Hi there, First of all, your website looks really great. I was wondering if it’s easy to change the yellow colors easily.

You can change the color scheme from yellow to any other colors in Theme Options panel with just a click. Also, for other parts such as background color and images, you can change them easily by using Visual Composer page builder.

I am looking to repurchase this theme for another project but have huge concerns with page load/speed performance. Google test grades this (http://wydethemes.com/flora6) theme as follows: Mobile friendliness is good at 99/100, Mobile speed is poor at 59/100, and Desktop speed is poor at 60/100. Are you guys working to improve page load/speed issue?

As you can see in the Suggestions Summary from the testing results.

There are 2 main issues in the Suggestions Summary.

1. Eliminate render-blocking JavaScript and CSS: This theme follows WordPress standard to include JavaScript and CSS files, the number of render-blocking files depends on the number of plugins you’ve installed on your website too. However, we will try to reduce the render-blocking scripts to improve the scores in the future.

2. Optimize images: We’re using high resolution images on our demo sites. To work around this issue, you should use smaller ones and optimize your images before uploading to your website so you won’t see this problem when you test your site.

Hi there. Please, see this screenshot: https://gyazo.com/63cf8682adb4b4aeeb4471f847b5766b

How can I crop the columm size of the blog posts? As you can see, there is a lot of empty space under the thext. I’m using the Flora Blog Posts element on Visual Composer, with the grid layout.

Thanks!

Hi there,

I’m not sure why each block of the post is too long on your end but I just visited your website, it’s not bad for me. Looks like you’re using a small (narrow) screen so the columns are narrower than on my end.

However, you can change the number of grid columns to suit the page container width and you can also set the excerpt length so you will have more text that fits the height of each block.

Hello I’m having 2 problems with the flora template: 1- Parallax does not work for me in google chrome 2- The text animations work but when the animation ends the texts disappear.

You can check my website: http://www.coffeeplanetcorp.hn/

I hope you can help me.

Greetings.

Hello,

I’m sorry but I couldn’t access your website. Seems like it’s under construction or currently in the maintenance mode.

However, try to update the theme to see if it works because it’s working fine on our demos.

We use this theme on our site, but the custom name for the portfolio keeps breaking by itself and we get 404 errors. Its only when we happen to noitice that its broken that we know about it and I then have to log into the site and either go to the permalinks bit of settings and just hit “save” or go to the area within the theme settings where we choose the custom slug for the portfolio and hit “save” to force it to refresh. This is obviously doing us no good in terms of broken links through Google and site visitor experience. Please help!

Thank you for your kind understanding :)

Hi again – just to update you on this, the permalinks on our site had broken by themselves again. Please look can you keep looking into this as I don’t know how long these have been broken for this time. Its getting ridiculous! Same deal as before, no changes to the settings and suddenly the links are all dead 404s. Never seen it in another theme.

I’m not sure but I just visited your website and everything is working fine. Seems like you’ve figured it out.

Anyway, we’ve removed all ‘flush_rewrite_rules()’ from the theme. I have no idea why this issue is still happening on your site. Please make sure there is no custom code regarding the rewrite rules in functions.php of your child theme.

If you’d like you can PM me your site URL and admin login: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact so I can check it for you.

Hi,

How can i create a 1px border across the different sections like this:

https://postimg.org/image/r3echrsax/

Thanks.

Here’s the custom CSS to add border across the different sections on the shop page:


<style type="text/css">
    .post-type-archive-product .main-content,
    .post-type-archive-product #footer-widget,
    .post-type-archive-product #footer-bottom{
        border-top: 1px solid red;
    }
</style>

I tried to move the product image galleries to the left of the main image but the best i could manage is this:

https://s27.postimg.org/sfwu04ps3/gallery_images_left.jpg

how can i set the thumbnails to 1 column and align them vertically?

I’m sorry for taking so long to get back to you!

By default, the thumbnails are working as carousel 3 columns. To set the thumbnails to 1 column, you will need to disable the carousel.

Try to add custom JS into Theme Options -> Advanced -> Body Content as below to see if it works:


<script type="text/javascript">
    /* Single Product Images */
    jQuery(window).on("wyde.page.ready", function () {

        setTimeout(function(){
            jQuery(".single-product .images .thumbnails.owl-carousel").owlCarousel().trigger('destroy.owl.carousel').removeClass("owl-carousel");
        }, 1000);

    });

</script>

There’s a problem with blog post page – sometimes it’s huge white space between posts elements – in inspector it’s in inline css and top value (absolute position). It’s in grid or flora layout, with pagination or infinite scroll. Even when I upgrade WP and theme files to latest version the problem exist. Maybe it’s related with media query? Please help, it’s so annoying..

Could you please PM me your blog page URL so I can inspect the code to find if there was something wrong: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Hello, Did you look at the code?

Hello,

Sorry for taking a long time to get back to you!

Sure I’ve inspected the code and I found you have custom CSS that set the height of the blog grid to “auto”.

All posts in the grid layout should have the same height so they will fit properly, to work around this you should remove below code from style.css in your child theme:


.w-blog-posts.grid-3-cols .w-item > .post {
    height: auto !important;
}

Hi, there! Please, take a look in this picture: https://gyazo.com/1aa9a563c9c8387fc1a44f1f144428c5

I have a columm with some dark background. If I use a Light Style for text, the blog post and titles becomes grayed out… almost unreadable. If I use a Dark Style for text, it Works fine for the blog posts as you can see on the Picture. However, I use some widgets elements on the collum (tags, as you can see), and now the Widget Titles lacks contrast. Is there a way to change the color only for the widget titles? Or maybe use a light style for text and then change the colors for the blog posts and its titles?

There is some css form on the respective Visual Composer element, but I don’t have any experience with css, so could you please help me out? Thanks.

To work around this without using CSS, you should add widgets element into another column/row so you can change the different Text Style for it.

You can add 2 sub rows into the parent row so you can add the blog posts element and the widgets element into different row and can set the different text style for each.

Hi! I am having trouble updating the favicon through the theme. The option seems to be missing. Any advice? Should I update via FTP?

Thanks!

Hi,

WordPress 4.3 and greater come with Favicon settings, you can set up in Appearance -> Customize -> Site Identity -> Site Icon.

Hey, question about Portfolio pages. At this moment when i post something on the portfolio page i have to use a “Featured Image” that will appear on the Porfolio page and the page itself. Now, its there any way possible to display this image just on the Porfolio page but disable it on the page itself? (so i can insert a custom picture or Slider Revolution). Second, can i disable the original title of the page so i can use custom title? (since the original title can’t be customized, or have insufficient customization available in “Flora Options/Title Area”). For this one tried a workaround by not naming the page at all, but for long term posting it’s not ok.

Hi,

Seems like the Title Area option is working fine. I can hide the page title area so it displays the portfolio title instead.

When you hide the page title area on the post or portfolio single page, it will show the post title at the top of the post content instead.

If you’d like to hide both page title area and post title, you have to add custom CSS into Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content as below:


<style type="text/css">
    .single-wyde_portfolio .post-content .post-title{
        display:none;
    }
</style>

This last piece of code did exactly what i was looking for. Thanks again for solving our problems, sincerely, the community!

Happy to hear that it has been resolved :)

Hi

How can i add border to the 3 small product images in the product detail page?

Thanks.

Hi,

Here’s the code to add border to the product thumbnails on the product detail page.

<style type="text/css">

.woocommerce-page .images .thumbnails img{
    border: 1px solid #ccc;
}

</style>

Add it into Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content.

Hey there,

A couple of questions:

1. Is there a way to change the “Order By” setting of a Portfolio Grid? It’s currently showing as “Order By: Date, Sort Order: Descending”, however, I’d like to keep the images static, so each part of the grid has an assigned image.

2. Is there a way to edit a portfolio page without it being seen. I want to switch order the layout of my current Portfolio pages, and I tried setting one of them to Private, but it was still showing up as live. I don’t want to mess up the SEO we’ve created for that page by creating a whole new one, so I’m wondering if you know the best way to go about this.

Thanks!

Hello Wyde team I need to know a few thinks about this theme:

1first: Im using a different font for my company graphiic line, i was thinking ifits posssible to usa a different font for example in the titles? is that possible?

2ond: I havos some icons that belongs to our graphic linr too. Is it possible to use those in this theme? and how i do that?

Hello,

1. You can use your custom fonts via CSS in your child theme as follows:

1. Install and activate flora-child-theme.zip.

2. Upload your font files to "wp-content/themes/flora-child-theme/fonts/" on your server.

3. Navigate to Appearance -> Editor on WordPress admin to edit Flora Child theme.

4. Add the custom CSS into Stylesheet (style.css) as below:

/* Definition */
@font-face {
    font-family: 'your_font_name';
    src: url('fonts/your_font_name.eot');
    src: url('fonts/your_font_name.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
        url('fonts/your_font_name.woff') format('woff'),
        url('fonts/your_font_name.ttf') format('truetype'),
        url('fonts/your_font_name.svg#your_font_name') format('svg');
    font-weight: normal;
    font-style: normal;
}

/* Use */
h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
    font-family: 'your_font_name'!important;
}

2. The icon library in the theme are all font icons. If your icons are font icons too, you can add them into the Flora icons set by following below steps:

1. Please make sure you're using the Flora Child theme.

2. Go to Appearance -> Editor to edit Flora Child theme.

3. Add the below code to Theme Functions (functions.php):

function flora_get_custom_icons($icons){
    $your_icons = array(
        array( "your-icon-1" => "Icon 1" ),
        array( "your-icon-2" => "Icon 2" ),
    );

    return array_merge_recursive( $icons, $your_icons );
}
add_filter( 'flora_iconpicker_icons', 'flora_get_custom_icons' );

The above code will append your icons into the Flora icon set.

4. Upload your icon files to child theme folder “wp-content/themes/flora-child-theme/fonts/”.

5. Add you CSS font icons into style.css in your child theme:

@font-face {
  font-family: 'your-icon';
  src: url('fonts/your-icon.eot');
  src: url('fonts/your-icon.eot#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'),
       url('fonts/your-icon.woff') format('woff'),
       url('fonts/your-icon.ttf') format('truetype'),
       url('fonts/your-icon.svg') format('svg');
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
}

[class^="your-icon-"]:before, [class*=" your-icon-"]:before {
    font-family: 'your-icon';
    speak: none;
    font-style: normal;
    font-weight: normal;
    font-variant: normal;
    text-transform: none;
    -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
    -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}

.your-icon-1:before { content: '\e800'; }
.your-icon-2:before { content: '\e801'; } 

However, if your icons are images, you should add them to the page by using the Single Image or the Text Block instead.

I am trying to edit the demo page but this is all I see. It is the Home Page of the first Demo. https://my.pcloud.com/publink/show?code=XZ0f0xZoyBevcFhq7krRBoOkhFju8e5RpaX

Please make sure you’re always using the latest update of the Visual Composer plugin.

You should update the theme to get the new update of the Visual Composer.

If you’re using version 4.9 or older, there is a bug that prevents users updating it via the theme so after you update the theme, you will need to delete the old version of Visual Composer from your Plugins page first. Then you will see a notification message to install the new one that’s included in the theme.

If it doesn’t work, try to deactivate other plugins to see if it works.

Having SSL issues. Do you think I might encounter SSL issues with font paths with this theme? Have you any other ideas? Thanks a lot

If you’re using SSL, please set both WordPress Address (URL) and Site Address (URL) settings in Settings -> General to ‘https://' instead of ‘http://'.

Hi, I have tasted your theme with a website and know i go for the second, and by now the theme looks great! I have a question that I couldn’t resolve by my self.

I have the one page option, so all the pages that are in the menu goes to home page. The thing is that I want to create a second page in other lenguage and I would put other pages with this other lenguage inside this second “homepage”.

I’m working in local and I usually touch php and javascript code but I’m not an expert. Just say this to tell you that I’m not afraid to touch code.

Thanks!

Hi,

You should use the multi-lingual plugin instead of editing the code.

This theme is compatible with WPML plugin ( https://wpml.org/ ), you can see how to setup the multi-language site here: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/

However, if you’d like to edit the code, please do it via your child theme. If you edit any file in the theme directly, your changes will be lost when you update the theme.

Hey,

When I updated last I lost the little image of the shopping trolley next to the cart button on the menu. How can I get this back?

Thanks, Kieran

Hi,

My apology, this is a bug of the theme. Thank you for reporting this issue, it will be fixed in the next update.

Hi ! Got one issue about the “link” button shortcode from wyde core. It appears on the desktop version but not on the mobile version (except when i choose desktop version ON my mobile)...;

Does it have a responsive option that i did not choose ?

We have never seen this issue before, please make sure you’re using the latest update of Visual Composer and all bundled plugins.

Try to update your Flora theme to get the latest update of all bundled plugins.

If it still doesn’t work, please PM me your site URL: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact
