I’m looking for the Journal 2(.16.8) documentation. Is it still available somewhere?

Hi, yes that is still available here: https://docs.journal-theme.com/v2

Best Regards.

Hi, I’m very satisfied with your Journal3 theme, after long time realy usefull, full customizable and very good refine theme – it is fact. At this moment just one thing.

I have noticed quick checkout is generating a lot of missing orders without any useful customers data like, name, addres, email or etc so missed orders in this way are unuseful if you cannot contact customer to try finish his order. I have read some comments about this, probably this is not bug but would like to ask.because it need it need liitle change.

Please, is it possible in next theme update to edit the code of quick checkout module to avoid generate missed orders if useful customer data like I have mentioned above has been not filled or the better should be add to quick checkout setting with minimal required customer data when the quick checkout put missed order into the database?

Many thanks Minno

Hi,

This is how one page checkouts work, a new order is created whenever a customer accesses checkout page for the first time and it’s marked as missing order unless the customer actually finishes the checkout process.

Best Regards.

Yes, but is to think or would be better if one page checkout create order for the first time after customer try to send order not just access and if the required fields are fiilled. Customers ofen access checkout page to calculate shipping cost or see payments methods so at this view it is to think, My live store generates a lot of missing ordes daily and unnecessarily in my opinion.

Hi, an order must be created in the database otherwise payment / shipping extensions may not work properly, this is how all one page checkouts work in Opencart.

Best Regards.

How to install multiple demos in journal 3 like journal 2?

Hi, skins aren’t available like they used to be so not importable by themselves, the entire demo can be exported though.

You can create as many skins as you want but only entire demos can be exported.

Best Regards.

Hi, DA, I would like to create same header menu in WordPress website, like https://ishirt.com.au/ , can you, please let me know how to do that?

Hi, this is not a Wordpress theme so it will not work there. We have our own header designs seen throughout our demos. We can’t import design elements from other platforms.

Best Regards.

Hi,

How can I change this background color? Which option should I go? https://prnt.sc/qbkao7

Which option to edit to align this icons & text: https://prnt.sc/qbl2ic

Breadcrumb styles are in Journal > Styles > Breadcrumbs > [Active Style] >....

I want to buy the product but I don’t know how to install it. what do I need to do after sending to the server via ftp. Do I need to do something different than installing wordpress?

If you have other questions please let us know.

Huey guys, I like the work you have done on this wonderful OpenCart theme. I have a suggestion for next version to be add abiliti and suppor of “redis cache”. I am forcing all my clients online stores based on OpenCart to use “redis driver” for cache sessions. In your theme you use a vendor class SuperCache that is not copmatible with “redis” cache driver. Also you can add memcached and other caching drivers that other developers using in there webservers configuratins.

Hi, our developers will respond to your ticket.

Best Regards.

Hello, I want to refer an issue in Journal 3 with OC 2.3.0.2, there is a problem with the Responsive Table in Posts, When I add a table to the post, the table does not appear right in mobiles, there is no scrolling left / right.

I do not have valid support to open a ticket, but I am sure that others will face the same problem.

thanks, eli

Hi, custom HTML tables are not responsive by default, you need to wrap them in a div element with the “table-responsive” class. For more info please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers.

Hello,

Want to change hover background color & font. https://prnt.sc/qbenod

Where can I change this? Main menu hover effect.

Hi, that uses a menu item style, locate that in Journal > Styles > Menu Item > [Active Style] > ,..

Best Regards.

Greetings i wanted to check about this feature for the product page – It will be great to have a 3 column content split (ratio x ratio x ratio) for the content. You mentioned about an year ago that is something you’ve thought about making is it still on the table cus i do notice a lot of sites have it and will not be so cluttered and more nicer for full width sites?

Hi, unfortunately this is not as easy as it seems, the product details section is quite complex and changes to that layout must take into consideration several other elements. We are still looking into this so it may come but I don’t have a specific date.

Best Regards.

Super… yes i figuer it wont be easy given how complex currently that page is and the theme as whole. Glad that it’s not dropped.

hi again thanks for amazing theme guys, i have a little question ; how can i change mega menu background color when i choose category module i cant chage color , i have tried almost anything but it stays white i can change borders but inside between categories remains white???

Hi, not sure how you mean, please file a ticket on our support page with some screenshots and consult with our developers.

Best Regards.

Product Extras > Product Extra Button “buy now” button. when click on frontend, its not going checkout or cart page. How i can fix it. Thank you

Hi, we need to take a look at your setup in order to see what could be wrong, please file a ticket on our support page so we can take a closer look at this.

Best Regards.

Have a nice day. Only members can read my blog posts. to read my blog posts must login. Is there such a feature in the theme? I could not find?

Hi, sure, you can create menu items and modules specific to user login status. So you can disable links or buttons that point to your blog for guests and only those logged in will see them (and thereby be able to access them). https://take.ms/R3kIE

Best Regards.

That is not possible with built in options, not just the button. You can disable the entire blog module, not just the button. For more info please consult with our developers, maybe there’s a custom css solution.

Best Regards.

Hello, I am making the maximum effort to learn j3, it happens that with the examples to import I do not find any that leads to my purposes. Ex … I would need the “header” of example 7, with the module “The Bags Collection” of example 4, in addition … the module “New Arrivals” of example 4 also, the same with other modules of other examples … Buying the support, is there any way they can give me the modules I need ready? and I modify the internal (location, images, texts etc.), it occurs to me to export certain modules from the examples, and then import them into my project.

I know it sounds like a crazy invention, but I really can’t move forward at all.

An example of the samples does not reach what I need, so I am lost to enter modules of other examples in one.

Hi, partial imports are not possible at this stage unfortunately, only the entire demo. But you can manually create any modules from other demos in your own custom demo.

So you can start with the demo that has the most modules you want and adapt the other elements.

For example just change the header module to that from Demo 7, which is using the Classic header.

In your admin go to Journal > Header and create a new Classic module, then assign it to the skin in Journal > Skins > Edit > Header > Desktop Header, then edit the module to your needs, add menu modules, styles, etc. Main Menu modules are not part of the header, they are created separately in Journal > Header > Main Menu…and assigned in the header module > main menu section.

For more info on how to create various modules from different demos please file a ticket on our support page and consult with our developers.

Best Regards.
