Hi RealWondah,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
I’m afraid that isn’t possible without heavy code customization, as the theme was designed to work/look that way, and for the title to be overlapping properly like it does, required specific HTML output, CSS code and Javascript code, and to change it would require you to change all of that.
Cubell
Ok its a pity i dont know why you choose this stairs form but why not ^^
It was a design choice, I really like it and it was different to anything out there at the time of development 
Hey,
Great looking theme – definitely considering purchasing. I have a few questions though.
Firstly, is it possible to change the info that overlays each image on the home page e.g. author, views etc. I want it to display the number of ‘shares’ that have been made via Facebook. How would this be done, if so?
Also – is it possible for the number of comments displayed to show those made on the website AND through the Facebook plugin?
Finally – is it possible to shorten the gap between section headers and the info? E.g. you’ve got ‘Recent Posts’ and then there’s a big white space. Ideally like to get rid of that so it matches the alignment of the left column.
Thanks
Oh and also – is the ‘Like’ button at the end of each post actually just a share button? If so, would ideally like to change that to say share too. Thanks.
Hey Gubbins123,
Thanks for the kind words and interest in Valenti
1- No, the “by line” has options to enable/disable each item inside it (author/date/category/comments/visits), but to add new things, you would need to customize the code.
2- I don’t think so, as Facebook comment stats are on Facebook servers, and I don’t think there is an easy way to access it. If you use Disqus comment system, then the comment numbers will get the data from Disqus servers (Disqus allows developers to add this functionality).
3- Can you share the exact URL of where you mean? But it sounds like it’s just a simple line of CSS code, and you can add custom CSS to the theme in the theme options.
4- It’s the like button, the share button uses different Facebook code, and you’d have to edit the code of the Valenti sharing block to get the share button there. Although you could disable the Valenti sharing block and install a sharing plugin that has it already.
I hope this information is useful!

Hi, sorry I was on another user “Wzarlon” – I cannot seem to be able to reply to the other one
And thanks – found the field to enter my other post type (in this example its the plugin bepro_listings I enter) – but I do not see any change in the modules. I will try run over the documentation again.
And hope for the 50% shortcode module box also one day
Ok been over the docs – and sadly I cannot see any difference when adding my custom post type.. As mentioned it’s bepro_listings from the plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bepro-listings/ It’s a classified system, got it’s own categories within that post type and listings with the post type.. I can’t seem to select any of those, even with the post type added to Go to Appearance ? Theme Options ? Custom Code
It’s not a hugh problem, as I am able to pull the data via shortcodes instead (but then the 50% shortcode module is very needed )
Hey again,
No problem, thanks for logging in with this account, really appreciate it
I will definitely be adding a 50% shortcode module in an upcoming update!
And regarding the posts, if you hover your mouse over the custom post type title in the WordPress backend menu, you should see a URL in the bottom of your browser, where the custom post name appears, is that what you entered into the custom post option in the theme options of the theme?
Cubell
The post type I find inside the plugin itself where it lists my listings. it states: ”/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=bepro_listings” and I use that bepro_listings
One interesting thing is it seems the widgets now find them in eg. the Latest posts—but I don’t get anything new in the pagebuilder hmm.
And Thanks, the 50% will help us a ton.
One smaller bug I just found: The breadcrumb for tags does not point correctly (it grabs the category of top post instead of the actual tag category)
Ah I see, that is definitely the correct post name then. When you say the widgets find them, do you mean they appear in them automatically? Or you can see the categories for the,?
Yes I have wanted to add a 50% shortcode module for a while, but had to delay it because of other bugs/feature priorities, but I will definitely be adding it soon.
And thanks for the report about the tags, never realized that! will definitely fix in next update too.
Thanks again!
Cubell
Hi, sorry for not being clear,
After adding bepro_listings in the Post Type field in your Theme Options, I now see those posts in the Valenti Latest Post Widget when I select “All categories” – if the post_type is not added in Theme Options, the Latest Post widget wont show them. = All good and how I hoped it would work.
But for the drag and drop builder, I do not have any sign on the new post type—hope im not the one being blind, but looking all over for any kind of option.
Thanks regarding the tag fix
And now since I got you – one more request – The Valenti bbpress widget for recent topics, 2 words are not in the language file.
Started by XXXX 0 replies <- “started by” and “replies” seem hardcoded.
I’m not quite sure where to find this translation, if it is at bbpress or you
quote: “Ah I see, that is definitely the correct post name then. When you say the widgets find them, do you mean they appear in them automatically? Or you can see the categories for the,?”
No the categories are not visible in the drop down, but if I just use the All Categories option, it will pull them, while I added the post type to the Theme Options
Hey again,
Ah I see! Well, the theme doesn’t need/use any custom posts (not very good for long-term maintenance, if users ever change themes, the custom posts would cause problems), but as some users create custom posts from plugins/old themes, I coded in the ability for users to tell Valenti about the existence of custom posts. And if you assign custom posts to normal categories, you can easily manage them all, if you are using custom taxonomies (custom categories/not normal ones), then things get tricky, as the theme isn’t able to know about those. And as custom taxonomies take things a step further, it is tricky to incorporate them without bloating the theme with code that only a few users will benefit from!
Regarding bbPress widget, ah you are correct, that is a missing translation! I have fixed it and will be included in v3.3 update, but if you need it sooner, go on the support system and open a ticket, i can share the patched file: http://support.cubellthemes.com
I hope this helps!
Cubell
Ah ok makes sense – would somehow just have hoped for the bepro_listings to be in that dropdown of options – but I see your point.
And with the coming 50% I can do this custom anyhow (though a bit tricky to hit the beautiful css you got for the modules, but should be possible with some more tweaking in my end). Thanks a lot for the time to reply on this.
And superb with the translations – I can wait for the v3.3 Could you reveal which file for me to look in to make the change manually to the file for (I did try search through all files and didn’t find it).
If you collect language files in different languages, I can provide the danish translation if needed.
And again, thanks for all your work – it’s really solid, beautiful and just works great
Oh and regarding missing translations – there is also some in the profile tabs for buddypress profiles – I use the newest buddypress translation file and they are not changing, so suspect it might be located in your translation? It’s tabs like “Activity” “Notifications” and such – Iv changed mine in the code earlier and kinda forgot which now, but think it’s close to all tabs that isnt supported by language file.
Would make theme updates even easier if those are also supported
Thanks again
No problem, happy to help
The bbpress widget is inside the cubell themes functionality plugin files, there is a widgets folder there with it. And regarding any other translations, if you can open a ticket in the support system and include urls/images pointing out the ones missing, I can fix them. There shouldn’t be any need to translate them, as the plugins (bbPress/BuddyPress) should be translating them themselves.
Cubell
You bet – but might first be when I update next time to ensure I get the correct ones before reporting to you, but I will be sure to post in the support system next time
No problemo, sounds good
Hi. Is there a way to use ad code in the background takeover? Every time I add it to the body and css it bumps everything down.
Hi Boerrie,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
How are you adding the background ad? Did you follow the instructions from the documentation?
Cubell
Hi. I need to add a js code advert not an image. I usually drop the code into the header php and a bit of custom css into the themes custom block. When I do it with this theme it bumps down all the content to below the background image.
Hi. I want to add a code advert from adbutler or DFP so I can schedule takeovers and track impressions and clicks. On my other sites I will ad the code block into the header and then a lines of custom css into the theme.
Hey again,
Ah I see, the Valenti background ad system was created for images + links, not special DFP codes, because DFP’s have their own code and way of implementation. It sounds like a CSS issue, as the DFP should be positioned absolute/fixed, so the site content would appear on top of it, if you share your URL I can take a quick look and see if I can help, but if not, you would need to hire a developer to help you out with it, and I’d recommend looking for one on http://studio.envato.com which is run by the same people who run Themeforest.
Cubell
It’s all good. I did the following for anybody else interested:
in header.php replace
<body <?php body_class(); echo $cb_bg_to_img; ?>>
<?php echo $cb_bg_ad; ?>
with
<body <?php body_class() ?>>
<div id="bgt">
<ad code XXXX>
</div>
basically just removed the echos, and then added the following to custom css
#bgt {
position:fixed;
width:100%;
height:auto;
margin-left:0%;
margin-top:10px;
}
@media only screen and (max-device-width: 1079px){
#bgt {
display:none !important
}
}
Ah nice one, thanks very much for sharing, it might help someone in the future
Would you please consider adding “Post types” to the Post selection in the Drag & Drop builder to each module. Along side with the current “by category”, “by tags”, “by postname”.
We have posts in different post types and they are not accessiable with the current options.
And another request is to make a 50% module for shortcode. Atm. there is only a 100% option.
Thanks for an awesome theme
Hi Wzarlon,
The modules in the pagebuilder are compatible with custom posts types. You need to tell the theme about them via the Theme Options. Also, can you please login into the account that purchased the theme when asking post-sale questions. Thank you!
Cubell
Well my user is Goatti1 and I for sure purchased it – twice even I will login on that from my office pc tomorrow.. And ok, I will try check the theme options – wonder why I missed that if it is there.
Thanks for that! I’m sorry for asking, it’s just that I need to make sure I spend my time helping confirmed buyers
Some pre-purchase questions: 1. The featured posts that show in the mega menu, can they be selected manually? 2. Can we handpick posts to show up in post grids on main page? 3. Can we handpick posts for the top breaking bar?
That’s all that comes to mind for now. Anyway, great theme.
Hey AFQ,
Thanks for the interest in Valenti.
1- Yes, inside posts there is a an option to feature the post in the megamenu, if no posts are featured, it will revert to showing random posts in the megamenu.
2- If you build the homepage with the Valenti pagebuilder you will find each module you add has an option to select what posts to show, so you can select posts from “category / tag / specific post”. I’d recommend using tags option for modules to feature posts, that way you add a tag to your posts, for example, a tag called “feature”, and then you set the module to only show posts with that tag.
3- The breaking news only shows the latest posts, and you can only filter it to show posts from specific category/ies.
Hope this helps.
Cubell
Hi, real nice theme you have here. Going through the comments it looks like your features aren’t integrated to Visual Composer, so you can only use VC or the theme’s page builder. I can understand not integrating VC direcly. But how about compatibility with good ol’ Wordpress’s visual editor via shortcodes? Wouldn’t doing that support VC by default (when using a text block)? I’d really like to get the theme because it look amazing, but not being able to use VC AND the theme’s modules at the same time is simply too limiting.
Hey Archaga,
Thanks for the kind words and interest in Valenti.
The theme does not use/need any plugins like Visual Composer, however, they do work fine, I’ve seen a couple of users use Visual Composer with no problems.
Where do you want to use VC exactly? If you create a homepage with Visual Composer and the Valenti Homepage builder, the Visual Composer will be outputted first, and the Valenti builder modules after, you can’t combine the two though.
Hope this info is useful!
Cubell
Hi, I’ve set up a homepage using The Homepage Builder. In Section B, I am using Module E, tho show the latest 5 posts. How can I get it to “load more” posts at the user’s interaction? or at least show pagination?
Hi Dmelgoza,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
WordPress only allows one pagination per page, and as such, modules can’t have pagination. I am looking into adding ajax pagination (similar to load more button), but until I am able to do it, I can’t promise it will be done. For pagination on the homepage, you have to use the latest posts style (WordPress default).

Hi Cubell,
I was wondering if this website used their own css to get the title on the featured image or is that an option?
http://www.stancenation.com/2014/11/25/old-school-perfection-takanobus-toyota-sprinter-trueno/Hey there,
Yes, they added custom CSS code to the theme options to change that. To get you started, try copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:
#cb-full-width-featured .cb-entry-header .cb-title-fi { background: transparent; padding: 0px 20px 10px; }
That will make the background of the titles in the full-width featured image style transparent.
Hope this helps.
Cubell
Cubell,
Is there a way to remove all page titles? I have looked online at CSS edits but found no luck (could be doing it wrong), and plug-ins don’t seem to work. Is there a way to remove them all?
Kane
Also, I wish to have the home page as a picture that takes up the full screen, with some links to pages. (Like http://inbedwithmaradona.com/). Is there a way to do this, or any plug-ins that work? I’ve searched for splash and landing pages, but with no luck.
Hey Kane,
The only way to hide all page titles with CSS is to copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:
.page .cb-cat-header { display: none;}
Should do the trick.
And to create a landing page like that, you will definitely need to find a plugin that allows you to do that, or to hire a developer to help you out with it (he/she can create that for you by building a page template), and I’d recommend looking for one on http://studio.envato.com which is run by the same people who run Themeforest.

Cubell hello again,
I seem to be getting logged out of Wordpress when I click on ‘Visit Site’ within my Wordpress Dashboard. I do get to go to my Site but then I must log back into Wordpress. The only thing I have done is install Disqus but I disabled it and I still have this problem.
Update: Oh, I had logged out as a user on the actual frontend of site. Is that correct I must be logged in on the frontend as a user? I think I am not getting something but anyway it seems ok now.
Thanks
Marina
Hi again
Glad it’s okay now, but I’m really certain what was going on, all I can say is that the theme wouldn’t be able to log you out/in – it is all WordPress when it comes to that.
Cubell
How do I center Widgets in the footer?
Everything is automatically set to the left.
THANKS!
Not just the footer, but in any of the widget menus really.. Thanks
Hi Brocktheboss,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
You can try by copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:.cb-footer-widget, .cb-sidebar-widget { text-align: center; }
Hope this helps
Cubell
Hello,
I just looked through the documentation but couldn’t find the answer. How do I create a page with “only grids”?
Do I have to add module blocks one after another? If that is the way, is it possible to create a page such as the “only grids” for one tag/category without repeating the posts?
Hey Xlmajor,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
Yes, that is how you would do that, you would add multiple grid modules one after another. You would then use the “offset” option in each module to offset the posts in each module so you don’t have any repeated posts.
You could create a new page for a tag/category, build up the modules as you wish, and then using https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-301-redirects/ plugin, you would redirect the default category/tag url to that page, so whenever a user clicks to go on that category, it will automatically/seamlessly transfer the user to the page you created.
I hope this helps.
Cubell
Hi there,
So I am trying to get the hover colors to work and have read a few of the comments in this section, not sure if I’ve hit a bug or if I am doing something wrong.
I have given each of my menu headers a color as per the documentation and it works. However, there are some posts that fall under two different categories.
Example: A post in the category MUSIC should be blue which is working properly, however if I add another category like FEATURED for example it removes the coloring. This makes sense however I have another category called CULTURE which is red and also has FEATURED as another category attached and it retains the red hover. Is this CSS code that I need or is it a bug?
Thanks!
I believe I’ve narrowed it down, categories are listed in alphabetical order when you assign posts to them, as FEATURED comes before MUSIC it is taking the global styling of the first category applied to the post. I’m not sure how to resolve this. Any insight?
Hey ChrisBlackWater,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
It would be useful to see the url (you can submit it privately via the support system: http://support.cubellthemes.com ) although if it is what I think it is, there isn’t really a way to “fix” that, as WordPress sends the theme the relevant color to show, and if a post has multiple categories, it sends the first one alphabetically (as it can only show one color, this is what WordPress does). What you can do though is to not use a category for featuring posts, instead you should use a tag for that. In the pagebuilder, all modules have the option to use a “by tags” filter, which means you can give posts a “feature” tag, and then show them in the modules you want.
I hope this helps!
Cubell
Hi, I have a very important question, that keeps me from buying. Is it possible to use the background as ad-space, where you can put ad-tags from Google adsense or Google dfp?
Mario
Hey Mario,
Thanks for the interest in Valenti
The Background Takeover Ad system that was created for Valenti works by uploading/setting a background image and entering a URL to click to, there isn’t a way to integrate ad code with an iframe (I’m guessing that is how Google AdSense/DFP would do it for a background ad). Therefore for something like that you’d need to hire a developer to help you integrate a DFP background ad.
Hope this info is useful.
Cubell
Hi pre-purchase question
I have my own personal sharing addon and i would display it in the same place like yours do you think its easy to do this?
https://hostr.co/VZ85hePcUBxAThank You
Hey RealWondah,
Thanks for your interest (And subsequent purchase)
In case you haven’t tested the theme yet, you can disable Valenti’s sharing block in the theme options and install your own.
All the best,
Cubell
Hi,
The comment form on my posts are not appearing, I have made comment on in the theme options but still it’s not showing. Currently I have installed Disqus, that is also not showing up.
Please help
Hey Dhiraj123,
Thanks for choosing Valenti. Do you have the comments enable in the Theme Options -> Posts? If so, edit the post you can’t see comment form on, and then click on the “screen options” button on the top right corner of the screen, and tick the “discussion” checkbox, now scroll down and make sure the post allows comments (this is a WordPress setting).
Cubell
Hi, i have a problem with post published. i published a post and it didn’t appear neither in the category neither in the grid above homepage’s “Latest Posts” content. I check the published date and it is ok. Thanks for your help
Hi Gabeca,
Thanks for choosing Valenti.
Can you please open a ticket up in http://support.cubellthemes.com and include the URL of the post, to take a look at it all.
Cubell
Hello Cubell,
Can you tell me if it’s possible to remove (and if yes how) the ‘Website’ box in the leave a reply comment section?
And can you recommend a form builder plugin that works well with Valenti, I only require a simple contact us form.
Thanks and great job with the Theme and support.
Hey Marina,
Hope you’re well
1- All you need to do is install this free plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/remove-comment-websiteurl-box/
As the theme is written properly, plugins like that will work with no problems
2- For a contact form, I’d recommend installing Contact Form 7. It’s really well developed and the theme adds some styling for it (the theme demo uses it too).
Hope this helps.
Cubell
I am well thanks and hope you are too!
Thank you Cubell – of course Contact Form 7 silly me
I am well too thanks and you’re welcome
Hi!
First of all great theme!
I would like to see a complete blank page template added to the next version. (full-width, without the title section) So i can build my complete page with visual composer.
Would love to hear from you.
And thanks for the great theme!
Hey Rients,
That is a good suggestion, I will definitely add a page template for that, but to be certain, you want a page template that shows the header/footer/menu/etc, but the page content area is literally blank (no title/featured image)?
Cubell
Exactly.
It would also be great to have that same blank page option for a post (in this case the feauterd image should work on the overview/category pages)
I’ve used other themes like enfold where you can turn off header/footer/menu/breadcrumbs per page/post. Would be awesome to implement that in the Valenti theme to.
Okay, I will see what I can do, thanks for the suggestions
