I just downloaded the updated version of the theme. Thanks a lot for adding in the option to have taglines at the bottom of pages!
I have a questions though. With this latest update if you don’t have any slides added you don’t see the slideshow on the homepage. I set my homepage to a latest post kind of page and everything looks great, the slideshow doesn’t appear.
However, I want a tagline at the top of my homepage that’s special for the homepage only. There are three tagline options for the homepage and I can only get the tagline to show up if I select “homepage below slideshow”. However now I have a giant empty space above the tagline where the slideshow would be. Is there a way to remove that?
You can see my homepage here: http://www.japaneseemoticons.net/
One other homepage related thing too, you’ll see a giant “Home” at the top of the page, that’s the title of the page within WordPress. Is there a way to not make the title show up for only the homepage?
Thanks for any help and thanks again for the awesome theme!
Hi Peter,
There’s definitely an issue with the slider still appearing when there are no slides. We’re going to submit an update very soon, but if you wish to make the fix ahead of time, try changing line 106 of header.php, where it says: <?php if(sizeof($slider_posts) > 0): $slide_count = 0; ?> To this line: <?php if($slider_posts->post_count > 0): $slide_count = 0; ?>
That ought to fix the issue; when you update the theme, the fix will be automatically included.
Regards,
Manuel
Awesome, thanks for the help.
Hi
How do I display the Attribute Title Menu as you did in the example.
I put attributes but does not appear on my site.
Thanks.
Do you mean the menu descriptions? they can be created with a custom menu, using the Description field. If the field does not appear, you may have to open the Screen Options on the top and turn it on.
Thanks for your help.
I searched the help topic but i did not how to make a Accordion.
Can you help me?
Tabs can be made?
Thanks.
You can find our guide to make all the available shortcodes here: http://cpothemes.com/cpo-core/shortcodes
Now I know how to make an Accordion. Now the problem appeared a title does not accept words with accents marks. Have you tried using special characters in HTML but it did not work.
Any tips to resolve this?
Thanks.
That must be due to the encoding of the pages. Make sure all of the files (including the WordPress install) are in UTF8 without BOM, otherwise accents may not properly render. This can also affect the database, since the data must also come in UTF8 format.
For now, I’d recommend trying not to use accents while we try to find a way to properly render the accordions.

The site is already in UTF8 yet the accents do not appear. If you find a solution please let me know.
Hi
The buttons work as Shortcode in Widgets?
Thanks.
Normally, out of the box they don’t. If you want to have at least the text widget working, add this in functions.php:
add_filter(‘widget_text’, ‘do_shortcode’);
How do I increase the exposure time of the slide? Which file need to edit? Thanks.
Hi Insideinside, You can tweak it in the scripts/general.js file. The code is in the first lines of the file. You need to add the ‘timeout’ and ‘speed’ options in milliseconds to control the intervals and transition speed, respectively.
There is a large wide gap on the homepage between the slider and the start of the homepage content. How do I remove this? I want the homepage content to start right below the slider.
Thanks.
Hi Ejkalkwarf,
That’s due to the Features block, which has a bottom margin to space elements out.
If you’re not going to use them, try adding the following line to the Custom CSS field on Appearance > Theme Options:
’#features { margin:0; }’
Make sure to delete the quotes!
I have added that line. There is still an awkward amount of space left. What do you suggest I do?
Thanks for your help.
Hi Ejkalkwarf,
The space left right below the sliders is normally used for the pagination buttons. If you’re going to leave only a single slide, you can also reduce the slider’s overall margin:
’#slider { height:400px; }’
You can try different sizes to see which one fits you best.
Thank you very much! That worked perfectly!
Hello,
I added a separator shortcode which works, but how do I add a link to top, or does that need to be added manually?
Thanks, John
Hi John,
The separator shortcode has a ‘type’ argument. Set it to ‘top’ and it will display the button.
You can check all the shortcode documentation here: http://www.cpothemes.com/cpo-core/shortcodesVery nice theme, thank you. Would you kindly tell me how to remove all reference to Facebook and/or other social media from the slider?
Hi dkcDMD,
Whay do you mean by social media references? You can add any content you want onto the slider, including Facebook buttons or not. If you mean the social media links at the top, they’re entirely configurable from the theme options panel.
There is a Facebook icon and “blurb” showing up in the slider on the home page. The options seem to allow you to put your own info in but not to disable them from displaying in the slider and also below the Features on the home page – I found out I need them gone from below the Features as well.
I may have figured this out. Let me ask you this, did you design this theme to display social icons in the slider or below the Features on the home page? If you didn’t then I’ll look elsewhere for a solution. This is a site re-do with the existing site still in place and may be displaying from the existing site.
Hi dkcDMD,
I can’t seem to find the elements you are talking about. Could you send us a screenshot via email? you send it to contact at cpothemes.com.
I found the problem, there’s a Facebook plugin that when I disabled it, the problem went away. I’m sorry I didn’t check this first and apologize for the inconvenience to you.
A pre-purchase question. Can the blog post preview feature in the footer be moved anywhere on the home page, such as closer to the top for greater visibility?
Mike C.
Hi Mike,
The post previews in the demo are only widgets—they can only be placed on a sidebar or the footer columns.
You can make the homepage display a normal page instead, with whatever content you want and a sidebar in which you can use that widget. Alternatively, you can give said page a blog template (included), to make it show a large list of posts like a blog.
Thank you for such a fast response. A follow-up if I may. In making the home page display a normal page or blog template, will it still include the photo slider at the top? This feature is important for my purposes with the theme.
Hi Mike,
Yes, it will. Setting up a custom page as the home replaces only the portfolio portion. You’ll have:
- Slider - Features - Page Content - Bottom 3-column sidebar
Nice documentation. Thanks! However, it says in the documentation that the homepage Features can be set up in a four-column format, but I can only get them to be a three-column format. I have four Features that I would like to run across the homepage. Also, can the feature images be made to look more like the Portfolio images?
http://kernltd.com/blogHi Feline,
I believe that’s a typo, as that was a tentative feature that hasn’t yet been implemented. One way to work around this is by using a columns shortcode and manually creating these features.
Regarding your second question, it’s not possible either. The features are made to have icons or transparent images, which the portfolio items were designed with photographies in mind.
Okay. That “typo” has caused me a lot of time and money. How do you add shortcodes to the homepage? There is a four-column format for this theme (http://demo.cpothemes.com/?theme=appstract). The sky’s NOT the limit for your Features options.
Hi Feline,
I’m sorry if that was an important feature you needed for your site.
If you really need to have four columns, I’d suggest getting Brilliance instead of Appstract, as it’s a lot more flexible and we’re more actively maintaining it. We’re in the process of releasing another update for the next week, and we’ll happily include an option to change the number of columns for mini features.
For shortcodes, you can check the documentation at http://www.cpothemes.com/core/shortcodes
