    Hello,

    The problem was because of the code:

    .boxed .st-container, .container {
        width: 970px !important;
    }

    I’ve modified it to:

    @media (min-width: 1200px) {.boxed .st-container, .container {
        width: 970px !important;
    }}

    and it’s shown fine on mobiles now.
    Please check.

    Regards,
    Eva Kemp.

    Eva, Thanks a lot for your help ! it works perfectly !

    We have realize that the web loads a bit slowly.

    I have run the Page Speed: 17 on mobile and 22 on pc http://awesomescreenshot.com/0484ycvx19

    I have installed the P3 performance plugin with this result http://awesomescreenshot.com/09c4ycow94

    The recommendation given by other user in some foros are:

    1.- Install the plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/footer-javascript/ to place scripts at the bottom of the page. But I read that it can broke the site depending on the theme. Are you familiar with this kind of plugins to remove blocking JavaScript and CSS display the contents of the upper half of the page? Google

    2.- The other problem detected by Google would be solve by compressing resources with gzip or deflate can reduce the number of bytes sent over the network. Any suggestion with this issuu?

    Thanks Eva !

    Please, contact administrator
    for this information.

    Hello again,

    We have been translating the website to other languages and have some problems:

    1- How can you translate the footer to other languages? We have used static blocks, which can be translated, but it doesn’t appear translated unless you choose it in the “Use custom footer for this page” option in Page Layout, which works perfectly but that option doesn’t exist in portfolios and we need them to have the correct footer too.

    2 – Continuing with the footer, we have noticed that when we have duplicated the spanish one, which is the main one, a gray row appears just after our footer in the other languages. We have tried to remove it putting a white background to the footer in “Design Options” but it doesn’t solve this. The problem appears in all the footers (english, french and german) except for the spanish one. An example: http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/328525/7f4769511cd1003b580280f9d471cdbb

    3 – Regarding the language switcher, is it possible to have the current language appear in black while the rest of them are gray? I mean, if you are in the english version, “English” should appear in black. But if you are in the French version, “Français” should appear in black and the rest in gray.

    4 – We were wondering if there are any .po and .mo files for the theme that we can use to translate the words and sentences that come from the theme. Where could be find them?

    5 – We have noticed that sometimes, when we change something in the web (normally the header or footer) it takes a long time to show the changes. Sometimes we think that the change didn’t work but after 5-10 minutes it appears. Is it possible to see the change quicker? WHy could this be happening?

    6 – Finally, we have received an email from 8theme saying that there is a new update and skins. Is it advisable that we update our website? We have already finished making changes and we don’t know if this update would “break” them.

    Thanks for your hard work.

    Best regards.

    Hello,

    1. As I see footer is translated for Portfolio projects. Please give us direct links where you don’t have footer translated.

    2. Add this code in style.css of the child theme:

    .main-footer-1 {
        background-color: #FFF !important;
    }

    3. Try to use this code:

    #lang_sel_list a.lang_sel_sel {
     color: black !important;
    }

    4. You can translate theme texts in WPML > Theme and Plugins Localization > select “Translate by WPML”, then click on “Scan the theme for strings” and you’ll be able to translate theme via String Translation:
    https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/theme-localization/
    https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/

    5. You’re using cache plugin and it may cause the issue as it caches the content. You need clear cache to check the changes and it may take some time to get it cleared.

    6. We recommend to update the theme to the latest version. If you made all changes in your child theme, then you won’t lose your modifications.
    You must create a back up of your files and database before update!

    Regards,
    Eva Kemp.

    Hi,

    1 – For example this english portfolio with spanish footer (the menus are alright, but the titles still appear in spanish even though we have translated them in the static block): http://treku.donostik.com/en/portfolio/lore-coffee-table/
    Just in case, here is an screenshot of how I see it: http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/332205/caaed392195e5e031976d260de858449
    Another example, this one is from the french version, with the same problem: http://treku.donostik.com/fr/portfolio/kabi-coffee-table/
    And my screenshot: http://www.awesomescreenshot.com/image/332208/e07ce1cc7ce7d4f471dbb2ccb30cbb85

    2 – Solved!

    3 – Solved!

    4 – Ok, understood.

    5 – Ok.

    6- Ok.

    Thanks for your hard work!!

    Best regards.

    Hello,

    Regarding the problem with footer display in different languages try to use the Widget Logic plugin as described in this article https://wpml.org/2011/03/howto-display-different-widgets-per-language/
