hey there, great work on the theme! Any plans on updating it to support the new Instagram API token? It is currently not working anymore on our website

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in.

Instagram developers have made some changes to their API.

You can find more info here: https://www.instagram.com/developer/

Our devs are working on a solution.

Also, we have started recommending the third-party Instagram Feed plugin to our customers, as the plugin is more specialized for Instagram, and we did not have any compatibility issues with it. Their plugin has already been updated to be compatible with the API changes so you could try it out until our developers find a suitable solution.

Thank you for your patience and understanding and if you have any additional questions we would kindly ask you to submit a request at our help center and our support team will be happy to help.

Thanks.

Hi,

I already had this problem before. I don’t understand why the title tags of an article are not in h1? You gave me this code to put in function.php, it worked but today with the update, it does not work anymore. The titles are in h2 and I don’t know how to change that.

/** * Change the heading tag for single blog posts title. */ function change_blog_post_title_tag( $params ) { $params[‘title_tag’] = ‘h1’; return $params; } add_filter( ‘backpacktraveler_mikado_filter_blog_part_params’, ‘change_blog_post_title_tag’, 11 );

Thank you !

Hi,

The change was gone with the update because you haven’t performed the change inside the child theme. Please send an email to helpcenter@qodeinteractive.com and include your site URL and one of our support agents will assist you.

I get instagram api error!

Hi,

It seems like the Instagram developers changed their API lately so all Instagram-related feeds stopped working. This is not the case just for our plugin, but all others that are relying on their system. We are in touch with them and we’re patiently waiting for solution. Until then we’d appreciate if you could be a little bit patient, there’s nothing we can do at this moment. If anything changes in the meantime we’ll provide the solution as fast as possible. Thank you for understanding.

Hello ! I did the updates and I have a problem with instagram. I try to ‘reconnect’ but this message :

{“error_type”: “OAuthException”, “code”: 400, “error_message”: “Invalid scope field(s): basic”}

Can you help me please. Thank you ;-)

anyone managed to include the author of a destination (which is a custom post type) in author archives?

Hi,

Thank you for reaching us.

Item dashboard is not the forum-based, so you can’t communicate with other users. Achieving what you requested would require some custom coding, which we’re not in a position to provide. Perhaps it would be best to hire someone to perform this type of work for you.

Hi there! Great theme. I’m having a bit of a problem — I deleted the blog I was testing this on before de-registering and now I can’t remember which one I was testing it on in order to de-register so I can use it on my current blog. Is there any chance you’d be able to tell me which site I’ve got this registered on so I can reinstall WP and de-register this theme? Thanks!

Hi,

Please send an email at helpcenter@qodeinteractive.com and include your purchase code and one of our agents will help you out with this.

Been a user of this theme for nearly a year now and having issues with adding the search feature in my navigation menu. Is there code we can add to our Visual Composer to replicate the search function form the BackPack Travelers code?

Hi there,

Please check our theme documentation for this here also you can check our video tutorial that might help.

If you have any additional questions we would kindly ask you to submit a request at our help center and our support team will be happy to help.

Thanks.

I would like to know if it is possible to see the number of people who have viewed your posts?

Hi there,

Thanks for taking an interest!

We do not have this feature included within our theme but it could possibly be added by using some 3rd party plugin, however, please note that we cannot recommend nor guaranty any as they have not been tested for compatibility with our theme.

Do let us know if you have any additional questions.

We have tried multiple attempts to install the demo content (both elementor and wpbakery) but all attempts fail. This is a clean wordpress install and have increased memory limits. The demo seems to install as just one long text block. Can you offer any solution?

Hi there,

Thanks for writing in! If you are somehow having an issue with the demo import we would kindly ask you to check your resources as well as you can always try to import our demo content with our XML file

If you somehow still encounter issues and have any additional questions I would kindly ask you to submit a request at our help center and our support team will be happy to help.

Hi,

- I loved your theme. I want too much use in my web site, but is it possible building restoran list page, beach club list page or pub list page each destination? like directory listing theme… like this -> https://www.bodrumfinder.com/bodrum-rehberi/?postType=listing&postsPerPage=15

- is it possible add search bar each page?

Thanks…

Hi there,

Thanks for taking an interest! Unfortunately the Backpack Traveler theme is not a listing directory theme. You could possibly consider using a plugin for this purpose however do note that we cannot guaranty theme compatibility as it has not been tested with our theme.

Do let us know if you have any additional questions.

Hi, the theme looks great but it seems that both the Google Map and Instagram cannot be displayed properly now with your demo, and I guess it is because of their updates of API requirements.

Has this issue been fixed with your theme? Or any work-around I have to tackle this issue after buying this theme?

Hi there,

The demo is for presentation only, and the Google map had reached the limit request and you can read more about it here

And when it comes to Instagram, thanks for notifying us, and our team is checking this, it will for sure be resolved soon. However, this will not affect anything on your end as once you do connect with your Instagram account it will show your images from there for sure.

Do let us know if you have any additional questions.

Thanks for your reply.

1) Appreciate your clarification. Totally understandable.

2) Seemingly now Instagram requires Access Token to connect a website to an IG account. Is it possible to do so with your theme? If not, I guess probably the IG feed cannot be shown properly as it did before?

Hi there,

You can always use this plugin.

Let us know if you have any additional questions.

Hi, I am planning to get this theme. Are you able to advise me on the following questions please:

1) I found on a link that mentioned the portrait image, with the dimensions at least approximately being 800 by 1157 pixels. Is there any place I can find all images recommended dimensions (such as logo, full-width photo, icon and etc) listed?

2) Is it possible to insert breadcrumbs into the post? E.g. Destination – Continent – Country – State

3) Is the function of calling the headings and subheadings (Things to See, Typical Costs and etc) on the sidebar able to be implemented on any post or page? https://backpacktraveler.qodeinteractive.com/destination-item/perth/

4) Is Instagram function working? On your page, I see a broken image icon and words.

Thanks!

Hi there,

1. It has the size of 1920×1100px

2. Yes, it does, if you turn on breadcrumbs in the Title settings.

3. On any page you do have an option to add a Side area in the page settings, then you will need to add the widgets to the sidearea in Appearance > Widgets.

4. Glad to hear this, as we could not locate any error :)

Thank you for your last reply.

I have bought this theme and it looks awesome.

However, there is not much support received from your agent. Your support agent is not being really helpful and is simply telling me things that I have already know instead of providing any solution.

For instance, Prior to the purchase, I asked if the other page and post can have the anchor text functions similar to Mikado Additional Sidebar Items. And your reply sounded easy and can be done just by adding a widget into the sidearea.

The problem encountered: I created the widget and anchor text. But clicking on the anchor text scrolls the page two-notch further down the desired section as that section was covered by your menu. And also I asked how can I enable the sidebar to be sticky similar to the Mikado Additional Sidebar Items.

Your support team’s reply: About the anchor ID, it scrolls to the section that you want, but keep in mind that your header is hiding that section, because it is displayed on top of it.

About the sidebar, it would involve a lot of coding to make this work, but this falls out of our support scope. You can find a lot of helpful tutorials online, for example this one: https://www.minddevelopmentanddesign.com/blog/create-floating-html-element-stays-sidebar-scrolling/

Conclusion: I felt no support was given at all. The header covered the content based on your theme coding. He could have provided me an alternative like top padding offset and etc. Or is this a case of over-promise but under-deliver?

I sincerely hope you can look into this matter and provide solutions please.

Hi there,

Sorry for the possible misunderstanding. You do have a Sidebar on pages for sure which you can enable but it will not have the sticky effect such as in destination item, as we did not at first get the impression that you were talking about the sticky sidebar, rather told you that the sidebar can for sure be present on pages, which it can.

We have located your request and it is being handled by our support agent. They will do their best to help you with any issue you encounter so please keep the conversation with our support agent.

Thank you.

Hello. I’m interested in purchasing this theme. Before I do I was hoping to be directed to the shutterstock link to see how much the hand drawn images in the demo would cost me. Thank you very much.

I am still working with support. Considering it has taken so long, I really need this done before the weekend! My ticket is still open.

Is there a phone number I can call for support? I need to talk to someone in a faster back and forth than a one business day at a time response.

Hi there,

Thank you for submitting a request, we have located it and can see that an agent has been assigned and answered to your request. Please for any additional issues continue the conversation with our support agent as they might help you.

Hi. I am facing a problem with the destination post archive template. If i set the page template to “post destination” it doesn’t work. At each destination page, in the right sidebar, I have “0 related articles – see articles”. I want this functionality to work. I alse have created a Post (an article) but the counter is not working.

Hi there,

Could you please explain this a bit more and as well your website URL would be helpful as we could have a better insight on your issue.

Thanks.

So, this is my destination post articles page https://romanian-romance.com/destination-posts-archive/ , that has an article. Also, for example, in every destination post like this https://romanian-romance.com/destination-item/atra-doftana/, in the right sidebar it shows 0 related articles, and if i press “see articles” it goes to this url https://romanian-romance.com/destination-posts-archive/?destination-id=6629 . What am I not doing it right?

Hi there,

In this theme, there are separate singles for Destination Single: http://backpacktraveler.mikado-themes.com/destination-item/france/ and post single http://backpacktraveler.mikado-themes.com/people-nature-everyday-life/. You can choose in post single backend whether to assign it a destination or not: https://www.dropbox.com/s/b98e59jaos7ac55/Screenshot%202020-05-14%2011.08.52.png?dl=0

On a single destination, you can assign a category as well as you will be able to add your posts into the content if you wish that with our blog list shortcode.

If you have any additional questions we would kindly ask you to submit a request at our help center and our support team will be happy to help.

Hi, I want to buy this theme but I want to know if it is possible to assign multiple destinations to an article. For exemple, if I have destinations like: Germany, France,....etc and 1 article about “Europe travelling” is it possible to assign the article to Germany destination, and also to France? Thank you

Hi. After more than 6 hours and 3 clean installations, the import of demo content is still not working. The PHP version is > 7 and the setup you recomand is in place (even higher values). I saw in comments that lot of people had this issue… seems is not yet solved.

Please support me to import the demo content asap, as my client is really in hurry with the website launch.

Many thanks and waiting for your quick answer.

Looks like a great theme, but looking at all the negative review and testing the page for SEO purposes I can see that those still have not been addressed. Sadly due to these facts I will have to look somewhere else, except if you have timelines when the SEO issues (like H1) will be fixed and updated.

Hi there,

Thanks for taking an interest!

If you refer to H3 tag in single post title there is a workaround and you can simply edit template file in charge on this location:

backpacktraveler\framework\modules\blog\templates\singles\centered\post.php

Have a look: https://www.screencast.com/t/pEELqBS2X8s

It has been added as a feature request for future theme updates and will for sure be considered as an addition.

Thanks and let us know if you have any additional questions.
