I’m looking for a theme for my freelance writing website, and I really like this one.
I’m assuming the portfolio page would work for a writing portfolio? I need to be able to do two things:
1) Link to websites where my writing is 2) Upload and display PDFs (for print articles)
Also, I see some of the text on the demo site is centred. Is it possible to left align where I want to?
1, 2) You can add to content or modify the theme to create custom links.
Yes.
Thanks.
Hi! 1. I would like to make the text part of a page wider. On iphone, and in safari on a mac, the text field is not wide enough. Where can I change this? 2. May be the same solution as question 1.. How can I make the site wider? Using more of the white space on the sides. Thank you in advance.
Anything you need to change will be in assets/css/application.css
Ok, but how can I make the site wider in assets/css/application.css?
Change the widths on the wrapper. If you make the overall site wider you’ll also need to change the widths of columns to match.
Hi. Is it possible to get reimbursed for this theme? I find it hard to do simple changes compared to other similar themes. And the costumer service is not very welcoming(though fast). I do not want to use it.
Refunds are dealt with by themeforest, although I don’t think they’ll give one just because you can’t do something. There is nothing wrong with the theme.
OK, they probably wont. But my honest feedback is that I think the theme is not very innovative when it comes to doing simple changes, and that you are not very friendly. – Christian
Hahaha.
The theme is easy to use. And how am I not friendly?
You asked questions, I gave answers, how is that unfriendly? Well seeing as me trying to help is unfriendly I’m not going to help you anymore…
getting 500 errors. on live and in site preview via appearances dashboard menu list.
this url works, using the 2012 theme: http://ethnogroundzero.com/blog/ this url works, using the 2010 theme: http://ethnogroundzero.com/partners/resident-artists/ this url does not work, using the writer theme: http://ethnogroundzero.com/contact/Provided multiple links to confirm that the plugin used on this site is not the culprit. WP Theme Switcher+ allows me to, among other things, to specify themes based on URI string matches. This is what I am doing to enable these three URLs to have distinct themes for the purposes of this review.
Can you see through these 500 errors? I am not able to replicate in other conditions (e.g., another wordpress install of the same base theme, this same WP switcher which changes the theme to Writer).
Really love your theme. I’m at a loss.
Thanks,
Disable the switcher, enable Writer as standalone then send me a link so I can debug.
tried. impossible… saying at this url (which you may not be able to render) same 500 error:
http://ethnogroundzero.com/wp-admin/themes.php?activated=trueThen all pages became 500. This is from a fresh install. From a fresh download.
Server error The website encountered an error while retrieving http://ethnogroundzero.com/wp-admin/themes.php?activated=true. It may be down for maintenance or configured incorrectly. Here are some suggestions: Reload this webpage later. HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.if you need i can provide you access ofline. let me know. 500s are a bugger…
wow. installing kills everything, including the dashboard. that was unexpected.
If the dashboard is breaking then that is not a theme issue, tested locally and on demo and it works fine.
Rewrite rules on server?
Server config?
To do anything else I’m gonna need access.
I was able to resolve this. There was an issue with the theme’s interaction with Jetpack. I can get you the specific erroring files if you’re interested? Ultimately my host support (bluehost) was able to identify the source, advised deactivating jetpack and it worked.
Hello, I’ve been trying to center the portfolio items, the items are starting from the left like the screenshot here: http://d.pr/i/b93a I want to make them aligned to the center but I have no idea what to do.
Thanks!
Have you got the latest version? What screen size is that?
1) I’m using 1440×900, actually I didn’t update it because I’ve made a lot of modifications which I’m afraid to lose, I guess I will backup my stuff then I will make the update.
2) I read a past conversation between you and user who suffers from the timthumb resizing actions, I followed every step in that conversation to get rid of the auto resize but still I have no idea
3) In the demo portfolio, the items shown as 3 in row, how to get that?
I really appreciate your efforts, thank you.
To remove timthumb you need to edit inc/slider.php, inc/portfolio.php and template_portfolio.php. Remove the call to timthumb and just leave the featured_image part.
The portfolio shows 4, 3, 2 and 1 row depending on the viewers screen size as part of the responsiveness.
To change that you need to edit the CSS media queries at the bottom of assets/css/application.css
should I just delete this? http://d.pr/i/W17

Hello. I’m having the same issue with images on the homepage slider being cropped / scaled. I have read and followed the advice on here. I assume that the ZC being set to ‘0’ is in slider.php ? I set that and then uploaded an image that was the size of that area. The images are still zoomed and cropped.
Surely there is a way to make this happen. Just a nice, clear, non-cropped image on the homepage.
Thanks
Remove timthumb altogether if you dont require it. Leave the line with just $featured_image0 as the src.
OK, I will try that but where would i find the relevant lines of code ? I buy templates because code isn’t my cup of tea so a pointer in the right direction would be appreciated. Thanks.
No worries.
You’ll need to edit inc/portfolio.php and template_portfolio.php
Look for the img tag in each and remove that whole line and replace with this:
Ok. I went through and changed the code on those two pages and I have been uploading images of all types of sizes but it keeps zooming in and cropping them if they are large or small, tall or super narrow. Way too much time to get a slideshow running. Any idea what might be happening here. I can give you logins if you want to take a look.
Thanks.
If you’ve removed the timthumb code then the theme isn’t resizing them…Have you check Wordpress’ default media settings?
yes, the code has been replaced in the two files your mentioned above. the default media stuff for wordpress is the usual ‘small 300, large 1024” but when i am putting the images in the slide i just say ‘keep at the existing size’. The image area looks to be 870 X 400, correct ? I just uploaded one exaclty that size and it has zoomed in on it again.
Whats probably happening is that your images are too small and the CSS is upscaling. Add whatever width/height you want in each media query.
1.) I have more than one page with a portfolio on it (eg “photography” and “illustration”), but I can´t make two portfolios? Just one portfolio gallery… 2.) How would I put a text above a portfolio? Or this not possible?
Thanks!
1. The idea is to have a single portfolio and then use the ‘filters’ for each type.
2. You’d need to add the text directly in template_portfolio.php
A customer bought the theme “Writer” here and he ask me to configure it now.
The problem is the “Slider responsive”. Not the picture, only the div around the picture is responsive. What can i do, that the image in the slider changed the size when resize the page?
Ok, i think you don’t have an answer. But the next problem with the theme is the install of other slider. I tested over 10 new free and non free slider, but the theme not allowed this. All slider don’t work.
I need a Answer
Thanks
You need to comment from the purchasing account.
I can’t login with that account. Sorry, but my customer directly has bought this theme. Please answer my questions. Thank you
Sorry but without purchase verification there is no support. This is for obvious reasons, people asking for support having acquired themes for questionable sources.

It is responsive. The image is to set 100% width which means it will fit the parent div which is responsive.
As the theme has a slider adding others may conflict.
hello thx for your answer. the slider on the “home” page is responsive that´s right – but: the image doesn´t work responsive according to the slider. Take a look what i mean: http://www.immovaria.net/immo2013/ an resize the page or take a look at iphone an iPad? so what is going wrong?
Works fine.
I presume you mean the cropping of the image?
Well there is not much I can do about that, there is no way I can code for every single image size that may be put in the slider and if I set it to 100% width and 100% height then anyone that inserts a small image will have issues with it upscaling and pixelating.
The only way around this would be to get your developer to customize the media queries for you.
If you manually resize all your images to be the same size then the developer could scale down accordingly in each query.
hello, i want to purchase this theme but im wondering if its possible to create a background color for the menu and if used with woocommerce if the addition of a woocommerce.php file if it will work well with this theme?
You can change or add any color simply through CSS. Woo commerce not tested but I don’t see why not.
As another commenter said – I can confirm a conflict with Jet Pack. I got the white screen of death – disabling either Jet Pack or the theme brought the site back. But of course white screen causes loss of access to the WP admin controls as well so you have to FTP in and change the theme name to get back up.
Despite the adjustments that were included in the theme I also found them on the light side, and the CSS not commented, or naming-conventioned well enough to allow my middling CSS skills to easily make adjustments. A little tough to use unless you like it right out of the box – or are very skilled in CSS.
Though if you’re a developer I’m sure it’s fine.
The CSS is commented and so is the source. I’ll check out why Jetpack conflicts.
Hello. Is it possible in the portfolio, when a filter is selected, make the other items that fade to disappear instead? And how? Thank you.
Open assets/js/application.js and look for the //Portfolio filter section.
In there you will see this:
$('#portfolio li.filter_item').each(function(){ if(!$(this).hasClass(filterVal)){ $(this).fadeOut('slow').stop().animate({ opacity: 0.1 }, 500); } else { $(this).fadeIn('slow').stop().animate({ opacity: 1 }, 500); } });Change the opacity: 0.1 to opacity: 0
Obrigada, I did .hide() instead and it’s perfect.
Oh no, it’s not, when I press the filter it’s ok, appears only the ones I want but when I move the cursor to click it, shows everything again. Any suggestions? Because if I only change the opacity the space of the item it’s still there and I really didn’t want that.
