You can use any post type you want. Generally I would recommend using a Templatera template since those aren’t public (WPBakey Page Builder > Templates )

Hi,

If you already have shopify my advise is to first test out their WordPress integration plugin with your current theme – http://www.wpexplorer.com/shopify-wordpress-plugin/ – switching to WooCommerce could be a big switch so I would first try out their system to see if it works for you.

Of course I want you to purchase my themes, but if you can easily integrate your current shop with your current theme it could save you a lot of time and some money.

- AJ

That plugin no longer works/exists.

Really? They have an entire landing page still – https://www.shopify.com/buy-button/wordpress?ref=wpexplorer

Hi,

If you want to display a randomly loaded video from Vimeo you would need to use javascript for that. It could be possible via PHP but if you are using any caching on the site (all WP sites should have caching) then it would get cached with the same video.

The javascript is pretty simple though. If you have a row with a video you just need the javascript to target the iframe src where the video is being shown.

When looking at your site though I see a self hosted video background, so maybe I’m not understanding correctly what you want. I thought you wanted to have a random video from vimeo show as the background, is this correct?

- AJ

Hi AJ. Thank you for your reply. I was trying to randomly load a few Vimeo videos but i ended using Slider Revolution for that.
But my solution seems to be 99% finished except for a local-scroll-link not behaving properly. If you go here (https://www.stonecapital.pt/inicio-teste-2/) you will see that the “Portfolio” link doesn’t scroll down how it should. It first loads the page (it seems) and them it scrools down. That particular link has the correct local-scroll-link class, though.
Any ideas about what might be causing this?. Thanks once again.

Hi AJ. Please disregard this last message. Problem solved.

Hi,

You can change the position with CSS the issue is the date element is inside the whole entry to position it relative to the image it would need to be wrapped where the image is. The best solution is probably a new custom Image Overlay – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/create-new-overlay-styles/

I don’t have a timeline for when the hotspot module will be ready. I’m still doing some research (mostly asking customers) about the best way to create it and design it. If you have suggestions please send them over, thanks!

- AJ

Yes. Just one small one. I had a blank row (where I used to have something else) and just deleted that. It works on all platforms now. Odd.

Ah that would make sense actually as there is a known bug in Firefox with empty elements and using flex items with min-height values, I just didn’t notice that when I was looking.

Glad it’s working now!

Thanks!

I edit the post

Thanks!

Oh yes there is another margin you need to worry about Add this custom CSS as well:

body .single-blog-content { margin: 0; }

- AJ

Thanks AJ. Works perfectly now!

Let me hit them up again and see if this can be sorted out, I am planning a 4.6.2 update shortly and I hope to add the fix for this.

- AJ

I was looking closer and unfortunately it seems Slider Revolution names their icons differently then the default FontAwesome so their CSS is highly modified and if it’s removed the icons won’t be visible

So it doesn’t seem they can update things without breaking current customer sites. If you want to prevent the double script from loading you could also just use an SVG alternative to the icon.

ps: This site is awesome for icons for any site – http://www.streamlineicons.com/

You’re the best! Thank you AJ for the detailed reply and follow up information.

Hi,

If you want to use theme options you can change it under Appearance > Customize > Footer Widgets : https://cl.ly/qb89

- AJ

Oh, sorry and thank you. Sometimes I’m a little blind.

Thank you AJ.

It’s a minor problem for me but the pagination doesn’t show with this custom query, either in PTA module or Post Types Grid module :

&cat=235&post_status=draft&posts_per_page=8&paged=true&orderby=menu_order&order=asc

In case it helps seeing the page : https://culture-officer.fr/drafts

(PT grid above has 13 eligible draft posts of which 8 displayed as per the query)

Michel

Hi Michel,

Oh sorry I meant to say you need to add “pagination=true” not “paged=true” – my bad!

Paged is used to define which page should be the default shown when you first load the site.

- AJ

Thank you indeed, AJ, it works fine

And it’s a really useful capability to see drafts in PT Grid at writing stage (I plan to write about 2 dozen short ones in advance)

Hi Jose,

1. Yes Total is Multi-language ready. The most common plugins for that are WPML and Polylang both which are supported by the theme.

2. Total should support all 3rd party plugins since it doesn’t make any hard customizations to WooCommerce. If you have any issues with a 3rd party plugin let me know and I can test it to see what’s going on.

3. Yes, there are options included for altering your colors via the Customizer – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/customizing-theme-design/

The most important thing though if you plan on using Multilanguage and WooCommerce is you need a GOOD server. This is a big mistake people make is choosing a budget hosting solution like godaddy, bluehost, hostgator…etc. If you do, your site will be extremely slow and potentially time out with errors. Highly recommend you use a good managed WordPress hosting solution to better support these powerful plugins such as Flywheel, WPEngine, Kinsta…etc.

- AJ

Hi,

1. I am seeing a javascript error on the page causing the lightbox to not work – https://cl.ly/qeT4 – have you made any manual tweaks to any theme files or installed any new plugins recently that could have caused this? Or did you recently update the theme? (maybe I messed something up, but it is still working for me when testing locally – https://cl.ly/qeV9).

2. For the form some of your labels have the font-weight bold added to the code manually – https://cl.ly/qei1 – and some don’t have anything not even the label tag – https://cl.ly/qem8 – you just have to consistently add your tags in the form html.

3. I’m not seeing an issue with “In the contact, us page once you click on the message text area that white box moves a bit up” – this is what I see: https://cl.ly/qeZI

Do you see the issue on a specific browser?

4. The photos under Vacancies look good to me. I checked on the computer using an emulator but also on my iPhone and iPad. This is a screenshot from crossbrowsertesting as well – https://cl.ly/qeqU - which is what I see. What are you seeing? And on what mobile device?

5. None of the links on your site are opening on a new tab/window when I test – are you sure you don’t have any settings on your browser that are doing that?

- AJ

Thanks, AJ.

I didn’t make any manual tweaks, I have though installed few plugins and updated Wordpress and Total theme. I have another lightbox on the same page for a video and it works perfectly, please if you could help me fix this I would really appreciate it, I have already deleted and created it all over again but still same issue T.T.

P.S. I just made sure that it happened right after the update

Hi,

Thank you for your patience (I had to leave town and just got back – it’s not typical for me to do this).

To be honest I don’t see any lightbox issue, can you let me know exactly where and what it is. I read through our previous conversation but I don’t see the problem. Thank you!

- AJ

Thanks AJ.

Silly question then.

So based on the doc, if I entered a size of 150px for example for the Blog Entry in the Theme Panel > Image Sizes, then I select Portfolio Grid module and set the Media size to Blog_entry, it will set it to 150px?

Or are these two separate ways of setting image sizes?

Thanks

Joanna

Hi Joanna,

You are completely correct (no need to enter px in the image sizes though just enter 150). So if you enter 150 for the width and leave the height empty it will resize to 150 width. if you enter 150 for the width and 150 for the height it will become a 150×150 square.

If cropping isn’t working make sure this setting is enabled – https://cl.ly/qbfn – if disabled the theme won’t auto resize images, instead images are resized when uploaded only (default WordPress behavior).

- AJ

Thank you AJ.

Hi,

There aren’t built-in settings to tweak the font family for the image slider caption but it’s very easy with some custom CSS. Example:

body .wpex-slider-caption { font-family: Georgia; }

Not sure what you mean about adding an icon in the caption. Do you have an example of what you want to do exactly? Thanks!

- Aj

Thanks AJ. No example to show you but if I can do the font change through CSS, I can probably manager the icon too. I’ll give that a try.

Just let me know how else I can assist.

Yes, miraculously now it works.Thank you. Before I do the CSS, again do I need to put it in [ ] or just copy paste the entire line you sent me as is? Sorry for being a nag but I’m totally new to this.

I put this */ at the end but it gave me a message there’s an error and if I go on it could break the site and something about an indent. ? So I erased it before updating.

Hi,

No the CSS the should be posted exactly as I shared it like this:

#footer-widgets { text-align: center; }

Example: https://cl.ly/qa0p

- AJ

Hi Bob,

Thank you for the wishes

Changing the price to display a caption is possible by hooking into WooCommerce filters. But I don’t understand what you mean by “I would like to show my sold items in the woocommerce products gallery”. Can you explain a bit better? Do you want to have a new page that displays only the sold out products?

- AJ

Hi AJ, thank you very much for your kind reply. I just would like to have sold items visible into my products gallery. I don’t want to create another page, just would like to have ‘sold’ instead of the price. I hope I explained myself better…thanks again! Bob

Hi Bob,

I added a little snippet for you, have a look here: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/woo-out-of-stock-price/

- AJ

Yes we are talking about the same thing but your example snippet is incorrect because “portfolio” is not a “taxonomy” (category) it’s a post type. So for example if targeting the portfolio and staff categories you would use this:

add_filter( 'wpex_has_term_description_above_loop', function( $bool ) {
    if ( is_tax( array( 'portfolio_category', 'portfolio_tag', 'staff_category', 'staff_tag' ) ) ) {
        return false;
    }
    return $bool;
} );

Or if you want to target ALL taxonomies on your site just do this:

add_filter( 'wpex_has_term_description_above_loop', '__return_true' );

- AJ

Thanks AJ – was just going to say that there’s still no selector box on the CPTs (using the all taxonomies code) but it turns out that the category text is now all above the loop anyway.

I can have an early night now and get onto things in the morning!

Correct, the code doesn’t add an option it actually changes the position

Hi,

You can mute Vimeo videos by adding a background=1 parameter as mentioned in their docs, but it only works if you have a premium account – https://help.vimeo.com/hc/en-us/articles/115011183028-Embedding-background-videos

- AJ

Hi,

Great, I’m glad you love the theme and thank you for all the purchases!

It’s not possible to change the breakpoints because they are set in the responsive CSS file (without manually editing this file which isn’t ideal).

What are you trying to change exactly? So I can help with the custom CSS for that or suggest the best method possible.

- AJ

Hi Frank,

It looks good to me on all the pages, did you manage to fix the issue? By the way instead of using the Footer builder you can also just go to Theme Panel > Custom actions and insert the HTML for an image into the “wpex_hook_footer_before” section. Either way works well, but just so you know

- AJ

Thanks AJ! I eventually found that I had to add a “minimum height” of 600px to close the gap. Even if I set “content position” to “bottom,” I still had the white gap. I have a lot of learning before I will get to the level of knowing how to work with classes and such. I’m just an old-schooled dog from WYSIWYG days… if it wasn’t for you folks creating such easy drag-n-drop WP themes, I’d be no where! I think I’ve bought 4 or 5 themes from you… my ONLY go-to theme! Thanks a mil!

That’s awesome, I’m glad to hear that. I’ve seen you around for a while and you’ve always been a great customer so I really appreciate it. I hope you enjoy the rest of yourSunday! Happy Easter.

- AJ

Hi,

Content shouldn’t be missing. Anything you add to the template that you set as the footer builder should display, can you share an example live URL with the problem so I can inspect the code?
