Hi Great Theme. Think It will be a big seller as a WP theme. I wanted to know if the theme can be centered before I purchase?

Thanks

Authentic

We added a setting in the option panel for it, Thanks! :)

Hello Matt, how do I proceed to benefit the update with the centered site (as I have already installed the theme)?

Vertical images does not resize in the portfolio, any solution? even if we see some background on the right and left of the picture.

How do you add the form (as you have in your contact page demo)?

Can I change the term “portfolio” in the url by “member”?

Is there any possibility to directly goes to the single portfolio page when we click on a thumbnail without having to go to the arrow little icon on the upper left side?

Thank you very much for your feedback!

Authentic

Hey,

1. They should resize automatically when uploaded to your site. using the built-in WP cropping function If you have old images in your media library please download and run the “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin.

2. This is a simple shortcode as explained in the documentation and it’s added like this:

[contact email=email@something.com]

3. Yes this is pretty simple. Open functions.php and change the rewrite option from portfolio to member (line 150)

'rewrite' => array( 'slug' => 'portfolio' ),

After changing this you need to flush your permalinks, so you have to go to Settings -> Permalinks and click the save button. Otherwise you will get 404 errors.

4. Yes, but you have to edit the theme files: template-portfolio.php (line 35) and taxonomy-portfolio_cats.php (line 29).

And change this:

To this:

That should work fine. Let us know if that messes up any of the style.

Hi, really likes this theme! It is possible to get a preview of the admin panel before I buy? Thank you.

Authentic

Sure,

The theme actually includes very few options because it’s very minimalistic. But here is a screenshot of the admin so you can take a look:

Also as you see on the lest the theme uses 2 custom post types: slider and portfolio.

OK, thanks. Is it possible to add video in portfolio single page?

Authentic

Currently no. We’ve created this theme for image showcasing mainly. If you want to add videos you would have to do some custom work to include and support a new meta option.

It’s a possible idea for a future update of Victoria. We will consider. Although our next theme is most probably going to include support for both images and videos :D

Hi! excatly where i need to put that contact form shortcode? If I want Contact link appearing on menu and contact form opens under that link (like in your demo page).

Authentic

You can put the contact form shortcode on any page you want. This theme uses the WP custom menu system so you can add any page, post, category to your theme.

Hello thx for the help, just the direct link from the thumbnail to go to the single portfolio page seems not working (you know without having the 2 icons showing but directly a link on th whole thumb.

“And change this: http://pastebin.com/cTrm50dF To this: http://pastebin.com/Xy1cz7At

- is it possible to multiple upload photos of a portfolio, or do I have to upload them one by one?

- my vertical images are well resized on their width but not on their height, is it possible for vertical images to be resized on their height so I can see the whole picture?

Thx for your help, very nice theme!

  • Did you make sure to change this code on the portfolio templates as well as the index.php ?

Also, if you wish to remove the 2 icons as the top this will require some additional changing.

You will additionally have to remove the overlay spans that look like this:

  • When you are uploading images via the WordPress media upload you can select more then one image, simply highlight all the images you want. However, you can’t automatically create portfolio posts using the media upload, you will have to create each one manually. Also, when you are adding images for the single portfolio sliders you don’t have to upload each at once, you can upload them all and then choose from your media library, but you do have to insert each one to their corresponding fields.
  • The issue with this is that WordPress crops images in the center of the photo. It’s a core WordPress function.

You will either have to edit your core WP files (wp-includes/media.php), which is highly NOT recommended. Or you would need to use a plugin like the one shown below to choose your cropping area.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-thumbnail-editor/

I haven’t tested the plugin yet, but it looks like it should work.

Are you sure you are clicking where it says “use as featured image” when selecting your featured image?

If so, please send us the URL in question.

Are you uploading the image via the “Post Editor”? Also, are you using a multi-site installation? If you are using an MS installation you will have to open the permissions.

Also now after i used shortcode.. there is contact form and stuff, but it doesnt work, just shows input fields and stuff, but doesn’t show any notificiation that mail is sent. And mails dont receive too.

And why there is commenting enable under contact fields? Why anyone should wanna comment under contact link? How to disable it?

Authentic

I’m not sure why your contact form would not be working can you go to our profile page and send us a URL to your WordPress install and assign us a Temporary username/password.

To disable comments on a page do the following:

Go to “Pages” > “All Pages” then Edit a Page and click “Screen Options” in the top right corner of the page and make sure “Discussion” is checked.

Now at the bottom of your page in the meta box area you will see you can un-check allow comments.

I also made quick video for you to check out.

Hi Matt, I sent you the mail under your profile page (with problems and temporary username/password).

  • Bought between 10 and 49 items

Love the theme. Question:

Is there a way to designate which projects you would like to feature on the home page? And / or a way to order the portfolio projects the way you would like it? I tried to change the date created to reorder, but it will only reorder based on a particular category.

Any ideas?

Authentic

Currently no. The portfolio carousel shows the latest items. For this reason we added the image slider at the top so you can use that to showcase your featured work.

In terms of re-ordering the projects, there is a really awesome plugin I always recommend. It’s called “Post Types Order” and you can download it here:

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-types-order/

This changes the actual order in the database without having to change the publishing date.

When you install this plugin, make sure to setup your plugin like this:

To make sure it works correctly :D

Thank you for your purchase! ^AJ

Did you checked out my page with password and user i sent you? That why my portfolio and slider and contact doesn’t work normally?

Authentic

You used the contact form shortcode incorrectly I fixed the issue you should be able to receive emails now. We are looking into the other issue you are having.
