Installation problem

Hi! I wrote to support today and am waiting for a response to my problem, but in the meantime, I realized that I don't see the Sitekrafter section in my dashboard, as shown in your latest update video. The child theme is activated in the appearance section, but as I said, I can't see the Sitekrafter section. That's probably why I can't see the gray SK symbol in CSS Class either, and therefore can't create a pre-programmed CSS class, as I mentioned in my support request. Is there anything I can do to fix the problem?

Mak .

I responded to your ticket.

Alain Crevier

Augustine Mak  Thanks! I will see!

Augustine Mak I just purchased SiteKrafter Pro and I have the same issue.

Ernie Hi! Check your version of SiteKrafter, because when I checked mine, I realized I have 6.1.6... I requested the latest version, 7.2.5, and I'll see if, once I get it and install it, it solves the problem.

Alain Mine also shows as Version: 6.1.6. Support said to download the latest which I did and it too is Version: 6.1.6. Have you received the new version?

Alain Crevier

@ernieHi! Unfortunately, since last week, I've only had one response from MAK asking me which version I had, and I replied immediately, but since then there's been radio silence... I followed up with him to point out that version 6.1.6 was released last May, and since I purchased Sitekrafter only two weeks ago, it's not normal that I have such an old version on my download page. The problem may be that Mak seems to be managing everything on his own... and in my humble opinion, he should delegate someone to handle support. For now, I'm still waiting... I'll write directly to the community if he doesn't respond... You should do the same! Just a suggestion!

Ernie Finally, by going to the section to the left of \</> SiteKrafter, Mak posted a link for the latest update of the child theme and everything works...

Alain I got the latest update, but only seeing a Style Guide under Appearance and nowhere to edit the variable (like fonts, line-height, etc.). I certainly don't see a SiteKrafter link in the backend sidebar.

Mak .

Ernie I explained in the video that I removed the style guide under the appearance because it was causing security issues for many people so I removed it for now. As for the line-hieght etc, you dont have to add it manually because it's already set for you in the framework.

All the settings in the framework are settings that professional UI/UX designers use. All font sizes, spacing, components are all fluid and responsive, you dont have to make changes to them. All the values are defined in the variables and classes.

I will be doing a live show soon where we can do a Q&A

Augustine Mak Thanks for this reply. I'm wondering how to change things like the the font family, base font size, etc. I have designers I work with that want specific font, font sizes, etc. If you don't have an interface to change those, perhaps you can tell me what file I should change them in? I did use the slider in the style guide to change the primary color, but not seeing where that is maintained either. Thanks.

Ernie Hi Ernie. You can edit this in the file itself if you go to Appearance > Theme Editor, however I believe most people are using FluentSnippets to make this change so when you update SiteKrafter it doesn't overwrite your customizations.

Amy Starr Thanks. Do you have a snippet as an example? I assume I would use it to override style.css. Correct?

Amy Starr

Ernie I'm sorry, I don't. I have been waiting for SiteKrafter to be able to automatic update inside WordPress before I start using it.

Someone else in another thread suggested changing the font in the Customizer (Appearance > Customize) under General Settings > Typography. Give it a shot?

Amy Starr

Ernie SiteKrafter is changing so rapidly right now (lots of amazing improvements), hopefully there's someone here who has been keeping up and can be more helpful than me.
