Hi, for WooCommerce product pages mobile view, would recommend that you put some sort of dots below the gallery to indicate that there are more images to be swiped. Otherwise it looks like one image and some users can’t find the other ones.

Also, do you know the best way to get out of using the flickity carousel overall? The update got rid of the scrolling gallery and would much rather have that on mobile.

Update for anyone who finds the above comment and wants to make custom Dark Mode modifications…

Just find the CSS selector you want to customize and add this before the rule:

.mode--alt--b

For example if you want to change the excerpt font color in dark mode, you would add this to your style.css in your child theme:

.mode--alt--b .excerpt {
    color: #ffffff !important;
}

Ah gotcha and totally agree. Will look into adding dots there as they should appear. Flickity is a Zeen implementation, so it has full control over it all ;)

Codetipi

P.s can confirm Zeen v4.0.4 update will bring dots to product’s mobile gallery slider ;)

Has the ability to make the ‘Lets Info Up’ box landscape disappeared? I used to be able to choose between portrait and landscape orientations, but now the choice is gone and it just shows as portrait beside my blog text.

Hey Tillyma,

Not at all, the option is still there. In fact, in the latest version you are now able to select a different design option for mobile and desktop too. Go to Appearance > Install plugins to check if you’re on the latest version.

Codetipi

Hmmm… yes I can see the option to select a different mobile design. And I do seem to have the latest plugin for Lets Info Up (1.4.1). But no options for desktop. I’ve taken a screenshot so will open a ticket and send.

Interesting, okay great, see you in the ticket!

Hello, after update 4.0.2 to 4.0.3 galleries made with Justified Image Grid doesn’t works correctly – grid looks ok, but after click on image it doesn’t enlarge. Clicking on image does nothing. JIG – this plugin: https://codecanyon.net/item/justified-image-grid-premium-wordpress-gallery/2594251

Sorry, false alarm, it seems JIG related, not Zeen related. Lightbox, I used, stoped working, another works ok.

Hey Piotr,

Happy to hear it’s all good :)

WooCommerce Issue: Clicking an external affiliate “Buy” link does not actually load the page. The “Buy” button just spins for a second and nothing happens.

This is after updating to 4.0.3…...

I have installed the last version of wordpress (WordPress 5.7) I have a blank white page appearing when I click on any link of the website.

I can see you are aware of the issue by searching the comments here and others are having the same issue.

Please note I have the latest version of Zeen installed as well.

I have been having the issue for more than 1 month now. How come it has not been resolved still. iru.mv is the website.

Please note I can’t open a support ticket as it is expired.

Thank you

Hi there – hope you’re well. I’ve just started using Woocommerce for some of my affiliate links – when I set the product link to the external URL the ‘Buy Now’ button doesn’t work – it just shows a spinning wheel and nothing happens. Please can you advise what I should do? Many thanks…

TROUBLESHOOTING UPDATE: I’ve just deactivated all plugins and tried the Buy Now button again but still not linking to the external link so confident it isn’t a plugin conflict. All themes and plugins are up to date.

Hey again,

Zeen v4.0.3 was submitted earlier today and it includes a fix for this :) Should go live very soon!

Codetipi

Hey guys,

1) Is there a way to have a different Logo/Menu set for certain categories and the articles under those categories?

2) how can I remove the floating icon on the left side https://snipboard.io/uIhjGF.jpg

3) look what happens to the text of the CTA button on smaller screens: https://snipboard.io/aGCnBw.jpg

Hey Chris, is there a list of the differences between the last 3.x version of Zeen and version 4? Given my customizations I’m reluctant to upgrade without first seeing if it makes sense. Thoughts? Thanks!

Thanks much, Chris. Turns out the only thing I had to do was reset my base font sizes, which for some reason dropped down by about 5 px.

That said, it sure would be nice if you could fix the conflict with NextGen Gallery so that I could edit with Tipibuilder without having to turn off that plugin…

Ah I see, there is a minor quirk with responsive typography options at the moment – but it’s been fixed for v4.0.4 which is due out this week, so I’d recommend not changing the font sizes until you update to it to ensure it’s all good.

Chris

FYI: I’ve updated Zeen from 3.9.8.4 to 4.0.2 and it kills the Spotify embeds. I’ve switched back to 3.9.8.4.

Hi again,

Hm, nothing changed with oEmbeds though, although it could be related to the new lazyloading of iframes. Could you please open a ticket and share the exact code you’re using + instructions on where you’re putting it (is it in Gutenberg, Tipi Builder, Classic Editor, etc) so the support team can investigate. If it’s a new issue, it will 100% be patched up and likely be included in the v4.0.3 update.

Chris

Hi Chris, sorry for my late reply. Yes, your hint was right. After turning off the new option “Lazy Load Embedded Iframes + Videos” the Spotify embeds works again. You’re doing a great job.

Thanks for that, I’m fairly certain this will be looked at for one of the upcoming updates either way :)

i’ve used the custom editor for all my work (used gallery posts for the most part) ... i’ve just switched to gutenberg and it seems zeen converts one post at a time … does zeen do a batch conversion (is this possible) ....

Ah yikes, no I wouldn’t bother rolling back WordPress! Bit of a hassle, probably best to wait for a plugin update and do it that way. Until then, you could just leave the old posts.

thought so too

Hi! Congrats for the Zeen 4 update. It did improved my website loading speed. However, I have been trying to optimize my website’s speed based on Zeen. Can you tell me what these are: <path d=”M21.3670886,8.2 C20.8607595,7.6 20.1518987,7.1 19.3417722,7 C19.1392405,7 …” fill=”#444444”> (Maximum DOM Depth)

div class=”entry-content body-color clearfix link-color-wrap progresson” (Maximum Child Elements) This is the only thing left for optimizing. However, with a non-technical background I’m not sure what these are.

Hey Roman,

Really happy you like it :)

<path…. html is an SVG image, I don’t know where you have an SVG on your site but that’s what it would be a part of (the reaction emojis are SVGs for example). However, don’t worry about max dom depth or child elements messages, they are not important and can’t be reduced (Unless your site is a super, super basic site, such as Google.com’s homepage).

Codetipi

I see. Thanks for the reply.

You’re welcome, just so you know though, further improvements are coming in v4.0.4 too :)

Hello, is your great theme compatibile with WP MEDIA FOLDER by Joomunited? Thanks

Hey Mrxfuny,

Thanks for checking out Zeen.

Zeen hasn’t been officially tested with that plugin, however, if you test it on TwentyTwenty theme (default WordPress theme) and it works well there – then it will 99.9% likely work the same in Zeen. This is because Zeen follows best WordPress coding practises so plugins that work with the default theme (also written following best practises) will work similarly in Zeen.

Hope this info helps.

Codetipi

Thank you! Just one more question: I know Zeen it is fully compatible with Buddypress, but how about MyCred plugin? (gamification).

Buddypress and MyCred make a great pair for creating a great community site.

Is MyCred plugin integrated with Zeen too like Buddypress? If not, are you going to go in that direction?

P.S. Sorry for my questions, but I’m looking for a complete solution for my website and it’s hard to find one. Zeen seems to be one of the best news themes available today, but there are a few elements I really care about (like MyCred is) so that’s why I ask

You’re welcome, happy to help.

Yes, the theme is compatible with BuddyPress and has Theme options section for BuddyPress too. However, I’m afraid that the theme has never been tested with MyCred. If you run it on TwentyTwenty theme too, does everything you want from it work as expected? Because if so, it would be the same in Zeen. Style-wise it would likely be very similar to what you see there too. Buttons/general items might automatically inherit Zeen’s style (if the plugin’s code allows for that) but other than that, there is no specific code in Zeen targeting that particular plugin.

Hope this info helps.

Hello. Curious if there is a solution to closing post SVG image lightboxes?

We have several posts that use SVGs (in post not featured image), and when clicked on, the lightbox expands 100% width and height, with no option to close the image or click on the screen to go back to the post.

Perhaps simple CSS to force container height/width? I coulnt find it. Help appreciated.

Hey Afkreative,

I’m not 100% sure what you mean by closing post SVG image. For something like this, please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and share relevant urls where it can all be seen – make sure to point out exactly where it all is too. The support team can investigate and guide you.

Codetipi

Hi. Thanks for the quick response.

I was refering to individual posts – within the content, I have several images that are SVGs. When the image is clicked on, the lightbox opens that SVG image to 100% height/width and there is no option to close the lightbox (like an X in the corner).

I will open a ticket. Thanks again!

Ah I see, I’ve never encountered that in the wild so please do ensure to include the relevant urls so the support team can investigate it and provide guidance over it.

Hi Guys, i want a theme for a video blog and i want to be able to add Ads where ever is possible, ih header, posts, inside posts, to have the big ad in home page in boxed layout us background Is all possible? for example… look this site https://tinyurl.com/jhvaupj3 it has two banners one on the left one on the right for BP

Thanks

Hey there,

Yeah, Zeen can definitely (and easily) create something like that :)

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘)’ in /home/theindie/domains/telvanni.agency/public_html/wp-content/themes/zeen/inc/core/woocommerce.php on line 905

There has been a critical error on this website.

Basically was on PHP 7.2 and my hosing support told me they had to change it to 7.3 otherwise the whole website suddently went down.

Hi there,

V4.0.2 patches this all up. The issue was due to code being used that is not compatible with old PHP versions.

The theme is compatible with all the latest PHP versions, including PHP 8. It’s really recommended to use a modern PHP (at least 7.3), as you’ll get a good performance boost overall.

V4.0.2 will be out in a few hours and has fallback code so it works on older PHP versions too, but I’d really recommend looking at upgrading your PHP version.

Hope this info is useful.

Chris
