Theme looks excellent. But there is hell lot of multiple CSS files. like, xstore.css, js_composer.min.css, etheme_builder-styles.css, style.css.
I am trying to minify. And JS is also too much. I am ditching Page Builders completely. I have tried both Bakery and Elementor. Bakery is better than Elementor in page load speed but, Bakery creates lot of JS.
I want to increase the number of footer widgets from 4-6. I have tried adding extra widgets by code. But, it is not visible in the theme. Max allowed is 4. I need it to be 6, by adding code to functions.php.
And BTW, disabling Page Builders cause any errors in the theme files?
Thanks

Please, contact administrator

Hello,

If you want to modify CSS code, add your custom code inside style.css file of child theme or in Theme options > Theme custom CSS area. Do not edit parent theme files directly, because changes will be lost after the theme update.
All our demo versions use WPBakery or Elementor and are not slow, read this article – https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/troubleshooting/how-to-speed-up-my-website/ Content of Footer static block can be edited using these plugins also.
You can activate Optimize Frontend CSS in Theme Options > Speed optimization, or use minify option of a cache plugin.
Disabling page builders plugin should not cause any error in theme files, but you woun’t be able to use our custom elements that were created for WPBakery or Elementor.
Yes, the max value of Footer Columns is 4, right now. You can submit a request about adding new options here – https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/
Sorry, but additional customization in files is outside the scope of our basic support.

Regards

Thanks for Reply. I always make changes in Child Theme only.
As of now, I am planning not to use any Custom Elements. But I may in future. I have even disabled ‘Single Product Builder’. After a lot of Trail and Error, I found Some Elements take time to load. After Disabling Single Product Builders, Speed has improved. Quite Happy with it.
I have one more question.
Is there a way to completely disable child theme style.css and only use front end css?
Because, Even if it is empty, it loads the stylesheet. increasing 1 more request.
Thank you

A small CSS mod,
How can I set footer widgets side by side in Responsive view?
I am using this CSS.
@media only screen and (max-width: 992px) .footer-widget {
width: 50%;
float: left;
}
I may be missing something, It doesn’t work properly. Please guide

Hello,

There is no option to disable child theme style.css. Use cache plugin to minify and combine styles and reduce the number of requests.

Your footer widgets display in 2 columns according to your code. So, what’s wrong?
Do you use child theme style.css or Theme Options > Custom CSS to add the code? I hope you don’t change the parent theme files because you will lose your customization after the theme update in this case.
