Firstly - I just wanted to say how pleased I am with the theme - it's truly amazing!
So far there are just a couple of things I haven't been able to work out, so wondered if you can help advise?
1/ Social Network Icons - I'd like to display the icons in the footer (as per grab attached) however when I try using the shortcode below it doesn't work: [lab_vc_social_networks display_type="icon-text"] The shortcode works in the body of the site, just not the footer.
2/ I've been looking at tutorials of visual composer to maximise how I use it within the theme and notice that I don't seem to have some of the features demonstrated on the videos. For example the parallax features seem more limited (less parallax effects, no background overlay, position control etc). Here's the link the one of the tutorials for reference. Take a look at 2.20 minutes in: http://wptuts.co.uk/how-to-create-parallax-row-backgrounds-in-visual-composer-for-wordpress-2016/ I realise that VC comes bundled with the theme (which is great!), so I thought maybe if I buy my own licence (as it states you get premium features), so I have done but unfortunately it's made no difference. I therefore wondered if the difference in options is anything to do with the theme or if you're able to shed any light on this?
and add [lab_social_networks] or [lab_social_networks rounded] there.
2— All the features that Visual Composer has are on our theme too, that is the same version that you get when you buy the plugin, as for the parallax features, maybe VC has removed them through updates? There are some parallax features on the Visual Composer as i have seen them while editing on VC some days ago.
The 2 shortcodes listed to paste into the footer text provide the version without icons or the rounded version. Its the third example (far right) I'm after if possible - the one with the text icons beside the text? Just wondered if there was a different shortcode for this? Hope this makes sense.
2 - I managed to find out from the creator of the tutorial the extra video/parallax features are part of Ultimate Add-Ons for Visual Composer from Themeforest. I've purchased the add-on but although the options are visible in the backend unfortunately they're not working - I can only presume it's not compatible with this theme? Is there a way of disabling parallax features in the theme to make it compatible at all as I'd like extra options like video parallax and looping the video and using hosted video etc.
Just to update you - the developers of the ultimate add-ons plugin have a setting to help with incomaptibility issues and this has solved the problem for point 2.
If you're still bale to advise on point 1 when you get chance, that would be great.
Kindly open a new ticket and post your request so it will be helpful for the other users to take advantage of searching them on the forum, and we’re glad to help you in your new thread.

Hi Sarah,
We are very glad to hear this nice comment :)
1— To be able to show social networks on footer you must go to Theme Options > Footer
(view large version)
and add [lab_social_networks] or [lab_social_networks rounded] there.
2— All the features that Visual Composer has are on our theme too, that is the same version that you get when you buy the plugin, as for the parallax features, maybe VC has removed them through updates? There are some parallax features on the Visual Composer as i have seen them while editing on VC some days ago.
Thanks for getting back to me :)
Sorry I think I didn't explain the social networks very well.
1 - On the demo page below, there are 3 options for displaying social media networks:
http://themes.laborator.co/#theme=kalium
The 2 shortcodes listed to paste into the footer text provide the version without icons or the rounded version. Its the third example (far right) I'm after if possible - the one with the text icons beside the text? Just wondered if there was a different shortcode for this? Hope this makes sense.

Look forward to hearing from you.
Many Thanks, Sarah :)

Hi Sarah,
1— I think that the third option is available only for the Visual Composer element called Social Networks.
Our theme developer Arlind can help you with this, but he is not in the office until 19 July.
When Arlind come back, just reply to this thread and you will make sure he will see your comment.
Hope for your understanding :)
2— I'm glad to hear that :)
Please see below my query from 3 weeks ago as I have yet to receive a reply...
It would be much appreciated if you can provide support for this.
Thanks,
Sarah
