in this video I'm gonna be showing you
the latest version of Kingdom which has
broken a few people's home pages I've
been hearing because it now uses visual
composer exclusively to build the pages
so I'm gonna upgrade food boutique up to
latest version and we'll see what breaks
and how we fix it let's go
[Music]
hello always Alex here from WP eagle
thanks for watching so I've been getting
lots of emails and messages from people
saying they've updated to the latest
version or Kingdom which I believe is
three point two point three or three
point two point four something like that
anyway it's the latest version that's
available on themeforest when you
download it and install it all seems
home page and you realize that none of
the short codes which are the little
things in the square brackets that we
use to create our own page none of them
are supported anymore so yeah you can't
see your blog posts and the rows and
things they are they all go ask you e
the reason for this is that they've
switched over to visual composer
exclusively for building pages which is
kind of cool because visual composer is
easy to use it's much easier to use and
dropping in short codes and all that
sort of stuff you just drag and drop and
it also includes a few other new
elements a lot more than we originally
got with the king of themes so I guess
it is progressing away but it's just a
shame the way a a team did it as usual
they just kind of did it they didn't
tell anyone
there wasn't any easy guide to migrate
stuff over it just put up a message
saying we're not using short codes
anymore mmm but anyway I've been on the
computer I did it a minute ago actually
so I've already run through it I've
updated boot boutique all seem to work
fine it wasn't quite as straightforward
as usual the upgrade wasn't as obvious
as I thought it would be but I've left
all that stuff in there where it goes a
little bit skew
so you can see exactly what I went
through and how I fixed it and all that
stuff so that's enough rambling chitchat
from me let's get on the computer well
actually I've already been on the
computer let's roll the tape okay so I'm
over at boot boutique which of course is
the website that I've been using for the
majority of these tutorials if you've
seen any of the previous update videos
you'll know that I update the theme
using a plugin I've got that plug-in
installed I suggest you install it too
it makes updating themes a lot easier
it's called easy theme and plug-in
upgrades to add it simply go up here
click add new and type that into the
search box and get it installed and
activated then you're ready to update
your theme I'm over at theme forest and
got the download screen up here's the
kingdom looks like it's got a discount
on it at the moment interesting but
anyway I'm going to download all files
and documentation
there we go that's downloaded then I'm
gonna extract the the zip part that's
just downloaded give us a folder with
the version number which is currently
free point 2 to point 3 and then in
there there's another folder called
theme and then in there
there's a folder called theme zipped and
then there's the kingdom top sit which
is what we want so back to the website
and I'm going to go to appearance and
themes and add new upload and then
choose the file from my computer and
find it there it is remember in the free
point-to-point free folder then in the
theme folder then in the theme zip
folder there it is Kingdom zip install
now if you get an error message saying
that the stylesheet come up we found
that only means you haven't extracted
the file properly and you you're not
uploading the right zip
okay that should be about done you some
reason my back end is not showing
correctly I'm not quite sure why but it
seems to distort everything fine hey-ho
okay so after you activate you get a
whole load of these messages and this is
the problem that a lot of people have
been having that the Kingdom shortcodes
that we were using before they've
decided that they're not uses them
anymore which is is very handy so it
says let's go through these one more one
the first one is you are usually
appreciated shortcodes plugin please
deactivate it okay let's do that that's
gonna break the site and but I will fix
it in a sec okay WP rocket says clear
the cache I need to do that if you're
running a caching pro a plug-in should
be watching my last few videos on speed
and you might be okay you're using an
old version of Kingdom visual please
update it and yep the key noise let's
get rid of that Kingdom right message I
know that it requires visual composer
okay let's go and turn that on mmm
that's weird wonder what that is I'm not
gonna click that like then we are
running visual composer
it's just activated
okay let's go back and see what the
other messages were go back to plugins
installed plugins wants us to update
this kingdom visual composer add-on
which is this one here the best way to
do that is to deactivate so I'm going to
delete it I'm also gonna delete this
shortcode to plug in and says we don't
need that anymore so fair enough and
just going to tick the two there go back
to the top and go to delete that message
is because I'm running on WP engine and
they just warn you if we do anything
just to make sure you don't break
anything so they're deleted let's go
back to install plugins to clear the
cache one more time okay let me just go
to appearance and install plugins that
will tell us which plugins we need
running with Kingdom and we need these
two so you're just gonna tick them all
and then click install it was running
version 1 anyway I don't know what it
was all about and nevermind they're done
again my screen looks a bit weird
hopefully yours is is okay I just need
to activate these just click activate
activate okay so we should be good okay
we're back to here we don't need the
shortcode okay why is it saying I need
do need the shortcode plug-in whoo
nevermind okay and it's do what this
message about the wheel almost template
files I wouldn't worry too much about
that hopefully they'll get around to
fixing it what you just go back to my
admin it's all going well wasn't it I'm
gonna keep all this in you know me I'm
not gonna edit it all out
as you can see what kind of faff I go
through as well and so anyway let's get
on a fix on page but before I do that I
will get rid of this shortcodes plugin
to that message is annoying me so we
don't need that even though it said we
do need that and then when I put it on
so you don't need that so we don't need
this through clogging let me just
deactivate him there's speak no more
right come on okay all right let's have
a look what it's done to the homepage
so this one is to work and that's
because that is a WooCommerce shortcode
the kingdom Road stuff is not working
that a debt I guess any more headlines
aren't working and the blog post not
working so let's fix it all up so what
we need to do when we're editing pages
now is click on this one which says edit
with visual composer it's just loading
okay and then if we scroll down I
already see a lot
she's handy but anyway we can start
editing a few things so we've got this
text box with the headline for the
featured products effect but I think I'm
going to do I'm gonna go to the backend
editor' it might be a little bit clearer
looks like
okay so here's the back end and it's a
it's up to you how you want to sit on
the front end it wasn't loading the
products which makes it a little bit
tricky to see what's going on I think in
here it's a bit clearer what I'm going
to do is I'm just gonna clean out all
this and then I'm going to recreate it
using visual composer so let's click the
little pencil to edit this text book I'm
gonna keep the Welcome bit at the top
but then all this stuff I'm just gonna
get rid of another I'm going to re-add
it I think I can remember what we've got
we've got future products then we've got
some ugg boots fly line of boots and
rocket dog boots then we've got the EM
blog posts so I'm looking to press
delete get rid of that save okay there
we go so I can add another row by
clicking here then I click row there we
go so the first one was featured
products so first off I click the little
plus there and then we've got a
WooCommerce section just here looks at
future products I can just click on it
like that four columns per page I think
we had it on six before but it's
obviously up to you and you got some
options here where you can adjust the
sort order etc it's a lot easier
actually using visual composer done the
short codes you know when you think
about it because you can just move stuff
about and you have to remember any short
codes so I guess it is progress it's
just the way they kind of ditched the
existing short codes was a little bit
out of order possibly a lot of people on
the channel of put comments saying I've
updated and my front pages my home page
is broken so giving us a bit of warning
but never mind so there's a future
products let's add a heading so if I
click the plus above it I can add
something above and I want a little bit
of text takes books there we go and I'll
just type in featured products they'll
make it okay
h2 or heading 2 just gonna click update
because I'll have a look and see if it's
working and then if it is then we'll
just crack on I do the rest
let's view the page so that's working
that header isn't big enough for me so
let's adjust that so if I edit visual
composer now on the front or the back
the front again nevermind
ya see for some reason it's not loading
the products when you're using the
visual composer which I think makes it
little tricky to kind of see what's
going on so that's why I'm going to go
back to the back back to the back let's
edit this text books so it looks like
with a h1 that's any bigger gonna view
the page in other tabs so faffing about
that's bigger look at your bad so let's
do the rest you can close that tab
okay so let's add another rope and a
plus then a textbook latest from oak
Australia like that Thank You h1 then
let's add the WooCommerce categories
thinking of a bob will find it and when
commerce and then let's choose product
category and the categories already
selected I'll go Australia we can change
that to six life what the heck let's
leave it is twelve there we go now
before I go much further let me just
show you a couple of other things that
we get with visual composer around these
headings so I just used some H ones
there in a text box but while I was
adding that week almost I just noticed
that we've got a few other options so
let's just add them so we can see what
the difference is so let's click the
little plus so you've got this custom
heading here which is text with google
fonts so just want to show you this so
you've got a bit more flexibility so we
could use this for our featured products
headline and you can set the tag and the
alignment and then you can actually set
a font size just by typing in a number
like that and a line height and you can
set the font and take that if you want
to use the font that comes with a theme
but or you could use a really wacky font
whatever just choose one at random what
we got I don't think really matters
Chandler that look like
mmm doom what
we'll go with Chandler so it works you
got some design options so you can add
some padding all that sort of stuff so
let's just save that so that's the
custom headline then above that we could
try another one which I noticed which is
under Kingdom and you got the Old
Kingdom headline which is the same as
the shortcode that we were running
before but I call this kingdom head by
so we know the difference and tell the
difference there we go let's click
update I just wanted to show you this so
you know you've got a bit of flexibility
when you're setting up your headlines
that's all
says our kingdom headline which looks
very nice
there's our featured products which was
the whenever it was custom headline and
then there's the one that I just did in
the text box as an h1 so I think the
main difference between the Kingdom
headline there and this h1 is that's in
capitals I saw what I can see I think is
the main difference so I'm just going to
it with a head but I'm just doing a CH
once for now but off so you can use
whatever you like so let's go back in
and finish off this page we'll get rid
of those add the rest of the products
and the blog posts
okay so I'm gonna say stick with the
h-11 so let's just get rid of the
kingdom headline I click on the little
bin to get rid of that fresh can if
you're in America and that one there we
go
let's click update right let's go back
into the backend editor'
I'll quickly there is a quick way of
doing stuff actually with visual
composer you got this little button here
which duplicates and just go punk punk
like that and I can quickly just edit
this headline what does he yell Rocket
Dog was it then just quickly just this
product category and just go down it's
like the older rocket dog and then this
one do the Lucky Brand or hide it out
alright good with my boot brands I do
get out good Boer War - how did you Kate
one more time we just need to update
this with commerce change that to good
ball ok so at the very bottom we had the
blog posts which I think was a kingdom
element so I'm sure it will still be
here so again if you just want to make
it easy just duplicate that and then we
can just change this latest from blog
and we just delete this week commerce
element and click the plus to add a new
one it's only what's we got in here yeah
there it is the kingdom blog slideshow
no I'm dragging it just click it here we
go let's see what that looks like with
the one column date
there we go
let's click view page
here we go let's take a look there's all
our lovely categories here's the blog
but otherwise I thought it was supposed
to be a slider thing so that's not quite
right let's go back in edit
let's scroll all the way down don't know
if it would work in the front end all
the blogs the blog thing does let's
adjust the settings block columns I'm
gonna see what that does
it's a nice look what the kind of
carousel that it had going on before it
says it is a slide show I mean how
strange okay I'll just have a look there
may be another block feature built into
visual composer that we can use but see
if that's many difference by changing
those columns
okay it's just kind of standard that's
strange because yeah before the slide it
was quite nice with Kingdom wondering if
his cuz finally cut two blog posts is
that another one see what happens this
is a okay let's see if that's made any
difference if we've got a carousel
effect going on just go down nope that's
certainly not a carousel hmm I'll raise
that we're Kingdom not were Kingdom with
a eighty we'll see what they say that's
why that's not looking right let's move
that to Trish okay so there may be a
another blog blog post element let's
have a look it was your composure
okay we get to the back end at the top
so what we got
there's a post grid post pages or custom
post in a grid it's could be interesting
[Music]
standard kind of recent posts that's not
going to have a scrolling thing now
unfortunately ah there we go that post
ladder that's that's what we need let's
give that a go
show post types your posts we can't
products is what if you like alright so
that does we just ditch the kingdom one
for now
okay let's view the page I hope it
another tab
okay let's go down bill blimey oh hang
on
Alec I think I need to configure it but
it's not showing any titles or anything
but and the thumbnail is a bit stretched
let's make a few adjustments back in
editor okay let's get this done this
this video dragon on a bit isn't it
I want a slidy we got a slider or a fade
[Music]
slide account you got free we can have
all if you type all in or to rotate
three seconds use the teaser the excerpt
and the post title that's what I want
and the thumbnail size I think it needs
to be thumbnail let's type in thumbnail
[Music]
you can set a category there it's much
more flexible than the the Old Kingdom
one that's visual okay there we go let's
view the page
let's take a look that is ridiculously
big now man let's just go back yeah it
was reading before so Harlan I let's
have a look at large why not one of
them's got a look semi-decent you dope
