Hello!

I’m interested in buying this theme because it looks so good and I think it will fit my new e-shop needs.

I have already installed Woocommerce and imported all the products etc ( my developers did it actually because I don’t know Wordpress that well ).

Do you provide installation in such a setup? Because I don’t want to import everything from the beginning again, I just need to have a working theme as on the demo ( but with my content – products to be accurate ) so that I can take it from there and customize it as I want.

Thanks a lot for your time!

Hi there,

thanks for getting in touch!

You actually won’t need an install if you’re already up and running with WooCommerce.

Just create a copy of your site for testing purposes and upload and activate the theme. You might need to resize your thumbnails – that’s about it :)

Once you’re happy with everything just re-apply your changes with the new theme to your live site.

Best,

Colm

Hello again and thanks for your fast response :)

Seems I’m missing something…

I’ve installed the theme but it looks like this : www.kaltsodeta.gr

I know somewehere somehow there’s something wrong that I did, but since I had already installed woocommerce and all the products etc, I just installed the theme and activated. I even tried to setup the menus from the documentation but it doesn’t seem to work properly.

If I install the demo data, my products and everything that’s already setup will be deleted?

How easy/hard is it for the theme to be installed and be presented as in the demo? Do you provide such a service?

Hi there,

Drop me an email to support@commercegurus.com with your WP admin user/pass and your control panel (e.g. cpanel user/pass) and I’ll quickly review your setup and then I can advise you as to what needs to be done.

Hi there,

I’m helping a customer with this theme, and we have a big issue. We really want to remove the product featured image from the product details page ONLY.

We want to keep the featured image on the shop page, but want to remove it from the singe product pages. I hope you understand my question.

Thanks a lot!

Kind regards, Markus Harrison

Hi Markus

Hmm, your question isn’t really a theme issue – Captiva just obeys best WooCommerce practice and displays the featured image.

I found this link which might help – http://wpsites.net/web-design/remove-woocommerce-single-thumbnail-images-from-product-details-page/

It would be a good idea to have set up a child theme so no edits are over-written when Captiva is updated.

Hope that helps,

Simon

Hi,

I have used cc avenue gateway and paypal gateway for my website. when I checkout with cc avenue a page comes with order info and thank you note. The note is “Thank you for your order, please click the button below to pay with CCAvenue.” but I can’t see any button for further steps. Please help me with this. My website is “http://www.giftindiatoday.com”. you can check it its live now! Thanks

Hi there

The CCAvenue button markup is there but the code has a “display: none” on it for some reason. This is more of an issue for the plugin developer but if you add this to Captiva Theme Options > Custom Code it should force it to display.

.payment_buttons {
display: block !important;
}

Hello Captiva Team,

I have bought your theme. It’s really awsome and I love this. But I face a problem with my business. I want to make my website to join a marketing website. They mailed me and asked me to add some php code into my site. But I’m a new of wordpress and php. Please help me for this , I think it have to change some code about Captiva and Woocommerce.

This is the following:

This is the cookie code that would need to be put on the home page:

< ----- Put this in the Header, must load first ----—-> <? php setcookie(“ID”, $ _ GET[‘RID’]); ? > < ----- End Code for Home Page ----—->

< ----- Put this in the header of the checkout page or wherever you choose to call this cookie and where it can be submitted with the order ---—> <? php if(isset($ _ COOKIE[‘RID’])) { ??$RID = $ _ COOKIE[‘RID’]; } ? >

< ----—Put this code in the input code area of your form ------->

????? <input name =”ID” type =”” value =”<? echo $RID ? >”?readonly =”true” size =”9” >

< --------- End of Code ------------->

The only thing else would be to set this in your submit pages so that it carries with the order. You can modify this code any way that you see fit to set in your web page. If you are able to get this code to work, your URL would be http://Your WEB Site Address /index.php?RID= and we will send the RID when a customer or distributor clicks on it. This code will capture the RID on the home page in a cookie. Next, this code will call the cookie on the checkout screen where ever the customer will enter their shipping information and include it in the checkout form that you have already created. When they click continue, your pages must contain that value on the page so that it gets submitted with the order and so that you or your system will contain the RID on the order when it comes in for processing. This way you know it came from Market Taiwan. This is rather urgent that you make this happen because we have to be able to track the site id for all orders placed by our Market Taiwan distributors and their customers. You can develop a query tool in your orders file to list all orders with a RID in it and those are all the orders that will represent all Market Taiwan orders and that is what you will report on each month along with commissions.

Hi

If you install the plugin mentioned above: https://wordpress.org/plugins/insert-php/

You will be able to add that code into any page you like.

The other way to do it would be to add it to wp-content/themes/captiva/header.php but like I said I wouldn’t recommend that approach.

Simon

Hi , Simon

thank you for your reply, how about the second part: < ——-——- Put this in the header of the checkout page or wherever you choose to call this cookie and where it can be submitted with the order ———>

<? php if(isset($ _ COOKIE[‘RID’])) { ??$RID = $ _ COOKIE[‘RID’]; } ? > < ——-———Put this code in the input code area of your form ——-——-—>

and the third part:

? <input name =”ID” type =”” value =”<? echo $RID ? >”?readonly =”true” size =”9” >

Where should I put these code?

Lucas

Hi Lucas,

Can you email us to support@commercegurus.com telling us a bit more about what this code is supposed to do. The code fragments you’ve sent won’t do anything by themselves. It could be the case that the marketing company can provide you with a solution for WooCommerce if they’ve worked with it before – because that code alone will not do anything.

Best,

Colm

Hello,

First off lovely theme :)

I do have a few of pre-sale questions

1) How can I have the search bar show on mobile?

2) The logged in ’/my-account’ page does not show dashboard for recent orders?

3) Can the small sliding color banners be changed (is there some type of content management for these small sliding banners)?

Thank you in advance :)

Hi Adrian!

Thanks for your kind words!

1) This is top of our list for the next update :)

2) It does! http://awesomescreenshot.com/0a83t1nvff

3) Yes, we have an Announcements section where you can change the background and text colors of the sliding banners.

My client bought this THEME and installing WPML disappears from the pages VISUAL COMPOSER options, it is a bug?

Hi there,

We’re not aware of any such bugs.

You would need to report this issue to support@commercegurus.com and confirm your clients purchase code.

Thanks,

Colm

Hi, in the demo I can see this nice heart symbol to add products to a wishlist. Is it possible to include the heart directly on the product pictures in the listing pages as well? many thanks stephan

Hi there,

This is possible but would require some custom coding to achieve – it’s not part of the theme configuration options.

Best,

Colm

Hi there lennye63,

thanks for getting in touch!

Can you send me an email to support@commercegurus.com and we’ll be glad to help you out.

I think I know what the issue is re: problem 1 and 3 problem 2 – i think we’ll need to look into that in more detail with you.

hi,

i have a question. We downloaded the template and we have installed the wordpress, but i don’t find the new home smaller slider. Where you can download the new Home smaller slider or find them?

thanks.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch!

If you drop us an email to support@commercegurus.com we’ll send you the smaller slider straight away :)

Colm

hi,

and I sent them an e-mail to support@commercegurus.com from xroselloxtrategics@gmail.com

thanks, Colm

Since this is a mega menu product, how can I gain more control over what’s in the drop down menus?

I would like to be able to add an icon or small image in front of each menu item.

Thanks!

Hi there giantseattle,

thanks for getting in touch!

Our mega menu feature doesn’t currently support that kind of thing. You would need to use something like Ubermenu instead but this is also quite complex to implement.

We do have limited support for adding images in the manner shown on the demo site.

Hi, we recently did an update of the Visual composer (another theme in a farm required the latest version) and now we notice that a whole bunch of grid CSS classes are missing, so the grid modules in VC in our Captiva instance are broken.

We checked the CSS files and realized that in your version, even the filenames are different from the latest version of the composer (inc/plugins/js_composer/assets/css/ folder, see js_composer_front.css vs. js_composer_frontend_editor.css etc.)

Did you customize the bundled version of the plugin, so it’s not updatable, or did the composer devs change the structure and class names with their update so it’s not downwards compatible? Both would leave me a bit … struggled ;-)

Thanks for any hint to fix that (apart from manually adding the missing stuff in my child theme css)

Regards,

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch!

The most recent version of Visual Composer has a completely different grid. We didn’t customize the grid – the VC devs changed it in the most recent version.

For Captiva you should be using version 4.2.3 of Visual Composer. We plan on releasing a 1.5 version of Captiva next week which will provide support for the latest version of VC.

I assume you are in a multisite setup which is why you can’t downgrade to VC 4.2.3?

Colm

Thanks for the quick reply, that makes sense, although quite annoying, suppose I’ll be very hesitant using the VC in future projects. Yes, it’s a multisite setting, but I suppose we’ll just wait for your update then. Hope you’ll release as planned ;-)

Hi there,

Yip I understand your frustration – we’ll definitely have the release as planned next week. If you shoot me an email to support@commercegurus.com and put “VC Grid Fix” in the subject line I’ll get you a new version as early as possible.

Best,

Colm

After reading all of the other entries on filtering, I have a question. First of all, I noticed that your demo did not install any variable products. My understanding is that the AJAX and Yith filters only work on active variations. Is that correct?

On your demo site you are able to filter products by season even though they are not an active attribute available for selection on those products.

My question is how and where do you set that up for those products?

Thanks in advance. The theme is awesome. I just need to figure out the filtering.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch and for the kind words :)

Re: Ajax filters on simple products. This is possible with WooCommerce.

This is an example from our demo site

http://awesomescreenshot.com/0df3r72c31

You can see that you can add attributes to simple products which is what powers the frontend Ajax filters.

This is how the widget is configured

http://awesomescreenshot.com/0df3r72c31

You also obviously need to create some seasons as attributes too :)

Hope this helps,

Colm

On the Homepage-ecommerce page, I added the following shortcode, recent_products and featured_products, after doing so, the “add to cart” layer now appears below the image and no longer over the image.

Can you let me know how to resolve this problem.

Hi there,

thanks for getting in touch!

If you send us your site details and WP admin user/pass to support@commercegurus.com we’ll take a look for you asap.

Hello

I am setting up the theme for a client, and I am encountering a problem with the background image for a row.. I would like to use a static background image for one of the rows placed lower on the page, however, the image is showing up at the top of the page.. link attached: http://ninetails.com.au/66721-2/

Thanks

Hi there,

thanks for getting in touch!

If you can send us an email to support@commercegurus.com with your WP Admin user/pass we should be able to take a look for you.

As you’re posting this comment from an unverified account we’ll also need you to confirm your purchase code in the email – thanks!

Simon

I delete the Ultimate_VC_Addons and I can see my website now. But what’s the problem about Ultimate_VC_Addons?

Hi

Ultimate Addons should work fine, we would need to log in and see if something’s up with your setup.

hi,

I have a question. I’m the admin of my website. Is it possible to limit other users who like: shopmanager,writer to limit them not able to use visual composer when they edit the page?

but they can still use the normal edit mode in wordpress.

I’m sorry I’m not good at speaking English. Hope you can understand what I’m talking about.

thanks a lot!

Hello there!

Hmm, I’m not sure there will be an option to allow users to edit pages yet not use Visual Composer.

There’s a good plugin for general user permissions – ‘User Role Editor’ – https://wordpress.org/plugins/user-role-editor/

And a tutorial on it here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-add-or-remove-capabilities-to-user-roles-in-wordpress/

Hi,

I’ve just bought your theme and I have a question :) I’ve already use wordpress to do a website and this time I can’t see the previews of the pages or articles I’m working on, all the time I’m redirected to the construction page of my website. Could you help me with that please?

Thank you very much in advance, Best,

Alex

And sorry for this other question but I don’t understand why I can’t load Advanced Custom Fields and Envato Toolkit plugin.

Ok so plugin’s problems resolved. :) I’ve still some difficulties with the main menu. I don’t know how to put a slider on it like on your theme demo (would like to try the big one and the smaller one). And I still can’t see my home page published, neither in preview. Thanks in advance.

Hi Alex,

Thanks for getting in touch!

We cover how to create the slider in the theme documentation – if you take a look in the main download zip package you’ll find a folder called Documentation which includes details on how to import the demo sliders that come with the theme.

Have a look and let me know if that helps. If not, shoot me an email to support@commercegurus.com with your site url and admin user/pass.

Thanks,

Colm

Hi,

I have purchased and are installing this theme. There is a problem that is the visual composer make the page loading is very slow, averaging about 10 seconds to load a page. How to speed up the loading of web pages that still use this plugin because this plugin is very handy and I like it???

Thank you.

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch!

Please send us your site url and your WP admin user/pass to support@commercegurus.com and we’ll inspect your setup to see if there is an issue or if it’s simply a case of you upgrading your hosting to a better server. Visual Composer can slow down loading times on low powered servers.

Best,

Colm

Hello, can you advise on how to enlarge the logo on the mobile version only? The logo appears smaller than what the client wants. Thank you!

Hi!

In Captiva Theme Options > Header settings you can adjust the mobile device header height. Making that bigger should also increase the logo size :)

Best

Simon

Simon, you’re the best, thank you! That was perfect.

Hi, I have sent you guys an email requesting assistance. Did you guys find it?

Hi there,

Thanks for getting in touch!

Can you confirm your email address and I’ll confirm if we received your email?
