Hi
How can I activate the Slider Revolution, since in the Documentation its written: Vela includes a license for Slider Revolution by ThemePunch.
I tried the purchasecode of the whole Vela Template but this did not work.
Do I have to buy the Revolution Slider myself?
Regards Riad
You can normally use the Slider Revolution plugin without activating the purchase code. That option is only available for user who has purchased that plugin individually, it’s to enable the automatic update feature.
There may be plugin conflicts on your site, you may need to deactivate plugins one by one to find the problematic plugin.
If it doesn’t work, you may need to send me your WordPress admin login details so I can take a look. You can send a private message in the contact form below:
https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contactI have deactivated all the plugins and the problem still exists. I have not done much custom editing so I’m don’t think the problem should be too difficult to fix. I have sent you the login credentials on the contact form. Thanks
I contacted Themepunch and they directed me to this error: uncaught exception: InvalidValueError: wyde.page.initMaps is not a function
I turned off the AJAX page transitions and the problem went away. Would like an actual fix though. Thanks
Also how could I add a custom page loader animation? thanks
Sorry for the delayed response!
1 – The sliders are not showing up because you’ve enabled the “Insert JavaScript into Footer” under Slider Revolution -> Global Settings. If the AJAX Page Transitions is enabled, you may need to disable that option.
Regarding the error ‘uncaught exception: InvalidValueError: wyde.page.initMaps is not a function’, it occurs because the Autoptimize plugin combined all JavaScript files into one. This makes some scripts couldn’t work properly. When using that plugin, you may need to disable the “Aggregate JS-files” under Settings -> Autoptimize -> JavaScript Options to work around this.
However, if you’d like to minify and combine JS and CSS files, I recommend using W3 Total Cache plugin instead. We use this one and everything is working well on our demo site.
Anyway, I just did all above for you so it seems to work now.
2 – You may need to put the snippet below to functions.php in your child theme to replace the loader animation with custom image:
function vela_get_page_loader( $loader ){
$loader = '<img src="https://www.google.com/images/branding/googlelogo/2x/googlelogo_color_272x92dp.png" />';
return $loader;
}
add_filter('vela_page_loader', 'vela_get_page_loader');
You will need to replace the image url with yours.
There are 2 ways to achieve this:
1. You may need to add that code to the bottom of the post content instead of the top.
2. Set custom excerpt for each post. You can find more details on how to set custom excerpt in the link below:
https://wpshout.com/quick-guides/set-custom-post-excerpt-in-wordpress/hi, i use VELA template on page from 2015, now i don see Visual Builder on Pages in Backend Editor… only can edit page in Front End VB editor, VB code is visible in classic mode in page editor. Now use Version 2.0.4, but dont know why i have this bug
If you’re using Vela 2.0.4, you should have WPBakery Page Builder 5.4.5, this version is working well on our demo site.
If you couldn’t switch from Classic mode to the Backend Editor, there may be plugin conflicts on your site. Try to deactivate other plugins to see if it works.
If it still doesn’t work, you may need to send me your WordPress admin login in the contact form below:
https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contactpass was sended, thx for check and help
Thank you for the login details!
This is a PHP compatibility issue. The WPBakery Page plugin that’s included in the Vela theme is not compatible with PHP 7.2.
Thank you for reporting this issue, we will add the latest update of that plugin to the next update of the theme.
In the meantime, you may need to downgrade your server PHP to 7.1 or lower to work around this.
WOW, works fine now, thanks for help 
BEST TEAM EVER
You’re welcome
Hello, We have been using your theme since 2015. http://innovationsineyecare.com The version we have is 1.0, I’ve noticed a few things have started to cease functioning on our current version with links that are at least from my understanding pointing to the correct location but they are not opening properly. And the header on our services page is not centering even though the look of every other page header is perfect. Is this something we will have to purchase again? (the download payment link)
Hello,
We recommend updating the theme to make sure it will work properly with the new update of WordPress and other plugins.
You may need to download “All files & documentation” of the Vela theme from the Downloads tab on ThemeForest.
After you extract the zip file, you will find the latest update of the theme and other package contents. You will see the instructions on how to update the theme in our documentation.
Hi, my client purhcased vela theme to use on their website and collection sort in shopify is not working but it’s working on shopify store theme.
Here’s our website https://www.sisterandsoul.com.au/collections/all-products.
Collection sort like this link https://www.sisterandsoul.com.au/collections/bracelets?sort_by=title-ascending using “sort_by=title-ascending” is not working.
If you notice https://www.sisterandsoul.com.au/collections/bracelets?sort_by=title-ascending and https://www.sisterandsoul.com.au/collections/bracelets?sort_by=best-selling must not have the same product order because the other is “sort_by=title-ascending” and the other one is “sort_by=best-selling” you can try other sort but they will not work also.
Thank you!
It seems like you’re writing in a wrong product page. This is a Vela theme for WordPress and the site you provided is not using our theme.
I’m noticing as I’m writing articles and adding images that PNG images are not able to be previewed when clicked (media file). They only link to the attachment page. I was wondering if this was changeable or if I’d just have to work around by creating JPGs instead. Thanks!
Actually, it should work exactly the same as JPG and other image types. Would you mind giving me the link of that page so I can take a look?
Looks like you’re using default image gallery from WordPress, it seems like the lightbox from that gallery doesn’t support PNG images.
We would recommend using the Image Gallery element from the theme instead. You can choose “Open prettyPhoto” for the “On click action” setting so it will open the image in the lightbox when you click on an image, it also looks better than the lightbox from default WordPress’s gallery.
To add an Image Gallery element, you may need to build the post by using the WPBakery Page Builder. If it is not enable there, you will need to enable it under WPBakery Page Builder -> Role Manager, choose “Custom” for Post types and select “post”.
This works and is exactly what I was looking for, makes my articles a little more cohesive. Thanks!
Glad to hear that it works
Hello,
I would like to know one detail before purchasing this template: When using this template in wordpress, what is the best method to manage the content of the wesbite (Add/Edit/Delete content)? In other way, if a non-dev person needs to manage the content continuously, how will he/she do this? Awaiting your reply.
Best Regards, Chady Mezher
Hello,
Thank you for your interest in our theme!
You can manage the content from your WordPress admin page. This theme includes the WPBakery Page Builder plugin, it’s easy to use drag and drop page builder that will help you to create and edit any content and layout, no coding skills required. Also for the users who will manage your site in the future, they can use the page builder easily without coding.
Hi! Love your theme. However, we are having an issue with Ninja forms displaying on the page. They sometimes work and then don’t work and it’s costing our company money because no one can sign up. We used the ninja element but then changed it to raw html element and added shortcode. Thought it was fixed but another person emailed saying no form on this page. I think it happens with mobile only – not on the computer.
Pages with forms:
http://www.buzzboxpr.com/one http://www.buzzboxpr.com/four http://www.buzzboxpr.com/sixThank you so much for helping – hope to hear back soon.
Hi, we please need a reply to fix this matter. The forms work for me but our customers are not seeing the forms on the web page. This means they cannot sign up which means we don’t earn money. Please help. Is this the only support you offer through comments? Appreciate it.
It’s most likely a problem with AJAX Page. The Ninja Form plugin is not compatible with the AJAX Page feature from this theme. You may need to disable the AJAX Page Transitions under Theme Options -> Page -> AJAX Options to work around this.
Hi,
I downloaded the new version. How can I update the theme? I have a hosted website, so no acces to files.
I cannot update from wp-admin. Correct?
We provided 3 methods to manually update the theme in our documentation. If you couldn’t access FTP or web file manager on your host, you can update it via WordPress admin.
However, we would recommend using the Envato Market plugin to enable the automatic update feature so you can download and install the new update under Appearance -> Themes on your WordPress admin.
You can find the instructions and more details on how to update the theme in our documentation.
Hello,
I am loving the Vela theme. However I am not able to customise it to my requirements. I am using XAMPP for the initial customisation before transferring it to my hosting server. There are 2 things that I need help with: 1. I have installed the theme and the demo content zip files through the plug-in section of the dashboard. I get this page after importing the Business demo page – https://imgur.com/tVbCxWJ
2. Is there a way that I can disable the Blog? I would like to have a clean single page business consulting website, hence I do not want a link to the blog in the Menu.
Thank you
Hello,
Thank you for choosing our theme!
1. It’s most likely a server configuration issue. Please ensure that you’ve installed and enabled the “rewrite_module” on your web server. If it is enabled but still doesn’t work, it might be an issue with the .htaccess file permission. Make sure that the .htaccess file on your web server is writable. You can find more details in the link below: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-posts-returning-404-error/
2. You can remove the Blog menu under Appearance -> Menus, choose Primary Menu to edit, then remove the Blog page from the menu.
Hello, I have just updated Vela Theme to the last version, and I got some problems:
1 – The menu “Casos de Sucesso” with two submenus, remain “orange” even withou being clicked: http://viking-tech.com.br/
2 – For months ago I had a visual problem in blog posts page, once I preferred hide posts title area. In other words, the problem is: header overlaps the post content area. You said that in next version It would be fixed, but It doesn’t happen, look a post example: https://viking-tech.com.br/o-conceito-da-energia-solar/
1 – By default, WordPress automatically adds a CSS class name to the current page in the menu so they will have different color (orange in your site) from other pages. Two submenus “Projetos” and “Depoimentos” in the menu “Casos de Sucesso” point to the front page, the same as the “Início” page. So, when you’re on the “Início” page, those submenus and parent menu are also “orange”. You should add those submenus to the “Início” page since they all are the same page.
2 – We’re sorry, the new update of the Vela theme hasn’t been released yet. This issue will be fixed in the Vela 2.0.5 but the latest update that you’re using is 2.0.4. We will release it ASAP!
Regarding “2”, ok. But regarding “1” I confess did not understand. You gave me a tip (6 days ago) on how to add submenus to the front page so I am able to point both of the pages to the front page instead move to another page – It worked perfectly. Before I update to 2.0.4, Menu wasn’t orange by default. So, How to keep submenu pages pointed to the frontpage without set orange color?
It follows last post yours:
“Unfortunately, only the page from the top level menu items will be added to the front page, the submenu won’t be.
To archive this:
1. Edit the Add the page “Casos de Sucesso” to add a Testimonials section to the bottom of the page, so it will display on the front page too.
2. Set the Row ID for the row container of the Testimonials section, for instance, depoimentos.
3. In Appearance -> Menus, remove the page “Depoimentos” from the submenu, then add a Custom Links menu instead. Set the URL to: https://viking-tech.com.br/#depoimentos and the Link Text to: Depoimentos When you click on that submenu, it will bring you to the section “Depoimentos” on the front page instead of another page.”Yes, I provided that tip but you should group the submenus from the same page to the same menu. In this case, the submenus “Projetos” and “Depoimentos” are in the page “Início”, so you should add them as the submenus of the menu “Início” instead of “Casos de Sucesso”.
Because they all are the same page, when you visit one of them, all menus will be active. This is exactly how WordPress works, I have no idea why you say it doesn’t happen before updating the theme but this is not a theme functionality but it’s a built-in WordPress feature, as you can see in the section “Default Menu Styles” in the link below:
https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-themes/default-wordpress-generated-css-cheat-sheet-for-beginners/Hi Wyde,
I have installed new wordpress and theme vela. Imported demo content, and I got this error while updating the theme options: http://prntscr.com/kppf25All plugins is updated.
I followed also the max limit based on your documentation: http://prntscr.com/kppftjPlease help.
Thank you!
If you have any other plugins on your site, try to deactivate them to see if it works.
If this doesn’t work, try checking the PHP limits by using the PHP Settings plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/php-settings/
Updating the max limits in the .htaccess file might not work on some web hosting, you may need to check it by using the plugin above. If the settings haven’t been changed yet, you will need to change them in that plugin.
Hope this helps!
I love you, Wyde. <3
Hi Wyde,
I updated the page, but if I made changes, im directed to error 404 page.
http://prntscr.com/kqduef
Please help
Try updating the permalink settings to clear the permalink caches on your site to see if it works. Go to Settings -> Permalinks, click on “Save Changes”.
If it doesn’t work, it might be an issue with .htaccess file permission. Please ensure that the .htaccess file on your web server is writable. You can find more details here: https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-fix-wordpress-posts-returning-404-error/
Hello, How to add a subitem new page (such as testimonials bellow customers) in menus configuration, without loosing “one page navigation”. Currently when I do that, once you click in “testimonials”, user is redirected to another page, I would like remained in the same page.
Hello,
If you’re using one page site, all pages from the primary menu will be added to the front page as one page. You may need to add Testimonials element to a page, then add that page to the primary menu so it will bring you to the Testimonials section on the same page when you click on that menu.
If this doesn’t work, you may need to give me your site URL so I can take a look.
In fact, if I set the page in the primary menu, It is added to the front page, however, I want Testimonials be a subitem of a specific page (already added to the front page), and like this it doesn’t work, in other words, when you click on the subitem of a primary menu page It moves to other page instead the front one.
Look what I mean: https://viking-tech.com.br/ > Casos de Sucesso > Depoimentos (I would like this subitem brings user to the frontpage).
Unfortunately, only the page from the top level menu items will be added to the front page, the submenu won’t be.
To archive this:
1. Edit the Add the page “Casos de Sucesso” to add a Testimonials section to the bottom of the page, so it will display on the front page too.
2. Set the Row ID for the row container of the Testimonials section, for instance, depoimentos.
3. In Appearance -> Menus, remove the page “Depoimentos” from the submenu, then add a Custom Links menu instead. Set the URL to:https://viking-tech.com.br/#depoimentosand the Link Text to:
Depoimentos
When you click on that submenu, it will bring you to the section “Depoimentos” on the front page instead of another page.
The workaround worked! Thank you.
Good afternoon, I use your wonderful template. My site www.mediafetish.kz But the site is slow, especially on mobile devices. Could you please tell me why. And how can this be remedied?
In advance thanks for the answer.
Hello,
We would recommend using a cache plugin. We’re using W3 Total Cache plugin on our demo site to compress resource files.
Also, you may use a CDN like cloudflare.com to cache resource files from your site, this can reduce the download times and improve your web server performance.
Hope this helps!
Whether this theme support wpml plugin…
We’ve tried it with this theme and it seems to work well. However, we couldn’t confirm that everything will work smoothly because it is not currently included in the plugins support list.
Hi,
Thanks for your wonderful theme! I would like to keep my title height size for my pages only as high as in your demo (https://wydethemes.com/vela1/our-services/ = small <=> vs https://wydethemes.com/vela1/our-services-2/ has a bigger height size).
How can I change this?
On the page “Our Services 2” ( https://wydethemes.com/vela1/our-services-2/ ), it has a bigger title area because we build custom page title instead of using default page title.
In this theme, it comes with only one size of the page title. If you’d like it bigger, you will need to create custom page title.
Here’s a quick tip:
1. Hide the page title area for that page in Vela Options -> .
2. Add a new row to the top of the page, add a Custom Heading and text.
3. Set the background image or video.
By using the page builder, you can add any content into the page title, set the background image and video and change the height of the row by adding an Empty Space so you will get the title area as your needs.
Works perfect, thanks!

Thank you for choosing our theme!
1) That image is in a slider, you can edit it in Slider Revolution screen on your WordPress admin, select the slider named “Vela 1” to edit.
On the slider edit screen, select “Source Settings” in the Main Background tab to edit the background image, you can find the instructions on how to edit the slide background in the link below:
https://www.themepunch.com/revslider-doc/main-background/#image-sourcesettings
.info-box:hover .icon-wrapper {
background-color: #ccf36a;
border-color: #ccf36a;
}
thanks for answering my message, but in the help you gave me the problem was not solved
1) in the first requirement I did not know how to explain it well, here I show you an image so you can understand me better https://bit.ly/2NDcdI9, what I need you to help me is to put what is on top of the slideshow

I hope you can help me
Thanks in advance
1) My bad! I thought that you’d like to change the banner image in the slideshow.
Anyway, you can change the header menu logo in Theme Options -> Header -> Logo.
2) Try the step-by-step guide below to see if it works:
1. In the Info Box settings, change the Color to #ccf36a (color when you hover).
2. Add CSS snippet below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS:
.info-box .icon-wrapper,
.info-box .icon-wrapper:before,
.info-box .icon-wrapper:after {
border-color: #2a3962 !important;
color: #2a3962 !important;
}
.info-box:hover .icon-wrapper {
color: #fff !important;
}
thank you very much, now the hover effect works with the desired color
Glad to hear that it works

Seems that scrolling doesn’t function in Chrome Version 67.0.3396.99 (Official Build) (64-bit).
We’ve also been losing segments such as our entire Contact page, and random elements on, in fact, we don’t have any access to the wp-admin page due to a 500 Error.
Any idea what’s going on?
That is a jQuery ScrollTo issue on Chrome, it has been fixed in the Vela 2.0 that was released since September 28, 2017 as you can see in the changelog below:
http://wydethemes.com/vela/changelog.txt?v=2.0.4You will need to update the theme and all bundled plugins to fix it.
Regarding the error 500 on your admin page, try to update your WordPress site and all plugins to see if it works.
