Hello! I bought your theme Kalium 5 months ago and I have been happy using it. I updated the Kalium theme 2 weeks ago to the latest version and after that 2 pages on my website (urbend.com) do not appear at all and I don’t know how to fix this bag. Please can you help me with advise or at least can you reference an article how to fix it. Thanks!Jura Here are the links http://www.urbend.com/about-me/ ... and http://www.urbend.com/contact/

Hi,

Have you updated WP and all of our plugins to their latest versions as well?

If you did so, let’s try disabling all your plugins, in order to check if any of them is causing the issue.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Thanks, for a quick response! You’re right there was an issue with one of plugins. In particular, it was the Visual Composer plugin. After updating this everything is working as before. Thanks for help!

Hi,

Good to hear that everything’s in order now :)

I can’t get the revolution slider to install. It just says “Unpacking the package…” but won’t complete the installation. I can’t use the theme without it.

Hi,

I think this may be related to a conflict with your server configuration. Let’s try increasing the memory limit of PHP: https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Increasing_memory_allocated_to_PHP

Hello Laborator, very nice theme. i use your theme for a german page. I could not find how to translate “all” in the portfolio categorie filter. Can you help me? Is it possible?

Thanks Thomas

Hi,

You can translate the website using a plugin like Loco Translate: https://wordpress.org/plugins/loco-translate/

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Hello Rodrigo, thanks for answering. I tried that with the child theme. This does not work. Translating in the main theme now works also in the child theme. Awesome theme.

Thomas

Hi, I purchased your theme “Agency” , Can i activate “Dark Skin” theme on that.

Regards, Ruwan

Hi Ruwan,

You just need to install Main Demo content

(view large version)

and then go to Laborator > Theme Options > Theme Styling > Custom Skin, and activate Dark Skin

(view large version)

P.S: Note that the answer may already be posted so search within the forum before asking a question, there is a chance that you will find the same question answered.

Thanks for your understanding :)

Hi,

It appears Visual Composer is struggling to load and it interferes with the basic page building functionality. For example, with VC properly installed and activated, the VC will fail to load, as will the ‘Parameters and Options’.

When I uninstall VC, the rest of the page editor loads fine but, of course, the code is meaningless and I can’t edit the contents within VC.

Any idea what may be causing this and what I could do to fix this problem?

Thanks for your help.

Hello,

Make sure that you are using both the plugin’s and the theme’s latest versions. Take a look at: http://documentation.laborator.co/kb/general/how-to-update-themes-and-plugins/

If you have both things updated, then you can try disabling all your plugins, in order to check if ant of the other ones is causing the conflict.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Hi there, I’m having problems accessing my Visual Composer. I downloaded the plug-in, it says it’s active, but I see no where to review templates or any other tool VC has. I have the most current update to Kalium. I suspect it is a problem with the Product License. When I click on Product License it says ‘Activate Visual Composer’ and then ‘No Licenses Found’. Under my Envato Toolkit, my Secret API key is updated. If I have VC, could you advise where the Templates are? VC states, “Templates are featured at the Visual Composer welcome page and are accessible by clicking Templates button in Visual Composer top bar and then navigating to “Default templates” tab”. I don’t have a welcome page or bar for VC on my dashboard. Thank you, any help is appreciated.

Glad to hear you figured it out :)

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art, I figured out the map issue but not one of the previous issues. My questions are, can I duplicate my Home Page? You can’t do it with the app you suggested above since it doesn’t appear under ‘Pages’. On the Home page I”m trying to add the animated header to replace the words ‘Blog’ and ‘Test, Test’ (see link for Home Page). Do I have to add the widget in the php.header code? I’m not good at adding code, so I’m hoping you can help. Thanks again. http://trainingrevolution.solutions/

HI there,

You can’t duplicate the homepage because your homepage is showing your latest blog posts, to change that go to Settings > Reading and set the Front page displays to Static and select any of the pages to be your homepage, to add the Slider on your homepage use the Revolution Slider but firstly I would suggest you to read a bit the theme documentation and watch the video tutorials and if you can’t manage to implement the site in your own better import any demo content.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi, Mobile page is default WP look I have Kalium theme

katyareka.com

Hello,

Could you please try disabling all your plugins, in order to check if any of them is causing the issue?

Kind regards,

Hay, I figured it out Jetpack — mobile page plug in

That for quick reply!

How to I add portfolio images to a portfolio item?

Hi,

Please, post this question using the account with which the theme was purchased, so we can verify the purchase and provide you support for it.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Hello. When i try to host Vimeo videos in my portfolio, using either the side portfolio or columned portfolio, there is a blank grey space above the embedded video. I can’t seem to remove this blank space through the visual composer or other means. (Examples images can be found below)

https://www.dropbox.com/s/qfasl8917op0zf7/Screen%20Shot%202016-03-28%20at%2020.53.59.png?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/hi94xs1lxzh6a3e/Screen%20Shot%202016-03-28%20at%2021.27.34.png?dl=0

Hello,

I would like to take a look at that website. I tried to visit it, but it seems to be under maintenance mode. Could you please disable it, so I can check out the issue and find its cause?

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Apologies, maintenance mode has been removed. Thanks in advance, Jim

Hi,

I’m not really sure why this issue occurred. Anyway, it seems that it can be fixed if you write the following code in the field Custom CSS in your dashboard:

.video-as-holder.enabled .video-aspect-ratio {
  display: none !important;
}

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Hello. I’ve installed Kalium and the ‘main theme’ demo to get me started. I can upload images and videos to individual posts/portfolios but when I view my site only the images are visible, the videos aren’t there. This happens if I upload videos directly or if I embed youtube videos. Thanks

Hi itsjt,

You are using an old version of our theme (1.8.6) and the latest version for the moment is (1.8.8.1), please update theme first and then hard refresh your browser and check if your problems are still present.

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

Very Important: Please don’t forget to go to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support.

Kind regards,
—Ylli

Hi, I’ve updated the theme and all plugins I could and hard refreshed my browser, but still no sign of the videos. There was one plug in, ‘Layer Slider’ that is pre-packaged and requires an update from 5.6.2 to 5.6.3. I updated, it says that the plugin has updated and then when I go back to plug-ins updates it’s still at 5.6.2 telling me a I need to update. Thanks

Hi itsjt,

1— Can you please send us your site URL and WP credentials on email? We need to investigate your problem and then get back to you with possible solution.

To send us email use this link and please write us your request again, because we receive a lot of emails on daily basis and we unfortunately can’t remember all customers requests.

P.S: Please note that we usually do not respond to emails that request support, because here is our primary support forum. We use contact form just for sending sensitive information. Also emails response time can be up to 7 business days.

2— As you may have seen on our changelog, if you can’t update LayerSlider, go to Plugins > Installed Plugins and delete LayerSlider plugin then install it from Install Plugins page again. Your current sliders will not be deleted.

Kind regards,
—Ylli

I purchased the Kalium theme because of the Demo site “MAIN.” It is beautiful. When I installed demo content to help me understand how this theme works, I could not see the top video slider content and I don’t understand how to add it in the visual editor. How can I create the top visual slider that is behind the logo and menu that you show in the demo of MAIN?

HI,

Have you inserted the slider element in the content of your page, using the Visual Composer tool?

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Hi. Yes, I see it is there. I did not have to insert. It is set to default slider and the default slider in the imported slider in the RevSlider tool. Also, if the demo content for MAIN was installed successfully, wouldn’t the homepage slider already be there? Can you please help me? I really need to get working and I have spent so much time trouble shooting. Can you have a look please?

Hi,

Could you please send us a temporary admin login to your dashboard to: support@laborator.co

That way, we can check how the page and the slider are configured.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

How is it necessary to make to put several photos in a portfolio ?

Hi,

Could you please provide us a link to the page in the theme’s demo that you are trying to replicate?

So we can take a look at it and give you the instructions that you need.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

I want do a page with photographies like in this page :

http://themes.laborator.co/#theme=kalium

Hi,

The link that you showed us belongs to the homepage of the demo, not to any of the samples.

Anyway, are you trying to create a portfolio like this one? http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/agency/portfolio/

If so, you need to create a new page using the Portfolio page template. Then, in the section “Portfolio->Add New”, you need to create one portfolio post per item in your gallery.

Moreover, take a look at the following guide, which may be helpful: http://documentation.laborator.co/kb/kalium/portfolio-kalium/portfolio-types/

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

Dear Author, i’ve a small issue with folio sorting (using the last version of the theme) 1.8.8.1. The portfolio page doesn’t take count of the custom query settings. It always sorts the items by date of portfolio item creation. here is the portfolio page link. http://www.giulianoottaviani.com/index.php/portfolio/.

Thanks in advance

Hi contattog,

Firstly thank you for improving your rating, it always contributes to better communication so we try our best to keep clients as happy as we can, and of course we only want customers to be satisfied to the same level they have rated the theme.

1. So this is marked as completed, great!

2. After I visited your site I saw the execution time in the end of source code is really high, see here:

<!-- ET: 13.100914001465s 1.8.8.1 -->

This means that it takes more than 13 seconds just to execute the script on your server side, and this happens because you might have any plugin installed and causes delays at server side, so try disabling plugins that are not required in our plugins list and see if the execution time decreases.

To check the execution time simply click View page source (on right click menu) and in the end of page you will see that:

http://drops.laborator.co/1dbT8

3. I was looking for this jump effect but not sure where is that happening, can you please make a video screencast or let me know how can I reproduce this issue?

4. I’ve tried this option and it works fine also in Safari, see the example:

Chrome:

(view large version)

Safari:

(view large version)

The content basically is on center on both screens. If you think I am wrong, then let me know what should I check?


Best regards,
Arlind

Thanks for your quick reply Arlind.

As for the latency i’ve found an issue in my web host, so thanks for noticing me. for the rest you will find a wetrasfer link with

1 a screenshot of the safari pagination issue with the version of safari used in my agency office (it doesn’t show on the newer versions as you stated)

2 a video screen capture with the jump effect ( at the present time i don’t know if it’s a preloading issue due to the latency)

here’s the link https://we.tl/cXdcUCI4rD

best regards Giuliano

Hi Guiliano

I am glad that I’ve pointed you to the right direction about the execution time issue, this also helps us understand that sometimes the delays are caused by host environment.

1. I was trying to install Safari 6 and it doesn’t let me, because it is outdated browser (latest version is 9) and I cannot install it on my mac. However, I was checking the number of users who currently use Safari 6 and it is less than < 0.1% see this screenshot:

(view large version)

Visual Composer team (plugin by our third-party partner) has implemented this and they dropped support for Safari 6 and IE 6-9 versions.

2. It is very strange, I’ve tried to repeat this issue on my browser, and even recorded a video for you, so here it is:

http://drops.laborator.co/14mYw

As you can see, on my side it looks perfectly fine the transition. However I will give you this code and hopefully this will fix your issue:

Apply this code in functions.php

add_filter( 'kalium_lg_options', 'kalium_lg_options_preload' );

function kalium_lg_options_preload( $options ) {
    $options['preload'] = 0;
    return $options;
}

Hopefully this will solve this issue.


Best regards,
Arlind

My TopMenu function for Kalium through the Laborator is not functioning. I think I ruined it when I deleted a widget. Is there code I can insert to repair the TopMenu? I hoped to have a Twitter feed inserted, as in the sample of Freelancer’s TopMenu. But I tried to delete the “Hire Me” sample line and that is when I lost the capacity on TopMenu. You can see I am using the StandardMenu instead currently at WordImageSpirit.com Thanks!

Hi,

Did you modify any of the theme’s source files? In that case, you can replace the modified version with a fresh one, which you can download from the “Downloads” section of your Themeforest account.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo

I’d like to be clear about the download. Are you saying that I download the theme, and then upload the theme again? If I do that, (which I tried) then I am told that I already uploaded the theme. Are you saying (instead) that if I download again, I choose the TopMenu php and replace that on my server in the destination folder where Kalium theme is being hosted?

Hi denipaul

Please make sure on Appearance > Theme Options > Header and Menu you have set these settings:

(view large version)

Then go to Appearance > Widgets and add widgets to Top Menu Widgets:

(view large version)

This should work for you. No need to replace files or something else, just keep the latest update of Kalium.


Best regards,
Arlind

Is it possible to make the Featured Image for a Portfolio Item a slideshow on the Portfolio page of thumbnails? In other words, there are several images inside a few of my portfolio items, I would love to have a scroll of those images on the homepage of the Portfolio instead of only static images in gallery format. You can see that static gallery at WordImageSpirit.com Thanks!

Hi,

I’m afraid this feature won’t be possible, since major code customizations would be needed in order to accomplish it, and we cannot provide that kind of support in these forums.

Kind regards,

Rodrigo
