Nathan,

I have looked through this thread and not seen my question answered. So, here it is: How can I change font size when editing pages? I see that I can change from paragraph format to different headings, but I want to stay in the “paragraph” font, just make it larger.

Thanks, Anna

room122

Hi Anna, If you want to just add a single paragraph of larger text wrap it with the shortcode [heading]...[/heading]. Check the documentation for more on shortcodes.

If you’re looking to increase the text size on a site wide basis… You’ll have to edit the base.css file.

Default-user

Thanks for your help. One more question: How can I make the slider automatically progress and loop? I opened the flexslider.css but didn’t see where I could modify looping, animation speed, or slideshow speed.

room122

Hi again… The slider should loop automatically. If you want to adjust the settings you’ll have to open the plugins.js file and find the code for the slider. It’s commented.

Default-user

Hmmm…. I re-uploaded the your current plugins.js file and saw where the animation speed, looping, etc. was enabled However, when I go to my site (students1inchrist.org) the slider will only advance manually. Any ideas as to what the problem could be?

room122

Try opening the header.php file and look for the line <!- Page Slider -> Under that comment remove “slideshow: false” and the comma at the end of the line above it.

Default-user

That worked perfectly! Thank you again.

Nice theme!

UPDATE : this issue appears to affect all versions of IE.

There is a minor problem in the demo in ALL versions of IE on the homepage and work portfolio section. On the homepage, the preview images never display—it just shows the cycling “loading” graphic. And in the work portfolio section, they don’t display until you filter by a category.

I’m really like to use this theme on a project, so hopefully this is a quick fix. It’s great that you are supporting back to IE7 since there are (unfortunately) still a lot of people using it. Most of the comparable themes I’ve looked at are IE8 +, and some even IE9 +.

One comment: you can use the Developer Tools feature in IE9 to test this in all of the targeted IE versions. Just open the developer tools window and change the browser mode to IE7 . You probably know this already … but just in case.

Cheers.

room122

Hi there, Thanks for pointing this out. Something must have effected IE performance in one of the recent updates. Check the demo now, in IE. The images should be loading. I’ll be posting an updated file set later today.

room122

Okay… The update has been posted. Images should be loading fine in IE on the current download.

Very beautiful theme. One question – can i use pictures AND videos from vimeo in slideshow lightbox? I would like to shoe video and also some more detailed images for the same project if that’s possible.

thank you.

room122

Hey thanks… You can use videos (Vimeo or YouTube) and images in the portfolio galleries (details page and lightbox).

If you wanted to use a video in the slider, I would place a screenshot of the video there, and link it to the video’s page.

Hi there,

Any plans or advise on incorporating adsense etc into the theme. I’ve played around with a few plugins but haven’t found anything that properly works with the theme (unless I’ve just configured them incorrectly)

Hi, me again.

Is there a way to link the slider on the homepage to a specific post. So that people can select it and be taken straight there?

Cheers

NB

room122

Hi again… Currently there is no way to link the slider. But I plan to add that feature in the next few days as your not the first request I’ve received for this functionality.

nick_beale

Awesome, will keep my eye out for that one.

Hi there, Thank you very much for the theme, I enjoy it very much. Great design. I purchased the html files without knowing of the wordpress theme.

Is there a way that I can upgrade to the wordpress? I am finding that the jquery for things like the twitter feed and blog comments is not built into the code and would like very much to use those features.

room122

Hi there, I don’t know if there is a way to upgrade from one file set to another on ThemeForest. You might try contacting Envato support to found out. There may be an upgrade option that I’m not aware of.

Hi, I have a serious problem, I have configured my website with this template but in the portfolio, the project types do not react well. I’ve been hanging artwork on order in various project types and links in project types or do not work or do it wrong. The fact is that when carrying two entire categories yeah that worked. url: http://cristinaserrano.es/wordpress/?page_id=421 Thanks

room122

It looks like there is a problem with the categories. Does every category have published projects assigned to it?

Default-user

yes

room122

I took another look, and see the problem. You have multiple portfolio pages, with pagination links at the bottom of the page. If you go deeper into the pages and then sort you’ll see projects that appear for a category that might have been blank on a previous page.

To solve the issue, try sorting your projects so that each pagination page has at least one project for each category, so that when that category is clicked it doesn’t appear empty. You can sort your projects by changing the publish date.

Default-user

I’ve gotten all art works classified in project types, there is no empty category, and I realized that if there is an empty project types does not appear in the menu illustration. The only thing is that I can put all the work today, and the date is the same, but it seems weird. I can send you a print screen with the categories to see related works.

Default-user

Now I understand the problem. The links on the bottom of pages containing the works, but if there is a page that don´t contains works in a category, it is blank. Would be nice to remove the page (1 2 3 4) from the menu on the bottom, for in menu “all” appear all my work, so click on a category to view all jobs in that category.

room122

Hi again, the pagination links are there to keep the page from being too long when dozens of projects are entered. If you’re comfortable doing so, you can edit the template to show all projects and remove the pagination.

Default-user

Hi One option would be what you say, that as a last resort is not bad. But it would be better to send the projects types links, the order that meet all the works that are part of that category, regardless of which pagination links they are, this is it possible? Sorry for my English. thx

room122

Hi again, the fix would be to reorder your projects so that there is a project of each category on every page. There’s not a way to bring projects from other pages when clicking the sort buttons.

Default-user

Ok, then I Would like to know what I have to change to delete the pagination links, and then I could to organize my artworks correctly. Thanks again!

room122

Okay, in the 4col gallery template you are using delete the code below from line 16:

, ‘posts_per_page’ => 12, ‘paged’=>$paged

Near the bottom of the page delete:

<?php get_template_part( ‘pagination’ ); ?>

Understand though, that you can solve the issue by reorganizing your projects, versus going in and deleting code.

Default-user

The problem is that although I Organize my projects, when someone click on a project type will only see the projects you are on that page, and I want them to see all the projects that are in that project type, so if that function will brings you many problems, I can fix with deleting the pagination links.

Default-user

I have deleted the code that you said, but now they are all projects that were only appear on page 1 with the code entered.

room122

Great! Glad you got it worked out.

Default-user

I’m sorry but you do not understand me. Still I have the problem, I have deleted what you said but not all the projects, only 12 projects listed, and I have 41.

Now, instead of erasing I have the following:

, ‘posts_per_page’ => 60, ‘paged’=>$paged

but I have another problem, only work 3 links of the 5 I have in project types.

Could you have a look and see the problem?

http://cristinaserrano.es/wordpress/?page_id=421#

I’m sorry to be so heavy, but I need to fix problems thx

room122

I’m afraid I can’t be of much more help without seeing the wp admin. Would you mind emailing me your login info so I can take a look? Also, if you don’t mind, change 60 back to 12 in the template, and I’ll show you the solution I was talking about in the beginning.

Hi there,

Back again, this time about the ‘Un Altro Latest Posts’ widget. I had it setup to appear in the footer similar to your demo. However, it won’t display thumbnail images if they are hosted externally. Is this correct, is there anyway to get them to display there?

Also, out of interest, when you make updates to the theme is it a case of redownloading the latest version from here, or will I get a notification in WordPress itself, similar to when plugins etc get updated?

Thanks

NB

room122

Hi Nick, When you’re setting thumbnails as externally hosted images, they aren’t being uploaded to the server, and the various thumbnail sizes aren’t being created. So the image for the “Latest Post” widget doesn’t actually exist. You might try downloading the image, and then uploading it to the WP post and setting it as the thumbnail from there.

Regarding updates… When one is made, you have to redownload it from ThemeForest. I’m hoping that TF adds a feature that will notify all who have downloaded the theme in the near future… Currently you receive no notification.

nick_beale

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I’ve found a plugin ‘Generate Post Thumbnails’ that automates that process for me for new posts. It’s also been a godsend as it also does it for all previously published posts!

I’ll make sure to keep checking TF for any updates you make.

Thanks again!

NB

room122

Awesome! Sounds like a good plugin.

Hey i just purchases your theme.. I have my own tiled background that I would like to use… how do I do that?

room122

Sure… Just replace one of the default images in the images directory with your tiled image. Then make sure that image’s number is selected in the admin.

Eliteoomph

hmm can’t get it to work…. I have the background texture changer on and the image is there but when I click on it, it does not work… you can check it out here… http://tinyurl.com/d8j4av4

room122

Whichever texture you have selected (say it’s number 3)... go into the image directory and replace number 3 texture.jpg with your own. Just make sure the file name stays the same.

Eliteoomph

yes I replaced bg-opt1.jpg thats why you can see it in the link I posted above… Is that not the right file that I need to replace?

room122

Oh, I see what you’re doing. You can turn the slide out bg changer off. That’s really for demo use only. You want to select a background from the options panel in the admin. And the file you need to replace in the images directory is titled “page-bg-1.jpg”

yeah…. i know i can turn it off, i just turned it on for you to see the new image was there… gotcha… since those were 500×500 it through me off but I replaced that with the small tiles image and it works now.

Thank you for your help!

room122

Awesome! Glad you got it working.

Minor bug, easy to fix.

In: themes/unaltro/admin/shortcuts.php

For the “column3_last” shortcode: The function is returning “col-3-mid” instead of “col-3-last”

The shortcodes still work, but it adds extra whitespace to the page. This fix gets rid of that.

Awesome theme BTW !

room122

Thanks for the heads up! I’ll fix this in the next update release.

Best, Nathan

Hi, me again.

Any update on when the next update will be released? I’m looking for the capability of linking the slider on the homepage to a specific post. So that people can select it and be taken straight there.

Cheers

room122

Hi Nick, I’ve been tied up this week. I plan to release the next update early next week. I’ll shoot you a message when it’s posted.

Thanks!

room122

Hey Nick… The theme has been updated to allow for links in the slider. You’ll need to update admin/custom-post-slider file and both home page slider templates.

nick_beale

Awesome! Work’s perfectly. Thanks again!

How can i change the slider transition time currently it is around 5 sec would like to set to 3

room122

Hi there… In header.php you’ll see where the sliders are being called via JS… Just add this property ‘slideshowSpeed: 3000’ to whichever slider function you want to change the speed for. 3000 = 3 seconds.

Eliteoomph

I added it here like so <!- Main Slider -> $(’#main-slider’).flexslider({ animation: “slide”, controlNav: false, slideshowSpeed: 3000 }); but this caused the slideshow to not show up at all…

now I can’t get the slideshow to appear at all… I reverted back to the original code… not sure what is wrong…

updated: also tried replacing with the local version of header.php and same result.. slideshow had vanished…

room122

I took a peak at the site again, and it looks like the slider is working. Were you able to get the timing you needed for the rotation?

One more thing…. if you look here on the portfolio page http://tinyurl.com/8m5e9nk

You see there are 12 images per page… When you click on pets on page 1 it shows nothing but on page 2 it shows a pet… I do not like this because noone is going to think to do that…. Is there a way to fix it or change the numbers of images on one page so that there is only one page?

room122

Currently, it will show all available categories regardless of whether there is an item on the current page. I’m working on a fix for this, and will be releasing an update later this week. My hope is to disable the categories when there are no items on the current page.

Eliteoomph

I wish it was as easy as just turning off pagination… or allowing more images for pagination and setting a very high max… or course then the problem still exist that within these gallery you can not scroll from one photo to the next in the lightbox. That is a feature that my client requires.

ok because of that problem I am just disabling the portfolio style page and instead using a dropdown menu with different categories (pages) My only problem is that there is not a scrollable lightbox that appears when I using the default wp gallery. I downloading a lightbox plugin that works but now the responsiveness doesn’t work well..

What do you suggest?

room122

You can turn off pagination by simply setting a high number for this setting on line 16 in the portfolio template you are using.

‘posts_per_page’ => 12 —> Change 12 to 100

To scroll from one photo to the next in the lightbox change:

else { echo ‘prettyPhoto’; } ?>

to:

else { echo ‘prettyPhoto[pp_gal]’; } ?>

You’ll find this around line 82

well two more things I guess… Is it possible to make the testimonials slider slide on its own? and if so set the slider transition time as well..

room122

You bet… add the property ‘slideshow: true’ to start it automatically… and ‘slideshowSpeed: 3000’ to set the time. You’ll find the javascript at the top of header.php where you can add these properties.

Eliteoomph

I changed this property ‘automatic’ : false, to ‘automatic’ : true,

and it seemed to work just fine

room122

Awesome… Glad you got it working!

I have noticed here http://tinyurl.com/8cfwa5j when I scale the page width down that the last image stays square and messes up the responsiveness of the theme… What can we do about this?

room122

It looks like the thumbnails on this page are not the right size for the 4 column layout? How were they created? You can see the same layout here: http://www.room122.com/demo/unaltro/work/portfolio-4-column/ Notice how the thumbnail images are larger. Are you using the 4-col page template?

Eliteoomph

I just added them via the gallery… But they gallery lightbox will not let you scroll to the next image so I have to use a plugin which might be the problem…

room122

The plugin is definitely the problem… See my previous reply for that solution.

Also, feel free to email me when you have a series of questions. It helps me to keep things straight so I won’t miss any requests.

Thanks, I would also like to remove the gallery from the homepage.

room122

There’s a template for that called “Slider Only”. Just choose that one for your home page in the drop down menu on the right in the wp admin.

I noticed the slider is not sliding on my end also..
