Hi, When I choose to display the featured image on the post, it displays cropped on the carrousel, like the cropped thumbnail.

(I changed the size of the carrousel to display my horizontal images, which are shown in other platforms.)

So I choose to NOT display the featured image, but instead I include the horizontal image on the gallery.

But anyway the portfolio carousel shows the cropped image. (http://www.pintassilgoprints.com/portfolio/pedrita/)

Could you please send me a clue on how to solve this? (displaying the original proportions instead of a square?)

Thanks!

Try the instructions I provided in the previous answer to see if it works. It will also change the featured image size and maintain the aspect ratio.

Hi, How can I change the proportion of the portfolio thumbnails? I’d like to set them horizontal instead of square. The posts I’ve imported have square thumbs, generated by my old theme (and are fine on Flora!), now I posted a new one and I’m struggling to find our how to change this.

Here’s a quick guide to change the image sizes:

1. You may need to add custom functions below to functions.php in your child theme:

function flora_change_image_sizes() {
    add_image_size( 'medium', 300 );
    add_image_size( 'large', 640 );
}
add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'flora_change_image_sizes', 50 );

This will maintain the aspect ratio of your images, please make sure your portfolio images have the same aspect ratio so they will fit perfectly in the grid layout.

2. However, the code above will work after switching to the child theme. If you’re currently using the child theme, you will need to switch to the Flora theme (parent theme), and then switch back to the child theme again.

3. This will affect the images you upload in the future. If you’d like to update the existing images, you will need to use the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ ) to re-generate your thumbnails to the new sizes.

Hi, can you give me some clue about changing the position of the portfolio arrows, or maybe the color so they turn our more visible?? (http://www.pintassilgoprints.com/portfolio/plumcake/)

Try adding CSS snippet below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS to see if it works:

.portfolio-slider .post-media .owl-nav > div {
  background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.8);
}

Hello! Why in the accordion are the words in uppercase transferred to a new line? http://www.frantova.com/workshop/

I’m sorry but looks like you edit the Section of the Accordion, not the row. You will need to edit the Row inside that section.

Here’s a quick guide:

1. Click on a plus icon in front of “9, 10 апреля — Москва (Домашний МК)” to show the content inside that section.

2. Click on a pencil icon in the top right corner of the row to edit the row settings, see the picture below:

3. Change the Content Vertical Alignment in the Row Settings window to “Top”.

Thank you for the video you provided, really appreciate it!

However, that is still not what I meant. The pencil icon that I’m talking about is in the right top corner of the content, please see the picture below:

If you couldn’t adjust this, you can send us a private message with your WordPress admin login details in the contact form on the profile page below so we can help you out:

Hello. suddenly the ability to edit pages in WPBakery Page Builder was gone. How do I get this functionality back? I noticed that in the subject periodically something disappears. https://drive.google.com/open?id=1JmhP9JJecRDeJNgVqG7phHBDoqDE5_OF

Solved the problem by reinstalling the plugin.

Glad to hear that it has been resolved!

Hello! I want to know if there is any function that I can change all single portfolio layout in all portfolio items. I bought your theme the last year and I have 144 items, i need to change all layouts, no one by one. Thank you.

We’re sorry but please contact us from the account that purchased this theme to make sure you’re currently in the correct product page that corresponds to what you have purchased.

Hello, is it possible that in a portfolio, when you click on it, it does not take you to your portfolio but only opens a lighbox? I need a gallery of images with a filter, but I do not want them to open on a separate page, but to make the main image bigger. it’s possible?

Sorry for the delayed response!

Try adding CSS snippet below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS to see if it works:

.w-view figure figcaption > span,
.w-view figure figcaption > span > a {
    bottom: 0;
    left: 0;
    position: absolute;
    right: 0;
    top: 0;    
    width: 100%;
    height: 100%;
    z-index: 999;
}

.w-view figure figcaption > span > a:before {
    display: none;    
}

Hope this helps!

Wooow, Muchas gracias!!! Thanks you!!

You’re welcome :)

Is there css or theme settings to have the logo’s top padding removed? We want it to be flush with the top of the screen. Thanks!

Try adding CSS snippet below to Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS to see if it works:

#header-logo img {
    margin-top: 0;
    max-height: none;
}

I recently purchased Flora for my online creative portfolio. I’m having quite a bit of trouble navigating the theme. Are there online tutorials available that can walk me through this theme? My old website is so much easier to build and edit.

You can use WPBakery Page Builder to build the page and post, here’s the video tutorials: https://wpbakery.com/video-tutorials/

However, this theme comes with custom content elements and features and the frontend editor is disabled, you may need to use the backend editor instead. You can find the instructions and more details on how to use the theme in our documentation:

https://wydethemes.com/flora/documentation/

hi, do you think this theme standard header logo size is fine?

This size automatic and not enough. How to fix this logo size and I can expand my logo?

No theme options this tool.

thank you

Sorry, read the other comments I found the solution. Thank you.

Glad to hear that you’ve figured it out!

Hi, how can I activate wpbakery license? Thanks in advance

You can normally use it without activating/registering the produce code. That option is only available for direct customers who have purchased that plugin individually to enable the automatic update feature.

However, that plugin is included in the theme and it needs to be updated by the theme author to make sure it will be compatible with the theme. When it was packed with the theme and the automatic update feature is disabled, the product license tab won’t show up either.

Anyway, if you’d like to activate it, you will need to add the code below to functions.php in your child theme to enable the automatic update feature so you will have a product license activation option in WPBakery -> Product License:

function flora_enable_vc_updater() {
    vc_manager()->disableUpdater(false);
}
add_action( 'vc_before_init', 'flora_enable_vc_updater', 100 );

Also, please ensure that you have updated the theme and all bundled plugins to the latest update to make sure that code will work correctly, you can see more details about the update in the link below:

https://themeforest.net/item/flora-responsive-creative-wordpress-theme/12038776#item-description__update-log

Hi, Are there customising options for the portfolio slider? I adjusted the size with css code on the head, as explained here, but I’d like to know if there are other options. I’d love to adjust opacity for the images that appear next to the main image, and maybe displace the arrows. Here’s one of my portfolio pages http://www.pintassilgoprints.com/portfolio/pedrita/

Actually, when using the Portfolio Slider layout, it will crop the images to square size to make sure they will fit perfectly within the slider layout. I have no idea why your site displays the landscape dimension instead. I would recommend using the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/ ) to re-generate all thumbnails to new sizes as defined by the theme to make sure it will work correctly.

However, if you’d like to display the landscape images on slider instead of square, try to replace the CSS snippet I provided previously with the new one below to see if it works:

.portfolio-slider .owl-item > div,
.portfolio-slider .owl-item a {
    height: auto;
}

Thanks. My site displays the landscape dimension because I put some code provided here on the support to set such dimension. But I’d like this to be adjustable for mobile. The provided css didn’t make it yet.

Ok! It worked. THANK YOU.

Hi, just purchased :) I have activated the theme successfully and installed the plugins, great, but… my portfolio from previous theme disappeared so I reactivated the older one for now. Do you have a tip on how to import those items? There are around 200 portfolio items.

Okay, installed a plugin to change the post type. Solved.

We’re sorry but the portfolio is a custom post type, the one from another theme/plugin won’t be compatible with this theme and couldn’t use the portfolio layout from this theme. If it comes with the plugin, you will need to activate that plugin to make it work.

However, if you would like to use portfolio from the previous theme with the new layout from the new theme, we would recommend using the Post Type Switcher plugin ( https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-switcher/ ) to change the post type to new portfolio type of the Flora theme (wyde_portfolio).

The theme I got wan’t compatible with the CMS, is there any way I can receive a refund?

This is a WordPress theme, it is compatible with WordPress up to 5.0.x. Could you please let me know which CMS you are using?

My client changed to another theme other than wordpress before I started using this one. I can no longer use this WordPress theme, can you revoke the license and provide a refund?

We’re sorry but as stated in the Envato Market Refund Rules ( https://themeforest.net/page/customer_refund_policy#not-refundable ), we couldn’t give you a refund in situations like the following:

you don't want it after you've downloaded it;
the item did not meet your expectations;
you simply change your mind;
you bought an item by mistake;
you do not have sufficient expertise to use the item;
you ask for goodwill; or
you can no longer access the item because it has been removed (we advise you to download items as soon as you have purchased them to avoid this situation).

Kind regards,

Wyde

Hi, Is it possible to set 2 different portfolios on my site using this theme? Almost deciding to purchase Flora, congrats for the great work, looks stunning.

Hi,

Sure, this theme comes with 4 layouts for portfolio list. You can have 4 different portfolio layouts on one site. It’s an individual setting for portfolio grid element. It means that you can also put 4 different portfolio layouts on the same page to show different portfolio items from different categories, for instance.

Also, this theme includes 4 layout for single portfolio, you can have different layout for different single portfolio item too.

Anyway, we would recommend checking out our new themes also. It comes with more different layouts and features and also includes more ready to use demos. It’s called Aoraki as you can check out at the link below:

https://themeforest.net/item/aoraki-multiconcept-business-wordpress-theme/19652714

As a theme developer, I can confirm that it is better than the old ones.

Thank you for your interest in our theme :)

Thank you! Checking the new theme and finally deciding for one of them :)

Thank you for choosing our theme! Hope you enjoy it.

Hi, I updated the theme and the site to Wordpress 5. First off, the mobile menu is still broken. Can you please log into the site and fix it?

Also the Visual Composer is no longer working now that I’ve updated to Wordpress 5. The VC’s new text boxes also don’t have options to edit the text, like center/bold/etc – seems like I have to do all that with code. How do I fix this issue?

Regarding the mobile menu issue, it seems like that this is a bug of the theme on Safari on mobile. Thank you for reporting this issue, it will be fixed in the next update of the theme.

Hey, looking to follow-up here. Seems like the post above is referring to the same issue. You said that a new update will be released in the “next few days”, but we are still waiting for the release.

Is there an update on when the mobile menu will be fixed? We are waiting on the fix so that we can start marketing and driving mass traffic to our site.

We’re sorry but there seems to be a problem with the third party jQuery library that we used for the mobile menu so we need to build new mobile menu and this took longer than the plan. We are working on this and will release it ASAP.

Mobile menu not working properly. The menu sidebar is almost impossible to slide through and just isn’t working right. Please take a look: chefofallseason.com Seems like I’m scrolling through the actual page, not the menu itself, very trippy. Perhaps I accidentally turned on some weird setting.

I haven’t upgraded to wordpress 5 yet. Could that be the reason? I’ve been hesitant because a lot of themes got hit hard by the upgrade and haven’t had time to fix all the bugs.

We’re working on this and will release the new update once we find the best solution.

Any update on the update? We need the mobile menu to work!

We’re sorry for the delayed response!

Anyway, we will release the new update in a couple of days.

I’m working on a client’s site and looking to make edits to the functionality of an acordian that I set up.

When you set up an accordian, you select which section automatically opens when the page loads. Is there a way to only have 25% of that section load so that users can see the other accoridan sections? Then when the user clicks on a section, the entire section opens up?

Hi guys, so I have another client using a different theme, that also has an accordian element. The accordian there has the same issues, I asked them for assistance, and they were able to provide me with a php code that fixed the issue.

I tried the code within this theme, but naturally it didn’t work since elements are named differently. Any chance you can re-work the the php code to work for this theme? Here is the code:

function scroll_top_on_toggle(){ ?> <script> (function($){ $(document).ready(function () { $(’.single_toggle’).click(function () { $(“html, body”).animate({ scrollTop: 0 }, 600); return false; }); }); })(jQuery); </script> <?php } add_action(‘wp_footer’, ‘scroll_top_on_toggle’);

This is the level of support I’m looking for guys. Help me out here so I can do right by my clients!!!

You will need to add the JavaScript snippet below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Body Content to achieve this:

<script type="text/javascript">

    (function($){
        $(window).on('wyde.page.ready', function () {
            $('.w-accordion .acd-header').click(function(){
                var $header = $(this);
                setTimeout(function(){
                    wyde.page.scrollTo($header);
                }, 400);
            });
        });
    })(jQuery);

</script>

Thank you. Works like a charm. We appreciate the help!

When sorting posts by a category page is it possible to get a different image to appear, other than the featured image?

Here is an example.

https://hmad.agency/?cat=142

Thanks!

WordPress retrieves the post thumbnail from the featured image. You may need to set the featured image for the post.

If you wouldn’t like to show the featured image on the single post (post details), you can change the Featured Image Size under Theme Options -> Blog -> Blog Single Post to “Hide Featured Image”.

Hello. Please help me. Suddenly, on my website, the “Blog” block was not full width, an empty area appeared on the right. All that I could have checked, but I can not return the original look. www.frantova.com

Hello,

Try to update the theme to see if it works. Also, after updating the theme, you may need to clear the browser caches by pressing Ctrl+F5 (Command+R).

Hope this helps!
