Hi Guys
I just did a clean install of wordpress and installed / upgraded to vantage premium and look for information about the following changes made since installation/upgrade to vantage premium: installed and activated akismet, metaslider and page builder, changed front page to static)
========================
ISSUES
========================
1. Homepage:
1.1 Where/How is the slider at top of the homepage created and where can/should I edit it?
(it does not show in visual/text/pagebuilder when I try to edit that page – notice: I have MetaSLider installed and enabled, where I also don’t find any slider)
1.2 How to fix left/right arrow navigation on build-in slider?
(The navigation elements (left/right arrows) of the slider mentioned above only display correctly in firefox (latest) but seem to get rendered wrong on safari (latest) and chrome (latest.)
2. Sample Page
2.1 When editing the sample page it seems that page builder does not reflect its actual design but only shows a one col page/section. Whats wrong?
2.2 If I change the associated template from “default template” to ANY other and hit preview, the preview shows anything but whats expected (pls try on your sit as well to see what I mea – and by the way: regardless of if I change any associated site and just hit preview, that preview is very weird…)
3. General
3.1 Where are related templates stored and how can I modify them? (i.e.: look & feel of blog page or full width page)
3.2

REQUESTS
========================
–> Circle Image Widget:
— please add color picker or link to color palette in use(!)
— please allow separate setting for color of icon and background
— please allow enabling borders
— please state related css style (maybe with ? hover that display default settings) to allow making custom changes / additions more fast (without need to look it up manually)
— please allow to choose hover effect (and if enabled: related colors with color picker)
–> Social Buttons:
— please add social icon for www.xing.de (which is something like linked in and heavily used in europe)
— please allow adjusting location (left/right/center AS WELL AS entering px values for location and margins)
— please allow custom text on hover
— please allow users to choose a default color (hover color should then be the related services default color)
–> Footer
— Please add option to make the footer “scrolling”
–> Accessabillity
— How can accessibility be served better for example by allowing screen reader text for specific elements (text, navigation items, …)?
–> Menu
How can I avoid certain menu/navigation entries show on certain screens (i.e.
Hi Frank
Thanks for running Vantage.
1. Find our home page slider tutorial here: https://siteorigin.com/vantage-documentation/getting-started/slider/. The demo slider isn’t editable.
2. Re-look at this once you’ve setup your own slider. If you run into browser compatibility issues with a Meta Slider theme it would be best to drop them a line on their WordPress.org plugin support page.
3. All blog related settings can be accessed from Appearance > Theme Settings > Blog. Visual aspects of the theme can be accessed from Appearance >Customize.

Thanks for your feedback. If you’d like to try an alternative Circle Icon widget, try the Features Widget in our Widget Bundle plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/so-widgets-bundle/
There are a few accessibility related items already included in the theme, it’s based on underscores which includes a few like screen reader text for menus etc. That said Vantage isn’t specifically an accessibility ready template as defined by WordPress.org.
It’s unfortunately not possible to specify menu items per resolution. You can choose at what point the mobile menu kicks in from Appearance > Theme Settings > Navigation.
