Is there a way to change the height of the header? Just want my logo to be slightly larger in the header / more space.

I would recommend you to increase the height of the logo first.

You can add custom CSS below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS to increase the logo height:

#header-logo img {    
    max-height: 90%;
}

If you’d like to make it bigger, you will need to add custom CSS below to increase the height of the header:

#header .container {
    height: 120px;
}

That works! Thank you! Is there a way to have the logo centered (split header) with the menu on the left and right of it?

Disregard – I saw your post on another comment. You’re right, centered doesn’t look as good with the different menu item widths!

can you help me modify the header/top navigation to be not in full width?

https://www.globalchange.gov/

header something like this

You will need to disable the Full Width option in Theme Options -> Navigation -> Top Navigation to disable the full width navigation. Also, you can change the “Layout” of the navigation to “Classic” so the menu items will align to the right.

However, you have only Dark and Light background for the top navigation in this theme. If you’d like to set the background image or set it to other background colors, you will need to add custom CSS below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS:


#header.w-fixed:before {
    display: none;
}

#header .container {
    background: url(https://www.globalchange.gov/sites/globalchange/themes/f1ux/images/header_top_bg.png) no-repeat 0 0;
    -webkit-box-shadow: 0 -25px 0 10px #164159;
    -moz-box-shadow: 0 -25px 0 10px #164159;
    box-shadow: 0 -25px 0 10px #164159;
}

thanks!, one more question, I was wondering how will I make the body /content overlaps with the header

In the page edit screen, try to enable or disable the Transparent Header option in the Overlap Options -> Header to see if it works.

Hi does your Overlap WordPress Theme support multi languages.

Thanks, Benedikt

Sure, it does. This theme is compatible with WPML plugin ( https://wpml.org/ ) that allows you to create multilingual site.

Dear Wyde Themes, I’ve purchased the awesome Overlap Theme 19th of januari and i am trying to build an one-page site, from there i will begin customizing. The one-page succeeded (simple one click in the menu) and it works on my laptop fine but when i checked it on my mobile i cannot see the site? What am i doing wrong? Please help, many thanks and best regards Menno

That image is in the Title Area settings. When you edit that page with the Backend Editor, scroll download to the Overlap Options at the bottom of the page edit screen, select Title Area tab to change it.

Searched everywhere but not there :0, thanks

Go to Pages, edit the page “About Me 2”. Scroll down to the Overlap Options at the bottom of the page. If it is not there, it might be a plugin conflict issue. If you have other plugins installed, try to deactivate them to see if it works.

If it still doesn’t work, please provide me your WordPress admin login details: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Hello, Interested in purchasing this theme

http://preview.themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/15344205

I was wondering if on the carousel “Overlap Slider” if there is a way to make the images link to another page? For example, to link an image of a project to a portfolio page?

Thank you, Lexi

Ok thank you. And by description text, does that include the title and subhead area? Or only the paragraph of text in the bottom right corner?

Also, Is this header made with Slider Revolution? https://wydethemes.com/overlap/overlap2/

1. You couldn’t add the link to the title and sub heading text. The description text is only the paragraph of text in the bottom right corner.

2. Sure, that is a Slider Revolution.

Hi – we have been using the Overlap / Corporate version for 6 months and just recently our Google Map is not displaying on the Contact Page. I have gone through our Google API settings / removed / add the map back and its still not displaying. Any suggestions?

Please ensure that you have updated the theme and all bundled plugins. You can find more details about the latest update in the changelog: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log

If you did but it still doesn’t work, please give me your site URL.

I have verified that we updated with the latest version – and the goggle map is not working. The URL is https://www.pridecentricresources.com/contact/ and the map should be in the big blank space. :)

Thank you for your site URL!

This is a plugin conflict issue. It seems like you have another Google Maps plugin installed and it includes Google Maps API multiple times so the map doesn’t work properly. Try to deactivate your Google Maps plugin to see if it works.

Hi, I’m very happy with the theme but I if I use Portfolio Grid Setting “view” on “Photoset” I have no images on the mobile responsive layout. I checked all adjustments but I can’t find the problem… If I change the Grid Setting on any other (grid, mansonry, overlap) there are images on mobile version. Can anyone help me? Thank you in advance!

I’m sorry, this is a bug of the Photoset layout when you don’t have image in the gallery so you have only 1 image in slideshow and it doesn’t work properly on mobile.

Actually, when you add images to the gallery options of the portfolio you will have photo slideshow like you can see in our demo: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/portfolios/portfolio-photoset-2-columns/

Thank you for reporting this issue, we will fix it in the next update.

Anyway, if you’d like you can fix it right now by adding custom CSS below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS:

.w-portfolio-grid.w-photoset .w-view figure div.cover-image {
   opacity: 1; 
}

Perfect, it works! Thank you a lot :-) love the template, perfect support! Keep it up!

Happy to hear that it works! Thank you :)

Hello Wyde, I made a website with overlap theme. I have issues with the portfolio page on mobile phone. The portfolio doesn’t show on mobile phone. http://lecielpardessusletoit.fr/portfolio/ Can you help me? Thank you. Best Regards.

Hello,

This issue has been fixed in the Overlap 1.3.1 that was released on October 28, 2017 as you can see in the changelog: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log

You will need to update the theme to fix it. Also, I would recommend you to install the Envato Market plugin to enable the automatic update feature so you can download and install the new update from your WordPress admin page. You can find more details on how to update the theme by using Envato Market plugin in our documentation.

Hello Wyde, thank you for your answer. I will do the update with te Envato Market plugin. Have a good day.

Hi! Just a little question … is there a way to use a custom loader image? Best regards, Roland

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in our theme.

Sure, you can choose your image to display as the page loader in Theme Options panel.

I downloaded and installed your theme tonight and I’m deeply disappointed and frustrated. I’ve been using WordPress for 5 years and have taught web development, but I’m apparently incompetent at this theme. The back end of this theme is so convoluted that I can’t figure out anything. At this point, I’ve successfully ruined my website and have to revert to an old theme so that I have a website. The overlap section of the page developer doesn’t work. No matter what I do, the page won’t fill the width of the screen, it stays fixed in the middle. The portfolios don’t load anything. I’m lost and can’t find any support on how to even begin using all of the extras this theme brought to me. The example page is stunning, but I don’t have any idea how on earth you got there.

Thank you for your comments!

This theme comes with custom content elements and features, it might not be compatible with your old content and data so you would see it doesn’t work like it should be.

I would recommend you to import demo content so you will receive all pages, posts and portfolio including other post types from our demos, this is the easiest way to see how we build the pages and posts on our demo site. So, you can easily edit them to replace the text and images with yours.

You can find more details on how to import demo content in our documentation.

In this theme, if you’d like to make the row to completely fill the width of the screen, you will need to do all steps below:

1. In the Overlap Options at the bottom of the page edit screen, select the Page tab and then change the Page Layout to “Wide”.

2. In the Row Settings, choose “Full Width” for the “Content Width”.

3. In the Column Settings, change the “Padding Size” to “No Padding”.

To display the portfolio, please ensure that you have portfolio posts in Portfolio page on your WordPress admin and also set the featured images of them.

Also, if you’d like you can provide me your site URL so I can take a better look.

Hi. There is a problem with portfolio, the “categorys” go above the photo, as you can see in this capture https://goo.gl/j2DPGb ¿anyway to solve this? Thank you so much in advance

I’m sorry but that layout is not suitable for displaying so many categories in the filter. If you have too many categories, you should use other portfolio layouts instead. This theme comes with 5 portfolio layouts, and other 4 layouts will show the categories filter at the top of the portfolio so you won’t see this problem if you choose them, see the ones below:

https://wydethemes.com/overlap/portfolios/portfolio-standard-masonry/ https://wydethemes.com/overlap/portfolios/portfolio-photoset-2-columns/ https://wydethemes.com/overlap/portfolios/portfolio-grid-with-space-2-columns/

Please Help I’m using the travel demo theme, the share buttons are not working, it says page not found.

I also have these default contacts: +1 111-888-00 email@domain.com 1234, Your Address, 123456

that is only visible in mobile or tab phones header under the search button. how can I get rid or edit it? thanks again in advance!

1. The share buttons issue has been fixed in the recent update of the theme, you will need to update the theme to fix it.

2. You can edit the contact info in mobile menu in Theme Options -> Navigation -> Contact Info Items.

Hello

Can I set up the theme to show:

1) POST CAROUSEL. I would like to show only posts from chosen category. 2) POST SLIDER. I would like to show 5 recent posts.

Could you tell me how to do that?

Thanks for any help!

Hello,

I’m sorry but the Post Carousel and Post Slider are not included the Overlap theme. There are only 3 blog layouts (Overlap, Masonry and Standard) in this theme as you can see in the product details page and our demo site. So, you will need to use the Slider Revolution to create them instead.

To create Post Carousel and Post Slider, go to Revolution Slider page. And then add new slider, select the “Post-Based Slider” for the Content Source so you can display the posts from specific category. You can find more details on how to create a Post-Based Slider here: https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/post-based-slider/

Also, it would be easier if you import demo slider instead of creating from scratch. You can download it here: http://revolution.themepunch.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/news-gallery-post-based.zip

And then import it in Revolution Slider page, see more on importing here: https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/first-steps/#import-theme-slider

Once you have created a post carousel, you can insert it to the page by adding a Revolution Slider element from WPBakery Page Builder.

Exactly what I was looking for thank you very much!

Hi there,

Is there any update on when the fix to the social share icon links on the blog will be working properly? We have seen a few posts about this dating back to months ago, and would like an ETA on when we can see this update.

Thanks!

That issue has been fixed in the recent update of the theme (1.4) that has been released on December 2, 2017. You can find more details in the changelog: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log

I would recommend you to install the Envato Market plugin to enable the automatic update feature so you can automatically download and install the new update from Appearance -> Themes on your WordPress admin page. You can find more details on how to install the Envato Market plugin in our documentation.

Hello !

I have some issues with personnalized links. I’ve try to define Row ID. They appear next to the row but it is not possible to use those rows ID to create personnalized link.

I’ve created other website with Visual Composer and this method has always worked. Is it something specific to do with your theme ?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Thank you for your site URL!

Actually, you have set an incorrect link to the menu.

Your row’s ID (#genese) you defined is on the page called ‘Le projet’. The URL of that page is ‘http://www.jesuisnez.ch/le-projet/'. However, you have set the URL of the menu to ’#genese’ that refers to the row ’#genese’ on your home page. You should set the full URL to the menu.

To fix this problem, you will need to change the URL of the menu (‘Pourquoi ?’) to ‘http://www.jesuisnez.ch/le-projet/#genese' instead of ’#genese’ so it will bring you to the row ’#genese’ in the page ’’Le projet’.

Thank you very much for your answer ! Obviously, it does work now ! Thanks again…

You’re welcome :)

Hi! The Demo page we downloaded (Personal Portfolio) appears boxed and not full-width. How do we fix that?

Please ensure that you have selected “Wide” for the page layout. Edit the personal portfolio home page, in the Overlap Options -> Page, choose “Wide” for the Layout.

If you did but it still doesn’t work, please give me your site URL so I can take a better look.

Hi. Is possible in portfolio with layout grid, make that all preview images look the same size, no matter size of original image? Thank you

The portfolio grid layout displays the featured images in squared thumbnails (640×640px). Your images should be bigger than 640×640px so they will be cropped to fit perfectly and appear in the same size.

I’m trying to make my slider responsive. When I change some settings in the settings page of the slider and I save I get “Ajax error!”. I need this slider responsive, can you help me. My license is 11adff1-feaa-4447-bf0d-d8901b087c7b

Please ensure that you have updated the Overlap theme and Slider Revolution plugin to the latest update. Also, if you have a cache plugin on your site make sure you have purged all caches after updating the Slider Revolution plugin.

If it still doesn’t work, please give me your site URL and admin login details so I can take a better look. You can send a private message in the contact form: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Hi!

First of all, thanks for the fantastic theme! We’ve been using Elementor Pro and we’re very happy with it but when we installed Overlap (to get the amazing layouts, navigation etc) the whole thing crashed… all you can see on the page (the Overlap Personal Portfolio homepage) when you try to edit it with Elementor are a header followed by endless lines of code. Is there a way to fix that, or is Overlap incompatible with Elementor? Please, let us know asap, we have to pause our work until we hear back from you. In case the issue can’t be fixed, we’ll sadly have to ask for a refund.

Many thanks and Happy New Year!

Hi!

Thank you for your nice words!

All content elements in our demo content are created by WPBakery Page Builder plugin, you will need to edit them by using that plugin.

As seen in the theme details page, this theme is integrated with WPBakery Page Builder (Visual Composer) plugin, all pages and layouts seen on our demos are only available for the WPBakery Page Builder. The Elementor plugin is not included in the plugins support list so I would not recommend you to use it with this theme.

However, if you would like to use the Elementor, you will need to create new page and add new elements from that plugin instead. The predefined pages from demo content are not compatible with it.

!!Happy New Year!!
