When I attempt to add an insight icon on my page it does not show . I believe I’ve followed the correct steps to add it successfully but still no luck . Also , I’ve downloaded the vertical marquee plugin to add scrolling text to my page. Is this possible to add within the theme ?

Hi, What is the portfolio page URL?

You don’t have a video hero in this page so we can verify, make sure the links are self hosted video urls – as source for the <video> tag.

Hello! Is it possible to change the curser icon into an other icon?

Hello! It’s custom work. Thanks

Hi ClaPat. I’m considering buying this theme but I need to know how to feed the main images, are these posts or are they created on revolution slider? I hate updating on rev. slider, this is why I ask that. I considered the HTML version, but I have no idea how this version is updated.

Also, is there a trial for the theme? I need to try some modifications, such as changing the font size for the titles and the locations for titles as well, and I’m afraid it may be complicated. If I buy it and doesn’t work for me, how to proceed?

Hi, These are custom post and it is very easy to add them. Here is our documentation. Find the PORTFOLIO POST OPTION:

Best regards

Thank you, two things holding me back: I need the fullscreen home version to have the autoslide option, and a kenburns effect once the slide is waiting the next to come. Would you help me implement those changes once I buy it? Thank you!

Hello, the fullscreen slider is based on swipper, therefore we do not autoplay it. Thanks

Hi there – is it possible to have a custom ordering of the “Filters” Portfolio categories without editing theme files (when you click the 3 dots menu to open the categories)? Is this a setting somewhere? At the moment it is sorted alphabetically and I would like a specific order. Thanks :)

Hello, the default order of the portfolio category is by name. You can change it by modifying /sections/portfolio_filters_section.php

$grenada_portfolio_category = get_terms('portfolio_category', array( 'hide_empty' => 0, 'order_by' => 'none'  ));

where ‘order_by’ parameter can have the following values: id, count, name, slug, none

Thanks

Hi,

Just to to ask a question before purchasing this theme.

Does the theme support bilingual? I mean is there a switch button for language that we can activate?

Hello, the theme is shipped with a wpml xml config file so you could use WPML or Polylang. Thanks

Good Morning! I was interested in the subject, but I have some doubts.

I would like to know how customizable this theme is. For example, some basic things. How to add new pages, and remove others. I would like to remove the “Stories” page and replace “Our portfolio”.

Is it possible to change the format of the gallery? Only images, no text, things like that. And regarding the mobile version, I would like to replace the social networking icons only with the sharing icon, same as the monitor version. Are these types of modifications possible?

Overall I really liked the theme and it suited my needs, but I would need some modifications. Thanks

Okay, all right. Thank you! I just have one more question: Can the collage image be presented in two columns in the mobile version?

Ah, one more thing, I’m trying to apply the “Essential Grid” plugin for WPBakery, for more customization. But it just does not work, and nothing appears on the pages. I tried applying within a portfolio page.

Can not I add differentiated items in the theme or am I facing another problem? Thank you.

Hello. regarding image collage. The collage grid is initialized in /js/scripts.js with the following code:
$('#justified-grid').justifiedGallery({
     rowHeight : 300,
     lastRow : 'nojustify',
     margins : 10
});
and the list of options is available here: http://miromannino.github.io/Justified-Gallery/options-and-events/ You can reduce the rowHeight for example

regarding “Essential Grid” : try disabling ajax loading in theme options. If you are using ajax page trasitionswe strongly recommend using our shortcodes – all the other plugins we cannot guarantee are compatible with this kind of page navigation since they require specific js initialization.

Thanks

Hey ClaPat, loving the design so far. Fantastic work!

If I wanna use the slider as home page which links to other pages instead of portfolio items, how can I go about making the changes? There probably isn’t a simple solution to this but would appreciate any guidance from you.

Thank you. This can be done with custom work – just to give a few pointers: You can add a text field option in /include/metabox-config.php and using that option for each portfolio item you can modify showcase-page.php to use that custom link instead of the_permalink() Hope it helps. Thanks again.

Hi there! Is there somewhere a documentation of setting up the homepage as in the example? I have a lot of trouble understanding the homepage! Thanks in advance!

Hello, Yes, the documentation is online here: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada/documentation/creating-content.html

Basically you need to create your own collection of portfolio items. And then assign a hero image for each of them. Last step is to create a page with Showcase page template. That page will automatically display all the portfolio items. Set it as front page in Settings -> Reading. Thanks

thanks!!

Hi guys,

Massive query here, https://nourisheats.co.

I’m sure this is your template. Wanting to find out if I could have a similar home page to above website and couldn’t find it in the options you provided. Looking for split screen.

Thank you in advance :)

Hi there, You can get split, centered or full screen sliders as you can see in our live demo: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada-wordpress/ That can be set in page options (the type of slider) In general to have an idea of our theme capabilities, in addition to the live demo, you can check the online documentation: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada/documentation/

Thanks

I am having trouble with my parallax images. Usually they do not load, unless I refresh the page.

I read earlier that the latest version of the theme has a shortcode to fix this. How do I use this new shortcode now that I have the latest theme update?

Thank you, Darby

Hi Darby, We have a child theme that is bridging the basic WPBakery elements with AJAX page transitions. You can find this theme in the main archive. Thnaks

Thanks.

Hello! Is there a way to change the social icons from initials to the actual logos of each?

Hello, it needs custom work in /sections/footer_social_links_section.php and /include/defines.php Open a ticket on clapat.ticksy.com, provide wp admin access and we can help you with this. Thanks

Hello. I am interested in purchasing this theme and just wanted to ask a quick question – can I add a hamburger menu which turns into a full-screen overlay with options similar to the one on your Andra theme? And also with a “night mode” switch.

Thanks!

Full screen menu is an option you can enable it in theme options. Regards

Thank you. Last question – can you also enable the night mode toggle?

Night mode is not available in this theme, but you can set on each page white or dark background. Regards

I didn’t know fixing your theme because all the blocks were broken was “custom work” lol, I got this fixed by a third party none of the blocks worked because of some jQuery issue and that would of been on your end and something you should of fixed but like I said I already got it sorted.

http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada-wordpress/ Runs on the latest version of WordPress with latest WPBakery. No problems there. Plz communicate on ticksy any defects you may have (perhaps due to the installation environment). Thanks

Hi there, plz remove the Buy Now themeforest envato frame when navigate to the site and send us the url of the page (otherwise it just leads us to the home page) Thanks

Also how can I remove the “ image caption “ box if possible

Hello, we have a special class for this – full – that you can specify in Extra Class Name in a WPBakery or in Additional class name of Clapat Container if you are using Gutenberg. This also AJAX friendly. We have documented the set of the predefined classes here: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada/documentation/creating-content.html?#css-classes Regarding the image caption box – if we want not break anything – just add another class in the Extra class name of the row containing the image (for example – no-caption) and then add the following in customizer -> additional CSS
.no-caption figcaption {
    display: none;
}

Thanks

Hi, I have two questions: 1) How to embed a youtube video? I tried with wpbakery video element, but in that case, I can’t scroll if the mouse is hovering on video. https://vladimirjocovic.com/cv/video-materijali/ 2) When I change the background on the full menu, I have some lines on a mobile version. How to remove them? https://i.imgur.com/YVayAI8.png

You can add
.flexnav li a {
    border-bottom: initial;
}

in customizer -> additional CSS

Thanks a lot for help about menu issue. Any help for my 1st question? How to embed a youtube video? I tried with wpbakery video element, but in that case, I can’t scroll if the mouse is hovering on video. https://vladimirjocovic.com/cv/video-materijali/

Hi there, you need to find a way to embed the youtube video without the iframe or as we recommend to use our video shortcode for self hosted videos: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada-wordpress/grenada_portfolio/gold-man/ Thanks

Hi ClaPat ! Is it possible to activate the slider automatically when it’s centered without moving the mouse ?

Ahah! ok! Yes it’s enabled. Thanks

Hi there, coming back with an answer from our web designer. the modification you need to made is in /sections/header_section.php an requires to move <div id="content-scroll"> right above <header> Tested on the html version of the theme Thanks</div>

thank youuuuu very much!

GORGEOUS THEME!

Love the simplicity of this theme, ( as well as a few of your other themes as well ) – you guys are staying true to the minimalist approach by not “over bloating” your themes with unnecessary features, and I like that.

I would like to pose 2 minor suggestions regarding this particular theme :

  1. I think an alternative type of nav-menu would be a nice option, such as the one you have on your Nerduck Theme maybe? I think that nav menu is perfect.
  2. On the Blog Page, a Collapse/Expand function needs to be implemented for the posts – because if the user wants to “close” that specific post, they are forced to navigate back to the Top Menu or go to the Next Post, which is somewhat “inconvenient”.

Maybe I have missed this particular function ? Is it present within the Blog Page?

Also : Is there an option to choose a Light Skin version instead of the dark version ?

Overall – I truly love the minimalism of this theme – its the Blog Page which caught my eye + attention. My only concern is what I mentioned above.

Wishing you many $ALE$ & continued $ucce$$ :grin:

Hi, one relatively easy and less time consuming feature to implement would be to have a button returning to the blog page in each of the individual posts page. Similar to the three dots button in the portfolio classic page: http://clapat.ro/themes/grenada-wordpress/portfolio-grid/

We can replace it with an X for example.

The url of the blog page to return to would be a global option. Once we are at it helping you to implement we may as well include it in an update. :)

Hey ClaPat - Thank you for the response regarding this matter. :)

I just want to drop this Script here for you to check out. I believe its a great script for the Blog Page to function properly and possess good usability . ( Check out the Demo’s )

The best way for each Blog Post to function would be in a Toggle mode, and once a Close function is in place, the Post collapses/closes, and the user finds themselves back on the Blog Post List.

Even though the Script ( above ) is great and can do the job – I dont think it would be required to achieve this, because you already have a script in place for the Blog which you could “alter” ( modify ) in order to get the job done :

function Blog() {

        $('article:nth-child(1)').addClass('active');
        $('article').on('mouseenter', function() {
            if (!$(this).hasClass("active")) {
                $('article').removeClass('active');
                $(this).addClass('active');                    
            }
        });

All it would take is maybe 2 lines of code if I a not mistaken ? Overall – I do believe that doing this will make the theme even better than it already is :)

Lasă-mă să știu ce crezi & Iti multumesc inca o data :)

Hello,

this can be a good solution for displaying the posts content inline. I’m not sure if it takes just a few lines of code since mouse enter event is different than on click. The easiest to implement is still the solution I mentioned in my prev comment. We can give you guidelines for any custom work you would like to do, if it comes to that. Requires javascript knowledge.

Apreciem si multumim pentru sugestii. :)

Is there a way to make spacers less in height for mobile version? E.g. a fixed height or a certain percentage of what it is on desktop version…?

Hi, yes, usually what you need to do is inspecting the element in the browser. Once you see what are the properties you can change theme in a media query in customizer -> additional CSS

Hi ClaPat. Is it possible to change the size of the “centered-slider #image-slider” ? Bigger or fullscreen ? Thank you very much for your help !

Hi,

Yes, you can do this. Open scripts.js and go to line 96 and set the scale value from 0.6 to 1 (this will make the images fullscreen). Do the same for line 576.

Regards

Thank you very much !

Hi, thanks so much for a really great theme! Overall, everything is working great, but I am having a few issues:

1- When previewing the site on my computer, the scroll parallax animation on the project pages top image happens smoothly. I have placed these files on my server to start testing, but the animations are not happening as smooth, and very choppy. The transitions aren’t really happening for me either. When a transition is supposed to happen, it appears to start to happen, and then the screen goes black and reloads the image.

2- I am having trouble with linking out on my ABOUT page. You will see I have a download PDF button that does not work, and a LinkedIn Button. Neither are working, only the 3rd CONTACT ME button is working.

3- On the home page, when scrolling up and down, I can only scroll once, and the mouse seems to get stuck. I have to move the mouse, and scroll again to access more projects. I’ve shared this with peers, and when they scroll, they don’t realize there are more projects, because it doesn’t keep scrolling through them, until they move their mouse, and scroll again (more specifically on a laptop trackpad).

My site is not public just yet, so I can email you a link if you’d like.

I did. I realized after I posted. Waiting for a response there.

That is for Satellite by the way, I posted on Grenada.
