Can you create educational theme for Schools (high school or college, university). As there are lot of kindergarten theme, but very less on school or colleges

Hello, is it possible to link services to portfolio/project.. eg. i have service called chemical.. can I link several portfolio/project items to service chemical..so when I go to chemical service I can see and link to related portfolio/project items

Hello @spa2000

Thank you for your question.

By default, the theme does not include a built-in option to directly link Services with Portfolio/Project items in the way you described (i.e., automatically displaying related projects under a specific service).

However, you can achieve a similar result using one of the following approaches:

Using Categories/Taxonomies Manual Linking

On your Service page, you can manually add links or a section showcasing related portfolio/projects (for example, using a grid, carousel, or links to specific project pages).

Custom Development (Outside Support Scope)

If you need an automated relationship between Services and Portfolio items (e.g., dynamic listing based on selection), this would require custom development or a third-party plugin. Please note that such customization is outside the standard support scope.

Hello, can you please reset my license code? I really appreciate any help you can provide.

The latest Kirki Customizer Framework (version 5.2.3) Update from a few days ago has created a conflict with the theme customizer have you heard of any problems with it? I installed an earlier version of Kirki and the issue resolved.

Hello! I wanted to follow up here because I haven’t received a response to my previous messages sent through the support system, direct email and the listed support contact. As a result, I’ve posted my question here on the theme page in hopes of connecting with your team. I completely understand that things can get busy, and I want to say that I’ve always appreciated the excellent support you’ve provided in the past.

It looks like this may be a wider Kirki issue, since I’ve noticed other users from various forums reporting the same message: “Install Kirki Customizer – You need to install Kirki plugin to use full theme options.” Because I use this theme for over 100 sites, a resolution through Kirki would be ideal.

Thank you for your attention to this when you have a chance!

Hello @rodeospot,

Thank you very much for reaching out and for your kind words—we truly appreciate your continued trust in our theme across so many sites. We sincerely apologize for the delay in our response.

We have checked this issue on our test environment and were able to reproduce the same behavior. It appears that the Kirki plugin is already installed, however, the notice is still being displayed in the Customizer.

Our development team has been informed and is currently investigating the issue. We will share an update as soon as we have more information or a fix available. Thank you again for your patience and understanding.

Regards Andon-Design.

Hello, you are most welcome! The update they did again for Kirki, caused wide spread site issues, menus disappearing on all the sites, some of the sites went down completely, others missing the content, with only the header, title showing. I have rolled back or disabled Kirki, my other sites not using this theme are fine, but my 80+ sites with your amazing theme, went down. Any news on where things stand? I can’t have this with soo many client sites relying on the theme. It is a truly awesome theme, soo many wonderful features. The update challenges, are quite stressful, especially when having to travel the morning the updates hit.

As a whole, this is still and will always be my favorite theme, the best features, the best support! Just the little issues here and there. As soon as I disable Kirki the sites come back. Thank you as always!

Hello, I would like to open a request through the support site, but I keep receiving an error saying that my account has not been activated. Could you please get back to me as soon as possible? This issue is related to the theme.

Hello, @literal_yazilim ,

I have verified your account email and also sent the password reset email to your primary email: info+7@literalyazilim.com please check it and follow it, reset the password and try to Login again, let me know the result.

Regards Andon-Design.

Hi, I tried to download the updated theme file but keep getting this error message:

Unpacking the package… Installing the theme… The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet. Theme installation failed.

Hello @karnawie,

Thank you for reaching out to us. I’m sorry to hear you’re running into an error while trying to update your theme, but don’t worry—this is a very common occurrence and is easily fixed.

This error usually occurs because the file downloaded from ThemeForest is the “All files & documentation” package. This “Full” package contains the theme itself along with licensing, documentation, and other folders. WordPress, however, is looking specifically for the theme folder inside that zip file.

To resolve this, please follow these simple steps:

Unzip the file you downloaded from ThemeForest onto your computer. Open the unzipped folder and look for the file named udesign.zip. This is the actual theme file. Go back to your WordPress Dashboard and navigate to Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme. Upload only that specific udesign.zip file.

Pro Tip: If you prefer not to unzip anything, you can go to your ThemeForest Downloads page, click the Download button next to UDesign, and select “Installable WordPress file only.” This will give you the correct file to upload directly without any extra steps.

Please let me know if you have any other questions or if you need further assistance!

Regards Andon-Design.

Hmm, hello, I’m in the process of making a small change to your project and am currently uploading a few templates. Here’s what’s happening.

https://prnt.sc/KDrymMlfatbD He’s loading these images 100 times over. Can you please change that?

Hello @Mufasa-Snowflake

We have replied to your ticket. Please check back on your site for our response. Let us know if you need any further assistance.

Regards Andon-Design.

Since you can’t help me with that one task, I have another request or question: Is it possible to improve the Saber menu and the Mega menu so that they’re not square, so that the edges are rounded? That would look better.

Hello @Mufasa-Snowflake

I shared your login details with my developer so he could check the issue, but the credentials are not working. I also noticed that the theme on your website appears to have been changed.

Do you still need help with this? If so, please provide the working login credentials on your ticket and collaborate with us there.

Regards Andon-Design.

Hello, sorry but your support system doesnt work.

I’m tryng to open a ticket, but the system tell me a lot of times that i have to verify my email address, but i have do this action 10 times and is always the same!!!

I have a big problem (and please fix your support board, it brings me on “Porto” Theme):

How i can insert customized texts in each service? Now i can only edit the template, but the text will be the same for ALL SERVICE!

See this screenshot: https://prnt.sc/eE7D4bsA4qnd

I need to create a template for each service, otherwise I can’t edit this section because it’s part of the general template.

Please let me know, thanks!

Hello @maloneweb,

The Single Services page layout is created using a custom template.

To edit it, go to Dashboard → UDESIGN → All Templates, then locate and edit the Single Service template/block. Inside this template, you need to add the UDESIGN Single Service widgets. These widgets will display the dynamic content that you add while editing each individual service.

For a better understanding of how to set up the custom single service layout, please refer to this documentation: https://d-themes.com/wordpress/udesign/documentation/2021/10/29/single-builder/

As mentioned earlier, you need to edit the Single Service block and add the UDESIGN Single Service widgets so the content added to each service appears dynamically on the single service page.

You can see the widgets I am referring to here: https://postimg.cc/bG76Cvnb

Hello,

Will you be adding the latest version of the Essential Grid plugin?

Hello @esertan

The “Essential Grid” plugin was previously fully integrated with the “UDesign” theme. However, it has been removed from the theme’s Recommended Plugins list due to compatibility issues.

You can review the update history and details in the changelog here: https://themeforest.net/item/udesign-responsive-wordpress-theme/253220#item-description__updates-history

Regards Andon-Design.

Thank you

Hello @esertan

You’re welcome!

If there’s anything else you need, feel free to ask anytime.

Portfolio Portfolio Link Text etc… not saving on classic editor

I’m trying to save the protfolio metaboxes on classic editor not Gutenberg and it’s not saved

The problem on saving the post the $post_type is empty and after checking the code

u-design-core\framework\plugins\meta-box\class-alpha-admin-meta-boxes.php
lines 80-88

I can’t find any way to check the $post_type on post

and to solve it you need to change the code from

if ( 'post-new.php' == $GLOBALS['pagenow'] ) {
    $post_type = empty( $_GET['post_type'] ) ? 'post' : $_GET['post_type'];
} elseif ( 'post.php' == $GLOBALS['pagenow'] ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['action'] ) && ! empty( $_GET['post'] ) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type( (int) $_GET['post'] );
    }
} else {
    return $meta_boxes;
}

to

if ( 'post-new.php' == $GLOBALS['pagenow'] ) {
    $post_type = empty( $_GET['post_type'] ) ? 'post' : $_GET['post_type'];
} elseif ( 'post.php' == $GLOBALS['pagenow'] ) {
    if ( isset( $_GET['action'] ) && ! empty( $_GET['post'] ) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type( (int) $_GET['post'] );
    } elseif ( isset( $_POST['post_type'] ) ) {
        $post_type = sanitize_key( $_POST['post_type'] );
    } elseif ( isset( $_POST['post_ID'] ) ) {
        $post_type = get_post_type( (int) $_POST['post_ID'] );
    }
} else {
    return $meta_boxes;
}

Hello @maloneweb

Thank you for sharing the suggestion and the code modification.

Could you please confirm if the issue with saving the Portfolio metabox fields in the Classic Editor has been resolved after applying this change on your end?

Regards Andon-Design.

Few pre sale queries. We are excited:

1. Sidebar Pages (left to right): For example I like this sidebar page design at https://d-themes.com/wordpress/udesign/clean-home/services/product-cleaning which I might want to use for my “Single Service Pages”. But if you see the sidebar is “Left Hand Sided” can I make this exact page “Right Hand Sided” without any coding.

2. Custom Post Types Builder: I see that we can do “Template Building” so can we create new Custom Post Type Modules?

3. Elementor Widgets Templates: Suppose we use one of your elementor widgets from https://d-themes.com/wordpress/udesign/elements/, do we then have to build it from scratch? or we also get some layout pre defined so that we just need to update the text content and ready to go. Note: Not talking about Udesign Studio but the Elementor Widget Elements. Do we have to build it from scratch or we get some layouts out of the box?

4. Essential Grid Paid Plugin: A- I know we are also getting the “Essential Grid” plugin. But the settings are too deep if we have to start from scratch. Is it a free version or a premium version? B- Also I can see some top class templates already created in the essential grid website at https://www.essential-grid.com/grids. So can we use one of these templates? In other words, do we have access to their Templates? Or we have to build it from scratch?

5. Header & Footer Builder: Can we use “Elementor Widgets” to build the header and footer of Udesign?

6. Is Elementor Pro needed? Lastly do we need the Elementor Pro license to run the Udesign theme extensively?

Hello @ethicaLeadTeam

1) Creative Grid Element

Yes, with the Creative Grid Element in U-Design, you can create a completely new section from scratch and place your own custom content within each grid item. It gives you full flexibility to build advanced grid-based layouts exactly how you want.

And you are correct — the free version of Elementor does not include this type of creative grid layout by default. This enhanced grid functionality comes from U-Design’s extended widget system, so you get more advanced layout options without needing Elementor Pro.

2) Speed Optimize Wizard

Yes — U-Design includes a dedicated Speed Optimization module (Optimize Wizard) that helps improve performance. You can learn more about how it works here: https://d-themes.com/wordpress/udesign/documentation/category/optimize-wizard/

However, this module is not a full caching plugin by itself. In fact, many users combine the theme’s built-in optimization features with a caching plugin for maximum performance.

For reference, here is the list of officially compatible plugins: https://d-themes.com/wordpress/udesign/documentation/category/compatible-plugins/

So you can activate and configure whichever tools work best for your site.

Thank you so very much. Purchasing.

Hello, is it possible to import more than one prebuilt demo on the same website, or if only one demo can be used per installation?

I’d like to provide multiple layout options to my client, so I want to make sure I’m following the correct approach.

Hello villovahost,

Thanks for reaching out

No, it’s not possible to import multiple prebuilt demos into the same installation at the same time — only one demo can be imported per installation.

If you want to show multiple layout options to your client, you can set up separate test installations (for example, on subdomains or local environments) and import a different demo on each one. You can check the available online demos here for reference: https://d-themes.com/wordpress/wolmart/landing/#section-demos

Hello, I have a question before purchasing. Is there a header burger menu? Can we place it on the right or left? Can we create a custom header design?

Hello zuzu02,

Thank you very much for considering our theme — we truly appreciate it!

Yes, the theme includes a burger (hamburger) menu option for mobile devices. You can position it on either the left or right side of the header in mobile view, depending on your preference.

Additionally, the header is built using the Elementor plugin, which gives you full flexibility to customize and design it exactly the way you need. With Elementor, you can create a completely custom header layout — adjust positioning, styling, spacing, add elements, and tailor everything to match your brand.

Regards Andon-Design.

Thank you. Is it possible to use the burger menu not only on mobile but also on desktop view?

Hello @zuzu02,

Yes, you can use this as well. Refer to the image: https://ibb.co/sdYs7W8S

Regards Andon-Design.

This is my web: https://www.vila-kine.cat/botiga/

The product photos aren’t showing up. If I switch the view to LIST and then back to GRID, they appear. I don’t have any caching plugins.

What could be the problem?

How to update the theme: Should I update the theme first then the plugins or the plugins first then the theme from WordPress Updates page?

What is an email to write to that will reply? The support system is not working right, it has my email under my account different than what was used to setup the latest account, then it tells me to verify the email and nothing happens, I get logged back into the the support with no options to verify my email.

Hello, I purchased uDesign for my website which was closed/expired a couple years ago. I’d like to use my license on my new site. When I entered the product code I received an error message – :”already_used Please check purchase code again:” Please help. Thank you.

Hello, @IAmZelda,

I have reset your purchase code, please try to re-register the theme again with the same purchase code on your desired domain and let me know the result.

Regards Andon-Design.

Thank you, Andon. I appreciate it. I was feeling creative last night so I went ahead and purchased another license. All good. It’s such a robust and versatile theme that I’m sure I’ll find a purpose for it. Take care.

Hello, @IAmZelda,

Thank you so much for the kind words and for your support — we truly appreciate it. We’re glad to hear everything is sorted now, and it’s great to know you’re enjoying the flexibility of uDesign.
