Hi, Can I change the link of the logo in header?

Hi,

The theme retrieves the home URL of the current site for the link of the logo. You can change the URL in Settings -> General -> Site Address (URL).

However, if you’d like to change the link to different URL from the Site Address (URL), you can add custom filter below to Theme Functions (functions.php) in your child theme:


function vela_get_home_url( $url ){
    $url = 'http://YOUR_LINK';
    return $url;
}
add_filter('vela_home_url', 'vela_get_home_url');

Hello – how do I change the ‘bar’ that appears with the heading copy? It looks like there are a few options available (a bar w a diamond, bar w half diamond)

Thank you?

When you edit the Vela:Heading, you will see an option called “Separator Style”, choose “1” for a half diamond or “2” for a diamond bar.

Hello – I’m unable to modify the icon that appears in Google maps at the bottom of the contact page.. please help :)

You can edit it in your Contact page. You can find the Vela : Google Maps when edit your Contact Us page with Backend Editor, change the Address and move the pin to your location on the map. You can also choose new icon for the marker in the Icon option at the bottom of the map settings.

Hello – I need support, please…

My phone number and email address don’t appear in the header.. how can I get this to work?

Thanks!

Hello,

To display the phone number and email address, you should choose the header layout 2, 4 or 7 that have the header top bar menu.

You can add phone number and email address in the Header Top Bar menu in Appearance -> Menus. If you have imported demo content Vela 1 to 4, you will see the Header Top Bar menu there so you can edit it to change the phone number and contact info.

If it doesn’t exist, you can create a new menu and set it as the Top Bar Navigation. And then add new menu item from Custom Links type, set the URL to #, and put your phone number to the Link Text field. Also, add a new one for your email address.

Hi there

I have a question

I am trying to load up some maps using your maps widget for quartz composer, but I cannot get them to appear.

I have been trying uploading one of your templates, and it the maps do not appear with your set up either.

Any help?

Many thanks

Please contact us from the account that purchased this theme to make sure you’re currently in the correct product page that corresponds to what you have purchased.

When you create a new page, it automatically adds the URL/title to the footer (on all pages). Please, could you tell me how/where to change the settings and remove those pages?

I’ve never seen this issue before. Normally it doesn’t add the URL/title to the footer when you create a new page. If you have any other plugins try to deactivate them to see if it works. If it doesn’t work, please PM me your site URL: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

I found the issue, it was in the settings

Hi!

I’m interested in purchasing this theme, but I would like to know:

- How many icons does it include and if there’s a way to see them. - I guess all Wordpress themes are customizable from their core (html and layout), but I want to make sure this is possible with this one.

Thank you for your interest in our theme.

1. This theme includes 5 icon sets, Font Awesome: http://fontawesome.io/icons/ , Open Iconic: https://useiconic.com/open/, Typicons: http://www.typicons.com/, Entypo: http://www.entypo.com/, Linecons: https://designmodo.com/linecons-free/

2. Yes, you can edit the template file in your child theme. However, we would recommend you to customize via CSS and Theme Options panel because some template files do not support child theme.

Also, if you’d like you can take a look at our new theme called Aoraki ( https://themeforest.net/item/aoraki-multiconcept-business-wordpress-theme/19652714 ) that is newer and it allows you to customize more than the Vela. It also comes with more demos and more features. As you know when we’re talking about web technology, newer is better :)

hi, im getting a different contact form on my modern template than the modern template demo. mine is very narrow and just says ‘send’ compared to the larger one in your template that says ’ send your message’ how do i get the contact form from your template working? thanks!

Hi,

If you import demo content, you will have 3 contact forms. We’re using the Contact Form 1 on the Contact Us page.

Please make sure you have selected the Contact Form 1 too.

Anyway, if it doesn’t work, you can edit the contact form as below:

1. Go to Contact section on your WordPress admin to edit your contact form.

2. Replace the whole code in the Form tab with the new one below:


<div class="col-sm-6">
<p>[text* your-firstname placeholder "FIRSTNAME *"]</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<p>[text* your-lastname placeholder "LASTNAME *"]</p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<p>[email* your-email placeholder "E-MAIL *"] </p>
</div>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<p>[tel your-tel placeholder "PHONE"]</p>
</div>
<div class="col-xs-12">
<p>[textarea your-message placeholder "MESSAGE"]</p>
<p><input type="submit" value="Send Your Message" class="full" /></p>
</div>

hey on the modern theme, the back end editor is all bunched up and going outside the margins, do you know what’s causing this?

If you have other plugins installed, try to deactivate them to see if it works.

Hi there Wyde! Hope you are well!! When I paste the link to my website on Facebook it doesn’t show a thumbnail. Any idea if there is something I can do to change that? Thanks for your feedback.

Hello! Thanks for the reply. I was hoping not having to use another plugin.. but I have installed it after all and it works. Thanks a million! Have a super awesome weekend!

Hi,

My freelance website developer bought this theme for me, website www.raffles.com.hk.

I cannot contact him now so may I know if I can change the font on the theme because I cannot find the option to change it.

Hi,

You can change the font of some parts on your website in Theme Options -> Typography. However, those options won’t affect the font for some elements and some parts, you will need to add custom CSS to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to work around this.

Hi there, I’m using Vela on a “One Page Business” more, but I want to add Blog menu on top (primary menu) and when users click on it, it get open in new page/tab, at the moment when I add Blog on my menu however I chose “Open link in a new tab” but still it will add whole blog page under my last section on main page (home), can you please advise how can I have Blog on new page.

Hi there,

All pages from the top level of the primary menu will be loaded on your frontpage (home) automatically.

There are 2 ways to work around this:

1. Add a Custom Links type instead, when you add a menu item select Custom Links menu, put the link of the Blog page to the URL field and put the page title to the Text field.

2. Add your Blog page to the sub menu instead.

thanks a million , it was a very cleaver solution and it worked for me.

My pleasure! Thank you :)

Wyde is there a way to remove logo placeholder from theme ? I would like to use template with menu on the middle but no logo at all .. when no logo uploaded I’m still getting space for logo above menu

it’s happens only with Layout 3,4, and 5

not sure . .but looks like a bug .. when I revert to version 1.6.0 there is no issues with that

Thank you for reporting this issue, it will be fixed in the next update!

Hi Support,

Is there any way to move the Logo on the header on pages? or move the title little down? http://7b5.efe.myftpupload.com/wheels/lux-hd-1-2/

Also, is it possible to create a portfolio with an external page? I’d like to create a page that has Pictures of the wheels but when the user click it, it will take them to page that I have created.

Any help is appreciated.

Thank you!

1. When you enable Transparent Header, the logo on the header overlays on the page title. You have to disable it in Theme Options -> Header -> Transparent Header so the logo and menu will be at the top of the title as you can see on our demo: http://wydethemes.com/vela4/page-not-found

2. I’m sorry but the portfolio post always brings you to the portfolio single page to show the details, you couldn’t set custom link or external link for the portfolio. I would recommend you to add the pictures of the wheels and any content into the portfolio post instead. Actually you can build the portfolio post by using Visual Composer like you did on the page.

Go to Visual Composer -> Role Manager, choose Custom for Post types and select “portfolio”, you can also select “post” to enable it on blog post, see this video: https://vc.wpbakery.com/video-academy/control-user-group-access-visual-composer-wordpress/

Hi, I have 5 testimonials. Out of 5 testimonial I want 1 testimonial in one page and 1 testimonial in another page. The problem is, in both pages I can see only the latest testimonial. How can I fix this issue?

Thank you in advance.

Please contact us from the account that purchased this theme to make sure you’re currently in the correct product page that corresponds to what you have purchased.

What is the featured header font in the Vela Theme? I would like to use it in my Overlap Theme

It’s called “Oswald”, you can find it in the Google Fonts list.

can you make a video corousel?

You can use the Slider Revolution to build the video carousel and add it into any sections on the page or post by using Visual Composer page builder. Here’s the step by step guide: https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/video-layers/?tab=html5video

Is it possible to apply background “zoom effect” (the same as in Overlap 4 Theme – http://wydethemes.com/overlap/overlap4/) to Vela 5 Theme, i.e. to put a photo which will automatically zoom in/out instead of a video? Thank you.

Of course, it’s an effect of the Slider Revolution. You can create new slider with that effect and display at the top of the page instead of the video slider.

Hi Wyde,

Hope you are keeping well.

I finally have my main page up and running. It looks very nice but I have one question to raise:

Is there a chance that you could include a portfolio page layout option (gallery with masonry thumbnails) in addition to the three existing ones (single page, slider, gallery with square thumbnails). I use each portfolio item as a portfolio category and when clicked it opens the entire gallery on the portfolio item page. The square thumbnails crop the images so I can’t use that.

At the moment I am using the single page / medium page layout option and use the standard jetpack/wordpress gallery in the text area to create a work-around. However, it’s not loading the galleries correctly first time (only if you reload the page once you are on a portfolio item page) which is quite distracting and then also doesn’t load the images into a lightbox on click but in a separate page.

www.nathalieboucry.com http://www.nathalieboucry.com/portfolio-item/events/

Any hope for me there?

Thanks for your input and have an awesome day!

Seems like the Jetpack gallery using JavaScript to create a masonry layout. Unfortunately, when you’re using AJAX Page, it won’t load that script correctly. If you have the third party plugins installed or have other scripts working on your website, you should disable AJAX Page Transitions in Theme Options -> Page -> Page Options, or add the URL of that page to exclude it from the AJAX Page.

Hi Wyde! I have to give it to you: you never fail to offer a solution to whatever problem I throw your way. Thank you. Yet again you solved my issue. I have added the URL’s to the excluded pages and now it runs nicely.

Thank you :) It’s my pleasure.

Hi, I have some before purchase questions: I really like the modern version for making a 1-pager website. But If I use the moder version, can I have the menu above the main top picture? can the other sections also be triangular like the first section? And can the header picture also be triangular? Thank you for your response. :)

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in our theme!

Of course you can place the menu at the top of the page above the main picture (slider). Also, you can add a triangular shape overlays any sections on the page including the header picture.

Just so you know, if you like the triangular shape in our theme. We would recommend one more theme that comes with this shape too, it’s our latest theme called “GoGreen”: https://themeforest.net/item/gogreen-organic-food-farm-market-business-wordpress-theme/16966736

GoGreen comes with more shapes of the section separator and more features than the Vela. It has been created by following the latest WordPress standards. Built with the new version of Wyde Core plugin and all bundled plugins that come with more custom content elements and features. I have to say that the whole codes and structures of GoGreen are better than the Vela. All issues found in Vela have been fixed and improved in GoGreen. Of course it comes with almost of features of the Vela so you can use this theme to build your website like Vela as well as all of our recent themes.

Cheers!
