First of all: I really love the theme, and setting up goes really smoothly. I have only been working on a couple of pages now, but nevertheless I have encountered some questions:
1. Can the small stroke below the header be removed?
2. I tried to add some functionality to the Contact page (eg a logos carousel), but WP bakery doesn’t allow me to make changes to that page. How come?
3. I would like to use the contact page form only as a newsletter subscription form. Is that possible? Also: can the description in the form fields be altered?
4. I would like to create multiple forms (eg event confirmation). I tried WP forms and Ninja Forms, but I can’t find how to make them look like the form on the contact page.
5. Can the top menu on desk top be aligned right?
6. I disabled comments in the settings but the ‘share your thoughts’ block is still visible. How come?
7. Can the colour of the buttons in the blog masonry be altered? It’s a pity the pretty black button style on the contact page is totally different
8. Can the text ’share this story on’ be translated somewhere?
2. That is because the Contact page is using a different template and it's not a default page where you can use WPBakery Page Builder, you will have the same result if you're trying to edit the blog let's say, or the shop too.
3. Contact form will work only as a contact form and it doesn't have the functionality of a newsletter subscription. Regarding your second question, the labels can be changed.
4. We can help you by giving extra CSS and it will make the fields look like they are native to the theme and not from any plugin, which are the pages using these forms?
8. To translate theme strings, you can do this via Loco Translate plugin. If you don't have this plugin, please install and activate it in your WordPress site.
— 2. Click "New Language" for the current active theme (if you didn't created it yet, otherwise ignore this step). On the new language page, choose these options – click here http://d.pr/i/1ewoc
— 3. After that you will be redirected to the editing screen for theme translations. Before you continue make sure this is true – click here http://d.pr/i/18h0w
— 4. Follow these instructions to learn how to translate strings – http://d.pr/i/1jsek
Note: Translation files will be saved to wp-content/themes/{theme-name}/languages folder. Here you have the explanation – http://d.pr/i/1lBCJ
After you make your changes, always save a backup when there is new theme update. After you update the theme (languages folder will be replaced), just move the backup files you previously saved to the same languages directory and your changes will still be applied.
- my clients asks me if she can have a second site (just a one pager) for the brand store she owns with the same template. Will I need another license to do that?
- I would like to include Google Tagmanager. I installed the plugin, but to do things properly I should edit the template file and add the following line just after the opening <body> tag. But I’m not sure how to do that. Could you help me out? <?php if ( function_exists( 'gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag' ) ) { gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag(); } ?>
1. If the new site is within the same domain or brand then there is no need for a new license, but if it is not related to the previous brand then a new license is needed.
2. Please follow this guide as adding custom code to your template if you're not using the child theme will be lost in every new update.

- I would like to include Google Tagmanager. I installed the plugin, but to do things properly I should edit the template file and add the following line just after the opening <body> tag. But I’m not sure how to do that. Could you help me out?
<?php if ( function_exists( 'gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag' ) ) { gtm4wp_the_gtm_tag(); } ?>
Thanks a lot
