Hi and happy new year,

I’m testing the demo, how does the “All projects” part works? When I click on one of the thumbnails this closes the window and returns to the slider (not on the good slide), I thought that clicking I would go directly on the project selected ?

Hi there, which demo are you getting this error? It should scroll to the one clicked :)

Hi, I’m talking about this demo “http://werkstatt.fuelthemes.net/werkstatt-fullscreen/” : when I click on “All projects” then on “the ballon series” project, I’m not redirected on the correct slide.

Hi there, thanks, we ‘ll be looking into this and making an update!

Hi,

Just purchased your theme. It looks really good. Just didn’t like finding out embedded media in blogposts are not responsive and won’t adjust to the screen, Youtube videos and Tweets for example. Is there a way to fix this?

Hi there, please open a support ticket at http://fuelthemes.ticksy.com and share a sample url please.

Hello! I’m interested in buying this theme, but I have a question before it. Can I add elements from other pages such as “our team”, or “contact us with budget” at home page?

Yes you can :)

Hey guys, visually it’s really great theme, thumbs up! I would buy it right now, but i’m kind of afraid od bugs and mistakes that were mentioned by meanwhileonearth. Please, are you gonna do anything about it?

Thanks for your answer and a have nice day! Jan

Hi Jan, we constantly update our theme based on buyer feedback and add new demos! You can take a look at reviews :)

Hello, just purchased your theme, great stuff so far. I wanted to know how can I have full page width within the “Portfolio Background Width” like you have within the demo? For some reason, I am having side bars on each side.

Disregard this message. I figured it out. Thanks

Glad you solved it :)

Hello,

Nice theme. Do you offer users Adobe Typekit Fonts? Do you have license to use them in the source download package? Thank you.

Best regards

Hi etheme, since Typekit is a premium service, customers need their own Typekit membership.

Hello Fuelthemes

Can i take few layout from different demos to one website? If can could you tell me how? so that i dont have to make several changes and i could import the demo first? I thought when i buy this, I could do that but i’ve tried it, everytime I import the demo the preivous theme was disappear

The theme import does not actually deletes any pages, so any additional page being added can be found in Pages tab.

I don’t want to give a lower rating, because you guys do a great job.

But werkstatt has a lot of flaws and just poor features, such as:

1. Parallax images on mobile are stuttering, instead of moving smoothly.

2. All portfolio showcases don’t have double-tap on mobile, once you tap on a portfolio name it immediately opens linked page. That’s ugly.

3. Sounds load by default even when turned off. Typekit loads by default (we don’t need it).

4. Vendor.min.js is 150kb. This is insane. Follow best practices and give us an ability to load only features that we use to decrease a size of .js and .css.

5. Buttons are very cheap looking. Easing on buttons is just staight ugly.

6. Snap to raws option is awfully implemented. It’s literally impossible to scroll. If a row is more than 100vh it will always snap to the beginning of the row and you won’t be able to scroll to the content placed lower inside the row.

Also, it just looks ugly. Do a slide change on scroll action, will be 10x better. It will allow users to achieve the same thing Fullscreen Page template is required for now.

7. Pixel-imperfect “scroll to top” button looks ugly. Either make it pixel-perfect or change it to square form.

8. Menu hamburger icon and Close “X” icon are not in the same place on screen.

9. Header hover (from transparent to white) is blinky and give an impression of a cheap website.

10. Tab shortcode shows tab content only on scroll. i.e. when we click on tab 2, it’s empty until a scrol action is performed.

11. Autotype cannot be centered, have very, very, poor control settings, makig this feature barely usable.

12. Many shortcodes don’t have custom class/id field.

All of this is not some a matter of “design” tastes, it’s just bad implementation.

We understand that you tried to create an expensively looking theme, but expensive feel and look is achieved not by “fancy features”, it’s achieved by details. In your theme, details suffer tremendously.

Have a good holidays!:)

Hi there, please open a support ticket at http://fuelthemes.ticksy.com/

Hello. We don’t need any support:)

That’s fine. Looks like you need additional features added, support can help you add them.

Hi – Is it possible to add a filter for the blog page?

Sorry, that’s not possible at the moment.

Love the theme! I have the same question as @adrianlischer The “view project” button I want to say “learn more” Where to change this?

Hi there, please read Translation section of your documentation :)

thanks! Of course 5 stars. One more question. Is it possible to remove the permalink button from a portfolio slider (homepage) ?

Yes, please open a support ticket at http://fuelthemes.ticksy.com :)

Hello, I’d like to buy this theme but I’ve seen that on your fullscreen parallax demo there’s an error. When you scroll down images move way up and get totally displaced. This usually happens the first time you open the site, then they are displaced all the time. Could you tell me if this is a normal behaviour or is something you plan to solve? Thanks.

Hi there, I think that depends on the size of the browser and the image being used. I cannot replicate the issue using MacBook Pro. Could you share a screenshot of the error?

Yea, I think that can be remedied if you use a taller image.

Hi guys, great theme, awesome work ! Just tell me how to hide the cart on header? I don’t find on the settings:-/

Hi davco, cart is automatically hidden if you disable the WooCommerce plugin.

of course :-/ ! Thanks a lot

Cannot leave a ticket (unknown error occured). The background videos seem not to play or display on mobile Safari devices (iphone ect). Any ideas?

Could you please try again? There was an issue with Ticksy and it was fixed.

Hi—

your ticket support system is down. There are three things I need to know badly:

1. How do I change the social links at the bottom of the menu? 2. Can I get a line of custom code to either length or STOP the portfolio slider from sliding (AKA I only want to show ONE portfolio item and don’t want it to keep reloading) 3. How can I change the copy and link of the button in the portfolio slider. The “view project” button I want to say “learn more” and link to the About the Agency page.

I’ve read the documentation and I can’t figure it out.

Thank you very much!

Hi there, I can see others posting tickets. Could you please try again?

Hi, I keep getting an error preventing me from submitting a support ticket on your account. Error is ‘data:’ Could you please help me do this?

Hi there, could you try again? It could be that Envato API might be down when you tried.

Dear, i bought the theme. but i couldn’t install. I tried on WP, FTP and always show me a error. Can you help me? I try to open a ticket on you support page, but page didn’t load.

Could you please try again? I can see others posting their questions.

Hello!

Really like your theme. Great work on layouts etc.

I was about to buy it but I was seeing it loading slow. As observed by another buyer also, the theme loads really slow. I am sure you guys already know his problem. And you may already be working to have your theme speed optimized. And even if you don’t want to have it speed optimized out of the box, it still has to perform way better in terms of loading speeds.

https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwerkstatt.fuelthemes.net%2Fwerkstatt-agency%2F&tab=desktop

Please check the page load speed of this demo for example. 17 – is by no means acceptable on a 4g connection.

Even without any boost and cache, it should have been multiple times better.

As you know, a lot of the latest themes are already speed optimized.

If you can have this issue addressed, you have a buyer ready, and I am sure many more.

God Bless!

Our main demo with music and images load in 1.34secs and with images it’s 3.09secs. You can check this using Chrome Developer Tools > Network

ok, I will check. Thanks! I will come back if I decide to buy. God Bless!

Thanks, take care and happy new years :)

Hello guys, How are you?

I’ve just bought and made a website with the theme locally and uploaded it into the server yesterday.

On local, I had no big issues, but running it in GoDaddy right now I keep receiving the 503 errors. I called their support and they ran a lot of tests and came to me with the conclusion that the theme is causing the website to be that slow. With other themes installed the website speed increases and I dont get the error.

After that I tested the theme on https://testmysite.thinkwithgoogle.com/ and the theme do get poor scores in speed tests. :(

Well, can you guys please help? What can we do?

Thanks
