Ran into and issue with Page Builder. Am trying to delete a column box for the Team module and a black screen overlay appears as if it is going to start the action and then it just hangs…so I cannot delete the block. Have deactivated all plugins except page builder and this still happens. Please advise thank you!

Hi Swami, I just reset the typography settings and now the same error occurs as the last time. On the top of de site the following error appears: Warning: array_key_exists() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /home/httpd/vhosts/carollynecorner.com/httpdocs/wp/wp-content/themes/oshin/header.php on line 38. What can I do now? Thanks in advance. Doris
Hi Doris,
Kindly go to Oshine Options panel and click on the “Save Settings” button once and the warning message should be removed from the Page.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami, Thanks for your very prompt help. I’ve saved settings and the warning message dissappeard. But now the Sidebar menu is not working anymore! I’ve already checked all settings and can’t find anything. Could you please help? Thanks, Doris
Hi Doris,
The option to enable Sidebar is available in the options panel under OSHINE OPTIONS > TOP HEADER SETTINGS > HEADER WIDGETS. I have enabled this for you and the Sidebar is now showing up in the site along with the menu.
Thanks, Swami
HI there how do I change the Hover colour on the Buttons – it doesn’t seem to be working
Hi,
You seem to have set the Background Color and Hover Color the same for the buttons. For ex. the Button in the Home Page that says “Dance Class” has “ffffff” set for normal and Hover State when i inspect the element on browser. Could you please check this. Let me know if you think the changes are not getting saved properly in the Page Builder. i would need your admin details to investigate in that case.
Thanks, Swami
Hi there,
I am getting this error and cannot get rid of it. Please help. I have tried re-installing a clean copy of the plugin from a fresh download, and that does not fix the issue:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare be_themes_contact_authentication() (previously declared in /home/imperial/public_html/wp-content/plugins/be-page-builder/functions/be-pb-ajax-handler.php:12) in /home/imperial/public_html/wp-content/themes/oshin/ajax-handler.php on line 41
Hi,
The issue would have occurred if you had an older version of Oshine Theme while updating the Page Builder. To fix the issue, You have update the theme to its latest version via METHOD 2 – USING THE FTP as mentioned in this link here -http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/update-theme/ .
If you are not aware to using the FTP method, do email us your URL, wp-admin id and password along with the FTP details (Host URL, username and password) so we can restore it for you.
Email the details via the Private Message form in the Support Tab in themeforest and the support team will attend to this..
Thanks, Swami
Hi,
I have recently purchased your Oshine theme and I am trying setting up a lightbox gallery, which is a great feature. However, I cannot find a way to display image captions in it. Any ideas on how to do it? Is it even possible?
Thanks a lot in advance for your help! 
Hi,
MAGNIFIC POP UP –
If you are using Lightbox Type as Magnific Pop up, the caption to the Image should be added as the Title of the Image , by editing the Image in Media Library.
PHOTOSWIPE –
If you are using Lightbox Type as Photoswipe, the caption to the Image should be added as the Description of the Image , by editing the Image in Media Library.
Thanks, Swami
Awesome thanks!
I put it in the title. I am using portfolio for that. Last question. Where do I choose between Magnific pop up and Photoswipe?
Ok. If you are using the Lightbox in Portfolio, the option is always Magnific Pop up. So adding the Caption in the Title should pull it up when you open the Portfolio Image in Lightbox. Photoswipe lightbox is included only on the Gallery Module.
Thanks, Swami
Allrighty then, works for me. Thanks a lot! 
Hi Swami,
I’d like to use a photo layout as the v17 homepage. How can I install it in v23?
Thanks for you help! Much appreciated!
Hi,
The V17 Home Page is built using our Grid Gallery. The instructions on how to create a grid Gallery can be found in this article in our knowledge base – http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/grid-gallery/ .
Do let me know if you have any issues in recreating this.
Thanks, Swami
Hi Swami, many thanks for your quick reply!
I am attempting to remove the author portion of the metadata under each blog post. I see your response to similar a year ago which includes:
.style5-blog .post-top-details .post-author, .style5-blog .post-top-details .post-comments, .style5-blog .post-top-details .post-category, .style5-blog .post-top-details .post-meta-sep{ display:none; }
I believe I modified it correctly for Oshin/v2/ (i.e, Photography) to state simply:
.style7-blog .post-top-details .post-author{ display:none; }
However, it is not working. Error in General Settings->Custom CSS says: Expected an identifier and instead saw ’.’. Missing ”;” before statement. Labal ‘display’ on none statement.
Could you help me resolve this issue?
Hi,
You have missed a ”;” in the CSS code and this is causing the syntax error. Can you give me the link to your page, so I can correct this and give you the updated code?
Thanks, Swami
Here is page: www.egothoughts.com
Hi,
Please use the CSS code below -
.blog .post-author,
.single-post .post-author {
display: none;
}
You need to paste the code in the custom CSS section under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS.
Thanks, Swami
Can I embed a youtube link in a portfolio entry? I can’t figure out how.
Hi,
This knowledgebase article explains how you can link a portfolio thumbnail to a youtube video that will open in a lightbox.
http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/creating-lightbox-video-portfolio/If you would like to have the youtube video in the individual portfolio page, then you can simply using the VIDEO module in the Page Builder.
Thanks, Swami
Hi, I would like to use the v20 Video Agency theme (demo) is this a product that I could use on its own, and how will I access it separately?
Hi,
v20 is basically a demo that can be imported. A demo is just a showcase of what can be done using the theme’s settings and options and are sample pages that you can use as a starting point to set up your website. Kindly follow the instructions in our knowledgebase here to import the demo of your choice.
http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/import-demo-content/Kindly follow all the steps from importing the demo to setting up the main menu, home & blog pages and you will have your site looking like the demo and it will be easy to get started from there.
Thanks, Swami
Is there a way to auto-slide the BE SLIDER? I prefer to use over Rev Slider.
Hi,

Hi Swamy,
How can I achieve having a video gallery similar to this: http://www.linandjirsa.com/los-angeles-wedding-videography/
Would I need to use the page builder? I would like a step by step approach to this.
Thanks
Hi,
Step by step instructions to create a lightbox video portfolio grid is already available in our knowledgebase. Basically the articles you need to refer to are

Theme is installed. How do I install the demo elements?
Found it.
Hello, I have one question. We are using video files – mp4 – on our blog, displayed with wordpress add media button. The button inserts shortcode “video” into internal tinymce editor. But after theme setup and the be-page builder activation they stopped working. They plays fine if I again disable the pagebuilder. We are not using page builder for blog posts, only for portfolios. I saw that pagebuilder also has video shortcode. Is there an easy way to solve this?
just remark – I’m developer, the theme was purchased by company, that is why I don’t have mark “purchased”, it was bought from company account.
Hi,
The video shortcode is not working, as we have overridden the default shortcode in the BE Page Builder. We have added the required code to restore the default WP Video Shortcode in the Oshine Child theme. The Code lines are commented. You need to install and activate the Child theme and uncomment the lines of code within the function “be_restore_default_gallery” . Just as a note, once this is done, you will not be able to use the Video Module in the Page Builder.
Thanks, Swami
Thank you very much, good to know, even if in this case it’s not possible to disable the Page Builder video module. We are using Page Builder and the youtube videos for Projects. But by now I solved this with “create media gallery” and little styling. I just add one video to gallery and it works fine
Hi,
I am glad you have found a workaround to get this implemented.
Thanks, Swami
One Column Gallery? I think this would be perfect for images after my blog post. But in the gallery sections I only see 2-5 column. Any chance I can get a single full page column. Thanks.
Hi,
Apologies, but this feature is not currently available in the theme. That said, we will definitely consider this as a feature request and add it in one of our updates in the future. Unfortunately, i will not be able to assure you as to when this will be available. Thank you for understanding.

Hello,
I’ve recently click the “Reset Section” in the Typography panel thinking that it would restore the fonts to their default settings. The settings reset to completely different font families, sizes, etc. from the Oshine settings. Is there a way to reset all these typography settings back to the default Oshine settings?
Thank you,
Jill
Hi Jill,
The Reset will default the Settings as per the Main Demo – V1 and will not reset to the demo that you have imported. To get the back the settings of any demo, you can re-import the Setting “alone” by navigating to APPEARANCES > IMPORT DEMO DATA. Here you can find option to import the settings. Note that, doing this will restore the entire settings of the site (and not just the typography panel).
Let me know if you need further clarifications.
Thanks, Swami
Thanks for the help Swami.
Regarding featured images, is there a way to use an animated gif or video in the portfolio? I’ve tried resizing the image to the size of the thumbnails used (1250×750) in the template, but it’s still coming through as a static image. A 150×150 gif works, but the image becomes really pixelated in the portfolio thumbnail since it’s enlarged.
Hi,
I did do some preliminary testing for the gif images, and looks like the masonry grid support only jpegs and pngs but not gif. I will require some more time to test this extensively to check if there is a possibility. The development team is working on the feasibility as we speak and we will patch a fix if possible in our upcoming updates to the theme/page builder.
Thanks, Swami
Hello,
my product images have stopped displaying in the lightbox with the most recent WooCommerce update. Any possible solution? The images will only open in a new page.
http://idlechild.us/product/rosy-ideals-day-robeThank you, Ellie
Hi Ellie,
We have fixed the issue with the Product Lightbox and the updated theme is available from download. Kindly update the theme as per the instructions here – www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/update-theme and the issue should be resolved.
Thanks, Swami
Is it possible to turn off this animation/transition? or speed it up?
Thank you 
Hi,
Do you mean the Sliding Speed in the Slider. Apologies but there ins’t an option to adjust this. Let me know if you meant ask about a different animation.
Thanks Swami
yes thats what i wanted to know, its just that in some cases it lags when moving from one image to another.
Also another question. Is there any way to keep the information tab open for the horizontal carousel slider ?
Or is there a way to pit information before or after the images apart from the portfolio details? which is very limited
Hi,
Actually I would recommend checking your image file sizes if incase you are finding the slider to be lagging. I think your images run in the MB’s and you should probably compress them. We have tested the slider across multi devices and browsers and runs smooth.
Please use the custom javascript snippet to have to information tag open by default in the horizontal carousel gallery.
jQuery(document).ready( function () {
jQuery('.single_portfolio_info_close').trigger('click');
});
If incase you have want information above or below a carousel, then you should probably use the Slider Revolution Plugin to create your carousel and not use the inbuilt option, use the slider the page builder.
Thanks, Swami
Pre-sale question! I absolutely love the V23- Modern Business demo. My only question – is there a way I can change the menu area from being transparent to having a solid background?
I noticed the demo has it set at transparent and I just want to make sure I can change it to have a solid color background.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for your interest in purchasing the theme. Yes a Solid Header style is possible if you choose V23 demo too.
The Header Styles that you see in all demos can be used interchangeably as they are all controlled by the options in the theme.
Thanks, Swami
Help. There seems to be a problem with my Page Builder. I am now unable to add media to a text block. When I open the text block media and click add media, select the file and click ‘insert into page’ NOTHING happens. The photo does not get embedded into the text block.
I am also unable to access the font, color picker and format drop downs in all modules of the page builder. Please Help
Hi,
Kindly check if you have the latest version of the Theme and Be Page Builder Plugin. To update the theme to its latest version, kindly follow the instructions in this knowledgebase article:
http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/update-theme/As recommended, kindly backup your database and theme options, prior to the update.
Once you have updated the theme to it’s latest version, kindly update the BE Page Builder plugin.
Let me know if the issue persists.
Thanks, Swami
Thank you for your response Swami. I checked the theme and I have version 4.4 installed. I recently updated. I also have BE page Builder version 4.4. After deactivating a recently installed plugin I was able to add media, however I am still unable to access any of the drop down items on the hidden formatting line in the text box visual layout (font size, paragraph, formats, font color).
Hi Swami, I figured out what was causing the issue. After deactivating all my plugins and reactivating one at a time I found the plugin that was causing this bug. JetPack was responsible but it only affects it after I connect Jetpack to my wordpress.com account.
Hi,
That’s great. I am glad you could narrow down the issue.
Thanks, Swami
Hi! Is it possible to change the Background-color in a single portfolio-post? where the images appear, is always white. I would like to put grey! Thank you for your amazing template!
Hi,
This depends on the type of Single Portfolio Style that you are using. Can you give me a link to your page so I can assist accordingly.
Thanks, Swami
