Hello alinux091

Thank you for your message.

We checked your website on mobile but weren’t able to reproduce the issue on our end; everything appears to display normally.

In such cases, this behavior is usually related to either outdated files or a conflict with a third-party plugin. We recommend ensuring the theme and all required plugins are fully up to date, then temporarily disabling any additional third-party plugins to see if the issue persists.

Best Regards.

Hi. How do we get rid of the PreConnect to Google Fonts, if Google Fonts are not being used? In your demo, https://blade.greatives.eu/, you have it on line 13 and 14. Is this simply in a php file somewhere? If you can confirm the file, that would be good.

Many companies use their own fonts, and too many “preconnects” are bad. Thanks.

Hi 79design

The preconnect to Google Fonts is added by the theme for performance reasons. There isn’t a built-in option to disable it.

If you’d like to remove it, you can search within the theme files for the function google_fonts_preconnect. From there, how you choose to modify or remove it is entirely up to your implementation.

Best Regards.

Dear Theme-Devs,

having audited our website’s performance via YellowLabs, there are quite a few issues with old prefixes in the parent theme’s CSS that should be addressed and cleaned up to not carry around any unnecessary bloat…

This is what the warning reads:

Many property prefixes such as moz or webkit are not needed anymore, or by very few people. Sometimes, they have never even existed. You can remove them or replace them with the non-prefixed version. This will help reducing your stylesheets weight.

This is the list of the offenders (may not 100% be routed in the theme CSS but a huge amount of it):

  • -webkit-transform was required by Android Browser 4.4, Chrome 35, iOS Safari 8.1, Opera 22, Safari 8 and earlier

  • -moz-backface-visibility was required by Firefox 15 and earlier
  • -ms-backface-visibility prefix is no longer supported
  • -moz-transform was required by Firefox 15 and earlier

And one old IE6 fix: * html .clearfix

Would love to see this fixed in a future release. Thx!

Hi EVANCEnet,

Thank you for your detailed feedback, and apologies for the delayed response.

We will review this internally with our development team. However, please note that this theme was originally released back in 2015, and a full cleanup/refactoring of legacy CSS (such as vendor prefixes) would require significant structural changes, which are quite complex to implement at this stage.

For this reason, we cannot make any promises regarding such improvements in future updates, but your feedback is definitely noted.

Best Regards.

Hi, we have a developer who did our website but we are unable to update or upgrade the website since we dont have a key , can we purchase a key and activate the website separately for us to get the updates ?

Hi wazalendomediake,

Thank you for your message.

Our theme is sold exclusively on ThemeForest, and updates are provided only through a valid ThemeForest purchase. There is no separate license key that can be purchased or activated outside of ThemeForest.

If you currently don’t have access to the ThemeForest account used for the original purchase, the only way to receive updates is to purchase the theme again using your own ThemeForest account. Once purchased, you’ll be able to download the latest version and receive future updates as usual.

If you have any questions about the update process after purchase, feel free to contact our agents. They will be happy to help.

Best regards.

Hello, when are you going to upgrade WooCommerce\Templates to 10.x? We are having issues updating our products.

Hi there,

Thanks for your message! You should not experience any functionality issues due to the outdated WooCommerce templates; everything should still work correctly. That said, we’re planning to update all our older themes, including Blade, within this month.

Best Regards.

Hi, Can I use Elementor Page builder with your theme instead of WP Bakery Page Builder? Thanks

Hi fredjacobs – thanks for your message.

We have not tested our theme with the Elementor builder. Blade was designed to be compatible with our enhanced WPBakery page builder.

Best regards.

Hello there, I am very happy with your nice theme, thanks so much. I am only missing a list of available icons, that can be used with menu items, when they are displayed as buttons. It is very annoying to click all of them and check them in the frontend to get an impression. So is there any overview available? And futher more, are there icons for accessibility functions, like Simple Language, etc.? That would be really great! If not, can those specific icons be added?

Hi again!

It works if you copy the code from Font Awesome—https://fontawesome.com/search—and place it in the Navigation Label field. This is not the Label Text.

If you need further assistance, don’t hesitate to contact our agents at https://greatives.ticksy.com/. We provide support exclusively there. Thank you!

Best Regards.

Great, it works, I have found the correct field. Thanks for your quick help!

You’re welcome!

I recently updated blade v3 theme on a client’s website and rev slider says there is an update available (6.7.23) theme currently has 6.7.21. Am I able to get the lastest version for you guys?

Hi there – thanks for using Blade.

After reviewing their compatibility, we occasionally upload the newest plugin versions to our repository. Therefore, I expect you will soon be notified about the update in your WP dashboard. However, if it is urgent for you, please get in touch with our support agents.

Best Regards.

Hi, we have updated the theme to the latest version and a warning has come out about the presence of obsolete copies of some WooCommerce template files. Is it possible to update them? We are having problems with the offers applied to the products and we assume it is due to this incompatibility.

Hi awmsolutions

We know the templates are outdated, but we cannot confirm any functionality issues resulting from them. We will undoubtedly include updates in the next theme release.

Best regards.

This came from a client but they are having an issue with the Gutenberg editor having the entire editor container pushed to the left side rather than being centered on the screen. They have the latest Wordpress version, latest version of the blade theme and latest Blade Extension plugin. Is this a known issue?

Hi there,

The Gutenberg editor functions properly in supported posts, blog posts, and pages. However, adjustments may be necessary if used in a custom post type.

Best Regards.

Hi. TikTok icon available at social icons?

Hi demenyzo

The TikTok icon is already available. Please check in Theme Options > Social Media.

Best Regards.

Hi are the theme and plugins being updated for Wordpress? I’m having the same security issues as the previous comments with WPBakery but not using Reduxe. Thanks!

Hi eric-lendistry – thanks for writing in.

We upload the external plugins in our repository so users can get these updates without updating the theme. This is a custom mechanism created by our developers.

Best Regards.

Oh thank you! Got everything squared away.

That’s great! You’re welcome. :)

Hi, WPBakery and Reduxe framework had a security updates. You will update the theme and add a new version out? Thx!

Hi rtomo

We have uploaded the latest version of the WPBakery page builder to our repository. You will soon receive an update prompt message in your dashboard. The Redux is embedded in our theme, so no action is required on your end.

Best Regards.

Hi there! Very nice theme, thanks a lot. At the moment I am receiving warnings about updating WPBakery pagebuilder. Will you please publish an update of your theme and plugins, so that WPBakery pagebuilder could be updated to a secure new version? Thanks!

Hi there – thanks for using Blade.

We’ve uploaded the new version of the WPBakery page builder to our repository, so you should see a prompt to update it.

Just double-check that you have the latest theme version – https://updates.greatives.eu/blade/

Best Regards.

Great, thanks!!

You’re welcome!

Is there a way to use WPBakery Page Builder pro? I have a key but cant see where to add it. It looks like it is blocked.

Hello The_Hatter

You need to enable the Page Builder Auto Update option in Theme Options > Miscellaneous > Page Builder Addons.

Best Regards.

Hi there. Any plans to upgrade the theme, to include the latest 7.4 WP Bakery, as there are ‘red flags’ that 7.2 is considered a problem for security.

After the checkout on my website, there is an “Invalid payment method. Please input a new card number.” This issue is only occuring when the theme Blade is active alongside its required plugins and WooCommerce and WooPayments plugins. Orders go through but as Failed. Once the theme is switched from Blade to Twenty Twenty One ( with the same WooCommerce and WooPayments plugins ), there is no Invalid Payment issue and orders do not fail. Please check the screenshot from the Orders page: https://prnt.sc/orte5GafGE7D

Also please find two attached documents. One is the Blade theme system report and the other is the WooCommerce system report.

The following error is found in the debug log when the order Fails, maybe it is related to the issue: [17-Nov-2023 08:52:54 UTC] PHP Deprecated: Function WC_Cart->tax_display_cart was called with an argument that is deprecated since version 4.4! Use WC_Cart->get_tax_price_display_mode() instead. in /home/carestaffingpros/public_html/lampkinfoundation.org/wp-includes/functions.php on line 6031 [17-Nov-2023 08:52:57 UTC] The WC_Cart->tax_display_cart argument is deprecated since version 4.4. Use WC_Cart->get_tax_price_display_mode() instead.

Please check this for us and help us resolve the issue.

Hi there – thanks for your feedback.

We are aware of the issue, and our developers have already fixed it. A new theme version will be released soon to include the fix.

Best Regards.

I tried disabling all the other plugins and just using the ones with the theme but no change. some of the demos have some row backgrounds in color, so I know is possible I just wish to know how? help?!?

Hi there – thanks for using Blade.

​Hiya, understand that I got your theme from elements but I am hoping you can help me. I have an error with a site which I have used your theme www.t**.co.uk If I add something to the basket, it shows if you click the basket from the fly out the content, it just shows a grey strip with no contents showing?

Would really appreciate if you can give guidance on how to fix this please, it always has worked but now seems to have stopped, don’t know if this is a woocommerce update that has caused an issue?

Thank you for your time

Hi there – thanks for using Blade.

​Hi,

Google PageSpeed test don’t like the user-scalable=no value.

You have planning to add options to admin interface to change that value or you have a code snipet to overwrite that?

Or i need to overwrite the full blade_grve_print_meta_tags function?

Regards, Tamas​

Hi Tamas,

I will inform our developers, and if possible, they will add an option in the next theme release.

Best Regards.

Thank You, i’ll be back for that update and wait for that. :)

You are welcome.
