Wasted 2 weeks of work trying to import demo, support recommendations didn’t helped. Beautiful template but doesn’t work.

Hi,

We located your ticket and it has been answered by our support agent. Please, check whole response and follow instructions from here. As we could see, you are facing with demo import problem because there are low resources on your server. Just bust important values, on way our agent suggested and demo import should be done smoothly after.

I see that you have destination categories, for example: “Beaches”. Is it also possible to make a child destination category under “Beaches”? For example: Destination category: Europe Child category: United Kingdom 2nd Child category: London

Hello,

You are able to create sub categories, but there is no stilization for it. For example, here ‘test’ is child under Beaches category https://www.screencast.com/t/xoskCHSs3nk but URL for this single category is the same https://www.screencast.com/t/FUfKmfe0 If you have any other doubt, please, let us know. Thanks

Hi guys, Great theme! A couple of pre-sales questions: 1. Is it possible to mix and match all homepage features? I don’t want to pick 1 homepage style, but combine different things from all the homepage templates. 2. Can I include a videobackground instead of a large image on the homepage? 3. Do you have any examples of travel websites that already use your template? 4. Are there custom sidebars to pick for each post or category/destination? Or is there only one sidebar for all pages/posts? 5. Is it possible to integrate a parallax section (wide screen parallax image with tekst/button)? 6. Mobile friendlyness: is it possible to adjust the mobile settings in the next update? A couple of things don’t show well and are not very user friendly e.g. the horizontal timeline doesn’t completely show, and the destination lists (graphic black and white maps on baleares hompepage and each destination list) take a lot of scrolling. Is it possible to arrange this differtently or exclude this map from the destination overview? 7. And last: if I buy the theme, do I get practical help installing and setting everything up? Or do you only give advise on how to do it myself? Many thanks for your help! Best regards, Manon

Hi Manon,

Thank you for writing in. Glad to hear you like BackPack traveler. 1) Yes, you are able to mix all elements. WIth our demo import you’ll get whole content included on your installation. 2) Under each row there is an option to set Video As background https://www.screencast.com/t/u4Ia1BrEeu and you are able also to add Slider revolution with video. 3) No, we don’t have such examples. Maybe you could check users’ comments here, since maybe there are some URLS added. 4) Under each post you are choosing desired sidebar to be displayed https://www.screencast.com/t/YNE3yytHS0 and the same is for destination https://www.screencast.com/t/7mkGwo9Bzt 5) Each row could be made as parallax section https://www.screencast.com/t/Q9sLQYoHLV 6) Our theme is responsive ready, so we need to ask you to send us some links and screenshot so we could check mentioned parts closer. It will be really helpful. Thanks 7) When you purchase our theme, you’ll get free support for the first 6 months on our support forum. Installation part is explained in our Official manual http://backpacktraveler.mikado-themes.com/documentation/#getting_started_installing_backpack_traveler but if you need further help, our support team could help you to setup your website within our theme.

Thanks guys, really appreciate it! Here’s the screenshots for question number 6. Mobile screenshot horizontal timeline: https://prnt.sc/mo28q3. This doesn’t completely show on mobile. Mobile screenshot destination with graphic map: https://prnt.sc/mo299e. It’s very nice design wise, but as you can see one destination fills up a whole page, so it takes a lot of scrolling. Hope this helps to optimize things! For me, I personally love your theme because it’s different and more creative than all other travel blogs so keep up the good work! However, at this stage the theme (and mainly the mobile version) doesn’t seem intuitive enough compared to some other themes in my selection, which I find a bit easier to navigate. I hope you can appreciate my feedback and am looking forward to see how this theme develops. Best wishes, Manon

Hi Manon,

Ok, so, when it comes to horizontal timeline, it actually can be swiped, so you are able to see whole timeline. Well, on mobile, sections are stacking one below the other, because of lack of space. If you want to see map on some upper place, it could be moved a bit, with column reversing. Thank you for your feedback, of course. We are always glad to hear any suggestion from our customer so we could made our themes even more user friendly.

I submitted two support tickets 4 days ago that have not been responded to. This seems to be a very slow turn around for support – could you please advise??

Hello,

Your tickets are assigned to our agent who just answered. Please, check responses on ticksy. Weekend is behind us which caused this delay, but we are back in full speed and this response time should be improved. Thanks for understanding.

Best regards, Mikado

This is really frustrating – I currently have 9 unanswered tickets …. 9!!!

That is a lot of issues with your template and my frustration is being added to by the fact that the support response is really slow.

1/ left & right vertical menus assigned to these positions are displaying different menus on the front end 2/ menu icons missing 3/ can not see where to manage logo padding or size 4/ blog layout is set to 2 column but is displaying as 1 column 5/ homepage blog carousel slider is resizing images to all be different heights!! 6/ blog page has a testimonial under the blogs which I can not remove as it is not in the page elements anywhere.

I have included admin details in the tickets and would be grateful if you could please address these issues today as I have been waiting for a response to some of these issues since last friday!!!!

Hello, my father bought the Template Backpacker

I have several problems with my template on the website http://souscetangle.fr , - I can’t put the menu on the main page, - I can’t remove the “highlighted” image on the article to leave it on the slide at home - I can’t remove the “Home > Destination > Article” above the articles - When you click on the google map, you choose the destination, when you click on it, on the page on the right there are “2 articles about it” except that when you click, you arrive on the page of all destinations and not only on the page with the articles of this destination - How to translate the “Keep Reading…” into French? - I would like to put the logo in the center on all pages with the menu

Thanks

You’re welcome.

I bought this theme, despite several bad reviews, but now I seem to have the same problem as a lot of others. When trying to import the demo content, it went straight to 90%, but has been stuck there since….. Is this normal and how long should it take? What do I have to do, just wait a couple of hours? Doesn’t seem right though. Thanks for your response.

Hi! I was wondering when this theme is becoming compatible for the wordpress version 5.0.X?

Hello,

Thank you for taking interest in our theme. BackPack traveler is already compatible with latest WordPress version. Gutenberg became the official WordPress editor from WordPress version 5.0. In case you still want to use Classic Editor, you can add it manually, and your page backend will look the same as before. https://www.screencast.com/t/QoCo8YcS Here you could find more about it https://wpklik.com/wordpress-tutorials/how-to-keep-wordpress-classic-editor/ Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Best, Mikado

Thankyou for the quick respons! Do I have to use the Classic editor or is it possible to use the Gutenberg editor?

Hi again,

You are welcome. You could use Gutenberg Editor or our WPBakery page builder.

Best, Mikado

HI. Waiting for your response since 3 days :/ My mobile version doesn´t work. It´s a mess. How can I clean up the sliders (for a nice mobile version?) please check www.fashionpassionlove.de (with mobile phone) and the slider between the “footsteps” doesn´t work. Can you please correct it? Additionally I wanted to change the “Blockquote” Font, like yours in your example pages. But it doesnt. work. Where I can change the font? Thank you!

Hi,

We are sorry for waiting longer. We are overwhelmed with tickets these days. Your ticket has been answered by our support agent. Please, check whole response on ticksy. For any other doubt, our support team will assist you there.

Is it possible to run this theme without using Visual Composer. I don’t like VC, it loads a lot of junky code and makes my sites slow?

Hello,

Thank you for taking interest in our theme.

Well, WPBakery is our main and official page builder with which all our demo content is built, so if you want to achieve the appearance from our theme demo, you’d have to use WPBakery. Our themes are compatible with Gutenberg editor as well, however, since it’s still in the development phase, we’re not sure how much could you achieve with it.

Let us know if you have further questions.
