Pniber theme was tested with WPML plugin and is fully compatible. If you want to have multilingual website, this is the best way to do it. If you want to use this plugin, you must purchase it first and then install into your wordpress installation.
Below we serve links that will be useful for WPML plugin:
We aim to make Pniber theme convenient and available to as much users as we can, which is why Pniber theme is now RTL (Right to Left) ready. Pniber theme contains all the necessary styles you’ll need to make your website RTL, and it’s as easy as 3 steps to set up! Once you finish these steps, your site will automatically be in RTL format.
If you use the WPML multilingual plugin, check their documentation on how to add a language. If the language is a right to left one, our theme will switch to RTL mode automatically.
Pniber theme is Retina Ready so the theme will look fantastic on High Resolution displays like the iPad or iPhone Retina devices. The most important thing to understand is that there are two different sets of images/graphics that can be Retina Ready.
This is a fantastic plugin and is the best option for users to ensure their images are Retina Ready. It tells you if the images you are uploading are large enough to ensure Retina Resolution. And it can also convert your current media library to be Retina Ready. It will automatically create the necessary 2x images that are needed for every area of the site, and will warn you if your images are not large enough to be Retina Ready. Please watch tutorial to see how the plugin works.
Some images such as the Logo need to be uploaded via Theme Settings. We have created the necessary fields to ensure those images are Retina Ready. Users will need to upload the extra files that are 2x the original size. For example, you will need to upload your regular size logo file in the Logo field, then upload the 2x Logo file in the Retina Logo field. For the Retina Logo, you will also need to input the width and height of the standard logo size, not the 2x size. This is important and part of the process the browsers use to display Retina Ready images.
