Welcome to Mikado One | A Single Theme For All Your Needs
Installing Mikado One
After having downloaded the installation file from ThemeForest, extract it and locate the file named mikado1.zip. You can then install the Mikado One theme using one of the two following installation methods:
-
WordPress upload - For most users, this is probably the simplest installation method. To install the Mikado One theme using this method, please follow these steps:
-
Login to WordPress admin
-
Go to admin panel > Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload Theme
-
Click on "Choose File" and select mikado1.zip
-
Click on "Install Now"
-
FTP upload - If you would like to install the Mikado One theme via FTP, please follow these steps:
-
Using an FTP client, login to the server where your WordPress website is hosted
-
Using an FTP client, navigate to the /wp-content/themes/ directory under your WordPress website's root directory
-
Using an FTP client, upload the Mikado One directory to the themes directory on remote server
Once the installation is complete, your Mikado One theme will be ready for use. Now all you need to do is navigate to admin panel > Appearance > Themes and activate Mikado One. After you have done this, you should see “Mikado Settings” 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.
Important Note
Make sure to install the "Mikado Core" plugin, since this plugin is of critical importance for proper theme functioning. This plugin includes the custom post types that come with the theme (Portfolio, Testimonials, Mikado Slider, Mikado Carousel), 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.
Great - now you can start building your site!
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 the theme options page. In order to remove that message, you need to change permissions for the wp-content/themes/mikado1/css and wp-content/themes/mikado1/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 http://mikado.ticksy.com/ with FTP access for your site, and we will take a look at it.
Importing Demo Content
With the Mikado One theme, you have the option to either start building your site from scratch, or choosing to import one of our demo sites to use as a starting point, and modifying it to suit your needs. In this section we will explain how to do the latter:
Mikado One comes with a one-click import module. To import one of our demo sites, please follow these steps:
-
Login to WordPress admin
-
Go into admin panel > Mikado Settings > Mikado Import

-
From the “Demo Site” dropdown menu, choose the demo site that you would like to import
-
From the "Import Type" dropdown menu on the right, choose what type of content you'd like to import:
-
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.
-
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 Mikado Settings.
-
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.
-
Options - imports settings in Mikado Settings 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.
-
If you also wish to import media files (images, videos, sounds), make sure to check the "Import attachments" checkbox.
Please note that the images we use 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.
-
Click on the "Import" button and wait for the import process to finish.
If you would like 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 Mikado One, please read the WooCommerce section of this user guide before installing the demo content.
Updating Mikado One
You can update your theme by performing the following steps:
-
Download the latest theme zip file from ThemeForest
-
Extract it and locate mikado1.zip
-
Extract mikado1.zip and locate the 'mikado1' folder
-
Copy/Replace the contents of the 'mikado1' folder to the /wp-content/themes/mikado1 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: http://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 (http://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.
Once you've installed Mikado One, you can start building your site.
One of the first things you might want to do after you have installed and activated your Mikado One theme is to set up you header area. The header contains the logo, menu, search bar, side area icon, and other optional widgets.
To set up your header, go to Mikado Settings > Header from the admin panel. The settings you define here will be the default settings for all pages on your site. If you need any help understanding any of these options, please refer to the Mikado Settings section of this user guide.
Some options, such as the header skin and background color, can be overridden on a page to page basis from a page’s backend. For more information on how local page settings work, please refer to the Pages section of this user guide.
Uploading Your Logo
To add your logo to the header, go to Mikado Settings > General > Branding from the admin panel and click the upload button next to the “Logo Image – Normal” field. After you upload your image and save the options, you should have a visible logo in your header area.


Menu Creation
To create a new menu, go to Appearance > Menus from the admin panel and click on “Create a new menu”. Enter a name for your new menu and then click “Create Menu”.
Every page that you have created will be listed in the section on the left named “Pages”. Simply check the ones that you would like to add to your menu and click the “Add to Menu” button. Once you have added pages to your menu, you can click and drag the menu items to rearrange them, or nest them one underneath the other.
In the “Menu Settings” section (which is located underneath the “Menu Structure” section), check the checkbox next to “Top Navigation” and click “Save Menu”. This will activate the menu you have just created, and you should now see a functional menu in your header.


Footer
To set up your footer, go to Mikado Settings > Footer from the admin panel.

The settings you define here will be the default settings for all pages on your site. If you would like both the top and bottom footer areas to be displayed, make sure that both the "Show Footer Top" and "Show Footer Bottom" options are enabled. If you need any help understanding any of these options, please refer to the Mikado Settings section of this user guide.

Content is added to your footer via widgets. Go to Appearance > Widgets from the admin panel. On the right side of your page you will see the widget areas for your footer. The widget areas for the top footer are named Footer Column 1, Footer Column 2, Footer Column 3, and Footer Column 4. On the left side of the Widgets page you will see the available widgets. To add a widget to one of the Footer widget areas, simply drag the desired widget to one of the Footer Column widget areas on the right.



To add content to the bottom footer, simply add widgets to the Footer Text widget area, or the Footer Bottom Left and Footer Bottom Right widget areas.
General Look and Feel
Now let’s set up the general look and feel of your site. If you have imported a demo site and would like to keep its general look and feel, then you do not need to do anything else. Otherwise, go to Mikado Settings > Fonts and in the "General Settings" section choose a default font family for your site, and then navigate to Mikado Settings > General and in the "Appearance" section set a default main color for your site.
Now that you have set up the basic elements for your site, you’re ready to start building your pages.
Building Pages
To create a new page, go to Pages > Add New from the admin panel. In the text field near the top of the screen enter a title for your page. After you have added a title, choose the “Full width” template from the section on the right named "Page Attributes". This will allow you to add sections to your page that span across the whole width of the screen.

In the bottom section of your screen are local page settings. Any settings that you define here will override the global settings set in "Mikado Settings". It is generally considered good practice to set up the look and feel of your site on a global level, and override the settings when necessary on a local level. This will save you a lot of time, unlike if you were to set up every page separately.
To start adding elements to your page, first make sure that you are in the backend editor. If the blue button on the top left says BACKEND EDITOR, click on it to enable the Visual Composer page builder view. Once you’re in the Visual Composer view, the blue button will say CLASSIC MODE. You can now click on “Add element” to start adding elements to your page. You can learn more about elements in the Custom Shortcodes section of this user guide.
Please note that the Frontend view for Visual Composer has been intentionally disabled since some of the added custom shortcodes require page reload because of script calculations, and due to this do not appear on the page while building with the Frontend view. The Frontend view can be used, however while building your page some elements might not display properly until you refresh the page. If you would like to use the Frontend view, you can enable it by going to Appearance > Editor, opening the extend-vc.php file and finding the following piece of code if(function_exists('vc_disable_frontend')){vc_disable_frontend();} and either removing or commenting it out. To disable the Frontend view again you just need to uncomment or return this code.



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.

Blog Posts
To create a new blog post, go to Posts > Add New from the admin panel.

- Enter a title for your post in the text field near the top of the screen.
- On theright side of your screen, in the section called "Format", choose a format for your blog post.

Let’s take a look at the possible options:
- Standard - this is the default blog format. You can start adding content with the Visual Composer page builder.
- Gallery - this format features an image gallery slider. In order for it to work, you need to add a gallery at the top of your page. You can do this by following these steps:
- Click on "Add Element" and choose "Text Block"
- Delete any default text in the pop-up window and click "Add Media" in the upper left corner
- Click on "Create Gallery" in the menu on the left
- Select the images that you wish to add, and click on the "Create a new gallery" button
- You can write captions for the images, and reorder them by clicking and dragging
- After you have finished adding your images, click the "Insert gallery" button. Then click "Save changes"
- Link - a field named "Link post format" will unfold at the bottom section of the page. Here you can enter the full URL of the page you would like to link to.
- Quote - a field named "Quote post format" will unfold at the bottom section of the page. Here you can enter the quote you would like to display.
- Video - a field named "Video post format" will appear in the bottom section of the page. Here you can enter your video links. You can link videos from YouTube or Vimeo, or alternatively, host your own videos. If you decide to self-host your video files, you need to upload the video files via the "Media" section, and then enter the path to your video files in the corresponding fields. We recommend uploading videos in all three formats in order to ensure compatibility with all modern browsers. Under Video Image, you can upload a background image that will be visible while the video is loading
- Audio - a field named "Audio post format" will appear in the bottom section of the page. Here you can enter the path to an audio file you have previously uploaded to the Media Library.
Now it's time to categorize this post.
- Beneath the "Format" section you will see a section named "Categories". Here you can select the categories that you would like to add this post to. If you would like to create a new category, click on the “+ Add New Category” link. A text field will appear in which you can enter a category name, and then click “Add New Category”.
- Once you've checked the categories you would like to add your post to, click the “Publish” button.
- Beneath the "Categories" section you will see the "Tags" and "Featured Images" sections. Here you can add tags to your post and set a featured image to be displayed for this post on blog list pages.
Now that we have published our first blog post, let’s go over the available custom fields for blog posts..

General
This section allows you to set up general settings for your site that will affect its look and functionality.

Branding
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.
- Show Logo – Choose whether you would like to display a logo on your site or not.
Appearance
Main Color
- First Main Color - Set the most dominant color for your site.
Header Position
- Switch to Side Position – Set this option to “Yes” if you would like to use the Side Menu instead of the Header Top.
Uniform Site Background
Boxed Layout
- Enable Boxed Layout – Set this option to “Yes” if you would like to set your site to boxed layout. If you choose a boxed layout for your site, the content will be fitted in a centrally positioned grid. Otherwise, your content will be able to cover full width of the page.

- Show Bottom Passepartout on Mikado Slider - Set this option to "Yes" if you would like the bottom frame of the passepartout to be visible on the Mikado Slider. This option is available only if "Top Passepartout" is set to "No".
- Bottom Passepartout - Set this option to "No" if you would like to disable the bottom frame of the passepartout.
- Fix Bottom Passepartout - Set this option to "Yes" if you would like to fix the bottom frame of the passepartout to the bottom of the screen.

- Loading Animation Graphic - Choose the animation graphic to be displayed. You can customize it further by choosing its color.

- List of Internal URLs Loaded Without AJAX (Separated With Comma) - If you've enabled Ajax transitions but want certain pages on your site to load without it, you can disable it for those pages by entering their full URLs here (for example: "http://www.mydomain.com/blog/"). This is important if you're using plugins where Ajax needs to be disabled for them to work properly.
- Show “Back To Top” Button – Set this option to “Yes” if you would like a “Back to Top” button to appear on your page when the user scrolls down. When clicked, the “Back to Top” button will lead the user back to the top of the page.
- Responsiveness – By default, this option is set to "On" in order to enable your site layout to adapt to the viewing environment. We recommend you keep this option enabled in order to give viewers optimal user experience across all devices.
- Smooth Scroll - Choose this option to apply a smooth scrolling effect on your site pages (except on Mac and touch devices).
- Elements Animation on Mobile/Touch Devices - For optimal viewing experience of your site on mobile and touch devices, element animation on them is disabled by default (this applies to buttons, icons, images, etc.). Enabling this option might interfere with elements displaying properly, so we recommend you keep this option disabled.
Custom CSS and JS

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 side area, search bar, header top area, and/or fullscreen menu. Each of these can be further customized with text styles, colors, and content alignment.
Also, each hierarchy level in menus can separately be customized. For example, if a menu contains About > Our Team > John Doe, then About is considered a 1st level, Our Team a 2nd level, and John Doe a 3rd level menu item.
General Settings
Please note that if you use the Side Menu Area (by going to Mikado Settings > General > Appearance > Header Position and setting “Switch to Side Position to “Yes”), you will get a different set of options for the Side Menu Area. These options are listed below this section.
- Header in Grid – Choose whether you would like the header contents to be in grid or to span the full width of the screen.
- Header Type – Choose the type for your header. You can choose from the following header types:
- 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 the navigation text is aligned right. This is 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 the navigation text is aligned right. This is a good choice if you want your viewers to have access to top navigation at all times.
- 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 the navigation text and both elements are centered. This is a good choice for sites with a grid layout.
- Sticky - This header is initially on top of the page and goes out of view when the viewers scroll. It then reappears and stays sticky on top after a certain amount of scroll. By default, the logo is aligned left and the navigation text is aligned right. 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 type 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. Since this was a common layout in the 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 type 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.
- Scroll Amount - This option applies to the Fixed Advanced header type. Set the amount of scroll (in pixels) for the menu to hide.
- Scroll Amount for Sticky - This option applies to the sticky header types. Set the amount of scroll (in pixels) after which the sticky header will appear.
- Menu Position – Choose a position for your menu (the default position is aligned to the right).
- Center Logo – Select whether you would like your logo to be centered in the header or not.
- Enable Top/Bottom Border in Menu – Select whether you would like to have a top / bottom border around your menu.
- Border Color – Set the border color for the menu border.

Mikado Import
You can use this options panel to import demo content. For more information about importing demo content please refer to the Getting Started section of this user guide.
When creating a new page, one of the first things you will probably want to do is to choose an appropriate template for your page. To this this, visit your page from the backend (or create a new page by going to Pages > Add new), and locate the "Page Attributes" section on the right side of the screen. Mikado One comes with a variety of page templates to choose from:
- Default Template – Select this template if you would like to create a standard page with your content inside the grid.

Please note that any settings you save here will override the global settings you've set in Mikado Settings. It is generally considered 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.
Mikado General
- Layer Slider or Mikado Slider Shortcode – If you wish to have a slider on your page, copy and paste the slider shortcode here. You can find the Layer Slider shortcode by navigating to WP admin panel > LayerSlider WP > All Sliders. As for the Mikado Slider, you can find it by going to WP admin panel > Mikado Slider > Sliders.

Using Your Slider
In order to display your slider on a page, you need to first go to Mikado Slider > Sliders and copy the shortcode string generated for your slide. Then you need to navigate to the page you would like the slider to display on and paste its shortcode into the "Layer Slider or Mikado Slider Shortcode" field on this page.

The shortcode of your slider should look something like this:
1. [mikado_slider slider='home-slider'auto_start='true'animation_type='slide'slide_animation='6000' height=''responsive_height='yes'background_color='' anchor='']
You can modify some attributes of the shortcode in order to achieve different effects:
- slider – this is the slider’s slug. You can enter a different slider slug in order to change the slider you are using on that page.
- auto_start – this determines whether slider transitions start automatically upon page load. Possible values for this attribute are “true” and “false”.
- animation_type – this controls the slider transition style. Possible values for this attribute are “slide” and “fade”.
- slide_animation – here you can set the amount time (in milliseconds) to elapse between slide transitions.
- height – you can enter a height for your slider in pixels. For example: height=’500px’. If you leave the height attribute empty, your slider will be displayed in full screen.
- responsive_height – set whether your slider height will change with the size of the screen it is viewed on. Possible values for this attribute are ‘true’ and ‘false’, and it will only take effect if you have entered a value for the “height” attribute.
- anchor – If you wish to create a link to this slider, you will need to have an anchor to link to. You can set your anchor name using this attribute, in lowercase letters. For example: anchor=’slider’.
Finishing Touches
You can further edit your slider by going to Mikado Slider > Sliders from the admin panel and selecting your slider from the list. In the slider options, you will find the following settings:
- Effect on header (dark/light style) – If your slider contains slides with predefined header styles you need to enable this option for the header styles you set to take effect.
- Parallax effect – You can enable or disable the parallax effect on your slider.
Breakpoint Coefficients and Breakpoint Sets
The Mikado Slider provides two sets of breakpoints which you can choose from. You can view these breakpoint sets by going to Mikado 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.
To create a client carousel, go to Mikado Carousel > Add new Carousel Item from the admin panel.

Enter a title for your carousel item in the text field near the top of the screen.
You can use the following fields to edit your carousel item:
- Carousel Image – Upload an image for your carousel item.
