Hi there, with regards to this page: http://demos.volovar.net/bluecollar.wp/demo/elements/alert-message/

Is it using a custom menu in the custom left hand sidebar?

If so, may you share how did you style the custom menu effects?

Thanks!

Hi,

yes, this is s regular WP custom menu widget. I am not exactly sure what do you mean by “how did you style the custom menu effects”.

Lubos

Sorry, I meant is it possible to style the custom menu to have icons just like the service details “menu” – http://demos.volovar.net/bluecollar.wp/demo/services/electricity/ ?

That would require custom coding and you will have to hire a freelancer for that.

Hi there,

Is there a way to add a block of text to this below page?

http://demos.volovar.net/bluecollar.wp/demo/services/

It seems that this page cannot be found under Pages in the dashboard.

Thanks!

Hi,

this is not a regular page, it is generated automatically. It can be edited only via code in archive-lsvrservice.php file.

Hi there,

I have purchased the theme.

Will like to understand how can we add a custom sidebar to the services details page?

I believe VC does support custom sidebar when we are building a page. But I cannot seem to find the element while composing the page.

Please advise.

Thanks!

Hi,

unfortunately, service detail does not support custom sidebar. You can only toggle the existing sidebar under Theme Options / Services. Making that sidebar editable, would require some code change. The file in question is single-lsvrservice.php in theme’s root. You can copy it into your child theme to make the change, but if you are not familiar with PHP coding, you will have to hire a freelancer for that.

The widget used there is called “Service List”, but its styling is bind to the sidebar. So if you insert it via Visual Composer into the content, it may not look as it looks in the regular sidebar. Fixing this should be a matter of some simple Custom CSS, so if you go that route, let me know and I may be able to help you with this.

Hi, is there a way to edit the themes code so we can make the logo on our website even bigger please?

Hi,

logo is limited by max height, you can change it with this Custom CSS:

.header-branding .brading-logo img { max-height: 100px; }

Lubos

Hi, Just a pre-buy question. On the main page, the sectoral icons are very good. We will need icons for electricity (already exist), intelligent home systems, audio systems, alarm, camera, solar energy. How can we get the suitable icons for these fields. We will change the theme for a company operating on these fields.

Hi,

you can see all built-in icons here. Theme also contains FontAwesome icons.

There are also several 3rd party plugins which will add even more icons.

However, if you need some very specific, custom set of icons, you will have to hire a freelancer as that will probably require bit of coding.

Hi, I need help to translate the theme.

Where I can translate “More Info” in service boxes in header?

I try translate in en_GB.po in language file of the theme and in lsvrtoolkit-en_GB in language file of the plugin, but it don’t works.

Thanks André

Try to take a look into theme’s .po file. Many strings have to be translated there.

I found the error, your plugin code must be changed <?php _e( ‘All Projects’, ‘lsvrtheme’ ); ?> to <?php _e( ‘All Projects’, ‘lsvrtoolkit’ ); ?>

You are right. I will fix it in the next update. Thanks for feedback!

Installing the demo content is not enough to make t look like the demo, please read the rest of the documentation. There is even quick reference guide so you can see where to set up the specific parts of the page. You should start in Settings / Reading and set up your front page. Again, please read WHOLE documentation, everything is explained there.

Hi – The letter ‘x’ in post header is representaing as a ”/” slash:

See here: http://commsew.ignitionwebsite.com/products/4x4-products/

Can you let me know how to fix it? Thanks.

Hi,

that doesn’t look like a regular “x” character but some sort of special symbol. Please try type a regular “x” character.

Lubos

Hi Lubos – Thanks for athat and sorry for wasting your time. I should have seen that! Thanks again.

No problem!

Wondering if this would support Woo Commerce

Hi,

there is no native support for WooCommerce.

Lubos

Hi, I can’t import demo.xml completly, the images not upload, could you help me with that please.

I want to make it like home 3, but doesn’t work yet, I’m trying to add shortcode of the slider with background image. What i need to do it?

Again, you need to edit the Slider element in Visual Composer (the page builder). There is an option for the slider background.

Oh excellent, thanks

Are you planning to add the ability to create widgets on the Services/Portfolio pages any time soon?

We need more than just a sub menu on these pages, and whilst we could hack it ourselves I’d prefer not to if it’s something you are going to implement… TIA

Hi,

I do not plan to add this feature in the near future. However, if you are going to do it yourself, then just copy single-lsvrservice.php from parent theme folder to child theme and then add your custom sidebar code after line 50. The code itself should look something like this:

<?php if ( is_active_sidebar( 'your_custom_sidebar_id' ) ) : ?>
<?php dynamic_sidebar( 'your_custom_sidebar_id' ); ?>
<?php endif; ?>

You also need to register your sidebar in child theme’s function.php file via register_sidebar function. That way you can safely update the theme in the future without losing those modification.

Lubos

Ok great, we’ve got it all working now thanks.

Hi. I need to center the buttons. I looked into css and shortcode php but i dont know how to change. also in the next update it will be good to add also the default visual composer component and not only theme specific. But now urgently i need to center the buttons . there is no options left center or right

Hi,

1.) you will need to add the button as shortcode, select whole text (with shortcode tags) and center it as you do with a regular text. Or it should be possible to center it via some custom CSS, please share your URL where I can see those buttons.

2.) default VC elements are not officially supported by this theme and that’s not going to change. However, you can enable them like this.

Lubos

Hi, is it easy to change the color scheme on the Blue Collar Handyman theme?

Hi,

you can check out the documentation on how to do that and see yourself if it’s easy enough for you.

Lubos

How do I add a paragraph to the Footer CTA? Enable Footer CTA Globally Footer CTA Title (no paragraph option) Footer CTA Button Label Footer CTA Button Link Bottom Panel Columns

Hi,

Paragraphs are added in the same way as in default WP content editor on regular pages/posts – just hit “enter” key (make sure to edit Theme Options via Theme Options link, NOT via Appearance / Customize).

But I’ve just noticed there is a small margin between paragraphs in CTA so the text may seem like not being divided into paragraphs. Add this Custom CSS into Theme Options for a larger margin:

.c-cta-message p { margin-top: 15px; }

Good Morning,

I want to translate the “More Info” button services “Header” but can not find how. I can indicate where should I go to do the translation.

Utilio LocoTranlate and POedit.

Thank you

Hi,

this string should be visible in LocoTranslate or in the .po file when you are translating via POedit.

Lubos

Thank you,

I edited multiple files in PHP template wordpress to solved the translation and I copied in the child theme.

Yes, that’s also possible solution.

I was wondering if there was a way to place a secondary navigation menu at the very top in the black bar area that displays when the fixed top bar is off?

Hi,

sorry, but something like that has to be custom coded.

Lubos

Good Morning,

I want to change the icons that come in the demo by other Nova icons but I find that the icons shown in the installation manual load your not me. What is happening? only load some loose that do not interest me.

Thank you

So the problem is that no icons are displayed on your site (there are squares instead) or only some icons do not work? Please share your URL

you can pass the URL into a private message? I have it on a test platform

Hello I am trying to install the template exactly as instructed on the manual and is not working. Ive got the latest version of wordpress and followed the instructions exactly. Still doesn’t work. Ive done this a few times with clean install every time and it doesn’t work, can you please advise if there is anything I am missing or of there is a more updated version of the manual or steps to install. Thanks

Demo images are not included. Feel free to share your URL.

just sent a private message

You got a reply. Jjust for the record, the only thing what is missing compared to demo are demo images, which are not part of the theme. Those images are copyrighted and can’t be redistributed. The fact that images are not included is mentioned in item description and is the same for most themes on ThemeForest.

How to change PAGE TITLE on http://demos.volovar.net/bluecollar.wp/demo/services/ ? I use YOAST SEO, where I can change any page/post title but in this case (page with all services) I can’t becouse I don’t see it on wp-admin. So what file I must edit to change PAGE TITLE on this page?

Hi,

you can change it under Theme Optons / Services.

Lubos

Sorry I don’t precise. I change it under Theme Optons / Services but I see change page title only on front end but in meta tag title not. So where I can change page title in meta tag too? :)

Changing the title under Theme Options / Services affects the meta title as well. If it does not then it is being overriden via your Yoast settings or something like that.
