Hi
I am highly interested in that theme and would love to hear your feedback about the following prior buying:
1. I ran some validation checks (w3c unicorn, css and more) resulting in a lot of errors
2. Are you willing to share the output of https://wordpress.org/plugins/theme-check? It’s the same tool used for automated testing of new themes submitted to the WordPress Themes Directory. You can also use http://themecheck.org which is pretty much the same.
Thanks for taking the time.
Hi,
Theme won’t be approved for sale here if it won’t pass the Theme Checker test, so there are no errors in the theme checker output. Theme is also HTML5 valid.
Have few questions:
1) Do you theme has inbuilt rich tag snippet code (Schema) HTML markups embedded?
2) What’s the Average loading time and stats on gtmetrix?
3) Do you have inbuilt css, js and HTML minifier?
1) Theme have build in Visual Composer with over 60 content elements which you can use to build your layouts.
2) On my server is about 1s for page load and about 4s then for the resources (images, css, js) for the theme home page.
3) No, you’ll need to use some external plugin. Anyway most of js files are already minified.
Hi
Is it possible to show a video within the home page slider (Home Style 1)
Thanks
Hi,
No – build in slider supports only images.
Do you plan to support videos in the future?
Theme supports for example Revolution and Layer sliders, so you can use them to make slider with video. I’m not planning to add video support to default slider.
hi the wp bakery visual composer is not working in post pages,
it is only working with Add New Pages
never mind got it and fixed, i need to set it settings
Yes, that’s correct. Thank you for the info.
Adds infinite scrolling support to the front-end blog post view and for the single post pages for themes ?
It’s a good idea. I’ve added this to my todo list and will try to include with one of the next updates.
- Remove some items from the post page like the category, number of views, author, etc… I guess this must be done with the visual composer, but I can’t see how
- Replace the standard share buttons of the theme with the AddToAny plugin, any tip on that
- Add a rating plugin
I found this operations quite easy to do with any other theme, but with this one html code is incredible mixed up with the php code. There’s no clear separation between php and html as there is with standard wordpress themes
Thanks for your time

I have three questions, please. Pressroom – News and Magazine WordPress Theme
Are you install ? (Is it free or paid)
In the theme is what you can display the record button or activate to display it on the first page? I wish people registers before reading the article.
In the theme, is what may make some private items for subscribers?
Thank you.
I can install it for you (paid) but you can find instruction in documentation how to do that, so you should be able to do that on your own.
In WordPress you can set by default some post as private and make access for it after providing password. If the default WordPress features won’t be enough for you, you can extend them with some of available plugins.
The high contrast switch icon does not works with caching (which makes static html files) like super cache or wp rocket.
This switch needs the cookies support. So please make sure that those plugins doesn’t block/cache cookies in some way. When switching to high contrast mode, the new css file is included, so your cache plugin needs to take this into account. In case you need more help, please use our Support Forum to get it.
And the scrolling posts in the top sidebar header shows wrong time… it shows 3 months ago for all.
You can find a solution for that issue here: http://support.quanticalabs.com/forum/topic/13541/wrong-date-and-time-on-home-page-ticker/#post-65906
Hi. Deciding which template is getting more and more difficult, as most of them are really good. Congratulations to the designers!
My question: I need to add an image gallery page for the brands we expect to have on display (around 100). They will have no text, just the image (=their logo) linked to their website or social account (just 1 link). Is it possible with your template? And if so, a dynamic filter by category (food, art, fashion) is available or is there a way to have it?
And one more question: can I place a banner on top, moving the logo to the left?
best regards, Alberto
Hi,
Template doesn’t have own system for filtering gallery images, so you will need to use a plugin for that. About banner on top, then yes – it’s possible, there is a header layout available which allow to set it in that way: http://support.quanticalabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/pressroom_ad_space.png
Ok. Thanks!
You’re welcome!
Hi
I just want to double check before I purchase that I can import all posts and categories etc from my original Wordpress site into this new theme and apply the necessary post and category layout I decide to use?
Thanks
Hi,
Yes, Pressroom is using core WordPress functions to manage posts and categories, so you shouldn’t have any issues with migrating your existing site.
OK great, I am purchasing now
Thank you for the purchase! In case you’ll need any help, please use our Support Forum to get it.
Hello, sorry, but I can’t understand about Visual Composer. Is it included and all costs 58$? Or I can buy them all for 58+28=$86? And more. Can I use that template for my second site, or I have to buy extra one? Thanks!
Hi. Yes, it’s included. You don’t need separate license.
To be clear: for $58 you’ll get theme and Visual Composer, you don’t need to buy VC separately. You can use theme only for one site/domain, if you would like to use it on multidomains, you need to purchase a license for each or 1 extended license.
Hi,
Can the Visual Composer be used for posts and custom posts?
Hi,
Yes, you can enable Visual Composer for post and custom posts.
Why is Uber Menu not included in the package? :/
UberMenu isn’t available under extended license, so even if we would like to – we can’t include it unfortunately. More info here.
So how will I make the mega menu? I don’t want to buy another plugin for that!
And I’m pretty disappointed with the theme options. There are no options to show / hide things like author name, comments counts, views count on single post.
I was hoping for much customizability. Frankly, you told it’s very much customizable. If not, I might need a refund. Sorry.
Pressroom supports UberMenu and we’ve used it in the live preview to show that. If you would like to have it in the same form you should buy this plugin. You can also try to integrate some other solution on your own. As I’ve said before we would love to include the UberMenu, unfortunately its author doesn’t allow to do that.
You can change those options in ‘Post’ component settings: http://support.quanticalabs.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/pressroom_post_component_options.png You should have ‘Single Post Template’ page if you’ve imported dummy content. For more help about that, please visit our Support Forum.
So, any other way to make megamenu?
And should I not publish “posts”? I have to publish “pages” with “single post template”?
If yes, how will I turn these pages into posts if I ever change the theme?
Ok after importing demo content, I understood everything.
I am using disqus, is there no styling for disqus?
Of course that you’re publishing posts and pages as with any other theme in standard WordPress way. The ‘Single Post Template’ is to help you set up the post layout.
The Ubermenu has been impemented and tested, we didn’t try other megamenu plugins.
No, theme doesn’t include custom styles for disqus.
Please post all your next questions on our Support Forum. You should also find some answers there. Thank you!
So, in the next update, can I please get sticky sidebar and disqus styling?
Yes – sticky sidebar is ready and I’ll add it tomorrow. I’m adding also disqus styling to my todo list but can’t give you right now the date when I’ll be able to add it with an update.
Ok thanks.
And even when I’m using disqus plugin, the default wordpress comment system is still available.
Just disable them by removing ‘Comments’ component from ‘Single Post Template’ or edit settings in this ‘Comments’ component.
Hi there,
Nice theme. Just bought it and set up.
I encounter 3 problems which i need help to resolve:
1) my site is based on youtube videos so i am using the default video capture as featured image. I have tried to disable show featured image in single post template but even when “no” is selected than the featured image still appears. I want to change the default single post template. and is it possible to build more that one post template and choose between templates according to post type?
2) styling for tabs box header is missing and it only shows blue plain font text
3) adding media to post from youtube makes is quite small and not in the width of the post column. is it possible to change the default?
Thanks!

Hi
Is it possible to use any slider I wish but it still calls in posts and featured posts?
If not is it possible for the slider here to be full width – http://quanticalabs.com/wp_themes/pressroom/home-style-6/
Many Thanks
Hi,
If your slider will support that then yes – it depends on the slider which you would like to use. Small slider on home style 6 can be full width but you’ll need to change image size for it.
Hey! How big change I can make??? I will need much less categories (like a lifestyle/sports…), less secions in menu etc. Just send me an e-mail to :8robo8@gmail.com I will have some more questions. Thanks! Robert
Hi,
Theme is fully customizable so you can build it in another way, than in live preview.
Hi, very nice theme! I have some questions before buying:
1) Can you speed the effect of highlight the images (when you hover) – now it takes about 1 second and I guess it makes the page seems slower and laggy 2) Is it possible to make the background-image non-static but repeatable – when it’s static I guess the page scroll slower and also more laggy 3) I can’t find the list of shortcodes for the post content. Are there any? I think it’s very important to make the posts look more attractive (for example huge first letter, quotes etc.) 4) Is this template Adds ready? I don’t mean only the top banner but is it adapted to various forms of adds? 5) Is it SEO optimised?
I’m so sorry for my bad english 
Again great template and Happy Easter!
Hi, thank you!
1) Yes, you can change that. Right now it’s set to 0.4s.
2) Yes, you can do that as well.
3) All shortcodes are available to insert via Visual Composer. If you’ll need some element and you won’t be able to find it, please let me know and I’ll help you.
4) Yes, you can have ads in any place on the page.
5) Yes, it has been built according to SEO standards.
Happy Easter to you too!
Thanks for the reply!
1. But could you make a subpage demo with all the shortcodes that you can use in a post? Other templates offer that in demo and it’s a good idea to see if the template suit our needs
2. Can you easly change for example colors of just one panel in homepage? I mean whole frame of some panel or just label to make a unique panel for example for some special event news
3. I must say that when I launched it on my mobile (Android, dual core, 1GB RAM, 800×480 px.) unfortunately it was laggy on homepage… Can you work a little bit more on optimization both for mobile and desktop to make it more snappy?
Thank you again, have a nice day.
1. You can see most of the available components on different pages in the live preview. I’ll consider to add some shortcodes page in the future.
2. You can customize categories colors, you can also set custom background color for each column individually.
3. In the live preview I don’t use for example any minify plugins, on you target site you can use them to improve page load speed.
Hi, smart sticky sidebar has been implemented?
Hi,
Not yet, I’ll add the info in updates section here when it will be available.
Okay, I’m waiting.
Great theme, quick question.. Can I translate this into Japanese? Is there documentation supporting this too?
Thank you! Yes, language files (po, mo) are included, so you can make translation. You can do it on your own or use some translation plugin like WPML, qTranslate or other.
Nice theme – prior digging deeper into it:
1. You mention each and every element was testing for being responsive. Which devices / OS Versions was tested? 2. Does this template provide child theme support? (so I can modify stuff there without risking issues on update) 3. Is there language support? (I plan to run my blog in at least two languages) 4. Is there localization support and what plugins do you recommend / has been testet?
Thank you!
1. Yes it’s responsive and has been tested on popular devices. We don’t have any issue reports about responsive mode. If you’ll find some, please let me know.
2. Yes, it has child theme support.
3. Yes, po and mo language files are included.
4. Yes, it’s. I recomment to use WPML for example but you can use other plugins as well.
