Hello, I’m contacting you on behalf of a client that purchased your theme. The variation dropdowns on the product page of some products don’t work. They seem to lock up after making an initial selection and new options can’t be selected. I noticed this only happens when variations have certain settings, as an example:
A product has S,M,L sizes and comes in Red, Back and Green. Red and Black are available in all sizes however Green only comes in Large. When I set the variations to represent this, the dropdowns on that product page will lock up instead of filtering the proper options.
Thank you for your time and please let me know if you need further information.
Hi there,
thanks for getting in touch!
If you can email support@commercegurus.com with your clients purchase code and your sites hosting control panel (e.g. cpanel) access details we’ll take a look at this for you asap.

Hi,
I bought your theme the last week and I have a problem with pagination on the store page. pagination doesn’t work! Could you take a look and show me how can i solved it?
Sorry for my english :s
Thanks a lot.
Hi there!
Sometimes in WordPress the permalinks needs to be re-saved which affects pagination.
Try going to Permalinks > Settings and clicking ‘Save’.
If that doesn’t work, send us the link and a WP login to support@commercegurus.com and we’ll take a look.

Hi,
When can we get next update of the Captiva theme with the following?
1. Multi Currency 2. Quick View
Regards Sree
Hi there Sree
You can add Multi Currency to Captiva with the WPML plugin – www.wpml.org
We’ll look at adding Quick View to our future requests but we can’t give a definite timeframe I’m afraid

hi! i need to press enter twice(or click on search twice) to search in the ajax search that came with the theme, tried to get support from the plugin creator but they don’t support captiva theme (the captiva theme is not on their support list even if i enter purchase code) can you please help ? isravelo.com (search is on the top right corner)
also in mobile if the product have only one picture, then the picture disapear , if the product have more then one image then the thumbnail are so big that they take all of the screen, is there a css solution ?
Hi there lennye63,
Re: ajax search – the rendering of the search box does not match our theme demo e.g.
http://captivatheme1.commercegurus.com/You’ll need to check back and see what code changes you’ve made are interfering with how we’ve styled the search box.
Re: mobile and product only having one picture – this is not a bug with the theme as we distribute it – again this must be related to your customizations.
My advice would be to do a clean Captiva install and then re-introduce your customizations one by one to see where the problem originates.
I’m available on support@commercegurus.com if you then have specific questions.

Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to show the top bar on mobile, with search bar but after tablet size it disappears, where would the code for this be ?
Thanks for the support you guys are awesome!
Hi there Adrian,
There are a series of media queries which hide the top bar once you get down to smaller devices.
i wouldn’t recommend changing the way it currently works as you’ll really need a custom header.php.
If you still want to go down that road make sure you do this via a child theme
http://www.commercegurus.com/2014/09/26/starter-child-theme-captiva-released/You’ll also need to modify the media queries that are called via /captiva/css/responsive.css
Again this will not be a straightforward task unless you’re very familiar with responsive design.

Hello again and thank you for your assistance in my previous troubles, you’ve been very helpful.
I got a new question: how can i remove the page title from the Page Banner image?
Also can you recommend a “products category sidebar widget” for the woo commerce (product page and product categories) because the current one is too simple..
Thanks again,
Nikos Z
Hi Nikos,
Re: removing title from the Page Banner
via custom css
.cap-strip-content h1 { display: none; }
Re: Alternative products category sidebar widget – I don’t currently have any alternatives to recommend as we’ve not tested any alternatives.
There are ones like this: http://codecanyon.net/item/woocommerce-category-accordion/7117371But please note I’ve not tested them and we do not provide support for third party plugins. You could check with the developer though there if you have any pre sale questions.

Hi,
My client’s website uses Captiva, and their Woocommerce checkout page does not scroll to see the rest of the form. Can you explain how to fix this?
Thanks!!
Hi there,
This is not a problem with the theme – just take a look at the main demo sites checkout page for comparison.
It’s most likely either some custom css/html which is breaking the page or a plugin conflict.
Best,
Colm
The website was with GoDaddy before and was working perfectly. When it was transferred over to the new host, the scroll feature on the checkout page stopped working. Do you have any advice or insights of what happened?
Thanks for your patience!
Best regards,
Jacob
Hi there,
It’s most likely a restriction your new host has on some key WooCommerce js files for storing sessions (my guess without seeing anything).
If you see errors in the Chrome web console this would be the most likely reason for this kind of issue.
Best,
Colm
Does this theme have any php restrictions or settings that are required on the server?
Hi there hikemysite,
Thanks for getting in touch!
No nothing specific for the theme – nothing different from standard WordPress / WooCommerce requirements.

Colm
Colm,
Thank you for your help! I apologize for all of the questions, but my client needs their website launched by morning!

How do you access the shortcode to list SALE items on the homepage?
Hi there!
You would use a WooCommerce shortcode – the sale one is #14 on the menu – http://docs.woothemes.com/document/woocommerce-shortcodes/

Hi Do you know why when I activate Envato Wordpress Toolkit I get the following error message on all admin /frontend pages?
Notice: Use of undefined constant NONCE_KEY – assumed ‘NONCE_KEY’ ... wp-content/plugins/envato-wordpress-toolkit-master/index.php on line 105
I have already added the the security keys from http://api.wordpress.org/secret-key/1.1/ to wp-config.php
Thanks
Hi Foxtail
You shouldn’t need to add any keys to wp-config. I’d remove them and disable any security plugins. Then disable the Envato toolkit – I’ve done it loads of times without issue.

Simon
Thanks for the reply. Have disabled Envato toolkit
Hi,
I am using a currency switcher plugin by Aelia for woocommerce and i want to know if i can somehow use the country dropdown in the theme thats meant for WPML?
http://aelia.co/shop/currency-switcher-woocommerce/Thank you.
Hi there
Thanks for getting in touch! We’d recommend WPML really, Captiva has been designed with that in mind.
Best
Simon
Hi,
Ok i have purchased and configured WPML but the dropdown doesnt seem to work on any pages except the cart, checkout and 404 error pages???..
Hi synergysupply
Have you followed the WPML Getting Started Guide? http://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/ – you need to create language versions of each page for WPML to work.

Hello, Captiva Team
The theme is very good! I have some questions with the theme:
1. If I don’t want to spend money to use WPML. Does this theme compatible with the plugin “Polylang”?
https://wordpress.org/plugins/polylang/2. If I want to make a specific page to use a different css from other pages. How should I do? ex. I want to make the top bar, head , nav menu , footer use { displa: none } to make them all disappear in the home page.
now I’m thinking that I can build a css file and read the css file to override the original css file only in the homepage,but I don’t know what code should I add.
Please give me some hints to show me what code should I add and where should I add.
thanks a lot
Best regard, chenghsuan code should I
Hi there chenghsuango,
Thanks for your kind comments 
Re: 1.) I don’t know about Polylang. I know many of our customers have used qTranslate https://wordpress.org/plugins/qtranslate/
Re: 2.) First of all I would recommend you use a child theme. http://www.commercegurus.com/2014/09/26/starter-child-theme-captiva-released/Second, to target just your homepage you can use page classes like this
http://prntscr.com/59mw0vSo to hide the top bar just on your homepage would be
.home #top {
display: none;
}
You should be able to work out the other classes from this example

Hello, Love the theme! I’m just having a couple issues with the store.
1. I don’t see an “add to cart button” just the wishlist option. 2. When I add variations such as color and size, they do not show up either.
Help!
http://www.jessicadrown.com/shop/Hi there,
thanks for getting in touch!
It looks like you enabled Catalog mode – take a look in Captiva Theme Options -> WooCommerce General Settings – > Catalog Mode
ensure it is set to disabled and then save your theme options.
If it is please already set to be disabled send me your WP Admin user/pass and I’ll take a look.

I replied via email but this fixed it. Thanks! Great support!
I created a menu using Appearance -> Menus -> Edit Menus and cannot add items (pages, links, etc.). The spinner goes on forever.

What hosting sites do you recommend?
Hi there,
It really depends on your volume of traffic your site and shop get.
For smaller sites/shops we highly recommend Siteground http://www.commercegurus.com/siteground

Hello,
A few problems i’m having with your charming theme:
- I read in your documentation about the option to add a banner in a product category, but this option is not visible in my installation.
- The sidebar for the shop/products pages is too simple, can i tweak it to look more fancy?
- The parallax effect is not working, the image is fixed at the top of the page or, no matter what i tried.

Please help. I would like to know how to have products displaying is the “RECOMMENDED FOR YOU” section on the ecommerce homepage (top section). If I add products it only displays in the “LATEST PRODUCT” section. Anyone? would appreciate some help in this regards.
Many thanks.

Hi Andre!
You need to click on the star beside an item under ‘Products’. See the screenshot here: http://awesomescreenshot.com/06a3vpb08a

Hi RumboDigital,

Hi,
I purchased your theme recently but every row has a bottom-margin of 35px which leaves a white space. I have tried searching for ways to resolve it with cutsom css but even pasting the following:
.wpb_row, .wpb_content_element, ul.wpb_thumbnails-fluid > li, .last_toggle_el_margin, .wpb_button { margin-bottom: 35px; }
In to the custom css section and changing the margin size does not change a thing.
People speak about changing the margin in the visual composor settings but the version included with your theme does not include this.
It is driving me nuts, please help.
Hi there
Thanks for getting in touch!
Setting the row margin should work – Edit Row > Design Options and put ‘0’ in the bottom margin box. Screenshot: http://awesomescreenshot.com/0de3vjl92a
Let me know if it doesn’t.
Best
Simon
Woo! Thanks for the super fast reply! It works!
Is there a way to apply this globally though rather then to each individual row?
Glad that worked!
Something like this in Captiva Theme Options > Custom Code might work. I’d say it’ll affect some layouts & shortcodes though so a case-by-case basis is probably safer.
.wpb_row { margin-bottom: 0px !important; }
