Hi there

Whats the deal here?

Between this and Stack theme I purchased 8 licenses. Eight!

Then all of a sudden, both of them are removed from WP, it just stops getting updates and support for both themes – namely does not work with the new versions of WP Less.

Now I have 8 sites that I have to tell clients need to be re-done or I don’t update anything.

Your now selling Pillar here under a new name and still not offering updates or support? I don’t understand how this allowed.

Can you please fix the old Stack and Pillar’s compatibility with WP Less. I can’t even update theme settings without the whole site crashing. I am currently waiting for our hosts to roll a site back to this mornings backup just because I tried to update a favicon.

I appreciate that you can’t always keep stuff selling forever, but I only purchased some of the licenses for Stack approx 3.5 years ago – which is not that long for the average websites longevity. It’s really unfair and bad practice.

Is this script like Wix, that I can charge my client on monthly or annually. If not I would like that features. I don’t mind paying double or triple the original price as long is quality

Submenus are not accessible from a horizontal iPad, even at http://pillar.mediumra.re/. Which is the solution?

Thanks, Bogdan

Hi, i buyed the extended support, but i can’t submint a ticket.

This is strange. Could you please try again? Perhaps it takes a little while for the server to process the purchase you have made.

James

Big fan of your work. Owner of Stack, now thinking about gettin this one but have a question. If I have a site with Stack, is it possible to mix elements of Pillar in this kind of deploy?

Hi there,

Glad you’re loving our work!

Sorry but no, it is not possible to do that. They have too much dissimilar and unique CSS and HTML to be able to pull that off.

Cheers, James

I am reporting a bug for image size inside a modal — in particular this template page: portfolio-modals-contained.html​

The image (inside a slider of a modal) does not resize to the correct size on first load.

If you adjust the browser window size, it will then trigger the correct image sizing.

I can renew support, but only if you can confirm that you are able to help.

This might just require a special line of JavaScript to trigger the resize when opening the modal. I will help you with this but would appreciate you extending support.

Thanks, James

Is this product still supported?

Hello, yes of course, we would not be selling an unsupported item.

James

Awesome,

Just asking as I have filled out some tickets on ticksy, and am waiting for a response.

What is the turn around time on responses, need to get this functioning ASAP.

Thanks

Kurt

No worries, I have answered those now – just FYI we answer tickets Monday to Friday Melbourne time. Hope you and your family are staying safe and well.

Hello Dear, can i connect this theme with codeigniter php? if i want to re-sell the same template with fully connection with admin dashboard php, is this legal or not?

Hi there,

No you can not resell this item, it is copyright Medium Rare. The license is for setting up one website for one use. If you publish two sites, you must purchase two licenses.

I am not sure if you can use this with Codeigniter PHP, but I am sure that you can use the static html and CSS in any templating environment. If codeigniter can be set up with HTML templates, then yes you can – however, I am not sure about the javascript setup in that environment. We have had customers successfully set up their sites using Laravel and Laravel mix. If that is possible, then you can most likely use Codeigniter.

Hi,

I’m using the page builder in the demo you’ve provided but I’m not seeing the Navigation elements (http://pillar.mediumra.re/elements-navigation.html).

If I am to buy this template, I would need to be assured that the Navigation elements do come with the builder, otherwise I can’t build a website without a header.

Please let me know.

Thanks, Jaymes

Hi there,

The Navs available in Variant are: Standard Bar, Bar with Utility and Stacked Bar. These can be trialled using the Variant demo.

The other navs are not possible to integate with Variant, so they are not visible as options in Variant. They are included in the package anyway, accessible outside Variant. To use those ones you would need to add them manually in HTML using a text editor outside Variant after your pages have been exported from Variant.

Is this theme still updated and supported?

I just purchased and downloaded it and wanted to install it but wordpress give me an error message “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the stylesheet style.css.

Theme installation failed.”

In the documentation file there is no e-mail for support to be found, so I might try it over here.

Can you please give me a heads up for this product?

Hi there,

I have answered on your ticket. This is not a WordPress theme. You can purchase the WordPress version here:

https://themeforest.net/item/pillar-multipurpose-multiconcept-responsive-wordpress-theme/17795788

Your ticket explains how you may seek a refund for the HTML version after purchasing the WordPress version.

Kind regards, James

I own this template and wanted to understand how I could create a form and have it submit using a specific PHP file. Currently it uses the global mail.php, but if I wanted to use a modified mail.php file named “mail-contact.php”, how do I modify the <form action= > attribute assuming the action attribute is the proper way to select the specific php file to force it to use the mail-contact.php?

You can specify mail-contact.php in the action attribute. Will the php script return a status? For the js scripts in Pillar to process the response from the server, the server needs to return a number greater than 0.

If you don’t want the pillar js scripts to handle the response from the server, and instead proceed to a different page generated by mail-contact.php, you must remove the class form-email from the form element.

James

What an annoying demo, doesnt load properly on Safari though.

We love the look and feel of Pillar. But it stutters / lags on page scroll on windows current chrome. Any suggestions?

Hi there,

You may try taking the scroll-assist class off the body. That is a scroll hijacking script which was intended to smooth out scrolling but developments in browsers can often change the way these things work.

hi,

https://themeforest.net/item/pillar-multipurpose-html-variant-page-builder/16164427

is it a html template? can i customize it by dreamweaver or html editor instead of using variant page builder?

Hi there,

You may be able to do this, but you would also need to take with it all of the supporting files such as CSS and javascript.

I don’t recommend blending two web pages, as Pillar has a lot of styles and is intended to function as a whole site.

James

Hi!! I see the css bootstrap calling: font-family: ‘Glyphicons Halflings’; src: url(’../fonts/glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot’); But this file are not on the folder… its missing… can you take a look? (ex. glyphicons-halflings-regular.eot .woff .ttf …)

Hi there,

Pillar doesn’t use these Icons, hence they have not been included – were you seeing this error in the console of a page, or was it just inside a CSS file that you noticed the reference?

Feel free to open a support request at mediumrare.ticksy.com where we can discuss further.

Thanks,

Craig

Hi!! If i buy this can i put together the some files from this with your Stack to use both on same project? Or i will have a lot of conflicts… ? I like so much the e-commerce templates from this :D

Hello there,

The files will not be interoperable, howerver if you want to run a Stack page next to a Pillar page, you can house the folders in separate folders. For instance, all the pillar folders could be moved into a pillar folder, and all the stack folders could be moved into a stack folder. Then your html files would need to reference the css and js like this: href=”pillar/js/scripts.js” and the stack pages could use href=”stack/js/scripts.js” . However this could be time consuming to change over. Short answer is no.

1. Why CSS/JS doesn’t exported when I export html version from Variant builder?
2. Does it work on web server? Can I use it on my domain?
3. How to setting that builder export CSS/JS with html at the moment?

Hi there,

Variant does not need to export CSS and JS. All of those supporting files are already in place in the css, js, fonts etc. folders. You simply need to place the HTML page in the main folder (adjacent to the existing html demo pages. When your exported page is with those files it will load properly.

Variant is designed as a tool to help you to build pages from the HTML template quickly and edit the content.

Variant is designed to run on your local machine.

When you are finished making changes, then you copy all the required files from your machine to the server. You do not need to copy the variant folder to the server.

James

No, you should not use Variant on your domain. Variant is not a SaaS in a box for $18… Variant is a tool to save you time when assembling pages from our HTML template.

James

Dose the source code of the html builder included? and if yes can i run it locally on my machine?

Hello, Yes the builder is included in the download, but the source code is minified and obfuscated.

You are expected to run Variant on your own machine, it runs directly from builder.html in the download package.
