    Hello

    After a fresh install of Classico (theme variant 1), I wanted to replace the existing text in the Parallax section of the Home page with client testimonials.

    After creating 3 or 4 testimonial posts, and adding the widget, nothing is displayed at all.

    Note: I’ve refreshed the browser cache and Cloudflare’s cache, but still doesn’t work.

    Advice needed please? I have used Visual Composer for testimonials on other Themeforest themes without any issues.

    Having the same issue of “Testimonials widget” working (placed in visual composer). Also, i am having trouble working with the product “Swap Image” feature, using “[8Theme] Products” widget, even though I have set Hover image for the specific product (Product Edit > [8Theme] Product options > Hover image)

    Hello @Ravish Singla,

    I’ve edited the file theme-functions.php and replaced the code $file_path = $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] . $file_path['path']; with $file_path = $_SERVER['APPL_PHYSICAL_PATH'] . $file_path['path']; because your physical path for files differs from document_root path. Please cleat browser cache and check images swapping.

    Sorry, but I don’t see Testimonials in the home page editor.
    Please provide us with the correct link.

    Thank you.
    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson.

    Thanks for solving the Product’s Swap image issue. The Testimonial widget is placed on Homepage > Pre-footer area > Right side (http://dev.officialsolutions.in/) & is managed from Admin > Static Blocks > Pre Footer.

    Hello @Ravish Singla,

    We’ll fix the issue with Testimonials widget in the next theme update. Meanwhile you can use Post Grid or Posts Slider element in Visual Composer editor and select “testimonials” for “post type”.

    Please take our apologies for inconveniences.

    Best regards,
    Jack Richardson.

    I just did the update and am still not able to display the testimonials widget.
    I also tried the Posts slide as suggested above and neither works for me 🙁
    It’s on my home page.

    The testimonials widget started working again for me after an upgrade to Classico v1.3.

    However, when I’m using it with a background image behind the testimonials text, the text shows up with a white background over the image. I don’t want that. The styling is not suitable for my needs.

    I also want to be able to change the font, colour and size. How can I alter the testimonial widget text?

    I need some advice how to alter the appearance please? Where to start?

    Hello @kaha,

    The problem was caused by Fusion Core plugin. I’ve disabled it and testimonials are shown now.
    Please check.
