Hi, I need to customize VICE theme for proper display on iPad, for example the albums look bigger and more covers. any suggestions?
Hi, do you already have a site I can check please? Also, would be better if you didn’t already, to open a ticket in the support forum, thanks!
Hey guys I finally found the problem why the video background is not working (trappedinstatic.com) – It is the news module (new module with type set to “News”), as soon as I added in the front page, video stops working, not sure why. Any ideas?
Hi! Is very streange. What this let me thinks about, is that some content of the news is breaking the javascript. To verify that, you can create a test page with just the video background and the news module, and please link it to me so I check.
You are right the problem is that some of the posts have an embed mp3 file which is breaking the javascript – i unpublished those posts and worked, but off course thats not a permanent solution. Also, when those posts are actually published and you click on them the embed mp3 is not showing. And another minor issue that whenever you close a post it automatically takes you to the top of the modular page, which shouldnt
Hi, to embed the mp3 are you using the embed shortcode? That should have no problems… Plus there is a way to nicely play any mp3 in the site’s player adding some data attributes to the link, for a cooler result.
But this doesn’t seems to be the problem, please can I log in the backend? You can send me the link to info@qantumthemes.com with the login, so I can check the settings.
Hey guys, our Google Maps issue is still not resolved.. This is almost 3 weeks in now – followed your instructions and still doesn’t work
Hi, we found out sometimes wordpress adds to the api key a code that breaks it, we already have a new theme version with the fix, but you can fix it already by adding this code to the file functions.php of the theme (at the end of the file is fine)
add_filter(‘clean_url’, ‘so_handle_038’, 99, 3); if(!function_exists(‘so_handle_038’)) { function so_handle_038($url, $original_url, $_context) { if (strstr($url, “googleapis.com”) !== false) { $url = str_replace(“&”, “&”, $url); // or $url = $original_url } return $url; }}
Please remember to change the quotes of the previous code with the normal ones of your keyboard as the forum here replaces them.
Hi there, good theme! I have a question about “Artists genres”.
I’ve created 4 genres as subelements of the macrocategory “Artists” like:
ARTISTS - 1 - 2 - 3 - 4
In every Artist page is flagged the category. But when I click, for example, number 2 from the Main Menu, the theme makes me see ALL artists, without a distinction.
What should I do???
Thanks in advance A.
I’d need to see a link because i don’t understand
“Hacking attempt detected” Help please , I’m creating the key but I get this error
Please just fill the captcha field “three plus two equal” and insert the number 5
I am having an issue with Visual Composer. I added a Tour module (vertical tabbed section) and I am trying to a youtube video but no matter what I try it doesnt seem to work. Any ideas? here is the page: http://trappedinstatic.com/epk/
—-i tried embed from youtube, i tried iframe, i tried just adding the link but nothing
For some weird reason, once you load the page it doesnt show up, once you resize your browser window (smaller or bigger size doesnt matter) it magically appears…
Hello! This happens because Visual COmposer is not compatible with ajax page loading. You can go in Appearance->Customize->Ajax and deactivate it.
Thank you for your reply. I actually had the Ajax load disabled but problem still there. Do you think its because the “tour element” does not load all the contents on page load, so when you actually click the tab that says “videos” you dont see anything, unless you resize the browser window and then shows up? maybe it needs some sort of fixed dimensions with extra code? Any help would be appreciated, i understand this is more of a visual compose issue then the theme.
I think this is the reason if you already disabled the ajax. Try to put it as first tab open, this should fix.
Thanks again for the reply. It did work right away when the tab was first. Any idea on how to pre-load whatever code needed so i can leave that tab second? or not possible? Thank you!
Is not possible is not matter of preloading, is because it doesn’t know the width of the size because when a tab is hidden it results without size.
(again)Thank you, I will do. I have other question. The radio reproductor does not sound in android, only in PC, What can I do? I need this function.
Hello! The player has 100% compatibility with any mobile, if there are issues, it is usually because on mobile it requires a longer caching (buffering) time to play. You can check by opening on the phone with chrome mobile the direct mp3 stream, and see how it works. The mobile network you are connected is as well the biggest limitation. You can check with speedtest.net from mobile your current speed.
Hi, the theme appears well on my desktop however horribly on my mobile. What must i do to make it mobile compatible. “website is “www.vandalye.com” if you would like to take a look. Thanks
You need to put the map api key following the manual, update to 1.5.9 version of the theme, put some widgets in the footer, upload a better quality picture, and then on mobile I don’t understand which exactly is the issue you refere to… We test the theme on iOS and Android, if you have any precise model and screenshot of the issue we can fix the issues better. PS your support is also expired, you need to renew it in order to receive more help please.
No map appears in my section events
Please be sure to have Vice 1.5.9 and implement the Google maps api as explained in the manual. Now is necessary to have the API key to work with the maps. Thanks!
Thank you, I will do. I have other question. The radio reproductor does not sound in android, only in PC, What can I do? I need this function.
It works actually pretty well everywhere. If you are sure that your stream is in mp3 format and for example opening it directly on chrome mobile it works, it has to work. Most of the times, mobile devices needs more buffering time before start playing. The buffer time is a parameter you can set in your radio streaming provider usually.
That the player works fine I’m very sure because we test on about 10 different real devices, and already cleared all kind of previous doubt about this, is the same engine used by soundcloud, mixcloud and more so is 100% mobile compatible. Usually is a matter of streaming settings and mobile connection speed.
how to access composer
The theme contains a plugin called Bootstrap shortcodes, you can create eolumns and so using the violet B button above the text editor.
I am not familiar with Bootstrap. I cannot seem to find the css file I usually find in Appearance/Editor/Vice, then make a copy edit and place in my Vice child theme. How do I do that here? Is there someone out there that can help me with a few things I need to get this styled how I need it? I would gladly pay someone for their help. I have two Vice site and I really want to learn it well. Thank you!
Hello!
The main CSS file of the theme is in
vice/css/main.css
Is not recommended to rewrite the original files as when you update your edits will be lost.
Instead, you can add your styles to the file styles.css
If you need some custom work, we have a professional pretty expert with our themes and he can make a quotation for you.
Please contact us at info@qantumthemes.com for more info, thank you!

How to create custom page template for VICE theme?
Hi, I don’t understand the question. Page templates are the one available with the theme, you ca create custom ones by adding template files to your child theme but if you mean this, you need to check the codex for more infos, customizations of this kind are not part of normal product support. If you meant anything else please explain me more, thanks!
This has happened before when I installed Visual Composer. I removed composer and installed Page Builder by Site Origin, the same thing happen and I removed it. Each time I removed those plugins, I have to reload the theme and its child theme. Well, now I installed another plugin and I got this and similar error again:
Deprecated: mysql_escape_string(): This function is deprecated; use mysql_real_escape_string() instead. in /home/**/public_html/wp-content/themes/vice-child/functions.php on line 47Fatal error: Cannot redeclare content_updt_theme() (previously declared in /home/mbelvqba/public_html/wp-content/themes/vice-child/functions.php:53) in /home/
**/public_html/wp-content/themes/vice/functions.php on line 53Please for the sake of God, I think you should help us be more open to third-party plugins because that’s the beauty of Wordpress. Thanks.
I have other website on the same server running Wordpress and I installed whatever plugins I want whenever I want to without issues. Please help us look into this.
Hi, the error you presented before regards a function in vice child function php at line 47. That’s your personal child function file and we didn’t put any function in there, specially with that name, so I think the issue comes from your customization of the child theme. Plus we don’t use any mysql_real_escape_string in the themes…
PS visual composer is not supported by this theme. Their team never wanted to collaborate to solve incompatibilities with their functions.
Hi Quantum T! Ok, we are embeding the Youtube video? And my developer says that “everytime I embed the code into the podcast page #8, all the layout get messed up,” http://mylivestudiomix.com/podcast/podcast-08/ He is using this code: <iframe src=’http://live.coachella.com/' width=”412px” height=”286px”/> (?) I was thinking to place this on an events page instead because it seems the post space is larger.. should we use another page? could you please let us know what we are doing wrong? Thanks so much!
Hi again! the video does work property its the layout may be because of the iframe and not because is a Youtube type video (I am not sure the difference between the two) but if this is the case, where on the release/podcast/artist can an external link be placed so we may link the video page to outside source? It may be better to do it this way overall,...I would really like to have this link on the artwork picture in the middle (of Coachella Turn up the Heat -see page) ? Can this be made to click to a link to an external page? We have the page done this far and I would like to keep the structure of the design yet make link discreet if possible: http://mylivestudiomix.com/podcast/podcast-08/ Thank you so very much – appreciate this !
Hello, I can’t see the site as there is a coming soon page. The theme provides support for Youtube and Vimeo embedding, the video you try to embed is not a common format, so we can’t provide support for this.
If you want to add a picture and link to the video, you can upload the image using the default Wordpress text editor, and then click on the picture and using the Icon button of the editor, link to the page.
There is a checkbox to select the target of the link.
Please use the support forum next time as we don’t usually provide support via Themeforest forum. Thanks!
Thank you so much !!
please can you recommend a third-party plugin that works in similar way to your event map plugin? Because the event is still not working with google map API keys. thanks.
Guys, your support system is very slow. seriously. Can you be more responsive? Thanks.
Hi, we usually answer within 24 hours, depending on the complexity of the question and on the tests we need to do to provide a good answer. I think we answered earlier to your question. Thanks!
Hi, I absolutely love your theme and doing a little customizing! Can I add YouTube videos in Events, Podcast, Artist and or Release pages? Also, are these pages post pages where I can post other material such as posting in a blog that can scroll down? Thanks so much!
Yes just link to a youtube url in the content and it will be rendered. Podcasts maybe supports youtube as posdcast URL in the custom field. In the releases, each track can have a youtube or soundcoud URL as well to embed the player.
You can add posts goin gin post->Add new, then you can create a page and choose £Blog” in the page template to create a blog archive. Then you can link this page from the Menu in Appearance->Menu
That’s so great, thank you! Now, can I use this livestream video player from youtube (have this put in) one of these pages.. in content or custom field—or? http://www.wordpressyoutubelivestream.com/ I need to set up a live stream page… if not.. can you tell me which page to use this in please? Thank you again!
or to embed this video: <iframe src=’http://live.coachella.com/'/> the embed code at youtube— this goes in to content on Podcast page.. then poof video with frame? yes?
on,ly youtube or vimeo are supported. Other formats or providers requires appropriate plugins or embedding technique, this is pretty out of the theme territory and the sites are not popupar like youtube, so I can provide only limited help for those, sorry!
One question, the artist can register and enter all your information by himself or each artist is registered by admin?
hello, each artist is created by the admin.
please with all the API keys, the map on the event still wouldn’t work. I need your help.
Please send your wordpress access to info@qantumthemes.com with explanation of the problem. Also, please check carefully that your information created in google maps are correct. If you configure something wrong on Google it won’t work. The theme simply appends a number in the maps code…
Where is the player files located?
what do you mean? the player is composed by php, javascript and css, what do you need exactly?
I think there is a bug about maps module In line 275 of functions.php there is: $mapsurl = add_query_arg(“key”, esc_url(trim($QT_gmapsapi)), $mapsurl); it my be replaced for: $mapsurl = add_query_arg(“key”, trim($QT_gmapsapi), $mapsurl);
by the way, for some reason i put my generated key in the template settings and still getting error “Google Maps API error: RefererNotAllowedMapError ….. Your site URL to be authorized”
I chose “Google Maps Geolocation API” or which one must be? Also chose “Browser” And already added the domain…
never mind, it was just necessary to enable some other APIs about maps. Tank you anyway!, great job!
Yes we added the option in Appearance->Customize->General to add your key
In the new manual section we explain how to do it in the right way.
Thanks!
Hey guys, google maps not working and can’t login to the forum (Says javascript error) please help
Hello, now google maps requires API. Please download the latest version of vice, and check the manual: it says how to obtain google maps API and implement it in the theme options (under appearance->Customize->General) thanks!
Hi Guys, fully aware of this.. However, obtained API and still not working. Integrated key
That’s strange as is the first case i hear this happening, all other customers have it working. Something VERY important: when making the API key, did you configure it correctly for your domain? I mean for example
not only
www.yoursite.com
but [.yoursite.com/]
without square brackets
Yeah I did! Don’t understand it at all – happy to screenshare via google hangouts? jimmy@pushingtrolleys.com
Linked to analytics, webmaster tools… Really can’t figure it out
or skype
Keeps saying this over and over – This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details. (API as per documentation), please help me out
send an email please to info@qantumthemes.com with your website url, user and password. thanks!
I emailed everything a few hours ago. Tnx
Hi guys, can you please confirm if you received my email – We want to go live asap and start our inbound marketing strategy.. Events is quite important for us, as this is where the revenue comes from via our direct channel
Hello, received and answered. We found out some plugins were interferring with the API key output. If you still have problems let me know. Please check the email and the information contained to complete the API procedure, thanks!
Hi Guys, huge thanks for helping out and we love your theme. Unfortunatley something is not right yet, events still not loading, we integrated api – Autorised our website via websmasters, all steps following your tutorial.. I know this is frustrating on both sites, however, would be great to get it working
Hello, we recently found that with some servers the API key was being rewritten by the security purging of the data. The new theme version will fix, please redownload it from themeforest and update it via FTP, or just update the functions.php file by replacing it. The issue will be fixed, thanks!
