Welcome to Bridge - Retina Multi-Purpose WordPress Theme

### 1. Getting Started

#### Installing Bridge

Once you've downloaded the installation file on ThemeForest, extract it and locate a file called Bridge.zip. You can install the theme by using one of two installation methods:

1. WordPress upload - This is probably the simplest way for most users. Here are the steps you need to take:
   1. Login to WordPress admin
   2. Go to admin panel > Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme
   3. Click on "Choose File" and select Bridge.zip
   4. Click on "Install Now"
2. FTP upload - If you wish to install via FTP, here are the steps you need to take:
   1. Using FTP client, login to the server where your WordPress website is hosted
   2. Using FTP client, navigate to the /wp-content/themes/ directory under your WordPress website's root directory
   3. Using FTP client, upload the Bridge directory to themes directory on remote server

Once installation is complete, your Bridge theme will be ready to use. You should now see "Qode Options" appear in the WordPress admin panel.

You should also see a notification at the top of the screen that required plugins need to be installed. Please install and activate all of the required plugins, since they are necessary for the theme to function properly.

Great - you can now start building your site!

Important notice: Starting from the Bridge update 18.0, please make sure to install the "Bridge Core" plugin, since this plugin is of critical importance for proper theme functioning. This plugin includes core theme functionalities and custom post types that come with the theme (Portfolio, Testimonials, etc.), and without this plugin you will not be able to create any of these custom post types or the elements in the theme that require them. To achieve this, either navigate to Plugins > Installed Plugins, and activate the “Bridge Core”, or alternatively go to Appearance > Install Plugins, and install and activate the “Bridge Core” from there. Additionally, after installing future Bridge theme updates, the “Bridge Core” plugin may require manual updating, which you can perform by locating the plugin in Plugins > Installed Plugins.

If writing permissions aren't set for folders containing CSS and JS files on your server you will see a warning message at the top of theme options page. In order to remove that message, you need to change permissions for wp-content/themes/bridge/css and wp-content/themes/bridge/js folders and set them to 755. We recommend setting writing permissions in order to optimize your site performance. If you have any issues with this, please contact your hosting service provider. Alternatively, you can submit a ticket to https://helpcenter.qodeinteractive.com/ with FTP access fo your site, and we will take a look at it.

#### Theme Activation and Registration

In order to activate your copy of Bridge, you should input your purchase code and email address, and thus effectively register the theme. To do this, please navigate to Bridge Dashboard > Bridge Dashboard and input the required information there.

You can obtain your purchase code by following these steps:

- Log into your Envato Market account.
- Hover the mouse over your username at the top of the screen.
- Click ‘Downloads’ from the drop-down menu.`
- Click ‘License certificate & purchase code’ (available as PDF or text file).

Note that you are not required to separately register any of the plugins which came bundled with the theme.

Please note that if you used your purchase code on one installation, you are required to Deregister in order to use the purchase code on a different installation.

You should also make sure to activate and register your copy of the theme before proceeding to the demo import process.

It is also a good practice to refer to the System Info section to see if your server resources match the theme requrements. Navigate to Bridge Dashboard > System Info and there you will find a general overview of your server configuration, as well as the theme information and an overview of all the active plugins. In System Information any parameters that do not meet the theme requirements will be shown in red, and you can also see the recommended values that you should set next to them. If you are unsure how to adjust the server resources, you can ask your hosting provider to perform this for you.

#### Importing Demo Content

With the Bridge theme, you have the option to either start creating your site from scratch, or choosing to import one of the included demo sites to use as a starting point, and then modifying it to suit your needs. In this section we will explain how to do the latter.

If you plan on building an online shop with Bridge, you should install the WooCommerce plugin before importing the demo content. For more information on how to install WooCommerce, please read the WooCommerce section of this User Guide.
If you plan on using contact forms on your website, you should instal the Contact Form 7 plugin before importing the demo content so you recieve all the contact forms from our demo site. For more information on how to install Contact Form 7, please read the Contact Form 7 section of this User Guide.

Bridge comes with a one-click import module. To import one of the included demo sites, please follow these steps:

1. Login to your WordPress admin panel
2. Navigate to Bridge Dashboard > Import
3. From the Import dropdown menu, choose the demo site that you would like to import. Note that you can look up demos by typing in a keyword in the top left, and filter demos by various categories.
4. From the Import Type dropdown menu, choose what type of content you'd like to import:
   1. All - imports pages, content, widgets, and settings. We recommend this for users who would like to import a demo site exactly as it appears on our live demo.
   2. Content - imports only pages and their content. This option is recommended for users who would like to see how we've created our page layouts, but who want to keep their own settings in Bridge Core Options.
   3. Widgets - imports only widgets. This option is recommended for users who would only like to populate the theme’s widget areas with the widgets from their chosen demo. No other content is imported.
   4. Options - imports settings in Bridge Core Options only. This option is recommended for users who would like to achieve the same look and feel of their chosen demo site, but do not want to import any additional content.
5. If you also wish to import media files (images, videos, sounds), make sure to set the Import attachments option to "Yes".
6. Click on the Import button and wait for the import process to finish.

Please note that the images we use on our demo sites are copyrighted, and if you'd like to publish them on your site, you would need to purchase them separately. We bought most of our images on Shutterstock.

Note that Bridge also lets you use the Gutenberg plugin in tandem with our Qi Blocks for Gutenberg plugin. When importing the demo content, you can select demos built using the Qi Blocks for Gutenberg. For more information on all the blocks and options you get with this plugin, check out the Qi Blocks documentation.

The theme also is fully compatible with the Qi Addons for Elementor plugin, designed to take your Elementor-powered website making potential to new highs.

If you wish to import the LayerSlider demo slider, you need to locate the xml export folder in the previously downloaded package from ThemeForest. Inside, you'll find the LayerSlider_Export.zip file. Next, go to LayerSlider from the WordPress admin panel and upload this file under the Import section.

#### Installing Woocommerce

If you plan on building an online shop with Bridge, please read the WooCommerce section of this user guide before importing the demo content.

#### Installing Contact Form 7

If you plan on using contact forms on your website, you should instal the Contact Form 7 plugin before importing the demo content so you recieve the contact forms from your chosen demo site. For more information on how to install Contact Form 7, please read the Contact Form 7 section of this user guide.

#### Important for Listing Websites - Installing WP Job Manager

If you plan on building a listing website with Bridge, please make sure to install the free WP Job Manager plugin before importing the demo content. You can install this plugin by navigating to Plugins from your WordPress dashboard, clicking on the Add New button at the top of the Plugin page, and then searching for the WP Job Manager plugin in the search field to the right of your screen.

After WP Job Manager has been installed, it needs to be configured. Plese refer to the following screenshot:

Please note that some of our listing demos might use the Regions for WP Job Manager plugin. This plugin is also free and can be installed the same way as the WP Job Manager Plugin (described above).

The WP Job Manager plugin offers a variety of paid addons for additional functionalities which users can purchase seperately. Unfortunately, these addons could not be included in our theme, because they are sold outside of the Envato market. In order to ensure you have all the functionalities visible in our Listing demos, we suggest purchasing the WP Job Manager - Job Tags and WP Job Manager - WooCommerce Paid Listings plugins.

With all of these plugins activated, you should configure the WP Job Manager plugin before you import demo content. Please refer to the screenshot below to see how the plugin needs to be configured:

Because these plugins are not included in the Bridge theme package, the demo import won't set images for them. So, for example, you will have to set featured images for regions manually after you import the demo content:

#### Updating Bridge

##### Auto-Update Feature

You can now enable the Auto-Updating feature for Bridge. To do this, please first make sure that you have the Envato WordPress Toolkit plugin installed. If you haven't already installed this plugin, you should see a notification on the top of your Dashboard stating that some required plugins haven't been installed or activated. Install and activate all of the required plugins, including the Envato WordPress Toolkit.

After you have installed and activated the Envato WordPress Toolkit, please go to Envato Toolkit from your dashboard and enter your Marketplace Username and API Key. You can find your API Key by logging into your profile on Themeforest and navigating to Profile > Settings > API Keys.

When you have entered your Marketplace Username and API Key and clicked Save Settings, a new tab will appear at the top of the screen named "Themes". Click on this tab to see all the themes you have purchased. If there is an update available for a theme, you will be notified here. To update your theme, just click on the "Update Automatically" link.

Please note that each time you use the Auto-Update feature to update the theme, a backup file of the old version of the theme will be stored on your server in ".../wp-content/envato-backups".

##### Manual Update

You can update your theme manually by performing the following steps:

1. Download the latest theme zip file from ThemeForest
2. Extract it and locate bridge.zip
3. Extract bridge.zip and locate the bridge folder
4. Copy/Replace content of the bridge folder to the /wp-content/themes/bridge folder of your web site.

#### Important F.A.Q.

##### 1. Why can't I save my menu?

WordPress by default has a limited number of menu items. When you import our demo site, which contains a lot of menu items, you might not be able to save changes you make to a menu. You can fix this problem by contacting your hosting and asking them to add the following lines to php.ini file:

    suhosin.post.max_vars = 5000
    suhosin.request.max_vars = 5000

##### 2. Why is there a smiley displayed on blank pages?

This problem is most likely related to JetPack and memory settings of your hosting. You can either disable JetPack or read what the JetPack developer wrote: Regarding the memory limit, please refer to the WordPress Codex section concerning this problem. Some sites that load many plugins alongside WordPress ultimately require a higher memory limit than WordPress defaults to, but since this is limited to specific hosts and configurations, it must be dealt with on an individual basis. You'll find the Codex article at: https://codex.wordpress.org/Common_WordPress_Errors#Allowed_memory_size_exhausted

##### 3. How do I optimize my site?

Please use this tool to investigate reasons for slow loading: https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?hl=en

##### 4. How to translate or rename default theme labels?

You can use the Codestyling localization plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/codestyling-localization/) to translate/rename all the theme's labels. Another solution is to edit the Theme folder/languages/en_US.po file directly in editor and manually edit labels you want to translate.

##### 5. Why do I see a white screen when importing demo content?

If you get a white screen or some other error when trying to import our demo content, this probably happens because of the maximum execution time limit. You need to increase the maximum execution time (upload time) setting of your web server. The default maximum execution time on web servers is 30 seconds. Please increase it to 120 seconds. Possible ways of achieving this are:

- By Wp-config.php changes - set_time_limit(120);
- In htaccess - php_value max_execution_time 120;
- In php.ini file - max_execution_time = 120

Ask your hosting provider to take care of this for you.

### 2. Using Bridge

Once you've installed Bridge, you can start building your site.

#### Setting Up the Header

One of the first things you might want to do is to set up the header area. This section contains the logo, menu, search bar, side area icon, and other optional widgets.

To set it up, go to Qode Options > Header from the admin panel. The settings you define here will be the default settings for all pages on your site. If you need help with any of the options, please refer to Qode Options in this user guide. Some options, such as the header skin and background color, can be overridden on the page level by going into the page's backend. For more information on how local page settings work, see Pages.

#### Uploading Your Logo

Now let's add a logo. Go to Qode Options > Logo from the admin panel and click the upload button next to the "Logo Image - normal" field. You should now have a visible logo in your header area.

#### Menu Creation

To create a menu, go to Appearance > Menus from the admin panel. Click on "Create a new menu." Enter a name for your menu, and then click on "Create Menu".

Every page that you've created up until now will be listed in the section on the left called Pages. Simply check the ones that you want added to the menu, and then click on the "Add to Menu" button. Once added, you can click and drag the menu items to rearrange them, or nest them one under the other.

Underneath the menu items, under the section Menu Settings, check "Top Navigation" and click "Save Menu" in order to activate the menu you've just created. You should now have a functional menu on your pages.

#### Footer

Now let's set up the footer by going to Qode Options > Footer from the admin panel.

The settings you define here will be the default settings for all pages on your site. Make sure that Show Footer Top and Show Footer Bottom are enabled. If you need help with any of the options here, please refer to Qode Options in this user guide.

To add content to your footer, you need to activate widgets by going to Appearance > Widgets from the admin panel. On the right side of your page are widget areas for the footer, named Footer Column 1, Footer Column 2, Footer Column 3, and Footer Column 4. On the left side of your page are the available widgets. Simply drag the widget you'd like to one of the Footer Column widget areas on the right.

To add content to the footer bottom, add widgets to one of the Footer Bottom widget areas.

#### General Look and Feel

Finally, let's set up the general look and feel of your site. If you'd like to keep the fonts and colors you see on the Bridge demo site, then you do not need to do anything more. Otherwise, go to Qode Options > General. Under Design Style, choose a default font family for your site, as well as the default content background color.

Now that you've set up some basic elements, you're ready to begin building your pages.

#### Building Pages

To create a new page, go to Pages > Add New from the admin panel. Enter a title for your page in the text field near the top of your screen. Then choose the "Full Width" template for your page in the section on the right called Page Attributes. This will allow you to have sections on your page that go across full width of the screen.

At the bottom section of your screen are local page settings. Any settings you define here will override the global settings you've set in Qode Options. It is generally a good practice to set up the look of your pages on a global level, and then override settings on a local level, if necessary. This will save you a lot of time, unlike if you were to set up every page locally.

Now let's start adding elements to your page. Make sure that you're in the backend editor. If the blue button on the top left says BACKEND EDITOR, click it to enable the Visual Composer. Once you're in backend, the button will say CLASSIC MODE. You can now click on "Add Element" and start building your page. You can read more about elements in the Custom Shortcodes section of this user guide.

Finally, click the "Publish" button in the upper right section of the page. (If you made some changes on already published page, "Update" button will appear.

#### Additional Notes

##### Font Icon Packs

Please note that Bridge comes with two font icon packs: Font Awesome and Font Elegant. You can see an overview of all the available icons in both of these icon packs at the following links:

1. Font Awesome: https://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/

You can either link from Youtube or Vimeo, or alternatively, host your own videos. If self-hosting, you need to upload the video files to the Media Section and then enter the path to the video files in the corresponding fields. We recommend uploading videos in all 3 formats, in order to cover all modern browsers. Under Video image you can upload a background image that will be visible while the video loads.

- Audio - a field called Audio post format will unfold at the bottom section of the page. Here you can enter the path to the audio file that you have previously uploaded to the Media Section.

#### Now it's time to categorize this post.

1. Under Format, in the section called Categories, select the categories that you wish to add this post to. Alternatively, if you'd like to create a new category, click on "+ Add New Category." A text field will unfold where you can enter a name for the category.
2. Then click on "Add New Category".
3. Once you've checked the categories where you want this post to go to, click the "Publish button".

#### General

This section allows you to set up general settings for your site that will affect its look and functionality. The Design Style section has options for setting fonts, colors, and layout.

##### Google Maps

- Google Maps API Key - Insert your Google Maps API key here. You can find instructions on how to create a Google Maps API key here.

#### Logo

This is where you can upload your website logos. If your pages use different header styles, you might want different logos to be displayed in different circumstances. In addition, if using a sticky header, you might want a simplified version of your logo to appear on the sticky. This is the place where you can upload and manage all your logo images.

##### Sizing

The logos displayed on your page are limited in size by header height. For example, if your logo is 100 pixels in height and your header is 90 pixels high, the logo will slightly shrink in size in order to fit into the header area. The same principle applies to logos that appear on sticky; they are limited by sticky section height.

##### Retina

To make your logos retina ready, upload ones that are twice as high as the header. For example, a header of 90 pixels in height would require a logo that's 180 pixels high. This principle applies to all logos you upload.

Note that you can set your own header and sticky section heights by going to Qode Options > Header.

- Logo Image - normal - This logo is used when no header skin is chosen. We recommend not choosing a header skin in cases where you want to fully customize the header with your own colors. You might want to decide on the look of your header before choosing a logo to upload here.
- Logo Image - Light - This logo is used when "Light" header skin is chosen. A Light header skin has white navigation text and is typically used on dark header backgrounds. A lightly colored logo is appropriate here, in order to be clearly visible on such background. For more information on header skins, see Header.
- Logo Image - Dark - This logo is used when "Dark" header skin is chosen. A Dark header skin has black navigation text and is typically used on light header backgrounds. A darkly colored logo is appropriate here, in order to be clearly visible on such background. For more information on header skins, see Header.
- Logo Image - Sticky Header - This applies when you're using the Sticky or Sticky Expanded header type. It's the logo viewers see once they scroll down and the sticky section appears. It's typically a smaller version of the original logo.
- Logo Image - Fixed Advanced - This applies when using the Fixed Advanced header type. This is the logo viewers see once they scroll down and the fixed section appears. It's typically a smaller version of the original logo.
- Logo Image - Mobile Header - This applies in the Mobile Header. This is the logo the viewer sees when viewing the theme from a mobile device or smaller screen (under 1000px width).
- Logo Image - Side Menu Area Bottom - This logo is displayed at the bottom of the side menu area when the “initially hidden” side menu area type is selected.

#### Header

This section allows you to set up the header area. The first choice to make is whether you'd like to have a top menu or left menu navigation. You can then optionally enable a search bar, side area, header top area, and/or fullscreen menu. Each of these can be customized with text styles, colors, and content alignment.

Furthermore, each hierarchy level in menus can separately be customized. For example, if a menu contains About > Our Staff > John Doe, then About is considered 1st level, Our Staff is 2nd level, and John Doe is 3rd level.

##### Header Position

Switch to Left Menu - Choose "Yes" if you want to use a left menu for main navigation. This menu stays fixed in place and will not scroll when viewers scroll down the page.

- Left Menu Area Type - There are 2 types to choose from: the left menu can always be open, or it can initially be hidden and open once viewers click on the button.
  - Enable transparent left menu area - Applies when the Always Opened type is chosen. This option makes the left menu background transparent upon page load. Once viewers start scrolling down, the transparency fades and the background comes into view again. This feature is useful if you have a slider or image at the top of your page and don't want the menu background to obstruct it.
  - Button Color - Applies when the Initially Hidden type is chosen. Here you can choose a color for the button that opens and closes the hidden menu.
  - Button Margin Top - Set a top margin for the Left Menu button. Applies when the Initially Hidden type is chosen.

- Submenu Opening Style - Specify the opening style for the 2nd and 3rd level menu items. The 2nd and 3rd level menu items can open when the user hovers over a 1st level menu item, when a user clicks on a 1st level menu item, or they can be set to slide in when the 1st level menu item is clicked.
- Vertically Center Content - Set this option to "Yes" if you would like the content in the left menu to be vertically centered.
- Left Menu Area Background Color - Choose a color to be applied to the left menu background.
- Dropdown Background Color - Set a background color for the dropdown menu when "Submenu Opening Style" is set to "Float In".
- Dropdown Alignment - Set the alignment for the dropdown menu when "Submenu Opening Style" is set to "Float In".
- Left Menu Area Background Image - If you want to use an image for the left menu background, upload it here. This image will automatically be fitted to cover the entire menu area. If your image is smaller than the menu area, it will get stretched out. A larger image will get shrunk. For optimal viewing, we recommend that your image is the same width as the left menu area and is 1080 pixels high. The background image will stay fixed on the page and will not move as viewers scroll down.
- Left Menu Area Text Color (for Widgets) - Choose a color for widgets (such as social icons) that appear in the left menu area.
- Content Alignment - Choose from left, centered, or right alignment for content in the left menu area.
- 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Level Menu Style - Define text styles for all hierarchy levels that appear in the left menu. Each level can be custom styled and you can choose text color, hover color, font family, font size, line height, font style, and font weight.

##### Header

- Header in Grid - Choose "Yes" if you want your header content to be fitted in a centrally positioned fixed grid. Otherwise, it will stretch across full width of the page.
- Header Type - Choose your header type from one of the following:
  - Regular - This is a standard header that stays on top of the page. When viewers scroll down, it goes out of view. By default, the logo is aligned left and navigation text is aligned right, both elements in line. This a good choice if you want a simple look for your site.
  - Fixed - This header stays fixed on top of the page when viewers scroll. By default, the logo is aligned left and navigation text is aligned right, both elements in line. This is a good choice if you want your viewers to have access to top navigation at all times.
  - Fixed Minimal - This header stays fixed on top of the page when viewers scroll. The logo is displayed in the center, the full screen menu icon to the left, and the search icon to the right (please note that when using this header only the fullscreen menu is available, and both the fullscreen menu and the search need to be turned on in Qode Options > Header). When this header is enabled, the Header Bottom Right Widget Area and Side Area are disabled and can't be used. This header is a good choice if you want a minimalistic header.
  - Fixed Advanced - This header stays fixed on top of the page when viewers scroll. But unlike the Fixed header, only the logo is visible after scroll. The menu is hidden and appears on hover. By default, the logo is above navigation text and both elements are centered. This is a good choice for sites with a grid layout.
  - Fixed Header Top - Only the Header Top stays fixed to the top of the page when users scroll. The logo is displayed in the Header Bottom in center position, while the menu is displayed in the Header Top, along with the Search and Side Area buttons. There is also a Header Bottom Center widget area which displays its content beneath the logo. The Full Screen Menu is disabled when this header type is chosen, and only the "Search Covers Header" search type is available. This header is a good choice if you would like viewers to only have access to the site navigation when they scroll, without a logo and widgets being displayed around it. It can also be used if you would like a fixed menu on mobile devices.
  - Sticky - This header is initially on top of the page and goes out of view when viewers scroll. It then reappears and stays sticky on top after a certain amount of scroll. By default, the logo is aligned left and navigation text is aligned right, both elements in line. This is similar to the fixed header, and is a good choice if you have content at the top of your pages which you don't want to obstruct by a fixed header.
  - Sticky Expanded - The difference between this header type and the Sticky header is that here, the logo is above navigation text and both elements are aligned left by default. When the sticky header appears, the logo is aligned left and navigation text is aligned right, both elements in line. Since this was a common layout in earlier days of web design, this is a good choice if you want an old-school look.
  - Sticky Divided - The difference between this header type and the Sticky header is that here, the logo is centrally positioned and has menu navigation text on both sides of it. When the sticky header appears, the logo is gone and only the menu stays sticky on top. This is a good choice for sites that have layout in grid.

When creating a new page, one of the first things you might want to do is to assign an appropriate template for it. To do this, go inside the page backend and locate the section on the right called Page Attributes. Bridge comes with a variety of templates to choose from:

- Default Template - Choose this one if you wish to create a standard page with a boxed layout.
- Blog Chequered
- Blog Compound
- Blog Gallery
- Blog Headlines
- Blog Large Image
- Blog Large Image SImple
- Blog Large Image Whole Post
- Blog Large Image With Dividers
- Blog Masonry
- Blog Masonry - Date in Image

- Blog Small Image
- Blog Vertical Loop - These templates are all meant for displaying blog posts.

Now that you've chosen a template, let's go over the custom fields.

Please note that any settings you save here will override the global settings you've set in Qode Options. It is generally a good practice to set up the look of your pages on a global level, and then override settings on a local level, if necessary.

This will save you a lot of time, unlike if you were to set up every page locally.

Alternatively, if you'd like to create a new slider, click on "+ Add New Slider." A text field will unfold where you can enter a name for the slider. Then click on Add New Slider.

In the section underneath, called Attributes, you can type in the order in which you'd like this slide to appear in the slider. For example, enter "1" if you want this slide to be the first one to appear.

Once done, click the "Publish" button.

#### Using Your Slider

Finally, to display your slider on a page, copy its generated shortcode string and paste in into the appropriate custom field in the page backend. You can find the shortcode string by navigating to Qode Slider > Sliders from the admin panel. In the page backend, under Qode General, there's a field called "Layer Slider or Qode Slider Shortcode." Paste your shortcode here.

It should look something like this:

    [qode_slider slider='home-slider' auto_start='true' animation_type='slide' slide_animation='6000' height='' responsive_height='yes' background_color='' anchor='']

You can modify some sections of this code in order to achieve different effects.

- slider - this is the slider's slug. You can enter a different slug in order to change the slider you're using.
- auto_start - this controls whether slide transition starts automatically upon page load. Possible values are 'true' and 'false'.
- animation_type - this is the slide transition style. Possible values are 'slide', 'fade', 'slide-vertical-up', 'slide-vertical-down', and 'slide-cover.'
- slide_animation - this is the time between slide transitions, in milliseconds.
- height - you can set a height for the slider in pixels. For example, height='500', will set the slider height to 500px. If you don't enter anything, the slider will be full screen.
- responsive_height - possible values are 'yes' and 'no'. This will take effect only if you've entered a value for 'height.'
- anchor - if you wish to link to this slider, you'll need to have an anchor to link to. Enter your anchor name here, in lowercase letters. For example, anchor='slider'.
- responsive_breakpoints - Chose the breakpoint set you would like to use in the Qode Slider for advanced responsiveness (described below). This attribute takes the values “set1”, or “set2”

#### Finishing Touches

You can further edit your slider by going to Qode Slider > Sliders from the admin panel and clicking on your slider of choice.

- Effect on header (dark/light style) - If your slider contains slides with predefined header styles, you need to enable this option in order for it to take effect. Note that you can combine slides that use dark and light header styles - the header will change accordingly.
- Parallax effect - You can enable or disable the parallax effect on your slider.
- Advanced Responsiveness - If you set this option to "Yes" you will be able to define your own responsiveness settings for the slider (explained below). Please note that if you set this option to "Yes" improved logic for the responsiveness of the slider will be applied.

Breakpoint Coefficients and Breakpoint Sets

The Qode Slider provides two sets of breakpoints which you can choose from. You can view these breakpoint sets by going to Qode Slider > Sliders where all the breakpoints and default coefficients are listed, and you can choose which set you would like to use by changing the value of the “responsive_breakpoints” attribute in the slider shortcode (this attribute takes the values “set1”, or “set2”).
After you have chosen which set of breakpoints you would like to use, you can then set breakpoint coefficients for each element in the slider which contains some text (Title, Subtitle, Text, and Button). These breakpoint coefficients control the responsiveness of the text in your slider. The breakpoint coefficient can be any number between 0 and 1 (1 meaning that the text stays in its originally set size).
The size of the text is calculated by taking the original text size you set, and multiplying it with the coefficient. The result will be rounded to the nearest whole number and this will become your new text size.
For example, if you set your slider text size to 12px and are using the first set of breakpoints (set1) and the default coefficient values, then your text will stay at 12px inside the first two breakpoints (which have a default coefficient of 1, so 12 x 1 = 12). At the third breakpoint (between 1200px and 900px, according to set1), your text will shrink to 10px since the default coefficient is 0.8 (12 x 0.8 = 9.6, which is rounded to 10), at the fourth breakpoint (between 900px and 650px, according to set1), your text will shrink to 8px since the default coefficient is 0.7 (12 x 0.7 = 8.4, which is rounded to 8), etc.

In this section of the User Guide, we will discuss how to create Listing Items and how to display them on your pages.

#### Important for Listing Websites - Installing WP Job Manager

If you plan on building a listing website with Bridge, please make sure to install the free WP Job Manager plugin before importing the demo content. You can install this plugin by navigating to Plugins from your WordPress dashboard, clicking on the Add New button at the top of the Plugin page, and then searching for the WP Job Manager plugin in the search field to the right of your screen.

After WP Job Manager has been installed, it needs to be configured. Plese refer to the following screenshot:

Please note that some of our listing demos might use the Regions for WP Job Manager plugin. This plugin is also free and can be installed the same way as the WP Job Manager Plugin (described above).

The WP Job Manager plugin offers a variety of paid addons for additional functionalities which users can purchase seperately. Unfortunately, these addons could not be included in our theme, because they are sold outside of the Envato market. In order to ensure you have all the functionalities visible in our Listing demos, we suggest purchasing the WP Job Manager - Job Tags and WP Job Manager - WooCommerce Paid Listings plugins.

With all of these plugins activated, you should configure the WP Job Manager plugin before you import demo content. Please refer to the screenshot below to see how the plugin needs to be configured:

Because these plugins are not included in the Bridge theme package, the demo import won't set images for them. So, for example, you will have to set featured images for regions manually after you import the demo content:

   Note: if you wish to modify these sizes at a later date, you may need to regenerate thumbnails in order for it to take effect. This can be done with the following plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/.
7. See Importing Demo Content instructions in the Getting Started section of this user guide and perform the process explained there.
8. Go into the backend of your shop page. This can either be a custom page you've created, or the shop page from the demo site that you've imported. Under Page Attributes, choose the WooCommerce template.
