Why the slider image (big one at the beginning of page) is only possible on the portfolio page? How to add it to default or page builder?

Thanks!

Thanks. It works, but the separator under the title is still visible :( Is it possible to remove it only from the titles?

To remove the separator too, use this snippet:

.separator {
     display: none;
}

As simple as that! :)

It’s clever idea, but then when I add manually separator between some text, it will not be visible… ?

Is it possible to deactivate paralax effects? Especially on the portfolio.work page?

You can reduce it’s amount on zero, from Appearance > Customize > Sizes and Spacings > Archive Grid > Parallax Scrolling Rage.

Hi,

First of all, your theme is beautiful, really !

I would need to change the color of the font on portfolio and posts. I would need also to remove the black lines around the posts. Perhaps changing the color of the border ? I can’t find where I can do that. Could you help me ? Many thanks

Hello! I’m glad to hear you like our theme!

1. You can change the color of the font on portfolio and post using this custom CSS snippet:

body {
     color: #950438;
}

2. In order to remove the black lines around the posts, use this one:

.site-content--journal .pile-item-wrap {
       border: none;
}
If you want to change the border color, try this one:
.site-content--journal .pile-item-wrap {
     border: 3px solid #EF17EF;
}

You just need to insert the custom CSS codes in Theme Options > Custom Codes > Custom CSS field.

If you need help on other issues, feel free to use our HelpDesk by opening a ticket.

All the best,
Alin

Many thanks ! For your information, the “border : none” doesn’t work but with the color, everything is ok. All the best :)

:) Thanks for letting me know that! Cheers!

I like your theme very much, but in my opinion there are too less demo pages and content which we could use. Are you going to add new extra pages and features?

Thanks for your feedback! Are you looking for something specifically?

For example: more demo pages with nice elements such as “about us”, “services”, different styles of contact pages, shortcodes, showing some nice elements etc. Do yuo know what I mean? I know that it’s possible to create these things by my own, but it’s more difficult to do something from scratch, than see and use some elements from demo pages.

Thanks for your feedback, I’ll take it as a recommendation and I will talk with the team about what you suggested.

Hello, I’m having a major issue with the page builder after updating the theme and wordpress to the latest versions. Page builder buttons are now misaligned and cannot be clicked after creating one element. I submitted a ticket #15698. I need to get this resolved asap due to deadline. Thanks!

Hey Tice!

I’ve just replied to your ticket. We’ll try to fix this ASAP.

Thanks,
Alin

Just a quick question. When trying to update the new version through Wordpress I get this message:

Installing the theme… Destination folder already exists. Theme install failed.

Should I first delete the theme and install the new version or just go through FTP?

Thank you!

Can you please try the manual installation this time? Here you can see some indications.

thnx! t… Guess I always expect something horrible to happen when updating manually but that worked just fine.

:) I’m glad to hear it worked! Cheers!

Hi!

I’m very interested in buying in the theme, but I have two questions: - If I understand the documentation correctly, the header (where you have work, journal, style guide etc in your demo) can be set to be always visible. Is that correct? What happens to fullscreen pages like the landing page or projects in this case? Will they be cut of by the header or will they shift down? - Can I change the spacing between projects on the start page and turn of the parallax effect?

Thanks!

Felix

It will overlaps a little bit, as you already noticed.

Hm I guess that’s a showstopper for us then. Because the top element in our projects will always be a video, and we can’t let the header overlap that…

Using some custom CSS you can make the menu header background transparent, but in this situation I think it would be recommended to avoid the sticky menu.

Great theme! I have two questions before purchasing.

Is it possible to easily remove the main full screen hero from each project as well as from the main page of the portfolio so it is just the masonry tiles? Also while the parallax is perfectly done is this easily disabled?

Cheers, C

Hey Chris, thanks for your interest in our theme!

1.You can simply avoid uploading a hero image and then the project will look like this.

2.The parallax effect is only available on top Hero area and for archive blocks. In Appearance – Customizer – Archive Grid there is a Parallax Scrolling Range option that you can use to decrease the parallax amount.

I hope I’ve been helpful! :)

Have a nice Weekend,
Alin

Im sorry, I took a look at the logo source you pointed out, but I have no clue what I need to do or where i need to go so that it points to my own svg file?

Please help. Thanks

I’m not so sure what you are trying to do. Can you please open a ticket on our HelpDesk and provide some more details?

Thanks,
Alin

Hello,

I have few issues with my pictures since few weeks (it didn’t happen when I purchased the theme). When I import them (jpg or png 1920×1080px / Rvb 72dpi for example) on my website the definition seems blurish/pixelated, not looking the same as the originals (I export them from photoshop and they are really sharp/neat). The width on my website is set to 1800px. Do you know where is the problem ? Please help !

Thanks you !!

I find out the problem, the pics are automatically compressed to a new format with a 1200px width (when I try to save a pic the name is “name-1200×768.jpg”, but not with the old pics which are not pixelated). How can I put this back to normal ? Thank you

Hello!

Could you please use our HelpDesk and open a ticket, in order to investigate the situation?

Hello, I want to remove the “separator” behind the title, how can I do that in the html?

Thanks

Hello!

First of all I need to apologise for my late response, I was off the job a week due the Easter Holiday.

In order to remove the separator line, you may try using a custom css snippet:

.hero .separator {
     display: none;
}

Insert the code in Theme Options > Custom Codes > Custom Css field and let me know if it works.

Thanks,
Alin

Hello, unfortunately, it doesnt work.

Can you please open a ticket on our HelpDesk and provide access so I can see why it doesn’t work?

Thanks, Alin

Any update soon? :)

Hello!

Sorry for the delayed response. I hope my answers are not too late for you.

1. In order to provide the best solution for your situation, I’d need to see your website, so I encourage you to use our HelpDesk and open a private ticket.

2. Thanks for your recommendations, some of them might be appealing. Also, you may know that we already have a section where our customers can make feature requests. I recommend you to access this link and make your own feature requests. If more customers will consider those suggestions being important, we’ll try to implement them within the future updates.

Hi guys, check out our website using PILE theme ;)

http://www.trezentos.pt/

Good one, thanks for sharing! :)

Another question regarding the contact page. Would it be possible to change the map marker into a simple pin? I don´t need the big square with a logo in it and I happen to have a .png file of a pin that I could use.

Thnx again!

Yes, you can use any graphic element instead of the map pin.

To do that, make sure you selected “Map Coordinates and Display” from Screen Options. Then you’ll get the option which allows you to customize the map pin.

Alin

As simple as that…going to try this. Thanks as always!

Anytime! :)

Hi. There is a problem with ‘remove from cart’ with new woocommerce and wordpress.Romove don’t work. In your demo too http://pixelgrade.com/demos/themes/?product=pile Unfortunately in my site too.

Hi!

The bug has been already fixed and will be included in the next update.

Thanks for understanding, Alin

THX :)

Hi!

Is there an easy way to change the font style for the contact form7. I would like it to be Oswald Norm 400 to match the form with the rest of the site.

Thanks!

You can try this custom css snippet:

div.wpcf7 {
font-family: "Oswald Norm 400";
}

Alin

Thanx Alin! Exactly what I was looking for!!

Glad to hear that! :)

Hi, I found your answer about SVG logo….

I find the branding.php but it not talks about pile-log1.svg.What php file must be edited to make it work ? :)

Thanks

Sorry, I found it… just add the SVG as same as a PNG.

I’m glad you sorted it out!

Hi! is it possible to make photos on the work page behave like the photos in the journal? I mean the ability to have them full screen by click and go through all of them like that using arrows on the right and on the left.

Thank you!

Hey and thanks for asking!

Sure you can do that, here you can see an example: http://pixelgrade.com/demos/pile/portfolio/authentic-life/

Is this what you are looking for?

Alin

Exactly! Thanks A LOT!

Anytime! :)
