Hello! I’m working on someone’s site that has this theme installed. They’ve given me the download package and I read the documentation but I’m still having a blog issue :) I don’t see a “blog layout” under templates in Page Attributes. I didn’t see any short codes or other way to initiate a blog feed on the “Blog” page.

The demo widgets were imported but not the demo content since they’ve already added their own content. There are widgets in the blog sidebar but those aren’t appearing on the page (I assume because I have the wrong page template chosen?). Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

Nevermind, I figured it out ;)

Any plans to make a boxed version anytime soon? This theme is perfect for me but not with full width layout :(

I just read through all the comments and found a few links to chekc out but none are boxed. Would love to see this in action…

Hi,

Hopefully the live preview customizer will be available in the next weeks for all our themes, but for now I have created a screenshot: http://awesomescreenshot.com/0ec38u8x4d

You can set the the bg the solid bg (as on the screenshot, I know it looks ugly) or upload your own pattern image.

Perfect! Thank you so much. Have now purchased :)

Hello, Excellent Theme! I am really loving it.

I do have a quick question, is there a way to remove the “Back To Services” button on the Services Posts Page?

Thank you,

Sure it is possible!

I have a customer who wants to use a carousel in the header like an accordian style.

See http://metropolitandetail.com/

Is this style possible in your Carpress theme?

Thanks Simon

Hi,

There is no feature like that, but could be accomplished using any 3rd party plugin – some custom coding will be required though.

If you are not familiar with coding I can recommend Codeable for that: http://codeable.7eer.net/c/92141/132845/2670

Hello!

First of all, I absolutely love this theme. It’s so well configured, one of the better ThemeForest themes I’ve purchased. :)

Second: Is there any way to slow down the slider? I think it’s a bit fast for the amount of content I have on each slide.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thank you very much, I like to hear that!

You can set the amount of the time how long every slide is shown in the appearance > customize > front page & banners > Slider interval (in miliseconds, 1s = 1000ms)

I’ve set up a multilingual website using the WPML plugin, and everything works just fine, exept for 1 thing, the make an appointment link. I’ve created a new page and added a new contact form, but I don’t know how to make it visible.

http://www.vobrid.com/

please take a look and go to the Spanish section of the website. I would like to have a spanish version of “Make an appointment”. Is that possible? Thanks! Claudia

Hi,

Update of this ‘bug’ is on the way with the next update. Till then you can overwrite the header.php file with this one which has this fixed already: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/47486136/header.php

Thanks! It worked just fine!

How do I remove the “Highlighted Wednesday” on the Opening Time Jumbotron? I want “all days” to have the same style text.

The homepage Latest Galleries widget is very limiting in that it only allows you to show one or more of the latest galleries.

It would be much more flexible if it allowed you to individually pick one or more galleries to show.

In the theme how can I insert two separate gallery widgets, and have each widget show a different gallery?

Hi,

Thank you, good suggestion! Unfortunately we didn’t get lots of requirements like that, but please create this as an idea on our platform here: http://proteusthemes.ideascale.com/

If it gains enough attention we will improve the widget in the next updates.

Okay I have added the suggestion to IdeaScale

Perfect. We will start gathering all the feature requests there!

Good morning! it’s there a way to have the site in 2 languages? spanish and english? without using WPML? I’ll appreciate any help.

Hi,

Yes, it is. The easiest way is to install 2 separate WP installations, each for one language. Or use the WordPress network for that purpose.

You can manually translate like described here: https://proteusthemes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200391371-How-to-translate-the-theme-to-some-other-language-

During my slider issues i decided to disable it, but I can’t find an option to do so. Which makes me think what is the point of having front page widgets for without slider? Sure there must be a way

Hi,

Please open a ticket on http://support.proteusthemes.com/ and we will solve the issues you have with the slider.

The homepage Gallery widget doesn’t work with mosaic, square or circle gallery types.

With these gallery types the image thumbnails are all stretched vertically.

Hi,

Yes, unfortunately these three gallery types are not possible to be parsed and also gallery widget doesn’t work correctly when using them.

Hi!

Where I can found the appropiate dimensions for the photos.

In the documentation, which is in the zip you downloaded from the ThemeForest (documentation/index.html).

Otherwise you can also see the dimensions defined in the theme file functions.php, search for ‘add_image_size’ in that file.

Hi again !

If I create a new gallery or if I eliminate one gallery from main menu ¿How can insert that new gallery or put again the eliminated gallery in the main menu?

Thanks.

Hi! The link you paste doesn’t works ----------------—- https://s3.amazonaws.com/diigo/6319759_158074812_9666223?AWSAccessKeyId=0R7FMW7AXRVCYMAPTPR2&Expires=1405967367&Signature=T3V2b%2B50HIq7pvi%2B%2BwlxgCV63K8%3D -----------------— You said I could turn on de view of the galleries in the menus….Where? In the menus I can eliminate or move up or down, but nothing else….

Sorry… I found it yet !!!! At the top of the window…. Sorry for waste your time.

Ok, great!

Sorry for the corrupted link :S

Hi!

How can I translate to Spanish calendar Date&Time picker In make an appointment page?

Thanks

Hi,

Here is the article from our knowledgebase about that: https://proteusthemes.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/200955532-How-to-translate-date-time-picker-

If that doesn’t work, please open there a new support ticket and we’ll help you out!

Great theme. I have tried changing my fonts using the easy google fonts plugin, however it isn’t changing on each of the services page titles. Please see my site title (solutions) and sub titles (1800) which is still in the theme default font. URL is http://www.allstateconstructionsolutions.com.au/solutions/1800roofrail/

Hi, please open a support ticket for this on http://support.proteusthemes.com

Can you tell me how to create the full page slider like in the Carpress Demo?

Hi, you can find detailed instructions in the documentation (folder documentation/index.html) in the extracted zip you downloaded from ThemeForest.

Short instructions: go to wp-admin, Slider > Add new slide. Type in the title and the content, for the slide image you should upload the featured image (1920×592 px). Repeat for each slide.

Hello , is there a way to add a yelp simple social button and the section to add the link? Thanks.

Hi, unfortunately no, as there is no Yelp social icon in the Font Awesome library we use for social icons: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/3.2.1/icons/
