Do you have provide demo content and files to let us to import?

Thanks.

Hello,

Yes, theme supports PHP 5.3.8 and MySQL 5.6.13. Yes, theme package contains demo content as .xml file ready to be imported into the WordPress installation. Note that images are replaced with grey placeholders, since we do not have the license to share the images used on our demo.

Kind Regards

Is there a way to have the left menu bar hidden and open when you click on the hamburger menu during full-screen view on a laptop?

Hello,

Sure, just go to Customizer > Layout Settings and uncheck the ‘Show header on desktop’ setting.

I wanna to add GAB.ai social icon as social link in left menu. How to make one this?

Hello,

All icons are implemented as a font. You can use https://icomoon.io/app to create/customize your icon-based font. Once inside the icomoon tool, import sleek/icons/selection.json file to get the current state of the font. After you finish your customizations (like importing new icons), export the font and replace the significant files within the theme.

icons.php file is manually created to list all icons for later usage in the theme (mostly admin panel icon-picker). If you need your icon to be in the icon-picker, make sure to add it there as well.

Of course, you can disregard all this and simply force your icon/style onto the social link, but that’s hacky approach we wouldn’t recommend.

Kind Regards

WP-LESS hasn’t been updated over 2 years and Wordfence warned me this plugin appears to be abandoned. Please create your own code inside the theme with attach less.php to next release.

Hello,

WP-Less is not a required plugin. Unless you are customizing white, greys or black color, you can freely disable it. It is used to provide these overarching color customizations, all other regular customizations are not affected by it.

It’s true that the plugin wasn’t updated, but there was no need for that. It has no bugs, security holes and simply works as it should. We know for a fact that it is not abandoned since we communicated with the developer on one occasion about it.

This kind of functionality is heavily in the plugin territory, and even if we tried to integrate it into the theme, it would be brought down by the Envato review team, as it is against the guidelines/standards.

Unfortunately, we can’t honor your request, but you can simply disable it. We hope that this approach can solve your issue.

Kind Regards

Thanks you for let me know that the plugin

I think I’ve setup everything to what I imagined by now. It’s an awesome skin and the support was fantastic. Just wanted to say thank you. https://black2wh.it

Great, glad to hear that!
Feel free to leave the rating/review.

When using the commerce, the product page is opened, but it is not visible.

If you reduce the size of the browser, the menu on the left disappears and you will see the product page only then.

Can you solve this problem?

Thank you.

I created and modified the woocommerce.php file as described on the woocommerce website.

URL : https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/third-party-custom-theme-compatibility/

but..

Now the menu and sidebar are visible, but the product page is not visible.

That you very much. very well work!!!!

Hey,

Glad to hear that you successfully made it! Great job!

Gorgeous theme! Is there eCommerce support options for Sleek?

Hello,

We do not have an e-commerce support out-of-the-box, but you could surely install the plugin and implement additional necessary styling.

Any blog layout can be customized to display only posts from certain category, but there is no option for the interactive buttons that would filter the posts currently displayed.

Kind Regards

Which ecommerce plugin is compatible? Also, I was looking at how categories are displayed – does this mean that the theme does not support sub-categories? e.g. Food >> Dessert >> Ice Cream?

Hello,

You can use any e-commerce plugin, but you’ll need to customize the styles/templates to fit the theme.

Theme perfectly supports sub-categories. They are a WordPress standard, we simply didn’t use them on our demo.

Kind Regards

Hello

I’m using your theme for my hotel. I would like to show pictures from my place and using NG Gallery plugin. I’m not getting error but my gallery is not as I expect.

When you click the image I can’t forward next picture and when I click X button on the right there is blank page. because it stays on the link of picture. not gallery page. Do you have any idea how to fix it?

Link: http://sigacikgardenya.com/web/galeri/

Thank you.

Hello,

Glad to hear that you solved the gallery issue by switching plugins. If you need any more advice about this, feel free to ask.

Both your questions can be easily solved with a bit of CSS. Paste this code into Theme Customizer > Advanced > Custom CSS. The number values are current defaults. Lower them per your needs:

.header__logo {
    margin-bottom: 80px;
}

.sidebar .widget {
    margin-bottom: 55px;
}

Kind Regards

Thank you!

I stuck or I don’t know or it is not possible that;

I want to show something else then homepage on sidebar when user click the “my room” page.

So different sidebar with different pages is it possible?

When user click my room page, people will see some pictures on the left sidebar. Normally they see social media and information things on sidebar.

Hello,

The theme itself does not have a ‘multiple sidebars’ feature, but you can easily solve this by using the Widget Visibility module from the Jetpack plugin. After you enable this module, all your widgets will have a ‘Visibility’ button next to ‘Save’. Use this to set rules when should be certain widget displayed/hidden.

Kind Regards

Hi! Please help me how to hide comments icon and numbers in posts and in Main Blog Posts also?

Yes, style.css is fine place. We just visited your website, and your blog does not display comment icons.

Are we missing something?

Kind Regards

http://cdn1.savepice.ru/uploads/2017/5/5/a162537e9a98011b3c5bb3fbadbfa30c-full.jpg Please look to this pic. I don’t need to show any comment icons because I don’t use comment on my site it all

Please look at this pic: http://imgur.com/a/AXYDr

It seems that you added the code correctly. Please make sure that you’ve cleared your browsers cache and that you are viewing indeed the current state of website.

Hello, i see you have made a new version of the theme available, what changes have you made? i’m scared to update themes as sometimes the older shortcodes don’t work anymore, and I have to do the website all over agai…will i be safe by updating the teme? Thank you!

Hello,

Changelog can be found here: http://library.korra.io/sleek/changelog/

Every new version is fully backwards compatible, so all functions, shortcodes and styles are intact.

Also, all your content, Theme Customizer settings and child-theme are not affected by the update. However, if you changed theme’s original template files, those changes will be overwritten.

Kind Regards

Hello, I am testing the theme out on my localhost, and with auto load on sometimes list grid breaks like so. http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/2458717/2bc15d0e65d78a63c982136f658f3807 http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/2458718/75fbe95536c128ee006c8b37344183f5 It’s local so all I can show you are screenshots. FYI I am using custom font plugin, for obvious reasons (Korean language). Other than that I can’t think of why this happens. Also, it’s fine with auto load off.

That seems like a good approach.

I can’t say what caused the issue, but it is possible that plugin used some questionable way of embedding fonts.

Make sure to add an icon-font override after your custom font (due to !important):

[class^="icon-"], [class*=" icon-"] {
  font-family: 'icomoon' !important;
}

Cheers

I have no idea where to put it, so I just removed !important LOL. It is fine without it, just need to further test the page from different browsers.

Feel free to test, of course, but know that the icon CSS I gave you should be pasted in the same file where you put your custom google font css.

Hello, I would like to remove the menu bar on the left since I will not need it. How can I get rid of menu (header) bar button (three orange bars button) on the top left?

I commented out ” a href=”#” title=”Show/Hide Header” class=”header__toggle js-touchscreen-header-toggle” div /div /a” part from header.php and it seems to work. Should I keep it that way or will I get problems?

Hello,

That’s a completely sound solution. Note that if you changed header.php file in the main, parent theme, it will be overwritten upon theme update.

Alternatively, you can simply hide the button with CSS:

.header__toggle {
    display: none;
}

Paste the code in the Theme Customizer > Advanced > Custom CSS field. This code is not affected by any kind of update.

Cheers

Is there a way to get the blog title images and carousels to respect the aspect ratio of the featured image instead of a hard crop?

Hello,

In most cases, you would need to change the appropriate image-presets so that they don’t crop images. This can be done like this: http://library.korra.io/sleek/documentation/#change-image-size-preset . If you need help figuring out what image-presets are needed to change, just let us know what are the exact images which you wish to change.

In case of featured slider, this can’t be done, as it is fixed to fill the whole screen in the 16:9 aspect ratio.

Kind Regards

How to enable public comments on posts in sleek?

Hello,

Sleek does not alter the way comments are posted.

You should check your commenting settings in WP-Admin > Settings > Discussion. Also, make sure that comments are not disabled on the post specifically (in Edit Post screen).

Kind Regards

Can the sidebar be collapsed if needed?

Hello,

Yes, see this demo example: http://sleek.korra.io/audio-post-author-no-sidebar/

Kind Regards

When using [icon]heart4[/icon] in the copyright section, it only displays it as plain text.

How do I allow it to use shortcodes as shown on the demo?

Hello,

Copyright field does not support shortcodes. To insert icon, use direct html like this:

<i class="icon-heart4"> </i>

Kind Regards

How do you add an advert to the sidebar? I can’t find anything in the provided documentation.

Hello,

Content in sidebar is added via sidebar widgets.

You can install one of the many available plugins for displaying Ads, or simply use basic Text Widget to add your Ad code.

Kind Regards

Hi, is it possible to adjust the excerpt length?

Hello,

To customize excerpt per specific posts you can use Manual Excerpts: http://library.korra.io/sleek/documentation/#customize-excerpt


If you want to change length of all excerpts, add the following function to child-theme’s functions.php and set the value to number of words you wish to have (current default is 20).

function sleek_excerpt_length() {
  return 20;
}

Kind Regards

Thanks very much!

Hi, can we change font styles (for posts, titles, etc) in our website using Sleek Theme option panel?

Hello,

Yes, you can find appropriate settings in the Theme Customizer > Style > Typography.

Kind Regards
