Hi, I have added some portfolio galleries, but when I select a portfolio category, it does not hide the rest of the categories.

Hi, i cant translate the search placeholder on the sidebar. I try with po files, with theme files, but i cant. From where is this “Search Here”???
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteProbably you are using default WP search widget within side bar area, then label is within WP, and it will be changed automatically when you change WP language from settings > general http://screencast.com/t/WT5R9dDZg1
Qode
My language is Bulgarian and is not changed.
ReplyDeleteHi again,
ReplyDeleteIt seems that it is not translated by WordPress, since on your language it is also showing English text even with default WP theme activated http://screencast.com/t/EsIZ0JJ2

I have purchase River theme old version, this theme replace the old version?
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWith single purchase, you are able to download all future versions, and email notifications should be sent to users from Theme Forest. In order to update theme to latest version, login to your profile, and just download theme again. In this way you will download latest versions, and in order to update you have to update wp-content / themes / river folder on your server with newly downloaded files.
Theme update instructions are available on the following link https://themeforest.net/item/river-retina-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/6059307/support

Hi, i have the 1.5.1 version of this theme, and i want to update to version 1.6.2, is there a special procedure for doing so, or just by Copy/Replace the content of river folder, will work? Also will this theme work with WP 4.6.1 or only with WP 4.6.0. Thanx
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteTheme update instructions can be found here https://themeforest.net/item/river-retina-multipurpose-wordpress-theme/6059307/support

Hi i followed what u said on the link, except an error shows up regarding visual composer or doesnt show content created by Visual Composer, what do i about Visual Composer (the template is v. 1.5). Do i have to do this? Quoted from that link except looks like is for older versions of the template, 5. Delete following folders on your server: /wp-content/themes/river/wpbakery and /wp-content/themes/river/extendvc/vc_templates/
ReplyDelete6. Install Visual Composer plugin directly from WP Dashboard, as it will report missing required plugin (in case you are using child theme, you need to have main theme active while you do this, then you can re-activate child theme again). You can also install it manually from /river/plugins folder.
Waiting for ur reply.
Hi again,
ReplyDeletePlease expand section by clicking on show more http://screencast.com/t/kNnjPkRm in order to see instructions from version 1.4 and above. If you continue to have problems simply activate some maintenance mode plugin, delete the theme and all theme plugins, then download theme from the Theme Forest and install everything again, and you will obtain latest versions, and content will be preserved.
In case that you continue to have problems, please submit a private ticket at https://qode.ticksy.com and provide WordPress and FTP admin credentials, and our support will help you with this.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI really like this theme and just bought it for our company’s website.
But due to our products we want to show not only our portfolio but also the toolbox and technologies we are using. Is there any way I can create new custom type, for example, “technologies” and use portfolio shorcode to display them?
I have the same question with the blog, as we wish to have a different type “News” which share the same layouts, templates, etc. with blog.
I look forward to your reply. Thank you!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteOption for creating custom post types out of the box does not exsit, and we are registering post types from within the theme. Adding additional custom post types dynamically can be achieved with some plugins if you are not familiar with programming but these plugins can use a lot of server resources and can slow down your site especially if you are going to have a lot of visitors. As an alternative we can suggest you to use different portfolio categories, and then to show only specific categories on different pages with portfolio list element http://screencast.com/t/sGjNPzg2 so on three different pages you can disaply three different portfolio categories.
Qode
Thank you for quick reply! That sounds like a quick and easy fix.
ReplyDeleteBut I have another question regarding the URL.
Right now the url for the child portfolio is /portfolio_page/child.
It doesn’t look very nice and more importantly not good for URL SEO also.
How can I change URL to just portfolio/child?
And if I use the categorization feature like you recommended, how can I change the URL for “technology” portfolio? I just wish to use mywebsite.com/technologies, instead of mywebsite.com/portfolio/technologies
Hi again,
ReplyDeleteCustom post types can have only one slug. In this case it is set as portfolio_page and if you wish to change it you can do so from theme folder / functions.php file. So set it to something unique and then you can actually change single slug from within the theme options http://screencast.com/t/L41QRA6aT

thank you for your reply! I’m still playing around with the theme, so probably will send a ticket for support soon…
ReplyDeleteYou’re welcome.
ReplyDeleteHello Qode! I’ve purchased your nice theme, but I have a couple of basic questions: how do I add a page to another to make the site scroll down like your demo theme? I mean, when I click on the menu in my page, it opens a new page, and do not scroll down to the right section.
ReplyDeleteOther question is, where do I add the video link for the parallax video background?
Many thanks in advance
Hello,
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for choosing our theme.
1. Anchors can be set as menu items to trigger the scroll-to functionality. There are two ways of creating anchors in menu.
Creating an anchor item on a multi-page website:
Add a page as a menu item and expand options for that menu item. Enter the Anchor ID of a Row section you want the menu item to scroll to without the leading hash symbol (#) in the field labeled Anchor
or
Add a Custom link with the full URL to a specific page and with desired navigation label. E.g. http://www.example.com/some-page/#anchor
Creating an anchor item on a one-page website:
Add a Custom Link and enter the Anchor ID with the leading hash symbol (#) in the field labeled URL.
2. Regarding background, when you edit row and enable video background, provide all 3 video files and a preview image https://www.screencast.com/t/k90aJAnLz

Hello Qode,
ReplyDeleteI have a gray space under the header. How to remove gray space under the header?

Hello Qode,
ReplyDeleteI have a problem with the portfolio section, when I try to upload a new portfolio image in the image input text box, the image will not show anywhere, as the portfolio image was a blank one. When I click the “Insert into entry” button it just takes me back to the Edit Portfolio Item page without placing the url of the image in the image text input.
Thanks.
It seems to happen in all image text inputs, in title image for post and pages, I clicked on the upload file button, choose the image, then I pressed insert into entry but then nothing shows up, it’s as the image wont place itselfin the text input, so It wont display anything.
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeletePlease, check this screenshot
https://www.screencast.com/t/hsjv0chSD7Ez
So, you should just click on the file URL when you choose the image.
Best,
Qode
Hello, I see other’s have also requested this – for the Image Hover element, it would be really helpful if it could link to an new tab/window. This is an excellent way to highlight partner/sponsor logos, however, I then want to link to their external URLs in a new tab. Please let me know if you’d consider adding this to an update.
ReplyDeleteAlso, for the portfolio image hover function, if the lightbox is disabled, it would be ideal if the entire image could link to the portfolio. Is this something you’d consider adding?
Thanks for the consideration!
Hello,
ReplyDeleteAnd thanks for suggestions. I’ll add them to our feature requests list, and our dev team will consider integrating them for some future releases.
Regarding portfolio hover, this is achievable for some hover types, so try changing hover effect in order to use one which will suit you better.
Best Regards,
