    Hi, Lots of issues with the theme, tried to get a refund but you won’t give it to me. Here is my list so far. There are more things that are wrong but i can’t be bothered listing them until others are fixed

    1. The product title in the shop category view won’t change when i set everything in Elementor site settings to 12px. (Getting around this with the Xstore builder – that doesn’t work but does allow me to change to font size)

    2. Mini cart doesn’t open when i add products to cart – it did, now it doesn’t. Why!?

    3. Can’t customise mini cart enough and padding is way off on the top sometimes hiding the logo. – Also, how can i load the mini cart during design preview? it Just keeps opening the cart page.

    4. Cart/checkout breadcrumbs are too large and don’t offer enough customisation options.

    5. Compatibility issue with Photo Reviews plugin as it cuts off text.

    6. Padding and text size for basket totals on cart page is awful, doesn’t allow lots of information to fit there well. Doesn’t even highlight selected method, other themes at least bold the selection.

    7. No option to add secondary menu to bottom header on mobile devices.

    8. Tried building a single product page with page XStore builder but page doesn’t load in hooks for clearpay and other plugins that insert into my pages such as timers etc.

    9. Tried building product archive page for Shop and Categories page. Categories doesn’t loads correctly. Text overlay issues. – https://woocommerce-799750-4022271.cloudwaysapps.com/shop/
    9.1. Also cannot sort products buy sales/popularity.
    9.2. Also cannot arrange categories manually or by menu order when adding them
    9.3. Filters don’t work
    9.4 Show qty button doesn’t work

    10. Search results doesn’t work, just loads shop page with a filter added but doesn’t filter results

    11. Can’t work out how to add images to menu items (desktop and mobile)

    12. Not enough footer options, 6 is better for an organised desktop site.

    14. Cannot change footer title colours

    Please, contact administrator

    Hello, Adam,

    Thank you for getting in touch with us.

    1/ Please check now. The font-size can be edited. The problem was caused by font-size for links from elementor settings that have the highest priority.

    Also, in Archive builder, it is recommended to use not Products grid, but Archive products element https://prnt.sc/wQRNGS0Z_Crc

    2/ We’ve changed the “Product Added Notification” via Theme Options > WooCommerce > Shop > Shop Page Layout. Please check now.

    3/ “Can’t customise mini cart enough” – for example?
    “and padding is way off on the top sometimes hiding the logo” – https://prnt.sc/5ddKhOZWB5hk It is because you logged in as admin, please check the site as a customer, and all will be fine -https://prnt.sc/wgpXukpxQQ7H
    “Also, how can i load the mini cart during design preview? It just keeps opening the cart page.” – this is a specific behavior in Preview mode, just open one more tab where you will be able to check the Off-Canvas cart content.

    4/ Theme Options > Breadcrumbs > disable Special Breadcrumb On The Cart, Checkout, And Order Pages. Also, you can use our Cart/checkout builders > Breadcrumbs element https://prnt.sc/ZJPtqAOqik2H

    5/ Please note that we do not give a guaranty for full theme compatibility with all existing 3rd party plugins (any theme on the market can not do this). Sometimes, but not always, you need additionally customize the theme or plugin to make them work together. Unfortunately, it’s not possible for the author to make the theme compatible with all the existing plugins and additional customization is outside the scope of our basic support. But we are ready to help your customers with their requests.
    Have you tried to contact support of the plugin?
    “as it cuts off text” – please provide URL of the page and a screenshot of the problem, and we will check what can be done to help you from our side.

    6/ Please provide some screenhots for a better understanding of your requests.
    Use Lightshot screenshot or Gyazo tool to make screenshots and share the links here, or you can use a file-sharing service such as WeTransfer https://wetransfer.com/ to upload ready photos there and provide us with URLs.

    7/ For the mobile header only the Mobile menu is available, but you can still add different content using HTML elements and static blocks – https://prnt.sc/zxWkWkYd5Vc3

    8/ Please record a video of your actions and the problem for a better understanding. Upload it on a filesharing service, for example – https://wetransfer.com/ , and provide us with URL.

    9/ Here is what we can see – https://prnt.sc/4rEPCo7gHM8- , no issue. Please provide your own screenshot of the problem.
    9.1 and 9.3, 10/ In Archive builder, it is recommended to use not Products grid, but Archive products element https://prnt.sc/wQRNGS0Z_Crc
    9.2/ Do you mean our Spotlight Categories element? Currently, these settings are available – https://prnt.sc/DdkLFd5yZU3J and we will improve this element in the future, please post your request to our dev team via this page – https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/
    9.4/ In settings of what exactly element? Please provide a screenshot.
    We’ve checked the Product grid on your site and the Show qty works – https://prnt.sc/Zz-4bD_jB9sD

    11/ Here is an example – https://prnt.sc/53tE8hvLHfgp

    12/ Footer can be edited using Elementor, for example – https://youtu.be/dedHEO443nE?feature=shared

    14/ Use Elementor or Theme Options > Footer > Footer styling.

    We trust that the information provided will be of significant assistance to you.

    1. I will have to test once if i stop using the Xstore builder. I’ve noticed i cannot change the Product name title size on the product page? Where do i set that?

    2/ Thank you. Would be useful if there were tooltips to mention what this covers

    3/ Thank you

    4/ Thank you, are there no options to customise the special breadcrumbs?

    5/ I understand that, but it works with my current theme. You can see the reviews on this page: https://woocommerce-799750-4022271.cloudwaysapps.com/shop/black-gold-series-tactical-collar-5cm

    6/ See attached photo. Why is the font so large!? We use Flexible Shipping plugin, it allows for shipping method description, which is what you can see for Special Delivery which shows “Guaranteed next day by 1pm” This does not look good. I also attached video comparing your theme to Flatsome.

    7/ Thank you, I will do this

    8/ Please see attached video

    9. Please see attached image. The text aligns to the right and overlaps, it seems to change depending on screen size but it’s clearly not right. You can see on the size it tries to show product count. See attached video.

    9.1 and 9.3 & 10 – Thank you, I understand this now, we need to fix the issue above in order for this to work

    9.2. I’ll add the suggestion to feature request

    9.4/ It was for the shop view grid but it doesn’t work with Product Archives so please ignore.

    11/ How can i change the size of the image? That option to set the image location doesn’t aways show? It when trying to edit my menus it doesn’t show ‘Use img like’ and ‘Background position’

    12. I will look into this, thank you

    14/ There is no option there to change title colour, only the links.

    15. I have noticed an issue with Spotlight Categories. – On mobile when you scroll it won’t come back – see attached video

    Hello, Adam,

    We appreciate your prompt response.

    1/ Without our builder for products archive, custom CSS can be used to change title font-size:

    .content-product .product-title a {
        font-size: 21px;
    }

    4/ Currently there are no additional settings for special breadcrumbs.
    You can send your request to our dev team via the form on this page – https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/ If it receives enough votes from other customers, our development team will consider adding it in one of the upcoming updates.

    5/ The next custom CSS code can be used (Theme Options > Theme custom CSS):

    .wcpr-stars-count .wcpr-row .wcpr-col-star {
    width: auto;
    font-size: 0;
    }
    .wcpr-col-star .star-rating span, .wcpr-col-star .star-rating, .wcpr-overall-rating-right-star .star-rating span, .wcpr-overall-rating-right-star .star-rating {
    font-size: 0;
    margin-bottom: 0;
    }
    .wcpr-col-star .star-rating span:before, .wcpr-col-star .star-rating:before, .wcpr-overall-rating-right-star .star-rating span:before, .wcpr-overall-rating-right-star .star-rating:before {
    font-size: 1rem;
    letter-spacing: 0px !important;
    }
    .wcpr-grid .wcpr-grid-item .wcpr-content .review-content-container .star-rating, .wcpr-modal-light-box .wcpr-modal-light-box-wrapper .wcpr-modal-wrap .wcpr-modal-content .star-rating {
    font-size: 0;
    width: 81px;
    letter-spacing: 0px;
    margin-bottom: 10px;
    }
    .wcpr-review-rating {
    line-height: normal;
    }
    .wcpr-review-rating .wcpr-review-date {
    flex-basis: 100%;
    }
    reviews .commentlist .star-rating {
    margin-top: 0;
    }

    > https://prnt.sc/nXtNfvFJd6bI

    6/ Thank you for the video. Compatibility with this plugin has not been added to our theme yet, because we have not received a request about this before, please post the request here – https://www.8theme.com/taskboard/
    Please note that we do not give a guarantee for full theme compatibility with all existing 3rd party plugins, so this is not a reason for the refund.

    8/ There is a shortcode element https://prnt.sc/DMyMTjY_sjpL and a woocommerce hook element https://prnt.sc/KFEKL-tI215O , that you cna try to use.

    9/ Thank you for the bug report. Our dev team will fix it in the next theme update. Currently, you can show only products correctly, please go to Theme Options > WooCommerce > Product Catalogue > Shop Page Display > select “Shop products”.

    11/ It shows the real size of the uploaded image, so you need to prepare image using a graphic editor and upload it from the start in the desired size.
    Click here – https://prnt.sc/9DsByBO_UY_A to open the settings, then scroll to the – https://prnt.sc/IRBy2J1KIgO8
    We do not recommend uploading images for sub-items, so there are no options – https://prnt.sc/Ntyc_dyMORxr We would recommend creating mega menu using static blocks and Elementor, for example – https://youtu.be/JiI6qDaVtY4?feature=shared https://xstore.helpscoutdocs.com/article/27-mega-menu

    14/ Yes, and color scheme – https://prnt.sc/PEfYFFEDFeif To be able to edit it further, we would recommend creating the footer using our Footer builder or static block – https://youtu.be/dedHEO443nE?feature=shared

    15/ Fixed. Please clear the cache of your mobile browser and check now.

    1/ Ok thank you
    4/ Ok I will raise a feature request
    5/ Thank you, I appreciate this.
    6/ Ok I will raise a feature request.

    8/ Thank you for this, this has helped me with the timers. However I cannot see how I can fix the issue for clearpay? All of the woocommerce hooks are cart and checkout related? I cannot see any product page hooks?

    9/ Thank you, When do you think this will be released?

    11/ Ok thank you, I’ll upload smaller images.

    14/ Ok thank you, I’ll create footer with builder.

    15/ Thank you, it’s working now

    Hi,

    8. It may be that it’s not available in your country, set your location to UK to show. It shows for me on Classic (without builders)

    9. Thank you, will these changes be made to a future theme release?

    Hi,

    8. You may need to browse via service that lets you change you GEOIP. The better test product is a simple product. This product: https://woocommerce-799750-4022271.cloudwaysapps.com/shop/black-tactical-lead-frog-clip/

    It is the plugin called ‘Clearpay Gateway for WooCommerce’

    I have added a screenshot to the folder shared in private area showing the Clearpay information that the plugin inserts on a product page without builder.

    9. That’s great, thank you

    16. Is there a replacement widget for ‘Products’ as I’ve noticed it’s deprecated?
    ‘Product Archives’ doesn’t allow me to filter what categories i can show? I’ve added image to the Shared folder. This widget was working for my shop page but now when i try to add to my homepage it doesn’t find any products. – There’s not option to set a query/filter?

    Hello, Adam,

    8/ Storefront theme (not our theme, but default WooCommerce theme) – https://prnt.sc/ThUa6tmS1ckS (no block displayed but it is added in code -> https://prnt.sc/awjtWPcg1AO9)
    Single product (not any builder) – https://prnt.sc/NAJQNmE1PLHx (no block displayed but it is added in code -> https://prnt.sc/dLya3JbpaAyU)
    Single product (customizer builder) – https://prnt.sc/buo2xQd4KM8i (neither block displayed not added in code)

    To display such block in Single Product Builder (customizer builder) or Single Product builder in Elementor editor we created for your own shortcode.
    We have added to your child-theme/functions.php next code to create your own shortcode to display gateway information -> https://prnt.sc/AlAe5cW4-IPH

    if ( class_exists('WC_Gateway_Clearpay') ) {
        add_shortcode('etheme_clearpay_product_page_info', 'etheme_clearpay_product_page_info');
    
        function etheme_clearpay_product_page_info() {
            $gateway = WC_Gateway_Clearpay::getInstance();
            ob_start();
                $gateway->print_info_for_product_detail_page();
            return ob_get_clean();
        }
    }

    We added html block01 to the content of SPBuilder (customizer) -> https://prnt.sc/ZIdq0-WmLMKE with content [etheme_clearpay_product_page_info]. Not it is displayed on frontend just the same as with the default StoreFront theme -> https://prnt.sc/LmmIMpUZHgTp

    We think that is it because of the js script issues that are not related to our theme -> https://prnt.sc/Eclh4-2t9sAq because there is the same error with the default StoreFront theme as well -> https://prnt.sc/1efTMg0gZoTB. To fix the issue you can contact your hosting provider or try to reinstall WordPress (https://prnt.sc/OX10xExehwKd) on your staging (sometimes it helped our customers to fix similar js errors). In case you decide to reinstall make sure you have a fresh backup of your website.

    16/ Product Archives element – is available when creating a Product Archive template. It will not work on non-product archive pages like Home, About Us, Contact us etc.

    Products element can be replaced by Products Grid element – https://prnt.sc/fgDY89ImUG7f

    Also, we have a separate Product Filters element that can be added on custom pages, like Home, – https://xstore.8theme.com/elementor/demos/book-store/

    Hi,

    8/ Thank you for that in depth reply and investigation, i will look into this again once the site is live as this is all in staging at the moment. The code provided is enough to get us started.

    16/ Thank you for letting me know.

    17/ Can you please tell me what widget can be used to display specific products? On certain pages we normally manually pick certain products to recommend customers.

    You’re welcome!

    To display specific products, you can use Products Grid or Products Carousel, for example, https://prnt.sc/CLZCe3n2nbfF
