Where can I find xml files to import so that the template looks like this demo: https://demo.major-themes.com/aena/aena/
The files contained in the archive are not complete
Good morning,
I’m struggling to get my home page to look like the demo.
If you’re able to reply to me I’ll send you screenshots of my issues.
Hoping to resolve ASAP.
Thank you! 
Hi GotThePassports,
Sorry for the delay in response. Please read the attached documentation file that explains how to import the content.
After importing everything select the style you want in Appearance > Customize.
And don’t forget to attach featured images to posts.

Hi Luke, I’ve done all that, hence my needing actual support. Would you like to switch to mail? I provided my e-mail address to Envato who apparently passed it onto you. Please confirm?
In an attempt to put my frustrations aside for the new year, I’ve spent the past few hours working on the blog and trying to get things to look good. I’ve managed to progress, but there’s still 3 issues with the Atlas setup:
1) Having 3 blocks in the featured category setup. (Seems impossible?)
2) Having the social icons under the user’s details on the right side bar.
3) Inclusion of circle featured images on the Recent Posts in the side bar (widgets show as broken so you can only edit in the live setup).
If anyone else has managed to get this right, I’d love for you to contact me at PR (at) GotThePassports.com
I have had contact with the creator “Luke” (whose name on Envato isn’t Luke?) but he basically doesn’t really care about delivering “what’s on the box” and takes over a week to reply usually – and then another week and then no weeks – so it’s my last hope that another one of the 85 buyers can assist me.
Thank you so much and happy new year! 
PS If you redownload the theme there is now a child version as well – so I’m not even sure which version I’m meant to be using (but I’ve stuck with the original).
Hi Luke, i wish I could add Tiktok to the social network. Is it possible? Thanks!
Hi,
How can i put different category, like the demo, on the Top Featured Category slideshow. I can’t make multiple selections from the drop-down menu.
Thanks for your help!
Greg
Hi Greg,
There’s only one category allowed to be featured.
As an option you can create a new category for all the featured posts and assign all posts that needs to be featured there.
- Luke
Thank you for your quick response Luke.
But in the Aena demo slideshow, I see that different categories are alternated: - PLACERAT - EGESTA - FERMENTUM
Thanks again!
You can add multiple categories per post inculding the featured category.
And enable the checkbox in Appearance > Customize > Content
✔️ Hide Featured Categories from Meta
Thanks a lot for your answers.
But I don’t want to hide the categories in the meta, I want to display different categories in the slideshow as proposed by your demo here https://demo.major-themes.com/aena/aena/
Thanks!
So let’s create a user-journey. For example.
You have posts:
First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth
And Categories:
Alpha, Bravo, Charlie, Featured
You want to feature only posts: First, Third, Fifth
The structure of Posts <> Categories would be like this:
.
First <> Alpha, Bravo, Featured
Second <> Charlie, Bravo
Third <> Charlie, Alpha, Featured
Fourth <> Bravo
Fifth <> Alpha, Charlie, Featured
.
Now you go to Appearance > Customize > Content:
Select:
“Top Featured Category” — Featured
Checkbox:
✔️ Hide Featured Categories from Meta
What posts you’ll see in slider:
.
First with categories Alpha, Bravo
Third with categories: Charlie, Alpha
Fifth with categories: Alpha, Charlie
.
But. The category name “Featured” won’t be shown above the post title (it would be just a technical category).
And this should look exactly like in the demo.
Please let me know if this was helpful
You are a master!! It worked with the Featured thing. Thank you very much for taking the time to explain in detail.
You’re welcome, Greg69
You can leave a review for the theme and support, I would really appreciate it
hi, - how can I make “continue reading” to display more posts? I have issue with that one, under one post it displays 2 other posts and under another just one. I cannot tell where this is being set up. - Also, how can I delete the second menu from the header? so whenever I create a new page it doesn’t link there to it. - and how do I hide page title, if I were to create a static home page, I don’t want it to display its name? thanks!
Hi magdywit,
1. Theme only allows to show previous/next post, if previous post is not available it shows only the next one.
2. In Appearance > Menus you can set Primary and Secondary menus, if secondary menu is set but has no items it won’t be shown.
3. To hide the page title you can go to Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS and copy-paste the code below there:
.content-page .post-header {
display: none;
}
Hope this helps.

hi, how do I change from Aena to atlas look?
Hi magdywit,
In Appearance > Customize > Style Set > choose “Atlas”.
Also you can add featured posts category in Appearance > Customize
And add featured categories in Customize too.
Menus can be created and assigned in Appearance > Menus
Please let me know if this helps
- Luke
I dont have this option apparently (“style set”). I only have identity, colors, header, content, footer, fonts, social networks, menu, widgets, homepage settings and additional CSS..
edit: now I see it is under content…
Hello, could you please add TikTok Social Network to the theme?
Hi Luke, I wrote an E-Mail but got no response.
Hi Ikcora,
Please send me another one to lukestateson@gmail.com because I didn’t receive the previous one.

this theme works with classic editor?
Hi ZeroLN,
No, unfortunately this theme made for the latest Gutenberg editor.
But most features from classic editor should work fine.
- Luke
i love this theme… what features i will lose if i use the classic editor?
Probably some styles in classic editor will not work and classic editor does not support blocks.
More information on new editor: https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/
Hi there, recently purchased your theme.
Having some issues when trying to set the Top Features Layout section.
I have created 3 posts and assigned them to the Top Featured Category.
When setting the layout to `rounded` on the “Concept” style, the preview inside the customize panel works, however even after clicking the publish button, the rendered output of the page seems to default to the existing layout, and does not render as the rounded layout.
If I go back into the Customize theme panel, the settings are persisted, but rendered preview has lost the `rounded` theme design and is still the standard layout (I.e. not the rounded one as specified in the settings)
Am I missing something obvious. Happy to send some screenshots if that might help. Kindly advise.
Thanks & Best Regards
Rogan
Hi Rogan,
It seems like you’ve enabled Style Set in Appearance > Customize > Content.
You should select Style Set > “Custom” to modify the layout.
- Luke
Hi sorry for the delayed response
Ah Fantastic! Thanks that works!
Hi there, just bought the theme but was wondering can you tell me where I download the demo data?
Hi infomolearyie,
Demo data is available in the full theme archive when you download “All files and Documentation”.
Please let me know if this helps.
- Luke
thanks Luke and for coming back so quickly. I’ve imported the files but I don’t seem to have the homepage layout.
Hi,
To set up homepage you should go to Appearance > Customize > Header > Select at least 3 “Featured categories”.
Next Appearance > Customize > Content > Select “Top Featured Category” for slideshow/featured posts on top.
In Appearance > Widgets you can drag-and-drop widgets to “Sidebar” area. For example you can use “Thumbnail Category Posts” and “Profile” widget.
Hope this helps.
- Luke
Hi Luke,
Apologies I know I’m doing something silly. I’ve tried to change all the setting you mentioned but I don’t seem to get any layouts that look like the demo.
No worries
In Appearance > Content > “Style Set” you can change the pre-defined layout.
You can also customize colors in Appearance > Colors.
Hi Luke, is it possible to get the demo of the homepage layout. I keep changing layout but I don’t seem to get the layout on this page – https://preview.themeforest.net/item/aena-content-focused-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/24591905?_ga=2.247144644.1721350049.1610884149-717726938.1603346037
Absolutely.
Please send me an email to support@major-themes.com and i will help you on this.
Hi do you plan on updating this template anytime soon?
Hi cheyna1,
Yes, actually theme update was uploaded today, it should’ve been automatically approved, but it’s currently stuck due to manual review by ThemeForest team, so i’m currently waiting on approval.
It will take no longer than 2-3 days.

Hello! The comments block does not appear within the blog. I am looking for if it is deactivated but I can’t find where!

Hey guys
I have two questions for you:
1. The name of the author is wrong in this section on the website: http://prntscr.com/ug19w6 The actual name can be seen on blog feed or inside a blog,e.g.: http://prntscr.com/ug1a7cBut for some reason, another name is added into that block of “other articles”
2. When I click on “comments” from blog feed (https://prnt.sc/ug1abp), the article opens from the very beginning although this action (clicking on “comments”) should lead to comment section at the bottom of the article instead of it’s beginning (right now, it looks this way after clicking on “comments” https://prnt.sc/ug1ao9)
Please let me know how do I fix these issues.
Best regards, Erika
Hello Erika,
1. Theme does not control or change author names, it shows the default one that is set in WordPress. Could some kind of plugin, would you like me to look into it?
2. Please send me a message at support@major-themes.com with access to WordPress admin panel so i can fix this.
- Luke
Just sent you an email, thanks!
Hi, Everytime I change the header style and save it, it goes back to the original style without taking note of my changes…
Also, how do you make changes to the main menu ? When I modify the main menu, changes don’t appear on the default menu…
Hello ugoogu,
1. This happens if you selected style set, you should set it to “Custom” In WordPress admin panel > Appearance > Customize > Content > Style Set > “Custom”.
2. In Appearance > Menus you should create at least 2 menus and mark checkbox in Display location first “Main menu” and “Secondary menu”.
Please let me know if this helps

Hi, As soon as I select “Custom”, the titles of the articles are displayed outside the images on the home page. I would like to keed all of the Atlas apperance, and just change the header style, without changing the display of the articles on the home page…

Yes it’s possible, please send me a link to your website at support@major-themes.com

Howdy, I came here from a reddit post over 2 years ago claiming this theme is built completely without page builders, so there’s no bloat.
I have looked at god damn dozens of themes. Like newb, I started off looking at the huge bloated themes. Then I researched and found they are horrible coded. But then I was left with the hipster oceanwp + page bulder shit. I don’t want to build a page.
I like some of the layouts here, my only problem is they seem very very feminine. what/how can I do to make it dark theme or make it more masculine? Just the font? I just want a good non ugly theme with some pop that I don’t have to build. So that’s why I want a theme.
Hello TheHanGang77,
Yes absolutely, all my themes are built using only native WordPress features and all options are in one place – native WordPress customizer.
Dark mode is not implemented yet, but you can choose more neutral colors.
For example, this demo has a neutral layout: https://demo.major-themes.com/aena/atlas/
In this layout you can change the accent colors to a more neutral ones: https://demo.major-themes.com/aena/concept/
So if you decide to purchase Aena theme you can contact me at support@major-themes.com and i will help you with customizations.

Thank you for your response.
But would a page builder, if used, ruin this optimized code? Or is it not recommended at all?
WordPress has it’s own page builder “Gutenberg”.
For most common tasks it’s more than enough. You can even extend it with additional blocks using for example Atomic Blocks collection.
Frankly, I can’t recommend any 3rd party page builders and I don’t want to name them or get into advanced details because I respect the developers who work on them. I’ll say one thing – most page builders are not so good in terms of speed, privacy, security, code quality or everything listed together.
Probably there are some really good 3rd page builders, but I have not encountered them yet
Use them or not – It’s up to you.
