Hi, i am quite new with wordpress. First question, I don’t understand how to customize the menu. For example, add or change the menu and pages the menu goes to. Second question, i can’t find where to change/customize header and footer social media (twitter…) links. Thank you for your help.
Hi,
Thanks for the purchase 
You can manage the menus using the standard WordPress menu management feature (Appearance > Menus) in your wp-admin backend. Please find the original WP help article here: https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide
Header links in general are WordPress widgets (again one of the standard WordPress features – Appearance > Widgets). You can find a number of widget areas there, the social media related widgets should be in Header Menu Widgets area.
Related to the Footer, we have taken a slightly different approach in our theme comparing to the standard WordPress widgets method. We have done that to increase the flexibility in terms of possible footer layouts.
If you go to Appearance > Customize > Header and Footer you will find a “Footer Page Slug” field. It holds the slug of the page which serves as a footer (by default its value is Footer). So you should go to Pages panel in wp-admin, locate the page called Footer and edit its contents. The changes will be reflected in the footer throughout the site.
Should you need additional help in the process, please submit a ticket at our support site – http://boldthemes.ticksy.com/ and our support team will be glad to assist you.

Thank you all the BoldThemes team. It was helpful.
How to get this candidate theme? http://vox-populi.bold-themes.com/candidate/ Already install the demo site but the female candidate theme diffrent from the actual.
Hi, please send us your page URL, we need to take a closer look at this. You can share it here or send ticket here: https://boldthemes.ticksy.com/
Its ok now.
Hey there. Anyway import demo pages and not the entire setting s?
Hi,
There are two ways. One is to use WP multisite on your side and import each of the demos into a separate site in WP multisite network. Then, you can use clipboard features of Bold Builder to copy the pages from one demo to another without modifying existing settings.
The other is to use btextract=true query parameter on our demo. If you add ?btextract=true to the end of the url of each static page on our demo, you will get the interface with the shortcode structure. For example, to get the shortcode structure of
http://vox-populi.bold-themes.com/party/please visit
http://vox-populi.bold-themes.com/party/?btextract=trueand follow the instructions to create the page on your site with the same structure.
Keep in mind that either way, images will not be imported and you will have to set them up manually, but you will change the images anyway,

Hi
I am an express wordpress theme installation provider on envato studio. You can check my profile at https://studio.envato.com/users/snilesh
Right now I am working on a installation job where I have to install this theme on the buyers website with demo data.
I installed theme and imported “Party” demo data. Everything is working as per demo but the page / post editing is not working in admin section.
If we try to add or edit any page or post we are getting “This page insn’t working” error.
If we deactivate the “Bold Builder”. Then we can see edit page screens with default editor.
Is there any requirement for “Bold Builder” to work?
Right now we have all the “Required Plugins” installed and activated.
Right now we have following plugins installed.
1] Bold Builder 2] Bold Timeline 3] BoldThemes WordPress Importer 4] Contact Form 7 5] Cost Calculator 6] Meta Box 7] Vox Populi Plugin 8] WooCommerce 9] WooSidebars
And we are using Wordpress 5.4.2 on the website.
Please let me know what we are doing wrong??
Page / Post add or Editing pages are not working.
Thanks
Hi, there is no any special requirements for BB. Please submit a ticket here and include site URL and WP admin credentials so that our support team can take a closer look at this.
Are you going to be updating this to use the new Woocommerce templates ??
Hi,
Sure, we will update the metadata related to the WooCommerce templates in next theme update.
By the way, the template version metadata does not influence the theme functionality in any way besides the warning message you get in wp-admin.

Hi, is Vox Populi compatible with bbpress?
Hi,
Vox populi does not provide specific styling for bbpress templates and elements.

Hi, could I please have assistance with the following:
- Reducing the font size of the ‘Heading’ and date of my blog Posts - Removing the comment symbol on the title / disabling the option to leave comments
Images here: https://imgur.com/a/gBag6q0
Thanks in advance!
Hi,
Please try adding the following css to Additional CSS field of Appearance > Customize
.single-post .btArticleHeadline .btArticleComments {
display: none;
}
.single-post .btArticleHeadline .btArticleDate::after {
display: none !important;
}
.single-post .btArticleHeadline .btArticleDate {
font-size: 36px;
}
.single-post .btArticleHeadline .bt_bb_headline_content {
font-size: 24px;
}
.single-post .btArticleHeadline .btArticleCategories {
font-size: 32px;
}
The first two hide the number of comments on single post. Other three set the font size for the date, title and categories. Please adjust the numbers accordingly.
Disabling the comments is a general WordPress feature and is not related to specific theme functionality – please refer to the following article for explanation: https://kinsta.com/blog/wordpress-disable-comments/
In addition, should you need additional assistance, please submit the ticket at our support site – http://boldthemes.ticksy.com/ and our support team will be glad to help you.

Brilliant, thanks. Have sent a follow up ticket on the support site.
Really impressed with the theme in general, if anyone is considering purchasing, I can highly recommend.
Hello, how to insert my purchase code. And i cant insert demo content
Hi,
Thanks for your purchase.
You do not have to insert your purchase code, the theme does not have any requirements related to license activation, although keep in mind that you can use one license for one project (site).
Related to the demo content import, please refer to the Getting started section of theme documentation – http://documentation.bold-themes.com/vox-populi/getting-started/, you can find detailed steps related to theme installation and demo content import procedures there.
Should you need assistance in the process, please submit a ticket at our support site – https://boldthemes.ticksy.com/ and our support team will be glad to help you.

Hi there.. Is the theme compatible with Revolution Slider?
Hi, it has not been tested with it, but it should work. If you purchase our theme and find out that it does not suit your needs, you can request a refund and we will approve it.
Do you have a recommendation for accepting donations via this Theme. For example, what tool would connect with the existing button options for giving.
Not really, you may try to search here for some 3rd party plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ , e.g. this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/give/
How could I have the donation buttons trigger shortcode rather than a link. For example, I need it to trigger the GiveWP modal option.
Hi,
We have never worked with GiveWP but we guess that the most straightforward way is to use GiveWP shortcodes instead of default button page elements. You can place third party shortcodes by using text element in Bold Builder.
Anyhow, please consult GiveWP documentation and support for instructions on how to implement modal options of GiveWP – we are not able to support third party plugins which do not come packaged with the theme – https://themeforest.net/page/item_support_policy.

I just downloaded this and went to install it- I keep getting an “theme incompatible” error. Any ideas on why or what I can do to fix this?
This needs closer inspection by our support team. Please submit a ticket here with more details included (your site URL and description of where and when do you see this error): https://boldthemes.ticksy.com/
Hi,
I like this layout so much i want to purchase it again for another website. I’ve never bought a second license before. do i just go through and purchase like i did the first one or is there something different i need to do? Thank you
Hi,
We are really glad that you like the theme. You should purchase the license like you did the first one, there is nothing different in the licensing process.
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team
Just did
Thank you!
There is no portfolio grid shortcode. How can I implement Portfolio items?
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us. We have escalated the issue to our developers. We will get back to you once we get additional info from them, most likely on Monday.
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team
Hi,
Unfortunately, due to the nature of the theme, portfolio grid was never not part of the theme’s functionality. If you take a look at our demos, you will see that portfolio grid is not presented.
Out of the box, you can use classic portfolio archives or you can use third party portfolio plugin if you need the grid specifically. We will see to add the grid in one of the future theme releases.
Thanks for understanding.
Kind regards,

HOME PAGE – CANDIDATE 1 3 quick questions…
1. is the api google map free or will i need to purchase it from google?
2. the twitter account slider, can i only use a twitter account that i have access too or can i link it up to a candidate username?
3. i have never used bold page builder plug in. is it a free plug in or would i need to purchase it?
Thank you!
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us. Please find the answers below:
1. In general, google maps api is not free, but you get a monthly credit from them of 200 USD and if you do not exceed this number, you do not have to pay anything. This amounts to some 40,000 API requests per month. As an alternative, you can use Open Maps API with the theme which is free (the theme supports it out of the box)
2. Yes, you can link to a candidate username, although you need to create api credentials using your account.
3. It is free, you do not need to purchase it.
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team
LOVING THIS LAYOUT! So smooth and easy. One question what is open maps api and how do i hook it up?
Hi,
Thanks
We are really glad the theme works for you…
OpenStreetMap element works the same way the Google Maps one does – except you do not need API key. Try placing OpenStreetMap element on the page and then add location to it by clicking the + icon on OpenStreetElement Toolbar.
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team.
Hi there! Beautiiful theme. Would like to purchase, but I see that the ‘DONATE’ button doesn’t have any functionality behind it. Would it be possible for you to integrate this? Thanks!
Hi,
Thanks a lot and thanks for contacting us. You are right, donate button does not have any functionality behind it and the theme does not donation functionality out of the box.
On the other hand, you can easily link the featured button to a third party donation service like PayPal donate button and others. You can aslo link the button to a WooCommerce donation based functionality. So, you have a full freedom of using third party donation solution.
Kind regards,

Hello! I’ve purchased this theme via a diff account (I can provide licensing details). I am having a series of issues. The main is – naturally – the unresponsiveness of the images placed as backgrounds on rows. This is a crucial system today, when “no coding required” is a selling point! My second issue is with changes made via Customization (wp based). No logo or change of Main and Secondary colors are being saved. Any thoughts?
Regards, Theo
Hi,
Related to the issue with Customization panel – here is how the Customizer settings generally work
The settings in the Appearance > Customize panel are global, meaning that they influence every page on the site by default.
On the other hand, you have an option to override these settings on per page basis. If you take a look at the bottom of the page edit form, you will notice Override Global Setting part in Settings Section – here you can override global settings for every page.
You probably have a logo and colors related overrides set on the home page and it caused the problem. Try removing logo and color related overrides on pages with issues.
Related to responsiveness of background images, there is no silver bullet solutions to this – can you please send us the url of the page with the issue so we can suggest specific solution.
Kind regards,

Hi,
I’m considering purchasing this theme!
However, is it possible to add a donate button to the main menu (both for online and mobile devices)? Similar to the way this theme has the red donate button which is responsive on online and mobile devices: https://velikorodnov.com/dev/inforward/
Also, I noticed in the mobile version, the picture of Sarah Park doesn’t seem responsive. Half of her face is cut off.
Finally, do you have a landing page option like this? https://velikorodnov.com/dev/inforward/landing-page/
I love this theme and would love to buy it, but was wondering if these things could be fixed before doing so.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thanks for contacting us. Neither of these things are possible out of the box – but you can achieve them using few lines of custom CSS code – the section background image can be repositioned based on the screen width or even completely replaced, and the donate button can get position: fixed also based on screen width.
Kind regards,
BoldThemes team
Wonderful Design! Congratulations 
Thanks a lot!
