Hi Chris- I love the theme. I’m new to the child theme and am wondering if you could help me with it. I’m trying to use a repeating image for the topbar, what would be the css code for that? I was using: #topbar { background-image:url(‘paper.gif’); } I’m not very familiar with css, sorry.
Thanks for your purchase, that would be the correct CSS .
Wow, thank you for such a quick response. Hmmm, I’m not sure what would be wrong then- it didn’t seem to apply the change. Any suggestions of something I may have missed?
Without jumping into your code/changes I really couldn’t say why its not applying the bg image. Make sure you’re using a absolute path like:
http://yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/lofty/images/skins/paper_1.pngI am using an absolute path. I’m sure I’m missing something so simple. When I use developer tools in chrome and delete the background color code it then shows the image that I want to use. Here is the exact code in my child theme stylesheet:
@import url(”../lofty/style.css”);
header #wrap { background-image:url(‘http://ecbiz122.inmotionhosting.com/~stjame16/wp-content/uploads/2012/05/texture_mojo.jpg');}
I’ts done. Congrats and good luck with sales.

How can i display portfolio in menu?
Go into Appearance > Menus > Custom Link > url: ?post_type=portfolio > Add > Save your Menu > Apply to Main position
I can’t figure how to setup homepage. Homepage no display slider, call to action, etc, afteter changue it in the theme control panel.
Go into WP Lofty Options > Bottom left Reset Options and you’ll be good to go.
I’m in the same situation as Angelgb81. The portfolio is not added as part of the menu using the sample data, nor can I find a shortcode for it. Templates don’t mention it either. How do I add the portfolio to match the sample live demo?
Thanks.
—Nevermind. I forgot to select the proper Menus in the Appearance > Menu section of WP.

Hello there
i have a few presale questions:
Can we change the text box (A resposive & feature rich…) to 2 boxes – each including one pic and intro text – linked to a static page that talks about some stuff?
Does the theme have a recent post widget where we can define from which categorie the latest posts are pulled ?
Those are actually just plain text widgets, so you can have anything you like in that widget area. It doesn’t come with a recent posts widget with a category option, however I can include this in the next update.
Would be awesome if you can included that option
How have you setted the up the recent post section on the frontpage if there is no widget included ?
does the theme come with xml file to get it looking similar to the demo?
Yes, its comes with a dummy content file.
How to view sinlge category?
Links to certain category display all blog posts.
You’ll need to add your categories to your navigation via Appearance > Menus
The problem is categories template show all post, no categroy posts.
Thumbnails not generated for portfolio sections in home, portfolio view and category view.
Take a look through:
http://www.elegantthemes.com/troubleshooting-timthumb.htmlTimthumb work ok for slideshow and first image in post, but not for portfolio sections in home, portfolio view and category view.
Problem solved. Select “Display Auto Post Image” in theme options.
Tags and Categories inks dont’t work for me.
Do you have an example?
Try this:
www.enfokate.com
Categories and tags links display all posts
Taking a look at your site I see you only have one category:
http://www.enfokate.com/?cat=49I have multiple articles in diferent categories, but category page only display all articles:
For example:- http://www.enfokate.com/?cat=49
- http://www.enfokate.com/?cat=48
- http://www.enfokate.com/?cat=40
Same issue for tags. For example:This articlies are from diferent categories but template continues list all of them
Hello Chris, I have a few questions due to some bugs I encountered.
When I insert a big image with a caption into a post, the caption causes the image to go beyond the 100% width of the article container. It creates a div around the image which you can’t control with css, because it sets the width in inline-css. Trying a workaround like setting the image to width=”100%” and height =”auto” causes the image with caption to shrink to a size of a thumbnail. Again caused by this div which the caption creates.
A second problem is that when you open the image in a lightbox (by adding the rel=”prettyPhoto” to the image), the image description will not be shown. You see the text ‘undefined’, even though the image has a description.
A third problem I encountered is that when I add a blog-post-image, it looks great on the homepage but on the single post page the blog-post-image gets cropped instead of resized to width=”100%” and height=”auto”. This cropping ruins the blog-post-image when viewing the post.
How can these three problems be solved?
Thanks in advance for your feedback.
Hello Chris, Another small bug: the child theme’s style.css gets loaded before the stylesheets of the Lofty theme are loaded (instead, it should be loaded after Lofty’s stylesheets are loaded). Now you can only apply your own styles for overriding for example layout.css by using !important; for every css value…
Hi, i’ve uploaded to my server without any trouble. However, when i wanted to insert a sub page to a parent page, it will appear above the parent page button at the main navi. I might be executing the wrong move to create a drop down menu. Kindly advise. Thank you.
You’ll need to create your navigation under Appearance > Menus and you’ll be good to go.
Hi, i’ve figured out the drop down menu. Got any question regarding the video embed. The video doesn’t seems to appear on the post created at the portfolio. Any suggestions?
Are you adding the video in the post content area or the video textarea?
Yup, my bad… thanks for your replies
However, need your advice on the categories section. I have 2 categories, eg: CAT A and CAT B . 2 posts labelled as either one of the categories (no duplicate). Under menu, i inserted the category menu for eg. CAT A , when clicked, it showed both posts labelled CAT A and B.
I assumed the ideal scenario should be: CAT A menu link will only show posts labelled as CAT A category and likewise for the rest of the posts with their own categories. I’ve been figuring out almost a day. Kindly advise.
Great theme! Thanks. Very versatile for different client businesses.
One question that I really hope I can get an answer for as my clients are cyring the same thing… How can I get rid of the ‘Resize Me’ image at the bottom right?
That actually shouldn’t be there, replace your css > base.css with http://pastie.org/private/hkq3sxf2lsmvjguzmylfkg
Hi, I’m working on a website for a client and using your theme, but I’ve run into a few issues like the others.. for one, the lofty css file overrides any child theme’s css, but I just used the skin creator’s css box instead of !important declarations. Also, I am completely clueless as to how the index page is displayed.. I’d like to just add more content blocks such as the “Clients box” besides the default 6 to choose from but have no idea where to go to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
