to test it with WMPL, I can send you a copy so you can test it before purchase it.
Regards,
Cuong Tran
Let’s do that! Thanks for your help Cuong.
