Hello,

This a great design! Just starting my tweaks on it! Quick question, is there a newsletter widget (if so I can’t seem to find it)? Or is something I have to get through a plugin?

It looks like Jetpack changed the input tag, so, the CSS isn’t applied as expected, however, You can paste this CSS snippet to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS field, it will work, I will add this change in the next update.

I hope that helps.

Understood! Works just fine now, thank you!

I’m glad that helped, don’t hesitate to let me know if you need further assistance.

Hello,

In the center of the page “Inner Post”, I’m having trouble getting the articles to list One by One similar to the demo. What am I missing here?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

If you asked for placing Related Posts widget, you can navigate to Appearance > Widgets, drag and drop the “[Kappa] Related Posts” widget into the “Inner Post” sidebar.

I hope that helps, let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

If there a way to get the Kappa Related Post widget to run vertical rather than horizontal? Or do I have to set a separate widget showing only 1 article at a time?

Example:

[Post] [Post] [Post]

VS

[Post]

[Post}

[Post]

Please excuse these noob questions as I’m still pretty new to all this.

Thanks for all your help!

I guess you asked for setting up the homepage, if so, the homepage displays the latest posts by default, no further settings.

To set up the featured slider, go to Appearance > Widgets > Drag in the “[Kappa] Featured Posts” widget into the “Featured” widget area.

In the settings for the “[Kappa] Featured Posts” widget you can set which posts you want to show.

If you see any hard work while setting up the theme, don’t hesitate to share your website URL and the login credentials via this form, I will set it up for free.

Thanks.

How do I update the Kappa theme I already have installed? Version I have installed is 1.1.4 Thanks

Hello, you can download the new version from your download page, in order to update the theme, you can:

1. Use the Envato Market plugin, the plugin allows you to be able to update all items that you purchased from Envato market (ThemeForest and Codecanyon are supported), here is an official discussion about the plugin.

2. OR override the new version onto your hosting at wp-content/themes/ by using FTP client tool or Cpanel.

3. OR log in to your backend, deactivate and delete the Kappa old version, then, reupload and reactivate the new version.

I hope that helps.

Hello! Since wordpress updated to ver 5, the default editor has changed. I can create video posts for example even now, but there is no field to put the youtube url etc. Any fix?

It’s released, you can download the new version from your download page, in order to update the theme, you can:

1. Use the Envato Market plugin, the plugin allows you to be able to update all items that you purchased from Envato market (ThemeForest and Codecanyon are supported), here is an official discussion about the plugin.

2. OR override the new version onto your hosting at wp-content/themes/ by using FTP client tool or Cpanel.

3. OR log in to your backend, deactivate and delete the Kappa old version, then, reupload and reactivate the new version.

After updating the theme, you must update the “Vafpress post format UI” plugin at Appearance > Install Plugins page.

I hope that helps.

That woked PERFECTLY! THANK YOU!

I’m glad it worked.

Cheers.

Hi, this is the the URL to look into the “back to the top” button.

https://blogdelnoobesports.com/

I reinstall the theme but changes all the style so the only thing that I can do it is restore to the prevoisuly versión (but with the green flash).

Thanks!!

Hi,

- You must reinstall the new version as suggested OR just override the kappa/inc/theme-options.php file, the flash will be removed.

- You can paste this CSS snippet to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS field to fix the button
#copyright p:nth-child(2){
    float: left;
    line-height: 50px;    
}
I hope that helps.

Thank you very much phpface!!!

I’m glad that helped, let me know if you need further assistance.

Thanks.

Hi, I’m new to all this and I have many questions:

I want an image to occupy the entire header. How can I do it?

How can I delete “on” and “by” on the date and author of my publications?

How can I change my copyright information?

Thank you!

You are welcome, let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

Hi (again) I have some little issues:

When I open the site or go to any page on the web (when the page is loading) a flash appears with the background color and I don’t know how to remove that flash.

The “back to the top” button is no longer inside the footer (it is outside).

Thanks for all!!!

Hello,

- You can install the new update from your download page, the flash issue will be fixed.

- Could you share the URL? I will have a look into the “back to the top” button.

Thanks.

https://www.myplaystation.nl whe you go to laatste games or laatste news you will see lees verder button , but on homepage you see all content without the button read more how come and how can i edit this ? i dont want to show all content on the first page

Hello,

You found that, right? don’t hesitate to let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

hi,

just have a qeustion i think im doing something wrong i dont see the slider http://217.23.2.104/~myplaystay/

there is standing Nothing found!

how can i fix this.

Great theme by the way

hope to hear from you soon

kind regards.

Hello,

That means no posts were found, if you imported the demo widget, you should remove the “featured” tag (see screenshot) or put your special tags to retrieve the featured posts.

I hope that helps.

Yes sir it works great many thanks , is there also an option to set the same heigt of the slider images ? everything is really nice now but some images are larger then others in the slider

That happens because of the image size, the minimum requirement for your image size is 650×450px, otherwise, they will be stretched or not working as expected.

Hi there, at the moment I’m having 2 slight issues with my website. http://abadpassword.com/

The first occurs whenever I’m on the homepage. When I scroll to the very top of the page everything tabs over to the right, which it should’t be doing. Once I slightly scroll down, everything on the front page is put back into its regular position.

And secondly, whenever visiting my website on a mobile device, the website will show the entire article on the home page instead of just the thumbnail and small text preview. Meaning, each article is posted in its entirety on the homepage, making the page quite long to scroll through.

Is there a way to fix these issues or is there something that needs to be done in WordPress that I’m just skipping over? Thanks.

Hello,

1. Just update Kappa to the newest version, the issue will be fixed.

2. That happens because of Jetpack Mobile Theme feature, you should disable it, see Mobile Theme

I hope that helps and please renew support if you need any further assistance.

Thanks.

I want to display the author pages, but I don’t like how they are displayed with the URL name, where would I look to change it to the name they chose IE: Instead of “Ray_Smith” It would be “Ray Smith”?

Hi, unfortunately, as my experience, that’s unavailable.

Hi, is there a way for the video posts to still show the video and not the featured image? Even if one is attached?

Could you share the URL? I will have a look into it.

Hi, If so, you should embed the youtube video URL to the post content, it looks like as you added the “RDR2 Rescue” post.

Whenever I check web tools they always give an error for not having a H1 tag on the main page. As far as I can see the main page doesn’t have an option to input a H1

Hello,

Thanks for letting me know, I will add the H1 tag in the next update.

Hello,

Sometimes the site load half page. if you like I can send pic.

Thank you.

how can I do the update?

I see that the theme version is 1.1.4 but the child theme is 1.0.0 so I need to update also the child theme or it’s ok? maybe we can talk by mail? thank you for support.

Hi,

I meant to say about parent theme, its newest version is 1.1.4, you should update it as suggested.

If you haven’t updated the theme, you can download the newest version from your download page (https://themeforest.net/downloads), then, extract the kappa.zip file and override the kappa folder to your hosting at wp-content/themes/

I hope that helps and please renew support if you need further assistance.

Thanks.

Hi,

For some reason none of the social icons are appearing on your theme, would you have any idea why?

No worries, It depends on the browser used by the looks of it, Edge is Okay IE and Chrome aren’t. Font-Awesome is failing to load, possibly why.

Found the issue, Cross-origin resource sharing, something to do with Stackpath CDN conflicting with your theme and creating CORS. Contacted Stackpath and they sorted it, within about 15 seconds.

Quite impressive, It seemed far more complicated from reading about it lol.

Thanks for the help.

I’m glad you solved that, don’t hesitate to let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

For some reason, the tagline is not appearing when I hover over the tab on any of my browsers.

Hello,

Could you capture a screenshot about that? I’m not sure I fully understand what you asked for.

Thanks.

It looks like the problem comes from Yoast SEO plugin, as my experience, from backend, you can navigate to SEO > Search Appearance > General tab and set up your SEO Title field, something like this screenshot https://nimb.ws/8rGcRA

I hope that helps.

Do you think you’ll ever make a shortcode or feature for a staff page if there isn’t one? I wanted to give credit to my staff, but I couldn’t find any way to do that without using a plugin that clashed with the theme a bit. I tried going to the Kappa shrotcode website, but it’s just a greetings page now.

Hello,

Unfortunately, Kappa is a gaming blog theme, such membership feature is unavailable, keep in mind that you could always use the 3rd plugins for that purpose, try “wp user credit” keyword on Google and you will find some plugins.

Let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.

Hello

I got some changes I’d like to make before I purschase this theme. I wanted to take this in private but can’t find any information in how to contact you beside using the comments page.

Please check my URL and see if these changes would be possible. I got decent amount of html, xml to find it out. Just need to know that it’s technically possible.

Note: I want to translate everything, from news, forum, etc. etc. I can do it manually. Just need to know that it’s editable from php

https://imgur.com/Fk3ow2u

Thanks

Hello,

That is possible but I’m afraid you would need to modify the theme or hire a freelancer, if you are interested in my paid service, please contact me via this form after purchasing.

Regarding translation, you can translate the theme by translating the PO file, this is detailed in the documentation of the purchase package.

Thanks for your interest.

Thanks so much. I don’t mind modifying as long as I know it’s technically possible. I’ll contact you very soon.

Thank you.

Hi Dear ! can i hide title of post in slideshow؟ I just want to display the photo not the title and how i can add link bar upto header ??

Hello,

Simply, you can paste this CSS snippet to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS field to hide the title
.feat-info .entry-title {
    display: none;
}

Do you want to add the menu items to the primary menu? if so, please read the “Set up Menu” section in the documentation.

also please answer to this two questions https://imgur.com/a/BQBMSoJ

Thank you for your patience and cooperation

Hi,

1. Unfortunately, such options are unavailable, the widget hasn’t been made for that, I’m afraid you would need to modify the theme or hire a freelancer, if you are interested in my paid service, just leave me a message via this form.

2. You can open kappa/inc/theme-options.php, Find
'async_typography'       => false
Change to
'async_typography'       => true
That will solve the loading issue.

3. You should update Kappa to the newest version (1.1.4), if no luck and if possible, just share your website URL here, I will have a look into the buttons.

4. The top menu is unavailable.

Thanks.

Hi There,

Im having a bit of trouble with posting videos. If I dont set a featured image the popular widget breaks, and If i set a featured image then it appears on the home screen directly above the video.

1) is there a way to post so the thumbnail of the video appears as the the featured image.

2) Or is the there away to hide the featured image from the home page feed?

Cheers,

You’re a wizard! Thanks for your help. I used the CSS cod to remove it from the homepage. How would I also remove featured images from appearing within the post itself when you actually click into it?

Sorted now, I’m an idiot! (Just mark the post a video format) Thanks again :)

I’m glad to know you found that :)

Thanks.

Hello, do you know what’s causing this issue?

55 links have no text describing their destination. Links on a page should describe their destination for the benefit of both screen readers and search engine spiders.

It has been picked up from a website analysis.

The only information I could find was someone suggesting it could be either a theme or WordPress issue.

You can try this CSS instead
.post-entry li {
    font-size: 18px;
}
I hope it works.

Thanks it did :)

I’m glad that helped, let me know if you have further questions.

Thanks.
