Reaction WP : Responsive, Rugged, Bold

Lol! Thanks Chris You know the drill… holler when you have a question or spot a feature that you think would make the theme better.

Cheer! Brandon

Thanks Delta!

Thanks a lot Philo! (long time no hear man!)

The animation was initially an accident; I was trying to add padding to the last-child in the nav list and forgot that I left my transitions on for the nav… long story short, the slide effect worked nicely so I dressed it up with some color and acted like I meant to do it

Cheers! Brandon

It’s been a while indeed! Busy times!

True… well, sorta – the traditional blog template is, well, traditional (because lots of people enjoy using the tried & tested layout of content + sidebar). With that said, there are three included “hybrid” blog options with feature different layouts, as well as several individual post options (like the ability to flip colors and remove the sidebar altogether). So yeah, it does the generic stuff you would expect a theme to do, then it does something extra if you’re feeling frisky

Thanks Boost, it’s greatly appreciated

Thanks Mass!

Thanks Duo B

Sure – I’m pretty sure that’s just a simple parameter add on to the slider, I can see whether or not it’d make sense to add this as a theme option, or I can show ya how to edit the skeleton-key.js file to make it work that was as well

Thanks! Brandon

Is that a good “ahh” or a bad one? Thanks for dropping by crozer!

It is as good as it could be. Your new minimal-grunge style really mimics the one I have also recently adhered to, so I really, really like it.

Aside from lots of small typographic details and general styling stuff (new backgrounds, etc.), the main differences include:

• A Host of new responsive features not seen in previous SS themes
• 3 Brand new hybrid blog templates
• 4 New Homepage Spaces, fully customizable.
• Alternate Navigation bar placement and transition effects.
• Brand new styling across the entire theme, all built on the Skeleton core, so it’s perfect whether you’re new to SS or are transitioning from another SuperSkeleton theme.
• A brand new, responsive “To the Top” plugin, perfect for long pages on cell phones.

In the long run, some of the stuff like the bonus blog templates and the “to the top” plugin WILL make it back over to SuperSkeleton. The major difference here is the navigation styling and the new homepage modular stuff which lots of people requested (and which will be exclusive to Reaction).

Hope this helps! B

Great – video works with all pages/posts and I’ve had a few buyers already use this with FitVid.js to make responsive videos. You can also launch videos via any thumbnail on the theme to a lightbox using Vimeo, Youtube, .mov files, etc. Long story short, it works quite nicely

yeah tried downloading 3 times, same problem. thanks for getting back to me so quick. I’ll lookout for you email. cheers.

Yeah I’m getting the same thing on my Download page as well – I’m reuploading the entire ZIP as we speak – I’ll email you when it’s done with the fresh copy as the reviewers often take an hour or two to approve the new file for download.

Thanks for the heads up! B

Email sent if you emailed me (I’m not sure which email address is yours)

It sounds like the ThemeForest zip was corrupted, I’m uploading a fresh zip file as we speak and I’ll also be glad to email you a copy right now if u want to leave your address here

Thanks, that’d be great! zrodimel@gmail.com

Ok – emailed ya! The file was definitely corrupted – just verified it for myself New file should be up in a few minutes. B

Yep – there are color changers and pickers throughout the theme options panel So you can get an entire new color scheme just by clicking a few options.

B

Okay, I just emailed from it. It doesn’t have a typo. Weird.

If it bounces back, its okay. I can wait another hour.

Yup – still bouncing back, but the new file is already up as of about 30 seconds ago – try redownloading the file now B

New theme ZIP is already up – Thank the ThemeForest review staff for fixing this right away!!! Go ahead and grab the new zip as usual from your download page

Hi Deyson!

Yes, but it’d be what I’d consider as an advanced modification as it’d require a fair bit of CSS and PHP to set this up reliably (presuming that each post would have a “download” URL , you’d also need to properly position the new button and assign the proper transitions, tooltip, etc.). So yes, very possible… but I wouldn’t recommend the customization unless you’re pretty comfortable making these sorts of advanced changes

Hope that helps! B

Yes, via the caption in each slider B

Thanks a lot Henry! The comment is appreciated all the more B

Not a bad idea at all Auto – I’ll add this in for the 1.02 update… how it’ll likely work (at first) is that we’ll insert some “mini” icons into the top right of the super-header (aka, the top hat) as there’s a high liklihood of there simply not being enough space right next to the navigation. Still, we can make them “pop up” as bigger icons when we move them into the responsive mode… so this should make for a nice balance. Let me know what ya think – Right now I’m working on a few other small issues for 1.01b and b, but I’ll be starting the official 1.02 update on Wednesday once I’ve collected enough of these feature requests.

Cheers! Brandon
