How do I put Portfolio and Blog as categories in the main menu? I can just find the way to put portfolio posts and blog posts - but i want to have the overall categories.
When I bought the Kalium site I thought I would be able to run the Main Demo and just swap in content. Is this possible? I can not find how to make the nice video home screen and my site looks very basic and not what I was expecting.
Final question, can you tell me why my site name has an ip address in it? http://79.170.40.236/incognita.space/ And how do I get rid of the numbers so it's just the domain name?
1. This is a common WordPress question, explained in our documentation and doing a quick search on Google you can find this.
2. That's true, it comes with all the demo content of all the demos, please see this article on our documentation.
3. That't not something we can help you about, the hosting and domain issues have to be fixed by your hosting company and not by the theme as it doesn't have to do with us.
Thank you for this. I've contacted hosting and resolved some issues.
After importing the main demo it loads a blog page at the front and I am having a problem figuring out how to have the gorgeous video home page set up that features in the Demo - this immersive feel was why I brought Kalium. Is there a video on setting this up too?
From watching videos I can see that in the Reading view in Settings I select Home and Blog on the Post page. Unfortunately I do not have these options - I only have the pages I have specifically created eg. About and therefore can not select these options. Any guidance would be great.
If they're not showing then it's because you have not installed the demo content, to install the demo content follow this article. The best guidance for you is to follow the documentation and read it from the beginning, this way you will understand how the theme works.
It is mystifying as I've gone through the guides & the demo content install multiple time. I attach the images that I get.
The direct link to the demo site that the successful installation happy face page gives me does not work (2.jpg) but I assumed that was because of my URL issue. I have assumed that because my wordpress editor was working and I got the smiley message of success that it had actually installed and I was having problems locating any of the content.
But as there is no video / image content does this indicate that the Demo has actually not installed, and it is not my problem in locating the elements?
Do you think this is because my web address http://incognita.space/ has for some reason been registered in Wordpress as http://79.170.40.236/incognita.space and causing a problem. I have contacted Gandi about this. Perhaps I should contact Wordpress?
Thanks and apologies - have been trying to get past this issue for weeks and have read the documentation and followed it.
That shouldn't be an issue because importing the demo content is not allowed for the users that have not activated the theme, there may be many reasons and it is possible that the PHP limits are low.
Can you please share your site credentials here, because we need to login to your site and see this issue live. Your information is safe (private) in this thread.
To include your credentials click Insert Credentials button in editor toolbar. (See how)
I am having great trouble connecting the dots here. My incognita.space name is hosted by wordpress.org but my username and email for the site are not working to sign me into wordpress.org. I am not clear about where my FTP info would be not being a web developer and knowing little about this. It is a difficult challenge and taking up so much time. Any help very gratefully received. Kate
I do not know how you have done this but I assume you are a genius. The truth is may be that I am utterly foolish when it comes to websites, but thanks either way.
P.S: If you like our theme, it would help us a lot if you could give us five star rating on themeforest from your Downloads tab, (if you don't know how, just open this link).
A huge thank you from Laborator in advance, and a great weekend!
