Hi again! Two questions:

1) Is it possible to align the top menu with the top of the page without creating a space between them? (see: http://i.imgur.com/uP4UO28.png or http://michaelconkin.com/about-2/). I would like the top menu to meet up / touch the background image.

2) How can I change the colour of the link text only in the top menu? I would like to use black is my link colour everywhere except for the top menu, where I would like to use white.

Thanks!

Hi mrconkin,

1. This seems to be fine, I just checked your Contact page and there is no margin, see this link, and in the about page there is no image showing, just make sure you check the header options and remove the margin.

2. Add the following CSS to your Custom CSS area:

.top-menu-container .top-menu ul li a:hover {
    color: #EEE !important;
} 

.top-menu-container .blog-sidebar .sidebar-box-holder a {
    color: #FFF !important;
}

Hi Lab!

I wish to put some custom HTML, CSS, and a little java script to a page. It is basically just a couple of boxes animated through snap.svg.

How can I do that without altering the theme?

This is the elements I want to add to a page, just the boxes with the hover animation and replace the images. I still want the font of the main theme tough.

here:

I am more then willing to pay you for helping me getting this done.

Thanks!

Hi there,

You can do it through Visual Composer where you can select and set Raw JS or Raw HTML.

Hi I’ve just bought Kalium theme and I found it really impressive. I am wondering if there is a way to work in “Coming Soon mode” and at the same time enable the client to see the contents we are creating. For example if “Coming soon mode” is activated, Administrators only can visualize a portfolio item both in Back end and Front end. My issue is how to show the pages we are working on to the client while keeping “Coming soon mode” active. Thank you.

Hi there,

As I could understand, you want to keep some pages you finished visible for your client while the rest of the site remains in the “Coming soon mode”, that’s not possible with Kalium and you cannot choose which pages to show and which to hide, only if you use the WordPress private and public page visibility.

When I go to activate visual composer it says no licenses found. I’ve set up my Envato API Key so not quite sure where to go from here.

How can I active it to use it?

Hi,

my site is www.muehlboeck.at and I am using the Kalium theme with Agency demo.

I would like to make the site faster, do you have any recommendations for me?

I already used the W3 Total Cache plugin with other sites. Would you recommend me to use this plugin also with the Kalium theme?

Thank you for your support

Kind regards

Maria

After the most recent wordpress upgrade my Kalium theme has gone bonkers. All the images and a lot of content is missing and the layout has completely changed. Is my best option reinstalling the theme?

Hi Monicamaher,

Thanks for reaching out! Apparently, you are using an older version of our theme and the latest version that we just launched is 1.8.9. It’s highly recommended to upgrade to the latest version.

Hi,

I have a very simple problem. I have downloaded your demo files. I must have done something and now I am not able to configure the portfolios. I cant even see the different images that make the portfolio from the demo pages. I want to be able to configure something like this with my images:

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

Also, how do you get the horizontal menu with portfolio categories to appear ?

Thanks,

Ignacio

Hi Ignacio,

Thanks for writing in! Would you please try checking your memory limits?

Recommended PHP configuration limits are as follows:

max_execution_time 180
memory_limit 128M
post_max_size 32M
upload_max_filesize 64M

For more info visit this link Recommended PHP Configuration Limits

Regarding horizontal menu, kindly navigate to Laborator -> Theme Options -> Header and Menu -> Standard Menu.

Best,
Imran

Many thanks Imran for the kick reply.

I will check my limits, but in the meantime, I have found the solution to my problem. I can now see portfolio items. And the menu with portfolio categories at the top of the page is now visible. The problem was that you need to set a Featured Image when crating the portfolio. Only then it appears in the portfolio page and menu.

Thanks!

Ignacio

Hi Ignacio,

Yes you re absolutely right, because that portfolio project need’s an image to appear nice on your portfolio page :)

Why is the shopping cart have “shipping calculator” appearing twice? Once below subtotal and once below “proceed to checkout” button. I noticed this happened to everyone who is running this theme including your own demo. This cause a big confusion to the customer so i hope in future update you can make only one shipping calculator under subtotal and if the custom need to update the shipping again (if entered wrong zipcode ,etc), then the 2nd shipping calculator will appear under checkout but only after the customer has first entered the address above.

Hi Phuongtruong,

Thanks for reaching out! I see that you don’t have the “Support Subscription” for this theme listed next to your name; we can’t provide support for customers who don’t have the support package.

Hello,

I’m trying to use the child theme so everytime I update the template the CSS changes are not going to be affected. The thing is that I did copy the assets/css to the child theme’s folder but every time I edit something in the child theme it keeps showing the stuff from the main theme.

My main changes are on: kalium.css and bootstrap.com How can I fix that?

Thank you!!

Hi Fadel7

It is the same, because kalium.css will always change and if you copy it to style.css it will cause the theme to break. You just need to add your CSS that will change specific value and not the entire file.

This is the best practice to keep theme up to date and also not loose your modifications.


Best regards,
Arlind

Got it! Thank you very much for your quick response.

Glad to hear that Fadel :)

After upgrade the Kalium Theme to 1.8.9 in the “Labaratory” menu i can`t save my changes. Are there any know reasons and solutions to solve this issue?! When pushing the “save all changes” button the only thing that´s happing is a rotating symbol.

Greetings

Hi Stefan,

Thanks for reaching out! Your request has already been replied.

P.S: I saw that you have created some other tickets, can you please try to add all your questions in one thread, because in this way is easy for us to understand what you have done and what is left, also is would be easy for you to post in one thread :)

Best,
Imran

Ok, i tried both and more. I cleared the cache, used different Browser and reinstalled (deleting and then uploading) the new 1.8.9 theme again. Nothing helped. I still can´t save the changes i made in the “Laboratory” menu. Could there be a conflict with the PHP Version or Memory settings with my Provider?

Hello,

Nightmare!

After WordPress 4.5 update Visual Composer doesn’t work in pages. The backend editor doesn’t show any of the elements I have used and the frontend editor has a spinning loading gif of doom.

Any ideas?

I haven’t upgraded to the new Kalium… hesitant to do so…
