Hi! I have three questions about links in relation to Oshine and Tatsu functions:
1. I’ve used lots of Inline Text boxes, and added links in the paragraph on a couple of them, like this one: https://chris-loh.com/portfolio/aedas/ Is it possible to make these links open in a new browser window?
2. Is it possible to turn a Special Title (e.g. Style 6) into a link? And also make that link open in a new window? E.g. On this page: https://chris-loh.com/about-me/ I’m trying to get the title “Design Experience” to link to another page.
3. On that same About Me page, I’ve used the Short Code Editor for the links below the “Design Experience” title. I’m able to make them links, but again, I can’t seem to get them to open into a new browser. Here is the short code I used:
<h3 style="margin-left: 16px;"> [oshine_animated_anchor color="#666666" hover_color="#333333" border_color="#333333" href="https://chris-loh.com/design-experience/"] ARCHITECTURE [/oshine_animated_anchor]</h3>
Is there a way to edit the short code to make the link open in a new browser? I’ve tried adding target=”_blank” and it didn’t seem to work.
Hi,
1) Unfortunately you cannot make the text link open in a new tab in the inline text module, but however you can alternatively use the text box module make your link open in a new tab, to do so just add the link to your preferred word and click on the settings icon that appears on the link box, by doing this you will get a pop up box in there kindly check in the “Open link in new tab” check box and save your changes. You can check the screen shot in the link here- https://www.dropbox.com/s/f6uzoabzjqphiut/Screenshot%202018-07-17%2012.11.34.png?dl=0 , https://www.dropbox.com/s/y6nu6x446wztr7j/Screenshot%202018-07-17%2012.16.36.png?dl=0
2) Regarding the special title, it is not possible to change the special titles into a link.
3) In order to make them in a new tab kindly add ’ new_tab= “1” ’ after specifying your URL in the href attribute , for example -
<h3 style="margin-left: 16px;"> [oshine_animated_anchor color="#666666" hover_color="#333333" border_color="#333333" href="https://chris-loh.com/design-experience/" new_tab= "1" ] ARCHITECTURE [/oshine_animated_anchor]</h3>
Thanks, Varsha
Hi,
Thank You for a great theme! I got some problems I need advice for. I use wedding photographer theme and my site is here: www.patrickzilliacus.fi
First, when using Safari menus doesn`t work correctly. If you scroll down the menus start working.
Second, is there a way to keep the menu and the logo only at the front page?
Third, how can I make a white background for the menu and the logo instead of the fullscreen image?
Thank You a lot!
Hi,
Thanks for the kind words and I am really glad you like our theme 
1) Thank you for bringing this up. We will look into the issue and patch a fix for this in our upcoming updates.
2) You can use the BLANK page template in that specific page in which you wish not to have header menu and logo.
3) In order make a white background for the menu and the logo instead of the fullscreen image, kindly edit that page and in the edit page under the Oshine header her section meta tab set the “header background style” option as default.
Thanks, Varsha
Thank You for reply. I clarify my question: how can I make white background for the menu and the logo so that the menu and the logo would stay up when I scroll down?
And other thing: what is the best way to make a gallery of more than 200 photos? I made one using Tatsu “Single Page – Page Builder” but it took a lot of time and connection was slow. I got a waning to my MacBook Pro that the website was using too much power?! Do You have any tips how to make a gallery easier?
Thanks, Patrick
Hi Patrick,
The BG for the Header can be changed in the Options Panel under OSHINE OPTIONS > BACKGROUND. And to get the header stick to the top as you scroll the page, you need to enable STICKY HEADER option under OSHINE OPTIONS > TOP HEADER SETTINGS > HEADER STYLE.
We have several ways in which you can showcase you photos. You can display them as a grid of Gallery like – http://oshinewptheme.com/v17 or show them as a Carousel like – http://oshinewptheme.com/v2 . Both of these options have provision in which you can add all the images in one click. You can also enable Lazy Loading of Images to optimise your page’s load speeds. Let me know if you need further instructions.
Thanks, Pavithra
Hi Pavithra,
Thank You for reply. For some reason enabling STICKY HEADER option under OSHINE OPTIONS > TOP HEADER SETTINGS > HEADER STYLE won`t get the header stick to the top.
And is there a way to disable the logo and the top header when using mobile phone?
(www.patrickzilliacus.fi)
Thanks, Patrick
Hi Patrick,
I see that you have enabled “Sticky Sections” on your Home Page, in which case the Header (i.e the Menu and Logo) will stick to the Top of the page, irrespective of the Sticky Header setting. Just to get your original question right, do you NOT WANT the header to scroll as you scroll down the page?
Thanks, Pavithra
Using Oshine with WooCommerce face into problem that hyperlinks in the text on product description tab does not work. Is there any option/code and turns off navigation/opening URL?
Hi,
This issue was fixed in Oshine 6.0.4. Kindly ensure you have the latest version of the theme. The instructions to update the theme is present in this link from our knowledge base – http://www.brandexponents.com/oshine-knowledgebase/knowledge-base/update-theme/ .
Do let me know if the issue persists.
Thanks, Pavithra
Great support, beautiful theme. Thank you so much!
Hi,
Thank you for your kind words, Leon. I am really glad you like the theme and our service. 
Thanks, Varsha
hi, I am working on a website for a client and I cannot seem to change the font. I know you need the plugin type hub but when I search for the plugin nothing comes up.
Can you send me the link for type hub so I can download it and add to wordpress.
Thank you
Hi,
Kindly ensure the version of theme you have is 6.3 or higher to access the plugin. You will be prompted to install and activate the Typehub plugin in your dashboard. If you are unable to install the plugin via backend, you can do it manually. The plugin file is present in this path in the theme folder – oshin -> lib -> plugins -> typehub.zip.
Thanks, Pavithra
hi, thank you for your response back. I managed to get access to the plugin now it turns out it wasnt displaying in the dashboard area for some reason
Hi,
I like to have a different color for the blog title (link).
http://www.bdw.vlaanderen/screenshots/180715_screenshot_title_blog_post.jpg http://www.bdw.vlaanderen/bdwcast-aflevering-04/what custom css code can I use ?
Thanks, Antoine
Hi,
Kindly paste the code in the custom css setting under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS in order to have a different color for the blog title. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on.
.post-title a:visited {
color: YOUR COLOR !important;
}
.post-title a:link {
color: YOUR COLOR !important;
}
.post-title a:hover {
color: YOUR COLOR !important;
}

Hi,
Can you tell us your issue in a detailed manner with a relevant screen shot and the link to the page in which the issue occurs so that we can investigate further and help you accordingy.
Thanks, Varsha
I have somewhat technical question: I’m using a custom template for my home page, and I want to use a unique footer and header for this page.
I’ve added this code into my template:
if(is_front_page()) {
get_header('home');
} else {
get_header();
}
and created my own header-home.php file in my child theme. This is working. But I want to control which JS and CSS files are loaded just for this template, because it’s a completely custom/unique design which requires very little of the normal theme assets. How would I control which assets are loaded? Now that I have my own header just for this page/template I can easily control this. I want some things of course, like jQuery, as well as some mobile JS you have added like the classes .touch and .no-touch, which I’ll be using.
If this is beyond support I understand, but a little direction or guidance would be appreciated. I can see that many of the .js and .css files are loaded via the functions.php file, but how I would control which ones get loaded is the key here.
Hi,
We have adopted asynchronous loading of resources in the theme, which means the resource will load only if you use that particular component in that page. That is, the script for portfolio will be loaded only if you use the Portfolio Module in that page. So that should be handled straight away. If you see any unused script loading in your home page, kindly provide your credentials and further details via the contact form, so we can have our developers have a quick look at this.
Thanks, Pavihra
Hi Pavithra, there appears to be a major issue with the theme. It no longer inherits from the child theme. Your support team has all my login and FTP credentials, please look into this ASAP. From what I’m reading elsewhere on this comments section, other people are having issues too. Last month the parent theme was inheriting perfectly, it must have been one of your theme updates since then. I’m running the latest, v6.5.
Hi,
I have responded to your email about why the changes you made did not take effect.
Thanks, Pavithra
Thank you, I replied with some more issues.
I’ve just bought the theme and I’m getting oshine core ajax error
Hi,
Kindly check the PHP version in your server and please ensure it is PHP 5.4 or above. I think you may using an old version of php which is causing this problem. If issue still persists kindly email your URL, wp-admin id and password via the private message form in the support tab, so I can investigate further.
Thanks, Varsha
Hi All, how can i i deactivate all the comments in my site
Hi,
The option to ’Display Comments on Pages’ on pages is given under OSHINE OPTIONS > GLOBAL SITE LAYOUT AND SETTINGS . You have to disable this setting to hide comments in the pages.
Thanks, Varsha
Hello,
Is it possible to change the breadcrumbs on the blog page ? I like to change the word ‘Blog’ also in ‘News/Events’
View this screenshot : http://www.adeas.nl/screenshots/screenshot_customize_blog_02.jpg
Thanks, Antoine
Hi,
Regarding the changes in breadcrumb kindly follow the below steps
1. Navigate in your site setup in the folder WP-CONTENT > THEMES > OSHINE > FUNCTIONS> and in there kindly copy the “helpers.php” file 2. Now in the folder path WP-CONTENT > THEMES > OSHINE_CHILD > and kindly create a new folder and paste the copied “helpers.php” file. 3. Now open the helpers.php file in that is pasted in the oshine child and in the editor find for ‘get_be_themes_breadcrumb’ and in this section under the ” if ( is_home() )” kindly change the “output” name from Blog to News and save the changes. 4. After changing the name now install and activate the oshine child theme to your wordpress account.
If you have difficulties with this kindly share with me your ftp hostname and ftp credentials via the private message form in the support tab so so that i can do the necessary changes for you.
Thanks, Varsha
One more question: At the bottom of blog posts, how do I control which social media links appear for sharing? I could use CSS to remove some of them, but it’s cleaner to just remove the code and migrate the edited file to the child theme.
Thanks.
Hi,
To remove the social media icons from, you need to make a copy of ‘be_get_share_button’ function that is present in theme within ‘functions > common-helpers.php’ folder in your child theme and remove the unwanted Icon’s code from that function.
Thanks, Pavithra
I commented out the social icons I didn’t want in the common-helpers.php file in the functions folder. Added that folder and file to the child theme. Did a hard refresh (CTRL + SHIFT + R) in Chrome and still all the social icons are appearing and are still linked. And I commented out the entire $output for that social icon/link in both the if and else parts the function. Any idea why the child theme isn’t overriding the parent theme?
I haven’t heard back from you regarding the fact that neither of your methods worked. It seems there is an issue with your theme not being properly overridden by the child theme. Please help me resolve this, it has been 5 days now.
Hi,
It is likely that you may have missed something in your execution and we can help you get this fixed. Kindly email your FTP details and Dashboard Admin details so we can investigate this further.
Thanks, Pavithra
I am still waiting to hear back from you regarding several issues. I replied via the support email chain. I am unable to use Tatsu right now as it appears to be having issues, which is major and needs to be addressed. And trying to add a custom portfolio template from the child theme does not work, so please look into this as well. This delay is seriously impacting my workflow, especially the bug I am experiencing in Tatsu, please respond ASAP. Thanks.
Hi there,
I’m using Visual Composer (for my client’s sake as it’s easy for her to use), to build a simple blog post layout. I initially created the post layout in a portfolio item, but decided for several reasons to build the layout as a blog post. There is a row setting in VC that allows the stretching of the row and content so that it spans the full width of the browser, this can be useful to break out of the width constraints of the page template.
The issue:
Here’s the portfolio item: http://spacedoutspace.wpengine.com/gallery/jamlu-of-malana/
Here’s the blog post: http://spacedoutspace.wpengine.com/jamlu-of-malana/
The blog post’s top banner image should be stretched to fill the browser, just like the portfolio item, but for some reason this VC row setting doesn’t work in a blog post.
Before you tell me to just use the built in Featured Image settings you have in your theme, I tried those but on smaller devices the featured image gets cropped, and my client wants the image to remain full width without cropping, so for that reason I’m using VC’s row settings to stretch the content of that row, instead of using your featured image settings.
Help appreciated.
Cheers, Zach
Hi Zach,
The reason the featured Image in the Single Post Page does not stretch is most likely because the Blog Thumbnail is cropped to 1160px . We can try removing this size definition in your site and regenerating the thumbnails once again. Kindly provide your site Admin and FTP details using the contact form in the Support Tab so we can fix this issue.
Thanks, Pavithra
Just to confirm I am NOT using the Oshin theme post featured image, I am using Visual Composer page builder to essentially build and style my own featured image. And the row setting which makes the row and content stretch isn’t working on posts but is working in pages and portfolio items. I can probably do it myself, just tell me which file and I’ll update it and use Regenerate Thumbnails. Do I give the blog thumbnail a higher width or use responsive values like % or vw? With a little direction and the correct file I’m sure I can do it easily myself.
Thanks.
Once again after copying the add_image_size function from the parent functions.php file to the child functions.php file, and changing the blog-image from 1160 to 1650, on the Regenerate Thumbnails page in the backend blog-image still said 1160. So why are the files/functions in the child theme NOT overriding the parent theme? Isn’t this standard practice?
Anyway, for now I edited the parent theme’s functions.php file and changed 1160 to 1650, then regenerated the necessary thumbnail. When I hard refresh on the frontend the image is still not spanning the width of the screen: http://spacedoutspace.wpengine.com/jamlu-of-malana/
Please look into this for me immediately if you can, I’m in a rush to finish this project and these little things are holding me up.
Hi,
Apologies about the delay in my response. Yes I can check why this code is not taking effect on your site. Could you kindly email your Wordpress Dashboard details and FTP details, using the contact form in the Support Tab so we can investigate this and assist you appropriately?
Thanks, Pavithra
I’m interest in using a Pinterest Auto Poster (there are a few out there) that automatically posts images in a Post to Pinterest. Has anybody found a plugin that works with Oshine? I am looking at “Pinterest Automatic Pin Wordpress Plugin” but am fearful that its not compatible with Tatsu. Any ideas?
Hi! I’m trying to configure the Left Header Settings in Strip Style, but the color and width changes are not showing in the site. ¿Does anyone have issues with it? Thanks in advance!
Hi,
We have not faced this issue so far, but however we can help you with this. Kindly email your URL, wp-admin id and password via the private message form in the support tab, so I can investigate further.
Thanks, Varsha
Thanks!
Hello, I want to change the line color when you hover over the two links in my main header (About and work) here: http://www.allisonrodrigue.com/
But I do not want the words to change color. How do I do this?
Thanks!
Hi,
Kindly paste the code in the custom css setting under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS in order to change the color of the bottom line alone. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on.
.be-nav-link-effect-2 a::after {
background-color: (YOUR COLOR) !important;
}
Thanks, Varsha
I did that and ensured cache is turned off but the line didn’t change color. Any idea on why?
Hi,
Ensure that you have not pasted the code along with the ’ pre ’ tags and the brackets. If the issue still persists, Kindly email your URL, wp-admin id, and password via the private message form in the support tab, so I can investigate further.

Hi, Swami: I downloaded Oshine package 6.4.9. Installing Oshine (not the “child”), I get the following error for several of the plug-ins: “Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.”
I searched the Oshine help “comments” and found that this seems to be an ongoing issue
. I’d like your help, but I am reluctant to give you my site details (nothing personal).
Is it possible to remedy this problem myself (I’m a long-time customer by the way)?
Hi,
This is not a known issue and we are not able to replicate this error at our end , but however you can install the plugins manually by navigating to PLUGINS > ADD NEW. You can find the plugin files in the folder path – OSHIN > LIB > PLUGINS.
Thanks, Varsha
Hi there. Love the Oshine theme and the simplicity of Tatsu builder!
The only thing I’m having trouble with is make a Footer widget that has a couple of social media icons and a button below them – all aligned to the right. Can anyone help with the code for that? How can I grab the shortcode for social media icons in a row or a button and make them align right? Seemingly simple but tearing hair out. Thanks for any help! Rich
Hi,
Thanks for the kind words and I am really glad you like our theme. To generate a button shortcode or a icon shortcode you can create a page in TATSU and add the icons and button module in the page , if you want your icons and button to be aligned right side you can choose the icon group module and in the group settings you have to set the alignment to be right and then just copy this module so the shortcode gets added to your clipboard and then Paste the copied shortcode in the text widget under APPEARANCES -> WIDGETS -> FOOTER WIDGET AREA . If you need the exact code then contact us at help@brandexponents.com so that we will generate the code and give you.
Thanks, Varsha
Hi! I (accidentally) installed the TypeHub Plugin, and now the Categories on my Portfolio Grid thumbnail are the wrong font weight (should be 200).
After the installation, the font weight of both the Title and Category on the Portfolio Grid thumbnail were changed to 400. I managed to find where to change the Title to 200, but I can’t seem to change the Category font weight.
Here’s the site in question: https://chris-loh.com/
Is it possible to fix this?
Cheers, Chris
Hi,
Installing the type hub plugin does not change the previous settings or values. The texts in the portfolio categories by default takes the values that you have set for the “body fonts”. But however if you would like to change the font-weight of only the portfolio category text alone, Kindly paste the code in the custom css setting under OSHINE OPTIONS > GENERAL SETTINGS. Kindly ensure that Options Panel cache is NOT turned on.
.thumb-title-wrap .portfolio-item-cats {
font-weight: (YOUR VALUE);
}
Thanks, Varsha
Thank you, Varsha! I’ve figured out something else for now but I’ll use that if decide to change it back to what I had : )
Hi,
The address (location) from our company ‘Adeas’ is visible as a marker on Google maps but not visible on Google Maps in Tatsu.
http://www.adeas.nl/demo/contact/Is there a solution to solve this ?
Thanks, Antoine
Hi,
When I tried to edit your contact page with Tatsu the google map was still visible in the TATSU page builder, have attached screen shot here – https://www.dropbox.com/s/yl9myx9f3sjjm2a/Screenshot%202018-07-10%2018.32.04.png?dl=0 . Have you been able to fix this already? Do let me know if I am overlooking something here.
Thanks,Varsha
Hi Varsha,
There is a difference between Google Maps and the Google Maps within Tatsu. I explain it with a screenshot : http://www.adeas.nl/screenshots/screenshot_google_maps.jpg
Hi,
I see that you are using a custom pin in your Maps in TATSU. Could you kindly check if removing the custom pin fixes the issue. Do let me know if the problem persists, in which case I have to log into your site to investigate this further.
Thanks, Pavithra
No there is no difference, Yes you may login .. do you sttill have the details ?
Hi,
Yes I had the details. I tried adding the address directly instead of the Lattitude and Longitude. But the issue seems to occur as there are 2 places having the same address as per Google – “Telengy Management & Advies” and “Adeas BV” . Please refer the links below -
https://www.google.co.in/search?q=telengy+management+%26+advies&oq=Telengy+Management+%26+Advies&aqs=chrome.0.0l3.373j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8and
https://www.google.co.in/search?ei=doBRW6j4JZSA9QPfmKioCA&q=Adeas+BV&oq=Adeas+BV&gs_l=psy-ab.3..0i22i30k1l2.45309.65807.0.66152.4.4.0.0.0.0.128.427.2j2.4.0....0...1.1j2.64.psy-ab..0.4.426...0j0i10k1j0i22i10i30k1.0.c2EFTojJ5dIThis is why the coordinates are showing up Telengy Management & Advies when you add the Map in your page.
Kindly verify the address and coordinates and that should fix the issues.
Thanks, Pavithra
