Hi when do you update the theme? WPbakery is outdated and needs an update due to security issues.

Thank you for reaching out! The new update of the theme has been released. After you update the theme, navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins to install the new update of WPBakery Page Builder and other bundled plugins.

I am using the Overlap theme and noticed an issue with the built-in lightbox on some of my portfolio single pages. On certain portfolio items (example: https://lunargraphic.hu/portfolio-item/kavezo-arculat/ ), the images in the lightbox open in their full size and require horizontal/vertical scrolling. On other portfolio items (example: https://lunargraphic.hu/portfolio-item/modern-webdesign-kozmetikusoknak/ ), the images open correctly, scaled down to fit the viewport.

There seems to be an inconsistency in how the lightbox handles images. I did not install Elementor or any other lightbox plugin, so this should be coming directly from the theme’s built-in Magnific Popup implementation.

Could you please advise how to ensure that all portfolio images are scaled down to fit within the viewport (verticalFit / contain), regardless of their original size?

Thank you in advance for your help!

I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble with our theme. However, all images in the portfolio items from both links you provided are working fine on my end. They fit perfectly within the lightbox without any scrollbar.

Anyway, if you’re still having this issue on your end, please provide me with more information about your device and the browser you’re using.

Is it possible to create a business directory with your theme?

Thank you for inquiring about our theme!

Unfortunately, this theme doesn’t include the directory and listing feature, then it might not work so good for a business directory.

Hello, When we updated the theme to version 1.6.1, the Theme Options disappeared in the admin dashboard. When that happened, the website logo became the Overlap logo. Is there a new update for the theme releasing soon?

Please ensure you’ve updated the Wyde Core plugin to the latest version.

Also, the new version of Theme Options requires Redux Framework plugin to work, after you update the theme, you will see a notification message on your WordPress admin page, click the link in the notification message, or navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins to install it.

Ok, thank you. we didn’t realize the Redux Framework plugin was not installed.

No problem! Thank you for the update.

Hi. Happy user from Denmark here :-) Is at possible to place a image (flag) in the header, next to search loupe? I would like to make an simple english introduction to our site, so I need to be able to link the image to a specific page. How can I do that? :-) Mads

BTW: Will you push and update including the new WP Bakery Page Builder 7.9 that have been out more than a month?

Here are my answers to your questions:

1. As the menu icon option in this theme doesn’t include a language flag icon, then you will need to install a plugin like the Menu Image plugin which allows you to add an image to the menu item.

2. You will find the documentation in the main download package when you download “All files & documentation”. Or visit our online documentation in the link below: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/

3. We normally include the new version of bundled plugins in the new update of the theme. Anyway, you can manually update it right now by deleting the WPBakery Page Builder from your Plugins screen, then navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins to install the new one from the bundled plugins list.

Thanks for your super advices! :-)

With version 1.5.8 everything runs great with Wyde Core 4.0.3! www.kids-express.de As soon as I update to 1.6.0 and Wyde Core 4.0.8 + Redux Framework nothing happens except the loading icon.

Where is the mistake?

It sounds like there was an error on your site so it couldn’t load the entire page. Try updating all of them again, then you will need to check the browser console to see if there is a script error. If there is no error in the browser console, it means the error is in your server side. Try checking the error log on your host web server, or give me the link to the page where the error occurs so I can check it for you.

1.6.0 Update lädt meine Seite garnichts mehr! Wo ist das Problem?

I’ve updated to the most recent version of the theme. However it seems WP Bakery is broken on portfolio pages. It won’t show me the drag and drop builder to create content. Just the standard Wordpress editor. Kindly suggest how to fix this

By default, WPBakery Page Builder is available for pages only. You will need to select the post types to edit with the page builder under WPBakery Page Builder -> Role Manager -> Post types, change it to “Custom” and select “wyde_portfolio” to enable it on the portfolio page.

Yes I have already done this before I messaged you. But I can’t see the builder. I can just see the default WP backend. Im trying to click on the WP backend Editor Icon on the page but still nothing is happening

There may be plugin conflicts on your site. Try deactivating your plugins to see if it works.

However, if it still doesn’t work, then you will need to send me the login details through the support page below: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205/support

Click the “Contact Author” button to send your message.

Just updated to latest version. Redux Framework shows up as “Recommended” in plugins. It is required. Without it, Theme Options disappears, including all changes made in it!

Actually, it depends on which aspect you’re focusing on. Of course, Redux Framework is required for theme options but the theme options are optional, you may install the theme without theme options. That’s why we’ve set the type of all bundled plugins including Wyde Core as “recommended”.

However, we will change it to “required” in the next update of the theme. Thank you for reporting this issue.

Hi,

I’ve updated the theme to the latest version 1.5.8 and the plugins included in the theme for WPBakery Page Builder 7.0 and Slider Revolution 6.6.15.

Slider Revolution 6.6.15 is considered vulnerable https://really-simple-ssl.com/vulnerability/84c5a19b-ee95-42f2-a053-966a6434f4b2/ .

Do you will update the version to a secure one in the future updates?

Thank you,

Best regards.

Hi, thank you for reaching out!

I just updated the Slider Revolution plugin for the Overlap theme. Please follow the following steps to update it to the latest version (6.6.20):

1. Deactivate, then delete the Slider Revolution from your Plugins screen. Don’t worry, this won’t affect your current data and settings.

2. After you delete it, you will then see a notification message with the link to install the new one. You can also navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins to install the new one from the recommended plugins list.

You can also do the same steps to update the WPBakery Page Builder plugin.

Anyway, we will also include the latest version of all bundled plugins to the next update of the theme.

Perfect, thank you. Best regards

You’re welcome :)

Hello, I have a probleem with the theme that i use from you. My website host says this:

Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Cannot access offset of type string on string in /data/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wyde-core/inc/vendor/redux-framework/inc/classes/class-redux-options-constructor.php:693 Stack trace: #0 /data/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wyde-core/inc/vendor/redux-framework/framework.php(618): Redux_Options_Constructor->default_values() #1 /data/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wyde-core/inc/vendor/redux-framework/inc/classes/class-redux-options-constructor.php(269): ReduxFramework->default_values() #2 /data/wordpress/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(324): Redux_Options_Constructor->register() #3 /data/wordpress/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(348): WP_Hook->apply_filters() #4 /data/wordpress/wp-includes/plugin.php(517): WP_Hook->do_action() #5 /data/wordpress/wp-admin/admin.php(175): do_action() #6 /data/wordpress/wp-admin/plugins.php(10): require_once(’...’) #7 {main} thrown in /data/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/wyde-core/inc/vendor/redux-framework/inc/classes/class-redux-options-constructor.php on line 693

This issue occurs when the plugin Wyde Core is activated while the the theme is active.

Could you help me with this ?

Best regards,

Hi, please ensure you’ve updated Wyde Core plugin to the latest version (4.0.3). You can find the changelog at the bottom of the product page here: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205

I have this latest version on my website for some time. This issue occurs when the plugin Wyde Core is activated while the the theme is active. the provider also says : You may also inform them that the issue is both on PHP 8, and 8.2.

Those errors are from Redux Framework that’s included in Wyde Core plugin. It seems like there is an invalid setting value in the theme options. You will need to click the “Reset All” button in the Theme Options panel to fix this issue.

However, clicking that button will reset your current theme settings to default values. If you’ve made changes to the theme options and would like to backup those values, then you will need to export them under Theme Options -> Settings -> Export Options.

Hi there, Will you be updating to WooCommerce 8. soon? like.. very soon?

I’m sorry to hear you’re having trouble with our theme. This issue has been fixed in the new update of the theme that was just released a few hours ago. You can find the changelog here: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log

Thank you for the fix. Working as intended! :)

Great! Thank you for the update :)

Hey there, I am highly interested in your theme, but it seems to be offline due to a database error. Could you “fix this” maybe? :)

Hi, thank you for reaching out! We just rebooted our database server then it seems to be working fine now.

Again, thank you for reporting this issue.

Hello, its me again.

Finally it worked :

Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

Theme installed successfully.

I have only installed the

themeforest-gaMAGleS-overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme-wordpress-theme.zip

Hope I keep quiet now ;)

Thank you, I have purchased your awsome theme :)

Great! Happy to hear the problem has been resolved :) Thank you for the update.

Hello, Can you help me please ? I have tried to install the zip on wordpress and I got his answer : Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

Theme installation failed.

What Shall I do please, thank you

Best Regards

Sandra

Hi, thank you for reaching out!

It sounds like you’ve downloaded “All files & documentation”, you will need to extract that zip file first. Then you will find the WordPress theme zip file in the folder “WordPress Theme”. Instead, you can choose “Installable WordPress file only” so you can upload that file to install it on your site. You will find the instructions on installation here: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#installation

Hello, is Overlap already compatible for WP verision 6.3.x?

It is, our demo sites are also running on WordPress 6.3.1 and everything is working fine.

Hello,

I have a problem with the ImageGallery-Element. When logged in or using the customizer, everything is fine, but opening the page normally, like in incognito-mode, the arrows are underneath the images an there is a huge white space. The page is this one: https://daniela-mueller.com/caro-christian/

Thanks a lot. Maximilian Gundermann

I’m sorry but I’ve never seen this issue before. Everything is working fine on our site. Actually, the image carousel should automatically resize to fit the size of images in the carousel. It might be a lazyload plugin, try deactivating it to see if it works.

You were right. It was the Smush Plugin. Thanks a lot

That’s good news! Thank you for the update.

I purchased the license for WPBakery Page Builder, but don’t see an option to activate it in admin. Their support says that most likely theme author disabled it in their theme configuration. How can I enable it? Thank you.

We’re sorry but the auto-update feature and the product activation option from WPBakery Page Builder plugin have been disabled by the theme. The WPBakery Page Builder plugin is one of the theme’s bundled plugins, it is included in the theme and it needs to be updated by us (the theme’s author). We usually include the new version of that plugin in the new update of the theme after we’ve tested and checked for any compatibility issue, as you can see in the changelog: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log

If you activate the WPBakery Page Builder, then the auto-update feature would be enabled so you would have the new version of the plugin that hasn’t been tested with the current version of the theme. That’s why you couldn’t find the product activation option from WPBakery Page Builder when using this theme.

However, we will enable the product activation option for you in the next update of the theme so you can activate your purchase code. Also, if you’d like to enable it right now, then you can put the following code into functions.php in your child theme to achieve this: function overlap_show_activation_tab() { vc_manager()->disableUpdater( false ); } add_action( 'vc_before_init', 'overlap_show_activation_tab', 100 );

Hello, we are using the Overlap theme on our site. For some time now the product page looks very strange. Everything runs very narrow. https://www.stadtschwaermer-leipzig.de/produkt/der-stadtschaermer-aus-leipzig/ Can you help us to solve the problem please?

There is a wrong product CSS class included in your single product layout. It shouldn’t be there. It is supposed to be in the products loop only. I’ve never seen this issue before and I’ve no idea why it only happens on your site.

I will be happy to solve this issue for you. Would you mind giving me your site login credentials so I can check it for you? If you’d like you can send me a private message through the contact form on our profile page: https://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact

Thanks a lot.

You’re welcome.

We have downloaded the newest version of the theme (v1.56) but we are finding that it is still using jQuery code that was deprecated years ago. For example in “overlap/inc/metaboxes/js/metabox.js” you can see this code : $( window ).load( function() ... However the load function has been long deprecated and is supposed to be replaced with $( window ).on(“load”,function() ... Is the there a reason the newest theme is using deprecated code?

Thank you for reaching out and providing us with valuable feedback. We’ve addressed this issue and will release the new update soon.

Thank-you for confirming that you are looking to address the deprecated jQuery issue. The Overlap product page currently shows “Last Update : 24 September 2022”—can you comment on how long it may take for the new update?

We’re working on it and will release the new update in a couple of days.
