Beautiful theme. I bought this theme for ecommerce site. I’m looking for theme for directory listing & do you have listing theme as well?
Hi,
First of all thanks for purchasing porto theme and liking the theme.
Yes, you can create the listing site by using the porto theme. No, we have not created the listing theme demo but you can develop easily by using porto theme. Porto theme is the multi-purpose theme.
Thanks
Thanks for the reply. Using Porto, I was wondering how can users submit items rather than admin posting them.. Any thoughts please?
Porto does not have Multi-vendor feature, you can use this plugin for that type of feature: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wc-vendors/
Please note we have not tested this plugin with Porto and cannot guarantee or support that.
Our another theme Mango is compatible with Multivendor feature like you want and has a demo as well for a marketplace kind of feature, you can check: http://themeforest.net/item/mango-responsive-woocommerce-theme/12522813
Multivendor Demo 21: http://smartwavethemes.net/mango/demo21
Thank you
will you support multivendor plugin in the near future?
Hi,

Sorry, it was quite easy, we found it! 
We pointed it here. Perhaps someone has the same question someday.
Theme Options/ Portfolio / PortFolio Archives /

Hello – I’m having trouble with the theme – there seems to be issues running the theme on Firefox and Chrome – the tabs section in products do not load correctly and instead display all content on the page as one tab, even when there are two or more.
Example of the issue: https://www.unmannedsystemssource.com/shop/ar200/
On Safari and Internet Explorer, the tabs work fine and as expected. However Chrome, Firefox, and occasionally Opera all do not work as expected.
Please provide an update when you can. I am running the latest version of theme and WooCommerce – I have disabled all unnecessary plugins on the site and still notice the issue.
Hi, there’s a problem with the theme and WPML String Translation. When you go to “WPML -> Theme and plugins localization” and try to activate the option “Translate the theme and plugins using WPML’s String Translation”, this won’t work. You have to switch the theme to another one, activate the option and switch back to Porto.
Also, there are performance issues with the WPML String Translation Plugin.
NB : I also tried on a fresh installation with only WPML and Porto installed and the problem is still there. Thanks.
Hi,
We have not notified this type of issue yet anywhere. Please read this documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/I hope this will help you a lot.
Thanks
We’re quite familiar with String Translation and its options. I have to be honest, we are pretty sure the problem is with WPML but since we can observe the same behavior on lots of big themes (like yours, Avada, and others) we thought we would let you know.
I’m sure that the WPML team would love to have some help from the theme makers.
Thanks for notifying us and update us with that explanation. We will definitely help out the WPML team if they contact us.
thanks for your information and help to others who have the same issue related to the WPML.
Have a nice day 
Hello. Your theme is awesome. Unfortunately, we have a problem.
We use the plugin WPML. If someone the search box is used on the results page appears only one language.
An example:
Current: (False)
Language 1 search window – Text Search Results Language 1 Language 2 search window – Text Search Results Language 1
If (Correct)
Language 1 search window – Text Search Results Language 1 Language 2 search window – Text Search Results Language 2
thanks for the fast respond

I tried several times, but I get a 403 Forbidden error. Just tell me in what file I need to make corrections. I think it is not a difficult task and can decide for himself.

Hi,
I’d like to buy this theme, but i have a question -
Does the porto theme work if i host the wordpress site myself or does it have to be hosted at some specific host only?
Hi,
Thank you for your interest in Porto Theme. The Optimal Server Requirements For Theme are:
• Server Type: Linux with cPanel ( Bluehost hosting Recommended ) • PHP version = 5.4 or greater • Apache = 2.2 or greater • MySQL = 5.5 or greater • PHP Memory Limit = 256mb • PHP max_execution_time = 600 seconds • mod_rewrite Apache module = Enabled
If you are installing through WordPress Theme section, make sure your PHP Upload File Size limit is 40MB, since the theme .zip file is around 40MB
Please make sure all above settings are correct on your server. You can contact your web hosting company.
Thank you for your co-operation.
Hi,
Using WPFacets plugin and it provides shortcode to add to your page. When we add this shortcode to a Visual Composer page it gets stripped out and doesn’t display the code it should be showing.
Please advise why the code is showing blank in VC pages. Seems to work OK in widgets and other items.
Thanks, Ryan.
Hi,
We have not tested this paid plugin yet with our theme and its not possible to guarantee 3rd party plugins for us. We think that if plugin is coded perfectly it should work with any WooCommerce theme. You can also confirm from the plugin author and take there help to resolve this issue. This is the best info we can provide at this stage.
Thank you for your co-operation.
Hello, I’d like to import the demo for the one page website (http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/demo12/home-one-page/) how would I do this please? I don’t see it as an option within the theme settings and am not sure how to go about making a page/website such as this. Many thanks.
Hi,
First of all thanks for purchasing Porto theme and contacting us.
Please first go to Theme Options >> Import Demo >> Import Dummy Content then import the Widgets >> then import the Master sliders
then after importing the dummy content please go to Theme Options >> Import Demo >> Click the Select Demo button option under the Import Demo section. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zdtiwp1riiopf3q/select%20demo.jpg?dl=0Thanks and have a nice day 
Thanks for your reply, but which demo would it be please? This was my question. I can’t see the “one page” demo on this page. Thanks.
Hi
Hope you are doing well. Just saw that you left 4 star review for our Porto theme. Is it possible for you to change it to 5? It would encourage our work a lot. If you get any issue with Porto, please do not hesitate to contact us.
Regards, Alex
As you unfortunately do not (yet?) have a demo for Buddypress and BBPress integrations, do you plan to include widgets for e.g. messages and notifications dropdowns?
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us. I have submitted your idea as a feature-request to our team so that they can consider for future updates if possible.
Have a great day! Thank you
I have two development environments that are setup as subdomains of my actual site. E.g. dev1.mysite.com and dev2.mysite.com. The sites are exactly the same. The two development sites are just used for staging / development purposes for different sites functions and not used by the public (but they have different subdomains). Could the theme be used across the development environments with 1 license without any problems?
Hi,
Yes,the theme can be used only across the development environments with 1 license without any problems but when you public both the sites then you have to purchase another license.
Thanks
Hi, how can I delete the Global Tab from all the products? It’s set by default in all the products pages and I don’t know what it means/does there as I don’t see this tab in the product properties/edit page. Kindly tell me how to edit this tab or else delete it. Thanks!
Hi,
Just Go to Theme Options >> Woo commerce >> Single Product, you will find “Global Product Custom Tab Title” field just remove the text from the field and tab will hid automatically. Thanks
Hello we can not update Plugin WPBakery Visual Composer after the new update. error: Update package is not available .. is Envato plugin still working for updates? we asked you this a month ago can we get some answer or will you force us to buy your support? what a bad and non service idear. i miss the passion like you had before.
Hi,
Please install the VC plugin manually by following the instruction in the documentation: http://newsmartwave.net/wordpress/porto/documentation/#update_pluginThanks
The sliders and pictures uploaded on two different pages on my site are not working. Would not having the most up to date version affect this?
Hi,
I think that your theme version is old and did not support WP 4.5. Please update your theme version to latest porto theme version 2.8.3 and please update all the plugins as well including VC.
I hope after the update of the theme version and all the plugins, your all issues will solve auto,
Thanks
