Looks nice, good luck!
Thanks!
Does it come with demo data ?
Yes an .xml file containing the demo site is included. Once you install the theme, notifications in the back end are also shown for additional steps that you would need to do. e.g. set a menu, create wp’s upload’s folder, etc.
Hi Iam interested to buy it. Any examples on Internet, online I means… Regards
Nope, the theme was just released a few hours ago. Check out the screenshots in the theme info for a preview of the admin panels and some screenshots. The demo site (http://themes.mas.gambit.ph) also contains everything there is about the theme (shortcodes and how to use them, etc) as well as a preview panel for changing backgrounds and colors for the theme
Check out the other comments, some of the have links to some of the buyer’s sites
I have been following your themes for a while, and they are the perfect solution for what I want to do. Do you plan to increase support for this theme? In the past, that has been the only reason I haven’t purchased. I am not trying to be critical, but just wanted to share some info from a willing buyer.
Hi Peter, I previously changed my focus from themes to iOS games, hence the unfortunate decrease in support. Now I’m back to themes! (too much competition with the big guys joining the industry) Currently, there’s a lot to make up for.. I need to update all the themes since they’re way outdated (wp 3.4 or below) all of the other themes will have a feature base the same as MaS, and I need to get support up and running smoothly again. It’ll take a bit of time to get everything up to speed.. but for starters, MaS is going to be well supported as it’s going to be the basis for all the themes.. with the other themes following suit as they get updated in the days to come. The support forum will be shutdown and won’t be used temporarily, I will be providing support here in the comments section for now.
Welcome back to themes! Looking forward to seeing MaS get up to speed. The world needs multilingual, responsive, attractive themes like yours. I see you’re based in the Philippines as well, right? I send my support from Thailand, and my money as well when you get things going.
Thanks! Awesome that you’re based here! For this theme, there’s no worries about support as I’ll be providing support from the start.
I like your MAS theme and plan to have it replace my current. To be sure; is it possible to have a home/landing page that consist only of a large full width background page with a transparent text box on top a la lundsten.net?
Yes the landing page is not fixed and can be any page you want (full-width, sidebars, a page full of blog posts or a portfolio page). You can’t however make it look like lundsten.net, the layout would still follow the MaS layouts (a header box with either an image, slider or video with the menus on top, or no header box)
Can you fix that? I have a problem with your layout on iPhone 5:
http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/827/img0085x.png/Hey, thanks for pointing that misalignment, must have missed it. I just fixed it. It’s now applied to the demo site. The new version with the alignment fix will be available after TF reviews it
jep it is fixed now
Very nice theme!
Thanks
Hi, does it works also with Arabic language and rtl mode?? Regards
It’ll work with arabic but i’ll have to research about how to properly implement RTL for now, sorry
When do you think to work on rtl mode, so i can plan to buy it?
Not sure, I’m trying it now but it seems that this looks like a lot of work
I have exciting news, RTL is now supported in v1.1! I’m uploading the update now so it should be reviewed and downloadable in a day or two. The whole list of changes in v1.1 is listed in the theme’s info page
Thank you!
v1.1 is now out
Hi, is there a possibilty to turn off the language selector icons until I have the languages ready?
Yes when you’re still doing your translations, you can turn off the site-wide language switcher flags in the admin. You can check out the video tutorials on how to do your translations, it’s unbelievably easy!
Thanks.
I purchased this theme but did not receive the theme to download, contacted the envato support team several times but have heard nothing back in 30 hours. Dissappointing.
Head over to your downloads tab, you’ll see the theme there
I did that, still no MaS theme there. A support ticket was issued, but I never go a response. Checked my spam folder, started another ticket, nothing happening. I am wondering if they are just ignoring me.
Hmm, that is weird. Sad to say but I can’t do anything on my end and it’s up to support to answer
I doubt they’re ignoring you, it usually takes them a few days to answer
Thanks anyway.
Hi, Awesome theme, but I’m having trouble with the Nivo Slider. It keeps creating an empty slide for every image slide. How to I fix this?
I’ve already started over and tried creating a new Media Slider, but the issue keeps repeating its self.
Here’s an example of what it’s doing.
http://wordpress.mediabattles.com/Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks, Eric
When editing your slider pagemedia, either use the upload button on the right side of each ‘image’ field, or paste just the URL to your image
Oh also, try using images of the same dimensions (no specific width & height, as long as they’re the same) so that your slider won’t change its height on each slide
Thanks for the reply.
I’ve tried all the things you suggested above. No change, the slider still creates a blank slide for every real slide. All my images are the same size i width and height.
Kindly private message me your wordpress admin login details from my profile. I’ll take a look.
Hey,
Thanks for the support. I just sent you the login details.
Got your email! The cause might be CloudFlare’s settings, hopefully the instructions I sent will fix the problem
Awesome thanks! Yep, CloudFlare was the problem. It’s all fixed now.
Great!!
First off, love the theme, everything is going great. I have just one question, and forgive my cufon ignorance. However, is there a way to “turn off” cufon, or add a font to the list. Overall, I’m not happy with the choices.
Thank you, Anthony
Ah, turning it off may require some editing. Adding a new one may be easier. To add a new one, upload your .font.js file to your wp-content/uploads folder then use it in the code by editing the file make_a_statementv1.x/application/controllers/script.php and implementing this: http://pastie.org/6165610
What font are you going to use? I’ll try and add that to the list. If you have any more suggestions on Cufon fonts, let me know too
Worked like a charm! Thank you. The font is Asul, and you can see the results here: http://haverstraw.wpengine.com. It is still pre-launch, but now I think I just need to get the menu to fit and load the content.
Thank you, and here comes my 5 star rating.
Thank you, Anthony
Ooh nice! and thanks for the rating! Don’t forget to change background color of the captions of your pagemedia slider. It’s currently orange
Hello! Super theme
A quick question…I see you can create sidebars…and in the demo it shows a page with a right sidebar. I have created a new sidebar in the MAS theme options and put some widget content in them. I can’t see how to associate the sidebar with a page so it shows….sorry maybe the instructions are there somewhere and I missed them.
Thanks
So lovely to work with this theme!
For pages, when editing your page, scroll down below your content editor to the additional options tab named MAS ? Page Options. Change the Sidebar location from full-width to either left or right sidebar. A new option should show up where you can select the sidebar to use.
For sidebars in all blog posts visit the theme’s admin panel Posts, you’ll find a similar option there. Then for all portfolio items, Portfolio.
Good morning, I have an error message but I haven’t modify this theme : wp-content/themes/make_a_statement_v1.1/library/modules/BFI_Thumb.php on line 329
Best regards, Tang
I would like to ask for more info on this error. Can you paste the exact error message? Are you using a windows server? What’s the url of the image you’ve uploaded (the image where the error message shows in-place of it)? Can you message me all of those info as well as your ftp details? This is the first time I’ve encountered this and I’d very much like to figure out what causes this asap
Thank you. I send you a private message with all informations.
The site is fixed! The server was issuing warnings for when the image resizer was checking where the images were located. The warnings are now suppressed. The image resizer doesn’t anymore iterate over a number of folders, and now only checks the uploads folder and the theme’s folder. The updates I performed on your end will be included in the next version
Thank you !
Loving working with this theme. Have just had something strange happen … please visit this link to see my clients website : http://www.emissaryresources.com You will notice that I have tried to insert an email signup form and had to resort to putting it in a col3 and then a photo and text flowed around the side of it. But the strange thing that happened is below that, where I’d previously had 2 x col2, the second column moved under the first and I have tried a number of things and can’t work out what happened. The two columns need to be side by side and I wonder how to get them doing that.
Personally I’d also prefer to have the email signup on the right side with the photo and text content on the left 2/3rds of the page. Is there any way I can manage this please?
Thank you!
Please see reply on the newer comment
I believe the problem may be with the form, its width is fixed and it doesn’t play well in a smaller container. Try the page with your col3 & col23 column content again with your form inside the col3 column. But this time add this to your custom styles (in the theme’s style admin panel):
.af-form { width: 100% !important; }When loading the website makes use of the petition “cdn.jsdelivr.net” and takes a long time to load the main menu of the web so that navigation is slow in general. Could you integrate all major scripts on the web? Ideally these basic files loaded by our own hosting…
Thank you!
In a global scope, it’s faster to use a CDN rather than loading scripts from your own server. The CDN jsdelivr has a reliable and fast load time, plus it saves you bandwidth
It’s quite hard to compress all the scripts into a single one (especially in a theme), since the loading of the scripts depends on the usage of the theme. e.g. if the Google map shortcode isn’t used, then it isn’t loaded. Some scripts though are always called (e.g. menu, jquery, and lazy load), but unfortunately we cannot combine these scripts because of a few reasons:

This is a very nice theme! I installed it here: http://www.umzugsvergleich.com but i have some problems with the CDN
In most cases the files from the cdn load very slow and you have to wait until the styles are loaded. What could be the problem?

I have a new question,
When adding a new field in the contact form from More> Contact, how I can do to assign an icon to input? On the other hand, what I can somehow indicate the size of input? Or even put several inputs on one line.
Thanks!!
You can add multiple additional contact form options by comma separating them. e.g. “Option 1, Option 2”.
For now you cannot assign an icon. In the future I will put in a provision to allow shortcodes in the field so that you can use the icon shortcode. However, this will be included in the next version.
v1.2 is coming, it has the ability you’re asking for! You can put in an icon shortcode in the additional contact form options! For example, you can do a
Thank you for adding this new feature in the theme!
I suggest removing the mobile version provided by jetpack. I found this in the plugin’s support: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-turn-off-mobile-site
I tried posting the site in FB, and the initial image shown is a square thumbnail. Looks like it’s working!
Thanks for the info and checking on fb. Perhaps my cache now needs to clear. Really appreciate your support, you’ve been great!
No problem! Hope the slider works after the fix!
You’re a champ! Thank you
Mobile site fixed after turning off Jetpack. Thanks for the handy link 
Awesome!
Also ever since I downloaded the latest version, the text in slider has changed what it does. Now, when it changes slide, the new text appears where the old text was (ie bottom right or wherever) then shifts to the correct position I selected…and it does this from slide to slide.
Thanks! Appreciate this is a brand new template and you’re ironing out a few bugs on what is a superb template.
Thanks!
You’re right, that was one of the fixes that is supposed to be coming. I just noticed this myself a few days ago. Can you try and replace your /wp-content/themes/make_a_statement_v1.1.1/application/models/pagemedia/nivo.php with this one: http://pastie.org/6209880 that should fix it
Perfect, thank you…fixed
This is fixed in v1.2 which is coming now. The theme will also be an all-in-one SEO optimization solution!
You go beyond…you really do! Thank you
This is a pretty amazing, powerful theme. I got my site up in no time – the creator really gave a lot of thought to meaningful features! The theme is uncluttered and easy to use and the admin panel easy to understand. I am really grateful for this comprehensive theme, the documentation was also very helpful. Only question I have – how could I upload a favicon?
Thanks!
Thanks for the praises!
You can upload a favicon via FTP to your WordPress’ root directory. Hmm, might be a good idea also to add a favicon uploader next time
favicon uploader going into v1.2 as well as an all-in-one SEO optimization solution!
