Hi, may I know where I can purchase the main image on the homepage of version Home13? The one with “DOCK STREET MARKET” on the door.

Thank you!

Hi there,

That background image is free for personal use. :)

Hi

Could you tell me how I can hide this from my posts, I really don’t need it and find it distracting. A Custom CSS will help.

I registered for support but i have not received an email confirmation, so no password.

div.blog-head.clearfix

Hello there!

And sure, if you want to hide an element with that specific class, just insert the code into your Custom CSS section:

.div.blog-head.clearfix, div.details { display:none; }

Best Regards,
Filip

Thank’s. That does a wonderful job for my purposes.

You are very welcome! :)

Hi Veented, good job. Great.

Hi Venteed,

I am on the ‘home’ page, and for the likes of me i cannot see where you get the video of the racing car on the testimonials.

thanks

Hi there,

Just edit the Row settings where your Testimonials element is located (little pencil icon on the right), switch to the Video Background tab and insert your YouTube or Vimeo video ID. :)

Filip

Hi there

Love the theme. Could you perhaps tell me if there is a way to speed up the load speed at all? or is the load speed depended on the image sizes etc. I want to use the theme for educational purposes the third party plugin adopts the themes styles which will look pretty awesome.

Is there the option to just add audio?

thanks

Hi there,

Thanks for the kind words!

As for the load time, I suggest you to try the W3 Total Cache plugin – it’s one of the best when it comes to speed optimization of a WordPress website! ;)

Filip

Thanks, made the purchase and finding my way around.

Can you turn of moble responsiveness I hate they way websites look on cellphones … i want my website to look the same as it does on the computer when I pull it up on my smart phone …. can you turn off the mobile responsiveness with these theme …. just want to know … if so i will purchase.

Hi there,

Thank you for the interest! And sure, it’s possible to disable the responsive mode. After you purchase the theme, please drop me a private message on veented@gmail.com and I’ll be glad to guide you through!

Hi, seems a very nice template! Two questions:

1. Is it possible to have a row with a fullwidth background?

2. And is it possible to have a row fullheight?

I can’t see these two options in the WpBakery demo…

Thanks a lot!

Florian

Hi Florian,

Thanks for the interest and kind words!

1. But of course. You can see lots of examples on the theme’s preview – is it something you cannot see there?

2. Well, you can see an example on the Home 8 version:

Hi Filip,

For some reason, the twitter feed doesn’t display any of the text and I get this error code on the front page “Warning: unserialize() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in /home2/conradfs/public_html/wp-content/plugins/vntd-twitter/OAuthTwitter.php on line 177”

Can you please tell me why that is? My website is www.formedspace.com I would like to have twitter feed be my news feed for the website. THanks!

You are very welcome! And please don’t forget to rate the theme, we would truly appreciate it. :)

Can you please tell me where I can go to rate this theme? This is the first I’ve purchased here off of themeforest and cannot find the link or location to do so. Thanks!

Hi there,

Just visit your Downloads tab on ThemeForest. ;)

If you want to cause yourself hours of aggravation, then make sure to install WooCommerce into this theme. For a theme that says they don’t have support for Woocommerce, then WHY? OH WHY? would they hardcode the product images to be what THEY want them to be?! Why do this? It took me hours to find out why every time I changed the image sizes, they would default back to what North WANTS them to be. Really? Sorry…it’s a nice them on the outside, but there’s more bugs in it then a NY subway. Add that to the useless page builder and you got yourself wasted money. Will never buy from this author again.

If the theme doesn’t support woocommerce, then why do you mess with the woocommerce files? You have several files in your theme that reference woocommerce, including style sheets and function files. Why?

You hardcoded the catalog, single and thumbnail images to the point that not matter what you set in your woocommerce settings…it still won’t work, because your theme overides it?! Why do you do this if you don’t support woocommerce??

Why is there a WOOCOMMERCE section in your theme’s options, if YOUR THEME DOESN’T SUPPORT WOOCOMMERCE? The options don’t even work! No matter what layout you choose (full, left sidebar, right sidebar) the page is stretched across the screen all the way to the very edge. The image is tremendous! I have been trying to fix this for the past 5 hours. 5 hours of my life for something you put in your theme, but claim you don’t support.

The single product page is HUGE! I reduced the image size in your woocommerce config.php that resides in the woocommerce folder in YOUR theme.See here: http://walkingtemples.com/product/portion-of-the-sea/ The pages in this theme all start at the very top with the page title showing behind the header. I can correct that oin the other pages by adding padding to the first row I place in. But since product pages are not editable that way, the title and part of the product info is all the way in the header.

So, I had top create pages calling that product, just so it can display correctly. SEE HERE: http://walkingtemples.com/novels/portion-of-the-sea/ But this is NOT a good solution, because when someone clicks on the product from another page, they go to the default product page…the page that’s messed up.

In closing, Unless you can fix this issue by tomorrow, I am screwed, as the client gets it tomorrow. It is unfair of you to create a theme, add tons of edits to a plugin you claim you do not support….and then tell customers “But you don’t see woocommerce mentioned on my site” Really? That’s tha game you play? Like I said, I will not be buying anything from you again, because I see you are already setting me up for no help at all. Your reply says it all. This theme is geared towards wordpress newbies who don’t realize how terrible it is coded.

I just found another way you’re deceiving people. You have the reviews on your front page that put people under the impression they are recent reviews from today, as none of them are more than a day old. PEOPLE SHOULD KNOW THEY ARE IMAGES AND NOT RECENT AT ALL. Are you going to say it’s a coincidence that none of them say “1 month ago” or anything older than a day? I understand you want to sell your theme, but where I come from, I treat my customers with respect and don’t assume they are stupid.

Hello there,

The woocommerce files are a part of our WordPress themes framework (the same one is used for our previous, Renown theme that fully supports the plugin) and we have plans to introduce a full support for North in a future. Disabling the framework functions is a matter of 1sec line edit but you have never given us a chance to help you with the issue. It is unkind for you to say that we lie about it – the theme is not advertised to support the WooCommerce so it is unfair to rate it 1 star because it doesn’t.

As for the reviews – people whose comments are posted under the item description page used the very same theme files as you do so I don’t really see a difference if the time stamp is 2 hours, few days or a month. They were based on the impression of the very same theme as you do, not a different one. You can see those reviews in the item description of almost all themes recently and everyone is fine about it.

Regarding the theme support – if you had any troubles with the theme, you should have contacted us right away – we usually reply within 12 hours (24 hours at max) and would definitely help you sort all of your issues.

And lastly – please stop telling that we do not respect our customers. Please contact any of our 7000 customers and I promise that 99% of them would recommend our products. Just check our Support Forums and over 1000 topics/issues solved where people post they never experienced a better support before that prove that what you say is not true in any bit.

If you decide to give it a chance, you can send us a private message on veented@gmail.com and we will still be glad to help you with your issues.

Filip

Nice theme!! Good work Veented!! All.. have to buy this theme.. I appreciate your work.. hope in next updates sure that you give us good news! ???? star for you!

Hi there,

Thank you for the purchase and kind words!

And we are releasing an update fixing minor bug fixes in a bit, thanks!

Filip

Hi,

First of all, the theme is great :)

But despite this, I’ve ran into a problem, which I can not fix by myself. I’ve started to build a page by modifying the demo content. In the first round I had to delete the Porfolio Carousel. But later we realized we would like to use it. And here comes my problem, it does not show properly. Insted of putting them in one horizontal line, they are vertically aligned and the texts are on the top image, all of them in one place. And I have a similar problem with Testimony Carousel as well. I could not figure out what is the problem. I’ve tried to check the shortcode of a properly working version, but it seems the same to me. I’m not an expert in programming, so I would really appreaciate if you could describe me what should I do in details :) Thanks!

Hello Filip,

Thanks for the quick answer. Just one more thing. I’ve tried to set up the update via the information given in the documentation, but I do not find the Install/Update button anywhere. :) Could you help me with that also?

Hello Filip, In the meantime I’ve checked my version and I’m already using the 1.2.2 version of the theme. We bought it at the beginning of October. So I think that is why I have not seen the update button. But this way I will have to ask you what to do with my main problem. Thanks!

Hi again,

It’s very odd then! Please send me your WP login credentials privately on veented@gmail.com and I’ll debug it for you. :)

Filip

Hej, first thank you for the great theme – I do love it and the rest of my team is loving it too. Some ideas: more woocommerce could come in handy – but is no must.

Found a bug: when adding something in social part of the “Contact Block” the link is in the website and not external – maybe should take a look in that…(maybe add it as option in the north menu? social)?

the mobile version works just perfect and right now we are thrilled.

keep up the good work.

Hi there,

Thank you so much for the purchase and kind words! :)

As for the issue – please make sure that you include the ‘http://' prefix when inserting a link. :)

Regards,
Filip

Perfect – thank you. (should consider it as tooltip on the field?) :-)

have a great week.

You are very welcome, I’m glad i could help! :)

All the best,
Filip

Hi, before purchasing your theme can you confirm that it has a shopping cart feature? I noticed on the demo where you have pricing tables you have a buy now button. Do you have any screen shots of what your theme shop is. Or is that something I’d have to purchase through an additional plugin? Thanks!

Hello there,

Thank you for the interest!

I’m truly sorry but the theme does currently not support e-commerce plugins. If we receive more requests about it, we will definitely add it in a next theme update. :)

Best Regards,
Filip

Hi,

I have same question as I had in HTML version. Can I make the video fixed in the background so that it scrolls with page and its in the bg of every content. How can I do it in Wordpress version.

And

Is there a way to adding blog content in homepage? Like list of recent blog post same as portfolio and testimonials.

Thanks

Hello there,

Thank you for the purchase!

1. I’m truly sorry but it is currently not possible without some additional changes in the theme’s code.

2. Thank you for a suggestion! It is currently not possible but we will definitely consider adding such an element in a next theme update! :)

Filip

Is it possible to add a FAQ element to a TAB element so I can have collapsible content within each tab, defaulting to closed – when I try it, the content, when expanded, is hidden.

Hello there,

Can you please drop me an example page URL privately on veented@gmail.com with as much details as possible so I can take a closer look? :)

Love the theme! Having a bit of issues with upload. My domain name is registered with GoDaddy, Formedspace.com, and my blog is set at wordpress with the domain name being mapped to wordpress. I bought a subscription to host with hostgator to see how things work. With quick install I tried to install the wordpress software but when I click on finished tab it still shows me the ‘Error 404’. www.formedspace.com

Please help. it’s been happening since yesterday. Where did I go wrong? Is this an issue with my domain mapping to wordpress or a hosting issue? any advice would be much appreciated, thanks!

Hello there,

Thank you for the purchase and kind words. :)

As for the issue – please contact your host provider (Hostgator) as it’s the server side issue, not theme’s (as you don’t even have WordPress installed yet!). They should be able help you right away. :)

Regards,
Filip

Thats what I figured…never hurts to ask though! Thanks for the quick response. I do appreciate it.

You are very welcome! :)

I am having trouble with the logo carousel. When ever I try to add my own custom logo’s (no matter the size or file type) they are displayed extremely smaller than the logos in the demo were (sony, vimeo, ect…). Is there particular file guidelines need to be followed in order to have them displayed the same size as your demo’s were?

Thanks for the future and previous support. I love the theme!

Sincerely, Don

Hello Don!
