Hello I recently got the template and it’s nice. Anyway when I tried importing the dummy data it was only I importing hello world for the blog post so how do I get the other blog post..2) the page builder is not working for my WordPress how can you help me out

Hi,

Yes there is one post only and I don’t see why that can be a problem because on our demo we have 3 posts all 3 all the same – content is the same only the title is different.

We don’t use any page builder in Opta – all content is created using shortcodes, meta box. custom post types and templates. Maybe you are using some 3rd part plugins here, but by default there is no page builder.

Hello, I’ve just activated the theme, but when I attempt to install the required plugins, I get the following error:

Downloading installation package from http://demo.cocobasic.com/plugins/opta-wp/cocobasic-shortcode-1.1.zip…

Download failed. Not Found

I’m wondering how I can install the plugin…

No, I have not. I downloaded it when I saw it (in June) thinking it might come in handy when I (finally) got around to updating my portfolio. I was busy with client work (and then the holidays), so did not have a chance to start working on my own site, til now, which is apparently just past the most recent update.

If there is no way that I can acquire the plugin, I understand. I’ll use something else, I guess.

Sorry, that is how it is. I had moved for all my themes plugins inside the theme – not to get again in situation like this and all themes are updated in last 30 days.

You can try our other theme which is free this month (I must say I have look with picking my items for free one). It is Park WordPress and the plugin is inside the theme

Or you can buy Opta, of course.

Hi. I downloaded this theme today. When i try to instal this theme, it says:

Unpacking…

Installing theme…

Could not install package. The theme is missing the style.css style file.

Failed to install theme.

Where i can get this style.css?

Hi,

Try to download “Installable WordPress file only” and to upload that zip file. More info here: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/202821510-Theme-is-missing-the-style-css-stylesheet-error

Hi, it works, thanks :)

Hi! Your theme looks great but I see that it hasn’t been updated in a long time. I just want to know if it’s compatible with the latest wordpress?

thanks! really appreciate the quick response :)

oh sorry another question.. do you have a demo on how it will look like if we integrate woocommerce?

Sorry, no. I must say, I have not tested with woocommerce and probably it will load the default style from woocommerce (I have no idea how that will looks like).

And yes, probably you will have some work to do to make all that to look nice.

How can i change the footer height? it´s a lot of footer.

Amazing! It´s possible to have to sizes of logo one for PC and one for Mobile? Because in mobile looks wrong look at this: https://i.imgur.com/LmPfsTN.png Thanks a lot!!

I have updated the article (take a look on the end) – https://cocobasic.ticksy.com/article/10484/

sorry send again the print screen. http://i.imgur.com/LmPfsTN.png

Hello, really great work.. can i delete the arrow from the portfolio post https://i.imgur.com/SZ5kWhC.png

Hi, If you add code like this in CSS:

@media screen and (min-width: 1021px) {
.single-portfolio .content-wrapper {
    float: left;
    margin-left: 50px;
    width: calc(100% - 230px);
}
}

You will have something like this: https://imgur.com/a/VjDhsdG

Hope that is what you are asking for. If you have more questions, please use our support forum – https://cocobasic.ticksy.com/

Thank you.

another quick question, can i open the portfolio link “Portfolio_link_item_to” in same site page, instead of open in the different page

Yes, by default there is no a option to chose how to open a link (default is in new tab). That part can not be done with just CSS, you will need to change PHP files. Please use our support forum.

Hi. This is a super pretty template. Good job! I was wondering if it’s possible to add WooCommerce and use the setup/design as shop instead of Portfolio? If that makes sense

Hi, Thank you on kind words!

Sorry, at the moment there is no WooCommerce version. You can install it with Opta but you need to add a lot of CSS code to make it looks nice and to fit the current layout. Also, you need to add PHP part for “Load More” for WooCommerce items. In other words, there need to be a lot of changes to make it looks nice.

If we decide to include the WooCommerce, I will let you know.

Hello, thank you for the theme, I’ve used it well!

I have a question about the hover text in the homepage, is there a way to change the opacity of the white square to 50 or 70% so the image is not completely blocked?

Thank you!

Hi,

Use this CSS:

.portfolio-text-holder {
    background-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7);
}

Hello,

I’d like to ask if there is a way to sort the order of the portfolio posts? I’ve already published my portfolio posts and wanted to arrange the order so that the newest works are in the beginning of the portfolio.

Was wondering if there is a way to re-arrange in the dashboard or if I need to manually delete & add new posts (or if there is a way to duplicate portfolio pages?)

Thanks for your time! Cheers x

Hi,

Change date/time of publishing post to change the order – the latest published post is the first one.

Hi there, thank you so much for the theme, it is fantastic!

I have had some trouble with the coco basic & custom fields for the portfolio section. Whenever I add changes and update the custom field and then update the entire page, when it finishes, the changes I have made has disappeared, as well as when I preview the changes.

Looking forward to hearing back :)

Hi, Probably you are updating custom fields “manually” in section “Custom Fields” here – https://imgur.com/a/NicOhBx
and then click on “Update” and the fields are changed to the old values?

You need to use “Portfolio Preference” to set/update custom fields – https://imgur.com/a/o9ya4Qu
Why? Because, when you click on “Update”, the script is going through all “Portfolio Preference” fields and get and set a new values for custom fields. So, if you have set “manually” after click on “Update”, this script will override your values.

Of corse, if you need some new custom fields which are not in “Portfolio Preference” section, you can add them “manually” in Custom Fields section and this fields will not be overridden.

If this is not your case, please record me a video to see what is happening (probably I will need your admin access to check that).

Hi there, thank you so much! When i added custom fields manually I didn’t set the portfolio preference field, so that’s why the changes didn’t save. It works great now, thanks!

Hey! Loving the site!!

Is it possible to have a hero image for the home page? With full width featured image with the title overlay.

Oh and is it possible to change “portfolio” out of the permalink?

Hi, Thank you!

1. Sorry, hero image is not possible to add without a larger modification.

2. Maybe you can try to edit this permalink by using Yoast Seo Plugin – that plugin has a lot of options, I think you can “remove” portfolio with it (have not tested) https://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-seo/

hello, in the meantime, congratulations on the theme. I would like to ask you if there is a way to order the elements of the porfolio, so that I can show what I want to see first.

Hi,

Thank you! Yes, change the publishing time/date of portfolio item to change order. Latest published is the first one.

Hi,

I am working on customising the theme. Its really very clean & minimal and I love it. However, the default content for the home and blog are showing up, but for some reason, the display for the about, gallery and contact pages isn’t showing up. I imported all content as per the youtube tutorial. Kindly help.

Hi,

Important part is to first install required plugins and after that to import the demo content (not sure if this is in your case).

Try to import again demo content (or try on some temp installation) but probably you will get duplicated pages and it should all be there.

Hi, First of all thanks for the theme. When I’m trying to update any post wp-admin returns with 502 error. and below are the console errors which i’m getting.

Hi,

- Have you any additional plugins on your site? Try to disable them.
- Try to switch the theme to the default one (free WordPress theme) and to see if all works fine

I had never such type of error and it can be something with your server configuration (maybe I am wrong) and that is the reason why I am suggesting you also to try with some other theme

Thanks for your quick response. Well it has been sorted out by again installing wordpress + theme… Please let me know how to hide Search from menu bar? Thanks

For now only via CSS in Dashboard > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS

#header-main-menu .search-form {
    display: none !important;
}

Probably I will add “switcher” to turn on/off search field in some next update.

Hi, Coco, Thanks for your theme. Keep up the good work (y)

Thank you for kind words! Enjoy the theme.

When I try to upload the theme, it tells me that the theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. When I downloaded the theme, it was only a folder with a PDF for the manual and then the zip file provided. What am I doing wrong?

Hi,

You need to unzip that file and inside should be OptaWP>SITE>opta-wp.zip – that file is installation file which you need to upload ( opta-wp.zip )

Also, in OptaWP>DEMO CONTENT you will find xml file which you need to use for the demo content.

Nice design concept. GLWS

Thank you.

Nice theme, thank you!

My pleasure :) Enjoy the theme!

When I click the “install now” button. a message appears: The package could not be decompressed. The theme does not have style sheet style.css.

The installation of the theme has failed.

Probably you are trying to upload a wrong file. Unzip the file which you have downloaded and try to find folder SITE and inside it is opta-wp.zip – that zip file is installation file which you need to upload.
