Hi there, I am not sure where to find all the templates and layouts that the theme said you get when you buy it? please let me know where I find these in wordpress as I am wanting to use layout that is already built to save time. I hoped to be able to build this in a few hours just in switching out content to my own.
You will need to install the demo content under Theme Options -> Home. You can find the instructions here: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#import-demo-content
Thank you, I got an email telling me that the issue is related to the upload file size limit on my web hosting and I need to increase the php limits. I’ll try this and see how it goes. cheers
Hello dear team,
I have a question about updating this topic. I still have version 1.3.1 installed and would like to update to your latest version! Is that possible without further notice?
Thanks.
Regards Stefan
Sure, and we recommend using the Envato Market plugin so you will be able to download and install the new update from the Appearance -> Themes section your WordPress admin.
You can find the instructions on how to update the theme here: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#update
Dear Wyde,
Love your theme!
Hope you can help me. When visiting my site https://geboortecentrum.nl/ on a mobile, the menu starts with a back button and doesn’t show the full menu. So you first have to choose “back” and then you get the whole menu.
I would like to skip the “back” and show my visitors the full menu when visiting the site.
Do you have any idea how to fix this?
Many Thanks! Wietske
Looks like you are using the old version of the mobile menu. You will need to update the theme and all bundled plugins to fix this issue. You can find more details about the updates in the changelog: https://themeforest.net/item/overlap-high-performance-wordpress-theme/15344205#item-description__update-log
Thanks! Just updated the theme but the mobile menu still wants me to go back first. I’m using child theme but that shouldn’t make any difference, right?
Well…. the mobile menu is very odd right now. I’ve checked your demo’s on my mobile and that’s what I would like. Can you please have a look at my site and suggest what to do: https://geboortecentrum.nl/
Thanks!!
You will need to update Wyde Core including other bundled plugins.
After you update the theme, you will see a notification message to update the bundled plugins. If the notification was dismissed, navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins to see the what you need to update.
Also, you will need to purge all caches after updating.
You can find more details on how to update the bundled plugins in the documentation: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#update-plugins
Hi, for some reason we’re having issues with the connection of our instagram account? It hasn’t been touched but is now not showing on the homepage. I’ve tried to re-authenticate it but am getting an error message. Can you please help?
We are sorry but the Instagram Legacy API permission was disabled on June 29, as you can see here: https://www.instagram.com/developer/
It has been fixed in the new update of the theme that will be available to download soon.
Hello, my Instagram feed no longer works. The remaining Instagram Legacy API permission (“Basic Permission”) was disabled on June 29, 2020. As of June 29, third-party apps no longer have access to the Legacy API.
Is there a work-around to get the Instagram feed re-connected?
We are working on this, it will be fixed ASAP!
Hi there,
We finally launched and getting great feedback! https://mindmoverspsychology.com.au/I’ve just checked the page load and its super slow though.
https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fmindmoverspsychology.com.au%2FDo you suggest we: Eliminate render-blocking resources Serve images in next-gen formats
I’m mostly worried with this comment ‘Beware that optimizations provided by these plugins may break features of your theme or plugins, so you will likely need to make code changes.’
Thank you, Carla
The Autoptimize plugin can fix those issues: https://wordpress.org/plugins/autoptimize/
Its saying its not supported, can you please check whats going on with our theme atm? https://mindmoverspsychology.com.au/
We are using that plugin on our demo site and it is working fine.
Unfortunately, looks like your website is hosted by wordpress.com.
With wordpress.com, you will have limited customisation options, it doesn’t allow any cache and speed optimization plugin either, as you can see here: https://wordpress.com/support/incompatible-plugins/
We do not recommend using wordpress.com if you would like to have full control over your website.
If you couldn’t install any optimizer, all you can do is choose the appropriate image size to solve the “Properly size images” issue.
For example:
In the section “The MindMovers Model” on your homepage, it actually displays the image in 600×400 pixels but you selected the “Full Width (1280px)” size for that image.
The solution: You will need to change the “Image Size” for the Single Image element to smaller, or resize your image to fit the image area before uploading to your website and then choose the “Original” size to show.
Hello. Inside my pages I have a customised menu, inserted as wordpress widget in a column. Is it possible to set that in mobile mode this menu disappear becoming a pop-up menu?
.your-custom-menu-class {
display: none;
}
.mobile-nav .your-custom-menu-class {
display: block;
}
You can add it into Appearance -> Customize -> Additional CSS.
Thank you very much. But in this way, the menu disappear when I am on pc (I want it normal) and it is normal when I am on mobile (I want it ‘retractable’)
We are sorry but you may need to add it to the Sliding Sidebar so you can click to show or hide it like a mobile menu.
Hi, I back with another bug and one question. 1) Check this, in the home of my site (latinlingua.com) the section of the blog see, it looks like this http://prntscr.com/sylan4 (check the first post please) 2) Is there any easy way to remove the share buttons? especially because have the Google+ button. Thank you very much!
Hi,
1) It seems to be working fine on my end. I’ve tried it with different browsers and it doesn’t look like the picture you provided.
However, looks like the featured image of your first post is smaller than it should be. When using a Masonry layout, it will display the featured image of the first post bigger than other ones so the recommended image sizes are 960×960 pixels or bigger to make sure the images will be cropped to fit perfectly in the layout.
2) You can show or hide the share buttons under Theme Options -> Blog -> Blog Meta -> Social Sharing Icons.
Hi there ,
I bought 4 licenses Overlap themes and in every theme we have problemes with the translation.. the blog page (the BY and the comment the translation doesnt work) what can I do?
https://kenniestolik.de/blog/All static words are included in the overlap.pot in the folder languages in the theme. You can translate them into another language by using POEdit or a translation plugin such as Loco Translate. You can find more details on how to translate the theme here: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#translation
Hello, This them is using WP Bakery. (WP bakery is now to v6.2) I have been updated on their side, but as the licence belong to you, you need to update on your side too for me to used the new version. How this and when will it be ready? Thanks
Hello,
If you are using WPBakery Page Builder 6.1 or greater, you don’t need to update it and can normally use it with this theme. The new update (v6.2) will be included in the next update of the theme.
However, if you would like to upgrade it right now. Here are the instructions:
1. Navigate to Plugins screen on your WordPress admin.
2. Deactivate then delete WPBakery Page Builder plugin.
3. After you delete it, you will see a notification message at the top of your admin page. Click on “Begin installing plugins” and then install it from the Install Bundled Plugins page. This will download and install the new version on your website. If the notification was dismissed, navigate to Appearance -> Install Plugins.
This is not working! I have remove it, but no pop up an no way to download the page builder without paying 45 USD…
Sounds like the notification was dismissed. Then, delete that plugin again and go to Appearance -> Install Plugins, you will see WPBakery Page Builder in the bundled plugins list and can install it on that page. You can find more details on how to install the bundled plugins in the documentation: https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#plugins-installation
However, if it still doesn’t work. You can normally use version 6.1 with the theme. The new update (6.2) will be included in the next update of the theme that will be available to download soon.
Hi team,
Sorry me again- for some reason I changed the row ID today and all of a sudden there is a huge white space on the homepage and we cannot work out why https://mindmoverspsychology630280121.wpcomstaging.com/Its under the info boxes and above experts module. Its really strange, all the padding is set to small.
Please help 
Looks like you have set the row to full screen mode so it will stretch to fit the whole height of the browser window then you will have the white space under the info boxes.
You will need to edit the settings for the info boxes row and change the Content Width from “Full Screen” to “Full Width” to fix this.
Hi guys,
1. On mobile, the menu font colour is a default grey, do you have some CSS code you could recommend so we can change it ?
Thank you, Carla
You can change the mobile menu font colour in Theme Options -> Navigation -> Mobile Navigation, change the Text Style to Custom then choose the Text Color.
hi. how do I update the revslider plugin? is there a way?
i followed the instruction in documentation i have the envato and latest theme update still says i need to install the key to update the plugin?
If you are using Slider Revolution 6.1.8 or greater, you don’t need to update it and can normally use it with the theme. You can ignore that notification message, it is available for direct customer who has purchased that plugin individually.
However, the new version of that plugin will be included in the next update of the theme.
Hello, is there an update for Overlap or for WP Bakery Page builder?
Also, I am using the Team Members grid slider on my home page. But when the popup is clicked, the team member’s image disappears. This happens on both the desktop and mobile version. Is there a workaround for that?
If you are using WPBakery Page Builder 6.1 or greater, you don’t need to update it and can normally use it with the theme. The new version will be included in the next update of the theme.
Regarding the Team Members grid issue, there may be plugin conflicts on your site. Try to deactivate your plugins to see if it works.
If it still doesn’t work, you may need to send me your web address so I can check it.
I tried deactivating and it is still not working. My web address is www.thedoaproject.com. Please help, thank you so much!
Thank you for the web address!
It’s the Lazyload feature from Jetpack plugin that hides the member’s image.
If you would like to use that plugin, you may need to disable the Lazyload to fix this.
Ok thank you
Hey guys,
Couple questions:
1. do you think its safe to set up the ‘update’ now even though we are nearly ready to launch? I am hoping if we do this, all the work we have done won’t be affected basically. https://wydethemes.com/overlap/documentation/#update2. Somehow and I’m not sure how, we have managed to set up everything in ‘staging’ but I’m wondering how we now go live?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks guys
1. The theme update won’t affect your current data and settings. Please follow the instructions in the documentation so you can update the theme without losing your data.
2. It can vary depending on the hosting service provider. If you are using WordPress.com, please check out this link: https://wordpress.com/forums/topic/why-did-url-change-to-wpcomstaging/
Hi, i have a problem with the theme, in the portfolio, in mobile, some featured images dissapear… i dont know why. Can you help me? Thanks!
We are sorry but we’ve never seen this issue before. There may be plugin conflicts on your site. Try to deactivate your plugins to see if it works.
If it still doesn’t work, you may need to send me your web address so I can check it.
Hi! the site is latinlingua.com the error appears on the porfolio, https://latinlingua.com/portfolio/ in mobile, check it, some works appear without image. Another question, why in the blog the titles appear with h2? the best is that the titles be h1 or not?
Thank you for the link!
1) When using the Photoset layout for the portfolio, it will display your portfolio images in slideshow and it requires 2 or more images to work.
To work around this issue, you may need to add one or more images to the Gallery Options under Overlap Options -> Portfolio on the single portfolio edit screen. Otherwise, you may need to temporarily change the Portfolio Grid layout from Photoset to another layout.
Anyway, thank you for reporting this issue. We will look into this and fix it in the next update of the theme.
2) Indeed, the single post title should be H1. Actually, when you show the page title under Overlap Options -> Title Area on the single post, it will display the blog post title in H1.
However, there seems to be a bug with the theme so when you hide the page title, it will be H2 instead. Again, thank you for reporting this issue. It will be fixed in the next update.
Hey guys, We are using the the slider revolution for our homepage and the actions – scroll below slider.
We had the homepage on desktop all working fine, and then updated the mobile buttons and then the homepage ones stopped going to the right places.
Are we doing something wrong here?
The “Scroll below Slider” will scroll to the content placed beneath the slider. It couldn’t scroll to a specific section on the page.
Instead, you should select “Scroll To ID” for the “Action Type” and then put the Row ID (without spaces) such as the-right-match into the “Scroll To ID” field.
Also, here are the instructions on how to set the ID for the row on your homepage:
1. Edit your homepage with WPBakery Page Builder. Then edit the settings of the row which you would like to set the ID.
2. In the Row Settings window, enter the-right-match in the Row ID field.
Ahhh you guys are the best. I wasted so much time trying get that right. Looks good now, thanks
You are welcome 
Hi guys,
Having a few issues with the site on mobile. Wondering if you can help with the below?
1. Centred text is coming up more towards the right on mobile. For example in groups section of this page https://mindmoverspsychology630280121.wpcomstaging.com/our-story/ 2. Text on mobile is sitting away from some of the dot points, all settings are to left aligned but they’re coming up centred? https://mindmoverspsychology630280121.wpcomstaging.com/upcoming-groups/ 3. Mobile not showing the line from headers in the template creating lots of negative space (all pages that display line header)
Thank you!
My apologies for the delayed reply!
1. You have set custom padding for that Text Block. You will need to remove the left padding from the Design Options in the Text Block settings to fix this.
2. By default, the info boxes will be centred automatically on mobile device. Unfortunately, it might not look good when there are bullet points included in the info box’s text. You may need to set the alignment for the bullet points to make them left aligned on mobile device too. In the text editor, select the bulleted list then choose ‘Align left’.
3. The header doesn’t show the line on mobile because it will sit too far from the content element above it.
However, the header doesn’t add any space even it doesn’t show the line on mobile. The space is from the section (row) that looks great on desktop but might be pretty large on mobile. Thank you for reporting this issue, we will look into this and will decrease the gap between rows on mobile in the next update.
Sounds like that you enabled the “Block Scroll” so that the page couldn’t scroll vertically to see the content below the slider. You will need to turn off the Block Scroll under Navigation Options -> Touch on the slider edit screen to enable the scrolling.
However, you can turn on the “Mobile Swipe Enabled” and “Desktop Swipe Enabled” if you would like to swipe left and right to see the next and previous slides. Also, please ensure that you have selected “Horizontal” for the “Swipe Dir”.
You can find more details on the Touch settings here: https://www.themepunch.com/slider-revolution/touch-swipe/
I am interested in purchasing this theme, but I do not know if it supports and works well with the Elementor plugin.
Thanks in advance
Thank you for your interest in our theme!
Actually, this theme is working properly with the Elementor plugin. You can use it to build your pages and the whole website.
However, this theme was built with WPBakery Page Builder and all templates and demo content won’t work with other page builders. That means, if you would like to use the Elementor you will need to create your site from scratch.
Also, your template and layout will be based on the Elementor. You won’t be able to use the Overlap layout and additional features from the theme because they are built based on WPBakery Page Builder so you might not have your website look like our demos.
So, we recommend using WPBakery Page Builder to make sure your website will look exactly like our demos and will work perfectly with this theme.
