Hi, I have a problem with the start page, the home..the page load to infinite and don’t show the page..why?
If you’re working on WP 4.5.x, please make sure you’ve the latest update of the theme (1.2.8) and the latest update of Visual Composer (4.11.2.1).
Having problems replacing preloader
I’ve followed your instructions, given to another user
«« You can replace the loader animation with your image by adding the filter below to your child theme:
function flora_custom_page_loader(){
return ‘ ’;
}
add_filter( ‘flora_page_loader’, ‘flora_get_page_loader’ );
Also, add the custom CSS below to the main stylesheet (style.css) in the child theme:
preloader .custom-loader {
display: block; margin: auto; text-align: center; position: absolute; left: 50%; top: 50%; -webkit-transform: translate3d(-50%, -50%, 0); transform: translate3d(-50%, -50%, 0); } »»
But I’m having the following error showing up: « call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, function ‘flora_get_page_loader’ not found or invalid function name in …/wp-includes/plugin.php on line 235 »
Would like to use an animated gif instead of the css/js animations included. Have changed the “src” in order to point to my file on the server.
Thanks
Please replace that code with the new one below:
function flora_get_page_loader(){
return '<span class="custom-loader"><img src="http://wydethemes.com/flora2/wp-content/themes/flora/images/logo/side-logo.png" /></span>';
}
add_filter( 'flora_page_loader', 'flora_get_page_loader' );
I’m running the latest update of the theme as well as Wordpress. For some reason my top navigation menu has disappeared, and my image galleries are not loading. Any help would be appreciated! www.nuvoimages.com
Hi,
I just visited your site and looks like it’s working fine. I can see the top navigation and your image galleries. I suppose this is a caching problem, after you update the theme please clear your browser caches and empty all server caches if you have a cache plugin.
Dear team,
At the Title Area, even I set the Scrolling Effect to None, but it still scroll… is this a bug?
regards, vic
It’s working fine on our sites. The options in Theme Options -> Title Area are just default settings, please make sure you’ve set the settings in Flora Options for individual page to “Default” to use the default settings or set it to “None” to disable it.
If it still doesn’t work, please send us your site URL via a private message -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact
Dear team,
If I were to add a 50% transparent background at the top menu during desktop mode, what is the CSS I shall add?
The reason is due to, the top menu can’t be seen due to some background image having strong contrast.
regards, vic
I fixed this myself. Thanks.
Glad to hear that you’ve figured it out.
Hola! Would you like to receive automatic updates and unlock premium support? Please activate your copy of Visual Composer.
what is this message?
You can ignore that message, it’s just notifying users to register the product license that is available for users who have purchased this plugin individually. You can normally use this plugin without registering a purchase code since it came bundled with the theme.
thanks. http://mam2apo.minibird.jp/ this is my site. internet explorer is good. but crome is freezing. click any link. and freezing. and i push F5. what is this problem?
i think this is cache problem. forgive me….
Happy to hear that the problem has been resolved 
Hi, is the latest update of FLORA compatible with WP 4.5.2. The visual composer pre-bundled doesn’t work after updating wordpress to 4.5.2
Hi,
Yes sure it can work with WP 4.5.2. Our demo sites are also running on WP 4.5.2 and everything works fine. Please make sure you’re using the latest update of Visual Composer (4.11.2.1) that came bundled with the latest update of the theme (1.2.8).
- I’ve setted a custom structure for permalink in my site. Now this custom structure is applied also in portfolio items. Is it possible to keep portfolio items in root? I’d like to have www.mysite.com/blog/article for blog and www.mysite.com/portfolio/itemname for portfolio.
- I’ve found some problems with the left menu in mobile browser: in the home page the menu cannot be scrolled, when I open other pages it works fine (I’ve found this problem in Safari on iOS, Chrome on Android works fine).
- Other problem in mobile version: in Chrome on Android when I click in the menu icon it recognize the click on the logo and the open the home page. It’s very hard to point the menu button. On Safari it works fine
- On mobile (both iOS and Android) footer is not visible
- I’ve tried to change the preload image based on the code you’ve suggested in previous comments. The image is loaded fine but in the top of the screen. I’ve tried various css codes for putting it in the middle but I’ve strange behaviour and I was not able to put in the same position of your loader. Do you have any suggestion?
- I’ve added a custom font, is it possible to load it in the font slection menu in order to use it as default in various elements like H1, H2, and so on? Now I apply it via custom css but have it loaded in the list will permit me to use also in visual composer, menu, slider, etc. In immediate I need to use my font in slider revolution, but have it available everywhere would be good.
- Is it possible to change “portfolio-category” and “portfolio-skill” slug?
- I really like the picture in the “About me” of your example. I would like to make a similar picture in the site that I am creating. But I have noticed that in the smartphone version the woman face is completely cut. What do you suggest to properly align the photo on the mobile version?
Sorry for sending you a lot of question
and I hope that my poor english is enough to explain clearly what are my needs.
Thanks in advance for your support!
Fabio
Hello,
We apologize for taking so long to get back to you!
1. Unfortunately, by default WordPress has no individual permalink settings for each post type. If you set the custom structure to “www.mysite.com/blog/article”, We suppose your pages are also in ”/blog/page”, and your portfolios will be in ”/blog/portfolio-item/portfolio”. Maybe, you’ll need to setup custom rewrite rules for your blog posts in .htaccess instead.
2. Just tried it on your site with iPhone, it’s working fine.
3. We’ve tried it with Chrome on Android phone, it seems to be working fine.
4. This is a bug of AJAX Page since it loads only the main content (without header and footer) so if you hide the footer on home page and navigate to another page the footer will not show up. This issue has been fixed in the next update that will be released in a few days.
5. Try the custom CSS below:
#preloader > div {
position: absolute;
z-index: 9999;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
top: 50%;
-webkit-transform: translateY(-50%);
transform: translateY(-50%);
}
6. You can use your fonts in slider revolution, it allows you to input font name directly to the font field even it is not available in the font list. But you can’t in Visual Composer and Theme Options -> Typography since it couldn’t allow you to add any font to the font list.
7. There is no option for these. Only portfolio-item can change in Theme Options -> Portfolio.
8. You can add custom CSS to Page Settings
Edit the page and click on Page Settings,
Add custom CSS add below:
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
.title-wrapper .bg-image {
background-position: right top;
}
}
Hello,
thanks a lot for your answers and don’t worry for the delay, there was a lot of question 
- Thanks, but I think that’s not completely true: I’ve another plugin for manage a calendar (Tribe Events Calendar), in this case even if I have a custom structure for permalink, appointments still remain in root. I’m not an expert on WP development, I’m just a self-taught for my needs and I like to investigate in the code. Doing it with the rewrite is possible, but all links generated by WP will be still wrong and I need to make a webserver side replacement of the HTML code generated, I don’t know if it can impact in performance.
- I’ve tried to make a video for showing the issue: https://mega.nz/#!AAQCRZAQ!2STbxJZALhjKnb8ceUFa9Oa1S5-LfcYDmtTcbzeApuk. I’m using an iPhone5 with iOS 9.3.2
- See this video: https://mega.nz/#!AQIRiTLI!-MsvuyGssBW3dL_HSTtq9iEtuEvkJ-saUKZ9tpHpqOI it seems that if you don’t click precisely on the menu, it click on the logo and then open the home page. On iOS I don’t have this problem. Tested with Chrome 50.0.2661.89 on Android 5.1.1 (Huawei P8 Lite). I know that P8 lite touch is very sensible but on the native Android browser it works better.
- Thanks, I’ll wait the next update
- Thanks, now it’s perfectly centered on the page. Just on Chrome/Android I see the icon in the top left corner, I will investigate on this.
- For visual composer I’ve found this solution, by adding this code to function.php on my child theme:
/** Add Font to Visual Composer */ function get_google_fonts( $fonts ){ $fonts[] = json_decode('{"font_family":"Caviar Dreams","font_styles":"regular,italic,bold,bold italic","font_types":"400 regular:400:normal,400 italic:400:italic,700 bold:700:normal,700 bold italic:700:italic"}'); asort($fonts); return $fonts; } add_filter( 'vc_google_fonts_get_fonts_filter', array($this, 'get_google_fonts'), 100 );I was inspired by the code inshortcodes/class-shortcode.php. If you’ve a suggestion for doing the same on the theme option I’d be grateful. I’ve checked on the code to see if I could find something but I did not succeed. - Noted, maybe you chan think to add this feature for future release, it will be useful for CEO purpose.
- Thanks, the suggested css code looks very fine!
Thanks once again for your patience and high level of support. I’ve very appreciate it!

wp-content/plugins/wyde-core/wyde-core.php, line 156
change:
'rewrite' => array(
'slug' => sanitize_title( $portfolio_slug ),
),
with:
'rewrite' => array(
'slug' => sanitize_title( $portfolio_slug ),
with_front => false,
),
And do the same for all portfolios taxonomies.
with_front define if permalink will follow the permalink structure (default) or not: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type
I’m now trying to understand if it’s possible to change the rewrite on the functions.php on my child theme in order to not change the core code but at the moment I was unable to make it working. If you have suggestion they’re welcome 
Thanks
Hello, again for the 1st and 7th point: I was able to solve using function.php in my child theme.
For reference this is the code that I’ve used, maybe can be useful for other users.
For change the rewrite of portfolio and put portfolio pages in root:
add_filter( 'register_post_type_args', function( $args, $post_type ) {
if( 'wyde_portfolio' === $post_type && is_array( $args ) )
$args['rewrite']['with_front'] = false;
return $args;
}, 99, 2 );
For do the same in taxonomies and change the slug:
add_filter( 'register_taxonomy_args' , function( $args, $taxonomy, $object_type) {
if ( 'portfolio_skill' === $taxonomy && is_array( $args ) ) {
$args['rewrite']['with_front'] = false;
$args['rewrite']['slug'] = 'portfolio-caratteristiche';
}
return $args;
}, 99, 2 );
I’ve found this solution on Stackexchange
Do you have any update for mobile problems (point 2 and 3 on my first message)? Thanks
Regards, Fabio
Great job! Happy to hear that you’ve figured it out.
For the mobile menu issue on both iOS and Android, we’re working on this so it will be fixed in the next update.
Thank you so much for taking the time to report this issue.
Hi Wyde, can you tell me why on this page : http://www.as-serrurerie.com/ The header is going crazy, and say to me fuck off, i add padding whenever i want and dont activate trasparent header.
regards.
There is a padding at the top of the first row, you should set the Padding Size of the row to No Padding so your slider will completely full the screen.
Hi, i already do that, also the header is not transparent.
Ok i got it, you have to set 0 on the row but not the column too, or you have a bug. But still, my slider is now showing a bit of the page on the bottom.
You don’t need to manually set the padding in Design Options, just change the Vertical Padding Size option in the row settings to No Padding so it will set both the top and bottom to 0.
Hi wyde,
i set the setting like you say and remove settings in design options. But it’s still not full-screen.
Regards.
Not sure it’s was not blank as i dont put anything there mself, but it’s working like a charm now ! Thanks ! Those padding are a little bit confusing as i’m use to set it with VC and not options that come with the theme.
The error 1 is coming from the theme i guess, since the code in question is not editable by users and before content.
Error 2 is cache, not related.
Error 3 and 4 is coming from Vela Heading module.
Regards.
The first is just a warning that you have no heading text in the section. If you’d like to remove this warning, just simply add a Title element or Custom Heading element to that section.
Exactly 3 and 4 come from the Vela Heading element, thanks for reporting it we will fix it in the next update.
Hi Wyde,
unfortunatly for the 1, i cant add any heading to that section, since that section is before VC come into place.
regards.
My apologies, looks like that section is a slider section. So you should add H2 to the revolution slider instead. As you can see you already have the heading text on slider but it is not in the correct heading tag. You should replace the old text with
<h2>L'AS DE LA SERRURERIE</h2>
I am adding a secondary image gallery to a portfolio entry, is there a way to activate the same Flora style lightbox mode for images in an embedded wordpress [gallery] shortcode within a portfolio entry?
Unfortunately, there is no lightbox for the default WordPress gallery. Please use the Image Gallery element from Visual Composer elements window instead. You can enable Visual Composer on portfolio post in Visual Composer -> Role Manager, change the Post types to Custom and select wyde_portfolio so you can build portfolio post with the Visual Composer page builder.
Thanks Wyde, that is a good option! Unfortunately the wyde_image_gallery distorts the size of the gallery thumbnail images, stretching them too high or too thin instead of using the correct set sizes. Any ideas on that problem?
Exactly, the masonry layout of image gallery is a fixed layout (patterned), it will stretch the images to fit within each block in the layout. Maybe you should choose the Grid layout to display the square images instead. Also, you should select the Image Size option to suit the layout you selected.
Grid Layout (with or without space) also displays the incorrect (vertically stretched) thumbnail image size. Perhaps it is a bug or css somewhere overriding image gallery thumbnails?
Please make sure you also select the Image Size option in Image Gallery Settings window as square size. Also, your uploaded images should be larger than the display size.
If it still doesn’t work, maybe there was something wrong or plugin conflict, please send us your site URL in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact we’ll need to investigate this issue on your site.
Hi since VC 4.7 we are able to define some row to be “full height” and it would be amazing that flora support that, since it could sometimes help not using RevSlider and speed up websites in the process.
Could you un-hide this feature ? Or give us a way around it ?
Regards.
Hi,
The Flora theme has no Full Height option for the row since it is not in the theme features and design.
As you know this theme uses its own custom elements and features. And there is no JS and CSS from VC included in the frontend of the theme so other elements and features from VC will not work on this theme.
I’m sorry but we couldn’t enable this feature since the theme doesn’t support it.
Kind regards.
Hi please can you help. I need to get rid of a top header bar and I want my logo and menu appear over the Revolution Slider (without a white section at the top) I’ve tried everything I could think of. Please please help. Andre
Hi,
Please follow these:
1. Edit the row container of slider, change the Content Width option to Full Width and change the Vertical Padding Size to No Padding.
2. In Flora Options -> Header at the bottom, change the Transparent Header option to Enable.
Hi I just did a wordpress update on this theme and I lost my Revolution Slider and it refuses to work without a purchase code. Since this came bundled with the theme, I don’t have a purchase code for this plug in. How do I get around this issue?
Hi,
You can use the Slider Revolution plugin normally without registering a purchase code, you can ignore any message that notifies you to activate or register the product license since this option is available for users who have purchased this plugin individually.
After you update the theme, if there is a new update available for this plugin you will see a notification message at the top of the page to update it. If you have Flora 1.2.8, you should have the Slider Revolution 5.2.5 that is the latest compatible version that came bundled with the theme.
Hey! We’re almost there! One last question (I hope!)...I got everything built and migrated over to my home url and everything looks amazing on my 27” monitor but tests on S7 and Iphone are all jacked up…Guessing I am missing some setting? Thanks so much again for your constant help and patience with this guys that is just a photographer (and not a web-designer:). www.junghansimages.com
Hi,
As you can see, your social icons are in different columns so they will be stacked on mobile. You should add them in the same column in a row as below:
1. Change the row layout to 1 column and make sure all icons are in the same column. 2. Change the Text Alignment option in column settings to Center. 3. Remove all padding and margin settings from column settings.
If it still doesn’t work, you can send us your admin login credentials in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact so we can help you figure it out.
Hi Wyde! I have a couple of questions regarding my page with Flora theme. It has been working well for a while and I am very happy with it, but lately it takes a long time to load. I have tried updating all the plugins, but I am having trouble updating WPBakery Visual Composer, it says I should activate my licence, but when I click on the link settings it shows me this:”You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
Will installing a theme update take care of it? Also, when I install an updated theme file, does it reset the settings made on my site? I do not want to loose my work, of course. Is it possible you take a look at my website, if you have any idea what is causing the slow loading… The site URL is: www.populus-co.dk I have also spoken with my hosting provider and he assured me everything is working fine from their side. Thank you very much for your support and help, Kind regards, Luka
p.s. Wyde, I have just noticed that the site logo and menu do not load in header. I would appreciate some advice on this also. p.s. Should I upload the updated theme via FTP client? Thank you. Best, Luka
There is a bug in the old version of the Visual Composer plugin that prevents users updating via the theme, you’ll need to deactivate and delete this plugin from Plugins page before installing a new one that came bundled with the theme.
Since your site is a One Page site and there are many sections on your front page so it can take a few seconds to load. You can turn off Preload Images in Theme Options -> General to disable images preloading.
Regarding the logo and menu in the header, I just visited your site and it’s working fine. You’re using the Expand Navigation so your menu will show when you click on a hamburger menu to expand it.
Also, the theme updating will not affect your current data and settings, please follow the instructions in our documentation so you can update the theme without losing changes.
Hi Wyde! Thank you for your reply. Yes, the logo and the menu (hamburger icon) are okay now, I have found the information on how to update theme files properly, so I updated the theme and this took care of logo and menu not showing. I have also updated the VC plugin according to your advice and it is okay now. Thank you!
Hi,
Thanks for your response. I’m happy to hear that the problem has been resolved 
Hi, I have used Info Box, but I do not want the “READ MORE” button at the end, how do I get rid of it. Thanks
Also, in my portfolios, on a tablet, the icon (9 circles – see attached screenshot) links to Wyde Template, how do I edit/delete this? https://drive.google.com/file/d/0By4zuHSDx-8dV0RaNXlaaG8tem8/view?usp=sharing
Hi,
The Info Box will display the Read More button when you set the URL (Link) option. You can remove the link or set it as blank to remove the Read More button.
Regarding the home icon on the portfolio page, you can set the link in Theme Options -> Portfolio -> Portfolio Single Post -> Portfolio Home Page.
Perfect, thanks!
Hi there,
Currently site working fine, however when you size down for mobile/tablet the menu bar along the top does not load. This issue ONLY happens on my homepage: http://otagoartsociety.co.nz/
thanks
Hi there,
Looks like you hide the header on the home page so it will not show on mobile. You should edit the home page to change the Header option to Show.
Hi there I’m having issues with the whole VC update thing too. I also followed your answer about deleting it but it doesn’t give me a window to get the update from the theme. I get a window saying my VC Quform needs VC to run but when I click that it takes to me the purchase VC page. Thanks!
Hi there,
Please make sure you’ve followed all below steps:
1. Update the theme to the latest update that comes with the latest update of Visual Composer plugin.
2. Go to Plugins page, deactivate the Visual Composer plugin and delete it from your site. Also, if you have any other VC add-ons such as VC Quform and couldn’t delete the VC from your site, you’ll need to deactivate those plugins before deleting.
3. After you delete it, you will see a notification message from the theme at the top of the page, click on “Begin installing plugins” in this message to install the new one that came bundled with the theme.
However, if the notification message was dismissed, you will not see the above message you should navigate to Appearance > Install Plugins to see the recommended plugins list and install them.
For more details on how to install the bundled plugins, please follow the instructions in our documentation (in the theme updating section).
If it still doesn’t work, please send us your site URL and admin login credentials in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact
Greetings! I’ve loved using this theme for my website, thanks for a great product!
I’ve been having trouble with the Visual Composer. I wasn’t able to update it, so I followed the previously answered advice about deleting it and then re-installing it. It works fine now, but when I try to click on the link in the message at the top of the window:
“Hola! Would you like to receive automatic updates and unlock premium support? Please activate your copy of Visual Composer.”
It brings me to a page that says this:
“You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
Help?
Please make sure you’ve followed all below steps:
1. Update the theme to the latest update that comes with the latest update of Visual Composer plugin.
2. Go to Plugins page, deactivate the Visual Composer plugin and delete it from your site.

Hi, I have a conflict with the bundled Visual Composer and a version of the Visual Composer I purchased separately recently (to obtain direct support for that plugin).
Essentially the bundled plugin appears to be preventing the newly purchased plugin from working. I have uninstalled the old VC and had the makers of VC take a direct look at my site.
Currently this means I cannot add elements to pages or posts using the backend or frontend uses of the plugin.
Given that, how do I remove the bundled plugin to prevent it from causing a conflict with the new VC I am looking to use with Flora?
Thanks.
Hi,
The bundled of Visual Composer in this theme is the same one as you’ve purchased separately. This plugin allows any theme to add/remove the elements via the plugin APIs. We’ve never modified this plugin directly but we just disable some elements since the theme has its own custom elements that you can use instead of the default ones from this plugin. This is for improving the theme performance since the default elements and features from this plugin come with a ton of CSS and JavaScript that can slow down your site.
You can install the one that you purchased individually but those elements won’t show up, it still works as the one that came bundled with the theme based on the theme features and the automatic update has been disabled since it needs to be updated by the theme author.
Even if you use the bundled version you can access direct support from the plugin author since you’ve already purchased a license individually.
Also, could you let us know what any features from this plugin you’ll need, maybe we can help you enable and bring them back.
Thanks for your response and my apologies for not getting back sooner.
I’d ideally like to have the functionality of the front end visual composer ready to go, so that I can put together a new front page for my website. I’ve been using it as a portfolio page for my website and built the current layout in VC previously.
Beyond that, I’m just looking for a way to get back to the excellent functionality of VC!
We’re sorry but this theme doesn’t support front-end editor so it was disabled as you can see in the theme features -> http://themeforest.net/item/flora-responsive-creative-wordpress-theme/12038776#item-description__theme-features
Please use the back-end editor and the existing content elements in the theme instead.
