Hi there,

Can you please check if you are using latest version of our theme? The latest version for the moment is (1.9.3), please update theme first and then the premium plugins too.

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit or Envato Market plugin. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

Important: After you update the theme please don’t forget to go to Appearance > Install Plugins to update all your premium plugins to the latest version that we support.

P.S: If you still have any problem please just write a ticket on our external support system, and we will reply to you as soon as possible.

Take me to item support >

pfff, problem solved, thank you!! Was a little panic attack over here..:-)

Hi jannekehooymans,

Don’t worry for that, remember to always update your theme when we publish new versions :)

If you don’t want to miss any of your theme updates and want to be informed, please don’t forget to enable this option:

so when the update it’s ready you will receive an email if you have enabled “Get notified by email if this item is updated” from your Downloads tab.

P.S: If you like our theme, it would help us a lot if you could give us five star rating on themeforest from your Downloads tab, (if you don’t know how, just open this link).

A huge thank you from Laborator in advance and have a nice day!

Hello, stiloso and great theme, I should create a portal with many, many pages. Can you please answer these simple pre-sale questions?

1- Mega Menu: exist in Kalium? If ya, how many columns and is there the possibility to customize it even with small photos?

2- Inside a page: in addition to the main menu, can I have another menu linked to other pages or linked in the sections of the page itself (the classic anchor links)?

3- Can I get in my website, all the pages I want, created using your theme One Page, also linked to the general home page?

Thank you very much for your answers

Hi RodGC,

1 — It’s not supported yet, we have it in the to-do list.

2 — You can have a menu if you add it via Visual Composer because the theme doesn’t have any other menu location where you can add it.

3 — I couldn’t understand this question, you can create pages with the one-page demo and link them via the menu.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi there!

I have a question in regards to ‘Photography’ demo of your theme.

The Gallery with lightbox functionality… are those just media files in the media library with a custom taxonomy attached? Or are they some sort of custom post type?

Would it be possible to add my own custom taxonomy (sold/available/gallery) and text field (link to gallery) for each image and then display this information in the gallery?

I don’t require your help with the custom work, but if you could give me a rough time frame (if it is possible to accomplish). Thank you very much!

Hi ecstatic,

This is a custom post type, it uses the “Portfolio Post Type” so each image is a post and can include even more images which means it can be a single photo or an album.

I’m looking to maybe buy this theme but have a few questions. Never used wordpress before, but seems to save me a lot of time from setting up my own website. Though I am wondering how much control I have over further customization of this theme. Can I keep on adjusting things within the html/css/js files of the Kalium theme through ftp uploading or am I stuck with what I get? Also, I really want to have an ability to upload my javascript sketches in a js canvas element. Is there a way to do this other than trying to acces the code myself and putting it in? Can I add js libraries? Many questions, I hope you can answer them ;) Thanks in advance!

Hi RobbertG,

We offer a rich Theme Options, and we also offer Visual Composer and Revolution Slider plugin for free. Also we have a very rich Theme Options so i think that most options that user wants are there.

But if you want to edit any core theme file, such as PHP or JS files you can do that. We also offer Child Theme, so if you edit any theme file changes that you’ve made will not loose after you update the theme.

Kind regards,
—Ylli

Just to be sure; So it is possible for me to make changes to any code through Visual Composer or, to work in a child theme of Kalium. Which makes it possible to run javascript canvasses where I want them. :) Thanks in advance.

Hey, one pre sales question. Do you plan a option to center the logo and the navbar? If not can you help to do that? Thanks and Regards

I want to center the logo and the menu for the shop layout…

Hi JakeRupp,

Currently there isn’t any type of header like this but we have sketched this and many other header types that will be available in the upcoming updates in Kalium 2.0

Hello. I have installed the photography theme (love it). After having spent some time uploading some photos, all the sudden the masonry layout changed from 3 columns to 1 column (without me customizing anything) so the thumbs are really big now? How do I change it back the to the way it was? This has happened a few times to me now, I already did a few clean installs but the problem keeps occuring. Would appreciate your help with this. Is it a bug? Thanks in advance. http://heikowaechter.com/wordpress/

Hi, is there a simple way to adjust the footer so on a content-light page such as this one

http://conkleton.co.uk/portfolio-category/packaging/

the footer is visible rather than sitting below the fold? Also, on longer pages I would the like the footer just to sit at the bottom of the page simply, rather than appearing from underneath the rest of the content, is that straight forward? It seems to work that way on the tablet / mobile sizes already.

Many thanks, Jamie

Hi Jamie,

You choose the way you want to show the footer in Laborator > Theme Options > Footer, if you don’t want it to show from the bottom then simply disable it from the options there.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi Art, I think I’ve not explained myself properly. I want to show the footer, but the problem I have is that currently on pages where the content is light (see example below) the footer ends up effectively being hidden, since you have to scroll to get it.

http://conkleton.co.uk/portfolio-category/packaging/

So rather than the footer sitting underneath the main wrap I would like it to be just after it, or above it, and not to be hidden by the page fold on pages with less content.

Hi Jamie,

When the footer is set as Fixed like in your case then you can’t show it directly, it will need a scroll to show. I could give you a custom CSS code but you cannot use it in the portfolio category.

P.S: You are using an old version of our theme (1.8.9.1) and the latest version for the moment is (1.9.3), please update theme first and then the premium plugins.

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

Hi,

first of all — i’m very happy with your theme!

I’ve got one thing i can’t reach with css..

I’d like to expand the with of the full width menu inner container, so that all menu items are visible horizontal, until the screensize changes to the mobile menu.

I can expand the with easily to «width: 100%», but the inner menu doesn’t align to center properly anymore then. I tried with «margin: auto» – what works everywhere else..

Can anybody help with the code?

At the moment, the page is running under: http://www2.jampen-holzbau.ch/wordpress/

Thanks!

well, there was an option — maybe not a very clean one..

.menu-horizontally-center .menu { display: -moz-grid-line !important; float: none !important; }

Please let me know if there are better options.. Guess it won’t work on IE etc..

Hi zalguod,

They are not the same, you can see on this video that they all are different, some offer different hover types, some show the text below the image, and some change the image when the item is hovered.

The demo is working for sure :)

Hello, I am very interested in the new photography theme. Hope it’s okay to ask a couple of questions before I purchase Kalium.

1. In the demo, the photography theme uses a masonry layout with no spacing. Is it possible to change this to a different layout, eg 3 column portfolio or portfolio grid?

2. In the photography lightbox, is it possible to disable some of the functionality, eg. zoom in/out or download photo?

Thanks in advance!

Hi hwaechter,

These questions are normal for every product you want to buy you want to know more about it :)

1. Absolutely, you can use any layout of the grid presented even in our other demos in how columns you want.

2. Yes, you can disable or enable almost all the options there.

Kind Regards,
Art

Thanks so much for the quick response. Purchased and installed =)

Hi. Is it possible to have a video gallery on this theme? And also, if there a version where the menu can be visible?

Thank you

Hi tmb11,

How do you mean a video gallery? You can have a gallery and show posts which then have their videos inside the posts.

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi. I mean having like a photo gallery but with videos, with a thumbnail of the video with a little play icon, and then when you click on it you can open the video or either play it on the gallery. Not as a posts, but as a gallery where you can have several columns with the videos. Thank you!

Hi tmb11,

Unfortunately that’s not possible with the Portfolio type, you can only have this by using the Blog type.

Kind Regards,
Art

It is possible to replace the icon for the Hamburger Menu in Kalium theme (three horizontal bars) with a png file?? I looked all the options and I can only change color, hide it or add text. Thank you!

http://bauldeinstantes.com/

also… I love the Lightbox function you included for portfolios, but I can not find the way to use it on a blog post, can you guide me?.... and 3…when I add a full width row, the text starts at 1-2 pixels from browser window edge, but my theme border is 22px so first letters are hidden behind the border. this do not happen on mobile. I tried adding padding but then the text is not aligned with the images. see test page http://bauldeinstantes.com/sergio-4/

Beautiful theme, it looks awesome!!
I am considering to purchase it for a woocommerce site and I have some pre-sale questions>
Is a testimonials carousel included? if not, which one would work fine?
Lastly, and most important, is this theme compatible with Ubermenu? (requirements are here: http://sevenspark.com/docs/ubermenu-3/requirements)
Thanks in advance!

One other question. If I purchase the theme and changing the main logo and menu position is not doable out of the box, could you assist me to make this possible? I need the logo in the mid center and the menu centered below the logo… Thanks again!

Hi Dariostar,

— We have designed the testimonials and it’s ready to be developed in the upcoming updates of the theme, right now the theme does not have this feature.

— Unfortunately not, we know it is an important plugin that needs to be included as we have previously included it in our other themes.

— We will help you for any problem or question you have regarding the theme, if we cannot find a solution you are free to request a refund then.

Could yo guys be so kind to at least answer me if the plugin “Switch Video Quality” is compatible with the video player for self hosted videos?.....

Hi Heferkimbo,

We haven’t used this plugin before, and it seem like a nice plugin. But i can see that this plugin works for Wordpress video player only.

You can give it a try, because as i saw this is a free plugin. If it works please tell us, because we can recommend this to some other users :)

Kind regards,
—Ylli

It doesn’t work :( .... Isn’t the default video player in Kalium the default one in WordPress. Are they different. i think they are right?, they do look different… its a shame, that plugin seriously looks promising

Hi Heferkimbo,

As Ylli stated we haven’t tried that earlier, but we will surely check it and see what we can do about it as we are trying to make the theme better everyday.

Kind Regards,
Art

demo does not load images to me idk why

so is it possible to make that box thing a post and make a page full of those boxes which would be posts. so the featured image of the post is the image that shows up with the title and category when u highlight the box it would show the title and category then when u click on the box it would go to the post and the post would have those boxes as pictures when u click on a picture it would bring up a lightbox. --- http://imgur.com/a/PsGLP Is this Possible?

picture explains this better

Hi travispluse,

That is not possible.
