Hi Ruben,

Pretty nice theme!!! Question: is it possible to insert the UberMenu plugin? I tried it already but it looks like it doesn’t work.

Nice item Ruben. Just bought it. Is there a child theme?

Thanks.

RubenBristian

No, you don’t have any child theme. You have to create one yourself..

Ruben,

Anyway I can get the full demo content?

I want the pics, slider slides, etc. This will make it a lot easier to edit the theme.

Thanks.

RubenBristian

All pictures are copyrighted, so it’s impossible to get them, while slides are easy to configure.. I agree that you could have the homepage slider, but you have a good video which shows you how to use it..

Hi Ruben, Great theme and planning to use for my portfolio site. Pre-sale question: - Is the theme ready for child themes?

I guess the theme options do have a customised CSS panel but given that themes are updated often I would like to use a child theme on this.

Thanks a lot,

RubenBristian

Yes, the theme is ready for child themes.

Default-user

Thanks for your reply Ruben. Another quick pre-sale question:

- Is Ikaros WP multisite compatible?

Thanks,

RubenBristian

Yes.. You can use it in WordPress Multisite installations, if that’s your question..

Default-user

That was exactly my question! Thanks a lot Ruben. And apologise for the separate questions. I am moving my workflow to a multisite WP framework and have decided to use Ikaros to show my portfolio and blog.

A final…final query would be about SEO plug-ins. I normally use All in ONE SEO plug-in by Michael Torbert. I know you do not provide support for third party plug-ins but are you aware whether Ikaros is compatible with this plug-in?

RubenBristian

I don’t see any reason why your SEO plugin shouldn’t work with this theme..

Hi, I really like this theme with the Block Grid layout for the blog posts. Two questions, can you specify or group what shows up on this by categories, so if I want the most recent post from specified categories they’ll show up in this? And is the image showing up at the top of a post when you click on it the Featured Image or an inserted image?

I ask these details because I want to update an existing site which needs these specific features, and it’s set to use the Featured Image for both thumbnail and in-post image at the top.

Thanks much

RubenBristian

I am sorry, but what you requested isn’t possible. The blog grid layout functions only as you see(no categories).. The used images is a default featured image..

Q. How to setting “Related Projects” in portfolio?

A. Related projects are made by tags.. Just add the same tag on more than one project and you’ll have related projects.

Q-1. Where can I input the tags in portfolio? you say tagline? I can’t find.

RubenBristian

tags are post tags.. when you create the project post, just give it some tags..

RubenBristian

You only have “older posts” / “newer posts” as you see in the demo..

Hey Ruben!

Changed from WoWay to Ikaros:) Everything works fine so far. The RSlider is great. Two issues: 1. Portfolio Projects do not move very fluently on the iPhonean the “client” image is stretched. What can I do? What is the perfect size/height for a picture to upload on a portfolio project? 2. Is it possible to disable the lioghtbox function on the classic portfolio slider? It looks wonderful and i do not want the wp lightbox there and no magnifying glass symbol… Would love to have an answer on this.. Thanks so far, Dominik

RubenBristian

1. I’ll look into this issue and make sure that it works properly in the next update.. The perfect height for the projects is 500px… Any width..

2. Yes, it is possible to disable the lightbox. Please open a public ticket on my support forum and i’ll help you there..

Ruben – again some questions: 1. To check the responsivity of the site with an open portfolio project i reduced the browser size to an iPad-like size and then back again to 15inch display. The slider pictures look stretched after that, seems the zeta slider does not adapt that right. 2. The icon-arrows, icon-drag and icon-keyboard images are loaded after the slider gallery, so sometimes the have not appeared when to background starts to fade…can i set the duration of that navigation box in the css? where?

Could you check this? Thanks so much! Dominik mail@dbutzmann.de
RubenBristian

1. I’ll look into this issue and make sure that it works properly in the next update..

2. Those icons appear only ones to the visitor. After a user has visited your site, a cookie will be stored on his browser, so he will not see those icons ever again..

Hello. Ruben.

I opened a ticket and none return me.

I’m having problems with CCS editor, that’s not saving the customization.

Also, the Blog Grid and Classic Blog are not working. When I create a new page and select these options, nothing happened. I can only use it with the Blog’s pages created with the XML , but I can’t change the url.

Could you fix this bugs?

Thanks.

RubenBristian

Please give me time to respond to tickets.. I don’t work night shifts :)

About your errors .. they are not bugs, but mistakes that you did..

Hello! I’m having som troubles with the classic blog style. The featured images are not appearing, and the posts are not resumed. They appear untill the end. The grid style works well. Tks!

RubenBristian

did you buy the file? your profile says that you didn’t..

Default-user

I did it, but in another profile.

RubenBristian

ok..

1. There are no featured images appearing in the posts by default, the ones that you see in my demo are just full size images added in the post content. They are not featured.

2. You need to use the <!-more-> tag in order to separate the post content from the post excerpt. You can search on Google about this tag, or you can read the manual :)

Default-user

Thank you. Understood now!

Hey ruben,

The contact form does work right?

When I submit the form I get:

“Notice: Undefined variable: use_smtp in /opt/lampp/htdocs/tm/wp-content/themes/ikaros/form-handler.php on line 63 Error. Please try again.”

My settings:


if($use_smtp == '1'){

        $SmtpServer = 'smtp.gmail.com';
        $SmtpPort = '465';
        $SmtpUser = 'myusername@gmail.com';
        $SmtpPass = 'mypassword';

*Of course I have my real username and pwd in the script.

RubenBristian

Are you sure you didn’t change the form-handler? It seems that line 4 doesn’t exist in your file, otherwise it won’t give that result:

$use_smtp = '0';

You just update the theme and make sure that you’re using the latest form handler. And do not make any changes to it.. Let the Theme options work..

Can you embed a video that plays in a lightbox using a shortcode?

RubenBristian

If you find a WordPress plugin or shortcode which does that, yes.. The theme doesn’t support this functionality by default..

Thank you Ruben. What about the styling of the pages? What am I doing wrong? Why is the content displayed as if there was no CSS styling done at all?

Ruben, problem solved. I just noticed all my permissions were wrong. I set everything at 755 and now it works fine :)

A request—on the portfolio detail, when you come to the end of the slides it acts like there are a few blank slides. Is there a way for it to stop when the last slide is on the right side rather than continuing on?

RubenBristian

I think this is a bug.. Make sure you’re using the latest version of the theme(1.3).. If not, please post a ticket on my support forums: http://rubenbristian.ticksy.com

I think that you forgot to add the tag function in the portfolio post area. I can’t find a way to add tags for related projects. Can you please take a look. thanks!

RubenBristian

The tag function is added by WordPress, so it’s impossible for a theme to come without it :)

Just make sure your WordPress setup doesn’t hide the tags(in the Screen Options – top right corner)

And if you have more questions, i will kindly ask you to direct them to the support forums: http://rubenbristian.ticksy.com

Hi Ruben,

I am sorry, but I dont have the tags option on the portfolio post section. I see the tag section on the regular blog posts page, but for the custom post portfolio section, I dont see it. Please let me know if I am incorrect. thanks so much.

Northgolden

ok. dug deep to fix this one, but got it. Hope this helps. The includes page portfolio.php was missing registering taxonomy tags. The single-porject.php page was pulling taxonomy category not tags. Once i switched out these two, boom worked. Love the theme awesome job!

RubenBristian

Ok, i understand now.. As you said, tags do not exists, but not because i’ve forgot to add them, but because the theme doesn’t need them.

Related projects are made by categories..

Hi Ruben

I’m having some trouble with the classes not appending right when adding a slide. “Big_Orange” etc. – And if I edit the style, it behaves odd (Not adding the style before revisiting the backend panel)

Is this known as a common problem or am I doing something wrong here?
