Hi ..I would like to buy this theme ..but before that I wanna know if there is an option in a gallery page you click on an image(thumbnail) instead of the same image zooming in, a different image should appear ..

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in purchasing our theme. Unfortunately the Gallery Module does not have that option. However the Portfolio has an option called LIGHT BOX gallery, where by when you click on an image in the portfolio grid, you can pop open a set of images you choose in the backend. Hope this helps. I have not come across a gallery solution, that opens a different image to that of the thumbnail. It seems counter intuitive.

Thanks, Swami

Hi, after update 5.01 from 4.61 with tatsu, the translations of “contact” (submit, name, etc) and details in portfolio single (category, share this, etc) No longer work…

Hi,

We have introduced a new plugin called OSHINE MODULES where the old contact form shortcode now resides. You just need to translate this plugin, just like how you used to do the old page builder. We had to make it standards compliant and for future stability & scalability, that’s why the introduction of new plugin, in addition to Tatsu. With regards to the issue you are facing with the new builder, don’t worry, kindly mail the list to help@brandexponents.com and we will address all of them. In a lot of cases we found that not follow the instructions, server configurations and 3rd party plugins were the main cause of issues. We have been patching fixes and an update is due even tomorrow. So you will see things stabilizing shortly as the plugin gains more exposure and once these patches are available. We have been very pro-active and are aggressively fixing issues and adding features.

Thanks, Swami

hi, I have already translated this module but it does not change anything. It does not work.

Hi,

Kindly follow the instructions below the translate the text strings.

a. Install the Loco Translate plugin from the wordpress repository

b. Navigate to LOCO TRANSLATE -> PLUGINS panel from your wordpress admin area and select the plugin ( OSHINE MODULES in your case ) you want to translate.

c. In the Overview tab, click New Language.

d. Skip the template creation process

e. Choose your language & choose a location. We would recommend choosing Custom the location. Click on the Start Translating Button.

f. Choose the text strings you want to translate from the Source texts and Enter their translations.

g. Once you are done translating the strings you want, click on the Save button. You will see a confirmation stating that .po and .mo files were compiled.

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami,

Wow, this update to Oshine 5 is not going well! First, there wasn’t much warning in the Wordpress update page stating this upgrade was a major change. I did the one button upgrade thing, only to find out later that there was procedure to be followed when my website wasn’t working properly.

So, I had to backtrack and make the updates, but now things don’t seem to be working so great in Tatsu page builder. Modules aren’t drag and drop as apparently they are supposed to be. You can click on them and they do nothing half of the time. It took me 1 hour to put up three buttons!

Cashes are turned off, so I don’t think the problem lies there.

Don’t know if others are experiencing the same issues, or if these problems are limited to my system, but editing is hellish under Tatsu! I’m happy to forward any technical info that might help you sort things out if this is a bug.

Regards,

D.

Hi,

Apologies for the inconveniences you are having, but I need to inspect your site to see what may be going wrong in your site. No one else has reported this issue and sounds unusual as Tatsu has been built to make things easier. Kindly send your wordpress admin url, ID and password to help@brandexponents.com .

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami,

Meant to write sooner, but I solved the problem. It had to do with two caches in use: the one in Oshine options and W3 Total Cache.

I purged the W3 Total cache but the problem persisted. So I went into Oshine options, set the cache to “OFF”, saved the settings, then set cache to “ON” and saved the settings again. The problem was still there, so I went back to W3 Total Cache and purged that. Suddenly everything was working properly.

Still, the BUTTON module in TATSU is buggy. You can’t seem to drag and drop buttons to other rows or sections.

Other than that, starting to really love this update, Great work!

Hi,

I am glad clearing the cache resolved the issues for you. After clearing caches in the backend you should also usually clear your browsers cache for changes to take effect in your computer. We are not having issues dragging and dropping buttons in our test setups. Could you kindly share your wordpress admin access to help@brandexponents.com to inspect. Which browser are you using by the way ?

Thanks, Swami

Hello Swami,

there is something which literally drives me crazy. I have been trying for the past whole day to figure out how to make 3 buttons next to each other looking exactly the same – each has 2 words in them. (using splitscreen right page template).

It really sucks through the page builder to do so. My clients NEEDS THEM MEDIUM SIZE (small is too small, large is too large). I have tried

a) putting them in NONE alignment next to each other but they always have different sizes (specially the one in the middle since it has a bit more characters) b) putting three collumns in page section but they also have different sizes c) all different variations, setting right and left borders but nothing WORKED.

Is there a way around this? I will give you my credentials, anything. I need this done. 3 Medium SAME SIZE looking buttons with text in each.

This is my URL : http://fischerova-rehabilitace.cz/about/?lang=en

(it has currently Block buttons)

This easy thing should be feasible and I am sorry but I find setting of buttons really insufficient:(.

Besides this, I am very content and you do a great job but this is so aggravating.

Marek

Hi Marek,

If you are using the new Page builder Tatsu, or the last version of the old page builder, you will find a module named BUTTON GROUP. You can multiple buttons inside a button group and then use the alignment options in the Button group module to align all the buttons either to the left, center or right. Let me know if this helps or otherwise share your credentials to help@brandexponents.com and we will setup an example. Button Group is used extensively in our v27 demo – http://oshine.wpengine.com/v27/ to have multiple buttons aligned to the center.

Thanks, Swami

Hello & happy new year!

1.) I’m having trouble with creating Horizontal Carousel Slider like in V22. My problem is that I could make the settings and if the Pagestatus is “Draft” i could see the working slider in pages preview. But if I publish the page, it is automatically converted into a “Blog Archives” page instead of the working slider. I don’t know what to do. I hope you could help me with this strange problem.

2.) I tried to change the colours in a brighter style but I couldn’t find out where to change the “grey” colour of the text with the Slider Title… Or maybe there exists already any “bright” style for the Horizontal Carousel Slider (if yes, where?)

Thank you so much!

M.F.

Hi,

I am glad you resolved your first issue. With regard to the second question, the text you are referring to is the Title of the Portfolio and Category of the Portfolio. You can change it by changing the title.

Thanks, Swami

Hi,

I still know where to change the “content” of the title, but I want to change the colour and the font of the “preview”text which is shown in the portfolio carousel.

Thanks, Miriam

Hi Miriam,

There isn’t an option in the backend to edit the fonts for this preview text. However you can use the following custom css snippet to change it to your liking.

.attachment-details-custom-slider {
    background: YOUR CODE CODE HERE;
    color: YOUR COLOR CODE HERE;
    font-family: YOUR FONT HERE;
    font-size: YOUR FONT SIZE HERE;
}

Kindly paste the code in the custom css setting under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on. 

Thanks, Swami

Migrated to Oshin 5.0 incl. Tatsu as described (converted all items). Problem: I’m unable to edit the page. In Tatsu there are three buttons on the right: Home, Modules (a suitcase-icon) and Editor (a slider-icon).

In Home I’m able to select items on the site. But Modules and Editor can’t be started.

Convertet the complete domain two times – no difference. What can I do?

Hi,

Could you kindly share your wordpress admin url, ID and password so that we can investigate the issue. Another user had reported a similar issue and I think we have narrowed down the problem. It looks like some servers are stripping the trailing slash from the url, which is preventing our routers from working in the page builder which is a single page app. Let me check your site and see if its the same problem. We will have a solution soon.

Thanks, Swami

Thanks a lot for help. The site is running now.

I am glad we were able to assist :)

Keywords: Tatsu Page Builder, no blog post excerpts

Hello, everyone. I am using the new Tatsu Page Builder and spent about ten hours trying to modify it so that excerpts show up correctly with Tatsu. If I turned off BE Page Builder on the Blog Settings page, then the entire post shows up as the excerpt; and if I turn on BE Page Builder, then no excerpt appears for me. Perhaps I had some other setting wrong.

In any case, perhaps my eventual solution will help some others with the same problem: I installed and activated a plug-in called Advanced Excerpt 4.2.3, and all is now fine. Hope that is some help.

Hi,

You shouldn’t turn on the BE Page Builder while using Tatsu. To restrict the amount of the content you show in the Blog Archive page, please use the MORE TAG in the content editor / Tatsu. http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/read-more-link/

Anyways we are glad you found a plugin for your needs and I am sure others will find it useful.

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami

in the fixed height animated module it is very hard to near impossible change the enable overlay state in the module element. I managed to do this once but every time i try this since the tatsupagebuilder is stuck and i have to go back to the site, etc.

Kind regrads, René

Hi Rene,

This sounds unusual. Could you kindly share your wordpress admin url, ID and password to help@brandexponents.com and I will check the issue. In the meanwhile could you kindly ensure that you are using Oshine Modules plugin and Tatsu version 1.0.1 ?

Thanks, Swami

Hello, I use child theme. I want serve Google Fonts locally because of poor gtmetrix score. I have created a folder “fonts” in oshine_child and I have download there every fonts I need. I have also a font.css file, inside it I have put this code

@font-face { font-family: ‘Playfair Display’; font-weight: 400; font-style: normal; src: url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.eot’); src: url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.eot?#iefix’) format(‘embedded-opentype’), local(‘Playfair Display’), local(‘Playfair-Display-regular’), url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.woff2’) format(‘woff2’), url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.woff’) format(‘woff’), url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.ttf’) format(‘truetype’), url(‘fonts/Playfair-Display-regular/Playfair-Display-regular.svg#PlayfairDisplay’) format(‘svg’); }

How can tell to child theme to use my custom fonts??

Thank you

Already responded to your email with a detailed answer. Unfortunately this is not possible. I will recommend you to continue to load fonts from google servers as it faster and gives you the benefit of a cdn.

Thanks, Swami

Hello,

I love this product and I have very little trouble with it. However, after upgrading as it suggested, I am noticing one error that wasn’t there before.

On my iPhone, when I load the site, the homescreen seems fine at first, but if I scroll up with my finger, the page moves (it never did before), and the version of homepage I am using suddenly shows up.

How do I fix this?

Hi,

I am glad you like our product. Kindly share the link to your site so that we can investigate the issue. Also in which version of iOS did you test ?

Thanks, Swami

The website is http://robertbillings.net

Thank you for taking a look.

Hi,

Kindly edit your home page in the Tatsu Page Builder, edit the first section, and set its top and bottom padding to 0. If it doesn’t even have SECTION, then simply save the page builder once. That will resolve your issue.

Thanks, Swami

I’ve been hacked

Hi, since I’m configuring your oshine theme, I have had the suspicion my site was being hacked and since this morning my webhost removed my site because of this. Can you guarantee that all of your plugins are safe to use because before that I did not have the problem. Besides that I saw that the slider has an update available which I cannot install. How secure can that be?

Hi,

It is unfortunate that your site got hacked. Our themes & plugins are built to the highest standards and are reviewed thoroughly before being accepted in the marketplace. It is also reviewed everytime an update is made. Themes are run through Theme Check plugin during the review, which checks for all the best coding practices and our themes passes all the required checks. All outputted attributes in the markup are escaped to prevent XSS attacks. All ajax and rest api requests in our plugins are nonce validated to prevent unauthorized access. The slider plugins we have included with the theme are also the most popular ones in the code canyon marketplace and have also been reviewed. Instructions to update the premium plugins included with the theme are mentioned in our knowledgebase. I have sent a detailed response to your email about what all could cause security issues and how you can keep your site secure.

Thanks, Swami

Hey guys…

Did the update and everything seems to be working fine with the exception of the following things I can’t seem to figure out:

For reference, here is the backup of my site PRIOR to the update: http://ericrussellphotography.com/finalsite

Here is the updated site: http://ericrussellphotography.com/oshine/

1. Overlay Navigation: Seems like I’ve lost the nice roll in effect in the overlay navigation where there is a slight delay between each navigation item that occurs when you trigger the navigation. Any recommendations?

2. Parallax Section Background: For the life of me I cannot seem to get this to work. As I scroll you will see how the image scrolls past leaving gray space. It preview correct in Tatsu and saves fine, but then functions totally different when I preview the page:

http://ericrussellphotography.com/oshine/portfolio/ontario-design-company/

Thanks for the help guys.

Hi Eric,

We are glad the update went well for you. With regard to your two issues, I could replicate the menu issue in our test setups and we will fix the issue in our upcoming update. With regard to the parallax section, I couldn’t replicate it in my setup, however I believe it may be because of the content slider module you have there. I guess the height of the parallax section gets calculated before the content slider module loads. May I know why you have used a content slider module, given that you just have a single slide there ? You could simply have the image inside a text block and use padding for the section in order to create the necessary space and that should resolve the parallax problem for now. We will recreate the parallax setup with the content slider and if there is an issue we will fix that as well in our update.

Thanks, Swami

Hello Swami,

In the Gallery Settings of the old BE Page Builder, I was able to get exactly the effect that I wanted for a hover over image: A 35% opacity, black overlay. I did this by setting the Thumbnail Overlay Color to Black, turning off the checkbox that enables the Gradient Overlay, and setting the Thumbnail Overlay Opacity to 35, as shown here:

http://www.portmain.com/portfolio/sealaska-2016/

This no longer works in the Tatsu Page Builder. In this case, I set the Thumbnail Overlay Color to Black along with a 35% opacity (in the same color selection box) and I turned off the Gradient Overlay checkbox. But the result ignores the settings and uses the Oshin Color Scheme color for the overlay, as shown here:

http://www.pauldarosaphotography.com/portfolio/sealaska-2016/

I can enable the Gradient Overlay and set both the start and end colors to Black with 35% opacity, but this fails, too. The 35% black color appears, but it is still combined with the Oshin Color Scheme color.

I don’t want to change the Color Scheme color because that will change too many other things.

Can you provide any help? The difference that I see in the generated html page code is that the BE Page Builder has data-thumb-overlay-color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.35)” (in the portfolio div), whereas the new Tatsu Page Builder has data-thumb-overlay-color=””. It seems like the Tatsu does not set the data-thumb-overlay-color field.

Thank you.

Hi,

The hover color option not working with the Gallery module is an issue we are already aware of and we will be issuing a fix as an update on monday. We were supposed to release it on friday, but unfortunately it got delayed. Appreciate your patience.

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami

i want the hoovercolor of my menu items to stick when i click a menu item and navigate to another part of my site . It now only works like that with menu items that navigate to another part of a page. I saw a site where it worked like i described above but cannot find the way.

Kind regards, Rene

Hi Rene,

Kindly use the following custom css to highlight the current page in a single page version as well.

.single-page-version #navigation .current_page_item a {
    color: #dd9933;
}

Kindly paste the code in the custom css setting under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on. 

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami

i did as you adviced but it is still not working. Only two of the pages stay highlighted but the rest not.

Kind regards, René

Hi Rene,

I checked your site and you actually had the options panel cache turned on, which was why the css code wasn’t taking effect. Its working now. Please check.

Thanks, Swami

5.0.1 tatsu update. i want to create a new post with tatsu, but it says “unable to save!”. please help asap.

and concerning the blog right sidebar: - how to change font, font size and font color of widget title and content? - how to change the background color?

i added the following to the styles.css, but then you can’t click anmore: .blog #right-sidebar { font-family: “hans kendrick medium” !important; font-size: 14px !important; background: #f9f9f9 !important; }

Hi,

1. In the same Blog Settings section of the Options Panel, you can find a setting named “BLOG STYLE”, which needs to be set as Masonry.

2. You can try adding the follow attribute to the shortcode gutter_width = “40” and change the value there.

3. You don’t have to use css, kindly go to OSHINE OPTIONS -> TYPOGRAPHY SETTINGS -> CONTENT panel and set the font options for the Sidebar Widget Title and text there.

Thanks, Swami

Tatsu, unable to safe????? Whats wrong? I use the converter to convert all in Tatsu Editor.. I don´t know whats wrong?

Hi,

There was problem in version 1.0 in selective ngnix based php servers with older versions. Kindly update to Tatsu version 1.0.1 and then clear your browsers cache and try saving the page builder again. Clearing cache after updating to version 1.0.1, resolved the problem for a couple of others who had a similar issue. If the issue persists, please share your wordpress admin url, ID and password to help@brandexponents.com

Thanks, Swami

Hi Swami, I seem to have a problem that crept up lately. the Master slider that I created has huge amounts of padding around it and the Google fonts I chose aren’t showing up and there’s this weird sub menu that has appeared for some reason. I want the master slider with type to be full screen but can’t find the problem. you can have a look at https://www.thecellar.nl

Ok got it didn’t see the upgrade instructions.

Hy there. When I try to add a shortcode block: for example a sale_products code, the first row of products are unequal, like a down stairway. I think they are alignin to middle, but the second row looks okay. Any idea? Thanks

Hi,

Kindly share the link to your page where you have this problem and I will try to recreate this shortcode in our demo setups and check the issue. Its a woocommerce shortcode right ?

Thanks, Swami

Hy. yes it is a woocommerce shortcode. www.yczcreative.com

Hi,

This page doesn’t have the woocommerce shortcode. Could you please share your wordpress admin url, ID and password to help@brandexponents.com, so that we can add the shortcode and investigate ? Incase you copied the shortcode from woocommerce documentation, please ensure that the shortcode is not preformatted ( has ‘pre’ html tags around it ).

Thanks, Swami
