I’m trying to install metabox however I get the following: Installing Plugin: Metabox Downloading installation package from /home/myvote/public_html/wp-content/themes/Election-v1.30/election-child-theme/framework/tgm-plugin-activation/plugins/swm-metabox.zip…
Download failed. A valid URL was not provided.
TGMPA v2.6.1 Return to Required Plugins Installer
I believe I solved this by copying the framework folder to the child theme. The framework folder was not there.

Nino WA: 1-714-717-0811 Nino@3dex.comHello @Nino1844,
Thank you for contacting us.
We don’t do paid custom work. Main Menu and Corner links are simple, and you can do it from admin. I am not getting about side links. If you want to display side links as a drop-down menu, it doesn’t require any custom work.
Thank you.
Thanks you for your response. Do you know someone who is good with your theme, and its abortable to customize for me. This is for Iran democracy and freedom.
I suggest you add a post in the Envato forum to find a good developer for theme customization ( https://forums.envato.com/ ) because, in the support forum, buyers don’t share other details or offer for theme customization.
Slider revolution will not activate. I took it from the plugin folder in the main theme zip. It is saying purchase code is invalid.
Hi mhstewart3,
Slider Revolution premium plugin is included in the theme package free of cost, so you do not need to activate the license for this plugin however you will be able to use all basic features of the plugin without any issues. So please ignore the notice of license activation as you have the rights to use it without license activation because this plugin is bundled in the theme itself.Reference articles:

Thank you.

Hello Nihakshi,
I have mailed you, please check.
Thank you.
The error 404 page does not go to a page that is on my website.
What is the website URL that would go into that URL box?
voteforcitycouncilman.com
Hello @christinadanderson,
The dropdown menu has a sample 404-page link. You don’t need to display it on the dropdown. It will automatically display, for example
http://www.voteforcitycouncilman.com/loremipsum/Thank you.
I followed the directions and have everything installed. How come I if I make any changes to the tabs on the top it messed up the menu and it doesn’t display right.
Also this page http://www.voteforcitycouncilman.com/loremipsum/ the links to go your website sample and not to my website. How do I change that?
Hello @christinadanderson,
You can edit 404 page content from Admin > Customizer > Error 404

Hello, what plugin are we suppose to be using to edit content?
Hello @FMAB1,
We didn’t add drag and drop visual editor compatibility with the theme. You can use shortcode generator to add content and editor text mode to edit content.
Thank you.
So far, the easiest theme I have used. I added the testimonials as a widget to the site https://sheriffdaleschmidt.com It seems to adjust for the amount of text to a point (255 chars?), then it cuts off. What file do I adjust (or what do I change in the testimonial part) to allow it to show the entire testimonial.
I changed the widget to blank (supposed to show all) and it didn’t show it all, changed it to 500 and it showed more of the testimonial. Changed it to 700 and nothing changed. Seems like 500 is the limit. I moved the long one to the excerpt section and it seems to work.
Hello @Ragspur,
We used get_the_excerpt() function to display testimonials. If the excerpt section is blank, it will use content text. You can increase the default summary text limit. Add the below code in the child theme’s functions.php file.
if( ! function_exists( 'swm_excerpt_length' ) ) {
function swm_excerpt_length( $length ) {
return 2000;
}
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'swm_excerpt_length', 999 );
}
Thank you.
I have installed this theme on my site ragspur.com but the favicons are not showing up. There is no console error saying they aren’t loaded, and inspection of the code just shows commas (, , , , ).
Can you help?
Hello @Ragspur,
You can add favicon from Admin > Customizer > Site Identity > Site Icon
If you already uploaded a favicon image, please send your website admin login details from our profile page form ( https://themeforest.net/user/softwebmedia ) to debug the issues.
Thank you.
Sorry, I didn’t mean favicon, I meant the font awesome for the menu showing current menu. I just disabled that feature and it seems to work.
Thank you for your reply.
Icon names URL is changed. You can refer to it from this link: https://fontawesome.com/v4/icons/

Hi,
I have a problem with the Election template:
1) not working properly – tabs_horizontal (even on the home page www.pozarowo.pl) 2) testimonials in widget in footer is not loading properly.
Can I ask for help in resolving the problems?
Best regards, Rafal
Hello @Rafal,
We fixed both issues in the latest version. Please update the “Election” theme (1.25) and “Poli Shortcodes” (1.08) plugin to fix it.
Documentation to update ThemeForest theme with bundle plugins: https://bizixdocs.premiumthemes.in/category/updating-the-theme/
Thank you.
Hi,
thank you for the quick reply.
After updating the “Election” theme to version 1.25 and plugin “Poli Shortcodes” to version 1.08:
- the problem with tabs_horizontal has resolved, - there was a problem with testimonials (in the footer on the home page), - there was a problem with swm_image_slider animation_type – the gallery stopped displaying.
Additionally, after updating Slider Revolution plugin to version 5.4.8.1, warnings appear:
Warning: “continue” targeting switch is equivalent to “break”. Did you mean to use “continue 2”? in /wp-content/plugins/revslider/includes/operations.class.php on line 2858

Hi,
Recently we had an issue with our website using this theme. Apparently, our hosting company updated their PHP versions and it seems this theme was not supporting the new PHP version. Any advise on this please? Currently we are running a lower version of PHP just so that the site could run.

Hello @johnpantilanan,
Please disable Stylish Links plugin and check the theme with updated PHP version.
Thank yo.
I have noticed that under plugins – it always lists the included Slider Revolution as “A new version of Slider Revolution is available” and there is a link to activate said plugin for premium benefits (live updates.)
I was under the impression that it would auto update per purchasing the template. If not – do we need to create an account with Slider revolution? PLease advise.
Hello @champcreative,
You don’t need to purchase slider revolution because theme has plugin’s bundle version.
Please download main zip file which has “Plugins” folder to get slider revolution file. Please take backup of current sliders (export slider zip file) and then install slider revolution version 6+.
Thank you.
I have installed the politics theme – both child and full, with full currently active. When I go to edit pages I am seeing swm shortcode. Am I missing a plugin that will allow me to edit this code? What plugin should I have installed?
Hello @acamp68,
Drag and drop Page builder is not included with the theme. You can use shortcodes generator to add elements.( Plus icon on Editor toolbar )
