The latest update of Vela theme is 1.8.6. By default, this theme has no automatic update feature so you’ll need to download a new update from your Downloads page on ThemeForest. You can try an auto update plugin by following the instructions in our documentation.

Hello,

We will add the dimensions for those images in the next update, thanks for reporting this issue.

Of course, you’ll need to update the Vela theme to the latest update that comes with the Visual Composer plugin 4.11.2.1.

As you can see in our documentation, you’ll need to update the whole theme folder. You shouldn’t edit any file in the theme directly because your changes will be lost when you update the theme. Please use the child theme instead.

Ok but its too late I already change the theme on some pages. Is it possible to create a child theme with Vela ? I need to add some layout page, some Javscript, and custom function from the flolder inc/custom-functions.php … If I am able to move it to a child-theme a guess that will resolve my probleme ?

Vela comes with a Child Theme as you can see in the main download package. However, some functions in custom-functions.php will not work in child theme since they do not allow you to edit and override.

Hello,

We will add an option to set the logo dimensions in the next update. Thanks for reporting this issue.

Please make sure the current header layout will display the header top bar. Only layout 2, 4 and 7 have the header top bar that will display the social media icons.

Hello,

Please make sure you have the latest update of the Vela theme and all bundled plugins since the old ones are not compatible with WordPress 4.5.

Also, you can normally use the Slider Revolution plugin without registering a purchase code. This option is available for users who have purchased this plugin individually (direct buyers).

Thanks for all help! It worked! But I have one more question: How long my license of “Visual Composer” and “Slider Revolution” will work?

Both plugins came bundled with the theme and they’re valid for as long as you own this theme.

Mhh, also after deleting all possible caches, in Edge the post previews are displayed in one row only. Please send me your email address and I will provide screenshots from my development system.

The latest update of the Vela theme is 1.8.7 but I see your site is running on Vela 1.8.6. If you usually update the theme via Envato plugin, please try to update the theme manually.

Also, if you’d like you can send me the screenshots in the contact form -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact that will send directly to my email.

That’s correct, I haven’t updated my live website yet. But I have tested on my non-public development server.

The background video is in 854×480px, this is a small size of video. The high resolution video is not important since it’s just a background. It also have a small file size (1MB) that will take just a few seconds to load.

Hi,

By default, the main content container has a minimum height 300px but your home page has no content so you will see the blank white space instead. You can remove it by adding the custom CSS in Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content as below:

<style type=”text/css”> .main-content{ min-height: 0; } </style>

Also, I see there is a script error on your since it’s using the old version of Vela that is not compatible with WordPress 4.5, you’ll need to update the Vela theme to fix it.

In the future, please contact us with the account who have purchased this theme.

Kind regards.

Hi,

I suppose your countdown widget also have an shortcode for adding to the page content. You can put its shortcode directly to the Text/HTML layer on slider.

It is that what I need to know how to change the map view in the frontend, the map view must be explicitly hybrid. that is the code that affects the map, as I make the change in wyde.gmaps files

function getMapTypeId(type) { var mapTypeId = google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP; switch (type) { case "1": mapTypeId = google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID; break; case "3": mapTypeId = google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE; break; case "4": mapTypeId = google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN; break; default: mapTypeId = google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP; break; } return mapTypeId; } $(".wyde-gmaps").each(function () { var el = this; var options = $.parseJSON(decodeURIComponent($(".wyde_gmaps_field", el).val())); var settings = $.extend(true, { position: { lat: 37.6, lng: -95.665 }, address: "", zoom: 8, type: 2 }, options);

or Wyde-gmaps.min

!function(e){function o(e){var o=google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP;switch(e){case"1":o=google.maps.MapTypeId.HYBRID;break;case"3":o=google.maps.MapTypeId.SATELLITE;break;case"4":o=google.maps.MapTypeId.TERRAIN;break;default:o=google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP}return o}e(".wyde-gmaps").each(function(){function a(){e(".wyde_gmaps_field",n).val(encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(s)))}var t,n=this,p=e.parseJSON(decodeURIComponent(e(".wyde_gmaps_field",n).val())),s=e.extend(!0,{position:{lat:37.6,lng:-95.665},address:"",zoom:8,type:2},p);s&&(t=new google.maps.LatLng(s.position.lat,s.position.lng),e(".map-address",n).val(s.address),e(".map-type",n).val(s.type),e(".map-zoom",n).val(s.zoom));var g=o(s.type),i=e(".gmaps-canvas",n).get(0),m={zoom:s.zoom,center:t,mapTypeId:g},l=new google.maps.Map(i,m),d=new google.maps.Marker({position:t,title:"Drag & Drop marker",map:l,animation:google.maps.Animation.DROP,draggable:!0});google.maps.event.addListener(d,"dragend",function(){t=d.getPosition(),s.position={lat:t.lat(),lng:t.lng()},a()}),e(".map-address",n).change(function(){var o=e(this).val();if(s.address=o,a(),o){var n=new google.maps.Geocoder;n.geocode({address:o},function(e,o){o===google.maps.GeocoderStatus.OK&&e.length>0&&e[0].geometry&&(t=e[0].geometry.location,s.position={lat:t.lat(),lng:t.lng()},l.setCenter(t),d.setPosition(t),a())})}}),e(".map-type",n).change(function(){s.type=e(this).val();var t=o(s.type);l.setMapTypeId(t),a()}),e(".map-zoom",n).change(function(){s.zoom=parseInt(e(this).val()),l.setZoom(s.zoom),l.setCenter(t),a()})})}(jQuery); <code> regards</code>

We will enable other map types in the next update so you can also display hybrid maps on your frontend without editing the map script.

Thank you wait for that update

Hi,

You can normally use it without registering a putchase code. This option is only available for users who have purchased this plugin individually (direct buyers).

Only links in the navigation will scroll smoothly, we will look into this to add this function to other links on the page.

Hi,

Unfortunately, the smooth scrolling feature will not work on Firefox since Firefox also have slightly smooth while scrolling and it doesn’t support this feature.

ok but why when i scroll it jams?

Hi,

We will look into this and improve the smooth scrolling feature on Firefox in the next update. Thanks for reporting this issue.

Hello,

In the current version you can translate the Related Projects by using WPML String Translation. BTW, in the next update we will move this word to the po file instead. To translate the PO file, please follow these: 1. Install and activate your child theme. 2. You will see the po file in the folder “laguages” inside your child theme. 3. Edit the po file with POEdit, translate and save it in your language code such as es_CL.po and es_CL.mo in the same folder.

Regarding the contact form issue, we’ll need to see the live site so please send us your site URL via a private message -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Hi,

If you’re on the portfolio single page, your image will be stretched to full the browser width so please use the larger one or change the portfolio layout instead. If it still doesn’t work please send us your site URL, we’ll need to investigate this issue on your live site.

Forget it, and solve it, problems with permalinks

Happy to hear that the problem has been resolved

Hi,

The theme displays the sticky logo on mobile but your sticky logo is now white that will disappear on the white background as well as your sticky logo on desktop.

Please make sure you’re using the latest update of this plugin (4.11.2.1) and the latest update of the theme (1.8.6)

Yes I have the newest version of the theme. I even deleted VP and then re-installed when prompted by the theme. Have a huge client site I need to update and nothing can be changed. Please help

Try to deactivate other plugins to see if it works.

If it still doesn’t work, please PM me your site URL and admin login credentials: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Hi, we use the default excerpt from WordPress in this theme so it doesn’t allow any format in the post excerpt. Thanks for reporting this issue, we will look into it.

Sorry for taking so long in responding to your questions.

1. The message field is in the second column so it will be stacked to the bottom on mobile. You should your captcha and button to a new row as below sample code:

<div class="row">
