Hey koonpete,
Thank you for your question, you can edit the language files at \wp-content\themes\enfold\lang\ with Poedit to achieve this.
So after you install Poedit open your language “.po” file and search for the phrase you wish to edit, then when you save a new “.mo” file will also be created. You will then need to upload both files via ftp to the location above.
Or you add them to your child theme so the translations are saved for future updates.
If you use the English language on your site you will have to take an extra step because there is no “en_US.po” or “en_US.mo” file, you will have to create it.
So open the file enfold.pot with Poedit and click the button “create new translation” and choose the language “English”

then you can edit the phrases as explained above.

when you save your files be sure to name them “en_US.po” & “en_US.mo”

Best regards,
Mike
I am using the search and filter pro plugin to enable advanced search on my site. When the search and filter pro plugin is active, All the posts by author are not displaying, If I click on a author name and go to the author page, there are no posts including custom post types.
But If I deactivate the search and filter pro plugin, the posts are all displayed.
Same goes for pagination too if I can create a custom query and use pagination and click on page 2, I get not found page but if I deactivate the search and filter pro plugin, the pagination works again.
I am so stumped why this would be happening. The only reason I can think of is that both Enfold theme and Search & Filter pro might be using the same syntax for $query.
Any help is appreciated as I am stuck at this from last 4 days
Below is the code I am using in author.php through custom query
$paged = get_query_var('paged') ? get_query_var('paged') : 1;
$args = array(
'post_type' => array( 'volunteer-position' ),
'post_status' => array( 'publish' ),
'author' => get_queried_object_id(),
'posts_per_page' => 6,
'paged' => $paged,
'order' => 'ASC',
'orderby' => 'title',
);
// query
$custom_posts = new WP_Query( $args );
// the loop
if ( $custom_posts->have_posts() ):
while ( $custom_posts->have_posts() ) : $custom_posts->the_post();
// displaying the posts content here
<h2 class="post-title entry-title " itemprop="headline">
<a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post->ID); ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php echo get_the_title($post->ID);?>"><?php echo get_the_title($post->ID); ?><span class="post-format-icon minor-meta"></span></a>
</h2>
endwhile;
// using wp-pagenavi as AVIA_PAGINATION not working at all
if (function_exists('wp_pagenavi')):
wp_pagenavi(array( 'query' => $custom_posts ));
endif;
else:
// nothing found
endif;
// Restore original Post Data
wp_reset_postdata();
Dear folks at Kriesi,
while searching for a more contemporary webhoster for my needs than Domainfactory is I tried out Manitu Webhosting. That worked out with… let’s say medium success. For instance their rights management diffenentiates between rights for scripts and rights for the FTP user. Forget grown up WordPress Webhosting then, I know :D
Problem: Since you need to install Enfold via ftp the first time you can never update it via Wordspress backend when using Manitu because wordpress lacks the rights to edit or delete the files of this “other user”, which is also you. As a workaround I copy one of my other Enfold installs alternatively to go to envato, which is a even more annoying process for every update. Nevertheless the constant copying and uploading simply is a pain I never had to find a workaround for somewhere else.
So how would it be possible to e.g. upload Enfold in the respective latest version via zip in the WordPress theme installer? The Manitu-mode, so to say :D
Any help or other/BETTER! ideas would be much appreciated.
Best regards
Erik
Hey Peter,
You can find it in enfold/css/base.css file by searching
“av-medium-hide” and “av-small-hide”
You can adjust the values and then copy the file to your child theme inside /css/ folder and then add following code to Functions.php file of your child theme
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'wp_change_basecss', 20 );
function wp_change_basecss() {
wp_dequeue_style( 'avia-base' );
wp_enqueue_style( 'avia-base-child', get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/css/base.css' );
}
Best regards,
Yigit
Updating your Enfold theme via FTP manually
1) Make a full backup of your website using a backup plugin.
2) Safe the backup somewhere outside from the webserver of your website (e.g. on your local computer or in any cloud storage you trust).
3) Sign out from your WordPress website.
4) Go to your themeforest account, sign in and download the most recent Enfold version to your computer. Extract it and search for the file enfold.zip. Extract this file as well to already have your folder ready to be uploaded.
5) Sign in to FTP or SFTP using FileZilla or any other tool which is able to do that.
6) Go to the folder ./wp-content/themes and search for “enfold”. If you want, you can download the enfold folder to your computer as well (just in case you want to restore if afterwards which is easier like that than using the whole backup).
7) Delete the folder enfold via FTP. This may take 5-10min, depending on the server speed obviously.
8) Wait until it is finished and the enfold folder is gone. If that is the case, upload the “new” enfold folder to your website in the same directory.
9) Sign in to your WordPress website again and go to the Enfold tab (or the one from your child theme). Scroll down to the tab called Theme Update.
10) Your current API token will not work anymore as Envato changed some stuff on their API. Therefore you need to remove your current key and generate a new private key as visible in your themeforest account under “Settings” -> “API keys”. Go to https://build.envato.com and follow the steps there. To me, https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/how-to-install-enfold-theme/#toggle-id-5 was also very helpful (scroll down a bit there to find out about the permissions your private API key needs in order to check for future Enfold updates). Without these permissions it will not work.
11) After revalidating your new private key within the Enfold update tab, you should see a blue rectangle saying when it could be checked for the last time.
12) Done!
Feel free to ask me in case you need any assistance.
Rikard – It has solved itself. Since your minor Enfold update (installed today), the code is now searchable again, and I can replace it once again with the snippet I first showed you, and all is well…
It must have been omitted there for a while..?
Anyway, case closed :-)
Thanks again!
Hello siljerang,
same happend to me here. Victoria is trying hard to answer in a positive way but offers no solution in this topic. She did not test your form! Your contact form has problems within a sepcific constallation, checkboxes and letters. I wrote you an email back. I got my form working again, took me about 2.5 horus of research until I found the causing problem. It is most of the times a variable, not being validated by enfold. I really like enfold and the backend but support of difficult things you have to find out yourself. The design of the websites still look like 2017, this is very sad because the ALM Elements itself are a good solution.
SMTP is not causing the problem here!

Hi reliablecyber,
I apologize for the delayed response.
There are updates that need to happen, but they aren’t visible in the dashboard. You can only see them when you click on Updates at the top of the page.
– I have checked it and all is visible except one, which is the bundled layerslider. The plugin can’t be updated because it’s bundled and the only time it is updated is during the new release of Enfold.
The sub-menu items are not visible where they should be. For example, Listen In menu item should have a drop down with three sub-menu items. If you hover over Listen In you will see one of the sub-menu items under My Account in the top right covering the Shop menu item.
– this CSS code breaks it:
ul {
-webkit-column-count: 2; /* Chrome/Opera, Safari */
-moz-column-count: 2; /* Mozilla Firefox */
column-count: 2;
/* Properties below are optional: */
-webkit-column-gap: 50px; /* Chrome/Opera, Safari */
-moz-column-gap: 50px; /* Mozilla Firefox */
column-gap: 50px;
-webkit-column-rule: 1px single grey; /* Chrome/Opera, Safari */
-moz-column-rule: 1px single grey; /* Mozilla Firefox */
column-rule: 1px single grey;
}
remove it and you should see it working properly again.
I can’t get the menu centered. I’ve researched, found some suggestions in the forum, and put in code, but I can’t get it to work.
– Please try to add this CSS code:
.html_visible_cart.html_stretched.html_header_top.html_header_stretch .main_menu {
right: 0 !important;
}
The Slider on the Home page is fine except for one image, it’s not the right side. I deleted it and put it in again, but that didn’t work. I also duplicated one of the other slides and substituted the image for the one that is causing a problem and that didn’t work either.
I’m not really sure which image you’re referring, can you tell us which slide it is?
Best regards,
Nikko
Hi,
I have just put a revolution slider on the home page of my site but for some reason it has a large white space above and below it – margin or padding or something. I would like this space not to be there. I have searched high and low for a solution to this on the Enfold support and found a few things but none have yet solved my problem. Please can you help?
Thanks,
Jamie
Hi Genie692,
No worries about it :)
I’ll add a bit to it, before envato uses API key but now, you’ll be using tokens from Envato and you’ll need the following permission:
- View and search Envato sites (checked by default)
- View your Envato account username
- View your email address
- View your account profile details
- Download your purchased items
- Verify purchases of your item
- List purchases you’ve made
No need to check which one you’ll need to use because envato will verify it.
For further information please check: https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/theme-registration/

I am a user and programmer. I had this issue and solved it after long research. I did not get any working solution here. It is a bug within enfold occuring since the last update.I wrote the Autor of enfold but it seems to be a rar problem. Just get in touch with me, I can show you how to solve this. I had this problem on two of my sites. Both are working again.

Hi,
Cannot redeclare avia_masonry_entries_query_mod() (previously declared in wp-content/themes/enfold-child/functions.php:15)
This just means that you added the avia_masonry_entries_query_mod function twice. Please make sure to remove the previous function before adding it in the child theme’s functions.php file.
When I activate the child theme, it looks NOTHING like the parent theme.
You have to import the parent theme options after activating the child theme. Please check the documentation for more info.

I am also surprised that I am not offered the opportunity to update to 4.7.6.2. No idea why that might be – I purchased the theme.
Is this a familiar problem – I couldn’t find an exact equivalent using a forum search.
Hi there. A link added in private.
What you see here is EVERYTHING I am using. Nothing more.
I search for the first line of code within functions.php, and once found, replace it with the latter line of code (both in bold).
This was actually provided originally by someone at Enfold.
That code no longer works (on ANY masonry gallery), and I’m just hoping for a replacement snippet, or somethine else that will work.
Cheers,
Steve

Hi Enfold,
I’m searching in the topics and cannot figure out what I need to do to get what I want…
I have a text in H6. And I want more space between the letters (only in H6). Is it possible to do that in the quick CSS mode?
Please let me know.

Hi All,
Some more websites designed using Enfold launched over the past 2 weeks by Think Jarvis Design & Marketing.
Simply Needlecraft Haberdashery & Sewing Studio is an ecommerce store with over 1700 products all uploaded using CSV files to save time. The site has some unique modifications like adding a search bar with Ajax support to the header area rather than appending it to the main menu. I also added the category control plugin so that text can be added to product categories for SEO purposes.
Optimisation – Difficult to improve further given the weight of Woocommerce – Square payments plugin contains performance bugs which have not been fixed yet by the developers. Scaled images not yet implemented fully as update to latest enfold version needs a quick test before roll out.

Hi,
Sorry for the delay. Edit the themes\enfold\framework\php\class-breadcrumb.php and around line 544, try to remove the avia_backend_truncate function or this line.
if( ! is_search() )
{
$trail['trail_end'] = avia_backend_truncate( $trail['trail_end'], $truncate, " ", $pad="...", false, '<strong><em><span>', true );
}
This limit was added to prevent the breadcrumb and the main title from overlapping with each other.

Hello,
I am mostly new to this, so apologies for the list of questions. After trying to set up my own layout and struggling, I have based mine on Enfold Medical and followed the documentation. I have run into a few issues:
1) I have added a header widget as per the instructions. I have not been able to style it fully using the CSS provided, or the Advanced Styling function. Where I have entered code, it has not taken effect. I would like to a) increase the font size to 1.2em, b) change the colour to black, and c) align it left and vertically centred, so it is next to the logo. How can I do this please?
2) The header widget and flexbox code has reduced the size of our logo. How can I make it larger, please?
3) My search box is blue, and the search button is not visible. I have tried to use code from these forums, but the code was from 2014 and seems ineffective. How can I change the background to white, with black text, and a search icon visible, please?
4) When viewed on mobile, my partner logo strip seems staggered. How can I present them vertically centred, please?
5) When viewed on mobile, the boxes on my page hide the slider, and the header widget appears off screen. This occurs on the Enfold Medical theme example as well. How can I fix this?
I have included screenshots below. Thank you for your help.
Well a quick and dirty way would be to activate the main menu search icon ( Dashboard – Enfold Child – Main Menu: “Append search icon to main menu”)
– and shift this to your other menu:
function shift_search_icon(){
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
(function($){
$('#avia-menu').find('#menu-item-search').detach().appendTo('#menu-menu3');
})(jQuery);
</script>
<?php
}
add_action('wp_footer', 'shift_search_icon');
Hi Mike,
Thank you so much for checking it out.:)
I did some research and it looks like forms.m-pages.com/api/ is the form for the lead magnet on another page.
Am I correct to assume there is a conflict between Enfold and my email provider? And if so, how can I fix this?
I’ve created a staging site, deleted the form and checked the page on mobile. The accordion toggle works now, but like you said and I’ve noticed as well, the error seems random.
Could you look at the staging site to see if the error is still there? You can also test whatever you want there. Information in private content.
Sincerely,
Morticka
First of all I would like to say thank you for creating such a great theme. I googled and searched the forum and only turned up vague results.
Currently running enfold with the Avia layout builder but would like to integrate cartflows. It appears they list a bit of code here that they say enables enfold to work with their plugin:
https://cartflows.com/docs/enfold-avia-builder/
Tried adding it to my functions.php but got no result(not even an error as another user previously mentioned). Is there anyone that could shine some light on this issue?
Hope you are having a great day!
Joseph
Nevermind, I figured it out on my own. Probably could use some validation and cleaning up of the URL (in case there is extra formatting in the post content area), but here’s a solution for anyone else interested.
Open up functions-enfold.php in parent theme and copy the entire function that starts with:
if( ! function_exists( ‘avia_ajax_search’ ) )
Paste this function into your child theme’s functions.php file and then make this tiny modification:
replace this:
$link = apply_filters( 'av_custom_url', get_permalink( $post->ID ), $post );
with this:
$link = apply_filters( 'av_custom_url', get_permalink( $post->ID ), $post );
/* modify link to use the the actual URL specified within the content area for "LINK" post format */
if ( get_post_format( $post->ID ) == "link" ) {
$link = strip_shortcodes($post->post_content);
}
if anyone else has a more elegant solution, I’d love to hear it. I would prefer to not have to copy the entire avia_ajax_search function, but this works for now.
Hey Victoria,
I am a web developer. I would just need the information on the parameters I can use (and how they work) for the avf_ajax_search_query() function. Does this information exist somewhere? If this function is not capable of altering the permalink for a search result, would it work to copy (and alter) the avia_ajax_search function from the functions-enfold.php file in the parent theme and place in my child theme’s functions.php file?
Hi!
Added to next release:
If WP Option “Search engine visibility” is checked:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, nofollow" />
will be added (if theme option Meta tag “robots” is set to Use Enfold default settings).
Cheers!
Günter
