Hello! I bought a theme long time ago but I have just started working on it. I try to change the text on home page but it does not change it. I shows the standard text instead. Please, kindly tell what is this bug?

Hello, lately I get this strange texts on my pages (www.garageveltman.nl): Function create_function() is deprecated (carpress\inc\theme-widgets.php). Is there an easy fix for this? I tried updating the theme, but doesn’t do the trick… thanks!

Hi, I did not upgrade the PHP engine, it was running on php 7.2.10. I cloned the website and restored it on a php 5.3.29 engine. But it gives the same problem. Any suggestions? I never had trouble with it…

I now did a new clone and it works at php 5.3.29, so the problem must be in 7.2.10.

Thank you for reporting this finding. We’ll take a look at this issue and provide a fix via update if necessary.

Hi, I contacted you a year or so ago, and you said this theme was going to be supported for some time. I see it hasn’t been updated in a year. I understand it is working and may not need to be updated, but I am checking in for my client to see where things are still at.

Thank you for your time.

Hi. The theme is still supported, there just wasn’t need to be updated since CarPress is now older and already really stable theme. Take care!

How can I update this theme without losing the actual data in wordpress? I’ve seen that an update is available sincer 14.06.2017. Thank you!

Hi Proteus Team!

There is an issue with the newest version of WordPress 4.9.4 on my website www.bmcars.pl. After updating my slider images and Google Maps vanished from the home page. I tried putting new Google Maps API, but this didn’t solve the issue. There is probably some error with JavaScript

Currently, you won’t see the issue as I restore the site from a backup. Still, please write how to solve the issue.

PS. I couldn’t open a ticket on your official support forum. My purchase code didn’t work, even though it worked to register the account. I also tried to contact via live chat/email box, but I got no reply.

Does this theme come with the plugin most dealers use VIN DECODER?

Hi, no the plugin is not bundled with the theme. Take care!

Yeah.. There’s no way I could do $199… Good hustle though.

Hi. It is not just support it is also the time which goes in the maintenance of the older themes. Thanks for the notice but there is not much we can do about it. There will be always illegal copies of the themes online. Be careful with those since you never know what exactly will you get.

LoL What happened to the updates homie? February 2019? Seriously? You guys give up?

Hi There, we’ve not given up on the theme and the team is still working and supporting the theme. Kindly keep an eye on an update soon.

I had considered buying this theme but can you explain why it went from it being previously listed as $59 and has now jumped to $199? It’s even still listed in the Live Demo for $59 then when you go to buy it’s listed as $199. Just seems very expensive compared to other similar themes on themeforest.

Hi. CarPress is one of our older themes and our plan is to keep all our themes up to date so all our themes can be used for a long time. We also listened to our users and we added support back to our older themes. This is one of the main reasons for the price increase. If this is too much for you we also have newer Auto theme which is meant to be CarPress upgrade -> https://www.proteusthemes.com/wordpress-themes/auto/

Hi, I have issues with the theme now.

When i visit my website by mobile it shows a broken theme. But on laptop och desktop its normal.

need help please !

Hi,

Contact us on hi at proteusthemes dot com with your CarPress purchase code and we will take a look.

On single service pages the

is always what you name the Services parent page item. How can we have that be the name of the actual individual service instead? I’d rather the

tag for each service page be the name of each unique service instead of always being “Service”.

Hi, thank you very much for your comment, but as you were able to see upon purchase, we do not provide 1-on-1 support for this theme anymore. However, in our support portal you will be able to find an extensive help center and theme documentation. Thank you very much for understanding.

Hi ProteusThemes!

Hope you’re having a good week so far. Very nice theme :)

Curious question: Is your theme compatible with the Visual Composer? Also, with a Slider like the Revolution Slider or the Layer Slider?

Thank you, Christine :)

Hi Christine,

Thanks. We are having an awesome week. :)

You can use Visual Composer with our theme but we are not using it in any of our CarPress demo pages. Also, our widgets won’t work with it, since Visual Composer is working with shortcodes, so you would need native VC elements. We have our own slider in the theme but you can also use Slider revolution which is supported.

Take care!

Hello Proteus Team, I set up the automate update of theme in wordpress settings, but don’t work. What’s happen? thanks

Hi there, I’m thinking of updating my php version, now I have a 5.5.38 Does CarPress support php 7.0?

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes, of course. CarPress is working great with PHP 7.

Many thanks!

You are welcome!

Hi there, I can’t get the Revolution Slider to load and I’d love to be able to make use of the SLIDES feature that came with the theme. Right now all I can do is create slides and add an alias to a page, but that doesn’t do anything. How does the slider work?

Thanks, Blake

Hi. This is because in CarPress demo we don’t use Revolution Slider but its own theme slider. You can add it in the wp-admin -> slider with the slider page template. You can also read that in the documentation -> https://www.proteusthemes.com/docs/carpress/#slider

Take care!

Thank you so much for your help! I finally got the slider working. I know you guys don’t offer support, but I still really like this theme.

Have a great day :)

You are welcome. I am glad you solve the problem.

Take care!

Please help me… carpress shows me wrong date (on first page where open hours are selected it shows thursday – today is moday… how can I change this???

Hi, thank you very much for your comment, but as you were able to see upon purchase, we do not provide 1-on-1 support for this theme anymore. However, in our support portal you will be able to find an extensive help center and theme documentation. Thank you very much for understanding.

I suggest you check your WordPress time setting -> http://www.wpbeginner.com/beginners-guide/how-to-change-date-and-time-format-in-wordpress/

Hi there, please give me a refund for the Car Press theme so I can buy the updated Auto theme with support.

I just spent a few hours working and didn’t realize you don’t provide support for the Car Press theme.

Why are you even selling it without support? That doesn’t seem fair.

Thank you!

Hi,

If you really like the looks and functions of the CarPress theme I would suggest you to stay with it. Theme will still get all the updates and security fixes, only the support is not included. You can read more about that here -> https://www.proteusthemes.com/help/mean-theme-marked-unsupported-themeforest/

Take care!

Thanks for the quick reply! I’ll keep working with the theme. It’s really nice :)

Hi. Great. I am really happy that you like the theme. :)

This is one outstanding theme!

Thanks! I appreciate it.

I need to change the font color on the front page Contact Form 7 widget. http://truwheel.com/newsite How to do this?

I would not have purchased this theme if I knew it came without support. All my other themes from ThemeForest included support. It’s apparently impossible to get a refund. I CALL RIPOFF!

Hi,

I’m sorry, you feel this way, but it’s clearly stated above the purchase button on the ThemeForest item page, that we do not offer support for this theme.

We will still offer support for theme bugs and update the theme for any bugs that might occur in the future. You can read more about this in our support article: https://www.proteusthemes.com/help/mean-theme-marked-unsupported-themeforest/

Take care!

Hi,

We really don’t want unsatisfied clients, so I wonder if you took a look at the article above? Can I do anything to make it better for you? You might be entitled to refund. Get back to me via this form and we will solve your issue: https://www.proteusthemes.com/contact/

Hi. You wrote that theme support russian language but in theme headings and navbars used Dosis – this font without russian letters. Has this theme ability to change fonts in admin panel WP?

Hi,

For changing fonts you will need to use Easy Google Fonts which works great with our themes -> https://wordpress.org/plugins/easy-google-fonts/
