WenSolutions: First, I want to add an “About Us” section. If I use your prebuilt “About Us” section, I realize I would first need to create a page that had the text I wanted to use, which I know how to do, but the prebuilt section doesn’t allow as much text as I need. Is there a way I could include more text (50-100 words) in your “About Us” section, than it currently allows?
My second question is how best to add a Contact Us form. I assume I would need to add a Contact Us form plugin. Would it be possible for me to link the “Read More” button in the “About Us” section to a “Contact Us” page?
Thank you.
DavidApril 14, 2020 at 6:48 am #120858wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Regarding your queries, to add 50-100 text in ‘about us’ section and to add custom link in the ‘Read More’ button is not the feature that is offered by the free theme.
As much as we would love to help our users, we are unable to do so as it requires hiring code customization.
So you can consider hiring a freelancer or our professional developer.
If you have further queries, let us know.
Regards.
April 14, 2020 at 12:19 pm #120888bassinlaParticipantFrom your reply, I’m not sure whether these two features would be available if I had the Pro version? Please clarify that. Is it possible for me to get a quote of what it would cost to have your pro developer make these changes?
Thank you.
DavidApril 15, 2020 at 3:22 am #120916wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
The Pro theme offers the feature to make a link in the ‘Read More’ button as per you assign page/post/category as shown in the screenshot below:
Also, regarding your query, we have got features like the screenshot below in the about us section.
For the hiring customizer, you can go to the following link to get more details:

Hope this helps.
If you have further queries, let us know.

April 15, 2020 at 7:57 pm #120986bassinlaParticipantThanks for the screenshots. I can’t quite tell whether going to Pro would provide the solutions I’m looking for, but it doesn’t look like it.
Can I remove the Sidebars from the About Us and Call To Action pages?
Now, the About Us and Call To Action pages show up first and second below the slider, and both above the homepage. Can the Call To Action page be moved below my homepage?
Can I increase the number of words that show in the About Us section, before the “More” button has to be pushed?
Thanks.
DavidApril 16, 2020 at 8:16 am #121016wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Please find answers to your queries below:
Query 1. Can I remove the Sidebars from the About Us and Call To Action pages?
Response: Yes you can remove the slider from any page by directly going to Admin Panel > Page(you want to remove the slider) and choose the layout from the individual page(edited).
Query 2. Now, the About Us and Call To Action pages show up first and second below the slider, and both above the homepage. Can the Call To Action page be moved below my homepage?
Response: Yes, you have option to move the section(homepage sortable) as per your requirement in Pro version of the theme.
Query 3. Can I increase the number of words that show in the About Us section, before the “More” button has to be pushed?
Response: The pro version of the theme offers you with features as the screenshot below in the about us section:
Hope this helps.

April 16, 2020 at 5:12 pm #121063bassinlaParticipantI purchased Pro. When I activated it most of my old setting disappeared and I have to rebuild the site. That’s a big disappointment. Is there any way to avoid that? Most premium themes transfer over the old settings flawlessly.
DavidApril 16, 2020 at 7:30 pm #121072bassinlaParticipantI have rebuilt by free theme site onto the Pro. I think I have only one question. When I enable the About Us and Call To Action sections, the title of the page appears, and a subtitle of the location below it. Is there a way for me to remove those sets of titles?
Thank you.
DavidApril 17, 2020 at 12:21 am #121081wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Regarding your query, you have to create a child theme while making changes in the theme otherwise while in every theme updates, you will lose the changes you have made so we don’t recommend our users to make changes in the parent theme. So you can refer to the below-given documentation link to be more clear on how to create child theme.

Also, to remove the subtitle of the about us and call to action section, you can easily remove the text from the customizing section like in the screenshot below.

https://prnt.sc/s0xmrpFurther, to remove the title of ‘about us’ and ‘call to action’ section, you can add below given CSS following the path Admin Panel > Appearance > Additional CSS.
.home .has-post-thumbnail .entry-container .section-title{ display: none; } .home #call-to-action .section-title{ display: none; }
Hope this helps.
If you have further queries, let us know.
Thank you.
April 17, 2020 at 12:51 pm #121140bassinlaParticipantInstead of using the About Us and Call To Action sections, I ended up creating a menu to navigate to two pages, one called About Us, the other Contact Us. When you navigate to those pages the opening screen has the main title, and a sub title (like Home/About Us. Is there a way to hide each of those?
Thanks.
DavidApril 20, 2020 at 12:01 am #121287wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Regarding your query, please provide us with your site URL so that we can inspect further and help you provide precise fix.
Also, please provide us with the screenshot of the section by marking the titles you want to remove.
Regards.
April 20, 2020 at 7:36 pm #121364bassinlaParticipantIt’s the same url we have been discussing since the beginning of this chain: TheJazzSalon.com.
If you select “About Us” from the menu, you will see this: https://prnt.sc/s2zady
I want to keep the title “About Us”, but delete the sub title “Home / About Us”
Thank you.
DavidApril 21, 2020 at 12:19 am #121370wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Regarding your query, you can add CSS following the path Admin Panel > Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS to remove the breadcrumb below the title.
.page #breadcrumb-list .breadcrumbs{ display: none; }
Hope this helps.
If you have further queries, let us know.
Thank you.
April 22, 2020 at 12:26 pm #121524bassinlaParticipantI didn’t realize those were called “Breadcrumbs”. Instead of using the CSS code you provided, I just disabled Breadcrumbs in Customization. That seemed to solve the problem. Does that get the same result as using the CSS code?
Thanks.
DavidApril 23, 2020 at 4:43 am #121570wensolutionsKeymasterHello,
Glad you found the work around.
Regards.
