i am referring to an option on the sign in for an eCommerce shop that i am building for my client. they want the user to be able to stay signed in if they leave the site and then come back they will stay signed in and what is in their basket will remain.is this default?

Hey @yslasky!

Hmm, this isn’t something that Avada would be adjusting, that is purely WooCommerce functionality. I believe WooCommerce does retain the cart contents for a period of time after the visitor leaves the site. If the same user returns to the site within that time period, the items will still be sitting in the cart.

There are also several third party plugins that you can use to have more control over the cart contents for visitors who leave, such as:

Hello

How to center align the filter section for RECENT WORKS element ?

Hey @iman707!

At the moment we don’t have an option to center the portfolio filters, this would require some custom CSS. We have a quick guide on getting started with custom CSS here:

Hi,

Thanks for the theme … I am having a small issue with the WP Layer Slider – for some reason it keeps giving me an error message just above the footer saying:

“LayerSlider encountered a problem while it tried to show your slider. Please make sure that you’ve used the right shortcode or method to insert the slider, and check if the corresponding slider exists and it wasn’t deleted previously.”

However, the slider shows up fine on the home page with no issues. After searching online, I found a ticket saying i need to install demo sliders manually. I tried doing that and I still get the message!

How do I get rid of it?

Hey @coldhart!

Hmm, if the slider works on your home page it should also be working on all of the other pages. If it’s only working on one page, we will need to take a closer look at your site to know what’s going on here. Can you please head on over to our support center to submit a ticket? A member of our team will be assigned and respond as soon as possible.

Is there a way to have a google map with custom Map Pins for a few locations?

Hey @complexs!

Yes, our Google maps shortcode comes with an option to assign a custom icon for each location on the map. You can see all of the available options for our Google maps shortcode here:

https://theme-fusion.com/knowledgebase/avada-shortcode-list/#maps

We also have a few examples of this in action on this page of our live demo:

http://avada.theme-fusion.com/google-maps/

As you can see, we’re using a different icon for each avatar on our map. You can assign any image you like for your map pins.

I hope we get to see you join the ever-growing Avada community!

Thanks!

Hello, How do I add “Load more button” on recent posts?

Hello @Saladaz.

Recent posts shortcode does not support any type of pagination, if you want your posts with pagination i will suggest using the Blog Shortcode instead.

https://theme-fusion.com/avada-doc/blog-2/using-blog-shortcode/

In order to include “Load More” button on recent posts, you will have to customize the shortcode files.

If you need further assistance, please header over to our support center to create a ticket a ticket so our tech. rep will get back to you as soon as possible.

If I were to upload a demo template from within theme options, create pages & custom page templates, would everything get overwritten when I switch to a different demo template? I know most settings will be lost but if I at least the custom page templates I created are carried over, then I wouldn’t lose very much work. Let me know – thanks! -CT

*but if at least the

Hello @Seahawks2300

The pages and post you create will not be lost, however your theme options and other styling as well as as widgets and menus will be merged with the other demo you install. It is not recommended to import a demo on an already built site.

Thanks

is this compatible with wordpress 4.4.4?

Hey @donfried!

Avada 3.9.4 and above requires at least WordPress 4.5. I would recommend keeping both WordPress and Avada as up to date as possible to avoid any security issues that have since been patched.

Thanks!

Ryan

I’m on 4.4.4 and if I upgrade WP it will go to 4.5.3 the latest release.

Want to buy this theme but don’t see that listed. Is it compatible with that?

Hello @donfried.

Yes, our theme is definitely compatible with the latest version of WordPress that is 4.5.3.

Thanks

Hi, I was wondering if I can get some help Only my home page works whilst on the others I get this message Oops, This Page Could Not Be Found! Here is the website www.roundelsounds.com/

Thank you

Hey @mariacon!

This looks like it might be caused by your permalinks. I would recommend going to the Settings -> Permalinks page of your admin panel, selecting ‘Post Name’ and clicking the save button. If ‘Post Name’ is already selected, please go ahead and click the ‘Save’ Button anyway.

If the issue still persists, we will need to take a closer look at your website to know what’s going on. Can you please head on over to our support center to submit a ticket? A member of our team will be assigned and respond as soon as possible.

Hello!

This was a change made by Google maps but our team has issued a fix for it. First make sure you are using Avada 4.0.2 and Fusion Core 2.0.2. Update to those versions if needed.

Then in your WP admin area, go to Avada > Support tab and look at the bottom for the Avada Patcher tool box. You will see patches (fixes) that can be applied with a single button. You will notice that some patches have to be applied in order so make sure to apply them as they show from top to bottom.

Here is more info about the patcher in general: https://theme-fusion.com/avada-doc/install-update/avada-patcher/

Hi – How can I get an updated version of the Revolution Slider plugin? Thanks -

Hello @Fusionpoint.

The premium sliders are bundled free with our theme and you will be getting the updated version when we update it on our end, this will be done in our next version release 5.0.

However if you want to update it otherwise you can certainly buy a stand alone license for yourself and then update the plugin, it will also make you eligible for their premium support and add ons.

More info about this can be read here : https://theme-fusion.com/avada-doc/sliders/purchase-codes-premium-sliders/

Thanks! Isn’t the site vulnerable to hackers if all the plugins are updated to the latest versions?

Hey @fusionpoint!

This rule generally applies to plugins that haven’t been updated for several months or more. We include the latest version with each update, which occurs every few months or so. If there is a vulnerability with any of the third party plugins that we include, we will release an emergency update/patch with the updated plugin files.

We are looking into other ways of providing updates for these plugins, but we are bound by certain licensing rules which can make it a bit difficult to do this any other way.

Thanks!

Is there a way to turn off the icon and colored image that appears overtop of the featured image when looking at a grid of blog post excerpts?

Hello @Ckarasiewicz.

I believe you mean the image rollover : http://prntscr.com/bmq8en

If that is what you want to disable this can be certainly done from Theme Options > Extras > Featured Image Rollover

Screenshot : http://prntscr.com/bmq920

Hope that will help, if you need further assistance please do not hesitate to open a new ticket with us and one of our support rep. will get back to you as soon as possible.

Is there an option for keep me signed in, this is in addition to remember me that i see on the classic shop my account drop down

Hello @Yslasky.

If you check on the “Keep me signed in” option at the very first login of WP admin you should always be able to see your account drop down, are you not seeing that on your my account drop down ?

Thanks

Ammar.

Hi- Your theme is my favorite by far, but I am having an issue. I have spent an hour going through your support forums but need a quick answer please. I have turned on the automatic heading resizing for mobile under the responsive tab. I have played with many different settings to get it to work, but it doesn’t. I want my H3 headings to resize on a mobile because they show up way too big (same size as on my desktop). But for the life of me I can not get them to automatically shrink. Please let me know what I am doing wrong.

Hey Laree,

Hmm, the responsive text settings should be applying to those headings. There are two things I would recommend:

1. After adjusting the ‘Responsive Typography Sensitivity’ option, please have a play around with the ‘Minimum Font Size Factor’. This may be stopping your text from responding below a certain level.

2. Try inserting a title using the ‘Title’ shortcode, rather than inserting it via the text editor.

If this doesn’t result in responsive titles, something else must be interfering and we will need you to submit a ticket so that we can take a closer look at this for you.

Thanks!

Ryan

Yeah Ryan! GREAT SERVICE. I was already using the title code, not the text editor. BUT adjusting the ‘Responsive Typography Sensitivity’ did the trick!

Hey Laree,

Not a problem, I’m glad to hear I could assist!

Thanks!

Ryan

Hey there guys,

Any idea as to why a basic font (looks like Times New Roman) loads on the website before the Google font (ubuntu in this case) loads?

So once the page has loaded, the menu’s and text all eventually turn into Ubuntu.

Hey @gonethesock.

That means the backup font is loading for before the main google font and it depends on the loading speed of your site and specially how quickly the server response is. We have a very detailed article on how you can speed things up on your website that can be read here please : http://bit.ly/1H11sFD

If you need further assistance on this, please do create a ticket with our support center and we will gladly take an indepth look at it.

Can I build a community type website with users being able to interact with each other through Private Messaging for example?

What is the recommended Server specs RAM wise for this theme and plugins?

No, the forum I noticed you have (bbPress) but I was thinking more like BuddyPress? Users have their own Profiles can send Private Messages to each other?

Im very curious if my VPS which has 2.25 GB would be enough for this Theme and Plugins to run fast on? The rest of my server specs should be just find but some WP Themes are bloated as well as plugins that make servers eat up a bunch of RAM. I know your theme says it’s optimized for performance but I really need a fast loading WP Theme so I really need to know how much RAM it needs to run as fast as possible but on a budget. Thanks

Hey @complexs!

Most Avada customer’s are using shared hosting, which come with fairly tight limits. I don’t think you would have any issues on a VPS with 2.25GB of RAM. In terms of speed, you would be better off using the server you have and investing in a CDN and a good caching solution.

In terms of features, Avada itself doesn’t include the forum/messaging features but we are compatible with both plugins that you mentioned, bbPress and BuddyPress. Between the two of these, you should be able to achieve all the functionality for that type of website.

I hope that helps!

Thanks!

Hi,

I want to change font size of side navigation. In older version I could change the size. But at 4.0 I can’t find how I can change the font size of side navigation. Please tell me.

Hello @Pine131

The font size of side navigation template is controlled by the font size of body, there is no separate option for that. However if you want a custom solution a CSS code can definitely be used for it.

If you need further assistance in this case, please open a support ticket with our support center and one of our support reps will get back to you as soon as possible.

Hi,

Is it possible to use the Shopify Buy Button (https://www.shopify.co.uk/buy-button) within this theme, in order to sell products, instead of using WooCommerce?

Also, could I use a plugin such as Bookly with Avada, in order to take live bookings online?

Many thanks

Hello @mikeef1

We have never personally tried both of these plugins, however on the product page for shopify it says its compatible with WordPress tho i will suggest getting in contact with the shopify developer about this for more info if they support premium WordPress themes?

However both your booking requirements and an e-shop can be certainly fulfilled using WooCommerce and its extensions.

Thanks

Ammar.
