Hi,
You’re theme is great! But I can’t get the contact form to display any response when the form was submitted, either successfully or any error message. The form is sending and email being received, but I need the response to show. Website: thebayards.com
Please help! Thank you! – Stephanie
The theme doesn’t add any alt tags to the images which you choose for the couple, sponsors etc.? Even if they have been set in the Wordpress media library.
Right, I think the most rapid way to add your desired alt tags is using a seo plugin, for example SEO Friendly Images.
Cheers, Erik
Hello,
I have constantly been emailing about support and so has Themeforest and neither of us have heard back for months.
Have you been receiving these?
Hello,
Sorry for the delayed reply. Let me know your questions and I’m going to do my best to help.
Cheers, Hamza
Hello,
So a couple of things.
1. When viewing on a mobile the colour overlay on the background images (with an opacity) doesn’t work. 2. The main homepage image doesn’t load correctly on mobile. 3. The main buttons still show red (after you have clicked on them and the next page is loading), I can’t find which part of the css I need to overwrite?
Can I get some help with the above please? I have contacted WordPress and have been advised I’m still entitled to support as these questions, when raised, have not been answered for over 2 months?
Hello,
Sorry for the late reply, we have been extremely busy nowdays.
A theme update was published recently, please download update your site to the latest release, what contains a couple of theme bug fixes. To catch up with your questions:
1.) This has been fixed in the update, thanks for the notice. 2.) Can you explain this? On the demo site it looks ok for me. 3.) To change the :focus state of the main buttons, add this to your css:.btn-primary:focus, .btn-primary.focus { background-color: #yourColor; }
Hope this helps. Cheers, Erik
Thanks for your reply.
For the outstanding question with 2. It’s when you add this to the CSS .home-header { background-attachment: fixed !important; }.
With regards to point 3. That seems to work, but the blog post titles and links are still red?
Dear Eric,
a while agao, I asked: – Is it possbile to make the quotes “auto-rotate”?
Your answer was: Sure, open up your widget-quotes.php file from the ../includes/widgets/ folder and insert this snippet after line 81:
, autoplay: true
I did add it at line 82 (wite notepad ++), however, it still does not auto rotate. Did I miss something there? Thanks.
Hello! Can you send me over your site link and your modified widget-quotes.php file in email ? I need to check after this directly on your site. Cheers, Erik
Hi Eric, thanks for the update. Love the option to have a “read all”-Button included. However, how do I change the language of the button? I searched in the de_DE File with PoEdit, but found nothing. Also I searched all editor files. Nothing. Would really like to have this button in German. Thx.
Nevermind. Found it in the Widget and changed it there.
Great than! Let me know if you need further assistance. Cheers, Erik
When I trying to import demo content, it occur error like Warning: Illegal string offset ‘file’ in C:\Tools\wamp\www\websites\Fabic n Flowers\wp-content\themes\flatlove\includes\functions\theme-setup.php on line 172
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in C:\Tools\wamp\www\websites\Fabic n Flowers\wp-content\themes\flatlove\includes\functions\theme-setup.php on line 173
How can I fix this issue….
WiHello, thanks for your purchase!
Without any information about your website and process, I wouldn’t suggest a specific solution at this point. Despite of this error message, does your front-end looks like as expected on your local host?
Cheers, Erik
No, the frontend is not looking the same as in the demo. As I am not able to import the data file, that i received with the package.
I tried installing the theme multiple number of times with different version of wordpress but the same error is coming. I am using the process as mentioned in documentation file.
Ok, than please send me over your wordpress admin login details in email and i’ll try to import the chosen demo for you. Cheers, Erik
Hi I have sent you an email with the demo details that i have hosted online.
Replied. Cheers, Erik
Hi I am still waiting for the response to my last emails. As per our conversation I have already hosted the web online and mailed you with URL and username, password to access the wordpress admin.
Looking for a prompt reply as it is already more than a week and we are not able to get the web as shown in the template previews.
Replied. Next time please read the theme documentation carefully, as the answer you were seeking for, was already there.
Anyway, I have just done it for you. Thanks for your patience and understanding. Cheers, Erik
Hey there, I submitted a comment through the contact me box. Just wanted to confirm you received it. Thanks and thanks for any help with my inquiries. -Jason
Hi Jason, I just replied to your email. Cheers, Erik
Header image behaving strange,
I did change the header image (with your extra code concerning parallax effect) to the size as it is mentioned in the faq. “Home Header Background 2000×800px “
Now, when I open the page, the image is just fine using Firefox. With Safari (windows) and Microsoft IE (I don’t like it, but a lot of people still use it…) the image is cropped in a way I do not like. Is it possible to set it up, so that it always shows the image on top and only cuts further down?
will email you the link and password. thx.
edit used the wrong format, however, it still cuts (even with 2000×800) from top instead from button.
Just checked your site again upon this comment, and found that the background-position
css attribute of your header background image is set to “center center”, what forces the image to align center both in horizontal and vertical aspects.
This rule works fine usually, but In your case, I would suggest to add the following snippet to your css, to prevent the image from being cutted from it’s upper part:
#header.home-header { background-position: center 50px !important; }
Let me know how it worked out! Cheers, Erik
Works fine. Thanks!
Your welcome! Cheers, Erik
Hi,
Sorry me again, so the issue with the spacing at the bottom is when you have the menu in the footer, if you turn this off the spacing disappears. I’ve On another note, I’ve installed your child theme but the CSS I’ve entered into the style.css file doesn’t seem to be overriding flatlove.css?
Hi, I just replied to your email. Let’s continue there! Cheers, Erik
Hi, I have another question regarding the “blog” section.
is it possible to use it twice? We would like to have one “wedding blog” and one “gift blog” in our wedding homepage. Therefore, It would be really cool, if it would be possible to use categories to filter the two blog sections. (like “show only “wedding” blog entries”)
Furthermore, is there a read all-button? Or can I change the number of blog entries shown on the one-page-layout?
thanks
Yes, you can use the blog widget multiple times.
There’s no built-in feature to filter the blog posts on category base. I can develop it for you, but this would be considered as a customization again. Let me know if you need a quote.
To increase the amount of posts displayed in the homepage blog widget, open your widget-recent-posts.php file from the ”../includes/widgets” folder, and on line 65 modify the posts_per_page
parameter like this:
posts_per_page' => 9,
Let me know how this worked out. Cheers, Erik
At first, it did not. But I changed the wrong file. Now it works.
Would it be possible, to enter some link like a “read all” underneath the last three entries? that would help a lot. Especially, as only 3 entries in a row are allowed.
Sure, open the same file widget-recent-posts.php like before, and insert the following code after line 101:
<div class="row text-center mg-t-lg"> <a href="<?php echo get_permalink( get_option('page_for_posts' ) ); ?>" class="btn btn-primary btn-lg"><?php _e('Read All Posts','flatlove')?></a> </div>
Cheers, Erik
Awesome, works great! Thx.
Your welcome! Cheers, Erik
Hello Erik,
I would like to centre the main menu on top of the page. How can do I do this?
Thank you, Tiago
Hi Tiago, thanks for your purchase! Can you send me over your site link? I need to test the proper css code for your site first. Cheers, Erik
Hi Erik. Thanks for your reply. The url is www.littleislandbigday.com
I am also wondering how to change backgrounds on the different sections.
Additionally, I can’t figure out what is wrong with the map section – just doesn’t seem to work.
Thank you for your assistance!
Cheers, Tiago
To center the menu, add the following snippet to your css:
@media (min-width: 780px) { #menu-flatlove-menu { display: table; float: none !important; margin: 0 auto !important; } }
You can easily recolor the backgrounds of each section via css, for example:
.section-wedding-events { background-color: red; }
Regarding your map, it seems that you need to generate a custom google maps API key to get your map displayed (currently you are having a js error in the console, what prevents your map script from being loaded properly). Please check this article to learn more.
Let me know if you need further assistance! Cheers, Erik
That’s great, Thanks Erik.
I have another question:
How can add a sections? Need a simple one of text, hyperlinks and images, and another with a selection of pages – 3 to be more precise.
Thank you again, Tiago
You can add a default Text Widget (coming with WordPress) to your Homepage Widgets widget area, than you are free to insert any specific html code you need for the new section. Cheers, Erik
Hi Eric,
I have one more question:
is it possible to have the countdown count up? eg. count the days, we are already married? (since Sat. 6/25, btw ) That would be really cool. The count up widget does not feature such an automated count up, if I did see it right?
thanks.
Hello, i’m afraid it’s not possible without custom development. If you need it, please contact me in email with this request, and i’ll think over and give you a quote for this customization. Cheers, Erik
Ah, Ok. In this case, I think we skip the option.
Ok, no problem. Cheers, Erik
Hello. I just purchased your theme and it looks great. I got a few questions though:
1. Is it possible to change the dark-red active-link color? It doesn’t exactly match the blue theme I have.
2. Is it possible to add more people in the “Bride and Grooms” section? Don’t get me wrong, I use it for another purpose than marriage – it’s for a small business with 3 employees!!
3. In the quote section. Is it possible to add a line-break and/or images?
4. How to I make a scroll-effect to the “home”-section. Whatever I try, it just seems to go back to the loading-screen. I just want it to scroll back to the top of the site.
Hope to hear from you soon. Kristoffer
Hi Kristoffer, thanks for your purchase!
1.) Sorry, it’s a known css bug, it will be fixed in the next theme update. Until than, you can fix it by adding this to your css:.navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a:hover, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a:hover, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a:focus, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a:focus { background-color: #yourColor; }
2.) I’m afraid not. FlatLove is particularly a wedding theme, so the bride & groom detail input fields in the Couple widget are specific.
3.) Connect to your site via FTP, and locate your widget-quotes.php file at the includes/widgets folder (within your theme folder) and replace the original file with this modified version.
After saving, you will be able to add plain html code in the quote fields.
4.) Go to Appearance > Menus and replace the existing “Home” menu item with a Scroll Menu Item type “Home” link, and the url would be http://www.yoursite.com/#header
– so when it’s clicked – it scrolls to the top of your page.
Happy customizing! Cheers, Erik
Wow, thanks for your quick reply!
1) That will do! In which .css-file should I paste it? Wether I paste it into style.css or flatlove.css does not seem to have an effect. Can I change the font-color to white as well?
2) Ah, should perhaps have known that. That’s what you get for searching in the wedding-category
3) Cool. Is it possible to add .html to the couple description as well?
4) Works perfect!
Thanks, Kristoffer
Your welcome!
.navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a:hover, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a:hover, .navbar-default .navbar-nav > .open > a:focus, .navbar .navbar-nav > .open > a:focus { background-color: #yourColor !important; }
2.) Sorry for that..
3.) Sure, here you go: widget-couple.php
4.) Great!

How can I install the Upgrade from April 2016? When I try to upload the ZIP I only get en error, saying that the folder already exists.
Also, the parallax thing seemed to stop working… why? Was that due to your HTML extra code to make the first image parallaxed?`
Hello, thanks for your purchase!
Please refer to the Manual Update part of the documentation.
As far as i know, the parallax effect of the slider background didn’t stop working, as you can see in the initial demo.. If yours doesn’t seem to work, maybe you have a js error on your site, what prevents the parallax script from being loaded properly. If you share your site link, i can check this for you.
Cheers, Erik
Hello, I am currently trying to customize your wordpress template. Everything seems to be working great, however everytime I try to add a customize image background for the parallax effect, it doesn’t show up, the colors do (and they change with opacity as well), but the images dont at all. Ive tried numerous things, even the present images (for example the “&” image you have behind the couples page) dont show up, have you seen this issue? If so, any way to fix it?
Hello, thanks for your purchase. Can you send me over your site link? I need to check it before I could suggest a solution. Cheers, Erik
Hi ErikTailor – http://thebestadventureever.com/ is the link..
Probably it’s a theme bug, coming from a javascript error, what conflicts with the parallax plugin script and prevents it from being loaded properly.
Open up your scripts.js file from the ../assets/javascripts folder (within your theme files) and replace the content of line 60 to this:
$('.navbar a[href*="#"]:not([href="#"])').click(function() {
Let me know if it solved the issue, so i can push a theme update including this bugfix. Cheers, Erik
Thanks EriktTailor! That worked great! Appreciate your help!
No problem! Happy customizing! Cheers, Erik
Hi, Is it possible to add a link for images in photo widged, powered by jquery owlcarousel?
Hello, thanks for your purchase! It’s currently powered by owlcarousel, you might be thinking of a lightbox style (once you click an image, it opens bigger) right? Cheers, Erik
Hi – lovely theme. Would like to know if you can add pages to the WP version. Looks like there are 2+ post styles, so is that it? Thanks
Hello! Thanks, i’m glad you like it! As FlatLove is a onepage theme basically, you can only use the full-width sample page template in case you would like to have separate pages besides the onepage front page template.
You can learn more about the available post and page templates in the Contents part of the theme documentation.
Cheers, Erik
Hi, I would like to add some formatting to the text inside the Event box on the homepage, in particular to the Event details / Event place.
It would be nice to add some line-breaks for instance but if I type
, the cose is automatically deleted upon saving.
Is it possible to activate HTML, at least some tags?
Thank you,
Paolo
Sorry, I forgot to mention that I edited the includes/widgets/widget-events.php adding the line:
<?php $place = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), ‘event-place’, true ); echo esc_attr( $place ); ?>
to show the event place.
Hi Paolo, thanks for your purchase!
1.) To add extra line breaks, just add this where you prefer to have more spacing (instead of using<br>
tag or enter):
<p> </p>
Let me know if you need further assistance. Happy customizing! Cheers, Erik
Please the menu buttons are not clicking on the mobile view.. thank you
i need assistant on it to no why the menu can not via on the mobile view
Hello, thanks for your purchase. For me it works as expected… Can you tell me more details and send me your site link where you noticed this? Cheers, Erik
Awesome template, however, having a few minor glitches:
- If I change the colors, it does NOT change the colors of the “active” section (see: www.diehochze.it )
- also, the “hover” color and the headline on a blog single page is still in red. How can I change that?
- can I change the text under the count-down? Would love to have it in German.
- how can I change the colorscheme of the single blog page? would love to have it available in different colors, like at volkerbeck.eu
Hello and thanks for your purchase, i’m glad you like it.
- If I change the colors, it does NOT change the colors of the “active” section
What do you mean by “active section”? I see the default red colors on your site, but not sure where did you leave it on purpose..
- also, the “hover” color and the headline on a blog single page is still in red. How can I change that?
Might be a theme bug, i’m going to check on this. Meanwhile, you can simply recolor it with css:
.blog-post .post-content .post-title { color: #yourColor; }
- can I change the text under the count-down? Would love to have it in German.
Sure, just rewrite them in the source php file of the Countdown Widget, located at ../includes/widgets/widget-countdown.php starting from line 56. Let me know if you need further assistance with this.
- how can I change the colorscheme of the single blog page? would love to have it available in different colors, like at volkerbeck.eu
There’s no built in option for that, i would recolor the desired elements with plain css.
Cheers, Erik
Hi Eric,
the “active” section is now working, however, I’d like to have the active section to be marked in another color – like in the HTML5-preview.
With the blog, I’ll have to see, what I will do.
There is one more thing: - in the HTML5-Version, the image with “the bride and groom are getting married” in parallax style. Would love to have it in wordpress as well. How can I do that?
- I guess, I’d have to CSS-code the footer section, if I wanted to have another color for the text?
- How can I change the “events” to show all 3 in a row? or is that impossible?
- How can I change the order of the events? What should I do, to have them sorted in the correct section?
- can I change the footer? Would like to move the copyright to the imprint
I did password-protect the page, so if could email me at beck AT knittler DOT de, I could give you the details for the website.
- Is it possbile to make the quotes “auto-rotate”?
Thanx!
Hello! See my replies below:
..I’d like to have the active section to be marked in another color
Please be more specific, i’m not able to check your site any more (it asks for password) and i’m not sure what are you trying to achieve.
..the image with “the bride and groom are getting married” in parallax style. Would love to have it in wordpress as well. How can I do that?
Add this to your css:
.home-header { background-attachment: fixed !important; }
I guess, I’d have to CSS-code the footer section, if I wanted to have another color for the text?
If it’s unique – yes. Let me know which footer are you pointing at, and what color modification do you prefer – and i’m gonna give you the proper css code to insert.
How can I change the “events” to show all 3 in a row? or is that impossible?
You can’t do that from the WordPress admin, it requires some additional php and css modifications in the source code. I can do that for you, but it’s considered as a customization. Please contact me in email if you still need it and i’ll give you a quote.
How can I change the order of the events? What should I do, to have them sorted in the correct section?
You can get the wished order if you play around with the event posts date. Please check this article by wpbeginner for more.
can I change the footer? Would like to move the copyright to the imprint
What’s the “imprint”? Please be more specific.
- Is it possbile to make the quotes “auto-rotate”?
Sure, open up your widget-quotes.php file from the ../includes/widgets/ folder and insert this snippet after line 81:
, autoplay: true
Cheers, Erik
Which Line is Line 81? On my machine, there are no line numbers (using MS editor).
Imprint -> the page, where the “official” stuff is placed, like Name, Contact information (German law requires such a page)
the extra CSS did work. Thank you!
What I mean with “active” section: If you click on “couple” (on the HTML5-demo), the word “couple” in the top menue is highlighted by a different, darker color red. How can I achieve that?
I will e-mail you the password for the site.
..On my machine, there are no line numbers (using MS editor).
Get rid of it as soon as possible! I mean it’s not capable for code editing purposes, use Sublime Text or NotePad++ instead.
Imprint -> the page, where the “official” stuff is placed
I’m sorry, but still don’t understand.. Can you send me a screenshot of this element?
the extra CSS did work. Thank you!
Your welcome.
What I mean with “active” section: If you click on “couple” (on the HTML5-demo), the word “couple” in the top menue is highlighted by a different, darker color red. How can I achieve that?
Ok I understand now, thanks for the clarification. Unfortunately the navigation menu in the html version – altough it looks same in visual – technically it’s quite different. I’m afraid there’s no quick solution for that, as it would require javascript modifications.
I will e-mail you the password for the site.
Ok, i’m replying to my emails, will get to yours soon.
Cheers, Erik
