Hi. I bought this theme last week. It looks great (www.hackjersey.com) but the folks on reddit have pointed out one problem: in some browsers (I think Chrome on PC), the initials at the top show up in Comic Sans. This will not do. How can I prevent the use of this font that people have a very visceral reaction to? If I remove the monogram, the diamond box displays weirdly. Please advise! Otherwise, I’m very happy with the theme, but it’s hard to be taken seriously when people see Comic Sans as the very first element when the page loads. This is an urgent issue for us. Thanks.
Hmm, the font used is Open Sans, in all the browsers
I see that in the code, but I’ll direct you to the reddit discussion that is now polluting the reputation of our event:
http://www.reddit.com/r/newjersey/comments/14m52r/hack_jersey/ “[–]darksim905LOPSA, Corgi Lover 1 point 5 hours ago It’s Comic Sans. You probably didn’t test it on enough computers. It looks like shit. :(” http://www.anonmgur.com/up/06c797e16f9282cc330cf9333a2971f4.JPG“And you’re absolutely right that the developers should have tested this more thoroughly.”
Can you please fix or advise? Can I disable the monogram? Surely you understand this is a big issue for us. We can’t afford to scrap this theme right now.
The font for the top letters is “cursive”, you can edit it in css/layout.css via FTP:
span.logotext { font-family: 'Marck Script', cursive; font-size: 50px; color: #fff; top: 52px; position: relative; }Great looks, but I have may grown accostumed to the completeness of other theme here on themeforest. This theme is by far, one of the most basic/crude themes, when it comes to customization-options end everyday use.
Pros (+) - Good looks - Lightweight and fast
Cons (-) - Really crude customization options —Np admin choice for logo / no-logo —No shortcode generator in posts or pages —No gallery management —No timThumb functionality for generating thumbnails for galleries, these has to be generated manually, and insertede manually. —No easy way to know what size you have to resize thumbnails to, in order for them to fit in a one-third / two-third / three-third grid layout. —Hardcoded titles on frontpage, regarding contactform fields and contactform titles —Font implementation page contain five font-options, with them same settings name, so it is hard to know which fonts you are actually adjusting. —No widgets – should say clearly under “features” when you buy the theme —No easy way of finding out how to use the nice looking icons from your demo.
I have bought lots of themes here on Themeforest, and a theme like this, while it might look good, I will have a difficult time using it for a client site, since the theme admin options are so basic and scarce. Furthermore, it gives me an extra workload if about 5-7 hours, because you have to manually serach your comments here on themeforest, and then manually edit style.css, index.php etc.
I think you should take a long hard look on the theme options in the theme “Juxter”. It has all of the above, and also an implementation of layout boxes, which makes it easy to construct a nice looking grid layout.
With high hopes of a major upgrade – or a lower price on your future themes,
Kim.
Thanks for your review. Regarding the widgets, it states on the theme page: “Widget Ready No”. As for the other features, if one theme have them it doesn’t mean it’s standard. Shortcodes/ galleries are NOT part of the themes and should be handled by plugins. Just because one theme has lots of shortcodes and a generator, galleries, custom post types and so on it doesn’t mean it’s good and all the themes should have them, they should be implemented via plugins, there are plenty of good plugins like nextgen gallery for galleries or “Styles with Shortcodes” for shortcodes.
Hi I have recently purchased this theme. I am having some problems however. When I loaded the theme onto my domain I am only getting links on either side of the middle logo with the letter in the middle that say sample page and contact. On the example preview of the theme there are also links for about, portfolio, and experience. I am just wondering if you can tell me how to get those links on my site?
Try importing the sample data from the /sampledata/ folder so you can start with the content from my demo
Hi there. I’m really hoping you can help me out with some changes to the CSS. I’ve uploaded a photo as the background image and it looks good the way it is, but when you shrink the browser window, or if you look at the site from a mobile browser, it doesn’t auto adjust the size of the photo so that it is 100% of the browser width.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
www.topherandoscar.com
Add this to style.css:
#intro .bg1 { background-attachment: fixed !important; }That doesn’t seem to work. Do I add it to style.css? or layout.css with the other #intro .bg1 tag?
I figured out a better way to write the responsiveness of the container so that it works with a photo:
#intro { position: relative; width: 100%; padding-bottom: 40%; height: 0; overflow:hidden; } #intro .bg1 { background: url(../images/intro-bg.jpg) 0 0 repeat; background-position: center !important; background-size: cover; -webkit-background-size: cover; /*background: url(../images/intro-bg2.jpg) repeat fixed;*/ /*Background 2*/ /*background: url(../images/intro-bg3.jpg) repeat fixed;*/ /*Background 3*/ margin: 0 auto; padding: 0; position: absolute; z-index: 100; width: 100%; height: 100%; }Now I need to figure out how to make the nav font more responsive so that it gets smaller on an iphone screen. Right now in the vertical position it’s causing the intro container to jump bigger. Almost there.
Add this to style.css:
@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) { .nav2 a { font-size: 11px !important; } }Is there a reason why nav2 doesn’t show on the blog page or any page that’s not apart of the home page?
what nav2?
The navigation that detaches and sticks when you scroll down the page.
what’s your url?
www.topherandoscar.com
If you click on the blog, the nav2 disappears.
I realized that’s not a good example as the blog page doesn’t need to scroll. But I have another page that will need to scroll so it’d be nice to have the nav2 there as well.
The nav only remains sticky if there are some items on where you can scroll. Since on the blog page the content differs and you can’t scroll anywhere, it won’t stay sticky.
As you can see there’s enough content to need to scroll down, yet when I do, the sticky navigation bar doesn’t show up.
The navigation is sticky only on the homepage, the sticky script only works if the areas of where the nav links actually exist. That’s the default behaviour.
Hi! We purchased the theme a few weeks back and have been struggling to get the built-in contact form to work. We are running on a sub-domain, but have already incorporated the altered code from elsewhere in the comment threads, and the button went from being unresponsive to saying “Thank you! I have received your message.” However, we are still not receiving any of the emails we submit through the form. We have used the Configure SMTP plugin and tested it with Contact Form 7 – both the “test” function of Configure SMTP and submissions through Contact Form 7 worked, leaving me baffled. Any suggestions?
You don’t have the buyer badge
Hey, sorry about that, the comment above was posted under a different account, but is for murmurmedia, so I’m reposting it logged in as the account we used to purchase your theme.

If it says that he sent the mail, it means the wp_mail function did run and the problem is with the configuration of the php mail function and not with the theme.
Hello, I successfully removed the built-in Contact link in the menu and replaced it with my own. But how do I inhibit the built-in Contact page from displaying? julieschlak.com – thanks in advance.
You can check index.php at the bottom to see the original syntax and adjust yours until you get the same layout. Or use Firebug for firefox and just adjust the style.css. If you’re not familiar with html/css I’d suggest hiring a 3rd party developer for customizing it.
Respectfully, I didn’t ask you how to format Contact Form 7. I asked you how to get rid of the built-in Contact form that renders as part of your theme. I know my way around html and css, but not js and php. I wouldn’t have to use an alternative Contact plugin if the built-in one that I paid for worked. I am not on a subdomain, and the alternative mail plugin works fine, so I presume my mail functions work fine, it’s something in the combo of your theme and my hosting service. From the other discussions on your list, I am not the only one having this issue. I have already searched for answers on my own before contacting you. Can you help? Thanks.
Add this to style.cs:
#contact { display: none; }Thank you, that worked perfectly!
Great.
Hi,
I have recently started experiencing an issue regarding the ViewPoint options. I can successfully enter the menu, however, all the options do not show up (see image). I have tried several browsers. All I have done lately is updating plugins and wordpress.
Do you know why this is?
http://s1.postimage.org/k9gyobhhp/Untitled.png
Hm, that’s very weird, can you send me your issue + the dashboard url + a wordpress admin account via the contact form on my profile so I can check the issue?
Is there a way to removed the intro page so that it just defaults to the first item in the navigation?
you didn’t buy the theme
We did buy it – I think it was under another account – Saruul Designs. We love it, but can’t figure out how to do it. Can you help please?
It’s under herzfamily.
Post your requests with the account you used to buy the theme please.
I’m working on a simple site for my dad, and the framework you’ve set up here is so, so lovely. This is my first try at this, so pardon a silly question if it is. Am I able to change the font in the menu or in the three main headings? Thanks for your help.
For the menu, you can add this to style.css:
nav a { font-family: your-font !important; }for the top three lines of text, use:
.title h1 { font-family: your-font for the first line of text !important; } .title h1.smallh1 { font-family: your-font for the second line of text !important; } .title h1.smallerh1 { font-family: your-font for the third line of text !important; }Thanks so much. How do I un-bold those headings?
Or rather, could I use a logo in place of the headings on the #intro?
Go to header.php and find:
<h1><?php echo $viewpoint['topheader_text'];?></h1> <h1 class="smallh1"><?php echo $viewpoint['topheader_smalltext'];?></h1> <h1 class="smallerh1"><?php echo $viewpoint['topheader_smallertext'];?></h1>replace it with:
Hi. Is there a way to change the fields in the form and to add new fields? Also, is there a way to rename the form (‘Contact’) in the menu and above the form itself? Thanks.
By default no, but I can replace it with a contact form 7 so you can modify it. If that’s fine, send me the dashboard url + a wordpress admin account + the issue again via the contact form on my profile
Thank you for this theme. We put it together with our work and it looks great. Looking around at our search results for our site, we noticed the default text still shows up in categories that we have defined in our Wordpress back-end.
The site shows up just fine. http://bluewindowcreative.com/
Except if you are in a category that we have defined. http://bluewindowcreative.com/category/featured/
If you are in a category that we don’t have defined, it looks just fine.
http://bluewindowcreative.com/category/MonkeyasaPet/
so you want to remove the top header text?
Sorry, re-reading, my explanation wasn’t very good. The default text shows up under the sections from “work” and below “Hey, Luke! May the Force be with you. Oh God, my uncle. How am I ever gonna explain this? I don’t know what you’re talking about. I am a member of the Imperial Senate on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan. In my experience, there is no such thing as luck.”
Well, that’s part of the page content.
I know that is the default text. I have replaced and customized the content, but the default text still is pulling from somewhere if I am on a category that I have defined. This wouldn’t be a big deal because users can’t access these pages except, it shows up in search engine results.
If you compare the three links, you can see what I am talking about.
Oh, I see, send me a wordpress admin account via pm + the dashboard url + your issue again and I’ll fix it.
I figured it out and just went into the category.php and corrected it myself. Thanks for the look.
cool
I purchased this theme and have uploaded it and still encounter some errors. The theme won’t load into WP because it says the stylesheet is missing. Help.
Unzip the file you downloaded from ThemeForest first
I did that. IT won’t upload the stylesheet. Have you done an update to make it compatible with wordpress 3.5? When I’ve tried uploading it before, it says the theme is broken. I’ve tried it both ways as a zip and unzipped file transfer to the database. So… what am I missing?
send me your dashboard login details + the problem via the contact form on my profile and I’ll install it for you
I would like to remove the “blog” and “contact” from the navigation menu and cannot figure out how. Please help me! I am trying to make a very simple website for my sister’s wedding. She needs this fixed asap. The only items selected in the ViewPoint navigation settings are ceremony, reception, and accommodations. But there is no option to remove blog and contact.
Blog is currently showing up in safari, but not chrome… weird.
Please help!

send me a wordpress admin account + the dashboard url + the issue again via the contact form on my profile and I’ll fix it.
I have configured the Contact information as indicated in your directions, but nothing happens when I test it. When I press the send button, nothing happens. Thanks for your help. tlagoranch.com
Go to js/contact-form.js and find:
jQuery.post("../wp-content/themes/ViewPoint/index.php", { name : name.val(), email : email.val(), comment : comment.val(), submit : "yes" }, function() {replace it with:
jQuery.post("../wp/wp-content/themes/ViewPoint/index.php", { name : name.val(), email : email.val(), comment : comment.val(), submit : "yes" }, function() {Is there a way to upload/import all the pages so it looks like the demo? All I have is the sample page.
use the sample data .xml file in the /sampledata/ folder in Tools > Import
Thanks! I tested the contact page and the emails don’t go anywhere. Do I have to do something to make it work?
What’s your url?
Nevermind. I’ve removed the contact fields. Good template but a few bugs….
Looks like Twitter_updates needs this new code: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12845545/displaying-twitter-feed-stopped-working
When I scroll down to the second page a different menu bar appears. Which php file controls that? Thx
Please advise how I can remove the gap between Portfolio & Contact – after scrolling down. That’s the only thing I need fixed – thanks!
Hmm, what gap? the one between the menu items? As for the twitter updates, yes, send me a wordpress admin account via the contact form on my profile and the issue again and I ll fix it
Also 1. the twitter_updates shortcode doesn’t work 2. Blog link appears in menu even when there’s no posts
1. Send me a wordpress admin account via the contact form on my pofile with the issue.
2) It doesn’t matter if you have posts or not, it checks if you selected a blog page in the general settings or not.
