Hello,

I just bought the theme yesterday , and I notice some issue.. Maybe it comes from me… I don’t know : http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25981400/A.JPG http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25981400/B.JPG

Hello labsquare,

Thanks for purchasing the theme.

1. On first load, some widgets appear by default inside the featured widget area. To remove them, navigate to Appearance > Widgets > Default Featured Widget Area. From this panel, delete all unwanted widgets. Next, you can add a search widget in it (if required).

2. Similarly, the footer menu defaults to a page list if the menu is not set yet. You can set it inside Appearance > Menus. Inside ‘Theme Locations’ panel, assign a menu to “Secondary Menu” and save settings. This will enable proper menu in right-bottom corner.

I got 2 questions: 1) Can I customise the twitter widget message status texts? example: 3 days ago, 3 hours ago, 5 minutes ago… etc. I need translate them to spanish.

2) The search results are showed in some king of list mode, can I change this style to something like port 4col wide template.

I really hope can I do this 2 little things.

Regards,

PS thanx for your last time answer.

SaurabhSharma

Hello tekman-mx,

1. I have searched for twitter ‘xx days ago’ localization, but could not find appropriate solution. The feeds are generated from the API call, and there is no such option or parameter for localization. I will further look into their docs if there is such thing.

2. Search results are shown in the format as specified inside search.php file. That can be changed to show in form of port4col wide. For that, kindly send me a mail at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com.

However, I would also like to mention that search results can be from pages, posts, categories, etc. Not necessarily each page or post may have a featured image. In that case, a 4 columnar portfolio style template will not look good.

How do I update to version 2.2 ?!? My twitter plugin doesn’t work correctly and I think this is the problem.

SaurabhSharma

Hello dbergstudios,

You can re-download the latest version from your purchase account and replace hulk/includes/twitter_widget.php with the latest one.

Regards

Default-user

O Dang! I had a webmaster buy the template on a different account, and we don’t know the login… I had to make this profile last minute just to ask this question. There’s no other way? Can you send the twitter_widget.php to info[at]dbergstudios[dot]com ?

SaurabhSharma

Hello dbergstudios,

I can understand that. But unfortunately I can not send the files directly unless the purchase is verified. I hope you will understand. :)

Hello, I wish there was a way to search all comments for a theme instead of 1 page at a time. Please let me know if these questions have already been answered. 1) I’d like to remove “Comments Off” icon and text from the post (next to category). 2) Can “Previous Post” and “Next Post” just navigate within the same category? Otherwise, I need to remove them because other post categories are not part of the blog. If so, how do I remove? 3) I would like to remove this text from the bottom of blog posts “You can follow any responses to this entry through the RSS feed. Both comments and pings are currently closed. Edit this entry.”

Thank you Saurabh. Your themes are awesome and you give the best support!!

Hello kdenkers,

Thanks very much for the kind feedback.

Kindly send me your theme’s functions.php and single.php file at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com. I will send you the fix.

Hello,

Someone in the company I worked for purchased this theme and I have a question regarding the template.

We need to do some re-design to the frontpage but when I clone the “home”, the sliders won’t show. Therefore, I can’t really show a “test page” or “mock up” if you will to compare current and future home pages.

How can I do that? The home test page indicates the default theme page is being used but regardless, it won’t show the sliders.

Thanks.

Why does this theme still require us to use a featured image url when it should be getting that itself from the attached featured image? Would be much more user friendly.

SaurabhSharma

Hello macscr,

I agree with you. Now featured images can be used directly into the code (as my latest themes do). I will update this feature in Hulk too.

Hello,

I purchased this theme a while back during version 1.7, what do I need to do to update to version 2.2. I’ve already backed-up my site and downloaded the new theme. Thank you!

SaurabhSharma

Hello jasonprussell,

You can upload the new theme folder to WordPress. Next, replace back your customized files or CSS styles into the new theme. If you wish to replace files selectively, I can provide you version_details log file from 1.7 to 2.2. For that you can mail me at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com.

Hi

I’m using WPML plugin, after creating home page in another language slider images and text are no longer visible when new language is selected. How can this be solved

Regards

Sasa

SaurabhSharma

Hello Sasa,

Slider is set to show on Front page only. So when you switch the language, that another home page is not treated as front page. For reference, the conditional statement for slider to show on Home page is set inside header.php file, line no. 160:

if( is_home() || is_front_page() ):
- begin slider code -

You can change this to allow for one more page, which is your multi lingual page, by providing it’s ID. For example:

if( is_home() || is_front_page() || is_page( 31 ):

Where 31 is the page ID of your Home page in another language. You can also change it to page slug as is_page( ‘home-custom’ ).

By adding this conditional statement, slider will be activated for that particular page too.

Regards

Re: above post for Sasae & Saurabh:

I think you forgot an extra closing bracket before the double dots near the end of the above code for WPML, otherwise it gives an error. It should be:

if( is_home() || is_front_page() || is_page( 31 ) ):

I can only get this half working on my page with WPML – the slider left/right buttons show up but the slider itself is still grey blanked out. It doesn’t show any images. How can I fix that?

Alternatively if we want to show a different slider per language (with text on images translated), how would we get these to show using WPML and this theme? Is it possible?

SaurabhSharma

Hello emeraldwave,

Thanks for pointing out. It was a type mistake from my side. :)

First thing, the theme isn’t completely WPML ready, otherwise I would have definitely mentioned in the item details section about it. When using custom loops, a theme may not work well with WPML. That’s because category IDs may change when a site content is translated. So possibly, the category IDs provided inside Theme Options panel for slider are not the same for translated categories. I is possible that translated categories have different ID.

Since slider is shown only on home/front page and category IDs fetched from theme options panel, it may be difficult to make it dual purpose.

Regards

Default-user

Ok, then can I make the slider not to show at all when on another language’s homepage? Perhaps a sample of the above code modified for “don’t show if a specific page id”. This would be better than displaying the current empty grey box.

SaurabhSharma

Hello emeraldwave,

Yes that can be done by using ‘not’ conditional statement:

if( is_home() || is_front_page() && !is_page( 31 ) ):

using !is_page() means proceed to next code if this page is NOT the one with id=30. I hope this will hide slider for that particular page.

Regards

Default-user

Thanks that hides it!

I have a multilanguage site. How can I’ translate to other languages “Page not found”, “Search results” etc…

SaurabhSharma

Hello mingxin,

Theme message strings can be translated using language files located inside hulk/languages/ folder. You can find details on translation inside your_download_zip/documentation/index.html file’s section 17. Using Language Options.

If you wish to change these strings in core files, “Search results” is located inside functions.php at around line no. 319 (inside hlk_page_titles() function).

_e( 'Search Results', 'hulk' );

“Not found” is located in various template files like page.php, loop.php, port2.php, etc. I would recommend using language files for translation instead of changing core files. :)

Regards

Default-user
mingxin Purchased

I followed your tutorial under section 17. And it’s still not changing message strings. If I have 4 languages on web, shuld i define 4 of: define (‘WPLANG’, ‘de_DE’); define (‘WPLANG’, ‘hr_HR’); etc…

SaurabhSharma

Hello mingxin,

Sorry for confusion about localization. The theme supports localization in one language per installation. It is not multi language ready. i.e. you can have one WordPress site in any one language. Multiple Languages can be achieved using WPML plugin which this theme doesn’t support.

As described in section 17 of documentation, that will work for one language. Besides that, if you wish to change text in core files, kindly send me a mail at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com along with text strings to change. I will send you a list of files containing those strings.

Regards

Default-user
mingxin Purchased

I’ve already bought WPML plugin. So I have multiple languages. i just can’t translate those message strings in multiple languages… Is it possible?

SaurabhSharma

Hello mingxin,

Yes that is possible. As I said before, kindly send me the exact message strings which you want to translate. Like “Page not found”, “Search Results”, etc. If possible, also send me your WP login and URL at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com so that I can check if the translation is used by WPML or not.

Hi,

how can i change the width of the primary menu? Look here www.seltaeb.de – i want to have the menu in one line…

Thanks – it is a great theme! Ray

SaurabhSharma

Hello Ray,

Thanks for the purchase and kind feedback. Menu width can be increased by adding this rule at the end of style.css file:

.nav1 { max-width: 820px; }

Previously it was 620px, so changing to 820px will align them in one line.

Hi, thanks a lot – it works fine.

But know i added a custom Logo in the Header. The Logo and the Menu are not in one line – how can i fix this?

Thanks Ray

SaurabhSharma

Hello Ray,

That’s very close. The available header space is less to accompany your logo and long menu. But we still have a 10px of scope. Kindly add this rule at the end of style.css file:

.brand { margin: 30px 0; }

This will give some room for menu. :)

Regards

Default-user
Seltaeb Purchased

Hi, thanks- but i only want to get the menu and the logo in the same horizontal line – the size of the logo is okay. the menu only have to move a bit up… Do you know, what i mean – maybe my explanations are not well…

SaurabhSharma

Hello Ray,

I think you didn’t applied the CSS rule which I sent earlier. Once you place that rule, both will align in same line. We are only removing the right margin from logo which is pushing the menu bottom. So when we set it as margin: 30px 0; it removes left and right margins, allowing 10px more room for the menu.

If I was not clear in explaining, simply paste that rule at the end of style.css file, clear browser cache and check the site. :)

Hi,

a few Questions ;-)

1. How can I change the Size of the Header? I wanne make it smaller.

2. How can i increase the size of the Menü-Words / Letters to be bigger?

3. How can i change the size of the slider at front page – is this possible?

Thanks a lot again!

Ray

SaurabhSharma

Hello Ray,

1. For header, do you want to make width smaller or height smaller?

2. Menu font size can be increased inside style.css file’s section 4. Header:

.nav1 a { ... font-size:13px }

3. Slider width can not be changed, but height can be changed inside Appearance > Hulk Options > Slider > Slider Height. Enter a height and save settings. Slider images will be automatically cropped into height as provided.

Hi, thanks for this quick answer.

I solved Problem 3 by using the a js-composer plugin -

to question 1 – i wanna make the header smaller – maybe to 80px height…

THX Ray

SaurabhSharma

Hello Ray,

Header height is inherited by logo height and some margin padding on header containers. You can adjust them by adding these rules at the end of style.css file:

.header { padding: 0  }
.header_wrap { padding-bottom: 0; }
.brand { margin: 10px 0 10px; }
.nav1 { margin-top: 10px; }

These rules will reduce header size. You can further change margin/padding to get desired height.

How can i make the logo in the same lilne, like the boxed side – and maybe is there a posibility to make the menu in one line? I asked this before – but thsi one word still breaks the line.

Hi I updated wordpress to the new release, but Home page slider doesn’t work Can you tell me how can I do? This is my site

http://www.outplacement.it/outplacement/
SaurabhSharma

Hello dmasotti,

I just checked the site. Your theme version is 1.2, whereas the latest one is 2.2. There are 10 intermediate upgrades between these versions. I would recommend updating to latest version of the theme.

If you wish to skip entire update. You can try by only replacing these files from latest download:

hulk/js/jquery.nivo.slider.pack.js
hulk/css/nivo-slider.css

If the problem still persists, kindly upgrade entire theme. :)

Hi Saurabh,

I am using your Hulk theme on a client’s site (http://www.absoluteplumbingqld.com.au)

Are you able to tell me why the front slider images never seem to work – we had them working then they stopped? For the life of me I cannot work out why. It would be great if you have the time to help.

SaurabhSharma

Hello Kylie,

There are a couple of problems. First, the timthumb.php file is not executable. may be it’s permissions got changed. You can check the error here. This can be fixed by assigning file/folder permissions to the timthumb script and cache folder as described in the beginning of documentation file.

Secondly, there is a JavaScript conflict. This is probably caused by a script module used by JetPack (WPGroHo). Try disabling all plugins for a while and check the slider. That shall make it work.

Hi Saurabh, we bought your theme some times ago and I find it great. Our site is www.test.psmobile.it

Just a couple of questions:

1. Is it possible to hide the sidebar on posts? 2. I see you state this theme is not WPML compliant, is it impossible to use them together or there would be just some work to do?

Thanks in advance Cosma Tassinari

SaurabhSharma

Hello Cosma_Tassinari,

Sidebar can not be removed from posts. If we do so, it will be required to re-style comments and other sections to occupy full width of post.

The theme is WPML compatible, but features like Home page slider will only work for one language Home page. Other translations will work normal.

Regards

Default-user


Thanks for the reply,
actually, comments would not be a problem, since I already removed them, altogether with other post related items on the page.
You can see how the post is displayd in this image
The reason why I want to use post and not page is that I need categories to use recent posts and category widgets
Thanks again in advance
Cosma Tassinari

SaurabhSharma

Hello Cosma,

You can add these rules at the end of style.css file:

.single .sidebar { display: none; }
.single .content { width:900px; margin:30px 30px 0px }

This will hide sidebar from single post and will make content wider.

Regards

Default-user


Thanks again for the reply,
The solution works perfectly.
Just one last thing:
how can I hide also the featured area in posts?
Cosma Tassinari

SaurabhSharma

Hello Cosma,

By featured area, if you mean the light grey section in which category name is shown, that can be made hidden by adding this rule at the end of style.css file:

.featured { display: none; }

Regards

Default-user


Hi Saurabh,
this hides the featured area in all the site, including the home page where it is used for the slider.
Is there a way to hide it only on posts?
Thanks
Cosma Tassinari

SaurabhSharma

Hello Cosma,

Sorry for that. You can try the following code:

.single .featured { display: none; }

Regards

Default-user


Doesn’t matter,
I figured out myself how to do it.
I added to the css this rule:

.single .featured { display: none; }


Just signaling it for other users if they need it.
Thanks for all the time you dedicated to me
Wish you all the best!
