PSD Files & Images

IMPORTANT! We do not include theme-related .PSD files into the theme package, because it significantly increases the theme archive size. If you need those files, feel free to submit a support request.

All the clipart images included in this theme are supplied with a copyright sign on them. The original images belong to their owners and are not available for download with this theme. They can be purchased separately directly from these owners.

Nevertheless, you can request the clipart-related image IDs/references and .PSD files by contacting our support department.

Installation

WordPress Information

To install this theme you must have a working version of WordPress already installed. Below are some useful links regarding WordPress information.

Theme Requirements

To use this theme you must be running at least WordPress 6.0, PHP 7.4 or higher.
External plug-ins may require additional limitations.
If you use a hosting service with limited resources (e.g. GoDaddy!), you may experience issues with the "one-click" demo data installation.

We recommend that you contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your server PHP configuration limits are as follows:

  • max_execution_time 600
  • memory_limit 128M
  • post_max_size 32M
  • upload_max_filesize 32M

If you are running unmanaged dedicated server or VPS, you should check your php.ini file. Alternatively, you can edit .htaccess file in the root of your website and add the following values:

  • php_value max_execution_time 600
  • php_value memory_limit 128M
  • php_value post_max_size 32M
  • php_value upload_max_filesize 32M

Setting these values will ensure you will not get error messages during the installation. To safeguard your website, please use secure passwords and the latest version of WordPress and plug-ins.

Here is the list of web hosting service providers we recommend:

Theme Installation

Unpacking the theme

Before installing the theme, please make sure you unpacked the archive and extracted the theme files. Some of the folders names may slightly vary. Treat the screenshot below as an example only.

The main package contains archives with the main theme, child theme and documentation.

If you try to install the wrong files, you will get the missing style.css error. This is the most common error that means you are trying to install an incorrect package.

In order to install the theme, you need to have a working version of WordPress installed on your server first. Check out this guide for detailed information on how to install WordPress. We also highly recommend updating your WordPress to the latest stable version.

There are 2 ways to install the theme:

  • via FTP:
    1. Log into your web server with FTP client software.
    2. Unzip the sounder.zip file and ONLY use the extracted /sounder theme folder.
    3. Upload the extracted sounder theme folder into /wp-content/themes.
    4. Navigate to the Appearance > Themes tab and activate the theme.
  • via WordPress admin panel:
    1. Log into the WordPress admin panel.
    2. Navigate to Appearance > Themes and click on Add New and Upload Theme.
    3. Select the sounder.zip folder and click Install Now button.
    4. After the successful installation, click on Activate or navigate to the Appearance > Themes and click on Activate button to activate the newly installed theme.

You can also watch our video tutorial on how to install a WordPress theme.

Attention! If you want to make changes in theme’s templates or functions, we recommend activating a child theme before demo data installation. Please see the Child Theme section for more information.

Plug-ins Installation

Below is the list of the plug-ins that come included into the theme.
Some of these plug-ins can also be installed from the WordPress.org repository.

  • Contact Form 7
  • Essential Grid
  • MailChimp for WordPress
  • Smash Balloon Social Photo Feed (formerly Instagram Feed)
  • ThemeREX Addons (required)
  • ThemeREX Updater
  • Timetable and Event Schedule
  • WPBakery Page Builder (required)

IMPORTANT! Please be aware that this theme is compatible with The GDPR Framework plugin, though it is not provided with the theme.

You can find a detailed overview of each plug-in in the Plug-ins section of this documentation file.

There is only one required plug-in for proper theme functioning, and that is ThemeREX Addons. The rest of the plug-ins are recommended for installation, but not required.

To make the theme look exactly as on the demo page, you would need to install the recommended plug-ins:

  1. After the theme activation, you will see a prompt with a list of plug-ins to install. Click on the Begin installing plugins link or go to Appearance > Install Plugins.
  2. Check the plug-ins you want to install, select the Install option and click Apply. Installation may take a few minutes, please be patient and do not refresh the page.
  3. Now, activate the plug-ins. Go to Appearance > Install Plugins, check all the listed plug-ins, choose Activate option and click Apply.

In case you are running a shared hosting with limited resources (e.g. GoDaddy), we do recommend enabling only the essential plug-ins (e.g. ThemeREX Addons, WPBakery Page Builder) and disable the rest. Otherwise, it may significantly increase the memory consumption, which might lead to unwanted issues.

Gutenberg Compatibility

Our theme is compatible with Gutenberg page builder. You can create new pages using this editor, though you can still use pre-built custom header and footer layouts.

All existing demo pages and layouts are built through WPBakery Page Builder and should be customized via WPBakery Page Builder ONLY.

PLEASE NOTE! It is possible to switch between the page builders. Please use One page builder for creating/customizing One particular page/post/layout.

Child Theme

If you want to make changes to the theme's files and functions, we recommend installing a child theme. This ensures that your theme customizations stay in place after the theme update. If you are not planning to change the core theme files, you are free to skip this chapter.

IMPORTANT! Install the child theme before importing the demo data. Otherwise, all of your theme options will be reset.

A child theme is installed the same way you install a parent theme. Locate the sounder-child.zip file in the theme package and upload it via the WordPress admin panel. Alternatively, you can unzip it and upload via FTP (see main theme installation chapter).

Using a Child Theme

Your child theme has its own functions.php file. Use it to copy modified functions from the parent theme's functions.php, or register new functions.

You can copy all files from the parent theme into the child theme except files located in the following folders:

  • /includes
  • /plugins
  • /theme-options
  • /theme-specifics

In the /front-page folder, you can copy all files except front-page.options.php.

If the file you want to edit is in one of these folders, you need to copy the required function from that file, and register it in the child theme's functions.php.

The rest of the files can be copied and edited directly in the child theme folder.

When copying parent theme files into the child theme, preserve the original folder structure. Create respective folders and make sure that the file path is the same as in the parent theme.

Demo Content

Our theme includes a simple One-click demo data installation, which allows your site to look exactly as on the theme demo.

Before installing demo data, please make sure you have installed all the required plug-ins, check the Plug-ins installation section for more information.

IMPORTANT! Our theme supports RTL text direction! Please FIRST choose the correct language in your WordPress settings (Dashboard > Settings > General > Site Language), then proceed with the demo data installation.

In order to import the demo content go to Appearance > Install Demo Data.

On the page that showed up set the required parameters.

Only Pages, Forms & Sliders

When choosing the partial demo data import, the new content will be added to your existing data.

Although this will not overwrite your existing content, we still recommend backing up your website before doing this.

Note, that the pages are imported without the original images. Instead, the image placeholders are used. This is done to keep your existing content intact.

Whole Demo Site Content

When choosing this option, all the existing content of your website will be lost and replaced with the new data. We recommend using this option for new WordPress installations only.

Use the whole demo import option if you want to have an exact copy of the theme demo. It enables you to import all media files, pages, theme options, and plug-in settings.

Some plug-ins increase the memory consumption. For example, BuddyPress and bbPress (not included into the theme's package) require additional 60-80Mb. If you are having trouble installing the demo data, deactivate massive plug-ins and try again.

In case demo data installation is stuck and you see "Error load data from the file ... " error message, you can manually install it by downloading the demo.zip archive from our server: LTR version or RTL version. Extract the archive to demo/ folder and upload this demo/ folder to wp-content/themes/sounder directory.

Treat the screenshot below as an example only. The list of folders inside a theme package may vary.

If the issue persists, please contact your hosting service provider to make sure that your server configuration meets the Theme Requirements. Otherwise, please refer your request to our support department.

Installation FAQs

There are two ways to solve this problem.
  1. Contact your web hosting service provider to increase your upload_max_filesize to 32M.
  2. Upload the extracted theme package via an FTP client to wp-content/themes directory.
The error occurs because of the low memory_limit. You can increase memory_limit on your server in several ways, namely by editing:
  1. wp-config.php file: define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M');
  2. php.ini: memory_limit = 128M;
  3. .htaccess file: php_value memory_limit 128M;
Please contact your web hosting service provider to enable mbstring PHP function in server settings. The function is needed for some languages, such as Japanese, Chinese etc. In case you can not enable the settings, please contact the support team to get assistance with disabling the function in the theme.
Edit wp-config.php file and add the following lines after database information:
  • define( 'FS_METHOD', 'direct' );
  • define('FS_CHMOD_DIR', 0770);
  • define('FS_CHMOD_FILE', 0660);
Please contact your web hosting service provider to make sure that your PHP configuration limits are as follows:
  • max_execution_time 600
  • memory_limit 128M
  • post_max_size 32M
  • upload_max_filesize 32M

Then re-import demo data - it will be successful. In case you still have any issues, please contact our support team.
Please unselect "Media" in the list on the "Install demo data" screen and import the rest of the data. Our Support team can provide the demo media archive, so you could upload media via FTP, just submit a support ticket.

Theme Update

This step is required if you received the notification that a new version of the theme is available. You can see this information in Changelog section at the bottom of the item's details page.

Before you go ahead with the update make sure to backup your old theme's folder. Download it to your computer locally.

Update Option 1. Update using the ThemeREX Updater plug-in

To get the code, please navigate to your ThemeForest "Downloads" page and click on the theme download link. Check this guide for more details.
  3. We recommend you to check the "Create backups" option to allow the system create backups for plug-ins versions and the theme automatically.
  4. Proceed to WP Dashboard > Updates and check if any updates are available.
  5. Choose the options for an update (plug-in, theme, etc.) and click on Update button.
  6. You can restore the backups created by the system in WP Dashboard > Updates or in Appearance > ThemeREX Updater (if the "Create backups" option was checked before the update).

    • Navigate to WP Dashboard > Plugins > Installed Plugins.
    • Update ThemeREX Addons plug-in. You can click on "Update" button (if available in a particular theme) or deactivate and delete this plug-in. Then follow the prompt to install it again. This will load a new plug-in version on the site.

  5. Unpack theme installable files downloaded from ThemeForest and upload them to the themes folder.
  6. Update (if necessary!) the included plug-ins in the way described above, if you see a notification message prompting about a newer version.

Theme Customizer

Now let's navigate to Appearance (WP dashboard) > Customize to flexibly control the appearance and behavior of the whole website as well as individual types of posts, pages and categories.

IMPORTANT! Please be aware that our theme provides a special inheritance hierarchy system for "Theme Options" settings. It means that individual settings of each page may override global settings made with Customizer Panel.
Settings of "Blog", "Plugins settings" (such as Team) and other groups may also override default/general settings available through Customizer.

Moreover, you can see the changes of the front-end right after the alterations - when the needed parameter is selected, without switching from admin to front-end each time. When you are done with the changes, you should click on Publish button at the top of the Customizer's side menu.

IMPORTANT! Please be aware that all the Customizer's settings are also available for editing through Appearance (WordPress Dashboard Menu) > Theme Options section.

Uploading Logo via Layouts

The logo uploaded in the Customizer can be overwritten by the logo image selected in the Header layout. This allows you to upload a different logo image for each page.

By default, the header logo settings can be adjusted in Appearance > Customize > Logo & Site Identity.

However, you can specify the logo in your header Layout using the Layouts: Logo shortcode. IMPORTANT! The logo specified in your header Layout overwrites the logo set in the Customizer.

Widgets

Widgets are the blocks of content that can be placed into specifically designed widget areas.

You can find the list of available widgets and widget areas under Appearance (WP dashboard) > Widgets. Here it is possible to create additional widget sets that can be assigned to available default widget areas. This is useful when you have different widget sets for different pages.

IMPORTANT! Our theme supports both Classic Widgets Editor and New Block Widgets Editor (WordPress 5.8+). You can easily switch between the editors using the "Disable new Widgets Block Editor" option in Appearance (WP Dashboard) > ThemeREX Addons > General section.

By default our theme supports 7 widget areas:

  • Header
  • Sidebar
  • Top of the page
  • Above the content
  • Below the content
  • Bottom of the page
  • Footer

You can add widgets into widget areas by simply dragging and dropping.

But in order to see them on your website, you need to make sure you have a particular widget set assigned to a particular default widget area. You can assign widget sets either for the whole website (in Appearance > Customize), or for a specific page (single Page > Theme Options > Widgets/Header/Footer).

Widget Sets Assignment for the Whole Site

Header widgets can be assigned in Appearance > Customize > Header section.

Body widgets (for sidebar, top of the page, above the content, below the content, and bottom of the page) are accessible in Appearance > Customize > General Settings section.

Footer widgets are available for managing in Appearance > Customize > Footer section. Footer widgets work for Default Footer Style only! Otherwise, you need to customize footer widgets in the corresponding footer Layout.

Widget Sets Assignment for a Specific Page

If you want to specify a widget set for a separate page, open that page in your WordPress admin and in the Theme Options section choose the required widgets. The widgets assigned in Theme Options would be applicable only for that particular page.

Customizing Widget Sets that are already enabled on a Specific Page

Depending on the selected page that is available for editing with Customizer's tools, you can notice a different kind of widgets sets included to a particular page. The same can be done through Appearance (WP dashboard) > Widgets.

Below are options responsible for managing widgets/blocks.

  • Add a Widget (for Classic Widgets Editor) or Add a Block (for New Block Widgets Editor): just click on "Add a Widget/Block" button to see the available widgets, then choose the one you want to use: Click on the block itself to open its settings (for New Block Widgets Editor).
  • Reorder the position of widgets using three icons:

    • Move - moves the widget to another sidebar.
    • Down - moves the widget down.
    • Up - moves the widget upwards.

After you reorder the position of the widgets/blocks in the sidebar, save your changes.

See the example of how the Sidebar Widgets Set may look like:

Settings of this group are responsible for selecting the way to display the homepage (front page), as a blog stream or a static one and specifying the pages to be set as a static homepage and as posts page.

IMPORTANT! Please be aware that these settings are also available for editing through Settings > Reading section.

Front Page Builder

As a free addition to this theme we provide it with The Front Page Builder. A special tool that helps you manage entire content of your website in just few clicks without using WPBakery Page Builder. You can enable the Front Page builder in the General tab.
The Page Builder provides a few different areas for customization. Feel free to discover them and make any changes to the content you want.

Check the video below for more information on how to properly use The Front Page Builder.

Blog > Posts page

Settings of this group allow you to manage an overall look and behavior of posts pages.

These settings are applied to all types of blog pages, including Posts pages defined in the WordPress settings (Posts, available post types: Testimonials and Events), as well as pages created via the Blog Archive template (unless no custom settings are specified in the Theme Options panel of a particular page/post).

Please check our article or visit this video tutorial for more information on how to add/customize the Posts pages.

General settings

  • Blog style - choose in which style the blog posts should be displayed.
  • Posts content - displays either the full post length or a post excerpt (for default blog style).
  • Excerpt length - regulates the length of the post excerpt (in words) (for default blog style). If the post excerpt is explicitly specified - it appears unchanged.
  • Pagination style - select between page numbers, older/newest posts links, load more button, or infinite scroll.

Sidebar-related settings

  • Sidebar position - moves sidebar to the right or left hand side of the page, or hides it. The Inherit option inherits the value specified in the Appearance > Customize > General Settings panel.
  • Sidebar widgets - specify which widget set to show in the sidebar area.
  • Expand content - expands the content width when the sidebar is hidden.

Widgets-related settings

Here you can specify widget sets for such locations as top page, above content, below content and bottom page. Check the Widgets section for more information.

Advanced settings

  • Image placeholder - if a post has no featured image, this image will be used instead.
  • Easy Readable Date Format - specify for how many days to show the human-friendly date format (e.g. 2 days ago) instead of the regular publication date.
  • Sticky posts style - select the style of sticky posts.
  • Animation for the posts - choose one of the post animation styles. Do not use any animation for pages with a full-screen scrolling behavior, such as Chess 2 columns.
  • Post meta; Views, Likes and Comments - choose which post meta elements to display. Views and Likes are available only if the ThemeREX Addons plug-in is active.

If the page is created using the Blog Archive template, the post meta settings should be specified in the Theme Options > Content section of that page.

Blog > Single posts

Settings of this group are responsible for managing an overall look and behavior of single posts' pages.

  • Hide featured image on the single post

Another way of displaying a featured image is by adding the Layouts: Featured Image shortcode into your header Layout (if available in a particular theme).

  • Hide sidebar on the single post
  • Show post meta - enable/disable the additional post information, such as date, author, comments, etc. If this option is enabled, choose which post meta elements to display. You can also change their order by dragging and dropping.
  • Show share links - enable/disable social media sharing buttons.
  • Show author info - show/hide the author bio section.

Related Posts settings

These settings allow you to select the quantity of related posts to show, the quantity of columns the section should be divided into (if "Show related posts" option is checked).

Typography

Here you can upload fonts and adjust font settings for specific typography elements.

Check this article or video tutorials for more information on how to add new Google Fonts and Custom Fonts.

The theme enables you to use both Google Fonts and custom fonts in your design. You can load up to 5 different font families, including different styles and weights for each typeface.

IMPORTANT! To manage fonts quantity available for upload, edit 'max_load_fonts' => 5 variable in theme-specific/theme.setup.php file.

Colors

Here you can customize the color scheme of your website using the color scheme editor for more precious manipulations.

Check this video tutorial for more information on how to customize color schemes.

The theme supports one color scheme - Default.

Choose one of 2 modes (editor types) - simple or advanced.

In a simple mode, you can customize the accent colors (link colors) of a theme. If you want to dig deeper, switch to the advanced mode. You can entirely change the theme colors.

Both modes contain the following groups of settings:

MAIN

The main color group of a website. Here you can find the following elements:

  • Background color - the main background color of a website; (for advanced mode only)
  • Border color - color used for elements with a border; (for advanced mode only)
  • Text - color for the main body text; (for advanced mode only)
  • Text light - color used for additional meta elements, such as post author, date, comments, etc. (for advanced mode only)
  • Text dark - color mainly applied for headings; (for advanced mode only)
  • Link - color used not only as a link color, but also as the main accent color of a website. By default, this setting sets the Link hover color for the Alter color group.
  • Link hover - the hover color of links, also used as the main accent color for the Alter color group;
  • Link 2 - the second accent color;
  • Link 2 hover;
  • Link 3 - the third accent color;
  • Link 3 hover;

ALTER

Alter means alternative color group, mostly applied for sidebar and footer. Alter colors include the same elements as the Main color group, plus two additional hover colors for border and background.

EXTRA

An additional color group for extra elements such as dropdowns, price blocks, table headers, etc.
As a rule, the text and background colors from the Extra group should contrast against the respective colors from the Main color group.

INVERSE

Inverse elements are elements that use the theme accent color (usually the main one) as a background color. In this way, they get distinctive look and stand out from the rest of the content. You can apply these settings for blockquotes, dropdowns, etc.

  • Border color;
  • Border hover;
  • Text color - the main body text color; (for advanced mode only)
  • Text dark - used for headings or other elements that need a darker color; (for advanced mode only)
  • Text light - used for meta elements that provide additional information; (for advanced mode only)
  • Link color - since the main accent color (i.e. the link color) sets the background color, you need to specify a different link color; (for advanced mode only)
  • Link hover - the hover color of the link; (for advanced mode only)

INPUT (for advanced mode only)

Colors for input fields, text areas, select fields, etc.

  • Background - background color of an input field;
  • Background hover - background color when an input field is active;
  • Border color;
  • Border hover - border color when a field is active;
  • Text - a regular text color, mainly used for the placeholder text when a field is not active;
  • Text dark - the color of text when a field is active;
  • Text light - used for text in a 'disabled' field;

In case the changes of the color schemes are not applied, please enable Debug mode (in Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > General tab) and save ThemeREX Addons settings.

Background

Settings of this group allow editing the background color/image (the one behind the body's content when "Boxed" body style is on).

Just click on Select image button to upload the image from the Media Library or your computer. Right after this step, additional options appear, such as "Preset", "Image Position", "Image Size" and a few other.

Plugins settings > Team

Settings of this group are responsible for managing an overall look and behavior of team-related pages (all team members page and single team member posts).

IMPORTANT! The number of team posts displayed on all team members page is inherited from the Settings > Reading > Blog pages show at most option. The team posts can be added/customized in WordPress Dashboard Menu > Team section.

Style-related settings

Here you can enable/disable team post type and specify the style of the team archive.
Please check "Disable post type Team" option only if you do not want to use this post type.
Apply "Style" option only after you save the other options!

Header-related settings

These settings allow selecting header's style, position, specifying its widgets and choosing whether to override the header image with the post's featured image or not. For custom header style you can specify the header layout and follow the direct link for editing the selected custom layout if needed.

Sidebar-related settings

These settings are responsible for specifying the position of a sidebar and its widgets set (for left/right sidebar position) as well. Here you can also hide the sidebar on a team member page.

Footer-related settings

These settings allow selecting footer's style. For "Default" footer style you can also specify widgets sets and columns quantity. For "Custom" footer style "Select custom layout" option is available. You can also follow the direct link for editing the selected custom layout if needed.

Additional panels settings

Here you can specify widget sets for such locations as top page, above content, below content and bottom page. Check the Widgets section for more information.

Additional CSS

Settings of this group allow you to specify additional custom styles.

The background color/image for the page blocks can be customized in the Row Settings > Design Options tab in the WPBakery backend editor. Here you can also set custom paddings. Please see the screenshot below.

Some buttons on the page are moved up. To avoid such effect, navigate to the needed content section and set "Push block up" option to "None" in the "Content Area Shortcode settings > Push & Pull" tab. Please see "Weekly Radio Shows", "Our Starry Residents", "Last Week Broadcasts" sections for more information.

Layouts

Introduction to Layouts

Layouts is a tool that lets you create custom headers, footers, and other website sections, and is based on the WPBakery Page Builder page builder.

Layouts are available after you activate the ThemeREX Addons plug-in. After the activation, a new menu item appears in your WordPress admin panel.

Your theme comes with a number of pre-built Layouts. If you've imported the whole demo content, they will be available for you from the start. Otherwise, you would need to generate them in Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > Theme Specific > Create Layouts.

Creating Layouts

In order to create a layout, navigate to Layouts (WP dashboard) > Add New.

Layouts are built in a similar way you build regular pages with WPBakery Page Builder. The difference is that Layouts expand the default list of shortcodes by adding layout-specific shortcodes and provide you with additional row and column settings.

Please check this article or our video tutorial for detailed information regarding layouts customization.

When creating a Layout, first you need to specify the correct Layout type in the Item Options panel:

  1. Header - the layout is applied only to output in the header's area. It appears in the list of available headers in Appearance > Customize > Header > Header Style > Custom.
  2. Footer - the layout is applied only to output in the footer's area. It appears in the list of available footers in Appearance > Customize > Footer > Footer Style > Custom.

    You can also choose a different Header/Footer Layout for a specific page. Simply open that page in the WordPress admin, and in the Theme Options > Header/Footer panel edit the Header Style and Footer Style settings.

  3. Submenu - the layout is used to create custom dropdown menu without installing Uber Menu/Mega Menu plug-ins. You can apply the submenu layout in the Appearance > Menus > Layout of submenu (optional) field.
    "Layout of submenu" field appears only when at least one submenu layout is created.
    Please view this article for more information about submenu layouts.
  4. Custom - the standard layout fragment that can be added into a web page using a WPBakery Page Builder Layouts shortcode.

Custom Layouts can be especially useful when you need to use the same section in different places on your website. Instead of building it from scratch on every new page, you can save it as a custom Layout and insert using a Layouts shortcode.

In order to add a custom Layout to a web page:

  1. Add a new WPBakery Page Builder element. In the Layouts tab, choose the Layouts shortcode.
  2. Choose the desired Layout from the dropdown list. It will be added as a new WPBakery Page Builder row.

Layout Templates

In case there are some page fragments with more or less identical structure, you can create one layout using the WPBakery Page Builder, save it as a template and use it as a foundation for your new Layout. Thus, there is no need to create a new layout or block each time.

Open a Layout and click on the Templates button in the WPBakery Page Builder's backend editor.

Creating a Mobile Header in Layouts

Layouts is a preferred way of creating a mobile header since it gives you flexibility and control over your elements. Creating a mobile header is similar to creating a standard header, except there are several features you should know about in order to use Layouts more efficiently. Please see our video tutorial for more information.

Layouts Shortcodes

Layout-specific shortcodes are additional shortcodes available for editing/creating layouts only. They are especially useful for building headers and footers. You can find layout-specific shortcodes under the Layouts tab in the WPBakery Page Builder's Back-end Editor.

Layouts: Cart

Displays a shopping cart icon (in case the WooCommerce plug-in is active). When clicked, the icon triggers a window with additional shopping details.

For narrow and normal row types, the cart displays the number of products in the cart, the sum total, and an icon label. The compact row type has a shopping cart with a product counter badge only.

Layouts: Container

Inserts a special container that allows embedding several shortcodes into 1 layout.

Layouts: Currency

In case the WooCommerce and WooCommerce Currency Selector plug-ins are active, the shortcode displays button that allows choosing the currency and displays products prices drop-down.

Should be used for headers only. Displays a featured image of the current post/page. Often used in combination with the Title and Breadcrumbs shortcode.

The shortcode has to contain at least one element, otherwise the featured image would be hidden.

Layouts: Iconed text

Inserts an icon and two text lines. It is possible to add a URL to the icon.

Layouts: Language

In case the WPML plug-in is active, the shortcode displays button (drop-down list) that allows choosing the necessary language for the current page. The shortcode has several displaying options.

Layouts: Login link

Displays a login/logout link with an icon.

The text for the checkbox (registration form) "I agree..." is set in Appearance > Customize > General Settings > Text with Privacy Policy link.
In order to add/customize the Privacy Policy link, navigate to Settings (WP Dashboard) > Privacy and specify the page that will be used as a Privacy Policy one.

PLEASE NOTE! In case you are planning to use registration form without consent checkbox, just leave the "Text with Privacy Policy link" option empty in the Appearance > Customize > General Settings section!

Inserts a logo (any image). In case there is no logo (both in layouts and in the Customizer), the theme displays the website title and description specified in Appearance > Customize > Logo & Site Identity.

Uploading Logo

The algorithm of our actions would be as follows:

  1. Select the Layout where you want to place the new logo by going to Layouts > All Layouts.
  2. Locate the Layouts: Logo shortcode and click on the Edit button.
  3. Upload a new logo in the Layouts: Logo Settings > General > Logo section and save the changes.

IMPORTANT! Logo is available for editing for each particular layout. If no logo is selected in the Layouts: Logo shortcode, the initial logo from the Appearance > Customize > Logo & Site Identity will be used.

Layouts: Menu

Displays one of available menus. Specify a preferred menu in the Menu field by its name, like on the screenshot below.

The Layout parameter allows selecting the Menu Layout:

  • Default - standard menu with links.
  • Burger - just a button that opens Mobile menu.

Direction of the menu items: Horizontal or Vertical.

Specify default behavior for a responsive menu in the General tab:

  • Mobile button - choose whether to replace the menu with a menu button when switching to the mobile version.
  • Add to the mobile menu - use this menu as a mobile menu only.
  • Hide on mobile devices - whether to hide or display this menu on mobile devices.

Layouts: Search form

Adds a search button/input field. There are 3 styles available:

  • Normal - a standard search field.
  • Expand - displays a search button that expands a search field on click.
  • Fullscreen - displays a search button that expands the search field to the entire screen.

Layouts: Title and Breadcrumbs

Displays a title and breadcrumbs of the currently opened page/post.

Layouts: Widgets

Displays one of the available widget sets (sidebars). You can choose the number of widget columns. In case 0 is chosen, the number of columns equals to the number of widgets in the selected widget set.

Layouts

Displays previously created custom layouts.

Row & Column Settings

Layouts have an extended number of settings for Row and Column default WPBakery Page Builder elements.

Row Settings

Choose which row you want to edit, click on the Edit this row button, and go to the Custom Layouts tab.

Make sure you click on the row settings button (i.e. outer row), not on the inner row settings.

  • Row type - defines a WPBakery Page Builder's row type. The changes are applied to layout-related shortcodes only. Accepts the following values:
    1. Inherit - a default WPBakery Page Builder's row with no layout-specific styles applied.
    2. Narrow - the smallest type of row. The shortcodes feature a small font size and small icons. The Layouts: Iconed Text shortcode places text in 1 line (even for two-line option).
    3. Compact - a smaller variation of the normal row type. The shortcodes have a standard font size and small icons. The Iconed Text shortcode puts text in 1 line (even for the two-line option).
    4. Normal - a row of a normal height. The shortcodes inserted into this type of row have a standard font size, and medium-sized icons. The Layouts: Iconed Text shortcode features text divided into 2 lines.
  • Delimiter - adds a border to the row's bottom.
  • Fix this row when scroll - 'fixes' the row to the top of the page (or to the last 'fixed row'). Useful for creating sticky navigation.
    To avoid "Sticky Menu" behavior check "Don't fix" option.
  • Hide on desktops - conceals a row entirely on desktops (larger than 1680px).
  • Hide on notebooks - conceals a row entirely on notebooks (from 1280px to 1679px).
  • Hide on tablets - conceals a row entirely on tablets (from 768px to 1279px).
  • Hide on mobile devices - conceals a row entirely on mobile devices and for screen resolution less than 767px.
  • Hide on the Frontpage - hides the row on the page assigned as the Homepage (Frontpage) in Settings > Reading. In case the Blog Feed page is assigned as the Homepage, the row stays visible.

You can open the column settings by clicking on the Edit this column button, and going to the Custom Layouts tab.

  • Column alignment - choose the alignment of the elements inside a column: Inherit (default), Left, Center or Right.
  • Icons position - specify the icon position inside a shortcode: left (by default) or right.

PLEASE NOTE! These column and row settings are applicable to layout-specific shortcodes only.

Default Layouts

In this section you can find the examples of layouts that come with our theme. If you have imported the whole demo content, they will be available for you from the start. Otherwise, you would need to generate them in Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > Theme Specific > Create Layouts. Feel free to create your own layouts.

You can view the list of available Layouts in Layouts (WP dashboard) > All Layouts.

All layouts are divided into four types. For more information on how to add each type of layouts on the page, please view Creating Layouts section of this documentation file.

  1. Header Layouts - displays layouts in the header area.
  2. Footer Layouts - inserts layouts in the footer area.
  3. Custom Layouts - pastes layouts in any area of the website, except header and footer.
  4. Submenu Layouts - displays submenu layouts. Thus, it is possible to create custom dropdown menu via WPBakery Page Builder without installing Uber Menu/Mega Menu plug-ins.

Important! Please be aware that this theme does not provide any examples of custom and submenu layouts. Feel free to create your own ones.

Header Layouts

Header menu can be customized in Appearance > Menus > Edit Menus or Appearance > Customize > Menus.

In case no logo is selected in the "Layouts: Logo" shortcode, the initial logo from the Appearance > Customize > Logo & Site Identity will be used.

Custom Post Types

A custom post type is an additional type of posts that is tailored for a specific kind of content. Custom post types are a part of the ThemeREX Addons plug-in, and you can use them after the plug-in activation.

Team

To display team members on your page, you need to create team posts first, and then output them using a shortcode. Add a new team member post by clicking Team > Add New.

Please find the screenshot below with the back-end view of a team post.

On a team member page, you can enter the team member's name, description, featured image, excerpt, and elements in the Item Options panel, which include:

  • Position - a person's position, or any other subtitle text.
  • Brief info - a short summary that is displayed on a single team member page.
  • Social links - links to social media profiles. Add as many links as needed. Clone items by clicking a clone button in the top right corner, or rearrange them using the drag button in the top left corner.
  • Email

The single team member posts as well as all team page inherit the general settings (for header, footer, etc.) specified in Appearance > Customize > Plugins Settings > Team.

The global settings for a single team member page can also be overridden in the Theme Options section of a particular team post. Here you can assign a different header/footer style, widget set, body style, etc.

Team Shortcode

Display the team member section on the front-end using the Team shortcode (WPBakery Page Builder > ThemeREX tab). The shortcode provides you with a number of display options that let you customize the section in detail.

Testimonials

Add a new testimonial by clicking Testimonials (WP Dashboard) > Add New.

Here, you can add a person's name, position (Item Options section), picture, and insert the testimonial content. The published date sets automatically after the post is saved. Please see the screenshot below with the back-end view of a testimonial post:

The single testimonial page inherits the global settings (for header, footer, etc.) specified in Appearance > Customize. The sidebar and additional widgets set can be added in Appearance > Customize > Posts Page > Sidebar/Additional Widgets.

Testimonials Shortcode

Insert the testimonials on your page using the Testimonials shortcode (WPBakery Page Builder > ThemeREX tab).

Specify the Testimonials shortcode settings, including the layout, the number of columns, title, subtitle, and many more. You can also display them in a form of a slider by enabling this option under the Slider tab.

Shortcodes

Shortcodes in WordPress let you add different kinds of functionality to your website without writing a single line of code.

Our theme comes with a number of custom shortcodes allowing you to add the information in a simple way. Moreover, you can use WPBakery Page Builder to add new elements to the page.

Custom shortcodes (with such functionality) support icons from standard Fontello icons set. You can expand the list of available icons by adding new ones from the fontello website. In order to add new icons proceed to wp-content/themes/your-theme/css/font-icons/config.json. Watch this video guide for more information.

Find the theme-related custom shortcodes under the ThemeREX and Layouts tabs in the WPBakery Page Builder's Back-end Editor.

Action

This shortcode inserts "Call to action", event item or columns layout.

Example:

[trx_sc_action type="default" full_height="" actions="%5B%7B%22position%22%3A%22mc%22%2C%22height%22%3A%22284px%22%2C%22title%22%3A%22Life%20Coaching%20Benefits%22%2C%22link%22%3A%22%23%22%2C%22link_text%22%3A%22more%20information%22%2C%22bg_image%22%3A%2274%22%2C%22icon%22%3A%22none%22%7D%5D" title_style="default" link_style="default"]

Anchor

The Anchor shortcode inserts an anchor element that lets you link to specific parts of your page (or to other pages).

If you want to add smooth navigation between your anchors, check the Scroll to Anchor box in Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > Shortcodes > Anchor section. 

[trx_sc_anchor icon="icon-user" id="about" title="About Me"]

Audio Player

This shortcode inserts an Audio Player block. You can use a locally uploaded audio file (from your Media library) or an external one (through embed html code). The system ignores the "Audio caption" and "Author name" options, if the embed code is used.

Example:

[trx_widget_audio next_btn="" prev_btn="" media="%5B%7B%22url%22%3A%22http%3A%2F%2F37.59.14.77%3A8352%2F%3Bstream%2F1%22%2C%22caption%22%3A%22Blues%20Radio%22%2C%22author%22%3A%22radio%20station%22%7D%5D" caption="The Best of Europe Ambient" author="November 25" url="/wp-content/uploads/2017/12/sample-melody.mp3"]

In order to add a new radio stream to the player, open shortcode's general settings (Media item section) and paste the URL for local hosted audio file or HTML code to embed audio. Here you can also specify some information about the radio station or the audio file itself (audio's caption, author's name and description). You can add as many media items as you like.

Update the rest standard settings to your needs: add the navigation buttons, track bars, widget title, etc.

Banner

This shortcode displays banner images. You can select/upload the image, paste URL from the other site for the banner or use HTML/JS Code.

Example:

[trx_widget_banner image="94"]

Button

This shortcode displays buttons.

Example:

[trx_sc_button type="default" new_window="" icon="none" icon_position="right" hide_on_desktop="" hide_on_notebook="" hide_on_tablet="" hide_on_mobile="" icon_type="fontawesome" link="#" title="button"]

Additional custom css class .width-100 stretches the button to the full width of the content area. Please see Broadcasts page for more information.

Calendar

This shortcode displays a regular WP calendar. You can choose the way of shortening the weekday names: to one (first) letter or to three letters.

Example:

[vc_row][vc_column][trx_widget_calendar title="Calendar"][/vc_column][/vc_row]

Contacts

This shortcode displays a block with a logo, short description and contacts. Please specify the necessary links (URLs) to your social profiles in the Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > Socials tab. If you want to add a google map, make sure there is a valid API key in the "Google API key" field in the Appearance > ThemeREX Addons > API tab.

Example:

[trx_widget_contacts columns="" googlemap="1" socials="1" logo="108" description="Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras quis mattis tortor, id sagittis lorem. Morbi tristique, quam vel semper varius, orci quam lacinia enim, in pretium metus dolor a justo. Maecenas interdum eros purus, a rhoncus nibh sollicitudin vel. Nulla ac ultricies elit. Nunc dignissim est at quam consequat, nec elementum velit tempor." address=" Chicago, IL 60606" phone="1.800.123.00.00" email="info@yourmail.com" googlemap_height="150px"][/trx_widget_contacts]

Content Area

This shortcode limits content width inside the fullwide rows. Just set the necessary width in the shortcode's options window. In the example below we insert the Button shortcode inside the content area with a limited width.

"Push & Pull" settings let page blocks overlap each other, the following parameters are available:

  • "Push block up"/"Pull next block up" options - move blocks by setting the negative margins, all nearby blocks shift accordingly.
  • "The X-axis shift"/"The Y-axis shift" options - change position of the selected block only, the rest blocks on the page remain unmoved.

Example:

[trx_sc_content size="none" paddings="small" number_position="br" title_style="default" link_style="default" css=".vc_custom_1524808187002{background-color: #e8e8e8 !important;}"][vc_column_text css=".vc_custom_1502375878088{padding-bottom: 30px !important;}"]Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Cras quis mattis tortor, id sagittis lorem. Morbi tristique, quam vel semper varius, orci quam lacinia enim, in pretium metus dolor a justo. Maecenas interdum eros purus, a rhoncus nibh sollicitudin vel. Nulla ac ultricies elit.

Countdown

This shortcode displays countdown.

Example:

[trx_sc_countdown type="default" date="2018-12-30" title_style="default" link_style="default"]

Form

This shortcode displays a contact form. The text for the checkbox "I agree..." is set in Appearance > Customize > General Settings > Text with Privacy Policy link.
In order to add/customize the Privacy Policy link, navigate to Settings (WP Dashboard) > Privacy and specify the page that will be used as a Privacy Policy one.

PLEASE NOTE! In case you are planning to use default form without consent checkbox, just leave the "Text with Privacy Policy link" option empty in the Appearance > Customize > General Settings section!

Example:

[trx_sc_form type="default" labels="" title_style="default"]

Check the following directory .../wp-content/plugins/trx_addons/сomponents/shortcodes/form for the form-related files such as tpl.default.php, tpl.detailed.php and others. Each of these files is responsible for displaying the form in different styles. Choose the necessary file, open it with any text editor (for example Sublime or Atom), and modify the code according to your needs.

To translate the form fields edit .pot file in the following directory .../wp-content/plugins/trx_addons/languages/.... See the Theme Translation section for more information.

Google Map

ThemeREX Addons

As a free addition to this theme, we have included a unique ThemeREX Addons plug-in. Once activated, it allows expanding the options of the theme noticeably. These add-ons allow you to enable/disable widgets, shortcodes, show custom post types, set links to your social profiles as well as some advanced theme-specific settings.

After plug-in's installation, the "ThemeREX Addons" menu item should appear in the "Appearance" tab in WordPress dashboard menu panel.

Below is a brief description of all the available settings.

General

Settings of this tab define the general behavior of your theme.

  • Debug Mode - Enable debug functions and theme profiler output.

    IMPORTANT! There is a separate file for each script snippet .js and style related .css data. For better theme performance the system automatically re-compiles/re-merges these files into a single .js/.css related one after every "Save Options" button click in Customizer (Appearance > Customize) and ThemeREX Addons settings (Appearance > ThemeREX Addons).
    In case the "Debug Mode" is on, the theme does not run the re-compile/re-merge mode, so each and every file loads separately. That is why we do recommend to turn this mode on only if you need to edit/customize the source script and style related files. Please do not edit the following (re-merged) files: trx_addons.css, trx_addons.js, __colors.css, __style.css, __scripts.js.
  • Disable new Widgets Block Editor - disable new Widgets Block Editor, if after the update to WordPress 5.8+ you are having trouble with editing widgets or working in Customizer. New Widgets Block Editor is used in WordPress 5.8+ instead of classic widgets panel.
  • Move styles to the head - This is a W3C validation setting. It captures page's output and moves all the "style" tags from the body into the head. We suggest leaving it intact.
  • Move javascripts to the footer - This setting moves all tags "script" to the footer to increase page loading speed.
  • Remove parameter "ver=" from URL - This setting removes parameter "ver=" from URLs of the styles and scripts to enable caching these files.
  • Views counter via AJAX - This setting allows managing the views counter. We recommend leaving it intact.
  • Image dimensions - Which dimensions will be used for the uploaded images: "Original" or "Retina ready" (twice enlarged).
    If "Retina" option is enabled, twice enlarged images will be loaded on devices with retina displays and regular images will be used for non-retina screens. The system automatically creates retina versions for all sets of thumbnails. This will significantly enlarge your disc space. It doesn't work for previously uploaded images. In this case you can install and launch any plug-in, like regenerate thumbnails, after switching this option.
  • Quality for cropped images - Specify range of quality (1-100) to save cropped images.

    PLEASE NOTE If you change the images quality, do not forget to regenerate the thumbnails again.

  • Show page preloader - Select or upload page preloader image for your site.

    • Page preloader bg color - Specify background color for the page preloader. If empty - no preloader is used.
    • Page preloader image - Select or upload page preloader image. If empty - no preloader is used. This option is available for "Custom" preloader style only.
  • Add "Scroll to Top" - Add "Scroll to Top" button when page is scrolled.
  • Animate inner links - This setting adds "smooth scroll" effect to the inner page links.
  • Popup Engine - Choose one of two scripts to display your popup images.
  • Use menu cache - The menu caching option is responsible for increasing the overall theme's performance.
  • Collapse menu - Whether you need to group menu items or not, if they don't fit in one line.
  • Icon - Select icon of the menu item with collapsed elements.
  • Breadcrumbs nestings - Specify the necessary nesting level for breadcrumbs.
  • Login via AJAX - Define whether to use AJAX Login or direct link on the WP Login Page.
  • Login via social profiles - Add the necessary code snippet/shortcode from the Social Login Plug-in.
  • Notify about new registration - Define the person who receives a registration notification message.

API

Insert a generated Google API key (as well as analytics, remarketing-related information and marker & cluster icons) to make your Google map function properly. Follow this link for more information on how to properly obtain an API key. Specify Facebook App ID.

Google Analytics code - Specify Google Analytics code or/and any other HTML/JS code to be inserted before the closing tag </head> on each page of this site.

Google Remarketing code - Specify Google Remarketing code or/and any other HTML/JS code to be inserted before the closing tag </body> on each page of this site.

PLEASE NOTE! Check this video tutorial for more information on how to setup Google Analytics 4, Google Tag Manager and add them to your website.

Socials

Here you can specify all the necessary links (URLs) to your social profiles. Just paste the permanent URL addresses into the needed fields and click "Save."
"Allow extended emotions" option allows you to enable extended emotions set. It gives the users an opportunity to mark single posts with one nontypical emotion. Just specify the emotions' names, upload the necessary icons and click on "Save" button.
Blue layers icon duplicates the settings.

The icons are used from standard Fontello icons set. You can expand the list of available icons by adding new ones from the fontello website. In order to add new icons proceed to wp-content/themes/your-theme/css/font-icons/config.json. Watch this video guide for more information.

Shortcodes

Here you can define whether you want to use the Anchor shortcode and specify hover effects or not.

Theme Specific

Settings of this section override the default theme's grid classes, and recreate layouts. We recommend leaving these settings intact.

Theme Translation

We recommend using Poedit software for translation-related purposes.

To translate the theme to your language, please follow these steps:

  1. Download and install Poedit software.
  2. Navigate to the theme/.../languages/ folder and locate .pot file. Copy it to your desktop for editing.
  3. Double click on the .pot file. In the Poedit window click on the "Create New Translation" button, choose the necessary language of the translation from the dropdown list and click "OK."
  4. Now select the constant text string you need to translate from the "Source text - English" field and type in the necessary translation into the "Translation" field.
    You can translate as much as you want, just go through the file and click on each string in "Poedit" and add your translation.
  5. Next, you have to save the changes to your .po file using the naming convention based on the language code (e.g. pt for Portuguese) followed by the country code (for instance _BR for Brazil). To do that click on the "sheet" icon (you can also use hotkeys CMD + Shift + S in OS X or Win+S in Windows) and type in the name according to the screenshot below.
    The first lower-case letters define the language, whereas the second upper-case letter defines the country. In most cases, the language and country are the same, like “de_DE” for Germany.
    However, there is a difference for languages like English or Portuguese, which are spoken in several countries natively. In this case, the difference is in the first and second letter pairs; for the UK, the code would be en_GB, whereas the en_US stands for the USA. If you are not familiar with the codes for your native language and country, then visit the GNU website. See Language Codes and Country Codes for the lists of codes.

    PLEASE NOTE! If you use the wrong naming convention WordPress can not process your translation.
  6. When saving your .po file, Poedit automatically creates a new .mo file, with the same naming convention. According to the example above, the file would be called pt_BR.mo.
  7. Upload the .po and .mo files you just created to the .../languages folder. Make sure these files are in the same directory as the default.pot one.
  8. Our theme is using ThemeREX Addons plug-in, so some translation should be done in language files of this plug-in in the .../wp-content/plugins/trx_addons/languages directory. There is also a trx_addons.pot file in this directory.
    Generate the .po and .mo files according to your language. See the file names on the example below:
    trx_addons-pt_BR.po, trx_addons-pt_BR.mo.
    Make sure that the language of your files is the same as in your WordPress admin panel > Settings > General Settings section.
