Theme Settings

Kalium -> Settings is where whole features are switched on and off, separate from the Customizer, which decides how they look.

Kalium has two places where you change things, and knowing which is which saves a lot of hunting.

The Customizer, Appearance -> Customize, decides how your site looks. Colors, fonts, header layout, the shop grid.

Theme Settings, Kalium -> Settings, decides which features exist. Whether Template Parts is available at all, whether the portfolio module is loaded, whether backups are taken before updates.

Put simply: the Customizer styles a feature, Theme Settings decides whether there is a feature to style.

The five sections

Section	What it controls
Template Parts	Whether the Template Parts system is available, and how Snippets are stored and guarded
Portfolio	The portfolio module, and which post types can use it
Typography	How fonts load, and the font defaults
Theme Backups	Automatic backups taken before theme updates
White Label	Replacing Kalium's branding with your own

The Typography section is covered with the rest of the typography system, since its settings only make sense alongside it:

Why a menu or a screen might be missing

Most "where did that go?" questions about the Kalium admin are answered on this screen. Before assuming something is broken, check here:

The Template Parts menu is gone. Template Parts is switched off, or Hide Template Parts is on under White Label.

The Portfolio options vanished from the Customizer. Portfolio Extension is off, or the post type was unticked under Portfolio Post Types.

A dashboard page is missing, Plugins, Starter Sites, Status, Changelog or Account. Check the Hide switches under White Label.

None of my snippets run, but they're all published. Snippets Safe Mode is on.

I can't find the White Label section. Either your license doesn't include it, or Hide White Label Settings is on.

Turning a feature off never deletes anything. Your template parts, portfolio items and settings all stay where they are, and come back when you switch the feature on again.
