Hi,

Can you tell me if it is possible to add Google translate to the main menu section of this theme? I also want to add a search field. As you do not support widgets, can you tell me how I can add the following code to the main navigation line of my website at the base of the main menu?

<script type=”text/javascript”> function googleTranslateElementInit() { new google.translate.TranslateElement({pageLanguage: ‘en’, layout: google.translate.TranslateElement.InlineLayout.SIMPLE}, ‘google_translate_element’); } </script><script type=”text/javascript” src=”//translate.google.com/translate_a/element.js?cb=googleTranslateElementInit”></script>

I hope to hear from you.

Regards

Hello Tony, you may add any script in the Appearance > Editor > Kari: Footer (footer.php) at the end just between the <?php wp_footer() ?> and
</body> tag

Hi,

Thank you for coming back to me. I have another question that is maybe a little unachievable perhaps. I want to be able to utilize the portfolio or works items so that they offer the large image at the top but at the base, I want to add whatever text I want without the items on the lefthand side which offer NAME, CLIENT, YEAR and finally PROJECT. I want my text to go from left to right without the formatting that is currently offered on these works pages. I hope this makes sense. Is this at all possible? You see the image layout is perfect but I want to use the homepage to offer different pages on my website and not as a portfolio. Can this be done?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Regards

Tony

Hello Tony,

You may start from Style > Custom CSS (e.g. for portfolio items):

.single-item #content .one-third { display:none }
.single-item #content .two-third { width:100% }

Hi again, sorry. I cant seem to get the filters list to appear. This is created by adding works to categories and the category names with works attached to them would then create the list? Is that right or am I doing it completely wrong here?

alaja

Filter is created simply by adding tags to works.

Hi, thank you for your support. That worked fine. One last thing. I am trying to remove the underlining on the active links but cant see this in the style sheet. Is there some other way I can do this? I want my links to not be underlined. Is there a custom code I have to enter to remove the underlining?

Default-user

Also, I would like the line spacing on the general text in the works section to be tighter. I cant see where this can be changed. Is this possible?

alaja

Hello Tony,

1) Link underline is a default browser behavior, you may change it by using css: a { text-decoration:none }

2) It can be done again through the Theme Options > Style > Custom CSS

Hi Guys

Great theme, I’m just testing a few things and am having trouble with the video embeds I’m trying to use. I use Wistia to host my video’s but can’t seem to get the embeds to work at all.

For example;

“http://fast.wistia.net/embed/iframe/0d40f00582?controlsVisibleOnLoad=true&version=v1&videoHeight=360&videoWidth=640&volumeControl=true” allowtransparency=”true” frameborder=”0” scrolling=”no” class=”wistia_embed” name=”wistia_embed” width=”640” height=”360”

just results in the embed text quoted rather than the embed itself. any ideas?

alaja

Kari don’t support Wistia but send us a message with your relevant code, may be we may help you, alaja.info/contact

I love this theme! I have one question. I want to use a works page (with the full width slider) as the home page. Is that possible?

alaja

Thank you. It’s easy to do with Kari but unfortunately, wordpress dashboard allows us to add only Pages as front-page (Settings>Reading>Front page displays).

So you’ll have to hack it, the most easiest way we found is to add to theme functions.php line:

update_site_option( ‘page_on_front’, 66 );

Where 66 is the ID of your post id (working for pages, posts and portfolio items).

Hello.

I love the theme, looks great.

I cant seem to figure out how to format my links on the works page.

my site: http://new.adambricker.com example page: http://new.adambricker.com/item/icewater-i-know-that-dream/

I figured out how to strip the links of the underline formatting but I am unable to format them as bold and change the color.

any recommendations?

Thanks -Charlie

alaja

Hello Charlie,

It can be done through the Theme Options > Style > Custom CSS (you may know more css rules by playing with WordPress content editor, then use Text tab to see what styles was added):

a { text-decoration:none; font-weight:bold; color:green }

Thanks!

Hi,

I still have an issue with the columns layout on the works pages. I want the works pages to not have any columns. I have taken out the left hand side elements but the text still splits into columns when the screen resolution is large. Please take a look at the link below:

http://towerbridgeprimary.com/item/clubs/

I basically want the text to flow in one column. Is there a way of changing this to accommodate the text as it is required?

I look forward to hearing from you.

Tony

alaja
Hello, Tony. It’s not an issue. String above 80+ chars are hard to read. So theme says to browser if it can column the text – it will be columned. You may disable that as well through the Custom CSS:
  #content .text,
  .post .text {
    -webkit-column-count: 1;
    -moz-column-count: 1;
    column-count: 1;
  }

thank you sir :)

How can i add a picture to a single page item? I tried featured image but it didnt show up.

alaja

Hello,

To add images to your works, use the editor with “Add Media” button (above the main content editor) to paste a gallery with your images http://cl.ly/MHmq (Add Media > Create Gallery)

To add work thumbnail, please use Featured Image.

Default-user
borans Purchased

No, you understood me wrong. I created a normal page (for example an “about me” page and want to add an image to this page just like portfolio items. Doesnt this possible?

alaja

Why not to use Works for this, you may exclude them from portfolio by category filter? Anyway, thank you for feedback, we’ll add this in update (Featured Image for Default Template, if we’ll get it right). Please let us know what you think.

alaja

Mail us here alaja.info/contact for not waiting for theme update.

Hallo,

I have another question. Is there any way to clean up the urls to get rid of “item” in between the home url and the portfolio item page name?

thanks -Charlie

alaja

Hello Charlie,

The custom post type should have the slug. But we have found that you may easily replace ‘item’ part to anything you like (e.g ‘entry’, or ‘p’, or ‘blog’), as addition you may use links without ‘item’ part – wp will redirect you back if the last part of url correct. For example: http://wp.alaja.info/kari/liquify-video-project/

Hello,

Awesome template. When I upload media for a new “work” it is blurry even if the image height/width is less than the max height/width written in the code. Can you clarify the specific dimensions you have in your preview site, which I assume are ideal for any website using your template? in addition, can you clarify the dimensions for the featured image before WP re-sizes it?

thank you!!

alaja

Thank you,

For thumbs you may use 240×180 w/h dimensions to not re-crop images. For media for single portfolio items ideal width is 1200, but height isn’t specified so use anything you like.

Sincerely, Alaja

Hello! Beautiful theme you have here. For the works pages, how can I make the three column default (one for client/year that spans one-third, and two for project each spanning one-third) into two columns (one for client/year that spans one-third, and one for project that spans two-thirds) ? Thanks!

alaja
Thank you. You may disable that as well through the Style > Custom CSS, just add these lines:
  #content .text,
  .post .text {
    -webkit-column-count: 1;
    -moz-column-count: 1;
    column-count: 1;
  }

alaja

Please open up theme / shortcode.contact.php file and check the line #12 , there you’ll see self::$email_response value with the response. Thank you.

Is there a possibility to add more then one video to a single portfolio item? Like using gallery for images.

alaja

Hello borans. You may add additional videos to the work content.

Default-user
borans Purchased

But how? I am talking about adding more than one video to a single portfolio item.

alaja

At the media content area only one single video is allowed. Another videos you may add to the single portfolio item content through the basic post editor.

Hi,

I recently added a feature to the side navigation which allows users to change the size of the text on the pages if they are visually impaired.

It seems to work fine on any “pages” but doesnt appear to work on the “works” content. Please see http://towerbridgeprimary.com/

Would you know how this can be fixed to work for all aspects of the website?

Regards

Tony

alaja

Hello Tony,

We can’t recommend such a plugins, any web browser and OS can do it better than this plugin. And people who need to change text size, know how to do it with their favorite browser.

Question about the portfolio: Say you only have 9 pages/work examples, would there be only 9 boxes in the grid and blank space below?

Thanks for your help!

alaja

Yes, absolutely. Thank you for your interest in Kari WordPress.

Hi, been using the theme with much pleasure for my design-portfolio on www.robvandalen.nl but am wondering: is there a way to add slider controls, or a ‘multiple image indicator’ to the slider on a works-page?

Some visitors are clicking away from the pages because they don’t realize that a gallery is running at the top of the page and think there’s only one image.

Hope so!

Hello Rob, for important projects use [gallery type=list … to show all images tiled (like here http://wp.alaja.info/kari/item/chocolate-goes-to-print/ )

Default-user

Thanks, got the drift! Wondering about something else: I recall reading where to alter the speed of the slider on a project, but can’t seem to find it anymore. Can you tell me where these values are located?

alaja
alaja Author

Hello Rob, you’ll need a little file modification. You may open script.js and find A.JQueryPlugins part with slider config. Please change “timeout: 9000” to any value you need (in milliseconds).

Default-user

thanks for the directions, though I can’t seem to find script.js. Can you explain where the file is located? Would have thought in de .js-folder on my server, but it’s not over there? Thanks for your quick support!

Sorry, the file located right in theme folder.
