Hi!
I have installed the Intuitive Custom Post Order plugin to reorder posts. This is mentioned in the docs as the easiest way to do it: http://docs.lsvr.sk/lore.wp/#how-to-reorder-posts-and-categories
This works for the articles in the main (right side) of the page and it follows the order set in the admin by the plugin. But on the left side (Widgets -> Default Sidebar), the LSVR Knowledge Base articles are not following the order set by the plugin.
Example: https://manual.giscloud.com/knowledge-base-category/mobile-data-collection-portal/
Thanks!
Hi,
make sure to set the “Articles Order” option of the widget to “Default”.
Please note that your support has expired. Please renew it under your ThemeForest account / Downloads if you need any additional assistance. Thank you.

Thanks!
Hi, the order has been set to Default and there was no effect. As well I tried to change order to other available settings and it didn’t had any effect on the sidebar?
Hi, I’ve just noticed you are using very outdated version of the theme, please update to 2.5.9 http://docs.lsvr.sk/lore.wp/#how-to-update-theme
Thanks! We’ll do the update.
Hi! The Lore Table of Contents suddenly stopped working. They are completely empty and fail to render in the front end. Is there anything I can do to fix that?
Hi,
I am sorry, but you will have to contact me using an account with which you’ve purchased the theme to get support.

Hi,
I’m working on an intranet site based on this theme for several days now and am so far very happy with it. But I ran into two little issues.
First one is that on News category view it’s always showing the whole content of a post, altough it’s configured to only show an excerpt. It works if I create a custom excerpt for a post, but I’d like to only show the automatically by WordPress created excerpt (first 55 words). Is this possible?
Second one is that I want to restrict some content to special user roles. For this purpose I am using the Content Control plugin which is on the whole working very well with two little exceptions. I know you are not the maintainer of this plugin and have nothing to do with it, but I don’t think that they can assist in hiding any third parties theme content either. Where I am stuck is mainly when it comes to the search bar. Unfortunately it also displays items which are not allowed to be viewed by the current user. The content itself is blocked when I click on the search result item, but it’s not really ideal that it is even visible. I know this is not really part of this theme, but do you see any possibility on preventing this behaviour? Maybe you could tell me where in the theme files to look for to search function so that I can try to achieve my goal by editing the PHP?
Thank you very much in advance!
Hi,
ad news: copy the template-parts/blog/archive-layout-default.php file to your child theme (preserve the relative path), go to line 105 and change “the_content();” to “the_excerpt();” (without quotes).
ad search: this is a tough one, I can’t really help you with that without taking a serious look at it, but I guess you can try to copy the “lsvr_lore_ajax_search” function from inc/ajax-search.php file to your child theme and do some magic there. Or maybe it will be enough to create a custom function to hook into search results and filter stuff you don’t want.
Lubos
Hi,
thanks for the fast reply!
ad news: like a charm, thanks!
ad search: tried couple of things and I definetely got a first approach. Have to do a bit more research on how the plugin I use for content restriction is working or rather switch to another one as I’m afraid it is not possible to check for restrictions outside the plugin when they have been applied by the plugin.
Yeah, you need to find out how the plugin works. If it works only on something simple like Custom fields (for example it saves the true/false value in some custom field for each post), then filtering the results should be very simple. In such case you can just copy the function I’ve mentioned above to your child theme a change the query params to include meta_query, here is some example. The easiest way to find out if the custom fields are the way is to edit the restricted post, display the custom fields and check them out if you see something which looks like it is used for this purpose (the field name may be prefixed by the plugin name or something).

German translation – has anyone done this already?
thank you!
I had noticed this FAQ section already … looks like there’s no German translation available. I would also be interested in how to implement the other translation in the menu as in your demo – particularly how to switch the languages after that and how to handle canonical links for same-content articles for different languages. It would be great if you could add that to your FAQ if that’s not explained anywhere yet!
thanks! rob
The header languages menu is basically a static menu, so the way how you handle the multilingual site is up to you. You can either use some sort of 3rd party plugin, or simply create separate site for each language, for example via WP Multisite installation. This is a general WordPress topic, it is not related to the theme itself.
Thank you! Can you share how you realized the separator and the ‘static menu’s (DE/EN/ES) in the demo? I tried, but can’t figure it out… 
Check out Appearance / Customize / Languages
okay, I have installed WPML and defined 2 languages. Unfortunately, using the “WPML-generated” menu displaying flags breaks the layout. The language selection is then displayed underneath the main menu, and HTML code beginning with ”<img class=”“wpml-ls-flag” etc. is displayed on screen … It only works without defining a WPML-generated language selection menu or one without flag images, which is kind of sad to miss out on.
There are not supposed to be flags when you set your languages menu via Appearance / Customize / Languages. There are no flags on the demo site either.
Yes. That’s a WPML feature, I thought it might be possible to integrate it in the Lore theme somehow, but it breaks the layout.
I am sorry but that’s not possible.
But when I insert the code of my icons into the field in the KB category, it’s not showing up. Do you have an idea why?
https://pasteboard.co/JTEABLz.jpg
Hi,
are you sure the icon class is correct and the icon font is properly loaded on the frontend?
Lubos
Hi,
are you using a standard menu for the sitemap element?
Lubos
yes I use the standard menu. It works fine. It’s just when I use this plugin to populate automatically the items, it’s not working. Don’t bother, I’m going to put these elements elsewhere and hope that the client don’t ask them back here.
hi! can i replace the kb categories ICON with an IMAGE or COLOURED ICON?
BEST REGARDS.,
Hi,
I am sorry but that’s not possible without some advanced code customization.
Lubos
Hi,
under Appearance / Customize / Knowledge Base using the Article Archive Title option.
Lubos
Already have it, but doesn’t work https://i114.fastpic.ru/big/2021/0219/43/cef87c6e0b03dc6387bce535088bd943.png
Please share your live URL for that specific page.
Oh wait, AIOSEO overwrites it, thanks anyway!
Hello. I need an intranet that allows users to only view files, does not allow them to download files. I also need the intranet to allow a user to upload documents through a simple interface, not through code. Can that be in your theme?
Hi,
I am sorry, but that’s not possible with this theme without some really advanced code customization.
Lubos
Is this possible to make this theme compatible with the ‘Custom Post Type Permalinks’ plugin? We want to have KB categories and subcategories displayed in the article URL, it works for categories, but when the article is inside the subcategory – it returns an error. Any way we can make this work?
Hi,
it shouldn’t really be up to the theme. The theme creates CPTs and their taxonomies/categories in a standard WordPress way.
Lubos
I would like to setup our site with this theme to have some public KB Categories and some Private KB Categories, with the private ones only be available to logged in users. Do you know how I would be able to set this up?
Hi,
maybe some 3rd party plugin will do, but I can’t recommend anything specific. Some custom coding may be required as well to do that.
Lubos
Hi, I wold like to use the Lore theme as a main website theme rather than it being ancillary to the website. I am hoping to create a knowledge base of my articles. Can I do that with this website or can it only be used for those that have a website which offers services and they want to create a knowledge base for customers?
Hi,
this is standard WordPress theme, so you can use it to create your main website of course.
Lubos
How can I disable pagination for the Knowledge Base?
Hi,
go to Appearance / Customize / Knowledge Base and set Posts Per Page option to 0.

Hi, the company I’m working for has purchased your theme and I’m trying to design the site after their wishes. Could you please tell me if it’s possible to change the design of the KB category archive pages like this one: https://preview.lsvr.sk/lore/knowledge-base-category/content-editing/ We would like to show a “grid” with image, headline and excerpt (like the “Latest Blog Posts” on the front page) instead of just a list of articles. Is this possible in general? Or do we need Visual Composer? Thank you so much! Best wishes, Oliver
Hi,
I am sorry, but that is not possible without some advanced code customization. Your best bet is to hire a WordPress developer for job like this.
Lubos
Hi, What PHP version is supported by this theme?
Hi,
I recommend to use PHP 7.
Lubos
Is it now possible to always show the search, even on mobile devices?
Hi,
it is possible to keep it shown on mobile, there is a toggle for that.
Lubos
Hello! I’ve found that your theme has very nice and fast lightbox on gallery images. How to force it to work with single images? Thanx.
Hi,
just add the “lsvr-open-in-lightbox” class to the link (A tag) of the image.
Lubos
Many thanks!!
Hi! I’ve bought your theme recently and I’m having problems with KB category page. I’ve set the slug, the links are OK, but when I go to category page I get a 404. What could be the issue?
Hi,
what slugs have you changed to? Try to resave your Settings / Permalinks.
Lubos
Can I purchase your theme ‘Lore’ and use it on a wordpress.com blog? Or do I have to use a self-hosted blog (wordpress.org) to use your theme?
Hi,
I am not really familiar with current wordpress.com hosting options to be honest, but themes on ThemeForest are generally geared towards self-hosted wordpress.org solution.
