BEAUTIFUL THEME! Is it possible, to only enable ONE sidebar? Thank You
Hi, Thank you very much for your interest. Yes, its possible to remove one sidebar and use only one sidebar. Some users have already done that and there are full instructions available on the support forums on how to do that. Once you have purchased the theme, you can register on the support forums. Also if you will need any help, i will be happy to help you.
If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to ask.
hi , how to get Next , Previous button on the image . any chance to get custom image buttons like hand symbol .
Hello, The single image has the next and previous image links. You can add the styles for the links in the style.css file to make the links into the buttons. You can use Firebug tool to see the css classes for the next and previous links and then add the styles to it. If you still do not know how to do, let me know and I will further guide you about that.
Hi there,
Last question! (just about to finish our website!) We are using “Wellthemes Carousell”, it works fine at 3 columns view (main+2sidebars), also works fine at 2 columns view(main+sidebar) but not working at 1 column view (main) the widget dissapear. and we cant find the reason… we can’t show you yet our site because it’s not yet online.
Tell me if I didn’t explain it clearly.
Hello, The carousel widget does not appear for the small devices. If you want to make it visible, you can look in the media queries which are in the end of style.css file. There you can look for the carousel class, it would have display:none. Simply remove that and then it will be visible.
I would like to select only 3 or 4 categories in the slider settings (the default settings only allow all categories or just one). How can I do this? even if it is necessary to change the code. Very grateful!
Hi,
You can modify the posts loop for the slider to get posts from multiple categories. Here’s hoe you can do that:
Open feat-slider.php file from the includes directory and look for this around line #18
Replace that with followingWhere 2, 3 and 4 are the categories IDs, use your own category IDs.
In demonstration of this page getting the sidebars below the main conluna they always have to leave the sides as well as the demo? (http://0.s3.envato.com/files/46755824/tf_preview.__large_preview.jpg
Hi,
Thank you very much for your interest in my theme. Can you kindly explain your question. ?
live preview of the theme in the two sidebars are getting down. I wonder if you like the sidebars were always on the side as well as the ad image. I’m using google translator.
how have you post Screenshots of the theme configuration page?
The theme has the responsive layout. When you view the theme on the small devices, the sidebars appear below the content so that the content has more focus. If you wish you can remove the responsive part and have the same layout in all devices. That is very easy to do and I can help you with that.
If you would like to see the screenshots of the configurations page, send me an email through the contact form on my profile and i can send you the screenshots by email.
Ok very good. so excuse the question because I’m really interested in buying this theme. But I can only use two columns? and because the theme carries different in google chrome and internet explorer on the same computer? one carries complete with menu and an image of the house as the home button and the other as if it were on a mobile device?
Hi, The theme has same layout in Chrome and other browsers as long as their window size is same. If you want to remove one sidebar, you can easily do that by making a few changes in the theme. There are complete instructions posted on the theme support forums. If you have more questions, let me know.
Hi! Great theme…how can I reduce the speed of the sliders in the sidebar?
Thanks. You can change the slider speed in the custom.js file which is in the js folder. There is slider configuration settings in that file. If you are unable to locate, let me know.
Hey! I can change the speed of the main slider. But I can not figure out where I can decrease the speed of the sidebar sliders. Which line has to be changed?
For the sidebar slider speed, look for this line around line # 21 in the custom.js file.
Change the 5000 to 6000 or 7000.Hello! Your theme is great!!! I want to have the thumbnail to be full width in the top post boxes but i cant find where to adjust the width could you help me with that? And if this isnt possible how can i have a different background for every top box? I change the background for #top-stories .box:first-child{} and it works but if i add #top-stories .box:second-child{}with another background it does not work. Could you be so kind and help me with that? Thank you in advance for your feedback!!!
Thanks.
If you want to use the full width images in the top posts menu, the best idea would be to define a new image size in the theme. Here’s how you can do that:
1. Open functions.php file from the framework folder and add following line around line #89In the above line 100 is the width and 75 is the height. You can set any width and height as you wish.
2. Open the style.css file. Add following:
#top-stories .attachment-wt-top-thumb{ width: 100px !important; height: 75px !important; }In the above code you should use same width and height as you defined above.
If you want to change the box background image, look for this around line # 420:#top-stories .box { background: #EEEEEE;Change the background color there.
Thank you very much for the reply!!! (about the image size)I tried that and unfortunately it did not change anything, and i still have not got it working…Could you please look into that again? And another thing about the background, i meant i want different background for every one of the top stories boxes not the same in all of them.Can you look into that too? I really appreciate the help and thank you in advance!!
Hi, The code which I mentioned above should change the background of all boxes. You will need to change the #EEEEEE to the color you want to use. If you want to use different background image for each of the box, you can do that too, but you will need to make small changes in the theme.
For example you can use a different css class for each of the box and then define the background color for each of the class. Or if you do not want to make any change in the theme file, you can simply use css property nth child to set the color for each box.
For example:
#top-stories .box:nth-child(1) { background: red; } #top-stories .box:nth-child(2) { background: green; } #top-stories .box:nth-child(3) { background: blue; }Paste this code at very last line of the style.css file and it should work.
Hello again. This didnt work either. I copied your code to my css but the backgrounds did not change so i tried something else. The only thing that works is ONLY for the FIRST box.
top-stories .box:first-child{
margin-left: 0; background: red; }
this makes the background of the first one red. but it does not work for the second when i add this
top-stories .box:second-child{
margin-left: 0; background: green; }
It is really important to me to either have different backgrounds or full width images in the top stories so i would really appreciate any further suggestions. Thanks again for your help!
I had tested the above code and that works totally fine. Make sure that you place the code at the very last line in the style.css file. If it still does not work, send me your URL by email. You can send email using the contact form on my profile.
I sent you the email. Thank you again for your help
I sent you the email.Thanks again for the help
Sorry for double post. And i figured it out your codes does work properly. It was a stupid mistake by me. Thank you for your tremendous help and support. Awesome theme and support!
Glad to hear that. If you liked the theme and support, please remember to rate it. You can rate the theme from your downloads page. Thanks.
Featured Posts Slider Animation issue resolved
There is an issue in the default: \wp-content\themes\wt_metro\includes\feat-posts.php Around line #292 remove
-[data-stops=”100%,50%,0”] to resolve the issue Half-Stop Slide. This issue is allso in http://demo.wellthemes.com/metro/ – demo theme under the <Recent Posts> Widget. Wellthemes, please, verify if I am right.By the way, I have a post in wellthemes.com forum about “Image resize for sliders” by marabou.dev. Please help me.
Thanks.
Hi,
That’s not the bug, thats how it is supposed to be. It stops at 50% as you can see in the data-stops. If you want to change or remove the stops, you can do that.
Hi!! Congratulations for your theme!! it’s wonderful!! I have to ask you 3 questions:
1) How can I put a banner in the “head”? 2) How can I change the language in “Contact”? I have to translate to Spanish and I dont’ want fields named ‘Name’, ‘Email’ and ‘Message’ to appear on the page (I want “Nombre”, “Email” and “Mensaje” to appear instead). 3) How can I translate in the top-post “x days ago” text to Spanish text?
Sorry for my English!!
1. If you want to place a banner in the header section, open header.php file and simply paste the banner code there. For example you can place the code on line # 153, before the main-menu div.
2. You should be able to translate the contact form fields in the theme translation file (same file which has the translation for the theme), if you want to translate the jQuery error messages, you can open the page-contact.php and translate directly there.
3. You should be able to translate x days ago in the theme translation file, but if you want to change directly in the theme, you can change it in the functions.php file from the main theme directory.
Hi again… I need your help, in a simple issue. In “feat-post.php” I just want to display in div class=”wide-slide” only 2 images in the slide (the featured image + another one, uploaded to editor) I think this could be edited in the line “while($image_count <= 2)” changed to “while($image_count <= 1)” It’s ok? Ihope for your comments. Thanks in advance!
Can you please login with the same account you used to purchase the theme or you can register at the support forums and post your question there and I will get back to you soon.
Two questions! (still loving the theme
)
How can I enable pagination on longer posts? I’ve tried a few bits from the Wordpress codex to enable it and even some plugins but it doesn’t seem to be working.
Also, the tags that appear beside articles on the front page. At the moment this displays them alphabetically. We’d much prefer to pick what tags are shown. Is this possible and if not can we disable the tags appearing?
Thanks!
1. If you want to paginate the longer posts, you can try using the
quicktag.2. That is possible, I will include that in next update. If you want to change that right now, send me an email using the contact form and I will help you making the changes in the theme to achieve that.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the reply.
Using the next page tag, but the buttons are appearing in an awkward place, just below sharing buttons and author bio. (example: http://www.krank.ie/category/society/tom-cruise-the-irish-scientology-protests/) Any way to position it simply at the end of text?
I tried WP forums, but the would not help because it is a premium theme.
Hi,
The page numbers are appearing correctly, this is the bio plugin which is being placed at wrong place. I haven’t used that plugin but you can try to see if that allows you to change its position. If it does not, you can try to change the page numbers position, for example place it in the beginning of the post.
Sorry MR. wellthemes, me and nneeggrroo are working together, so I ask you again the same question
nneeggrroo 20 hours ago Hi again… I need your help, in a simple issue. In “feat-post.php” I just want to display in div class=”wide-slide” only 2 images in the slide (the featured image + another one, uploaded to editor) I think this could be edited in the line “while($image_count <= 2)” changed to “while($image_count <= 1)” It’s ok? Ihope for your comments. Thanks in advance!
Sorry for the confusion.
Hi,
Thanks for posting the question using this account. That’s right, if you will set <=1, it will display only 2 images in the slideshow.
I create custom posts and non of post shown at Featured Posts at home page. Please advice.
Are you creating custom post types?
yes
hello? no response and it is very disappointment for your support.
Hello, Please give some time to respond. I try to reply as soon I can.
If you want to use the custom post types, you will need to modify the posts loop. For example if you want to display the custom post type posts in the featured category 1, here’s how you can do that:
1. Open feat-cat1.php file from the includes folder and look for this code around line #32:
$args = array( 'cat' => $cat_id,Change that to:$args = array( 'post_type' => 'portfolio',Now it will get all posts with of portfolio post type. You will need to make same change on line #114 on the same file. Similarly if you want to include the custom post types in other featured categories, you will need to make changes in other files (eg. feat-cat2, feat-cat3 etc).
If I want to use a custom background. How should I do? What is the alternative css-code to enter? Also which size for a background is preferred?
Thanks!
You can easily use the background image or color you like. You can simply add in the style.css file. Please register at the theme support forums and browse the previous topics, there is complete information on how to use background image or color in the theme.
Hi again, i have yet another question. How can i change the color of the letters in the top stories? They are links but i want them to be a different color than the links in the rest of the page. Thank you in advance.
To change the links color in the top boxes, you can add following:
#top-stories .box a{ color: red !important; }Thank you so much, your support is unbelievable.
which font was used in the logo?
Thank you!
Hello, The font was Open Sans.
Hello, Sorry my english. I have 3 questions: 1-Can I change the size of the slider? 2-Can I use two sliders in home? 3- Can I change the color of the boxes of twt, facebook, weather widgets?
Hello,
1. Yes, you can change the slider and any other elements in the style.css file.
2. Yes, you can very easily use another slider on the homepage. Here’s how you can do that:
Open the ‘includes’ folder, and copy the file feat-slider.php file in the same folder, name it feat-slider2.php.
Open feat-slider2.php file and look for this line: Change it to: where 1 is the ID of your category you want to display in slider 2. Now open the index.php file from main theme directory and add this line where you want to display the slider:3. You can also change the background colors in the style.css file.
I will recommend you to use Firebug, which will help you to know on while file and line the existing style is defined, so you can easily change that.
Rated 5 stars for your great theme and support. I am trying to make the #top-stories .box {} link to the post for each box but i cant figure it out can you help me with that? Thanks again in advance!
Thank you very much for the rating. I didn’t understand what you are trying to do with the box. The post title inside the box already links to the post.
I mean that i want the whole box to link to the post not only the title. For example anywhere that the user clicks on the box, should link to the post.
Please add < in the start of the above line, and > in the end (because it won’t let me type that above)
Then look for this around line#66. Add following after the above line:There’s no space after < in above line.
Hey again thanks for the timely response. But there is a problem. When i add the code you suggested, it just messes up the top stories, and does not make them links. I have heavily modified the css for the top stories so maybe this is the problem. I am new at this so i have not quite gotten the way it all works. What do you thiink causes this?
inside the /div class=”box” ........./div (is what i meant) *
Nevermind my friend i solved it in another way. Thank you for your support
!!
Hi, at feat-post and featured-cats, how can I change the overlay level at the main image? Also I’m still getting an error at rigth tiles, it only load the featured imagen and the first tile show: text>image>split image (see image link: http://s14.postimg.org/ksj7prtsh/tile.png)
If you want to change anything in the images overlay, look for the .overlay class in the style.css. For example for the featured categories, the overlay class is around line #1079. Similarly you can look for the overlay class of other sections in the style.css. Regarding the animation, that’s how it is meant to be. There are different styles of animations, one of them displays like that.
and how can I change the animation style? because I dont like wuen the upper image shows splited… it’s weird…
Open widget_recent_posts.php file from the includes folder and search for this
around line #240. Change that to . See if that helps.works perfect!!!! but text preview still apear, how can we show only images?, we have already set a feat image and another image inside post, but only one shows (feat image).
Hi again… this is my last question =) : I have a problem with “widget_carousel”. This is the situation: I created a new sidebar, it only appear with css “media queries” in a ipad screen: (@media only screen and (min-width: 660px) and (max-width: 1023px)). I added a widget_carousel in this new sidebar, but this widget doesn’t appear when I load the PC screen and resize it to Ipad format. But if you reload the page (f5) it is shown well. Why?
In resume:
Why this widget only appear when I refresh the browser? Is there a problem loading widgets with inicial display: none?
