Great Theme !
One question:
When a post is set to “Gallery”, then in the Blog posts list, only posts with standard image are clickable with the Hover gradient, Post set as gallery are not Clickable.
Is it possible to change that ?
Thanks a lot.
Hello,
Gallery has it’s navigation arrows, and putting it into a link would prevent users from scrolling through gallery. You can still do this if you wish, but without hover effect which is reserved for lightbox functionality.
To link gallery to post, you should edit the appropriate template file (loop_item-LAYOUT.php, where LAYOUT is your chosen blog list layout).
In the template file, find the line:
echo do_shortcode( $gallery );
Change it into this:
echo '<a href="' . get_the_permalink() . '">' . do_shortcode( $gallery ) . '</a>';
Kind Regards
Yes, it is what I realized when I did exaclty what you told me to do.
The best would be to have the gallery arrows on the hover link zone. But probably real difficult to do.
Never mind.
Thank you very much for your help.
Hi there, love your Theme. Have to short questions maybe you can help me.
1. Where can i remove the category name and text (Test / Category) on the site domain.xx/category/test/ that is half over the tax image? i was searching in the php files but could not find it.
2. is there a simple way to get a full wide header image like on other themes?
thanks a lot.
Hello,
[1] That part is located in the cover.php file. You can easily hide it via CSS with this code:
.content-wrapper__inside.archive .korra-cover h1,
.content-wrapper__inside.archive .korra-cover .description-heading--small {
display: none;
}
[2] The cover image is already fullwidth, it just has the white padding borders around. You can remove the paddings like this:
.korra-cover .korra-fullwidth {
padding: 0;
}
Kind Regards
Hello! I love this theme but before purchasing I need to know if it’s possible to have another menu also over the main title and if it’s possible to filter posts by different authors. Thanks!
Hello,
[1] There is only one menu area in the theme. Additional would have to be manually included/coded.
[2] Currently, blog posts can’t be filtered by the authors, though this is a nice idea and we will add it to our task list. Can’t say for sure when it will be done, but it should be included in the next release.
Kind Regards
thanks! is there a way maybe to test before purchasing?
Hello,
Outside of our demo and documentation, there is no way to test the installed theme.
Kind Regards
Hello, I read the entire documentation but still wasn’t able to find. How do I get the side block on the blog like it is in the demo (with a short about section)? Thank you.
Hello,
Sorry for a bit delayed answer, as we were out of the offices these couple of days.
Sideblock container is added via the Sideblock button in the main content editor( https://cl.ly/28421c2m0u2o ).
If you wish to have homepage with sideblocks, you have to create it as a static page, since the Latest Posts homepage does not have support custom content ( http://library.korra.io/whyte/documentation/#custom-homepage-setup ).
Kind Regards
Hello, is it possible to have the side bar on the post pages or only as full-width?
Hello,
Theme does not have standard sidebar at all, so only full-width.
Kind Regards
Hi, I’ve a problem with a “Quote” post format. There are strange symbols superimposed on the box of the preview article. How can I delete them?
Hello,
Do you use the latest version of the theme ( 1.4.2 )?
This issue happened in certain scenarios, but we have updated the encoding of the ‘quote’ symbol so the bug should be fixed in the newer versions of the theme.
Could you, please, update the theme and let us know if that solved the issue?
Cheers
How or where do I download the update?
You can download the latest theme version from the ‘Downloads’ tab of you ThemeForest page.
For help updating the theme on your WordPress installation, please check this part of the docs: http://library.korra.io/whyte/documentation/#theme-update
Hello, could you help me? I can not set the sidebar on the blog, same on the demo site

Hello,
Could you send us the screenshot from the Demo that you try to achieve?
Whyte theme does not have standard sidebars, but if you wish to use theme’s Sideblock feature – see this part of the documentation http://library.korra.io/whyte/documentation/#sideblock-fullwidth .
Kind Regards

Hello you I’m sorry but I am not able to find where to download the Plugin “Whyte Shortcodes Plugin” Can you help me please? thank you
Hello,
That plugin is bundled within the theme and can be automatically installed from the pop-up message when you activate the theme.
Cheers
I want to buy your theme if you can install it for me, exactly as your demo here. Is that OK?
Hello romanzy,
Theme comes with default style settings same as on the demo. Additionally, there is the demo-content ready to be imported if you wish to do so.
We are not offering installation services, but the process is very straightforward and well documented – you will have no troubles setting everything up.
Kind Regards
So, you do NOT want to install it, even not if I buy 2 licenses? The basic WP install is ready.
I have bought the theme already and I have sent an email to the above-mentioned address. Thank you in advance for your help.
Hello, is there any way at all I can offset the post count using blog shortcodes or some workaround? What I want to do is use full width banners between my post lists of the same category (actually it’s the latest posts list). Many thanks in advance!
Hello,
Right now, there is no ‘offset’ setting for custom blogs. They wouldn’t work for ‘Latest Posts’ view anyway, as that is native WP blog list.
You could use the same approach that has been used to display Ads in the blog. Open ‘loop.php’ and see how ads are included into the loop. Include your custom content (or maybe use the Ads widget to display it) in the similar way.
If this approach doesn’t work for you, let us know. We will look into introducing ‘offset’ setting for our custom blogs, so you’ll be able to create a static homepage with custom blogs.
Cheers
Congrats on an absolutely fantastic theme! It’s very easy to make everything look good, no matter what you do and with little to no efford. Amazing! However… (sorry, hehe) ...I am looking to find the templates for the example pages you are using in the live preview, such as the homepages and different post variations. As far as I can see they are not in the documentation or am I overlooking these? Any help pointing them out would be appreciated. Many thanks!
Hey flavius7,
There are no specific templates for the pages or posts. Everything is created as page/post content using the custom elements and layout system.
Probably the most unique aspect of the theme is exactly the layout system – if you need help figuring out how it works check this part of the docs: http://library.korra.io/whyte/documentation/#sideblock-fullwidth .
If you have a specific page/post you wish to recreate, please let us know, we’ll guide you to it.
Cheers
Hi,
I’ve got the Blog Caroussel in the header. It displays the most recent 5 blogposts. Below that I want to load the following blogpost, but I want to skip the first 5 (because they’re shown in the Blog Caroussel in the header).
I looked up in de Wordpress documentation that this shortcode should work: offset The number of posts to pass over Default: 0 Example: [display-posts offset=”3”]
But it doesn’t for this theme.
Can you help me what to do to skip the first 5 posts. This is my code below.
[korra_blog posts=”8” display-posts offset=”5” style=”list_unboxed” sort_by=”date” sort_order=”DESC” link_text=”all latest stories” ads=”0” featured_exclude=”on”]
Thank you.
Hello,
Blog shortcode can omit only featured posts configured in the Customizer > Blog Posts & Layouts > Featured Posts. Posts displayed through a widget can’t be easily detected and skipped, nor can the shortcode accept the setting to skip a fixed number of posts. featured_exclude=”on” in the shortcode (also can be checked in the popup generator) will make so that blog skips featured posts configured in the Customizer.
If you configure the Featured Posts in the Customizer to have no tag (default) it will go for the latest posts. Set count to be same as in your widget. This should make so that when you check ‘Exclude Featured posts’ in your [korra_blog] shortcode the correct posts get omitted.
Kind Regards
Thank you so much for the great recent update (1.4.1) – Videos can now be displayed as a post cover! However, I would like to suggest an option that says: “use first video in post as cover (deactivates video embed of the first video (cover) inside post). Otherwise you have the video twice inside an article.
Hello,
That’s exactly how it works now. We’ve just tested it, and embedded video does not appear duplicated in the content, it is extracted.
I see that your ‘Isle of men’ post indeed does have a duplicated video – can you edit it and check for any reason for this? Also, make sure to ‘Update’ it, maybe for some reason it needs to be updated.
If you don’t find a reason for the duplicated video, please contact us again directly to support email so we can jump into the admin and take a look.
Cheers
HI! I love the whole theme and layout! I was able to install it, but have some issues with uploading a demo content. I tried to follow your steps but after importing xml file, no new content was created and I’m left with sample page only. Could you please help?
Hello,
Do you get any response from the WordPress when you try to upload demo content?
Generally, uploading can take 10+ min, unless you uncheck the images and media upload, in which case it should be much faster.
Kind Regards
Hi, I got this:
Failed to import Media “Project: Little Dudes” Failed to import Media “Project: Little Dudes” Failed to import Media “Project: Little Dudes” Failed to import Media “whyte_post27_08” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_01” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_02” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_03” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_04” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_05” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_06” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_07” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_08” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_09” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_10” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_11” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_12” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_13” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_14” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_14” Failed to import Media “whyte_post28_15” Failed to import Media “flowers-1209948” Failed to import Media “author2” Failed to import Media “whyte_cover_about1” Failed to import Media “whyte_cover_about2” Failed to import Media “whyte_cover_about3” Failed to import Media “whyte_cover_about4” Failed to import Media “whyte_cover_about5”
..
For some reason (probably server file permissions), importing of the images fails. That shouldn’t affect the rest of the content. If it does, simply uncheck the ‘import media’ option when starting the import.
I tried the same thing again with unchecked media and nothing was imported, even after 10 mins. I still have one sample post only and 5 pages in total. What else I can do?
Hmm, can you create an admin account for us, and send us the access directly via the support tab? We will jump in to see what’s going on.
Kind Regards
Hi, I sent credentials your way.
Hi, I’d like to know several things: 1. your theme can become multilingual? 2. I have no skills or will to edit wp site for too long, is your theme easily customizable without coding? 3. Can the shop be affiliate (directly redirect to another sites)? 4. Can the main home slider redirect to landing page for a signup? 5. I have already some info on the site, will it disappear or it will stay? (Especially blog posts, comments). Thank you. Aida.
Hello,
1. Yes, theme is translation and multi-lingual ready. We fully support WPML plugin – the best solution for multi-lingual websites.
2. Yes, theme is easily customizable through the WordPress Live Customizer. Using theme’s features is rather easy and there’s no need for any coding.
3. If you ask can you link to the third-party websites, of course. Some of our customers have been even using widgets/ads from third-party shopping websites. Don’t remember what shop exactly was in question, but it worked very nicely.
4. There are a couple of different styles possible for the Home Slider. Depending on the exact style, you will be able to either directly insert your custom link, or you would need to create a ‘Redirection rule’ which would redirect your certain links to the third-party. In any way it shouldn’t be hard to do.
5. All your current content will be intact and displayed correctly. The only trouble would be if you have used Visual Composer or some kind of page builder to build your posts – in that case your content is locked to that particular theme.
Kind Regards
Hey there,
Can you contact us via the Support tab and share the credentials for accessing the website?
Cheers
Side question: is there a possibility to deactivate the color overlay of pictures/gradient effect in the entire theme for pictures?
Sure, just paste this into the Customizer > Additional CSS:
.korra-media-gradient-hover .korra-media-gradient-hover__hover,
.korra-media-gradient-hover .korra-x {
display: none;
}
Cheers
Hi,
I really love this theme!
I already read the documentation but I still have a few questions.
1. How can I set up the interview post on top of the page like in the demo?
2.How to set up the sideblock categories like in the demo?
3. I made a static page with the slider on top. But if I open another page or post, the slider also appears. I only want it on the homepage and not on the post page or any other page.
Thank you in advance!
Kind regards Jill
Hi Jill,
1. We have answered this question in the email respond, based on the screenshot you provided.
2. Sideblock categories are simply ‘Rich Title’ elements within the Sideblock. This is the content for the first part of our Category Homepage, you can paste it in your page using the Textual editor, then switch back to Visual and see the exact elements used:
<div class="korra-sideblock korra-sideblock--no-border"> [korra_rich_title title="Creative" tag="h3" description="personal project & portfolio based posts" image="http://demo.korra.io/whyte/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/whyte_home2_covercreative1.jpg"] </div> [korra_custom_banner title="Custom Banner" description="Break your content with this useful custom element while promoting posts, pages and other links you find important." image="http://demo.korra.io/whyte/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/whyte_post28.jpg" height="600" link_text="Go to the page" link_url="http://demo.korra.io/whyte/2017/03/16/magazine-post/" link_target="on"] [korra_blog posts="4" style="gallery" category="creative" sort_by="date" sort_order="DESC" link_text="all creative posts" link_url="http://demo.korra.io/whyte/category/creative/" ads="0"] <div class="korra-contentwidth"> [korra_ad_widget type="wide"] </div>
3. You have probably created the Featured Banners widget, since that is the only element that would automatically be displayed everywhere. In order to choose on what pages is certain widget displayed/hidden, we recommend installing the Jetpack plugin, and enabling the Widget Visibility module. Every widget will have additional setting at the bottom where you can set your custom rules. Simply set the rule so that your widget is displayed only on your homepage.
Kind Regards
Thanks!
I have some last questions.
I have a static page and I used the ‘blog’ element. But I don’t know wich ‘More Button URL’ I have to use for my latest posts. For categories it’s simple but I really don’t know wich to use for my latest posts?
I also wanted my footer widget text in white. I already installed the WP-less plugin. Is it possible using white text?
Sorry for all my questions!
Kind regards Jill
Hi Jill,
Do you have a Latest Posts page? It is usually your homepage, but if you have set your FrontPage to display static page, then you should configure the Latest Posts page do be displayed on some page as well. You need empty static page and just set the options in the WP-Admin > Settings > Reading. Under ‘Front Page displays’ you can set everything.
You do not need WP-Less plugin for that. If you have dark footer background, simply check the ‘Footer is dark’ setting in the Customizer > Style > Backgrounds. This will change all your text into a contrasting color.
Kind Regards
Thank you so much for the support!
My website is how it has to be. There are only some gaps between the different categories (sideblock & list posts lay-out) especially on my smartphone. Is there something I can do?
Kind regards
Do you have a link where we can see the exact issue?
Hi,
You have a lot of empty paragraphs added in the content, probably from ENTER break-rows. Simply remove them.
If you need to clear the floats of the content between different sections you can use the ‘Border to unstick sideblock’ element in the ‘Sideblock’ dropdown toolbar.
Kind Regards
Is it possible to display the ad widgets in the blogposts as well? For example below the content but above the author info box?
Hello,
Yes, you could easily customize the template files to include the Ad widget area where you need it. For the example from your question, you would need to do this:
1. Copy the single.php file from main theme into your child-theme folder. This will keep your changes from being overwritten on the theme update.
2. Edit the single.php file in your child-theme and paste the following code where you wish Ads to appear (before the author box section, you’ll locate it easily):
<?php
if( is_active_sidebar("widget-area-ad-wide}") ){
dynamic_sidebar("widget-area-ad-wide}");
}
?>
Kind Regards
Thanks so much! Solved You should embed that option in a further release in the theme options panel!
