It’s a nice & simple theme that does the job
Hi,
thanks 
UT
getting better with all of this.
how do i make the body copy font black and not the grey color? I’ve tried different fonts, but all of them are grey.
Thanks!
Hi,
there is no built in option to change the body font colour, so you need to make use of some custom CSS in this case.
body {
color: #000;
}
You can place this CSS inside the Theme Options Panel > Advanced > Custom CSS. However keep in mind, that you can change the font colour inside each section individually. There is a config tab named “Colour Settings” beneath the editor when editing a page

I love this template. I’m also looking for an option to include ecommerce to sell designs off my site. I am a complete newbie, so forgive me for a silly question, but is this something that could be added onto the site easily? How does that work?
Hi,
easiest way would be to install a plugin like woo commerce. Brooklyn does not come with a design for a shop, so the shop will display with it’s default design after activating. You need to manually change the layout if it does not fit your requirements.
http://www.woothemes.com/woocommerce/However the theme will work with this template, so it’s the only one we recommend at this point.
Hope this helps!
Best Regards UT
HI,
I’m thinking about using the Brooklyn theme for my photography website and would like to know if it will handle having multiple pages. I want to have separate pages for each of my photo galleries as well as some separate info pages. If I set it up up that, will it hinder the performance of the theme?
Thanks,
Adam
Hi Adam,
even if you would place different portfolios on a single page like the front page, the loading of these portfolios is viewport driven and does not affect the initial site loading. However if you are working with lots of images, please choose your web hosting provider wisely, even with the mentioned optimized loading, we cannot guarantee a decent speed when using a 0.99 Cent hosting package This just an info to avoid frustration.

Hi,
Love the theme. I have a client that is interested in it… but we need to have IE8 compatibility. Is there any chance that there’s a version that’s compatible down to IE8?
Thanks!
Or can you identify what elements included in the theme cause problems with IE8? Maybe this plugin would correct them?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-ie-enhancer-and-modernizer/Hi,
we have never tested our theme with IE8 so we are not able to give you any feedback about the affected elements. While a plugin like the posted one can help I’m afraid that some issues won’t be fixed by the plugin and cause frustration with the site usage.
Best Regards UT
Thanks for the reply!
You are welcome
Hello, how do I add parallax effect to the “Background Image Slider” in Hero Type?
Thank You.
Hi,
adding such an effect is only possible by using the Slider Revolution plugin. The built in Slider does not come with such a feature.

Hi,
I am having problems creating the team section as per demo 6. I am not clear as per the steps that I should take to add the images of the team members to that section.
Same issue with a portfolio section.
I read the documentation but no luck.
Do you have a step by step explainer? Where do I need to add the Images of the team members and their job titles in order for it to appear as per demo 6. Same thing for the portfolio.
Thank you in advance for your kind reply.

how do i remove or edit the top image of the home page?
Hi,
you can change the image inside the Theme Options Panel under Front Page – Hero Type
Best Regards UT
i’m sorry. where exactly is the option to turn off the default header on the blog page? it’s not obvios, so great detail would be appreciated. https://www.dropbox.com/s/7a8belqjgkfx3mt/Screenshot%202015-02-19%2005.14.09.png?dl=0 thanks.
Hi,
looks like there is a visual issue with the theme panel. We recommend to deactivate other plugins which are not part of the theme, so you have a better overview. However the Blog Hero is managed inside the Blog and not the Front Page tab.
Theme Options > Blog > Hero Type ( Choose desired Type ) and use the upload field which occurs to place / replace the hero iamge.
Best Regards UT
please tell me how to remove or hide the hero type so it does not show. i don’t want it to show at all. ??

Hi,
I am trying to find a way to link to sections of the website i.e. I want to have a simple link in the content that says click here and it goes to the about us page (section) for the one page website etc. I can not find a way to do that.
Any thoughts?
Thanks, Chris

I am loving the theme so far and the client is happy… We have something we need to figure out though.
- I want to add a few more social icons that you do not have. one for CAREERS (I can make the icon), ITUNES and GOOGLE PLAY how can I accomplish this? Its for the TEAM MEMBERS section. The style with Icons on mouseover of the picture.
Any help would be appreciated Thanks! Brendan
Hi,
adding own icons is not that easy because we are using fonts in this case. There are a few tutorials around on how to add own icons to the library, like this one here : http://spin.atomicobject.com/2012/12/16/create-your-own-font-awesome-icons/ But on the whole it’s pretty much work since you need to keep track of your changes with every theme update.
You should take a manual code change inside the child theme into consideration and place the icons ( for example png ) files inside the templates/template-team.php file. This is less work and due to the use of a child theme easier to update.
Best Regards UT
Would you be able to elaborate on the second suggestion? thanks for the response btw
I’m just not sure the specifics on how to get it to work . my PHP editing is pretty limited. I presume I could make new entries for the new social links I want by duplicating the following code in the template-team php file and replacing it so it adds new ones to the social list in team members options:
<?php if( !empty($member['ut_member_xing']) ) : ?>
<a class="ut-so-link" href="<?php echo $member['ut_member_xing']; ?>"><i class="fa fa-xing fa-lg" /></a>
<?php endif; ?>
But then I dont know what to do, make my own class? not sure how to edit the ‘ut_member_xing’ part or what that even does etc.

Hi, I can’t seem to change the theme to demo #13 – there is no option in the main theme options panel. It only goes up to 11. Help please? This is urgent.
Hi,
please make sure you are using the latest theme version. You can re download the theme here at themeforest in order to update it to the latest version.
Best Regards UT
Hi, I would like to purchase this theme to use the gaming theme (demo12) but only if it is possible to keep the slide out colour selection panel that you are showing on the demo so visitors can change the colour of the mouse animation. Is this possible please?
Hi,
the panel we have on the left is only for demo purposes and not part of the theme sorry.
Best Regards UT
hello,
I purchased this template and I wanted to install the demo 1 but in the files no images and therefore the installed demos are not identical to online demos. I am very disappointed because when I install a demo with joomla it is identical to the online demo by the author. I do not have time to look for because I have a lot of work and little time to spend on building a site, how to set images and modules to operate them. By buying this template I thought to install and change text and images only. I am very disappointed and a little angry. Thank you for your help.
Hi,
binding images the preview results in a copyright violation since we do not own these images, that’s why they are not part of the download. There are exceptions depending on which images have been used ( different license ).
Best Regards UT
Hi,
I already bought joomla templates or images were provided with the template. This saves hugely time during installation . This saves a lot of time during installation. On the other hand , since we are professional you should know that there are copyright free images. Have you created an explanatory screen capture video of your template ? Because when we started with wordpress it is not obvious. Otherwise I have to tell you that your template are very beautiful. Read you soon.
Hi,
indeed there are a bunch of free ones out there but sometimes they simply do not fit our requirements to create something outstanding We do not have screen captures yet, but add some asap. In meantime please use our support forum if you have question. Our support will be more than happy to help you with your questions.

I am sure I will love it but I am not that bright….homer simpson thinks I’m an idiot. I say this up front because when I saw the advertising of one click install I believed it. However one click installs only work on new sites with wordpress? As you say here; “With version 2.2 of Brooklyn we have added the brand new wordpress demo importer. You can find the demo importer under “Appearance” -> “Demo Importer”. It’s an easy one click installer. Before you attempt to run this importer please make sure:
-You are running a clean WordPress Installation -No Pages or Posts are published ( delete the standard posts and pages too ) -All Plugin which the theme recommends need to be installed -Make sure that the wp-content folder is writeable ( the script needs tocreate the upload folder if it doesnt exists already )”
So that means there is no one click install for sites that have existing content right?
Hi,
a new installation just makes sure, that there are no articles with the same name for example or menus with the same name. This can cause issues.
Best Regards UT
I saw the one click video then bought it. then had to ftp this and that and after I jumped through hoops this is what happens when I click to active child theme http://123idx.com/ nothing close to the sales video.
Hi,
but the video of the one click install does not use a child theme. You need to understand how a child theme works, while it has the same features like it’s parent theme you need to configure it independently from the parent theme. Assign a menu for example ( which is mandatory for the one page ).
just tried to do like your video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YJH1x4DtsZU and didnt use the child theme and as you can see still the same. I did just like the sales video. so its not a one click…ok so I assigned it a menu….still the same. nothing like the one click video
Hi,
it’s definitely a one click, there are tons of people who have used it before and inside the video you can see it as well.
But as stated above you might run into issues when there is existing content already. That’s why we recommend to use a clean install. If you like to keep the existing content and you ran the importer you need to re configure the system. Means assign the menu as your “primary menu” which the demo importer has created.
Since this here is a pre sale question related area please join our support forum and our support will help you to troubleshoot.

Hi, I want to add a ‘smooth scroll’ link in the text so it goes to a page lower down. At the moment the link ‘jumps’ to the section instead of doing the ‘smooth’ scroll down feature.
How do I make the link scroll down smoothly to the page?
Hi,
at the current stage only our ut button shortcode supports the smooth scroll effect. For custom links you need some extra JS. Please open a thread in our support forum and refer to this question and we will provide you the extra code.

Hi there, awesome theme! Question: Can I customise the look of the United player..its too stylised for my website. I need to change the border colour and the play button shape.
Thank you in advance:)
Hi,
each shortcode accepts the class attribute:
[ut_united_video class="mycustomplayer"]So you can easily overwrite the player default layout. Hope this helps!
Best Regards UT
