i want to keep the logo same size on scroll – and remain sticky. (no resize) - how do i do this??
You can add the below CSS into Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to set the height of sticky header to the same as normal header so it won’t resize your logo.
<style type="text/css">
#header.w-scrolled .container,
#header.w-fixed .container {
height: 85px;
}
</style>
Hi there, I have somehow managed to delete the original slider revolution of the homepage 
(http://wydethemes.com/overlap/home/home-creative-agency)
How can I import it again and what is the name of the slider? Can I find it under fee templates?
Looking forward to your help 
Kind Regards Alex
The main slider of creative agency demo is included in the demo content so you can import it in Theme Options -> Home, select only Sliders option and choose Multi Pages type to import.
Also, you can import other demo sliders manually in Slider Revolution page on WordPress admin, click on the Import Slider button then choose the demo sliders that are in the main download package.
You can see all demo sliders in the folder “Demo Content\Sliders\”, select the creative-agency.zip file to import. For more details on importing slider manually, please follow the instructions in our documentation.
Hi I’ve a one page site under development at the moment but I’m finding that the top menu doesn’t go sticky (and non-transparent) until you scroll down to the last section. The site is currently under maintenance, so please contact me for login details, if needed. Thanks Juliette
Hi,
Please make sure the Sticky Header option in Theme Options -> Navigation -> Top Navigation, is turned on.
Also, you can enable transparent top menu when you edit the page, change the Transparent Header in Overlap Options -> Header at the bottom of the page. You can also change the menu text color in Foreground Style option.
If it still doesn’t work, please send us your site URL and admin login credentials through a private message -> http://themeforest.net/user/wyde#contact
HI, thanks for your response
1. yes the above is set, the issue appears to occur when the following occurs: Browse to a section via the top nav e.g. http://ruarangivillas.co.nz#lifestyle-location, then if you hit refresh, for some reason the header object loses the w-fixed class.
2. another issue I’ve run into is that I have a lot of blank space at the bottom of my page… have I set up my overlaps wrong? We don’t have a footer as such, just using the footer bar.
I’ve sent login credentials via private message.
Thanks in advance
1. I’ve tried it on your site and I see it doesn’t work when I’m on somewhere of the page and then I hit refresh. Thanks for reporting this issue, it will be fixed in the next update.
2. It’s happened since you’ve set up overlap section in wrong way. To fix this issue, please follow this:
1) Go to Pages on your WordPress admin, edit the page “The Building”.
2) Edit the first row, change the Overlap Distance from 200px to 100px.
3) Change the Vertical Padding Size to “No Padding” and save changes.
4) After you change that row, you don’t need the overlap on any other rows anymore.
5) Edit any rows in that page and in any other pages that you’ve enabled the Overlap feature, and change the Overlap option to “None”.
Hello, i’m writing to ask you: i need need to import corporate demo how can i do it? Thanks
Hello,
The Corporate demo is one of Multi Pages demos.You can import it in Theme Options -> Home, select Multi Pages to import content.
After the import process is complete, you’ll need to update site settings at the bottom section, click on Corporate icon to import corporate settings.
Dear Author of the Overlap Theme,
Thank you for this amazing theme, I am really happy with it. But I have a few questions:
- to create the overlap vertically? Do I need to switch of the padding of this column? - How can I make the logo in the nav.bar bigger? I already uploaded a very big file but it makes it really small on my website (currently www.fabiennevanleiden.nl) - For the portfolio projects: can I add a custom field as the client information is? So I can also add an custom fields about exhibitions with links and other information? - Can I change the sizes in the masonry based on importance/relevance of the project, or is this only random? If I can do this, can you send me the instructions? - I know how to link to a specific area on a page with the ID function for a row. But how to make this menu so it also goes back to the main page when I am on a portfolio page?
Sorry for the many questions, but I hope you can help me further.
Kind regards,
Fabienne van Leiden
Thanks for your nice words!
1. To create the overlap vertically, we recommend you to set the Overlap option on the row instead of the column. Because you can change the Stack Order option that sets the z-index directly to the row. Also, you can change the “Vertical Padding Size” option to “No Padding” to remove the gap between rows.
2. By default, the logo will shrink to fit properly within the top navigation. However, you can add custom CSS as below to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to increase the height of your logo:
<style type="text/css">
#header-logo img{
max-height: 95%;
}
</style>
3. Yes sure, you can add custom fields in the Custom Description section at the bottom of the Client Information. Put the label to the Title field and put the value to the Description field they will display as you can see the CONCEPT / DESIGN, PHOTOS and CREDITS on this page -> http://wydethemes.com/overlap/portfolio-item/portfolio-6/
Also, you can import demo content in Theme Options -> Home to receive the sample portfolios.
4. The masonry layout of portfolio is a patterned layout, it will stretch the images to fit within the layout as defined. You can change the layout by adding the filter as below into functions.php in your child theme:
function overlap_portfolio_masonry_layout( $layout = '' ){
$masonry_layout = array();
switch( $layout ){
case 'masonry':
$masonry_layout = array('w-item w-h2', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item w-w2', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item', 'w-item w-h2', 'w-item');
break;
default:
$masonry_layout = array('w-item', 'w-item w-h2');
break;
}
return $masonry_layout;
}
add_filter( 'wyde_portfolio_masonry_layout', 'overlap_portfolio_masonry_layout', 100 );
5. You can set the link for the home icon on the portfolio page in Theme Options -> Portfolio -> Portfolio Single Post -> Portfolio Home Page.
Dear, Thank you for your quick reply. I am truly sorry but I still have some other questions.
First in relation to question 4) If I add this code to the functions.php, the masonry does change but is there a possibility to influence every portfolio item individually. So I can decide myself what items have a bigger size?
Secondly I’ve found in the comments that you can switch off the looking glass when hovering over the masonry items, but it is not explained how. Could you share the class of the looking glass?
Some other things I want to hide from my website: I want to have categories showing on the masonry but I don’t want this to be visible on the actual portfolio pages? how do I hide this? (Same accounts for skills)
Can I disable the hyperlink for the tags? So the tags are visible in the portfolio but not a link to another page?
I am still very happy with the theme but these details are quite important to me.
4) Actually that code can set the size for each portfolio item as below:
array('w-item w-h2', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item w-w2', 'w-item w-w2 w-h2', 'w-item', 'w-item w-h2', 'w-item');
w-h2 = bigger height (2x of the normal height) w-w2 = bigger width (2x of the normal width)
The above array has 12 items that have been separated by ”,”. That means you have set the size for 12 first items. Since the 13th will use the size as the first item and repeat to 12th.
So you can edit the size of each item by editing the class name in the specific position that separates by ”,”. You can also remove/add the class name of each position.
For example: change it to array(‘w-item’, ‘w-item w-w2 w-h2’) so your portfolios will have only 2 sizes, the 1st item will have normal size, the 2nd will be bigger with 2x width and height, the 3rd = the 1st, the 4th = the 2nd, ....
Try to change the class in array to see if it works.
You can hide the magnifying glass icon, categories and skills section and disable the hyperlink for the tags via CSS:
If you’re using Child Theme, please add the below CSS to style.css in your child theme:
/*Magnifying glass icon*/
.w-view figure span{
display:none;
}
/*Categories and skills sections*/
.portfolio-category-widget,
.portfolio-skill-widget {
display: none;
}
/*Disable link for the portfolio tags*/
.portfolio-tags a {
pointer-events: none !important;
}
Cheers.
Thank you for all the support!
What is the latest version? I have 1.0.5 installed & in the Envato Market plugin it doesn’t tell me there is a new version but I just got an email to inform me there is a new version. Checking on here on ThemeForest it says latest version is 23rd June (which is tomorrow for me) & the Changelog shows 1.0.5 as latest version.
The latest version of this theme is 1.1 that has been released 12 hours ago.
When there is a new update available for your theme, you’ll receive a notification email and you can click on the Update button in the Envato Market plugin to update it on your WordPress admin page. Or click on the Download link in the email to download it and update it manually.
We’ve just updated the Changelog in the product page, please have a look at it again.
I know how it is meant to work. There is no Update button in the Envato Market plugin. i did have the Update via the plugin for the previous version.
We’re sorry but we will look into this, maybe there was something wrong on this plugin.
However, please download the new update on ThemeForest and update it manually instead.
Also, we have updated our documentation so please choose to download “All files & documentation”.
Thanks! Also thanks for a fabulous theme with exceptional documentation
Hi! How can I hide portfolio-category subtitle? thanks
Hi,
You’ll need to add the custom CSS to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Head Content to hide the subtitle on the portfolio category page.
<style type="text/css">
.archive.tax-portfolio_category .title-wrapper .subtitle{
display:none;
}
</style>
It´s ok for portfolio-category. Now, I need the same for “page”, thanks
You can add this to the previous code to hide it on page:
.page .title-wrapper .subtitle{
display:none;
}
Or this to hide it from all:
.title-wrapper .subtitle{
display:none;
}
Hello: I´m sorry, my english is very bad. I need a button link to the “portfolio” and it displays only the work of a category. I am writing this url: /portfolio/#-my_category but it directs me to the portfolio page with all categories. How can I do that? Thank´s
Hello,
You can see a link of portfolio category in Portfolios -> Portfolio Categories, click on View button in the list of categories to see a portfolio category link, it should be in ”/portfolio-category/my-category/”.
Perfect! Thanks!
Hi there,
I bought the Overlap WordPress Theme and now have a problem adding the bottom part of the footer. It’s the part where you see the flick stream etc. Need your help! Thank you!
Kind Regards Alex
Hi there,
It’s just a page. If you import demo content you will also receive these Footer pages. And you can choose the page to display in the footer section in Theme Options -> Footer -> Footer Content.
Hi 
Zoom in on images when portfolio, I want to button is close.
This is how to correct part I wonder.
I’m sorry. My English is lacking. but help me! 
Hi,
We’ve removed a close button from the lightbox since you can click outside the image to close this popup.
However, we will look into this maybe we will add a close button to the lightbox in the future.
Did my purchase not include visual composer?
also the set up is really confusing, are there tutorial videos for the theme alone?
We’re sorry but we have no tutorial videos. We have only text with images in our documentation to show you on installing and importing demo content.
The Visual Composer plugin is included in the theme. When you extract the main download package, you will see the WordPress installable theme file in “WordPress Theme/overlap.zip”. Simply upload this file in Appearance -> Themes on your WP admin page.
After you install and activate the theme, you will see a notification message at the top of the window to install all bundled plugins.
Hi, Great theme and smooth backend, but the problem is when i install the demo content, the pages templates does not install, i tried it with “one page” option and it worked, but when selecting the “Multi page” option, everything installs correctly except the menus and the pages, they had and “x” Beside them. i even tried the manual export from your documentations. any ideas?
Hi,
Sounds like your host has the low PHP configuration limits. Importing demo content can take several minutes to complete the process. Please make sure you’ve set the PHP configuration limits to the minimum as follows:
max_execution_time 300 memory_limit 128M post_max_size 64M upload_max_filesize 64M
You can do this on your own by editing the file php.ini, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits.
Hi, i’m thinking of your theme for one of my clients. And i would like to know if like flora you modify VC so lot of option have disapear from it ?
Regards.
Hi,
Yes, this theme comes with custom elements like Flora theme so some elements and features from VC have been disabled. You can see all features and elements that are available in this theme on our demos -> http://wydethemes.com/overlap/elements/
Hi, if dont know a nice plugin add like you similars thing without deleting/disabling any VC features : http://massive.mpcthemes.net/ But it’s not deal breaker, can say more about the disable features ?
Regards.
We’re sorry but this theme is a portfolio theme that comes with its custom elements and features. It doesn’t support other features from VC since they’re not available in the theme core features. If you need all features and all default elements from VC, maybe a multi-purpose theme is what you’re looking for.
Also, we’re going to create such a niche and fast theme and are looking for other page builder plugins that is faster and can generate light-weight code so we’re trying to use our own elements/features instead of the default ones from VC.
Hi, so you telling me that you already working on another project ?
I understand now if you tell me that some options are missing to keep the theme light.
I you search for builder, i hear great things about beaver builder.
I’d like to tell you why our themes (Flora, Overlap as well as new projects) must use their own elements and disable some features from VC. Because we’d like a fast theme with light-weight code and maybe we will change the page builder in the future if we’ve found something better. Thanks for your suggestions we’re also looking into this plugin.
Hi, I recently bought your theme and it is working great for my new portfolio. I’m trying to make a customisation to the technical skills progress slider.
Instead of having a percentage to represent my skills, I want to rate my skills as a level (aka Rookie, Proficient, Advanced, Rockstar etc). I can do this by placing this level name in the label field and setting the value to a percentage (25, 50, 75, 100 etc)
However, I want to hide the percentage value, so only the level name is shown. Is there a way I can do this?
If this doesn’t work, am I able to put vertical lines behind the progress bars to indicate levels (the same as a bar graph). However it needs to be responsive and resize with the progress bars.
Thanks
Hi,
Unfortunately, if you select the “Hide Counter” option in the Settings window, it will hide both percentage value and label (unit). Even you do it via CSS you can’t hide only one because they are in the same text container.
If you’d like you can put a skill level to the title field instead of skill name and select Hide Counter option to hide the percentage. And then add a Custom Heading element to the top of progress bar to use as skill name.
Thanks for your response. I found a work around.
Another question. Is there a way to display the captions for the images in the portfolio gallery? I want to add a short description of every portfolio piece.
I have entered the description in the caption field in the Media Library Attachment Detail but there is not option to show this.
Thanks for your questions. In the current version, it won’t display the image description. We will add it into the next update so you can enter the image description to show in the lightbox when you click on each portfolio image.
Thanks for that. When is the next update due?
We will release the next update in a couple of days.

really great theme . is possible to install a instagram feed in the footer ? Do you have a tip for me ?
Yes sure, you can add any elements and shortcodes into the footer area, it works like a page and post. However, this theme doesn’t come with Instagram Feed element, you’ll need to use third party plugins instead.
Hello, thanks for this nice theme. I need to make a post grid in a page and i can’t find the “post grid module” in visual composer. Is there a way to bring it back ? thanks for your help.
Hello,
Unfortunately, there is no Post Grid element in this theme, please use Blog Posts element instead. This element comes with 3 layouts: Masonry, Large and Overlap as you can see on our demos.
What type of font is “Overlap” in the header on “home” & “adventure” on the travel blog page in the example? When I uploaded the theme it’s a different font..
You can see the name and link to download this font at the Credits section in the READ ME FIRST.html inside the main download package.
read me first html doesn’t seem to mention the specific font: images, jquery, ..
It’s available in the recent updates, please download the new update by choosing “All files & documentation” in your Downloads tab on ThemeForest.
Hi guys, great theme. Just one thing when i upload demo content i cant get the images, just the slider ones. how do i fix it ? Cheers
Hi,
All images viewed in the live preview are for demo purposes only and are not included with your purchase. If you import demo content in Theme Options -> Home, you will not receive those demo images. You’ll need to add your images manually to replace them.
However, you can import full demo content manually as we’ve provided in our documentation to receive demo images.
Also, importing full demo can take several minutes to complete, please make sure you’ve set the PHP configuration limits on your host to the minimum as follows:
max_execution_time 600 memory_limit 256M post_max_size 32M upload_max_filesize 32M
