i feel like this might be a stupid question but before we purchase I just wanted to make sure that one of the solid white bars can be edited in either code or file and be given a different color. Also is there an option to add a scroll back to top button? we love everything about this theme PERFECT! except for the all the scrolling.
thanks so much!
it is truly beautiful!

Hi Kyla!
To be honest, I´m not sure about the ‘white bars edition’ question. Which part are you referring to?
About the scroll to top feature, you have available an option within the panel to enable this helper. We tried to make the option panel as easy to use as possible, so playing with the options will be very easy 
Thank you very much about your interest in Flamingo!
perfect! thank you! ....
the white slanted bar that houses them majority of text.
I realize we can either put a background image or make that an individual color but i was wondering about the white. Which I’m assuming you can. 
Hi,
Firstly, I have to say fantastic work! This is one of the best themes I have ever worked with, and I have worked with many.
On the Contact page, when I type in an address for the background map and click “find the complete address”, nothing happens. Am I doing something wrong?
Anita
Hi Anita,
please, make sure you have installed the Location Field required plugin. In case you did it, open a support ticket and we will take a look closer to this issue. Just provide an admin user and password and we will review this location issue.
Glad to hear that! 
The plugin is installed – I’ve submitted a ticket. Thank you!
Hi
A silly question!
Playing around with the theme to see what looks good just after installation, I changed the fonts. However I now want to change them back to the default ones but there is no option to do this and I cannot remember the font names! Could you remind me please!?
Thanks
Richard
No problem, Richard!
By default the primary font is ‘Raleway’. The secondary is ‘Old Standard TT’ And the body typeface is ‘Muli’
Cheers!
Wow that was quick!
Many thanks!
Buenos dias!
Una preguntilla pre-purchase Podria usarse la pag de “Portfolio” a modo de “Home” e incluirse algo mas de Info como el contacto, justo debajo del portfolio? (para dar la impresion de single-page design) Gracias!
Hola, buenos días!
Pues podrías poner la página de portfolio a modo de home, pero el theme no ofrece herramientas para crear un estilo “one-page”, lo siento. Me refiero al típico comportamiento al hacer click en una opción del menú y anclarlo con el scroll a la sección de referencia.
No estoy seguro de si Flamingo se ajustaría a tus necesidades, la verdad. Pero en cualquier caso, si tienes alguna otra duda, házmelo saber y trataré de explicarte con más detalle.
En cualquier caso, muchas gracias por tu interés en Flamingo! 
Hi there, First of all we would like to congratulate you. Amazing theme. We are however facing some font issues with the theme. Unfortunatelly the fonts that we need are not available in the theme, but I can’t seem to be able to use any other fonts. I tried editing the CSS both page specific and the style sheet, but nothing seems to work. I also tried to use the google fonts plugin, again with no success. So is it possible to import more fonts into the theme?
Hi Whale,
I´m not sure how would you like to add different fonts, I mean. Do you want to add new fonts from Google Font directory or add your own based on font-face?
Both cases are possible and easy to implement. In case of google fonts, the theme offers more than 200 options, and adding new fonts to the panel will take you less than a minute 
In case you need help with it, I recommend you opening a support ticket and we will help with it.
Cheers!
Thanks for the fast reply. I actually want to add more google fonts to the theme, as our headings font is Roboto, but its not available in the current directory. I will make a ticket as I also have a few more important questions.
Hi there, great theme, I have a couple questions:
- Is it possible to customize the text on the header/slider: can you move the position of the text, change fonts/colors, or remove the text completely?
- Is it possible to move the menu button to the left side of the header area?
Thanks!
Hi kal,
these are not options implemented within the option panel, but this kind of modifications a pretty easy to achieve with css.
Cheers!
Thanks for the quick reply! Just a couple more pre-sales questions:
- Can you update the theme directly through the admin panel (eg. for client, without going through ThemeForest download)?
- Is it possible to use a video for the homepage header/slider? (or is it just for blog posts)
- With your .move-top-50 etc. class, is it hard to implement move-left/right? Is it possible to have part of an image under the text on the left side (on homepage left column of text)?
- Can you change the main content (white background) color/texture/use an image? With the included PSD’s, can you edit the main content background?
Thanks so much for your help!
Hi Kal,
the theme includes the Envato Wordpress Toolkit plugin that allows you to update the theme within your Wordpress dashboard, you can take a look here to this feature.
About adding video within the slider (I understand you refer to this), this is not possible. The main slider only allows images. But you can add videos from Vimeo and Youtube as background in a very easy way using the option for this.
The helper classes for moving content blocks to top or bottom could be complemented with left/right in a very easy way. Currently they are not available, but you could add it as custom styles and then add these new classes in the same way. The process would be the same.
About the content background color, you could change it in a very easy way. Only the image would be more problematic because this element could be very hight and your images could not fit well.
Hope it will be helpful!
Have a nice time with family and friends the next coming days! 
Hi – Before purchasing. Does the site play nice with Vimeo?
Hi!
you can add any of these supported formats using the video player widget you will find within the page builder. It is super easy to work with.
Thanks about your interest in Flamingo.
Cheers!
Hi,
Great looking theme though i plan on using it slightly differently which i want to confirm is possible first:
1) I was the slider section to be a still image, will this remove the arrows?
2) Is it possible to have one background image and use the slider just to change the title and subheading? Not necessary though that would be perfect.
4) is the social icons done through fonts awesome? I just want a dribbble icon, is this possible through theme settings or will i have to change it in the footer.php?
Thanks in advance!
Andrew
Hi elite,
yes, you can assign a slider or a single image instead. This will disable any slider behavior, the arrows too. By default, any page has not assigned a slider.
About make the titles as slides is not a native slider option. And when it is enabled, any default background is removed, becuause if this would be possible you could assign a default background static image and then assign transparent images to the slides. This would be the trick, but this is not possible without editing the core javascript for this.
And yes, the icons are font awesome based, and adding a dribbble icon would be so easy as you can see here.
Hope it will helpful for you and thank you very much about your interest in Flamingo.
Hi everyone, I am very new in WP. It my first time use WP to build a site. It will be very appreciated if anyone could tell me how to fix these following problem.
1, In the new page I add the element “project grid” . But how can I have the categories filter? (Isotope?) http://marsjob.gotoip3.com/2, Is there any way I could change the footer social network icon and link? and the social option in the menu?
3, In my photography project, I Enable Project Fullscreen Gallery. However the fullscreen button is too small, and was hidden unless mouseover “show” button. Is possible I could put a button in the content? http://marsjob.gotoip3.com/project/photography/ 4, In my film project, I add a video player. How can I edit the size and the position of the video player? http://marsjob.gotoip3.com/project/a-singing-crown/Thank you very much ~ enjoy Flamingo~~
T. Song
And I found a link here: http://marsjob.gotoip3.com/project/ But how can I edit this page?
Hi Song,
after reading your queries I think that the best way we can help here it is recommending you to check out the documentation. There you have step by steps about creating portfolios, portfolio items or any other part with the theme. After this, if you could have any other doubt, just let us know, ok?
In that case, I recommend you to open a support ticket in order to follow better your doubts and queries, ok?
Thanks for using Flamingo, we hope you will enjoy with it!
Hi,
I have set the Portfolio URL Slug to ‘item’ and I’ve posted two portfolio items. I am using the portfolio functions and pages as a blog. Though the items are published, I am referred to the 404 page.
i.e. http://www.passthedonut.com/item/event-red-bull-bc-one-10th-anniversary/
http://www.passthedonut.com/item/video-art-shay-the-sporting-life-and-times/Any idea why? Thank you!
Never mind, it had to resolve probably as it works fine now. Thanks though!
OK! Let us know if you could have any doubt, ok? 
Hola, antes que nada, felicitarlos, realmente una plantilla formidable!
Un par de dudas a resolver.
1. Cómo asigno una imagen destacada a la sección Blog? no aparece la opción “Background Type” al seleccionar la plantilla Blog.
2. Donde puedo tocar el código para cambiar el color de texto descriptivo del portfolio, de la imagen destacada, actualmente es blanco.
SALUDOS.
4. No es una duda, es agradecer su excelente trabajo!
Hola amigx,
en respuesta a tu primera consulta, te recomendaría que eches un vistazo a esta parte de la documentación. Ahí verás un “important notice” donde se explica con detalle cómo funciona esta opción.
En cuanto al tema del color para la descripción del área de portfolio. Esta funciona igual que en el resto de páginas. Abre la página que tienes asignada como portfolio y busca este campo y allí podrás asignar el color que prefieras de una manera muy sencilla.
Muchas gracias por usar Flamingo, esperamos que te resulte útil y sencillo de usar!
Un saludo!
Okay so I got 3 quick questions -
1. My theme have this popup coming up both when logged in as admin and when I look at my page in general – the error is
“Warning: set_time_limit() [function.set-time-limit]: Cannot set time limit in safe mode in /var/www/foxyfellows.com/public_html/wp-content/plugins/envato-wordpress-toolkit-master/index.php on line 872” How do I fix this ?
2. I see that there is a new version out – but how do I update? I don’t wanna lose the changes I made to the theme with just making a complete new install from the theme section?
3. After updating to Wordpress 3.8 It says that the plugin coming with the theme “WPBakery Visual Composer” has a new updated version – when you click to update it It brings you to CodeCanyon – asking you to pay 25$ to update??
Hi Andreas,
I your case, if you are not using the Envato Toolkit plugin, I recommend you not to install it in order to avoid this issue.
In case you want to use it, you will need to contact to your hosting provider in order to turn off the safe mode for php. This is a server issue.
About the Visual Composer upgrade, just update the theme and the plugin will be updated too. You don´t need to purchase nothing else with Flamingo, all the assets are included.
If you want to update the theme, the easiest way is via FTP, creating a new folder within themes folder named somthing like flamingo-v1-32 and copying all the theme files insider, after this, open your WP dashboard > Themes and activate the new copy you have installed. If something is wrong, you always can reactivate the old one. Notice that if you made modifications in some core file, you will need to support these changes.
Hope it will help!
tested with WP 3.8?
Tested and running without detected issues. Some other users are running 3.8 too and it works correctly.
Flamingo is built over the Wordpress native UI and this guarantee this compatibility for future core updates 
Hi really Great is it possible Multiple Portfolio? e.g. one Page one category with subcategories and another Page include second category with subcategories Thanks
Hi Naci,
you can enable more than a one portfolio as you suggest, but you will need to disable the option/button to back to main portfolio in order to maintain some logics integrity of the theme due to some technical issues.
Thanks about your interest in Flamingo!
Hi, Sorry it’s me again, I’ve tried to add Youtube/Vimeo link to build my background of portfolio and inside of a portfolio post, but none of them were succeeded. Have tried a lot of times. there are some TV noise in the background when I use youtube link and it’s a blank when I insert the Vimeo. Please help me, thank you!
Hi!
please, make sure you are including the correct ID (only the ID not the whole V/TB URL).
After checking this, if you are still in problems adding your videos to your site, open a support ticket and we will take a look closer to it.
Cheers!
It works! thank you so much! this is such an amazing theme!
Hello there,
Can I use the Blog template without a “BLOG” title on it? For example I’d like to change it into “Dairy”, is that possible?
Thanks! Yu
Hi Yutopia,
you can change the “Blog” tag just naming “Dairy” your blog page when you create it.
Cheers!
thank you!
Hi Van,
I am having a problem getting the sidebar content to appear for the blog overview page. No matter what I select, it doesn’t appear. It does work for the single blog pages though. Any deep thoughts? 
Also, I cannot change the color for the header titles and button for the blog page. It’s standard white. Hope you can help out?
Edit: Ahhh that is set standard in the general settings. Solved for now, but a standard option for header texts and color per page would be very handy.
Thanks! Tom
Hi Tom,
blog area options must to be configured from general options, as you can see in this part of the documentation.
Hope it will help!
Yep, found it, thanks 
hello! can you add a variation of Gallery Style. I need a slider with fullscreen button. I like the way how galleria js integrated into the theme.
You make me happy if you give me an option to put slider in div block-content. full width + button to switch to full screen.
Hi soul,
I´m sorry to say that this kind of gallery is not available but you could add a image or link in your page that will fire the fullscreen gallery as the main option does. But the gallery inside a div within the block content is not an available option.
If you would like to know how to add this “firer”, let me know.
Cheers!
yes – of course please. how to do that?
OK, open a support ticket and I will guide you to achieve something similar to this approach. Hope it will help! 
Hi,
First of all I want to compliment the team with this beautiful theme! It was love at first sight!
I was wondering were If there could be a option to change the logo colour for each page. Because if I have a dark background header image I want a light version of my logo and when there is a light background I want a dark version of my logo. Maybe something you can overlook with uploading the next update? Keep up the good work, really happy with my purchase so far. Thanks!
Gr, Ruben
Hi Ruben,
due to the different needs of each of you, as Flamingo´s users, we can´t add this kind of options to cover these particular needs. I´m sorry. Just in case we find this option really needed, we can study to implement some alternative to cover this. In that case, we will let you know! 
Thanks!
When I select the angle page view there is an extra transparent bar at the bottom of the page how. Any answers on how I get rid of this ? website is creatingar.com
Hi!
I recommend you to update the theme. This issue was caused due to past update and it was fixed quickly in a new update. So if you upgrade to the last version you will fix this issue.
Also, I have noticed that your menu is displaying weird, are you activating the menu correctly from the menu area within the Wordpress dashboard?
Let me know about this last issue, ok? In case you have activate your menu correctly, open a support ticket and provide us with an admin user/pass and we will take look from inside your configuration
