Where can I find documentation?

Full documentation is available at https://soledad.pencidesign.net/soledad-document/

Where do I report bugs?

Please use the contact form on ThemeForest or open a ticket via the PenciDesign support portal at https://pencidesign.ticksy.com/

Can I customize the theme without coding?

Yes. Soledad provides extensive options via the WordPress Customizer, Elementor, and WPBakery Page Builder, allowing you to control layouts, colors, typography, and more without coding.

Why does the design look different between Customizer preview and live site?

This usually happens because the Customizer preview loads styles differently from the live site. It can also be affected by caching or optimization plugins.

How to fix:

• Clear all caches (plugin, server, CDN)
• Disable CSS/JS optimization temporarily
• Regenerate CSS files (Elementor → Tools)

Can I add custom CSS to modify the design?

Yes. You can add custom CSS via:

• Customizer → Additional CSS
• Or your child theme’s style.css

How do I make advanced layout changes?

For advanced customization, you can:

• Use Elementor or WPBakery for layout control
• Use a child theme for PHP/template changes
• Add custom CSS for styling adjustments

Do you offer customization services for Soledad?

Yes. Feel free to send your requirements to [email protected].

Why is my demo not importing correctly?

This is usually related to server limits or missing plugins.

Check:

• Required plugins are installed
• PHP limits (memory, execution time) are sufficient
• No server timeout issues

Why are some features not working?

Most features depend on required plugins. Please ensure all recommended plugins are installed and activated.

How do I enable dark mode?

You can enable dark mode via the theme options in the Customizer or Theme Panel.

Does Soledad fully support WooCommerce?

Yes. Soledad includes extended WooCommerce features such as:

• Side cart
• Quick view
• Wishlist
• Compare
• Product swatches
• AJAX filters

Why does my product layout look broken?

This is often caused by:

• Caching plugins
• CSS/JS optimization conflicts
• Missing WooCommerce settings

Try clearing cache and disabling optimization plugins to test.

Why is my site slow?

Performance depends on multiple factors:

• Hosting quality
• Number of plugins
• Images and media size
• Caching setup

Recommendations:

• Use a caching plugin
• Enable a CDN
• Optimize images
• Avoid too many heavy plugins

Why am I getting 404 or missing file errors?

This is usually a server or configuration issue, not theme-related.

Try:

• Re-saving permalinks (Settings → Permalinks)
• Checking .htaccess or Nginx config
• Contacting your hosting provider

Why do I see JavaScript or TinyMCE errors?

These errors are often caused by:

• Plugin conflicts
• Server restrictions (403/503 errors)
• Blocked or missing files

Try disabling plugins one by one to identify conflicts.

Is Soledad compatible with Elementor?

Yes. Soledad includes custom Elementor widgets and templates.

Is Soledad compatible with WPBakery?

Yes. WPBakery is fully supported via built-in shortcodes.

Is the theme translation-ready?

Yes. Soledad supports WPML and Polylang, and all strings are translatable.

How can I get support?

Please create a support ticket via:

• ThemeForest support tab
• https://pencidesign.ticksy.com/

What information should I provide when requesting support?

To help us resolve your issue quickly, please include:

• Website URL
• Admin login (if needed)
• Clear description of the issue
• Screenshots or video (if possible)

Why should I use a child theme?

A child theme ensures your customizations are not lost when updating the main theme.

Should I use too many plugins?

No. Installing too many plugins can slow down your site and cause conflicts.
