Hi, I would like to change the text that appears at the bottom of the single portfolio pages. It says now next/previous project. I would like to change the word ‘project’ in another word. Could you tell me where this information is coming from so I can change it? Thank you!

Hi there,

The easiest way for this would be to use the Loco Translate plugin which would scan all your words and then you can replace them to any optional word.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art, I installed the plugin but it is a translation plugin without an option to scan words, so I don’t understand how this helps. Can’t you just tell me where the word ‘project’ is loaded from? Thanks!

Hi Mokximo,

To translate/rename theme strings, you can do this via Loco Translate plugin. If you don’t have this plugin, please install and activate it in your WordPress site.

1. Then go to Loco Translate > Manage Translations

2. Click “New Language” for the current active theme (if you didn’t created it yet, otherwise ignore this step). On the new language page, choose these options – click here http://d.pr/i/1ewoc

3. After that you will be redirected to the editing screen for theme translations. Before you continue make sure this is true – click here http://d.pr/i/18h0w

4. Follow these instructions to learn how to translate strings – http://d.pr/i/1jsek

5. The changes will be applied immediately – http://d.pr/i/1ju6w

Note: Translation files will be saved to wp-content/themes/{theme-name}/languages folder. Here you have the explanation – http://d.pr/i/1lBCJ

After you make your changes, always save a backup when there is new theme update. After you update the theme (languages folder will be replaced), just move the backup files you previously saved to the same languages directory and your changes will still be applied.

Is it possible to use the portfolio builder on a custom post type? I’m guessing I can use add_meta_box but what values would it be? Which file is this set in?

Hi there,

Actually the portfolio builder via Visual Composer is only available on Pages and Portfolio Items when the Visual Composer type is selected.

Kind Regards,
Art

Gotcha. So to create another post type that works just like the portfolios (the different presentation options, backend interface, etc.)

Hello! I’d like to use your pre-made template but those options don’t seem to appear, the 1-click Demo Installer. Why can’t I see it in my Wordpress options? Am I missing a plugin or some files? Let me know!

Hi ruthtupe,

Can you please post with the account you bought the theme, this way we can verify that you’re a real customer as we do not offer support to users who doesn’t have “Purchased” badge.

Kind regards,

Hi,

Love your theme and have been thinking about buying it for a while now. Have two questions:

1- Can your fullscreen menu be edited meaning move position of menu options so it can have a much bigger more detailed menu with sub menus also.

2- Can your top menu be edited so it does not push the website page down but instead overlaps. Also can the height of the top menu be adjusted? As above I want to create something like a mega menu.

Thanks,

Hi Villain,

1. The fullscreen menu has some options in it so some essentials can be changed through the Theme Options and some others can only be changed manually.

2. It has to be done manually to not push the page down because this is not included in the theme options, we are planning to include a mega menu in the future update Kalium 2.0 which will be available soon.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello! How can I make the zig zag with quotes portfolio?

Hi there,

At the bottom of the page there is Parameters and Options and there you will find the tabs on the left.

Kind Regards,
Art

thanks! another question… where can i change the body width?

Hi there,

Can you be me more specific about which body width you want to change because the body width is 100%.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi k,

I have 2 question here.

1) my shopping cart is not showing even though I check off the item for” hide cart when cart is empty.”

2) how can i take off the hover animation for the menu.

thank you. my wip link is: wearemhz.com

Hi there,

We don’t have this issue on our theme, and it should work to you too. Can you please disable all your third-party plugins (plugins that don’t come with our theme) one by one, and check if this problem is solved.

Kind regards,
—Ylli

thank you ylli,

how about the hover on the menu, how to turn it off? z

Hi there,

If you’re talking about the underline, you can disable it by pasting this in the Custom CSS:

.main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container.menu-skin-dark div.menu>ul>li>a:after, .main-header.menu-type-standard-menu .standard-menu-container.menu-skin-dark ul.menu>li>a:after {
display: none !important;
}

Hi,

i have a problem with the align of the footer, i found the code here for appen the footer in the body of the page, this code:

footer.main-footer { position: fixed !important; z-index: 99999 !important; bottom: 0px !important; width: 100% !important; background-color: transparent !important; }

But in one page the align works well (footer left and footer right)

http://i.imgur.com/cmyR1kB.jpg

in the other page the alignment is different (footer left ok, but footer right it is moved)

http://i.imgur.com/yQq1SR5.jpg

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you.

Pietro.

Hi Pietro,

Can you please send us your site URL first, so we can investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution.

P.S. make sure you’ve disabled the Maintenance/Coming Soon mode

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art! I just solved.

I investigated a long, the problem was in the “About Page” in “Custom CSS” this class: ”.social-networks {text-align: center !important;}” for align the social network icon in the center of container owerwrite the settings of the social network in the footer.

I delete the class ”.social-networks” and remove the social network icons in the about page (the reason is, I did not want the connections to social networks duplication, only in the footer in my case are sufficient ) and now the footer works well.

Thanks for your patience. Have a nice day.

Pietro.

Hi Pietro,

I’m very glad that you managed to solve the problem :)

If you have this kind of problem again, please check your Custom CSS because we have made some small modifications with CSS for that demo.

Kind regards,

Hello, I created a post grid with Visual Composer. I have two problems: 1. How can I have the post link to a different url other than the post itself. I need it to go to one of the portfolio items or just not link anywhere at all.

2. when the post display within the grid, all the styles and p brakes are lost . Can I do anything to fix this?

Hi there,

1. If you want your post to link to another URL then you have to set the post as External Post and link it to any external URL.

2. Can you please send us your site URL first, so we can investigate your site and then get back to you with possible solution.

P.S. make sure you’ve disabled the Maintenance/Coming Soon mode

Kind Regards,
Art

Got it! Thank you!

You’re welcome :)

Hi,

Thankyou for the great template.

I am having one issue though. If i use your vimeo blog post example and place a youtube video link in it they behave differently. The Youtube post will display the feature image and the youtube video in the post page, so it looks like it is on the page twice.

I would just not add a feature image to youtube videos but i also use the blog posts widget on the front page and without the feature image it does not show any image.

Thanks.

Hi twleross,

Can you please write URL of this exact page here on comments first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you if we have possible solution :)

Kind regards,

Hi there. :)

I’m trying to remove the term “kalium” completely from the code of my site. I already checked “Disable enqueue of style.css of the theme” in the theme options and managed to get rid of most parts, but it still appears in these places:

<link rel="stylesheet" id="kalium-main-css" href=".../assets/css/kalium.css?ver=1.8.7.1" type="text/css" media="all">

-

<link rel="stylesheet" id="kalium-child-css" href=".../style.css?ver=4.4.2" type="text/css" media="all">

-

<body class="...body-lg-skin-kalium-default...">

-

<script type="text/javascript" src=".../assets/js/kalium-custom.min.js?ver=1.8.7.1"></script>

-

Is there any way I can remove “kalium” without breaking the theme (I’m using a child-theme)?

Thanks a lot!

Hi

Actually doing this will require theme customization and you are required to change some core files.

I have added this in our todo list and will provide a better solution in the upcoming updates about this.

For now, you may try to modify files in order to achieve this.


Best regards,
Arlind

Hey Arlind. Thanks for reply! Great, I’ll be waiting for an update then :) Thanks a lot

Hi

Thank you very much for your understanding.

It won’t take long, because we are in the process of builing v1.9 of the theme which will has great new features.


Best regards,
Arlind

Hi There, I created a page based on the default template. With Visual Composer I added a post grid: reveal_effect=”fadeInLab”]vc_basic_grid post_type=”post” max_items=”10” style=”lazy” items_per_page=”20” element_width=”3” grid_id=”vc_gid:1459645270578-c25945b4bfd5bbfdf3f401399a07da87-1”[/vc_row]

Under General>> “Narrow data source”>> I enter the post category I would like to display but is displaying all the categories.

I tried to exclude the posts that I don’t want by going on Data Settings>>Exclude>>Post title but is not working.

What can I do to create a grid where I can display only one group of post of the same category ?

Thank you,

Claudia

You can close this. I got it to work! Thank you!

Hi Claudia,

Glad to here you managed to fix it :)

Dear Team

Thank you for usual support

i have some concerns regarding a matter i couldn’t find a solution for:

1) in my work icon page i want each icon (all three in total) to take me to a specific page example : i want to go to the page web design portfolio when i press the icon or the web design word

2)I want to use the same lay out of the portfolio with sticky description but with different projects

example: when i press the graphic design icon i want to go to the same page design of Ads but i want to ad the logos design section after the ads sections and the sticky description of the Ads will stop and should appear the description of the logos design

in conclusion of this matter : i want to add more than one portfolio item in the same layout like i did in a normal page with web design

Please let me know what i can do

my website is www.rgbe.net

Shall you require any additional info, please don’t hesitate to contact me

Thanks

Tekelo

I didn’t get notified for the support renewal and it was 17$ 2 days ago now it’s 41:30

I was working on my website to make it great but i am facing some issues. i tried hard to find a solution but …....

Please help

Hi Tekelo

1. I am not sure about how do you want to include these icons and where, is it possible to provide a screenshot with annotations and I will check if that is possible for you.

2. Actually only “Side Portfolio” supports sticky description and other items due to their layout type, it is not possible, but you may customize the theme and implement it.

example: when i press the graphic design icon i want to go to the same page design of Ads but i want to ad the logos design section after the ads sections and the sticky description of the Ads will stop and should appear the description of the logos design

This will require theme customization and its out of scope of the support. Actually our theme has everything demonstrated in our demo sites, and if you want to achieve something that is presented there, you can freely ask us and we will do it for you.

If you want to add more portfolio items, the way you did before, you can add them via Portfolio Items element in Visual Composer element, by selecting the products via Taxonomy or one by one.

Hopefully this will help you.


Best regards,
Arlind

Hi, How do you force the home page to include the blog content on the homepage with the show more button? When we include the blog page in the visual composer the show more button does display and neither does the lazy load. Thanks.

All sorted now – thank you.

Hi Visionar,

Glad to hear that :)

Hi,

I gathered all bugs, that I currently have – I would be gratefull, if U could take a short look at them .Unfortunately I haven’t found a way to solve them on my own

1) Can’t add my own webfont- I loaded font file on my server, options in Custom Font menu look this way

Primary font URL: http://curveslines.com/wp-content/themes/kalium/fonts/proximanova-regular.woff

Primary font name: ‘ProximaNova-Regular’, sans-serif

2) No ‘Add to cart’ button – it is missed on single product page http://clip2net.com/3wq267L 3) No categories and no products in Latest items http://c2n.me/3wq2j7q 4) Thin scrolling – that would be cool http://c2n.me/3wiPx9s Currently I have this one http://c2n.me/3wiPIED

I pasted to Custom CSS code, that picked from comments – still doesn’t change it :(

.ps-container .ps-scrollbar-y { width: 5px !important; margin-right: 10px !important; background-color: #898989 !important; }

Hi, i have one problem. I put full image background with “Revolution Slider”, now i wont to put text and social icon above the image like this demo http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/photography/about-me/ but not work for me. I view the image in full screen, the text in a column below and the social icon on the column below. Thank for help me.

Pietro.

I solved. I reset everything and started again. Now I have everything set up the way I wanted. The problem was that I accidentally deleted your custom CSS page in the “About”.

Regards.

Pietro.

Hello, In the theme we have an alternative portfolio page (just showing one category) but if we are in a portfolio item, the 4 little squares button, refer to the portfolio page in the settings (/portfolio) while it needs to go to /portfolio-projects any idea how we can get this to go back to the page the portfolio items were? Thanks!

Hello Rodrigo, thank you for your reply. The page and website I am talking about is: http://tint210.nl/portfolio-projecten/ thanks!

(now it is posted with the right user account).

Hi there,

As I see you don’t have support subscription in your purchase of the theme, you can change these settings where the square links to in the Laborator > Theme Options > Portfolio Settings

Kind Regards,
Art

Looks like we found it! thank you!

Hi tint210,

Glad to hear that :)

Kind regards,
—Ylli

Please just go to Laborator > Theme Options > Portfolio Settings > Portfolio page > Pagination and leave options as in this screenshot.

I’ve styled the freelancer valium to have the menu background orange, the nav links white /and grey on hover. The hamburger nav I can get the bottom and top line orange, however the central line remains grey. Is there a way to do this?

When I add:

@media all { .menu-bar.menu-skin-main .ham { background-color: #fe5000!important; } } It makes the line orange, however, when the menu is showing and the hamburger find is the arrow – it shows an extra line.

O notice that on clicking the hamburger font there is an action that ‘hides’ this line i.e. transparent.

Fixed it – ignore this one! I just removed the @media all and !important

.menu-bar.menu-skin-main .ham { background-color: #fe5000}

Hi there,

Glad to here you managed to fix it on your own :)

Hi Another question re blog posts. How do you get the large header image on blog posts like your demo?: http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/freelancer/fashions-fade-style-is-eternal/

I’ve managed to get it… almost. I can get the featured image full-width, however its not sitting behind the logo and hamburger menu. Its sitting about 50pixels below.

done. One thing for other purchasers is that if you have the wordpress top-bar showing and making changes, it adds a gap between the dropdown nav and featured image. Sign-out and view the page and it looks okay. :)

Hi PetemanSco,

This is how it looks when you are logged in on your Wordpress site.

Glad to hear that your problem is solved now :)

Kind regards,
—Ylli
