Really nice work! I have nothing to complain. I have other great themes, that are really nice, like Avada and X, but I like yours better for what a need.

The issue: I have a license of VC but I dont want to use it since the theme already have it build in, but I’m missing some functions. I would like to know if you can provide me with the code to put in the child theme functions file to have everything back while keeping the custom shortcodes build by blueowlcreative for the theme.

I think this is not covered by the support, because its design choice and not a problem, so I will understand if you don’t have the time to write the code, but I will appreciate if you can. I don’t know how to do it myself.

Regards,

Augusto

Sure, I would love to help. So you want some of the default VC functionalities?
Yes, we have disabled them most of them by default but of course you can still power them back on if you need to. Edit your \includes\shortcodes\vc_shortcodes.php. In it you will find lines like:

vc_remove_element('vc_icon');

This for example disabled the default VC icon shortcode element as Fortuna features its own icon element, commenting out this line with 2 slashes (//) will bring the element back to life! Let me know if you need anything else! :)

function child_remove_parent_function() {
remove_action( ‘init’, ‘boc_vc_modules_remove’ );
}
add_action( ‘after_setup_theme’, ‘child_remove_parent_function’ );
?>

This code worked for me. I’m just posting here if anyone else want this.
