Any idea why this is happening and what can be done to fix it? My client has these lessons posted and all print is black, but when they are on this page, they are pink and I can’t seem to figure out how to change them to black.https://www.cseff.com/category/topics/essential-lessons/ any help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Thank you for your patience.
I see a font wrapper inserted on the page here – https://cl.ly/qo89 – it looks like this was inserted into the Header “Aside” content but it wasn’t closed so the target color is being applied to the whole page. Simply go to Appearance > Customize > Header > General > Aside and remove this code. Then you can go to Customize > Typography and here you can define your custom color for the Aside area instead.

Hi, I’m a complete novice so bear with me 
I have 2 questions:
1. how can i change the width of a message box? On our page lapvr.org/exemptions you’ll see the blue informational box spans the entire width of the page and I want it to be the same width as the text box below it.
2. Is it possible to change the text color of the text on a Total Button? I know nothing of CSS (novice, remember?) so please be very specific of any steps LOL Thanks so much!
Hi,
This is AJ the theme developer. I”ll be happy to help with any questions you have an even provide custom CSS if needed but can you please log in with the account used to purchase the theme or if you don’t have a license please purchase once, support is for verified buyers only. Thanks!
I hope you had a nice weekend,
AJ
Hi AJ
how have you been? I’m still a massive buyer and recommend-er of Total.
I am having an issue with my homepage. I can’t make any changes to it!
when I do, it won’t update, it just spins and spins.
I’ve tried to clone the page and then update that cloned page, but the issue follows it. I have issues having to refresh because changes won’t be saved.
I have tried to figured out the cause and thought it was the tour element but that hasn’t been the case. But then I eliminated it here http://interrainternational.com/test3/ and was able to publish it (but the publish button is still on the edit page screen, it hasn’t changed to ‘update’ as it normally would), but now I can’t make changes to that test file.
I’ve also tried deactivating plugins such as visual composer and WPML but the issue remains. I’ve also cleared the cache multiple times.
this is the original page: http://interrainternational.com/
Could you help?
Thank you!

Hi,
I’ve been well, but I had to leave town for a bit. I appreciate your patience with this question.
In terms of saving the page, does it only happen on the homepage? Do you see any errors in the console?
If you can share the code uses – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/share-page-content-troubleshooting/ – I can troubleshoot on my own computer and see if I have the same issues.
Thank you again for your patience and for being such a great customer!

Hello, I have a custom taxonomy called “location” set up. I used a plugin called “Add Widget After Content” to show related posts based on Location after single blog posts on my old theme.
Now I’d like to use the Total related posts feature, but using “location” instead of categories. I’ve search high and low, found many useful snippets but nothing I’ve tried works.
Could you provide a snippet to change the related posts from categories to location, please? I have the child theme set up already. Thanks
Hi,
Again sorry for the delayed reply (I just replied to your rating). Usually support is very fast but things haven’t been “normal” for the last 5 days or so. I appreciate your patience.
Regarding your question, changing the related query is pretty easy to do. I have a sample snippet here: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/related-blog-posts-based-tags/
So to use “location” instead you could add something like this to your child theme’s functions.php file:
add_filter( 'wpex_blog_post_related_query_args', function( $args ) {
// Remove category arguments
$args['category__in'] = null;
// Get location terms
$locations = wp_get_post_terms( get_the_ID(), 'location' );
// If post has locations, create array of location ids and query posts inside these locations
if ( $locations ) {
$location_ids = array();
foreach( $locations as $location ) {
$location_ids[] = $location->term_id;
}
$args['tax_query'] = array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'location',
'field' => 'term_id',
'terms' => $location_ids,
),
);
}
// Return arguments
return $args;
} );
This is of course for the blog related items only, if you are using a different post type then the code would be tweaks a bit to change the filter name.
Again, I apologize for the delayed reply. This isn’t normal, support is usually much much faster (hence all the other positive reviews).
Thank you for understanding,
AJ
Thanks AJ, this works. I regret that I had to leave a negative review. If I’d known the reason for delay, I would have been more patient. I’ve tried to edit the review, but it looks like I can’t. Next time you have a special offer on, I’ll buy another licence. Thanks.
Hi.
Great, I’m glad that worked well for you. Yes, unfortunately ThemeForest doesn’t have a good way for my support staff to answer comments so I answer all comments and my staff answers most tickets (unless they need to assign them to me).
In terms of the review, it’s not a big deal and I understand your frustration completely. In terms of changing it you can’t edit the review, you need to leave a new one.
If you need anything else let me know!
- AJ
Big discount right now on the theme incase you were serious about grabbing another license 
I hope the theme is still working well for you and like always if you need anything let me know!
- AJ
Thanks AJ, bought another licence. I hope Total will be around and supported for many years to come. I also recommended the theme to a friend yesterday. He said he would get it too.
Hi, just a little friendly reminder if you still like the theme to update your rating/review Also if you need anything else let me know!
ps: Version 4.6.2 to be released soon!

Hello AJ,
I’ve seen in a french newspaper article an image ad scrolling in kind of parallax mode, that seems to me a nice unusual thing.
Do you thing that could “easily” be implemented in a Total image module in the future ?
The page : https://bit.ly/2GREhYL (it’s the Lufthansa ad towards the middle)
And as I’m not sure such an ad would display outside France, here’s a quick capture : http://www.pnet.fr/parallax-image.mp4
Michel
Hi Michel,
This isn’t “parallax” perse, this is just a fixed background image much like the ones on this demo – http://totaltheme.wpengine.com/paris/
You can’t do that with a single image module because the image must be a background, you could do it with the Image Banner module though as this sets the image as a background and then via CSS give it a fixed attachment position.
Depending what you want though…like if you want to recreate the banner coding your own module may be best.
- AJ
Thank you AJ.
It would be OK to use Image Banner module. Apparently the “position:fixed” CSS you mention should not apply to “vcex-ib-image” ?
http://pnet.fr/image-banner-effect.pngHi,
You don’t want to target the position property but rather the background-attachment property like this:
vcex-ib-image { background-attachment: fixed !important; }
However, fixed backgrounds can cause some iOS devices to scroll very slow so be sure test accordingly.
- AJ
Thank you very much AJ.
Michel
How do you integrate ACF Advanced Custom Fields extra post meta into vcex_templates/testimonials-slider.php ? I have extra data like a headshot, company logo, author age, etc. Id like them to be displayed on the slider.
Hi,
This is Aj the theme developer.
Looks like I didn’t add filters to this module like I have done for grids so you can append content via your child theme like this – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/add-content-total-grid-modules/ – so currently the only way is by editing the file via a child theme and overriding it’s output (which isn’t the best possible way).
I’ve updated the file to include new filters which you can get here – https://cl.ly/qgyX – so if you replace this file via FTP you can append any extra content you want now via your child theme’s functions.php instead of overriding the whole file
If you need any help with the code let me know!
- AJ
I need help with the code?
Here is a screenshot of what I’m trying to dial in – https://i.imgur.com/H6vjf7U.jpg
I have two post meta keys “testimonial_headshot” and “testimonial_logo” I’m trying to pull that in above/around the full content.
I have updated the file in the parent theme and need some help with the code to drop in functions.php.
You know what would be sweet? If I could just use a Dynamic Visual Composer Template shortcode like this [templatera id=”373”] then I could just manage it like that, thoughts?
Also why does the post meta data show up on the single but not in the testimonial slider? I have decided to use a templatera module to control all of the layout of each slide, im using the vcex heading module and the image module etc. to make the template dynamic.
I use excerpt setting and set to -1 to show the_content(), but it seems like it doesn’t get the meta data like it does on singlular.php.
Does this have some type of filter of some sort that stops that meta data from populating or is it our side of the loop and is serching for it on the page that the testimonial slider is on?$output .= wpex_the_content( get_the_content(), 'vcex_testimonials_slider' );
Let me know.
Thanks a million for all your hard work.
Hi,
First of all thank you for your patience, I had to run out of town for a bit. I hope you had a nice weekend yourself.
Regarding your questions:
- The issue with using templatera shortcodes for module outputs is because it’s inside a loop it would display data for the current page not the current testimonial – modules look for the ID of the current page.
- If all you want to do is place the 2 meta around the content it’s very easy and less bloated to just use the new file I provided and the new hooks. Example:
// Add testimonial_headshot above the testimonial slider content
add_filter( 'vcex_testimonials_slider_excerpt', function( $output, $atts ) {
$output = '<div class="headshot">' . get_post_meta( get_the_ID() , 'testimonial_headshot', true ) . '</div>' . $output;
return $output;
}, 10, 2 );
Does that code make sense?
Not quite sure though why you have a testimonial_headshot meta though when the testimonial post type already has the featured image capability (I am assuming you are using that for an image)
- AJ
All good, glad you had some time off. My weekend was good as well, thanks for asking.
Yes, it does make sense. I’d really like to use a dynamic VC Template and use modules like, heading/image. I’ll retain a great amount of control in regard to layout, visibility, spacing without having to write much css/php/html.
Its there a way to assign a “unique_id” to each module with some filter to have it get the id of the testimonial and return the meta data to the module?
There has to be some way to get these modules dynamic and reference the meta associated with each testimonial.
Hi,
- Each module does have the ability to give it a unique ID via the general settings. If you notice the filter passes the $atts variable so you can check for a unique ID like this:
if ( isset( $atts['unique_id'] ) && 'my-custom-grid' == $atts['unique_id'] ) { }
I don’t think I am understanding completely regarding using the dynamic template. Are you creating a dynamic template like this – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGYuBjqkj8Q – for the post, but wanting this template to also be applied when displayed via the slider?
- AJ
Sorry let me try to clarify, I’d like to turn this into a templatera template – https://i.imgur.com/o9N6rJW.jpg
Then, I will manually add the templatera template to each testimonial (not through the customizer). Then I will insert the “testimonials slider” module, set the excerpt tab to enabled and excerpt length to “-1” to show the full content (i will essentially set title, postition etc to disabled).
I’m just wanting the module in the templatera template to get meta data from the testimonial, not the page the “testimonials slider” inserted on.
My logic was could we tell each module in the “templatera template” to use the ID of the testimonial post to get the meta data parts like “testimonial_headshot”, “testimonial_logo”, “testimonial_text”.
Sorry for the confusion and thanks for your help.
Got it…How are you inserting the meta data? Are you passing this on to the Single Image module somehow? (which by the way Total has it’s own Image module which is a bit better imo then the core page builder Single Image module).
I’m sure we can get this working I just need to know exactly how it’s setup. If you want you can send over the code so I can see locally and test – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/share-page-content-troubleshooting/
- AJ
Here is the templatera template “Testimonial Layout” – https://gist.github.com/jackstin/b02551db1b2666245fb3b16ecf8d3c3a
The meta fields are created using Advanced Custom Fields. You can see that I am using the new vcex image module (which allows for this dynamic src reference via custom field) using it in two places to reference “testimonial_headshot” and “testimonial_logo”. As for copy based elements I use the Heading Module with custom data “testimonial_text” and “wpex_testimonial_author”.
Just need to get the meta data from each testimonial, pull it into the testimonials slider module.
Suggestion: Fork the “style” option from the vc single image module, I need a “round image” setting option in the “testimonial_headshot” total image module
Thanks!
Hi,
Ok yes, the issue is that the modules all reference the current page as opposed to the post inside a loop. This is to prevent issues with the dynamic template functionality when being applied to “pages” that aren’t real pages such as the WooCommerce main shop page. It’s definitely possible and I think a “must” to allow these modules to work inside the loop but it’s going to require quite a bit of editing and testing. If you want you can submit a private ticket and request it be sent to AJ and I can email you a beta to test when ready (I’m working on the edits now) – http://wpexplorer-themes.com/support/
If I do this I could also update all my modules such as the testimonial slider and the grid modules so you could select a dynamic template for the output via a dropdown this way you don’t have to manually add it to each post.
- AJ
Sounds great!! Glad to assist your progress in any way. I have added the private ticket to the Help Scout ticketing. Have nice day. Thanks for the amazing support!
Great, I see the ticket. I just assigned it over to myself. There is a lot of thinking involved here so not quite sure when I’ll have something ready to test. Another concern is in the future I want to be able to have dynamic templates for archives (categories/tags) and there needs to be a good way of figuring out if the module is inside a loop (like a grid) or part of the overall template (which at the moment isn’t possible because of how shortcodes work). So I’m doing a lot of thinking right now before actually diving into the code.
Thank you for your patience.
ps: In the worst case I can at least add a filter so via a child theme you could easily set the ID of the post to be used. Oh yes, that’s one though…maybe a setting in the module that you can enable if the module is inside a loop and if enabled then grab the loop ID instead of the post id…yep that may be best, a bit more work, but probably best. Anyway I’ll keep brainstorming while knocking out some other customer questions and get back to you asap.

Hi, Im having an issue of Ubermenu in combination with the Header Builder, and Im not sure if its a bug from Ubermenu or coming from your theme.
The Ubermenu is only used on Mobile version, Im using the ScrollTo of Ubermenu function to scroll to different positions on the page. However always when Im on the top of the page, it scrolls slightly off. But when I scroll a little bit down, it scrolls to the right position. (It always scrolls to unique IDs defined in the page). Did you had a similar issue before? Maybe you can see rightaway what the problem is?
The page is http://dev.poligonal.de/, you already saw it
Thanks if its possible to get support on this, Ive also written to Ubermenu about it.
Best
Hi,
This is Aj the theme developer.
First of all thank you for your patience, I had to leave town and just got back.
Regarding your issue with local scroll…If you disable the sticky header on mobile via the Customizer do you still have issues?
I see a strange empty space after the header on scroll but having a hard time pin-pointing the exact issue: https://cl.ly/qnDk (then it snaps into place).

Hello, I have been using the theme for some while but suddenly the hamburger menu (mobile menu) does not work on the homepage. This only happens on mobile devices (desktop is OK).
Anyone what causes this issue?
Website:
www.aslibeau.com
Hi,
There is some javascript added to the site causing an error which is most likely breaking all the theme’s javascript (like the mobile menu toggle) – https://cl.ly/qgZU
- AJ
Hi AJ, apparently the plugin: “Enhanced E-commerce for Woocommerce store” was to blame. After deactivating this plugin the menu is working fine. Thanks, 5 star theme and support!
My support has expired, but I need a bit of help. I have read thru various comments, seen the video and still cannot get equal height column to work. Seems like this is a common problem. I have the latest version of the theme as well as VC. Adding the class on each column – equal-heightcontent or equal-height-column does not work. Checking the equal height column in VC row settings also does not work. All I want to do is add a row with 4 text boxes where eacj text is of different height. I want to add a background on each column and make them equal height. So how do I do that?
Hi,
It’s no problem I always answer comments whether customers have an active license or not.
The correct way to use equal heights is by using the checkbox in the row settings. If the background is added to the columns it should work well. Example: https://cl.ly/qgwZ
If you want to use the equal-height-content class you can but then you would add the class to each text box and the background on the textbox instead of the column.
If neither is working for you please share the URL so I can see what’s going on.
- AJ
Hi AJ,
Thanks for the quick response. I just updated the theme from 4.1 to 4.6.1 and also Wp Bakery to 5.4.7. But now column settings does not open completely. The popup appears but then it spins for ever. I deleted the plugin and tried to reinstall it but it would not load (Plenty of memory + execution time). Was able to install the plugin from version 4.6. But still column settings does not work.
Bruno
I figured this out. It was a plugin conflict.
Hi. I am trying to move the main navigation menu over to the right approx 200px. Any ideas?
Please share the URL so I can see how things are setup so I can suggest the right code, thanks!
Hello all,
I have a page of historical figures in a novel, where each row consists of two columns, on the left a picture of the person, on the right two text blocks, first the name, date of birth and death, then underneath a short bio. Here is a link to the screenshot: https://ibb.co/bGLM1c
Anyway, the important ting is that I have about 40 of these. So I designed the first row, and then cloned it. After cloning each row, I manually edit the photo and the two text elements on the right. There is probably a much more efficient way to do it (please let me know). But then I realized that it would look much better if I reduced the column gap between the photo and the text. I also wanted to experiment with row stretch and different fonts. Of course, since I have already defined the content for all these rows manually, if I make a change I like to one row, I have to manually make it to the other 39. Every time I make a change just to try a different look.
So my question is: is that unavoidable, or is there a way for stylistic changes in one row to be applied to all other rows quickly? Forgive the analogy, but like the format painter in Microsoft Office?
Thank you for your suggestions and please let me know if I should be building this differently from the start, as it seems to me that each row is populated by “fields”, photo, name DOB DOD, bio, which could populate a layout automatically, perhaps in a slider of some kind rather than a long scrolling page.
All suggestions welcome.
Thank you.
Hi again
I would highly recommend adding a custom post type instead for this – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/adding-custom-post-types/ – so each person would be it’s own post.
Then you can use the Post Types Grid to insert them like this – https://cl.ly/qeTt
Whenever you are dealing with recreating the same look over and over it’s good to use a post type for it. For example if you want to display 50 icon boxes for your business services you could instead create a post type to add the services then insert them with a grid.
More importantly if this is a client site it makes it a lot easier to edit any specific person by simply locating it in the backend without any need to edit the page with the builder.
And if you are using the Post Types Grid and you want to add custom “blocks/info” to the grid for each person you can use Custom fields (a lot of people like this plugin – https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/) then you can display them in the grid either using theme filters to hook into the grid. Example on how to add something under the title: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/add-content-total-grid-modules/
Or you can use the Advanced Grid builder – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/advanced-grid-builder/

I missed your answer yesterday. Thank you so much AJ. That’s a whole lot of WP learning in one chunk. Very grateful. I’m off to learn….
Hello all,
I need your advice (not a support question).
My media library is getting confusing. I tried WP Media Folder for a while but found it buggy. Would you please let me know if there is a reliable media organizer you could recommend?
Also, would there be a plugin you could recommend that would allow me to edit pictures both in the page editor and in the media library? I don’t need Photoshop (though that would be nice) but I would like to be able to create variant of an image at different resolutions and do some basic editing (crop in particular) in WP rather than outside it. I know the basic edits are available in the WP Media Library, but not to produce variants of an image (no save as…).
Thank you for your suggestions.
Hi,
This is AJ the theme developer.
I personally recommend the “Real Media Library” and I actually added integration in Total for it – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/real-media-library-integration/ – it is a premium plugin on CodeCanyon but I find it well coded and very easy to use.
To be honest I have no recommendations regarding image cropping/editing since I’ve never needed it and no other customer has asked this before. I tried doing some searching and couldn’t really find anything promising. I also looked through the WordPress code because there is the ability to save the image as a different size like this – https://cl.ly/qeqe – but there is no way of defining new settings via PHP since these settings are hardcoded – https://cl.ly/qed7
That said, looking at the code I see also that WordPress does save the different cropped variations (this way you can always revert back to the original) but these saved images can’t be seeing in the media library and I don’t know if there is any way to show those variations. It may be possible to hook into wp_save_image_file and use wp_insert_attachment to save the cropped image as a new attachment but I haven’t tested it out.
- AJ
That’s really useful AJ. There are some plugins for near full image editing for WP. It’s overkill so I’ll see how I get on. Real Media Library looks great. Thanks again for the recommendation, especially if it integrates with Total already.
I suppose there is no way to copy/paste all the formatting options of a row and contained elements (aka Format Painter° then? Probably more a question for WPBakery anyway; should I post on another forum for WPBakery questions?
Hi,
Thank you for your patience (I had to leave town and just got back – it’s not typical for me to do this).
In terms of copying the formatting of a row, you can by saving it as a template like this – https://cl.ly/qoAr
But depending what you are doing (like if it’s just colors and padding/margin) you can also just add a classname to your rows and then target them all with CSS this way it’s very easy to globally change them.
- AJ

Hello AJ, Thank you for the lovely theme. This is the first time I am writing to you since I have purchased this theme – never came across any issue, your theme is that good!
Now, this is the first time I am trying to use the Megamenu feature of the theme and have come across a roadblock. Probably you can help?
By default, I was able to setup the Megamenu as per instructions in your documentation. The issue I am facing is – this is how the menu is currently appearing: https://imgur.com/a/JQV8h – it’s a two-column menu and it is taking up the full width of the layout and is looking ugly especially for submenus with very few items.
I have tried and tried to my level best to change it via CSS – you can see my result in the link above. I was successful when using the dev tools in the browser but never on the live site – the CSS for the menu (added via Custom CSS) doesn’t apply at all on the site. Something is overwriting my CSS. Is it by design?
Could you help me out, please? Appreciate any assistance in this matter – Thanks!
Hi,
Awesome, I’m glad the theme has been working out well for you!
So by default the MegaMenu does expand all the way via javascript/CSS as this is how most megamenus work, but it’s very easy to change that
If you are using header style one you’ll need a little PHP to disable this: https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/snippets/disable-megamenu-js/
But it looks like you may be using header style 2 which just needs a little CSS. Example:
#site-navigation li.megamenu>ul.sub-menu {
width: 500px !important;
}
And just change the 500px value to the width you want.
How to add custom CSS: http://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/making-css-edits/
- AJ
Hey AJ,
Thank you for your super fast reply. That did it.
You were right, I am using header style 2. I just needed to add another line to adjust the margin and it’s set!
#site-navigation li.megamenu>ul.sub-menu {
width: 500px !important;
margin-left: 0 !important;
}
- Nick
AJ, we updated the theme today the latest version (v4.6.1) and came across this one.
On Mobile – selecting any menu – normal or alternative mobile menu in any style format (overlay/slide/toggle/etc) – the parent menu item is repeating itself under it. We even created a brand new menu with dummy items and assigned it to the mobile menu and it seems to be happening. Is it by design or a possible bug?
Here’s the screenshot to better understand what I am saying: https://imgur.com/49XGfgB & https://imgur.com/mKi4pv4
Thanks, NIck
Hi Nick,
Thank you for your patience (I had to leave town and just got back – it’s not typical for me to do this).
Regarding the mobile menu, this was done do to a high demand for customers wanting the entire menu item to be clickable so it could open the dropdown. However, if you have a link on the item if you click it and it opens the toggle it would never actually open the page since it’s used for the toggle therefore a new link is added below so you can always access that page.
This is a common way for sites to do this. However, I’m thinking of releasing 4.6.2 and instead what I’m going to do is have a function so if you click the item once it opens the toggle and if you click it twice it goes to the page, do you think that’s better? Please let me know your thoughts? I like to gather as much user feedback as possible when making these changes, thanks!
Typically sites won’t put links on the main item of a dropdown and instead you would have a “view all” at the end of the dropdown – https://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/docs/adding-non-clickable-menu-links/
- AJ
Hi AJ,
I was able to fix the repeating menu item issue using the “adding non-clickable” menu items.snippet shared by you.
I understand about the whole menu item being clickable for the menu toggle. However, you can have that optional – depending on whether the user needs it or not.
The repeating menu item sounds like a good idea but when a megamenu is used, it looks weird on mobiles.
Another suggestion:You can somehow build an option to customise or change the menu order for mobiles by extracting the same “Main Menu” and removing the multi-level menus. I know we can just create another mobile menu mobile menu locations but when we have a lot of menu items at multiple levels, it is a pain editing/adding/removing items from both menus.
Hi,
Thank you for the suggestions! I am actually working with the developer of this plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/quadmenu-divi/ – and they are creating a Total mega menu plugin that you can use for free on your site So that will be another good alternative, especially for people using the header builder function.
- AJ
Hey AJ,
How are you?
Weird, I didn’t get a notification for your reply. That’s great news that you are working with the developer of QuadMenu. Just checked it out, looks really cool. Do we have an ETA as to when we can expect it to be part of the Total package?
Thanks and keep up the great job! - Nick
Hi Nick,
I was working hard on releasing the latest Total update – http://wpexplorer-themes.com/total/changelog/ – that this did get pushed back a little bit but I hope to finish it up shortly.
More importantly I’m adding a new menu module to Total very soon, it’s going to be similar to the menu function from beaver builder – ultimatebeaver.com/modules/advanced-menu/ – which is another popular page builder. This will be released very soon!
- AJ
Hi Aj, how are you doing? hope you are good,
I have search for info in comments but I don’t really understand whats happening.
I did a footer with a logo in the center column, the original logo is 1000×1000, so it is very sharp. But it looks to big, so I set the image size to 150×150, but he image gets blury. Its something always happens to me when decreasing size from single image module…. How can I make the image smaller without loosing quality.
https://omadstudio.com/inicio/
Last question, I added some categories to 4 portfolio pages, so when I add porfolio grid, it shows Title and category on hover, but I dont want the category to be clickable, because it does not look very good if someone clicks on the category and opens a new page with the same content as the only one category. I also dont know how to edit the page that opens when you click on a category.

Thank you very much
Hi,
I am doing well, thank you! Nice to hear from you again
The image looks pretty sharp to me – https://cl.ly/qeid – however, whenever you resize any image it will loose a bit of quality since you are shrinking it (especially text). Unless you do it in Photoshop or whatever editor you are using.
To remove the links you would either use some CSS to disable clicking like this:
.overlay-cats-title-btm-v-cats a {
pointer-events: none;
}
Or copy the file from Total/partials/overlays/categories-title-bottom-visible.php to your child theme and set $show_links = true to $show_links = false on line 25.

ps: Total has it’s own “Image” module separate from the default Single Image module in the page builder and it’s a bit more optimized with a few more settings – just a heads up
hello i am using total theme in my blog khadijahtech.com. i want to use the following code tag to show source code to the user in the post:
[code language=”java”]
.... some code
[/code]
But this tag not applied correctly… why?
Hi,
WordPress doesn’t have any built-in code snippet functionality. You need to install a plugin for that such as this one – https://wordpress.org/plugins/syntaxhighlighter/

When you set a pageID for Top Bar content, must that be an actual page – or can I use the post ID from a custom post type?
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 )

Hello, my goal is to turn my WordPress theme and my Shopify theme into one store.
Here are my two sites (connected by Shop) https://www.thisdogslife.co/ https://shop.thisdogslife.co/I love, love your Noir theme. For my needs (allowing products in posts and driving to the ecommerce site) I think this would work. I do want to know, though, what are the different layouts for the Shop part. As you can see on my current shopping site, it is a long sales page on one page. Is that doable? Or would your Total Ultimate Drag & Drop work?
I probably would need someone to develop this, but after that, I would love to be able to manage on my own.
Is your themes user-friendly?
Thank you, Andrea
Hi Andrea,
Thank you for your interest in my themes. I have one very important question first…Are you looking to still use Shopify or do you want to convert to a WordPress shop plugin like WooCommerce? (the one used in these two themes you mentioned – New York and Total).
- AJ
Thanks! What I want is to for sure keep my Wordpress site (as I have 1,500 articles and I don’t think Shopify supports this). From my understanding, WP and Shopify can’t really work together. So, I was looking at WooCommerce and Wordpress.
But am worried about going to Woocommerce, as the customer support isn’t as immediate (no chats/phone calls). So, I want to make sure everything is user-friendly
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 AJ. I am trying to randomly load, from a list of Vimeo videos, one which will be used as the background of a full-height row.
This is the current page where i want to enable this – the current version is using the source defined in the Video tab of the row settings: https://www.stonecapital.pt/
I have also tried using the correct class (responsive-video-wrap) for the iframe with the Html module, but the resulting video is higher than the full-height row and also there are a few pixels on either side of the video showing the background.
I have tried a few possible solutions but it seems to me the full-height setting could be messing the results when i tried a pure html solution.
Any ideas? Thank you very much.
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?

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, I want to use “recent news” like here: http://bit.ly/2Gukyut But if the date is to the left of the box, the column becomes too wide. Is it possible to do something like this with css: http://bit.ly/2GxUoqQ
One more question. I read someone else asked for a hotspot module. Can you tell if you’ll do it and when? I urgently need a module that works well. If you plan it, I won’t buy it separately and I’ll wait.
Best regards
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!
