As a multidisciplinary team, we experienced WordCamp Paris in quite different ways. The conference shaped our understanding regarding the WordPress ecosystem.

Making Style Changes Easier Using a Visual CSS Editor

Even though you use the same WordPress theme that already hosts a bunch of other websites across the world, this doesn’t mean you need to follow the same visual path. You can tune it on your personality and create a website that grabs the right kind of attention.  We suggest you play around with the theme’s […]

Find Your Learning Tempo

I had to experience three types of online courses (Grow Your Audience, Chimp Essentials and Storytelling for Influence) to understand which learning environment fits me best.

Can I display the privacy and cookie consent law banner on your theme?

All our WordPress themes give you room to display the banner for privacy and cookie consent law. You can either get it done directly from Jetpack’s setting and customize the widget banner or by installing UK Cookie Consent plugin or using a particular service such as Iubenda.

Why I can’t finish the Demo Data import?

If you are on this page, it already means that you’ve encountered some issues with the Demo Data Import. The most common is the timeout issue which is caused by a low-value set to the upload_max_file_size and post_max_size directives. Here’s what you’ll have to do in case you have access to the php.ini file. Find this line in the php.ini file “upload_max_filesize = 2M” (or other value) […]

How to Display the Child Pages outside the Parent Theme?

We’ve been talking with a couple of customers using Rosa, and they pointed out that it’s better not to have the content of child pages available in two different places: self-page and inside the parent. That’s why, a few versions back, we changed the structure of the theme, and the child pages were displayed inside […]

How to Choose the Right Size for the Parallax Images?

All our WordPress themes are responsive and are adjusting their elements depending on the size of the browser, which means the background image is set to cover the hero area.  This implies that the image will zoom in on smaller screens (e.g., mobile or tablet) to avoid showing a blank space like in this example […]

Having different menus on different pages

There are many instances when you need different menus on different pages. For example, you might have a one-page website but want a dedicated shop or contact page. In this case, the navigation links from the top menu are unusable on those separate pages (e.g., contact or shop) since they are set to guide users […]
