Paulo,

I don’t think you are quite understanding what the demo content is/isn’t. It is simply content added to a page then set as the homepage. In theory, you could take the content you see on one and use it on another page in the same site, but don’t think of the Integrity 1, 2, etc as styles they are just examples. Structurally, you can’t mix them either because Integrity 1 has a different structural layout then Integrity 2.

Thanks. But what would be your suggestion to get “different looks” for different parts of the site? Create them using Visual Composer?

Sure, we simply turned it off.

Ok thanks! I would like to create a single page website similar to Integrity demo n.7. I don’t understand if is possible to use pages like services or about us into a single page website or if they need to be separate pages on different urls?

You’re welcome

I’m not quite following the question as you can do either. If you are building a one page site then you would put the content of your About and Services on the one pager, however you could have your one pager link out to another page (About or Services for example) if you wanted. It’s up to you.

Is it possible to import the demo so that I can start working from there?

Yes. We provide demo content in our member center for customers (accessible after registering post-purchase).

Ok. I just purchased it! One question: what is the font used in Integrity demo n.7 on the revolution slider (“we design to impress”) and how can I have it?

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in and for the kind words about X! The only headings that we will include some amount of responsive styling for is post or page headings as we can easily predict how these are to be used within a layout and how they affect other content.

With regards to actual headings in content that a user might write in themselves, we do not provide any responsive styling for this as there is no easy way to determine how a user might implement this heading (i.e. if they’re styling it differently, utilizing our [custom_heading] or [feature_heading] shortcode with a different “level” selected to make it appear differently, et cetera).

Whether or not the heading has a span does not determine if it does not scale down, those are simply headings we’re placing in our content using our shortcodes, which do not feature responsive styling for the reasons listed above. If you want, we can certainly guide you through how to include various media queries in your theme to target certain headings and make them respond as the site gets smaller, or you can use our [responsive_text] shortcode if you’d like for a more fluid font size adjustment.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your fast response, that´s impressive too! I understand that the span element doesn´t determine scaling by itself, I just wondered why you didn´t use scalable headings all the way in your demo, since that makes it easier to see how the theme behaves on different screen sizes. Poor explaining from me.

I think you forgot to answer my other questions regarding the Theme Customizer. Would be nice to know those things too.

All the best!

Hey There,

Sorry about missing your last couple of questions regarding the Customizer. You can style nearly ever facet of the buttons. You can determine the style (3D, flat, or transparent), the shape (square, rounded, or pill) and the base size for all buttons across your site. Additionally, you can choose the text color, background color, border color, and button bottom color (if you’re using the 3D style), as well as all of these colors for the hover state of your buttons. While we do not have an option to remove the text shadow in the theme, you could easily accomplish this with a little CSS.

As for saving “drafts” of the Customizer, you could easily achieve this using our custom import/export functionality for the Customizer. With this, you can create a backup of your settings at any point, and use that sort of like a “save” for when you have some settings you like. If you want to revert back to a previous option, simply upload it and you’ll be good to go! The Customizer works in a live preview fashion, so none of your changes are pushed live until you hit the “Save” button inside of it, but you will be able to see your changes in the Customizer in real time, even before you save them.

Thanks!

Ah, forgot one question: how well is Visual Composer integrated with the theme? I have built sites with other themes that have VC bundled, and where VC still has it´s own styles on buttons etc. Not so good if a novice is supposed to maintain and update the site, since some design elements will not comply with theme design. Also, how well do you follow updates of bundled plugins like VC, updating your theme to include the latest versions?

Thanks!

We use a customized version of VC with X. It is custom tailored to work with our Shortcodes, and that is the version we keep updated/working with X. As such, we do not provide support for the standard plugin or include all features due to how the tool is used within X. Customers are certainly welcome to use any 3rd party plugin they wish, however from a support and compatibility standpoint, we only support and guarantee compatibility for the one integrated with the theme.

That sounds like a wise approach. Does this mean that any custom styles created with Customizer is usable from VC? Or maybe it’s the other way around, styles created in Customizer is “assigned” to existing shortcodes, and therefore usable in VC?

The Customizer and VC have nothing to do with each other. The Customizer is for site configuration, layout, typography, button styles, etc whereas VC is for building pages. You can see a video of our Customizer in action here.

OK. I’ll try an example: let’s say I alter a button style in Customizer. Then I will want to use that button when I build my page in VC. I thought maybe Customizer creates a custom stylesheet that overrides theme default css, and makes customized design elements available in VC that way. Do you see what I mean?

It doesn’t work that way…you simply set the button style globally in the Customizer, then wherever a button is placed on your site (say on a page you built with VC) it will have that style. You can alternatively add custom CSS on an individual button basis if you don’t want to use the global feature set in the Customizer.

OK. But when I set a button style globally in Customizer, the css values has to be stored somewhere, right? Like in a stylesheet that VC could be made to access too. I thought maybe that was one of your custom VC alterations. I just want to make sure that even a novice can build pages and use all types of styled elements in the theme through VC. In the theme I am working with now, VC has its own button styles (accessible from dropdowns in VC, fetched from VC:s own css/js/php files) which are very different from the theme buttons. You have to use the standard WP admin editor and put in shortcodes manually to use the themes designed buttons. Something you would not want a novice person doing, since there is a high risk of messing things up.

Hey there,

We do not use any of Visual Composer’s native styling. When you set your global styles using the Customizer they’re stored in a compressed output on your website. If you were to then add a button via Visual Composer, the button would acquire that global styling. As mentioned above, you can alter this further with some extra CSS, but the button itself will take your global styling from the Customizer and has no other options as we do not use any default Visual Composer styling or functionality. We have completely overhauled Visual Composer to simply use it as a drag and drop framework on the backend for our shortcodes, but not Visual Composer shortcodes, styling, or functionality is output on the front of the site.

Thanks!

Thanks! That´s all I needed to know.

My pleasure

Hi,

I have now purchased the theme and have been fiddling around a bit. It´s great that you have videos and faq´s on your support site, where one can find answers to a lot of how to:s.It´s also great that there is an option to apply your own classes to elements in your custom VC implementation.

This would be even greater if you could store the classes you create and make them accesible through a dropdown in the edit box (maybe also with an optional friendly name)t, rather than typing classnames in manually. Let´s say I build a site for a client and hand the site over to the client to maintain and update. It will then be hard for them to now what classes are created, since they only exist in custom css and the administrator of the site will have to remember all created class names and might not even know these things work.

I also wonder if it is possible to style woocommerce elements from wp-admin somehow?

Thanks!

Hi There,

Thanks for writing in and for your kind words! That is certainly an interesting idea for managing class names. While in theory I can see some benefits for this, I think in practice this it could potentially make things more confusing, especially for an end user. Regardless of whether or not your custom classes are in a dropdown to be selected or need to be manually typed, you will need to instruct your users on how to implement a class if needed on a section of content, so it doesn’t really eliminate that need to instruct or administer, it only slightly abstracts away some of the functionality of typing. As always, we will certainly take this idea into consideration, but cannot guarantee any implementation into the theme as we must ensure that any new additions can truly benefit the majority of our users.

Regarding the styling of WooCommerce elements, this is something you will need to do either via the “Custom” section in the Customizer or via a stylesheet in a child theme (if you are using one) to add CSS. The options included in the Customizer for WooCommerce have more to do with layout and functionality setup, and the design of these elements is meant to integrate with the overall styling of the Stack as well as certain option you choose (for instance, your global button styles are applied throughout the shop, et cetera).

If you need anything further, we’ll look forward to seeing you in the member forums as that is where all support is provided.

Thanks!

Hi,

Thanks for your usual quick response. Yes, I will of course have to instruct users on how to implement classes, among other things. But if classes created are stored and resuseable, and a friendly name explaining what the class is for is also attached, I am sure that all users could benefit from this. I imagine it might also be hard to remember the classes one creates over time, so I think this could be really useful.

Regarding styling of woocommerce: there are not so many things one can alter via the Customizer. What is implemented by you “behind the scenes” when it comes to woocommerce styling? Could I copy the woocommerce native stylesheet into my child theme folder and style things from there, overriding woocommerce default styling? I also notice that checking the “Disable Pge title” has no effect on woocommerce pages. How can this be done?

Thanks!

Hi Kristian,

There is not an option for either of those features out of the box – would require customization.

Appreciate the kind words! Let us know if you need anything further

OK thanks!

Just a second thought – would I be able to make my post archive like the Portfolio page seen here – http://theme.co/x/demo/ethos/1/portfolio/ ?

Or is this, again, doable through customization?

Thanks!

Hi There,

Once the Stack is selected (say Renew), you would click the Renew tab in the Customizer and select the appropriate color under the respective section in that tab. If you need anything further, a member of our development team will be happy to assist in our member forum. If you haven’t registered for access yet, you can do so here.

Cheers!

Thanks but I don’t see the same options for Integrity
