It says that Porto is 100% compatible with WPML but i setup a page where i used several Porto elements and none of these was translatable using the wpml editor. So i then translated it manually and then when i did a string search / update using wpml all translations was set back to standard lang. So as far as i can see the porto elements is not translatable using wpml editor.
Hi,
Sorry to say that but you have to translate all the plugins language files as well, because many of the Porto elements are coming from WP Bakery and Porto Functionality plugins so those strings are not translated until you won’t translate the plugins language files. If you do not mind can you please contact us through our support system with your site WP and FTP Login details and also provide us the screenshots of the strings those are not translated using WPML so we will check it for you and provide you the solution for that.
Thanks.
Sorry but i think you misunderstand. All theme and plugin textstrings is easy to translate using WPML string translations, works just fine.
What i mean is porto shortcode elements. If you build a page ie. an About Us page using wp bakery elements these are easy translatable but if you use porto elements like Porto Headings it is not translatable using WPML editor.
But i solved problem by switch off WPML editor for post and pages and translate manually in standard editor.
Hi,
Sounds Great! that you have solved the issue by yourself.
Thanks for contacting us.
Have a great day 
Hi,
Please look at this photos at the first.
http://kiwonuhm.iwinv.net/wp/test001/The side menu bar has 7 column for now but I have 10 categories. If I expand to 10, I wonder that how the layout would be changed.
Is it flexible layout or fixed? I guess it is related with right banner
Thanks
Hi,
First of all thanks for showing your interest in Porto WordPress.
You are very right, it is flexible layout and the sidebar expands with the right banner. but the sidebar you are referring to is not the categories but it is the sidebar menu set from Theme Option. So you can add as many menu items as you can also including Categories as well.
Thanks.
Just purchased and read in documentation that the paid plugin “WPBakery Visual Composer” is required to run this theme. If this is true, I would then ask for refund as I didn’t see anything related in products description and I’m totally allergic to page builders. Is this supposed to be purchased?
Hi,
There is no need to activate or purchase the new license for this plugin. This plugin is already included in the theme package and already purchased the license by P-Themes. This activation message for those who want to update the plugin directly from their website. In our case, you can receive the updated plugin always with the theme update release.
So no need to activate it, just ignore the message and feel free to use it.
2. Please go to WP-Dashboard >> WP Bakery >> Role Manager and for Administrator, Editor, Author set Post Type as Custom and click on all the Custom Types as showing in this screenshot and click on save the change and then check the Product Description: https://pasteboard.co/HIgslPu.png
Hope you will not find an issue and if yes then please contact us through our support system with your site WP Admin Login details so we will check and solve the issue for you.
Thanks
Have a nice day

Most Welcome

Demo Installation how do i do that, i am at /wp-admin/themes.php?page=porto_settings and clickuíng blue import button and nothing happens.
any ideas why?
Hi,
Please make sure that your server requirements must meet the latest theme minimum requirements as given in the theme documentation here: http://www.portotheme.com/wordpress/porto/documentation/
After that please see this Complete Installation and Configuration Guide of Porto WordPress, Included Demo Installation Process as well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U6mqyuDF4GY&t=30s
And follow the instructions showing in the video hope you will not find an issue and if yes then please contact us through our support system with your site WP and CPanel Login details so we will check and solve the issue for you.

hi, aha i forgot to install all hte plugins before the import.
second question the images on “porto interactive banner” are not in media libary where are they? and if i add my on image is just on top of demo one please see here: https://imgur.com/a/8fAuelOHi,
Actually the banner you are referring to is made using Porto Carousel and Porto Inter Active banner WP bakery elements, When you edit your home page you will find those both elements at the top of the page and when you edit the Porto Interactive banner you will find banner image option so just set your image from there it will work for you, and the images coming with the demo import are the dummy images directly coming from our internal server not included in the media library some times.
If you will find any issue in setting it just contact us through our support system with your site WP Admin Login details so we will check and solve the issue for you.
Thanks.
hi, as you may notice that i have add an image in interactive option but as i said it lay on top of yours, please see here https://imgur.com/a/cF8dOUn and https://imgur.com/a/8fAuelO
why is that?
and is it possible to see your original images dimensions as i want to create the same but with different image please
Hi,
We have added the image in page css section here: http://prntscr.com/l5zpuj
You should replace the image from design option or delete it then add the banner image as you did already.
Thanks.

Hi,
I think you have some misunderstanding, The update of the theme version 4.7.2 was released yesterday and if you had downloaded the theme yesterday and in the style.css file of the latest theme version 4.7.2 showing version 4.7.1.1 then please contact us so we will check the theme for you and provide you the solution for that, and also provide you the latest updated theme because I have just checked it at my end and finds the version showing 4.7.2 in the style.css file at my end.
Thanks.
I just downloaded it again and ut still shows 4.7.1.1 In both situations I have downloaded the “installable wordpress only” files and this is what it shows. I think you have some misunderstanding and have only update the “ALL FILES” download link
I see now what you have done. You only updated the download link for all files and DID NOT update wordpress files only
Our dev team just resubmitted that file again, please try it in a few mins again. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks. It isn’t a huge deal, but maybe next time your team can actually look into something a customer says rather than “I think you have some misunderstanding” which was your original reply.
Thanks for your understand, we will keep in mind that for future update.
How to add a mobile phone head. More on the photo. https://yadi.sk/i/ej3wXByjub84ng https://yadi.sk/i/SwMW5G5uOwBAAw
Hi,
You can Add Mobile Contact in the header from Appearance >> Theme Options >> Header >> Contact Info as per your requirements, but some times the Contact Info hides in the Sticky Header by default like in your providing screenshots so for that you have to make it appear using Custom CSS, so I suggest you that please share the site URL so I’ll create a CSS for you site and provide you if you already set the Contact Info in the header, otherwise contact us through our support system with your site WP Admin Login details so we will add a contact info for you on your site and then provide you the solution.
Thanks.

How is related products defined? On what criteria?
How can I control related products for each product manually? Even in code snippet or a plugin, this would be fine.
Thanks,
Hi,
Related Products:
Related Products is a section on some templates that pulls products from your store that share the same tags or categories as the current product.
These products cannot be specified in the admin but can be influenced by grouping similar products in the same category or by using the same tags.
Related products (automatic) also show on the product page.
Furthermore, you can read more about it in the WooCommerce official Documentation here: https://docs.woocommerce.com/document/related-products-up-sells-and-cross-sells/
Also can you please consider to extend your support? It’s already expired from April 2017.

Just tried to activate my purchase, getting this error “Purchase Code is not valid or could not connect to the API server!”
Nevermind, fixed it.
Glad to hear that you fixed it, what was the reason?
Hi,
First of all thanks for showing your interest in Porto WordPress.
We have not tested that plugin with the theme yet but you can try it, and you will find all the compatible plugins list with the theme confirmed from our end here: https://themeforest.net/item/porto-responsive-wordpress-ecommerce-theme/9207399
Thanks.
what would be happen, if it does not work, could i change it back again?
Hi,
If it will not work then you have to contact plugin author and ask plugin author make the plugin Compatible with the Theme or if you want us to make the Theme compatible with the particular plugin so it Requires Customization in the theme core files so you have to contact our Customization team at nicework125@gmail.com for our paid Customization services.
Thanks.
I’m changing domain address. Please help.
Hi,
Can you please explain your issue more clearly if possible with the help of screenshots.
Thanks.
I’m using Porto in a particular website(old), but I no longer use it so I installed it to a new website that has different domain address. The old website is no longer active it was already taken by the registrar. Now upon activating Porto on the new, it says that I already use it on my old site.
Hi,
Yes, before using the theme on the new domain you have to deactivate the theme from the old site by going into Porto >> Setup Wizard >> Activate, you will find the deactivate button there, so just click on it and then you will be able to activate the theme with the same purchase code on the new domain/site.
And if in case the old domain/site was already deleted then contact us through our support system so we will reset the purchase code for you.
Thanks.
I opened a ticket. Thank you.
Hi,
Your issue has been resolved and your ticket reply has been sent please check your ticket reply.

Hi,
First of all, great theme, little but of a learning curve but I can handle. However, I’m unable to change my menu font. I go to Skin > Main menu > Menu font and change the setting but nothing change on the front ends. Any idea why?
Thanks
Hi,
It seems the permission issue. Your server did not give permission to add/save the settings of the Theme Options. Basically, when you saved the theme options then it’s created the skin_1.css file inside the CSS folder, because of permission the theme is not able to create this file on your site. Please contact your hosting provider to change the permission to 777 or 755 of the CSS folder and all files.
OR
That is the cache problem, The best practice is when you are in development mode then disable all the cache plugins on your site and server too and remove site and server cache then finally check your site after removing the browser cache. hope your issue will solve.
OR
Please go to WP-Dashboard >> Plugins and deactivate the plugin name “Fast Velocity Minify” and then go to Appearance >> Theme Options and click on save changes button and finally check your site after removing the browser cache you will find your issue resolved.
Fast Velocity Minify is the plugin that will minify the site CSS and will help in speeding up the site, so you have to activate that plugin once when you completed the site and completed with the development environment.
Hope this helps you in solving the issue and if not then we have to debug your site and for that you have to contact us through our support system with your site WP Admin Login details.
Thanks.
Ok. I tried all solution. It’s mostly a Browser Cache. On chrome I have a hard time seeing updates. So I swtich to Mozilla and it’s fine. I’ll do further test and check what was really causing the problem.
Thanks
False alert, still can’t see the cahnges haha. Cache no cache. Permission set in theme folder CSS to 755 too.
Hi,
Then Can you please contact us through our support system with our site WP Admin and CPanel Login details so we will check and solve the issue for you and then provide you the solution.
Thanks.
Hello, the menu is not picking up the css configuration. This started to happen after upgrading 4.7. I already gave permission 777 and had no effect
