DC – really loving the features in this theme. Just amazing.

An issue I can’t seem to resolve involving auto formatting – I’m using Quform for the contact page and as you can see its spacing out the fields. Any ideas how to overcome this or override the autoformatting just for this page (I’m using sidebar page template)?

Hello,

Thank you! Did you already resolved this? I think it’s not possible without some modification, but when I check your page the contact form created with this plugin looks good, maybe you already resolved this somehow.

DC I did resolve it – Quform ppl gave me some hints which led me to a plugin called ‘WP Unformatted’ – which allows you to strip auto formatting for pages individually by calling a custom field ‘sponge’ with a value ‘1’. All the other plugins kill formatting globally so that one is the one you want.

DigitalCavalry

Great, thanks for the information.

Can you tell me where I can removed the link / word comments on my blog pages? I have comments disabled but it still adds it to the both the page and category list across from the date.

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

The easiest way would be to make a simple modification in CSS – open common.css file located in “css” folder and then search for this class:

.blog-post .post-info .comments

And add display:none; property to this class. Then you can do the same also for this class in the same file:

.blog-post-medium .post-info .comments

And that’s all.

I’m a little confused on how to get the content to show up on the home page? i’ve tried two ways..one by entering text in the box on the setup and also by creating a home page and setting that as the default and still no content shows up..same with the “tabs” or anything else try to add to the homepage am I missing a step here?

DigitalCavalry

Hello, you must first make the basic steps described in the PDF User Guide – create a page with “Homepage” template and set it as “A Static Page: Front Page” in section Settings > Reading.

Then you can enter some content for this page in the editor – if it is a custom content, and select to use this custom content in section Innovation > Home. In this section you can also decide what other section will be displayed on homepage etc.

For homepage tabs for example, you create some homepage tabs in special “Homepage Tabs” section on the left WordPress menu and select to display this section in Innovation > Home. And you can also use some options for this section that allow you to choose default selected tab etc.

This should help, but let us know if you will still have some problem with this part.

DC, here is my website….i was looking for hte install instructions…am i missing something…is it in the zip file? everything seems to be correct in the backend….ill disable some plugins to see if that makes a difference http://www.blackfitnessblog.com/ thx
DigitalCavalry

Hello, I am not sure what might be the problem because almost everything seems to work fine but the site loads very slow and there are some errors from timthumb (but most thumbnails load fine..). It might be caused by some non IS2 plugins, so you can first try to deactivate these plugins (but don’t deactivate NextGen Gallery plugin) and check how it works, or it is something related to the host / server settings.

Hi DC. I’m working on my site right now, and I need to know a couple of things.

1) Do you have a Google+ and Pinterest icons I could use to put them next to the main logo?

2) How can I change the font of the main text in the blog posts? (not the theme titles ones). I don’t want to change the font of all my posts manually.

Let me know.

Hi, I have a problem with the Chain slider and all pictures. It keeps showing up question mark icon. All the pictures doesn’t appear. I’ve tried to re-install the theme but nothing happen. Can you please help me with this? Thank you.

Hi DC:

How do you disable the lightbox feature? I’m finding that my images are becoming severly degraded and pixelated (in particular with the 620×300 post main images). Of course, when you click on the lightbox, it loads up the actual picture nice and crisp. It seems that a background program is putting in a low res placeholder image in place of the actual images I’ve uploaded.

Please help!

thnx

DigitalCavalry

Hmm.. I need to check this.

Default-user

I found out how to do it… It’s in cp_functions.php …

function dcf_resizeImage

and

function dcf_getTimThumbURL

I set $q=95 (it was set at 60 before if I remember correctly). This helped to sharpen up the images in the lightbox.

Hi DC:

I sent you an email about this privately but if anybody knows the answer, I would appreciate some pointers.

The images on the site are rectangle as you know, but I wanted to modify some of those as I’d like to use this theme for a book site.

In particular:

- I want the Homepage Recent Posts (small thumbs) thumbnails to be changed from 133×90 to 133×200.

- For the Medium Blog Layout, I want the thumbnails to be changed from 140×140 to 140×210.

- For Related Posts, I want the thumbnails to be changed from 133×88 to 133×200.

I found the areas in common.css and common_dark.css style sheets that specify these variables. Once I made the changes there, the boxes on the pages changed to the sizes that I want but the thubmnails are still not resizing to the specified variables I inputted into the style sheets. It seems that thumbs.php is still dynamically creating the original thumbnail sizes. But how? Is there another file where I have to specify my new thumbnails sizes?

I’ve literally pulled my hair out over this, trying to figure out why thumbs.php is not pulling variables form the style sheet in order to dynamically make the thumbs at these new sizes I’ve specified above.

Please help!

Thanks :-)

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

Yeah, this is some tricky code. PHP code can’t get information from CSS because don’t have access to selectors properties etc. I can do this but this is bad idea and will complicate code.

Homepage Recent Posts thumbnails are rendered by renderHomeBlogPostsLine function located in cp_renderer.php file. So go to this function and change 133×90 to 133×200 in this function.

For the medium blog layout you must do changes in function renderBlogPostMediumLayout located in cp_renderer.php file.

For the related posts thumbs find function renderBlogPostFull located in cp_renderer.php file. The related posts section is located near at the end of function.

Best Regards, DC

Hello,

Post content and what page? Homepage? Single post page? Or on all pages the post content is not displayed? Can you write some more?

In the single post page :-( all pages the post content is not displayed

DigitalCavalry

It looks like the post content is not rendered. Can you send me access to your wordpress installation? I think this problem can come form some plugin that block post content or this is something else I will try to find this, but need access to your WP installation.

Helo,

I have done some investigation. Post content is saved in database, I have displayed it from post properties, but WordPress functions can’t display it or content is somehow blocked. I have disabled all plugins and I have no positive results. Is there something else installed for your wordpress by WP CMS or via server?

The content is not visible from start – installation? Or it is invisible from some plugin installation or IS2 code modification?

Hello,

No there isn’t other installations. Content was visible and eventually I’m not sure it was today or earlier when it stopped display.

I also noticed that Lightbox displays different. Not like in the beginning. No arrows and other stuff and mini-gallery is visible on all (even single-photo) items.

Is reinstall of the template will help?

Regards, Marek

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

First try to switch theme from IS2 to some default WP theme. Maybe this is not theme problem but WP instillation is some how damaged.

Hello DC,

Thanks for help. I was checked and on other standard Wp template everything was ok. So next step before re-installation I did was to replace all IS2 files using ftp by “clear” files from disk. It helped :-)

Post are visible now and gallery displays in proper way. I don’t know what was the reason. After replacement of IS2 files I did actions with plugins (snippets etc…) ... and everything is ok.

I think it was a kind of error (on server?) which damaged some files yesterday.

All in all not everything is ok :-)

Regards, Marek

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

Maybe this was damaged file, but in this case there should be on 99% some error printed by PHP . But it is good that now is OK and post content is displayed.

I asked this question five days ago, but did not get an answer: How can I change the font of the text in the blog posts? I’m not referring to the title of the blog posts. I’m referring to the paragraphs on each blog posts. I just don’t want to change the font of all my posts manually.

Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

For this you can add color property to p tag CSS code in common.css file located in “css” folder, but this will affect all paragraphs. If you want to do this only for text paragraphs on blog post, then you can search for this class in common.css file:

.blog-post

Then, after this class, you can add a new CSS for text paragraph in blog post that will look like this for example:

.blog-post p
{
color:#EEEEEE;
}

Hi DC. Thanks for the response.

I wasn’t referring to the color exactly, though this can help me for something else I had in mind. What I want to change is the font of teh blog posts, like from Arial to one of the Google or Cufon fonts, such as Sansation, or one I got to see on dafont.com. I love how easy I can change the font of the titles of blog post, but I’d like to change the font of the content of the blog posts, too.

DigitalCavalry

Hi, If you want the text in posts to be automatically displayed with Cufon or Google Font you can add the .blog-post p to the list for Cufon or Google Font. But for the post text the same font will be used as for headings etc.

For Cufon you must add .blog-post paragraph name in this form:

.blog-post p

or in this form:

.blog-post > p

to the list in Cufon function in common.js file.

For the Google fonts you must do the same, but the class name with p must be added to the list in cp_general.php file – to find this code search for function customCSS in cp_general.php file located in cms/php/ folder and in this function you will find section ”// theme font” with a list of headings and classes.

If you will use one of this solutions you might also need to add the .blog-post p (or .blog-post > p) to the CSS and define the font size etc. (like it was mentioned earlier in my description about color change for blog post text). I think this should help.

Hello

I’ve been getting more familiar with other WordPress themes over the last month or two – including one of your other themes “Prestige” for http://www.jadecolucci.co.uk and working on a few other projects as well.

Anyway, I’ve just come back to Keith’s site: http://www.cormicanfitness.co.uk/portfolio/ and all’s good, he’s very happy with the site and the theme, but we’d like to try and make the thumbnail images look better in the link above.

I’m using the following code to bring the images in on this page:

[dcs_ngg id=”3” w=”184” h=”184” number=”25” bshow=”false” margin=”0px 0px 0px 0px” padding=”4” /]

Is there a location for the thumbnails in this situation, if there is I can just find it and copy and paste over the current ones, but I get the sense these are somehow being made on the fly.

What I’d like ideally is to keep your built in Portolio system – so use the code above to bring the portfolio in- but for it to populate the thumbnails from the NextGen Gallery thumbs folder, then I can either use the built in thumbnail editor to change the position of the thumb crop area, or I can easily just upload my own thumbs into the Gallery folder and replace the default ones – this is what I did on Jade’s site to achieve the custom thumbs I wanted.

Please advise on how best to achieve customised ThumbNails in this instance.

Once again, thank you for a great theme.

Cheers for now Joe

DigitalCavalry

Hello, unfortunately this is not possible because in IS2 the thumbnails for galleries, gallery shortcodes (like the dcs_ngg) or also for other features are generated mostly by timthumb script, and can’t be replaced easily with some other images.

Hi, i have problem on sidebar. Already download the core, but can’t install the plugin, so i make copy to themes location. now i would like to make sidebar settings, and it’s required to activate the plugin indexing the sidebar before go to “appearance”. how to get the plugin at wp-content?

DigitalCavalry

Hello, I am not sure based on your description, but maybe your problem is related to your theme settings. Did you created at least one sidebar in Innovation > General > Sidebars section? In this section you must create some sidebar to place widgets on it, and you can also set here a default sidebar for example. When you will have at least one sidebar created, you will be able to place widgets on this sidebar in Appearance > Widgets section.

If this is won’t help, maybe you can send us a bit more description about this.

Besides the previous question I asked about changing the font on all posts, I got two more.

1) When I add an image using the I+S Insert Image, I’m editing my post while on HTML . I uncheck “Insert as shorcode” for compatibility with my previous blog, but when I change the preview to Visual, I don’t see anything. When I return to HTML view, the HTML code for that image placed with I+S Insert Image disappears. Why? Is there a way to fix that?

2) The images that are supposed to appear under Related Posts after a blog post, are not available. I noticed on a link like {url}/wp-content/themes/InnovationScience2/thumb.php?src=&w=133&h=88&z=1&q=65 that src= does not have a value like w= and h= have. Is there a way to fix that as well?

I’m using the Progress slider. Please respond whenever you can. I’m on a deadline.

Is it possible to allow visitor comments in Photonews pages?

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

Yes this is possible. Just go to cp_customposts.php file and find createPhotoNewsPosts function. In this function uncomment comment string inside this line.

'supports' => Array('title','editor','excerpt','trackbacks','custom-fields',/*'comments', */'author'), 

so change it to this

'supports' => Array('title','editor','excerpt','trackbacks','custom-fields', 'comments', 'author'), 

Now comments option should be available in screen options for particular photo news posts. Check this checkbox and next for sure check that post have Allow comments enabled.

Ok, i thought its other plugin I miss for the first settings, understand now. 1 more questions, i have RSS more than 1, as a Blog. When I set into each categories, such as, GAMES and GADGET , my program (WP robot plugin) can make separate categories. When I put the blog on this theme under ‘Blog template’, but all article will merge as 1 blog. whereas already make each page with own ID.

how to make separate categories blog/make another file blog.php? thanks.

DigitalCavalry

Hello,

Just create another page based on blog page template. Don’t duplicate blog.php file because it is created for supporting multiple blogs in theme.

After creating new page based on blog page template go to blog page custom settings and type categories ID that you would like to display on this blog page. If no categories are set blog page will display all posts from all categories.

Best Regards, DC
