Hi! I’m working on my site: http://www.innovaimagen.com/web/

Just update to the last version and found that custom css is not working on homepage (I mean the custom css tab inside the page). It works on other pages (please check the green borders) but not in homepage.

I’ll wait for your reply, congrats for the amazing theme!!

Hi Martonita,

Can you please disable Coming Soon mode first? We need to investigate your site and then get back to you if we have possible solution.

P.S: This problem should not happen on the version 1.8.1 of Kalium.

Kind Regards,

I’ve been trying to open your site for minutes, in many devices and browsers but without luck, are you having problems with the server?

Hello,

I love your theme, very well documented.

I’d like to narrow the content on my blog posts, it’s currently full width as you can see here : http://guillaumeladvie.com/ne-travaillez-jamais/

And I don’t find it very easy to read.

As you can imagine i’m not a coder…

Thank you for your help ! Guillaume

Glad to hear that Guillaume,

It would help us a lot if you could rate Kalium on ThemeForest from your Downloads tab, if you don’t know how just open this link :)

Hello,

I’m back on the same topic ! Following an update, this CSS code doesn’t work anymore.

Is it normal ? What kinf of code should I write to achieve the same result ?

Thank you very much Guillaume

Hi – really simple answer but I can’t figure it out – could you please explain in steps how I add a portfolio item to the static home page?

Hi there,

If you have followed the instructions Ylli wrote you then you have the elements in the homepage, now you just need to add the portfolio items because there is no portfolio to show. You can now add the portfolio items by going in the Admin > Portfolio > Add New and then set a title, description and an image then go to the homepage and you will see they have appeared.

Kind Regards,
Art

Well thanks, yes it works with the MASONRY PORTFOLIO but PORTFOLIO ITEMS dies not import anything – any suggestions ?

Hello, I had added this code to all my portfolio pages,

.image-slide.nivo.slick-slide { pointer-events: none; cursor: default; }

becouse I didn’t want the nivo slider to open big. And now I’ve updated the theme it does not work anymore. I’ve tried to modify the new options in the portfolio section at theme options but I can’t manage it.

Please, I need to stop nivo slider zooming when I click over the images.

Thank you!!

Hi Cecilia,

Can you please go to kalium/inc/ and change replace the file laborator_actions.php with this new one http://drops.laborator.co/12lcl+ and check if your problem is solved.

I think that i found a solution for this, and if this works for you too please write us.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Yes, it worked!! The css work now… the nivo lightbox doesn’t zoom anymore… Thank you!!

Hi cseguramora,

Glad to hear that :)

I bought Kalium and have uploaded it and demo content without difficulty. It seems to work okay. However, my host ‘Hostgator’ will not permit me to to increase max_execution_time above 30. My other php settings meet the Kalium specification.

I don’t want to invest many days making a beautiful Kalium site which is doomed to problems. As the initial installation seems to have worked do you think I will be okay or should I request a refund?

I’d really like to use the theme is I can but I can’t change my host.

Thank you.

Hi culigence

If you have imported demo content successfully, then you don’t need that max_execution_time to change.

It will work as normal theme and you will not have any issues.

The execution time variable is required just when you try to import the demo content files, which usually fails when this value is lower, but in your case seems just fine.


Arlind

Thank you. That is just what I wanted to hear!

Hi culigence,

Nothing, if you need further help, don’t worry, we are here to help just reply to this thread again :)

Best Regards,
Arlind

hello, I have a question.

not as kalium update the template.

Thanks greetings.

Thank you! Sorry :D

I forgot! It would be very important for the next update, the power to publish projects portfolio filtering by subcategory, ie, I can do a publication Elements portfolio only the subcategory: “Product desgin” without appearing the rest elements.

Thanks!

Hi Borjamauricioreus,

We will write this on our list, and if this feature is requested by many users we will try to implement it if that is possible from Wordpress.

Hi Laborator,

I’m trying to update Kalium Theme to the latest version via Envato Toolkit, but when I click on “update automatically” I receive this message: Warning: function_exists() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /web/htdocs/www.cooldesign.it/home/demo-server/castigliaassociati/wp-admin/includes/class-pclzip.php on line 1770

How can I solve?

Cheers.

Simone.

Hi Simone,

Glad to hear that, we will reply to your email soon.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Fast support, fast problem solving, quick reply… What to say… I love this theme! :)

Thank you Laborator!

Simone.

Hi Simone,

Hi, I really like the ‘quote’ template for single blog articles. However, on the blog homepage, I’d like a thumbnail of the Featured Image to show instead of the Quote. Could you please direct me to the template file & query that I need to modify? I’m comfortable with child themes and php. Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi there,

You can do that by un-ticking the Support for post formats in Laborator > Theme Options > Blog Settings, but then all of the post formats like audio, video and carousels will only display their featured image.

Kind Regards,
Art

Thanks, Art!

Hi angeh,

Glad to hear that :)

Hi Laborator,

First off, I’m building a site for a client of mine with the Kalium theme — I’m loving it so far! Very cool that you included the ability to write in SASS.

But while working on the site, I ran into something that I need your help on. I’m using the full-screen menu and utilizing the social network icons in the footer. However, I’ve removed the icon visuals and am just displaying the text from each social ink. This is working fine, but each social network name is followed by a period.

example: instagram. flickr. facebook.

What steps do I need to take in order to remove these periods? The site’s is being hosted locally on my computer for now, so I sadly can’t send you FTP information or login credentials.

Thanks! Brooks

Hi Brooks,

Download this file: http://drops.laborator.co/182ie+ and replace it in kalium/inc/ folder, then go to the editor and edit the functions.php file

add_action( 'lab_social_networks_name', 'remove_dot_from_social_network_name', 10, 2 );

function lab_social_networks_name( $name_full, $name ) {
    return $name;
}

Kind Regards,
Art

Hi again,

Instead of the link above, please download this file: http://drops.laborator.co/13csz+

The file above was buggy.

The custom css is not working in the new update 1.8.1 Im trying to get rid of the gap at the bottom of each page using this code:

.has-fixed-footer .wrapper { padding-bottom: 0px !important; }

It use to work but no longer :(

Hi intohype,

I can confirm that Custom CSS works very well.

Can you please write URL of this exact page here on comments first? We need to investigate your site and tell you the exact code.

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi intohype,

We have added a new option now, for the users who don’t want the bottom space.

Just go to that page where you want to remove bottom margins, and then follow this procedure below:

(view large version)

(view large version)

So to the section “No Bottom Margin” just click Yes and that row will not have bottom margins :)

P.S: I really like your site, it is looking great :)

Kind Regards,

Hi, There is a bug in the Comming Soon mode. No custom logo and tittle are showing see it here http://www.mavegap.com

Hi datinta,

Is this happening on Kalium 1.8.1 please?

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Hi. First of all thx for your great theme!

we are construction and architecture firm. we use your theme as our portfolio site. we want to use your carousel type portfolio but we have a question right there. with your carousel design photos is fixed along the width of page(so all the photos have the same width in carousel preview) but as you may predict we have lots of vertical(portrait) photos and renders. so we want to fix the carousel along with the height(all images will have same height) is it possible to do this?

thx in advance :)

again slick.js creates the divs. so maybe the slick slider devoloper has the answer for us :)

but still i couldnt find which code calls slick.js

here is a working code example

https://jsfiddle.net/9xkejLoy/

Hi Onuriskurt

If you want access slick slider files you have them in this location on your theme:

wp-content/themes/kalium/assets/js/slick/slick.min.js

There is also source code (unminified without .min extension).

I hope you will manage to fix it.


Arlind

Hi, we just launched our website but your logo keep showing when we scroll down the screen. Example: http://isabelamekitarian.com.br/ Any idea how to fix that? Thanks!

Hi webiwebi ,

That logo it’s on Revolution Slider settings, ou can learn how to remove that by seeing those images:

Click your slider Settings icon: (view large version)

Then remove this code from the “Custom JavaScript” area: (view large version)

Kind Regards,
—Ylli

after we did that , on mobile it is not showing any content anymore. Website: http://isabelamekitarian.com.br/

Hi webiwebi,

Can you please send us your WP credentials on email? We need to investigate your problem and then get back to you with possible solution.

Hi. I just bought your KALIUM theme for woocommerce. I want to use it for my shop, and I want it to look like this http://demo.kaliumtheme.com/shop/

How do I configure it to do that?

You just need to install Kalium Shop demo:

Please head on our documentation site Kalium Documentation.

Specially Getting Started section :)

And there you will find documentation with videos that will tell you how to install it’s Demo Content.

Hello,

I would like to know if it’s possible for people to subscribe to my blog? to receive an email when i post a new article? How do I need to do? Thank you for your help

Hi there,

To do that you’ll need a subscription plugin, I found something that you may be interested in.

Hi and thanks for a great theme!

I’m having problems with the Autotype function; the line breaks as the text is being typed.

- Is there any way I could make more conditional changes to the font size? - Could the typeface be replaced at a given window width?

My problem occurs on my home page new.stiann.no when the window is narrow. A solution would be for the font to be replaced by the Autotype seen on new.stiann.n/contact-4

Thank you in advance :) Stiann

Hi Stiann,

I’m sorry but i don’t thing that this is possible, maybe you can decrease your font size a little bit and this will not happen :)


Kind Regards,
—Ylli

Ok thanks Ylli :)

Glad to hear that :)

Hi, I’ve just received an update for Kalium, downloaded the files. How should I update the theme on my website: - upload the theme into separate folder? - upload it in the same folder? The website is running and I don’t want to change the look of pages.

Hi there,

The easiest way to update our themes is if you use Envato Toolkit. On this link How to update Themes and Plugins you can learn this easy step-by-step procedure :)

Kind Regards,
Art

Hello!

As woerdhvd said, if i use the border option, the go to top button doesn’t show.

Hi laker882

Now I have noticed this, so here is the quickfix for you:

Download: http://drops.laborator.co/1bxpV+

And replace it in kalium/assets/js/ folder. It will fix that issue.
