Hi -
I like this theme very much and would like to purchase this. However, I really wanna incorporate a buddypress into my blog. Will it be a problem with the theme?
Thanks! YJ
Hi YJ,
Since PressTwo uses all standard WordPress code, there should be no issues with BuddyPress integration, there’s also a BuddyPress plugin which will automatically convert any theme to be BuddyPress compatible.
Thanks
Also – the ajax commenting seems not working. it refreshes the page after commenting instead of automatically insert the comment…
thanks!
Hi Yanjieli,
May I ask which browser you are using? In IE7 , the comments are forced to refresh the page, as ajax does not work as smoothly as on other browsers.

+1 moreAwesome theme. Thanks!
Glad you like it!
Thanks for your quick reply!
Also some quick questions – for the lower part of home page (which displays 4 columns and 2 columns of posts), are they updated with latest blog entries from each category? or entries from latest updates?
can they be manipulated into more columns? say 5.
I’m using IE7 so the ajax thing kinda doesn’t work, but no worries on this.
thanks again for your time!
Hi YJ,
2 columns and 4 columns are the only options, and they work off a specific category only. So if you set one to use the “featured” category, for example, only posts from that category will show in the widget.
Could you post further comments and questions on our forums?
Thanks
for the above question – i meant to display more columns and more rows? thanks a lot!

+1 moreHello,
I’ve got a question about the post information. I’d like to add the tag description and I’ve tried several codes, but nothing seems to work. Is there a solution? These are the used codes:
<?php echo tag_description(); ?> <?php $description = tag_description(); ?> <?php tag_description( $tag_id ); ?>Thanks in advance!
Hi IM,
I’d suggest using this code to get the job done:
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_tags
Check out that resource, under “Example”.
Thanks
Which file do you install to use in wordpress?
press-two_dev.zip press-two_single.zip
How do you find a purchase code to login to Obox?
I have already purchased this theme
Hi Travis
You need to install press-two_single.zip
Your purchase code is in the confirmation email that Themeforest sends you when you purchase your theme.

Hi -
I just made a purchase. Could you please let me know what’s the purchase code to register your support forum?
Thanks.
Hi YJ,
You should have received an email from Theme Forest which includes your Purchase ID, which looks like this:
a1s5w43ec-01c5-476d-sfeq-19057c3c1a5s
Thanks
Heya, I love your theme. I was wondering would it be possible for me to only use it as my blog? So the blog is the homepage… If so, could I then remove the top tool bar?
Cheers
Hi Alex,
Yep that is definitely possible. You can choose between three different home page layouts including a Blog Layout.
Dave
One question, is it possible to remove the popular post and recent comments on the blog posts?
Yep definitely possible. You can remove it in the widgets section in WordPress.
Dave
i’m getting this error message after installing the theme. I’m on MYSQL5
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘{’ in /homepages/30/d366216557/htdocs/rocklogik/wp-content/themes/presstwo/ocmx/includes/update_theme.php on line 48
Thanks.
Hi rocklogik,
Can you please double check that you’re running PHP5 ? All our themes require PHP5 to run.

Hi. How do I make my top menu like yours? Do I need to activate a widget or something?
Sincerely yours
You need to go to Appearance > Menu’s and setup your menu’s there
When using the widget for the homepage, I created posts with image, used the Obox image upload in the post interface and setup the widget. But the image won’t appear.
I believe this is the code generated HTML for the slider. See the Array
<a href="http://www.smartstudygift.com/hello-world/" class="thumbnail"><img title="Hello world!" src="http://www.smartstudygift.com/wp-content/themes/presstwo/functions/timthumb.php?src=Array&w=940&h=360&zc=1&f=" /></a>Hi Kidino,
You’ll just need to set the Thumbnail option under Theme Options > General to Obox Main Image, that should do the trick.
Thanks
Nevermind. OK, got it figured out. Just in case for others. I went to Theme Option > General > Thumbnail Settings … and then chose Obox Main Image. That fixed it. Thanks.
hello,
I would like to purchase this theme but had a question. Is this template advertisement ready? Or do we have to install plugins in wordpress, and if so can you recommend any for ads.
Thanks
Hi Dio,
Yes the theme has a few built in advert areas as well as a custom advertising options panel. Basically, you won’t need to install any extra plugins to get ads onto the site.
Thank you for replying. that is great it has built in advert options. I am new to wordpress so i just have one more question.
On the home page of this template it has 4 med size thumbnails to click on and two larger thumbnails below that. So when you add new content will it add new thumbnais in addition to these existing ones, and the home page will just grow longer, or will the new posts be filed away within the preset homepage layout.
Hope i am making sense.
Thanks for the help
Hi Dio
That 4column widget can be set to display the latest 4, 8 or 12 posts. It won’t grow in the same way a blog page does but instead display the latest items only.
Hope that helps, if you have any other questions please let me know.
Dave
Great theme. I was wondering, is there any way to switch the way the slider changes? I was hoping for maybe a fade effect instead of the swipe. Thanks.
Hi JJ,
Changing the slider from a left/right slide to a fade is not very straight forward, it would require quite some custom work to the jquery file, however one of our Approved Modifiers can get the work done:

Thank you for the fast response. I was wondering if it was possible to link to custom URLs from the slider images?
-Thanks.
Hi JJ,
Changing the post links to custom links would also require some customization of the theme.
Thanks

This theme says it hasn’t been updated since 2011, is it still compat?
Yes
