Hello,
I purchased this theme in good faith that a demo import would position myself in the same way that your demo theme for sidebar boxed is.
I will say this is not my first wordpress site and i have used the Porto theme with no issues so i have no idea why this theme is causing so much grief i have been at it for hours and it just doesnt perform.
When i have installed and imported all the demo features things just dont work / display.
Firstly i will discuss the homepage
The “SHOP BY DEPARTMENTS” Section isn’t there and i can’t see how to get it on
The newsletter section is missing the field to put in the email address and click signup it just displays [mc4wp_form id=”17022″]
The footer is impossible to remove or change – the block doesn’t exist in the footer 1 and 2 widget sections, i followed the guide on how to make one the same and it just adds is on top of the one thats there.
I can’t see how to remove the © Created with by 8Theme. All Rights Reserved or modify the payment logo information on the bottom of the page.
I cant find the section to remove the language and currency options at the top of the page
PRODUCTS PAGE
Latest products is not showing
QR Codes image with link isn’t showing
What has gone wrong ? The install didn’t hang / fail / stall etc – all addons requested are installed do i need to end up paying the $50 to get it installed correctly ?
Hello,
1. “SHOP BY DEPARTMENTS” section displays product categories. Have you created categories in Products > Categories?
2. To make newsletter shortcode working you need use MailChimp plugin https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/woopress/#!/1_newsletters .
3. You should create your own footer in Static Blocks as described in the documentation https://www.8theme.com/demo/docs/woopress/#!/0_footer .
4. To remove language and currency options go to Appearance > Widgets and add empty Text widget in “Left Side top bar area”.
5. Please provide WP Dashboard credentials to check the issues with latest products and QR code.
Best regards,
Jack Richardson.
Hi thanks for replying i was at it for about 10 hours solid and worked out a fair bit of it on my own, i think it might just be the translation on the guide it isn’t all that helpful.
I have a decent looking footer i got rid of the default copyright text and added my own, changed the logos so the footer is now ok.
product pages now have the QR code and Brand logo’s on
Mailchip is installed and working too
Thanks for point 4 – would never have thought of that !!
Homepage has everything in place except the damn categories i have created them in Products > Categories but they still do not show

I am slowly getting there with it all – i think the guide needs to state that you need a product in a category for the “DEPARTMENTS” section to display on the homepage – it seems to be asked a few times online and on your forums.
One query i have with it now is that it default opens a category – can i have it so that all categories are “closed” on visit to the homepage ?
Also how would i make the “product gallery” images display as smaller thumbnails until they are clicked ?
See the image below – they both display at the same size
Also here is an image of the homepage with the category tree open upon first visit as per the post above
Hello,
how would i make the “product gallery” images display as smaller thumbnails until they are clicked ?
Go to Theme Options > Single product page > turn on “Enable slider for gallery images” option.

To close first category you need edit the wp-content/themes/woopress/js/etheme.js file. Find and comment out line 1819
$this.find('>li').first().find('.open-this').html(minusIcon).parent().addClass('opened').find('ul.children').show();

Hi Jack – the slider is done – something so simple overlooked from hours of tweaking 🙂
However commenting out this line did nothing

Sorry for the lack of response from my side been hard at work adding products to the site i would prefer not to hand out the information and see if i can tackle this myself but i have hit a wall here.
Here is the Categories Accordion code
// **********************************************************************//
// ! Categories Accordion
// **********************************************************************//
jQuery.fn.etAccordionMenu = function ( options ) {
//var settings = $.extend({
// type: "default"
//}, options );
var $this = jQuery(this);
var plusIcon = '+';
var minusIcon = '–';
var etCats = $('.product-categories');
$this.addClass('with-accordion')
var openerHTML = '<div class="open-this">'+plusIcon+'</div>';
$this.find('li').has('.children, .nav-sublist-dropdown').has('li').addClass('parent-level0').prepend(openerHTML);
if($this.find('.current-cat.parent-level0, .current-cat, .current-cat-parent').length > 0) {
$this.find('.current-cat.parent-level0, .current-cat-parent').find('.open-this').html(minusIcon).parent().addClass('opened').find('ul.children').show();
} else {
$this.find('>li').first().find('.open-this').html(minusIcon).parent().addClass('opened').find('ul.children').show();
}
$this.find('.open-this').click(function() {
if($(this).parent().hasClass('opened')) {
$(this).html(plusIcon).parent().removeClass('opened').find('> ul, > div.nav-sublist-dropdown').slideUp(200);
}else {
$(this).html(minusIcon).parent().addClass('opened').find('> ul, > div.nav-sublist-dropdown').slideDown(200);
}
});
return this;
}
if(catsAccordion) {
$('.product-categories').etAccordionMenu();
}
I might add now that i have more categories – on the homepage it has 1 category opened always
But on the “shop” pages when you are on a product it has ALL categories opened for all sub and sub>child categories in that section.
So for example a category tree could be
CCTV (Main)
IP (Sub)
IP>Cameras>IP Cameras (Child)
CCTV (Main)
Accessories (Sub)
Accessories>Encoders (Child)
This is a small example – so if someone is on a product in the IP Cameras child category – then all categories are open in that Main CCTV Category – it is very unsightly and messy
Hello,

Thank you.
