I bought this theme when it first came out and after many many months and maybe even years….I find this one to always look smooth and perfect. Great work!

Hi!

I’m glad to hear that, thanks! :)

Alin

Is it possible to have the pages be the same color of the main side bar with white fonts as the body copy?

Yes, you can achieve that using some custom CSS.

Hi. Can you tell me where can I find “Theme Option”? Is some settings that I need to make in order to make this show up. This is not my first time I am installing a wordpress template. I don’t find this feature in my wordpress administration panel: http://help.pixelgrade.com/support/solutions/articles/140259-theme-options-general-options

Is weird cause after I installed the template I don’t find the Theme Option panel just like you have in your USER GUIDE pdf file

Hi,

Sorry for the delayed response. From the latest theme version we’ve made some major improvements on Lens theme and now all theme and style options can be found in the Live CustomizerAppearance > Customize. Make sure you installed and activated Customify plugin before that.

We’re updating the documentation these days so there will not be inconsistencies anymore.

If you have other questions I recommend using our dedicated HelpDesk by opening a private ticket.

Thanks,
Alin

hi there – the fonts aren’t loading properly here: http://www.chimney.net/__wp/products/chimneys-and-gas-vents/

nav font is supposed to be PT Sans Narrow… getting a “blocked” error on a Google Fonts JS file in all browsers as well…

correction: only a few of the “Standard Fonts” are working – why?

Hi!

Not sure what’s happening on your website, but it might be helpful to open a ticket on our HelpDesk, in order to be able to investigate it further.

Thanks,
Alin

Hello, there are some bugs in the new Version! 1. Main Logo Size (can be fixed by custom css code) 2. fixed Font-Family for Slider-Count 3. Fixed Color for Social Menu Icons hover 4. Fixed atthis Icons hover-color

-> i tried to fix it at custom css, but nothing works…

1 and 3 solved by custom css…

Hi!

Sorry for the delayed response. As long as I know there are no problems, can you tell me what have you tried to achieve?

Thanks,
Alin

Hi Guys. As I see, there is a new update (2.3.2). My version is 2.2, but I can’t update, because there is not aviable on wordpress site (it shows everything is up to date, and no new updates) How can I update in other way? (I maybe can add the theme again, but I fear that my options will be gone :/)

Hi there!

Please try to manually update the theme via FTP for this time. Here’s an article that might help – Updating the theme. Follow the method called Using a FTP software.

Cheers,
Alin

Feature Request – It would sure be helpful to be able to “re-order” the galleries.I would rather have the latest galleries be at the top of the gallery index page.

I believe I updated to 2.3.2 correctly and on my gallery page there is spacing now between galleries. http://www.robertbaker.photography/galleries/

Hi!

There is a plugin that might help you to simply order the galleries – Simple Custom Post Order. As for the spacing issue, you may know that updating the theme couldn’t cause something like that. Make sure you didn’t make other recent changes in your theme.

I noticed your support period expired, if you need further help you may know that you can renew it at any time, read more about .

Thank you,
Alin

Thanks for the tip on the Simple Custom Post Order….Personally I think this new Support Period is 100% bullshit. (I realize not your battle, it is an Envato war) I am just going to implement a new theme if I cannot figure out the spacing problem.

Hi. Can you tell me how can i remove the name of the picture from the website. I don’t want to show the name of the picture over the slideshow. Thank you

Hey, there!

You can disable the option that displays the Titles and Captions in Pop-up and Sliders by going to Appearance > Customize > General.

Thanks,
Alin

hi, looks like an awesome theme, however trying to install demo and I don’t have pixelgrade menu on my wordpress menu so no import button :) little bit of help maybe? thanks

Hey there!

Thanks for the kind words! :) You can find Import Demo button by going to Appearance > Customize > Theme Options.

Best,
Alin

I found it, in fact docs are outdated. Thanks ;)

We’re planning to update the entire documentation soon. :) Thank you!

Inside the theme I am offered update v2.3.2—here in the Discussion area you offer/promote v2.3.3 Shouldn’t I have the later (march 18th) version?

Hey,

The latest version of the theme is 2.3.2, as you can see on the changelog too: https://pixelgrade.com/demos/lens/assets/changelog/

I cannot see any place to say that we’re having a 2.3.3 version for the theme.

Thanks,
Radu

Yes, as I wrote, I knew 2.3.2 was right when I saw the change log. On the page shown under the “Item Details” tab above, the yellow numerals on the left end of the bar at the top had said (when I wrote the comment just above) “2.3.3” which is why I asked the question about which version I should upgrade to. Now the numerals are right – which is good! Got corrected. I wrote back right away to show your other customers that you were giving them the right upgrade. I am glad the graphic header got corrected. Version 2.3.2 is working well for my viewers on Windows and OSX.

Thanks for the explanations, Jonathan! :)

I’m glad to hear it’s working for you now.

Cheers,
Alin

Hi there,

there is a way to inserti the gallery in a different page? there is a shortcode?

Cheers!

Hey MrGun!

I’m not sure what gallery would you like to insert in a page. Are you asking about the default WordPress galleries which can be inserted into a page using Media Uploader? Read more about this.

Let me know if this is what you are looking for.

Thanks,
Alin

Hey Alin,

Of course I know about the wp galley, but I meant the “lens gallery”, so I have this gallery http://upperground.net/lens_galleries/gallery/ created by theme function and I want to add it in an other page http://upperground.net/about/. Is it possible?

Cheers!

That’s not possible, sorry.

What happened to the Social Badges in the menu area? After I updated, they disappeared?

Hey!

Starting with version 2.3.0 we’ve rewritten large parts of the theme and one of the changes we brought is that we removed social icons old option system in favour of a Social Menu. In this screenshot you can see how to set up the new social menu.

Hope it helps.
Alin

Thanks. The other way was better and looked better! Letting people’s eyes naturally deviate to a recognizable social icon is better than having to search and dig for a link that gets lost in the menu with all of the other links.

Sorry, maybe my message was not complete. That social menu is actually displayed as social icons (see screenshot). You can see that on our demo site too.

Hey!

You can try flushing the permalinks and see if it helps. To do that, go to Settings > Permalinks and just hit the Save Changes button.

I noticed your support period has expired. In order to get further support, you can renew it from here at any time.

Thanks,
Alin

so, if i not buy support, you cannot answer me ? :(

PS: not working, still says, 404 not found

Hi, PixelGrade; you mentioned above that you have a child theme in the LENS template structure. Do we need to do anything with the template files to make use of the child theme you gave us (or made available with the files we download…) Or is that what we control with the Customify plug-in so we never have to “get our hands dirty” coding a child theme structure?

Thank you for continuing to support the LENS theme. My customers and prospects will see my LENS-driven site soon and I think they will like it.

Hey, Jonathan!

I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying Lens! _

The main purpose of a child theme is that you can modify and add to the functionality of that parent theme without modifying it directly. If you don’t plan to perform major adjustments within the theme’s files (change something within its source files, that is), then you can simply use the power of the Customify plugin to style your website.

Have an awesome weekend! :grin:
Alin

Hi, How do I add tags to projects? posts and pages can have it. But is not available for projects

Hi!

How do I add tags to projects

The projects structure does not include tags, sorry.

Alin

This theme is awesome, perfect for my client. Can I create a child theme with this theme? There are some changes that I want to make.

Hey!

Can I create a child theme with this theme?

Lens theme comes with a Child theme included so you can use it as you need! :)

Thanks,
Alin

Hi Guys. Brilliant theme – really tidy. One question though. I’m not getting the option to change/even see the theme options panel by Pixel Grade – any ideas? Cheers

Hey!

I’m glad to hear you’re enjoying it! In order to access all the theme options, make sure you installed and activated Customify plugin and then go to Appearance > Customize. Read more about our theme customizer here.

Cheers,
Alin

Hello

This is indeed one of the best themes on Envato, but still, before I decide to buy it I have a question…Is it possible to somehow hide the menu in the Fullscreen gallery view? The menu competes with the image and I would like to hide it completely.

Thanks Karol

Hey Karol!

Thanks for your kind words! :)

Yes, you can use a simple CSS snippet to hide the menu on the fullscreen gallery page, if you need to!

Alin
