1. Install Theme and Import Sample Data issue

* Many issues that you may run into such as; white screen, demo content fails when importing and other similar issues are all related to low PHP configuration limits. The solution is to increase the PHP limits. You can do this on your own, or contact your web host and ask them to increase those limits to a minimum as follows:

1 - Please make sure you have done the properly installation order is: install & active theme > install & active plugins > install Sample Data.
2 - Increase your PHP Configuration Limits, bellow is the recommended of PHP Configuration:

** If you have done all but still encounter this issue and your web sever is Nginx. It might be problem of Nginx server configuration has the too low response time. You should increase the timeout to 300 the try to reinstall the sample data.

2. Contact Form settings

Sometimes, you make your new the contact form but haven't received the email although you have inputted the correct information. This issue is due to the settings of your contact form.

In order to make the contact form works: you need to match the settings between Form and Mail tab follow this image instruction:

4. How to create a Portfolio

There are 2 ways to create a Portfolio (a page display the single Projects) in Mountain theme: use Project Template or Shortcode:

1. If you want to create your Portfolio by Project Template:

- Please go to Admin > Page > Add New to create a new page and in Page Attributes > Template select Projects

- Then, you can go to Appearance > Projects > Project Archive to choose the layout of this Portfolio is Grid/Masonry/Gallery/Justify or change other settings.

* Please NOTE that the settings in Appearance > Projects > Project Archive is the global settings which will apply to all pages have template is Project.

2. If you want to create your Portfolio by Shortcode:

- Please go to Admin > Page > Add New to create a new page and in Page Attributes > Template select Projects

- With this method you just need to make modifications within the Shortcode to change the Portfolio settings such as Project layout style or category, columns, etc. Especially, this settings only apply to its own page.

- Let see the following Shortcode as an example, it will list 9 single Projects in the category Design, in Masonry layout and in 3 columns.

[projects_grid category='design' tag='' exclude='' layout='masonry' columns=3 limit=9 filter='yes' 
filter_by='category'][/projects_grid]

Please NOTE that if you use [projects_grid] Shortcode the layout can be Grid/Masonry/Gallery, but if you want to use the Justify layout you need to use [projects_justify] Shortcode as bellow

[projects_justify category='' tag='' exclude='' limit=9][/projects_justify]

Please read the Short Code section in the Mountain Documentation or the following explanation to know more about Project Short Code attributes:

[projects_grid]

[projects_justify]
