Hello! Ok I am finally getting around to being ready for this theme. Couple questions: - The image that above the pages (like F. Scott Fitzgerald), does that have to be the same image when you press ‘page 2’ for example? - Within the story text, can you add small images as well? - Do you set the number or words or something, in order to paginate? - The index: Does this have to be A,B,C etc. Can it be months of the year, for example? - The only page templates here are the home page, and the about full page layout, correct?

- Oh one more thing. I notice the permalink does not change when going to page 2, 3, 4 etc. Is it just the “more” tag inserted for pagination? I’m asking because I’m wondering how I’ll be able to track Google Analytics on the additional pages or hits to those pages. :)

Thank you so much!

Hi there,

1. The image shown above the content is the featured image you assign using the built-in featured image tool of WordPress. Currently WordPress only allows a single featured image, so that will stay the same when you navigate the different pages.

2. You can add images inside the content. However, since this is a text-focused theme, I don’t really recommend it.

3. You can specify the number using the plugin mentioned in the video.

4. The index is organized by tag names, so whatever you name the tags will display there.

5. The index page is also a page template, but other than that, yes.

6. The pagination is using a built-in feature of WordPress. I just added an AJAX component to it. I can provide instruction for deactivating the AJAX feature if you’re worried about search engines. I don’t think it should be an issue, though.

Hope that helps!

Hello,

Great theme. My sister-in-law fell in love with it.

I’m having a problem getting pagination to work.

I have Autopaginate 1.1 installed and activated.

<–!nextpage–> isn’t working. The “force pagination” checkbox does nothing. After checking it, updating the page then shows it unchecked.

The site is SaraShrieves.com The first chapter of her book is on the front page but really needs pagination :)

The only plugins I have activated are: Autopagination OptionTree WordPress Importer

Any ideas what I’m doing wrong? :)

Thanks for using the forums and sorry for the delay. We’re trying as best we can to stay on top of things, but it does get difficult from time to time depending on the volume of requests.

Your patience is MUCH appreciated.

I’m having a major problem with my installation of the Novelist theme. Things were going along smoothly until late last week, when my client reported that the background image had changed. So, I reported the problem to the client’s web host.

Here is what the web host had to say:

This site is displaying a background image with the warning “do not hotlink images and steal bandwidth”. Our security team has reviewed this and found that this site was not compromised. It appears that the theme used from “themolitor” contains a reference to “http://themes.themolitor.com/wpnovelist/wp-content/themes/wpnovelist/images/background/background_5.jpg” and this image is being replaced by the warning that you see now. We recommend you change this reference to an image that is hosted on your site rather than referencing this from a 3rd party.

Needless to say, neither I nor the client are happy about the above. The background image was one of a library full of books. But, if it’s a hotlinked image, we’d rather replace it with one of our own images.

What can be done to solve the problem?

Hi there,

You’re using an image on my hosting/server, which technically is considered stealing (don’t worry, I’m not mad). Bandwidth is expensive and has consequences for my business when people who purchase my themes use images on my server. Recently my server has been crashing a lot and I realized it’s because users are using my images. As a result, I’ve had to take these measures of replacing the images in hopes to provide some education for users not aware of this.

My advice is to download the images you want and upload them to your own hosting account (via WordPress media upload tool). Then change the URL to the new URL you receive after uploading. If you acquired the image through importing demo content, ALWAYS make sure you click the check box that will download the images (instead of hotlinking them).

Hope that helps! And thanks for purchasing!

EDIT : I should note that this doesn’t have anything to do with my themes. This is a security measure related to my hosting account.

Depending on the location the image originally appears, you’ll need to either go to the individual post/page or go to the theme options panel and review the settings there.

Thanks!
