Hi! Is there a way to collapse menu categories on mobile? My client’s menu is very long, and I need a way to shorten the layout on mobile.
Somebody else helped me with this.. please disregard the question.
Hi Gerda – did you receive my email last week? Just need your advice on switching out the menu with an jpeg. Thanks 
Hi Hayley! Email sent! 
I getting problems with the mobile version: I can’t browse the pages in the menu. Why? Can you please suggest me where are the settings for the browse on mobile? Thanks
Hey there!
Yes I’m sorry there was bug in the theme that I fixed in the latest update! So you can either update the theme to the latest version 1.06 (here is the changelog http://www.files.red-sun-design.com/spoon/readme/readme.html#filesinfo_help ) or if you don’t want to update right now, you can make the mobile menu appear if you rename the menu to “main menu”. So simply go to Appearance > Menus and in the field Menu Name enter “main menu”.
Cheers!
Thanks for the good new but i didn’t find the info in the document linked. Please can you help me to get the update sending a link?
If you download the theme here: https://themeforest.net/downloads , you will automatically get the newest version.
I just got the newest version and now the menu is gone away! there isn’t!
Please go to Appearance > Menus and make sure the “Display location: SPOON Main Menu” checkbox is checked.
Hi! Love the theme, it’s very nice!
Only have the following issue, i can’t Save Menu Categories when i change something like a border for example.
I can click the “update” button in the bottom but it does nothing, do you know why maybe?
Many thanks!
Hey there! Thanks for purchasing Spoon, I’m glad to hear you like the theme! Would you please get in touch via the support tab and send me your link and login info please so I can take a look at the problem? Thank you!
Hi, I sent you an email as well- I am having issues sorting my sections. I followed your documentation and nothing is happening. Could I get some help on this? 
Hey there! I just replied to your email. Cheers!
Love the look of the your theme. Already use your other design on another restaurant site. Looking to buy 2 licences this time for planned builds. I’ve been caught out before with poorly coded themes so always check the page speed of the demo. This one only scored 40/100 for mobile and 46/100 for desktop. Why did you not optimise the demo? Optimise images, Minify code, browser caching, remove render blocking javascript & CSS.
Hey there!
great to hear you are already using another one of my themes and that you are interested in purchasing Spoon 
You are right, since a lot of potential customers seem to look at the Google Page speed numbers, I should probably improve that number (and I will probably do so, soon).
But please know that this is nothing that actually can be done within the theme files. I can’t reduce image sizes within the theme files or minify CSS/JS/HTML. If I would minify those files, customers wouldn’t be able to modify the theme files to their needs anymore.
So even if you see a theme on ThemeForest that has a perfect Google Page Speed Score, it doesn’t mean that you will have the same score automatically on your site as well. You would have to decrease image sizes in Photoshop before uploading and install and configure plugins like Autoptimze ( https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/ ) and WP Super Cache ( https://de.wordpress.org/plugins/wp-super-cache/ ).
The one thing I see that I can actually improve within the theme file is that one render blocking CSS file and I will do that in the next theme update!
Let me know if you have any more questions!
Hello! Thanks for your first reply to me about the mobile hamburger menu.
I love the theme, but would like to make adjustments for mobile: 1. How do I hide Sections or Content Boxes for mobile on the Front Page? 2. Within the Header, I’d like to hide the Top Bar (address, link to google maps, phone number, etc.) 3. I know hiding particular content when the site detects mobile can be achieved by defining a class within a section and then adding custom CSS to @media screen, which I also know classes can be applied in plugins such as Visual Composer. I saw that you said Visual Composer is compatible with Spoon, but would I need to basically start over from the beginning and rebuild? 4. Lastly (not mobile related), when you begin scrolling and the header is active as “Sticky” at the top of the page, is it possible to have the site name/Logo Text swap out for a logo on the sticky navigation bar?
MANY Thanks! Three Dog Ink
...this one is probably easier: change the background color of the Menu pages?
AND, sorry,,,how can I swap out a slider on desktop for a different slider for mobile?
UPDATE: Really, the only section I want to hide for mobile is “SECTION icon boxes.” Also, how can I change the background color of the Menu page (menu with tabs page)? I also have another page using the menu template I’d like to change the background color for. If you can help me with those few things specifically I would be oh so grateful!
Hey there!
1. Change background color of menu with tabs page:
Simply find the page ID ( https://www.ostraining.com/blog/wordpress/how-to-find-the-page-id-in-wordpress/ ) and then use the following CSS code and replace 123 with your Page ID and #222 with the color you wish to use. (You can put the code into Appearance > Theme Options > General > Custom CSS):
body.page-id-123 {
background-color: #222;
}
2. Hiding a section on mobile:
Each section already has it’s own ID (which is “section-” plus the page ID, so for example #section-123)
So again you would have to find the page ID and then add for example the following code in order to hide that section on devices with a screen width of 767 and below. Add the code again into the Custom CSS field:
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
#section-123 {
display: none;
}
}
3. Hide top bar on mobile:
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
#topinfo {
display: none;
}
}
4. Different slider on mobile:
You would have to create 2 slider sections below each other with both the desktop and mobile slider. Then hide 1 slider section on mobile and one on none-mobile, for example:
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
#section-123 {
display: none;
}
#section-456 {
display: block;
}
}
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
#section-123 {
display: block;
}
#section-456 {
display: none;
}
}
Hope this helps!
Hi Gerda – I’m getting thousands of JS errors on my page, due to the ease in animation script? Can you take a look please? Also, if you get a chance to look at my emails too please – thanks so much!
Hi Hayley! This seems to be caused by the booking code you are using. I sent you an email with details and answered your other questions.
Hi, thanks for the theme – beautiful job
I was just wondering how I can make several gallery pages (each single page would have one assigned gallery and not one page all te galleries). Thank you very much!
Hey there! I’m glad to hear you like the theme
I just replied to your email.
Hey hey I’m having issues with the column shortcode (does not align properly) as well as with scripts. Have messaged author, anyone knows how long till they reply?
Hey Maria! I just replied to your email.
Does this have a page builder?
Hey there! No the theme does not come with a page builder. It is built via custom post types and custom fields. Here is a link to the documentation so you can see how to work with the theme: http://www.files.red-sun-design.com/spoon/readme/readme.html#about_help
Cheers!
Am I able to add a full page slider a bit further down the homepage, to act as a gallery and if so, what settings do I use (I assume I’d use the Revolution Slider as the slider)
Also – don’t know if you saw my comment above – if I make the changes you gave me to the main theme, will they be overwritten with every update?
Thanks!
Yes, you can create multiple slider sections on the front page using the slider section layout and Revolution Slider.
I am trying to modify the page.. but when i am trying to open page. It seems within the page nothing appeared
Hey there! I just replied to your email.
I have contacted the author but also posting here we have got this error on the theme and can not get into the site now. Can someone help?

Hey there! I replied to your email.
Hello, Attractive theme! Only problem is that the top navigation bar disappears on mobile. Let me know if there’s a fix! Thanks.
Hey there, I’m glad you like the theme!
Yes I’m sorry there is a little bug in the theme that I’m gonna fix in the next update! Right now you can make the mobile menu appear if you rename the menu to “main menu”. So simply go to Appearance > Menus and in the field Menu Name enter “main menu”.
Cheers!
Hi there – I’d like to change the H1 tags on the homepage, to H3 please for SEO purposes… Could you let me know how to do this please?
Also I dropped you an email about something else earlier – not sure what the best way of contact is?
Thanks so much! 
Hey there!
Open the file page-templates/template-frontpage.php and in line 107 and 109 change h1 to h3.
(If you are looking for an easy way to make customizations in the theme files from within the WordPress admin area, I can recommend the “WPide” plugin. http://wordpress.org/plugins/wpide/ )
Yes I also got your email yesterday and just replied to it.
Cheers!
Great thanks! I’m assuming these won’t be overwritten every time I update?
All changes that you make directly in the theme files will be overriten when you update the theme.
If you want to keep your changes when updating the theme, I recommend making those changes in a child theme: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes A child theme is already included in the download files of the theme.
Hi – I’m already using the child theme, I added the folders and custom coding, but it still seems to be reading from the parent theme, not child?

Actually – just realised this was only for making the ‘More info’ section in the header a hyperlink. The code didn’t work?

Hello. I’m looking to purchase this theme. Does it come with demo software? I’m concerned what I see in the demo will be complicated to duplicate. thanks
I am having issue with having the menu show on my mobile device and I did not hide it in the css. site is: www.inandoutfoodcourt.co.uk
View on a computer the menu is there at the top, view on a mobile; there’s nothing.
Yes I’m sorry there is a little bug in the theme that I’m gonna fix in the next update! Right now you can make the mobile menu appear if you rename the menu to “main menu”. So simply go to Appearance > Menus and in the field Menu Name enter “main menu”.

Thanks for the reply. I have another issue because my website is one page, and my menu has it scrolling down and not going to individual pages like your demo but when i am on the blog section of my website, (from home page when i click view all posts and takes me to actual blog page). The menu now doesn’t work because the menu is goes to like #section-2107 instead of an actual page. So when im on my blog page and click on any page on the menu none work.
Actually just figured out how to sort that out: by changing menus to go to url/section-2107 instead of section-2017. But now my menus text have gone from black to blue (blue was the colour that the pages would go after hovering over them) now it seems like they are just stuck on blue instead of being black and blue when hovering over
Hello?
Hmm.. for some reason all of your menu items have a class of “current” instead of only the one item that is clicked. Can you get in touch via the support tab and send me your login info? Maybe I can find out what’s going on.
I sent you that message 6 hours ago but I have not recieved a response yet?
Hey there! I’m sorry but unfortunately I don’t have a support team. I’m just by myself. I just fixed the problem on your site and sent you an email. You had custom links added to your menu instead of pages.
I sent you a question by email and you did not respond! It’s been almost 2 weeks!
What is the purpose of extended support if you won’t respond to support questions?
Hey there, sorry for the delay! I’ll check my emails right now.
email sent!
Thanks
