Hi there. When I create a gallery, every single image is displayed instead of only a thumb of e.g. the first image.

I would have expected like to have 1 gallery of the bedroom, 1 gallery of the garden, 1 gallery of the kitchen etc.

Is there no way to set the galleries like that?

Actually… what I could do is to create multiple different subsites/ galleries under my main-category called “Images”. However, then I would have the main-category to act like on hover. AKA when I click on images I expect the dropdown to appear instead of neither displaying # or nothing. Will that be achievable?

Hi there. Did I miss something or is lightbox in Image gallery not an option??

Yeah, there is a lightbox built-in. Check out the documentation under “Image Gallery & Video”. There is a section covering how to automatically turn the lightbox on.

Hi,

I’m thinking of buying this theme for one of my assignments. Can I build in a calendar that shows if the property has been rented out or now? Like from may 1st until may 5th it shows red because it’s been booked and green when it’s available.

Thanks for taking your time.

Wouter

We don’t have a built-in calendar but you could easily add-in this functionality via a plugin. Check out wordpress.org and codecanyon.net as they both have some great calendar plugins. Any WordPress calendar plugin will work great with our theme.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Oh… is there no option for sticky header on scroll??

Yeah, we don’t have a sticky header option for this theme since most information is on the homepage and the navigation is transparent. You can however easily add-in one using a plugin like this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/sticky-header/

Any plans for a mobile menu instead of the select box one? That make the theme look really dated. I’d buy it if you updated the mobile menu.

We are very happy with our current mobile menu select box. At this time we don’t have plans on changing this. One of the main reasons is that the select menu offers way better mobile support. We have tested various other solutions and get many more support requests due to devices not supporting various things. Also on a single page theme like this, we prefer a bullet-proof solution since most of the content is on the homepage.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Love this theme… Easy to modify, great documentation. And…. Fantastic response on the Support forum!

One question…. I would love to give it a 5 start rating but can’t seem to find where to do this. I can see the ratings but not where to place my rating. Where do I do this?

Awesome, glad you are enjoying using our theme. You can easily rate your theme by going to your “Downloads” here: http://themeforest.net/downloads Just find the Solus – Single Property Theme and then you can choose to rate it 5 stars :-). Here is a screen-shot: http://i.imgur.com/qfNrg5y.png

Done!

Thanks for the great review!

Hello, Your theme interested but I have 2 questions: 1) Is it compatible wpml? 2) The images on the home page (slider) can automatically scroll? Best Regards

1) Yeah, you can use this theme with WPML. The theme is ready to be translated :-)

2) Yeah, you can turn auto play on for the slider if you want them to rotate automatically.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Ok, For the translation, I can create 2 versions with flags? eg an English version with English flag set, and a French version with French flags?

Adding language flags is controlled by the multi language plugin. All of the popular solutions like Polylang and WPML have built-in flags and multiple ways to display each language. I would check the WPML documentation for more in this.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

At the bottom of the page, where the social sharing icon links are – how can I add text just above that? Thanks

You can add text in that spot in a number of ways. The easiest way is to add-in a text widget and then add-in your own text.

Hi. How do you update to the latest version? Overwrite the files via FTP? Thanks

Yeah, the easiest way is to overwrite the files via FTP. Make sure to save a backup before updating.

If you have any other questions, feel free to jump onto our support forums: http://support.progressionstudios.com

Does this theme have the option to show other agent’s listing?

We currently allow for a single property to be featured. You can re-use the homepage template if you want to feature additional single properties. However, there is no list of listings.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hello again :) We are making progress, how ever, when using the theme, and displaying the site from ipad, the menu jumps behind the box. http://prntscr.com/7d4rlp Is there a way to display it next to it, with small font, or below the box, or above it. In front, would not quite work either, there are 2 menu tabs hidden behind it.

Is there a way to change the order pictures of the slider on the homepage?

I am very pleased with your documentation for this site! Best i have seen—makes my job so much easier.

Thanks for the great review :-). Glad you like working with our theme.

Presale question…

The flex slider – can I have unlimited photos to it? or just the 5 that is like the demo?

Yeah, you can have an unlimited number of photos.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Sounds good thanks for the quick reply – I might after I purchase ; ) – nice theme by the way

Pre-Sales Questions:

The slider on the hompage was created with Revolution slider (that comes with the theme)? Also, do the images have to be that exact size for the theme layout to look correct, or can it not be as tall? Also do you have to have all the image thumbnails showing at the bottom of the slider? Thanks for the help.

1) We are not using the Revolution Slider. Instead we are using a custom version of the FlexSlider jQuery plugin.

2) The images in the slider are a cropped single size. You can adjust the height if you want them taller or shorter though. The Property Gallery image sizes can be various image sizes (Cropped or un-cropped).

3) You can easily enable or disable the image thumbnails below the slider.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks for the answers. So the height of large images on the home page FlexSlider don’t have to be as tall as the demo (which I believe is 800 pixels)? Could those images be 400 pixels tall (just as an example)? And for all the images to fill the theme layout how wide do they have to be? I love the theme, just want to make sure that I can adjust the slider to my own image size without destroying the look of the theme.

When viewing the theme on a mobile device, are they any options to move the menu from being in the middle of the slider?

Oh one more question, I see there is a static image header on some of the other pages, is this a set size or can be adjusted as well? Thanks again for your help.

1) Yes, you can have any slider height you would like. It is very easy to adjust the image size so you can play around with that and get it perfect to your needs. The images in the slider will automatically span the full browser width.

2) There is no built-in option but you could easily adjust this by one line of CSS in the responsive styles.

3) This is a set height. This one is based on the height of the page title and margin above it. To adjust this shorter, you would need to add-in custom CSS to remove the top margin on the page title as needed.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Great theme, thanks.

I installed this. I’m looking to enable the “schedule a showing” box on the homepage, but I can’t seem to figure it out. Where do I turn this function on?

Check out the documentation included with the theme for any theme related questions. The homepage section covers how to add-in content and the schedule a showing box.

Hello, i found your theme while searching for a simple, modern looking single property wordpress theme, looks good so far – but im in need of 4 different front end languages, because the clients are from wide across the world, how can i achive that with your theme, im looking for the classic ‘click the flag’ style.

Yeah, you have control of the text inside the boxes and the background colors. You can also hide them completely OR hide certain parts of it.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I Purchased your theme now. The theme recommends prettyPhoto Media, but it failed on installing, i googled it and it seems like this plugin is no longer existing. Also, i’m still searching for the demo-content and how-to import it :) Thanks in advance.

Yes, the lightbox plugin was removed yesterday but will be back shortly. In the meantime, you can download the plugin here: http://support.progressionstudios.com/discussion/11613/error-installing-recommended-prettyphoto-plugin#latest

For the import, check out the documentation. We have a simple walk-through in on of the first sections. If you have any other questions, feel free to post in our support forums: http://support.progressionstudios.com

Hi,

Does Visual Composer include on your Solus – Single Property Theme ? If not, can I install it and use it ?

Thanks

We do not include the Visual Composer with our Solus theme. You can install and use it though. The Visual Composer will work with any of our themes :-)

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi! I need to know the photos size, photo slider, photo post or pages, full width and the main header in the pages. Thanks in advanced!!

Eva

The slider size is: 1400×800, gallery size is: 800×500, header image: 1500×500. You can easily adjust any of these sizes to be smaller or larger as needed.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

I really like Solus for presenting a single property. Do I assume correctly that it would be easy to make the home page photo presentation start as a slide show (with options to stop and start)?

Yeah, you can turn auto-play on or off easily for the slideshow.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
