This is a malfunction, not support request, so please respond.

Hello,

We have a compatibility issue with an installed plugin (Easy Digital Download). We already contacted them, they make a series of verification and their conclusion is that the theme does interfere with the plugin. We make some tests with WordPress’ default theme and everything was OK. So, probably the theme blocks some plugin’s functions.

We already updated the theme to last version.​ Please advise.

Best regards!

Hi,

Please note that, under the item support policy, we are obliged to keep the theme compatible with the plugins that come packaged with the theme. Easy Digital Download is not one of them.

It is impossible to ensure the compatibility with all plugins in the market.

This does not mean that we can try to resolve your issue, but you will have to provide some additional details and to keep in mind that the only one who have enough knowledge about inner workings of the said plugin are its authors.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

This is for Bold News Plugin v1.6.0. Update hook for bt_load_plugin_textdomain

Function _load_textdomain_just_in_time was called incorrectly. Translation loading for the bt_plugin domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later. (This message was added in version 6.7.0.)

Just wanted to call out changes in 6.7 to how translations are loaded.

For more information you can check the https://make.wordpress.org/core/2024/10/21/i18n-improvements-6-7/ URL.

Hi,

We have release version 1.6.1 which resolves the issue.

Kind regards,

We have released a new version of the theme, please update it and it should resolve the PHP Deprecated notice.

Thanks in advance.

Cant do that.

Hi,

As we can not recreate the issue in our local environment and none of the other users experience similar issue, it is probably related to your specific setup in some way.

Unfortunately, without taking a closer look at your WP instance, we are unable to help :(

Hello, Can the theme be edited with Elementor? What plugins are included in the theme?

Thank you?

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us.

Bold News theme is not compatible with Elementor, you need to use Bold Page Builder with it.

The theme comes with Bold Page Builder and its customized elements suited for the Theme Demos.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

looking to buy these theme, however I see an error in the demo (About Us Page) – https://bold-news.bold-themes.com/main-demo/about-us/,

Notice: Undefined index: HTTP_USER_AGENT in /home/customer/www/bold-news.bold-themes.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bold-news/bold-news.php on line 683/ @admin, you may want to investigate this.

for that reason, I am out. I will check back in a few months.

Strange, we do not see it. Thanks, anyway.

You’ve got some deprecated code in the Framework when running PHP >= 8.2.

``` PHP Deprecated: Optional parameter $post_type declared before required parameter $sticky_arr is implicitly treated as a required parameter in /var/www/html/wp-content/themes/bold-news/php/before_framework.php on line 1525

```​

Hi,

Thanks for the heads up, we have escalated the issue to our developers.

They will release a theme update in next few days – anyhow, as soon as we get some feedback and additional info, we will let you know (most likely by the end of the day tomorrow).

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

Thank you. I wanted to also notify you of a possible jQuery deprecation error in `bold-news/framework/js/misc.js:180`.

`$( window ).load(function() {` should be updated to `$( window ).on(‘load’, function() {` See https://stackoverflow.com/a/37915907

Hi,

Please note that the theme update has been released with both changes.

Kind regards,

On how many domains can we install this theme?

I have purchased a lot of themes, more than 90% of them run on multiple domains with regular license.

Hi,

If you have used the themes from ThemeForest that way, you have not been using your licenses in line with the license agreement.

Please note that we are not the ones who set the rules on the ThemeForest market. For all additional info, please contact Envato directly – https://help.market.envato.com/hc/en-us

Thanks for understanding.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

Hi, can this theme be used without Wordpress, as a HTML site template?

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us.

No, unfortunately Bold News is available only in form of WordPress theme :(

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

That’s disappointing. But thanks for the reply!

​Hello.

Sorry for bothering you but I have problems with installing demo data in my theme I have bought from you. The error is:

JSON.parse: unexpected end of data at line 1 column 1 of the JSON data

Any ideas what can I do to get the demo I want. The desired demo I want is:

https://bold-news.bold-themes.com/main-demo/home/bold-news-v3/

​Would be great to help me our with this. Can not start to work on the website that way. If you need any access, please let me know.

All the best,

Hello.

Many thanks for your answer.

Non of the following display as an message. Do you think changing hosting could give better result. Just need to import the demo and start using your theme as it is, with all the demo data.

Any suggestions will be more than welcome here. :) Thanks in advance.

All the best,

Hi,

Without resolving the issue, it is impossible to import the demo, so the best option is to check with the hosting where you can catch the exception you are getting.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

Hello,

I wrote to my host, hope it’s this. Will try to another one and let you know. Many thanks to your. :)

Hi, I noticed that by updating the version of WordPress to the latest version 3.6.1 the theme causes out of memory problems and everything breaks, in fact then trying to add the basic WordPress theme works but not with Bold News.

Hi,

It seems that you are running an outdated version of the theme.

Please update the theme to the latest version – 1.5.4 https://documentation.bold-themes.com/changelog/bold-news-changelog.txt

Please make sure to update the Bold News plugin and Bold builder plugin as well once you update the theme.

You can update the theme as described in the following article: https://boldthemes.ticksy.com/article/7123/

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

thank you very much, I don’t know why wordpress no longer presented me with theme updates. Alright!

Hi,

In general notifications for updates for themes from ThemeForest are not visible by default in the wp-admin interface. If you wish to see them the same way as for the themes and plugins from WordPress.org you need to use https://www.envato.com/lp/market-plugin/

Kind regards,

HI Team,

We are facing issue with header element section. We page loads a large white element stay for 4 5 sec or more. Attaching the Screenshot

https://ibb.co/RNVp9g0

Unfortunately, we have no other ideas nor a fix :(

I tried checking disabling all plugings, I think its bold Builder which causing dealy in loading the footer.

Hi,

Unfortunately, we do not have a solution for your issue :(

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

Hi Team,

On every post category Archive is coming after the name of the category. I would like to remove that. Please check the image. https://ibb.co/5TCb0d2

Thanks for the guidance, but its an imp for SEO practices. Do you think it can be implemented in upcoming updates?

Hi,

TBH it is not one of our priorities for two following reasons:

The common situation is that the post belongs to two categories. If that is the case, as it often is, then there is no way to display hierarchical “path” as you expect it, for both (or more than two) categories with parents. The only solution to this situation is to display the categories to which the post actually belongs to (the leaf categories) as it is now.

So far, none of the users requested change of this behavior – you are the first one :)

So currently our conclusion is that the current functionality meets the needs of most of the theme users. Naturally, we will monitor the situation and if this changes we will act accordingly. Keep in mind that this change would affect all existing sites if implemented “instead” of the current functionality.

Thanks for understanding.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team

Thanks.

Hi there,

What’s the latest version of the theme? How can I check If I have installed the latest version?

Thanks!

Hi,

Please find the changelog here: https://documentation.bold-themes.com/changelog/bold-news-changelog.txt

You can always find the link to it at the bottom of the theme profile page: https://themeforest.net/item/bold-news-magazine-news-wordpress-theme/19670189

The good option is to install the Envato Market plugin as well – https://www.envato.com/lp/market-plugin/ with it you can receive updates of the theme.

Other theme update options are described here: https://boldthemes.ticksy.com/article/7123/

Kind regards,

No, Bold New magazine does not offer to display archive pages as a POST grid.

Hi i want reduce number of related articles from 9 et 5

Hi, you can try to add this to your functions.php file:
add_filter( 'bt_related_posts_array', 'bt_limit_related_articles' );
function bt_limit_related_articles( $arr ) {
return array_slice( $arr, 0, 5 );
}

Hi I have Bold theme working since 2018, and you guys have made a great theme. During my last plugin update when it finished, the UI Editor has deactivated, although the eye icon is present on frontend when I am logged in as administrator, the ui editor cannot switched and activate the blocks. do you have any clue what is going on

Hi,

Have you tried deleting the browser cache – you might be loading the old, locally cached version of the Bold Builder JS.

If this does not resolve the issue, please send us the site url and the wp-admin credentials using the contact form at the bottom of the sidebar on our profile page: https://themeforest.net/user/boldthemes and we will take a closer look at it.

Kind regards,

BoldThemes team
