Aquitaine Business Theme

Hello,

Apologies for skipping your question earlier. The answer to your question depends on what homepage type you are using. If you are using the default homepage, then you should modify the file template_home.php. If you are using alternate homepage 1 / 2 you should modify either template_home1.php or template_home2.php.

Open the file template_home.php(or the other 2 I’ve mentioned above) and look for this code:

<?php if (get_option('of_twitter_section') == 'yes') { get_template_part( 'twitterbar' ); }

get_footer(); ?>

Delete the code:

if (get_option('of_twitter_section') == 'yes') { get_template_part( 'twitterbar' ); }

from there – you should have left only:

<?php get_footer(); ?>

<!-- END homepage slideshow -->

<?php if (get_option('of_twitter_section') == 'yes') { get_template_part( 'twitterbar' ); } ?>

Let me know if you have other issues.

I understand very well what you need to accomplish, but unfortunately the theme doesn’t have support for portfolio filtering and it’s not something that can be added without making major changes to the portfolios.

I have an alternative twitter bar script. I don’t know if it works better than the one currently in the theme, but if you wish you can drop me an email(via my contact form from my themeforest profile) requesting it and I will send it to you so you can make some tests and see if it works better.

Sent you an email a couple days ago for that twitter script… did you receive it?

The footer / main menu can be removed, but it usually affects more than just 1 page. If you want, you can create a page template that doesn’t contain the main menu and footer and use it when you want to create such a page(this won’t work for blog posts detail though).

If you don’t know how to do this, drop me an email via my contact form from my themeforest profile and I will do this for you free of charge.

You will have to regenerate the cufon js files and choose to include more glyphs. I know I wrote about it in the documentation but if you have issues with it please drop me an email via contact form from my themeforest profile.

Hello MAC ,

The images are automatically cropped by the timthumb script. I don’t know a way to force the script to position them otherwise.

Yes the theme has been updated to fix this. You will need to reinstall wordpress and redownload the theme package – latest version 1.1.3.

In style.css from theme’s root look for:

body {
    font-family:Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    font-size:11px;
    line-height:18px;
    color:#424242;
    background:#fff;
}

Change font-size:11px; to the value you want. Then in the same file look for:

#footer {
    float:left;
    width:100%;
    background:#232323 url(images/footer_decoration.gif) repeat-x top center;
    color:#c0c0c0;
}

Add font-size:11px; to this class like this:

#footer {
    float:left;
    width:100%;
    background:#232323 url(images/footer_decoration.gif) repeat-x top center;
    color:#c0c0c0;
font-size:11px;
}

When you are adding the slider post, look at the custom fields that come with it – it’s also a screenshot in the theme documentation mentioning them. That is where you paste the absolute path to the image you want to show in the slider and also it’s alignment – left or right. In the case of “Hunting high …” it’s right aligned.

The theme is not something to set up in 5 minutes. Last version is 1.1.3, just that I didn’t tweet about it, so it doesn’t show up in the aquitaine twitter bar. Now, why does the twitter bar shows my tweets ? Because, by default, the theme uses my twitter id. You will have to browse through Appearance -> Theme Options and configure the theme with you own settings.

Titles not appearing ? Yes that’s right because the titles and descriptions are filled in separate custom fields when creating / editing the page. Please take your time and read the documentation that comes with the theme – it will guide you how to set up the theme correctly.

And about making the theme looking like the demo – in the package you’ve downloaded I have included the export xml that contains all pages, posts and most settings of the theme demo. All you had to do is to go to Tools -> Import -> Wordpress and select the xml file I that comes with the theme files.

Obviously, if there are bugs or have specific questions that are not in the theme documentation please ask here or via email and I will help.

No I haven’t but I didn’t have time to answer all questions. I will do so now, starting with replying to yours.

1) http://awesomescreenshot.com/062jpp77b – I read the documentation – This welcome message does not exist in the index.php (Welcome to Aquitaine, the complete solution for business…...)

2) There isn’t a discussion box where you can uncomment. http://awesomescreenshot.com/0b8jpptab

1) I misunderstood. The welcome message you are referring to can be edited from Appearance -> Theme Options -> Homepage Options -> Edit the introductory homepage text.

2) Screen Options(right top side of the wordpress screen) -> check “Discussion” and the Discussion box will appear.

Thanks! Assistance from 5 stars!

Yes this can be done but you have to pay attention. In the hyperlink, “portfolio_3” is the custom post type – without a hardcoded name the custom posts wouldn’t work. Now to change it, you need to edit some files. In lib / custom / open the file custom-portfolio3.php:

Here you basically have to change anything related to portfolio_3. For example here is where is registered the custom post type portfolio_3:

register_post_type( 'portfolio_3', $args ); /* Register it and move on */

This needs to be changed to applications. It’s also used here:

  add_meta_box('port_3picture_links', __('Portfolio custom settings', 'aquitaine'), 'port_3picture_links', 'portfolio_3', 'advanced', 'low'); // the additions to the portfolio

This needs to be changed too. If you wish you can also change the custom taxonomy defined here:

register_taxonomy("portfolio3_categories", array("portfolio_3"), array("hierarchical" => true, "label" => "Portfolio 3 Categories", "singular_label" => "Category", "rewrite" => true));

Now, open the file template_portfolio3.php and look at the query arguments:

$args = array(
        "post_type" => "portfolio_3",
        "portfolio3_categories" => $port3_categ, 
        "paged" => $paged,
        "posts_per_page" => $portfolio3_pag,
        "post_status" => "publish" 
        );

These needs to be changed with what you also changed in the previous file. Also, there is another file in theme’s root that’s named single-portfolio_3.php. Change its name to single-applications.php.

In archive.php you also need to change what is portfolio_3 related. Not need to change the $sidebar_check value if you left it that way in single-portfolio_3.php(actually you don’t need to change this file contents, only its name). But in archive.php you need to change the line:

elseif ($custom_post == "portfolio_3") {

to

elseif ($custom_post == "applications") {

That should be it, hope it helps.

I am afraid I can’t help you with this since I bought that image a couple of years ago already and I don’t remember from what stock site I got it.

Ok I understand. I made a couple of tests and it is as you say. I am currently trying to find a fix for this and release an update. If it will be something that can be fix by changing just a small piece of code I will post the instructions here.

Hey,

any update on escaping theme option values ?

This bug has been fixed about 2 weeks ago – check out the updates history on the item description(version 1.1.4). You will have to download the theme package again from themeforest download section and overwrite your old files with new ones.

Also, for more questions or issues you might encounter to our themes, please head to our support forum – http://goldenworks.eu/support/ – we started providing support only here.

Adding just 1 slide post will do the trick. About removing the arrows, open style.css from theme’s rot and look for this code:

#aqslide-wrapper .arrow, #aqslide-wrapper .forward, #aqslide-wrapper .back, #aqslide-wrapper .forward:hover, #aqslide-wrapper .back:hover { 
    display:block;
    width:37px;
    height:68px;
    position:absolute;
    cursor:pointer;
    text-indent:-9999px;
    top:230px;    
}

Add display:none; to it like this:

#aqslide-wrapper .arrow, #aqslide-wrapper .forward, #aqslide-wrapper .back, #aqslide-wrapper .forward:hover, #aqslide-wrapper .back:hover { 
    display:block;
    width:37px;
    height:68px;
    position:absolute;
    cursor:pointer;
    text-indent:-9999px;
    top:230px;    
    display:none;
}

Hello,

Before answering your question, could you please post your question with the account you’ve purchased the theme ? So I can see your “purchased” badge.

Hello westerwald,

You didn’t do anything wrong. The theme doesn’t have enabled shortcodes for widgets. To enable this, open the file functions.php from theme’s root and at the end of it, just before the ?> paste this code:

if (!is_admin()) add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode', 11);
