    Just installed this after buying it 3 months. I replaced a Woodmart template, but disappointed. Lots of issues that shouldn’t be there.

    1. No page layout options – Just page width. Just want a full width page with no sidebar.
    2. No Sidebar options – Document shows there is a option to set sidebar width but its not there. There should be a option to set sidebar, left or right and width. These is basic setup.
    3. Cannot import demo. It spins and then a popup shows saying setting up a demo is a breeze. and no button to click etc. Tried it several times nothing happens.
    4. The Massive Addons plugin is a WP plugin that is no longer on Codecanyon. Either it should be removed or clealy mentioned it is a WPBakery plugin. I installed it only to remove it.
    5. I use Elementor Pro, so clicking on the header builder opens up the Elementor theme builder. Which is fine. Guess it is meant for folks that do not have elementor Pro. So I will use elementor Pro as that way my templates will be under elementor and can be reused.
    6. Slides – Adding new slides does nothing.
    7. Same with Megamenu. Clicking add new Megamenu does nothing.

    Thanks

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    1, 2/ We kindly request you to navigate to XStore > Theme Options > Blog > Blog Layout > Sidebar only for blog page, enable the option, and then publish the changes.
    Or edit the settings of a page individually – https://prnt.sc/WSaMlf4pFoHY https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/theme-installation/8theme-page-post-layout-settings-8theme-post-options/

    3/ Before proceeding with the import, please ensure that all third-party plugins are disabled.
    To assist you more effectively, we kindly request that you record a video demonstrating the issue and the steps leading to it. This will help us better understand and replicate the problem on our end.
    Upload the video on a filesharing service, for example – https://wetransfer.com/ , and provide us with the URL.

    Could you please provide temporary wp-admin access?

    To grant WP-Admin access, please proceed to create a new user account with an administrator role through your WordPress Dashboard. Once the account is established, you may securely transmit the username and password to us via the Private Content section designated for this purpose.

    Please note that we do not guarantee full compatibility of our theme with all third-party plugins, nor can we provide support for such plugins. In some cases, additional customization of either the theme or the plugin may be required to ensure they work together. Unfortunately, it is not feasible for the theme author to ensure compatibility with all existing plugins, and such customization falls outside the scope of our standard support.

    Best regards,
    8Theme’s Team

    Hello,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    1/ Here is a screenshot of sidebar width settings – https://prnt.sc/WSaMlf4pFoHY Please read more – https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/theme-installation/8theme-page-post-layout-settings-8theme-post-options/

    2/ It is not our theme that is activated on your site right now.

    3/ There are two header builders available, and you can choose the one that best suits your preferences:
    – Header Builder in Theme Options (old one) – https://youtu.be/RbdKjQrFnO4?feature=shared
    – Header Builder with Elementor – https://www.8theme.com/documentation/xstore/xstore-builders/new-xstore-header-builder-with-elementor/
    If you have 2 builders activated, the settings from the new one will have higher priority.

    4/ “Then went to change site logo, nothing happens” – To assist you more effectively, we kindly request that you record a video demonstrating the issue and the steps leading to it. This will help us better understand and replicate the problem on our end.
    Upload the video on a filesharing service, for example – https://wetransfer.com/ , and provide us with the URL.

    It is completely normal to take some time to familiarize yourself with the settings of a new theme, especially if you have been using a different one before. We kindly ask you not to judge our product too quickly. Many of our clients successfully use it, and we are continuously working on improving the theme to enhance your experience.
