I am installing your theme and need to set up a Child Theme.

When I do this the theme won’t load at all.

Please advise on the special requirements needed to create a working child theme with your theme.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing!
There are no special requirements, but you should use the child theme that is included with the theme (it contains a js folder with the scripts that you may want to change).
Cheers!

Hi there.

I updated theme today, and I keep getting “saving error” whenever I try to change the theme settings. The only plugins I have are Jetpack, WordFence and Akismet. Are there known issues with any of these?

Why won’t the theme settings save anymore?

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing!
Please make sure that you are using the latest theme and bundled plugins versions. If you still have trouble send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko ) with the WP login details so that we can analyze this situation.
Also it seems that your support period for this theme has expired. According to Themeforest changes of Sep 1st, 2015, we can’t provide support if this period has expired.
You can find more official information from Envato here http://themeforest.net/page/item_support_policy and here http://marketblog.envato.com/releases/item-support-policy-and-functionality-launched/
So, in order to get support, you’ll need a valid Support License/Extension that you can purchase here http://themeforest.net/item/quest-all-purpose-wordpress-theme/4649777
Sorry for the inconvenience, but we have to follow these guidelines to be fair to our customer who’ve purchased extended support and to stick with Themeforest rules.
Thanks!

I actually spoke with Themeforest about the Support situation before, and according to the person I spoke with, since we bought the theme prior to the 09/2015 change, we were supposedly grandfathered into support for life as you originally promised. But since you don’t want to stick to that, we will be fine moving on to another, newer theme.

Not to mention, we are getting all kinds of errors from your theme anyways. Your templates are screwy, the slider is terribly dated & limited and doesn’t work on the shortcode. And the shortcode model you provide is way dated as well. And specifically your blog shortcode is NOT working on a page at all. It gives a “Warning: Illegal string offset ‘bl_icon’ in /home/myaccount/public_html/oursite/wp-content/themes/quest/inc/pirenko_scodes/shortcodes.php on line 1066”. Multiple times. So we’d prefer NOT to deal with a very buggy theme anyways. I guess it makes since, being that the theme is 3 years old, and extremely dated anyways. Sort of glad it errored out, as it reminded us to buy a more recent theme. We would not extend support on something so old.

And by the way, the issue above, was due to “wordfence”. It was blocking the changes. So the fact you aren’t compatible with WordFence is also a big concern of ours.

So thanks for going back on the support issue. But we are moving on anyways. You may want to check those errors out for others who may buy however.

Hello again,
We would like to analyze the save options issue and that is why we asked for the login details. Also, if you are getting other errors why didn’t you shared them here? By the way, as far as we know the illegal offset error you mentioned is already fixed (it happened when you did not had any blog icon assigned to a post).
4 extra notes:
1) Working with shortcodes? Yeah, we don’t like it so much (it was our last theme with this method) and that is why we added a button to help users. As far as we know all of them are working;
2) Limited slider? Yeah we agree, but is does exactly as you see on the theme demo. If you need something more advanced you can install a premium slider;
3) Lifetime support? I never stated that anywhere (other authors can’t say the same). Still I offered support and that is why I asked for login details;
4) The previous comments here don’t mention your save options issue or any other unfixed bugs. Comments are usually positive and the theme average rating shows that;
You are free to switch to another theme, but, once again, we are available to fix any bugs you may find.
Cheers!

Hello,

I’ve been trying to look if I could do it myself. But I can’t seem to find a solution… Is it possible that I can get a search form/bar in the top menu bar rather than a menu? If so, how can I do this?

Regards, Ahmed

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing!
You can try and edit the header.php file for that. If you still need help, please send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko ).

Strange characters are shown in the of the Testimonials: –

and are showing fine. So I’m a bit clueless what’s wrong.

There is a bug. When team members image has mouseover event, the image moves to the left.

How do you prevent the image from moving? Making the image a large width is not an option or a resolution to this bug.

Hi, please send us a private message with a link so that we can analyze this situatuin. Cheers!

I do have a other question, after doing some resesrch, it seems that on single slide images, in order to make the text permanent, I need to change the main.js. im comfortable doing this but have a couple questions.

1. I use Godaddy and their managed. Is there a way you are aware of to simply change the main.js from there? Or do i need to change it in the theme package?

2. When/if you update the theme, will it overwrite the main.js? Deleteing my change?

3. Is there an easier/more permanent fix? To this solution.

Thanks!

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! Here are our comments:
1) You need to edit the files via a file manager (don’t know if Godaddy has that) or FTP
2) Yes
3) You can try adding some custom CSS to the theme options. If you need help with this, please send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko )
Cheers!

Hi! Beautiful theme, and I can’t wait to start using it. I did the one click installation to get the sample pages, but didn’t get a sample page for the “About Me” page. Looking through the different options, I can’t seem to find the template/layout for that section. Any help?

Thanks!

So it won’t let me edit my comment, but through some trial and error I have mostly figured it out.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing!
Ok, let us know if you need any further assistance.
Cheers!

Hi,

How do you prevent the homepage slider from pausing on mouseover?

Thanks.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! We need to edit the main.js file for that. Please send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko ) and we will help you.

Hi,

I have no idea how to create a page with a homepage slider. I tried editing the Quest Homepage that comes with the theme, but I do not see anywhere to change the slideshow or what group of slides to use.

I even checked the documentation and it says to choose Show Slideshow at the top of the page, but there is no Show Slideshow at all. How do I create a page with a homepage slider and choose what group of slides to show?

Thanks.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! Different page templates have different options… On the right side panel please select the “Page – With Sections” template and save. After this you will see some extra options under the page content.
Cheers!

Hi,

I do now see the slideshow options now, however, the rest of the page is now left aligned and no longer the correct width.

Before, there was a max-width and the latest work section would expand to that full width along with the rows (3 latest work would be the full width of the section but now 3 latest works are left aligned with empty space on the right), but now everything just seems to be on the left side.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

We need to analyze the page content. Please send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko ) with the WP login details so that we can analyze this situation.

Do you know of any potential issues that may come up when using this theme with WP security plugins such as WordFence? Thanks!

Hi, thank you for reaching us! The theme is compatible with that plugin. Cheers :)

Hi,

Is there any option to decide the time the text appears in the quest slides custom options? I would like to have it permanently.

Thank you,

Ana

My email is erroring out from the contact page. I receive “Email Failure. Please try again.()”

alpha3technologies.com/contact/

All email accounts work. Not sure what to check.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing!
Probably your hosting plan is blocking sending emails via the wp_mail function. You should get in touch with them to remove this restriction.
You can also try and install the free plugin Contact Form 7 that has alternative ways to send emails.
Cheers :)

Hi how can i find demo content (xml) for Quest Theme

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! Please send us private message and we’ll send you that file. Cheers :)

Hey

I am looking to upload the Quest theme EXACTLY as it is in the live preview. This will allow me to figure out by looking at the page builder layout/code how to use the theme and navigate all the features without contacting you 100 times for trivial things like how to put a map on the contacts page.

Can you please advise on how to do this? The site is currently not in this format – www.conroyperformance.ie

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! Please send us a private message (contact form on this page http://themeforest.net/user/pirenko ) and we’ll help you with that.
Cheers!

Quest is listed as compatible with WooCommerce 2.4, but I’m getting this notice after updating to WooCommerce 2.4.6 and WordPress 4.3:

“Your theme (Quest) contains outdated copies of some WooCommerce template files. These files may need updating to ensure they are compatible with the current version of WooCommerce. You can see which files are affected from the system status page. If in doubt, check with the author of the theme.”

The online store seems to be working fine when I add a product and head to checkout, but any thoughts on the template file notice?

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! An update will be available in the next 24h to clear that message. Still, the theme should be working perfectly with WooCommerce. If you need a quick fix please send us a private message.
Cheers :)

Hi,
The update is now available. Cheers!

hey

i uploaded the theme to the wrong site address (conroyperformance.ie/wp). Then deleted it and reuploaded it to conroyperformance.ie.

Originally the theme was set to how it was in the preview (with slider, menu bar etc) and the 2nd time it changed. What has gone wrong here? and how do I reset this, as customizing the first option will be far easier.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing! We don’t know what is the exact problem that you are having. All we can say is that the sidebar widgets are set under Appearance>Widgets and the homepage is set up under Settings>Reading.
If you still need help please send us a private message with a link and describe what you need help with.
Cheers!

HI – I downloaded your Quest theme and don’t see where in the options I can change the clients that are on the main page and the icons/text in the main page. Please advise.

Hi, thank you for purchasing! You need to edit the page content for that. If you still need help please send us a private message with a link. Cheers!
