Hi, congrats on the theme! Do you know why the slider stopped working and also the hero photo on posts? this happened since last update. sliders just show a gray background and the loading circle forever. Thanks!
Hey Maria,
Thanks for the kind words, happy you’re enjoying Zeen 
I’m not aware of any slider issues – please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and someone from support can help investigate what is going on. Just ensure to share the relevant urls.

Hi, my author’s profile pics aren’t showing up in their bios on each blog post. It’s just a blank screen. I contacted Gravatar and they said it was a theme issue. Is there a way to fix it?
Hey Danasia,
Please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and share your site url – someone from support can help investigate what is going on.
But I can confirm that Gravatar works fine with the theme. They just palmed it off as a theme issue as it’s easier to deflect blame so you ask someone else instead of really investigating what the issue is 
Codetipi
Another question for you, you answered to a post that there would be a way to save individual Tipi blocks and load them in another page (rather than exporting the whole page layout), and it would be added to V4. I’ve looked everywhere but no luck, has it actually been added?
Thanks
Hey Aeon,
This feature is under development! It’s not quite ready yet though, it will be mentioned in the changelog once it’s finished and fully functional 
Codetipi
Thanks for the latest update, it fixed some of text display issues with the Dark/Day mode view, but other parts remain affected:
Image 1 https://ibb.co/XScq96wThis is the default post bundled with Zeen, when switching to day mode view, notice the text is not switching nor adapting to the background color (affected text is highlighted in blue)
Image 2 https://ibb.co/2qCJP3kThe stars widget shows a dark square which I presume was meant for the dark view mode
Hey there,
Yeah this is actually a bigger issue than it seems, basically if you set a site to be dark by default via theme background options, etc, and then you want to give visitors an option to change it to light, it’s a lot more complicated than having a light site with dark mode. This will be patched up eventually, but it will take a bit longer due to the complexity!
Codetipi
Hey Chris, the thing is, I didnt change the background to dark since I imported the demo layout and tackled it as is, I wanted to make sure it adheres to the Dark/Light switch option, so yes the default layout should at least be compatible with the switch view mode, but if the users opt to set their backgrounds to dark mode, ten they’ll have to deal with the outcome.
Hey there,
I know we spoke about all this in the ticket already days ago, so just writing here to close this comment too 
Codetipi
Yup, no problem.

Hi can Zeen-robots homepage be created/imported in Gutenberg or we will have to use tipi builder only
Hi there,
Thanks for checking out Zeen – the Robots Homepage specifically is a Tipi Builder exclusive layout and can’t be done in Gutenberg. However, if you use Zeen Robots and use Tipi Builder on the homepage, you can still use Gutenberg on all other pages/posts if you desire.
Hope this helps.
Codetipi
Is there a way to have the page editor use the background color of the website? I have an issue where the text is VERY hard to read in edit mode because my theme is quite dark and the default Wordpress block editor has a white background…
Hey Requnix,
I can confirm this is actually marked as a top priority improvement so will happen in an update soon.
Codetipi
That would be AWESOME. Thanks a ton!
It’s no problem 
I was wondering if you guys ever plan on adding Flipboard for Zeen Social Icons. I’ve been asking for this since day 1 and I was told is going to be implemeneted in a future update. 2 years later and I see that you still prioritize other networks 
Hey there,
Can you share an exact example url from Flipboard just to understand how you would like to use it? Flipboard is already an option in the share block, but I’ll look into it getting added for the social icons.
Codetipi
Hi, I am referring to the social media icons/links, not the share buttons. I mentioned above the Zeen Social Icons widget. You can see here more info: https://themeforest.net/item/zeen-next-generation-magazine-wordpress-theme/22709856/comments?page=79&filter=all#comment_26009228
For example, in your Volar demo, on the left side of the header you have 3 social media links: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. What if you want to add a link to a Flipboard magazine? In this case you will need a Flipboard icon and an option to add the link for it.
Here’s an example of a Flipboard magazine: https://flipboard.com/@Buzzfeed
I don’t know how to explain this any other way. Let me know if you need more details.
Ah gotcha, I think this can be indeed added to an update soon. I’ve added it to the dev list.
Thanks!
Hi! Just wanted to ask that the theme does minify CSS, JS, HTML. Should I disable it if I’m using Cloudflare’s Auto Minify or can they both work fine together?
Hey Roman,
The theme can only use its own minified JS/CSS files. You should use both options as a theme can’t (shouldn’t!) try to minify plugin or other external files.
Codetipi
Heya,
Why can’t i see my tickets from 2021 in ticksy?

Trying to find the ticket for CSS to change color of titles of submenu. I need only bottom titles to be green. https://prnt.sc/1qudsqi neweuropa.eu
Hey Gothic,
I’m not 100% sure, you should be able to see your tickets. You may need to contact Ticksy directly though about it, as they control the platform and are able to look into platform issues.
Codetipi
I dont have support anymore, but i see i didn’t got a proper answer: https://codetipi.ticksy.com//ticket/2755056 Can you please give the CSS to change only submenu’s top or bottom titles color? https://prnt.sc/1qynv5e
Are you not able to see the contents of that ticket? is that what you mean? Are you logged in with the correct account?
If i search ‘new europa’ my 2021 tickets are visible.
But didn’t got an answer for my last ticket: https://codetipi.ticksy.com//ticket/2755056 > https://prnt.sc/1qysa25
Can you please give the CSS to change only submenu’s top or bottom titles color? https://prnt.sc/1qynv5e
Hey again,
Ah I see, in the ticket you say you didn’t get an answer for this is the support team’s custom css snippet they shared:
.site-header .bg-area {box-shadow: 0 5px 7px -6px rgb(102 153 255);}
Did that not help?
Please open a new ticket for the new css requests, the support team will happily give you a hand.
Codetipi
Im obviously not talking about the header, but the sub-menu titles.
Also, icons aren’t showing: https://neweuropa.eu/
Just learned you dont need css to change submenu title colors, as it adapts to base accent color.
Ah there you go then 
Hi there does Zeen work with the “The SEO Framework”? Thanx in advance
Hey Gulriz73,
Thanks for checking out Zeen 
The theme hasn’t been officially tested with that plugin, but I’m sure it’ll work fine. If you have any issues with Zeen + the plugin, you can open a ticket in the Codetipi support system and it’ll be looked into and fixed if possible.
Codetipi
Hi I hope you can help. Zeen seem to be messing up big time. This is particularly after new update and with the Tipi builder. I have been trying to edit pages but I am not allowed to add any text or try to save edits at all. I have numerous screenshots to show you but there is no way of uploading it here. I cannot open a support ticket as my support expired and have to beg for support here. I am trying various ways to see how it can be resolved and tried in 5 browsers and does not work at all. I have tried to add a headline, quote or anything where text is, but the editor does not even show. Clicking in the text space just does a wonky dance and the block jumps around on the page. I have tried editing the search bar to change its colour, but I cannot do that either. Additionally images does not show or selective images shows when its convenient for them. I cannot colour text or fonts and just a mess for now, and beyond frustrating… Please advise and assist in this regard. My thanks
Any help here?
Hi there,
Please open a ticket in the official support system – http://codetipi.ticksy.com someone from the support team will happily help you out 
Codetipi
Thanks for your response but Yep. exactly what I explained in the first message. I then again tried to open a support ticket and voila – same response “Sorry, support for this Envato Market purchase code has expired. You will need to extend support or purchase a new license”. That is why I am posting here for there is no other place to contact you for assistance to a problem that I cannot hope to fix. Your guidance could be invaluable here.
Hi again,
Ah right – you do need valid support to get any kind of theme support on Themeforest and be able to open a new support ticket (although the same applies to any digital service/product out there), you can learn how to renew it with this official guide: https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us/articles/207886473-Extending-and-Renewing-Item-Support
Hope this helps.

NEW BUYERS BE AWARE: So you are saying I am stuck with a valid purchased product but if I do not pay you more I cannot get help with a Theme that is not working on my site. I hope YOU who read this, learn from this experience in deciding if it is worth buying this Theme and 6 months down the line you are stuck if something goes wrong. This is the problem with developers and greed. YOU NEEDED US to get you to this point and now that you have your 4000+ sales we are ok to be discarded because new suckers will buy your theme on the reputation we helped you built. If this was a pre-sales thing you would have jumped through hoops. It is beyond unprofessional and downright disgusting and after 25 years of doing this, it is my first time devs wont even offer an iota of insight of what could be causing the tipi builder to not work. It is only you that can solve this and there are thousands of developers who offer their support unequivocally for even the thousands of free Wordpress plugins. I hope this ends with a consideration for your loyal customers, of which I have been – and it helps to change your mind for New Buyers of your Theme.
Hi again,
I’m sorry you feel this way, but this is Themeforest support policy – nothing to do with Codetipi.
With that being said, the theme and Tipi Builder are working 100% well on the demo sites, as well as the local development sites and no other users have reported the issue you describe, so it’s highly likely an isolated issue on your site and needs to be investigated. It is impossible to do that type of thing via this extremely basic comments system – which is why there’s a proper support system ( https://codetipi.ticksy.com ) with advanced features to make support possible such as threaded conversations, private responses to share sensitive credentials, upload attachment/screenshot features to quickly show things, etc.
As well, it’s important to keep in mind that a huge percentage of user reported issues are not due to the theme, that’s why they need to be investigated properly to know the source of the issue. This is why Themeforest support policy is the way it is.
Hope this info helps.

Hello dear Codetipi team. Any news regarding update v.4.1 ? 
Hey David,
A new bugfix update is coming out today, v4.1 is under development too and will be out once it’s got a nice amount of improvements and new features 
Codetipi
Hey there, loving the Woo options, I see Product Categories are now in the Woo Filter, that’s great as it was a request I made, but the Filter itself could still do with a few improvements:
-Every use of the Filter reloads the Shop page and closes the Filter, is it possible to just have it change the results in the background in “real time”, so to speak?
-I am not able to change the language of the “Close(X)” text in the upper right of the Filter overlay. A simple cross like the one in the Mobile Menu would be much better.
-In the Widget area there is a Widget called Active Product Filters that can be inserted in the Woocommerce Filters Area, but one appears by default (in English) at the top of the Filter overlay when a selection is made, and you guessed it, I cannot change the language of this one either.
-Having colored circles in the Filter Products by Attributes filter as an option would be great, as “Color” is a very common attribute.
Thanks!
Hey Aeon,
Loving that you’re loving the new features 
But please open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and someone from support will happily try to help out – not sure it can all be done, but I’m sure some are.

Currently you can add the “sponsored” tag to the front end of a post, at the top, indicating that the content is a sponsored post. However, we would like the similar yellow tag on the front end of post lists and grids. As we run a news website, it is important that we differentiate between sponsored and non-sponsored content.
Also, it is possible to change the text of the “sponsored” tag, and also the tag colour? Lastly, the sponsor logo that you can upload doesn’t have a limitation or a styling per say. Can we set it such that its a fixed sized, round in shape and all? Its fine if its not possible, but was hoping to render similar to how you have shown the article.
I opened a support ticket with this topic. i hope you can help.
Hey Mortgage,
Apologies for the delay here, but I see your tickets were all answered already in the support system 
Codetipi
Can your “Zeen | Next Generation Magazine WordPress Theme” be used as a news aggregator? If yes, do I need an additional plugin? or does it come aggregator ready?
Hey JackieBiz,
Thanks for checking out Zeen and apologies for the delayed response.
The theme doesn’t have any automatic news aggregator functionality out of the box, so you will need a plugin to achieve that. Any News Aggregator plugin that works on the default theme (TwentyTwenty for example) will work the same on Zeen – so if you have a favorite plugin, test it there to know if it’ll work in Zeen.
Hope this helps.

Hey! Love the theme! If anyone else is reading this and thinking about buying it… DO IT! You won’t regret it!
I have a simple question. On the homepage of the Wild demo, I am using your full screen post layout, which is beautiful by the way. However it looks like it is darkening the image a tad bit. Is there a way to not darken this? I can’t find it in the Tipi Builder options. Maybe a CSS code I can paste for this?
Pffffft… Forget it! I figured it out! Thanks!
Hey Carson,
As ever, thanks for the kind words
And really glad it’s all good now!

Hi, I’ve renewed my support for another 6 months, and am trying to open a ticket on ticksy, but it keeps saying that my license has expired and that I need to renew support or buy another license.
Ok it worked now. I guess it only needed some more minutes 
Hey Lunatic,
Happy to hear it’s all good, but yeah to confirm Envato’s API refreshes itself after every X minutes/hours, which is why some times it can take time for the new renewal to appear 
Codetipi
Is this theme fully compatible with Elementor?
Also, I don’t see your stock tipi builder. It’s gutenburg.
Hey Carson,
Yeah the theme is compatible with Elementor, some users use it with no issues.
Re: Tipi builder – if you can’t see it, open a ticket at http://codetipi.ticksy.com and share all the relevant info (where you can’t see it, when did it disappear, etc) and the support team can look into it and try to help.

Hi there,
I forgot to check but…Zeen doesnt have a table of contents does it? If not can you guys consider adding that feature its very helpful and I hate to use outside plugins it also helps with SEO other than that missing feature Zeen is EVERYTHING..lol thanks!
Hey there,
Currently not, but it’s been on the dev to-do list for some time – just been trying to figure out the ideal future-proof way to implement it 
Codetipi
Can I change the post type for a particular post?
I have some that require a full page and not one inside a container with sidebars.
Thanks
Hey Myuption,
By post type, do you mean standard/gallery/video/audio? If so, yeah the theme is compatible with those post formats and you just need to set it to the desired one when editing the post. The option is in the Gutenberg right sidebar, or in the classic editor publish metabox.
If you want to change the layout of a particular post, then yeah, just scroll down to the Zeen Options metabox > Layout tab. In there you can change the width and whether to show a sidebar for the post/page.
Hope this helps.
Codetipi
Thanks, yeah, to remove the sidebar and show full page, will take a peek.
No worries
