I’ll definitely take both ideas into consideration, thanks!

The toggle for the menu is something I’ve considered doing, but most people (from my experience) have A LOT smaller menus then I do in my demo. Nonetheless, a toggle would look nice, so I’ll mess around with that.

Thanks for the suggestions.

Brilliant, I look forward to seeing the result if you manage to do it!

Really frusturating, whenever I create page the border adds to the style. When checking HTML code, it says following:

As you can see I didnt selected any of the styling, the colors are cleared out. But in the setting it says “border style: Solid” I cannot change that to “None”. Thats why It adds

Ok, I think I figure out. If I add column and then add a row in that, or opposite, not sure, then it add the border. otherwise its fine now

Even when I do what you said and add the column and then the row its fine for me…The border might be coming from elsewhere, but hard to know where without looking at the URL.

Either way I’ll probably add a border “none” in the next update just as a second precaution

I don’t know why, but the problem has solved by itself. I will ask you again, if it comes back. ; )

Thank you

But I have another question: Where can I find the settings for oembed videos. So that I can hide the vimeo-title and authors image in the inserted vimeo canvas. Is there a possibility? Or do I have to go into the main wordpress-code.

There aren’t any “settings for oembed”. The only available arguments for the wordpress oembed function (unfortunately) are height and width: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_oembed_get

If you want to remove vimeo titles you’ll need to create a function that filters the embed_handler_html and the embed_oembed_html hooks. Looks like you can find some answers online with a Google search…

But the easiest is if you have a Vimeo Plus account you actually can set to hide these things from your video’s settings.

There isn’t any built-in styles for BuddyPress because it adds a lot of bloat and not a whole lot of people use it.

It is a plugin though, so it should work out of the box. The only thing you’ll really need to do is probably add some CSS to make it look good.

OK thanks. Do you have an alternative to buddypress that you’d recommend for use with this theme?

I’m not sure there is anything decent out there for creating a social type website for WordPress with members besides BuddyPress.

You have to be working with the Visual Composer, simply click on the little “pencil” icon and you can customize these: http://cl.ly/image/380w3c3b1E0B

Thanks for sharing the URL. I didn’t realize you were using header style 2 which has a background added to the header.

So add the rounded edge to the header as well:

.header-two,
.boxed-main-layout #wrap { border-radius: 4px 4px 0 0; }

ok i put that in the custom css section but I am still not having any success. Do I need to change a setting somewhere else? Thanks again for all your help.

I don’t see the CSS applied to the header-two class on your live site.

ps: You also have a white main background and a white content background, so it’s going to be tricky to see once its added correctly.

This is what it would look like:

You might want to consider adding a border to the main content wrap or making the main background darker for a higher contrast.

No there isn’t a way. I don’t allow that for security reasons.

The full-sample data from the demo is included though with your purchase. You can always install the sample data locally and check it all out

There isn’t a standard, it really depends on what you are trying to accomplish. Generally a background image in a header is for design only, you wouldn’t add an image in there that that has text or an image that must be displayed always perfectly.

There is an option though for the height of the header when adding a background image, so be sure to edit that to fit your needs.

If you show me an example of what you are trying to accomplish or the URL in question maybe I can give you some tips.

I tried adding some CSS to make this image resize when it’s opened on a mobile device, but it either leaves me with a big gap between the image and the page content beneath it, or the image resizes inappropriately (see: http://funtimes.lernia-ts.co/hideandseek/about-us/).

I appreciate your help.

I see you added the following css to your site:

.page-header-title { opacity: 0; }

To “hide” the title. Instead of doing this, why don’t you just tweak the css to move the title to where you want it positioned over the image?

The other alternative, if you don’t have a lot of pages you are adding the background at the top for, you can create a layerslider for each. This way you can also animate the title if you wish

There is no need. This theme runs on a page builder, so you would use that to insert different modules: http://cl.ly/image/0x2F2L2R0V0H

Please refer to the included documentation which explains how to use the Visual Composer drag/drop builder.

It’s going to depend on demand. So far you are the only one that has requested it so far. I’m going to hold off a bit until I get a bit more demand

Thank you for your interest!

That’s pretty complicated stuff. You’ll need to use a 3rd party plugin for this (unless you want to manually create menu locations and edit the function at functions/header-menu.php). I’m not sure of any plugin, but maybe this would work (just found it doing a quick search)?

Thx, damn I’ve searched for that plugin in weeks!! Works Great Now!

I’ve got reason, when it displays the default overlay when a user hovers over the featured image – link on iPad doesn’t work.

I’m not sure (because I don’t know what app is causing this). Can you try targeting the link with CSS?

/*make all links white in the top bar content area*/
#top-bar-content a { color: #fff !important; }

That took care of it. Thanks again!!

Great!

Waiting for your reply. Would like to purchase the Total theme tomorrow to get started on my project.

I have not heard from you in more than 14 days despite several reminders. Perhaps it is time to look for other options. I am really disappointed as I was looking forward to working with the Total theme.

Hi Matt,

You can have portrait and landscape images. All you need to do is set the height value for your image cropping to “9999” that way your images won’t be cropped vertically and they will keep their proportions:

Awesome, thanks for the purchase Brad!

Oh by the way…don’t forget it can take Google a while to update ownership. So even if it’s setup correctly on the site you’ll need to give it time before your avatar displays on search results.

The Fanciest Author Box could be a good idea. I know that Google might take some time, but the test tool says that it’s not working properly, so I doubt if time might change it.

You can also try email verification for Google ownership. Might be the easiest for site-wide ownership – https://support.google.com/webmasters/answer/1408986?hl=en

Hi Michael,

This page looks like it has a sidebar, so there is extra space on the right where the sidebar would go.

You’ll want to select the Full-Width page layout in the page options if you want to remove the sidebar.

ps: There is a “spacing” module available in the Visual Composer you can use to add some space above your columns to separate from the menu.

pss: If you are just adding images, you might want to check out the Image Slider module in the Visual Composer instead of the layerSlider you might find it a lot easier to edit and definitely “cleaner”.

The site is looking really unique, awesome!

1) Thanks for the help! You were right, there was an invisible sidebar causing the issue.

2) I am now using the spacer module – thanks for the suggestion.

3) The Image Flex Slider works much better for my purposes – thanks for that suggestion, also.

4) Thanks for the compliment on the website.

I have used maybe 100 themes over the years of building websites. Total is newly discovered on my part and my favorite theme of all time. It has an option for nearly every customization and is completely flexible such that this one theme can be used to create thousands of unique looking websites. Excellent work!

All the best, Michael

I’m glad things are working out and you like the theme Michael!

Hope you had a nice weekend

For this circumstance it shouldn’t be a problem

Of course if you want to buy it 2x I won’t stop ya!

This is to target all headings if for example a specific font you choose doesn’t have semi-bold (headings are 600 by default) so you can alter all of them.

There aren’t any individual settings because headings are used in so many areas it would literally add like 40+ options and really bloat the theme panel.

If there is a specific heading you want to modify I can help you with the custom CSS for that. If you are having trouble.
