Issue with formatting: According to Google themselves, you shouldn’t use html headings to style text, they should only be used for in-content hierarchically structured headings.

Source: https://developers.google.com/style/semantic-tagging (“Don’t use the heading elements (such as h1 and h2) to visually style text; instead, use those elements only for hierarchically structured headings, and use CSS for visual style.”)

Problem: LOTS of Zeen’s main navigation and sidebar features are using headings.

Hey there,

Zeen doesn’t use HTML headings to style text. All HTML headings used are for hierarchy purposes only. Posts titles are hierarchal so are always headings.

Styling applied to these elements is not done by styling the heading html either, it’s done via classes :)

Hello, i was looking to make a basic shop using Zeen with no more than 10 physical products. What additional plugin would i need to make it work? Thanks

Hey Pokiesoz,

You would only need an ecommerce plugin, such as WooCommerce + Zeen to do that :)

Hello Codetipi.

I am trying to insert post boxes in a page and it seems all “classic” ways to insert these boxes (classic a, classic b, classic c…) won´t work, it appears the rotating waiting icon and it stops there, most of other boxes work just fine.

Please advice

Thanks

Hey there,

Hi, is there any chance to see a lightbox feature in the future ?

Hey Taunyo,

The theme already has lightbox features – you can have a normal lightbox or one that smoothly zooms in the image when you click on one. What exactly are you hoping for?

Hi, In dark video sub-template, tags and misc (like source) are disappeared. how can I active them to show?

Hey Mimyarahmadi,

I’m not 100% sure where you’re referring to – please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and include the relevant url so the support team can investigate.

Hi, Editor Color Pallets in Gutenberg editor has changed to default after WordPress updated to version 5.5.1.

Hm, I’m really unsure what you’re referring to. Is this to do with the theme? If it is, please open the ticket so someone from support can investigate.

Hello friends.

First, I love ZEEN theme, very powerful and user friendly.

I can reach very similar magazine style like this : https://www.gq-magazine.co.uk/lifestyle ...with Zeen.

One suggestion: Can I ask you for the menu in header just simple underlinked on hoover? (The green line) This is important for my brand new magazine style. Thank you very much in advance and best regards, David from https://digizin.cz

Hey David,

Love that you love it :)

That’s a good suggestion, I think that can be added via an update!

Menu behind Gallery: https://prnt.sc/umv1ml

Hey there,

Please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com about this so the support team can investigate and figure it out.

Hi guys – just noticed on post format Gallery – when the gallery at the top of the post is set to normal width there is an excellent ‘enlarge’ button to enlarge the gallery on the screen. This works brilliantly on desktop but noticed when used on mobile, clicking the enlarge button makes the gallery disappear and freezes the screen.

Not sure if we have a setting wrong but can’t see a way to fix it or change appearance for mobile – any advice would be great – thanks :)

Hey there,

Ah you know what, I don’t think that feature is actually meant to be visible on mobile, due to the tiny screen size vs a desktop screen, and because it’s already full-screen technically.

Will be looked into!

Codetipi

Great – hoping to use the gallery setting but with a simple scroll through or lightbox feature on mobile. Thanks for looking in to it. :)

It’s been tweaked in 3.9.5, as it’s already edge to edge on mobile there’s no point in having this feature there :)

The lets review is buggy, buttons disapear, cant add more pros or cons, not even aff link. This is when you add it inside a post using the editor.

This is the video showing the problem https://youtu.be/8AphdxNSS7w

This is happening in a fresh install, all updated and tested in chrome and firefox.

Hey there,

This has already been reported and is currently being patched up.

It’s not buggy though, it’s actually a new issue caused by Gutenberg’s markup changes.

They are constantly changing Gutenberg’s way of working after every update, it’s really annoying and bad for anything that’s created custom Gutenberg blocks (such as Let’s Review).

Hopefully they just make their minds up and stick to a single consistent foundation for Gutenberg :)

Codetipi

Hi codetipi, when editing Tipi Builder content on a page, some blocks do not have the Limit Max Width option. For example, post blocks have this option, but columns and others like the text editor do not.

Even with global width set in the theme customizer, individual Tipi Builder pages override it. It’s useful to have the full page design when creating something like a homepage, but not for individual content pages on a narrow site.

Would you please consider making Limit Max Width available for all blocks? :)

Hey Codings,

Ah interesting find. This will be looked into for sure :)

Codetipi

Thank you, you’re the best!

Would you also consider adding an option to make the WC shop sidebar sticky?

It’s no problem :)

Do you have sticky sidebar option enabled? If so, then all default sidebars should be sticky, if this isn’t the case, please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and share all the details (like the fact you have sticky sidebar option enabled) + the url of the sidebar that isn’t sticky, if you tried disabling all plugins, etc and someone from support can help investigate it.

Hello Codetipi,

the dark mode is not workink well, when loading articles the theme come back white and one half second after go to dark mode. You can see on your demo site is also same.

Also, please can you work on the vidéo player, the first video has to be also into the playlist.

Thanks, regards.

The 3.9.6 update is so great :) Thanks for your great work, CodeTipi I ❤ You ^^

You’re welcome, happy you like the new dark mode system ;)

Hi, can you please tell me what size the emojis (dimensions) have to be? And if you can give me an example of the current emoji or where it is located.

Hey Alex,

They’re SVG’s actually, and they’re around 36px x 36px.

Hope this info helps!

Codetipi

Great, thank you very much

You’re welcome :)

Hi guys – in the Tipi builder for a taxonomy there is no option to choose left or right sidebar when using the ‘default posts’ block. The sidebar defaults to the right – I wonder if that option could please be added maybe at a later date??

I know I can style up the page separately with blocks etc but I need the ‘default posts’ block for a search function I’m building with category+location. I have the sidebar set to ‘left’ in the category edit but once I switch to Tipi edit it defaults to the right and there there is no option to move it to the left – none that I can find anyway. :) Hope this is possible

Hey again,

Hm, I don’t think that particular block has the sidebar location option, can you please send an email to the suggestions email so it can be tracked properly.

Thanks!

the user login icon is does not appear anymore.

Even when i try to overide / fix it via custom css

.tipi-i-user:before { font-family: fontAwesome; content: ”\f1bc”; }

Hey MEMT,

What happened to make it disappear? Because it still works fine on the demo sites (and other user sites). You definitely don’t need any custom code for it to appear.

Open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and include the relevant url so the support team can investigate and help you out with tit.

If i am looking to change the zeen theme to something different then what I already have; is that possible or does it have to be a complete install. I currently have the default Zeen and would like to change it to Robots. Thanks in advance!

Amazing! If I run into any more issues ill resub for support and then get a ticket going. Thank you for taking the time to help out.

I resubbed (6months) for support – I put a ticket through your support system – if you can check that out for me – Thanks!!!

That’s great to hear, hope someone from support was able to help :)

Hi there tipi folk – chicken or egg question – a) is it possible to show breadcrumbs on tipi styled category archive pages? – if not – b) is it possible to show the default category archive page posts in random order?

Ideally need both on the archive pages if at all possible – :)

Hey there,

Sure thing:

a) I believe the breadcrumbs * should * appear in the default title block that you have access to when building a category archive page with the Tipi Builder, have you tried that?

b) You could use custom PHP to override the order to random for your category archives too, search on google for it and you should find a PHP snippet that you can paste into the child theme’s functions.php :)

Hope this helps.

This high-traffic website is using Zeen: https://nextshark.com You should put it in your ‘costumers who use zeen’ list

Hey there,

Thanks for sharing :)

Codetipi

I’m thinking about switching to this theme (it looks great). My one concern is the reactions—it doesn’t seem like there is the ability to add custom ones from the research I’ve done. Is this something that will be added down the line or something that could be a custom solution for a nominal charge? Thanks

Hey Tangerine,

Thanks for checking out Zeen :)

The theme comes with loads of different expressions to choose from – you enable/disable each one and the theme comes with two different emoji designs.

There is also a theme hook that does allow you to use your own reaction images! It’s very easy to do and the documentation explains the easy steps to do it. You can pass your own image code for each expression (can be an image tag or svg code, or anything you want).

Hope this helps.

Hey Christian since the last update, i can save nothing on tipi builder, i v try several time but that load without saving nothing

Thanks for your anwers

Sara

Hey Sara,

Ah not great, try disabling all plugins and clearing caches, if nothing please open a ticket so the support team can investigate properly – https://codetipi.ticksy.com

Codetipi

Hey Christian, i have a message on facekook, i can’t make a ticket on ticksy, even if i ask for a new password an i have also disable plugin but is not working…

Hey Sara,

Ah the Facebook private page messages aren’t checked too often as they’re so buggy and hard to use/share code/files/etc. You need valid support to open a ticket, do you not have it? If you can open it and share admin login details (and have all plugins disabled, except Zeen Engine) someone from support can help and if it still doesn’t work, it’ll be escalated to Chris :)
