It possible to host video from local ?

Hi

Yes, it’s possible.

Hello ! After customization I have problems with users playlists.

From what plugins users playlists depend ? I try to install these plugins again.

Thanks.

Hi

User Playlist is only available when you use BuddyPress

Sir, I love this demo and wish to purchase it. Before i go ahead i wish to know few things. 1. Can user create their public profile, signin and editing profile facilities? 2. Can user upload the videos from their device to our sites? 3. How does Paid add work? does it allow user to signin and purchase no of adds and make the payment, is recurring payment option available? 4. Will the website track the location and show different video in the homepage, country wise popular videos?

Thanks David

Sir, Sad to know that such a wonderful theme has no video uploading option. It has almost everything. I wish to know if any plugin could help me on this… In demo details it says “self hosted videos”, does it mean video uploaded by admin in media library?

Thanks

Hi

Admin can upload videos in media library. However, we recommend using a FTP client to upload videos as they may have big size. Uploading via web may not succeed.

Hi! Love the truemag theme. I changed the color theme to LIGHT, but the dropdown menu stills black. How to change the dropdown menu to LIGHT theme too? Thank you!

Hi Toninhocajueiro,

Thanks for your comment.

Please add this Custom CSS segment in Theme Options > General > Custom CSS below
#top-nav .dropdown-menu{
background-color :#FFFFFF;
}
You can change your color in “background-color”

When I add a new video post it does not automatically fetch the videos data, so I manually enter it in. However when I update the post the information is no longer there?

Hi

The information is fetched when post is saved. If the “Do Not Fetch” checkbox (on the right panel) is not checked, it still tries to fetch data and if it fails, post information is empty.

So make sure check “Do Not Fetch” checkbox

How come the thumbnail images for the vimeo videos are always low quality. The size of the image is the same as the demo images but they appear degraded and low resolution?

Hi Sethdafoe,

Please check your Visual Composer configuration again. It is because that if the small layout with 4 columns is used, a sidebar has to be used.

If it does not work, please send us an admin account + url to our support system at http://ticket.cactusthemes.com/ so we can help you check.

Can I make the grid smart content box larger, as in the same or similar size to the header grid box.

Hi Abdullah1995 ,

Yes, it’s possible if you place Smart Content Box in a full-width page and turn on Row Stretch in Visual Composer. However, It will make your image broken on your website as SCB does not prepare such large image sizes.

How to show category style “smart content box” on the homepage ???

Hi

I’m not sure I understand your question. You can use Smart Content Box shortcode with parameters to display posts from a specific category only

Hi,

Is there any way to create a landing page only with slider? So, the first page will have some full screen slider (without menus and other stuff on regular homepage).

Thanks

Hi

Unfortunately, True Mag does not have any page template without menus and header. You could create one by copy the front-page template in /page-templates/ folder and edit it.

Best regards

CactusThemes

Ok, thanks.

Hi

Thanks for using our theme. I’m not sure I understand your questions correctly. Do you mean to use Blog on homepage? Please go to Settings > Reading > Front Page show latest posts.

Hello sir,this is my last question before buy your beautiful them.Sir see my image then u will understand what is my question its very important for me because i get 80% visitors from facebook. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B6xxVZXi6LyrN0xOaVBoOTdORWM/view?usp=docslist_api

If i embed a video from dailymotion for my website and share it in facebook it show play button logo.But problem happen when i emded video from YouTube and then share it on facebook it only show a feature image no play button. Sir, if i add a play button as a logo for first 1 second in my every video by using video ad plugin.Than i think share feature image will show a play button logo. Sorry for my bad English.

Sir what do you think it is possible.. I am waiting for ur reply…Best wishes for your them.

Hi Abdullah1995 ,

You cannot add Play button as logo by using Video Ads plugin because when it is shared on FaceBook, it only gets your post thumbnail of video.

Do you want to play videos on your FaceBook directly? If it is true, in this theme, we support your video post to be played on your FaceBook. And it is default that the Play button icon on your post will appear when it is shared.

views and sometimes likes take forever to update from real time reality. Any way to make views and such update in real time? or faster?

Hi

It’s because of the caching plugin that you use. You can reduce the cache expired duration

Hi, When clicking on a video link, I’d like to have a playlist screen like this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9ixrt8lq296z219/1.PNG?dl=0

instead of this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jy6qhc3hov2pl1g/2.PNG?dl=0

It’s seems to be related with ‘series’, ‘channels’, ‘playlist’ or something. Quite confusing. Please help.

All I need is that playlist to appear on the right side of the video.

Thank you.

Hi Bunraka ,

Thanks for your comment.

1> Unfortunately, in TrueMag theme, we do not have such feature https://www.dropbox.com/s/9ixrt8lq296z219/1.PNG?dl=0

But, you can completely create your playlist or series page by following tour document below http://doc.cactusthemes.com/truemag/#playlist

2.

- Playlist: a collection of videos that users have favourited (added to playlist)

- Series: a episodes of videos.

- Channel: channel can contain multiple videos and playlists

It’s easy for you to distinguish each element.

I got a notice in my email that there is an update available. When I login to wordpress i do not see the update. Please do update through wordpress.

Hi

You can just override the old files. All settings remain. Don’t worry

Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

Destination folder already exists. /home/sminix84/public_html/teenboysmilk.com/wp-content/themes/truemag/

Theme install failed.

Hi

You must deactivate the old theme, remove it, and then install new one. (you can turn on Maintenance Mode during the installation to prevent bad user experience)

You could use a file manager application to upload the new one (usually provided by your hosting).

Please note that you also need to update plugins if there are new versions stated in the release logs

Hello,

It seems like I can’t login to on my website for some reason. When I access to http://videoeditor.jp/wp-admin, I’m redirected to http://videoeditor.jp/buddypress-login/

I don’t have any ways to login now lol

Hi

Probably you have installed BuddyPress plugin which has custom login page. After login at BuddyPress Login page, you can visite admin area normally

Hi, for some reason the Single Content Ad is not showing. have a look at the page http://tvfashionstyle.com/banabana-springsummer-2015/

Foot Ads also not appearing.

Funny enough, the banner I see in the homepage has an Ad Slot id 6663604572 which is not mine.

Hope for Help, I’m puzzled!

hello.. can you tell me how to transfer my data (only Video Code) to normal text post?? exactly to transfer the embed codes to a new clear wordpress.. thanks a lot..

Hi

I’m not sure I get your point. Please provide a screenshot to our ticket system at http://ticket.cactusthemes.com so we can check

I’d like to creat a site with a videoplayer that plays the latest video from a post of a specific category. I now I can do this with a slider, but then I have the “view more” button on the right side and I’d like to put another content field next to the videoplayer.

Hi Imstfilm,

For video slider, TrueMag theme only supports 3 following styles:

http://demo.cactusthemes.com/truemag/classy-slider-3/ http://demo.cactusthemes.com/truemag/home-page-classy-header/ http://demo.cactusthemes.com/truemag/carousel-slider-2/

You could go to Theme Options > Front Page > Header Style to configure your slider or do it directly on Page Edit > Front Page settings (with front page format).

In the order to “put another content field next to the video player” , you need to modify theme’s code.

Unfortunately, we cannot help with this customization work

Thanks and best regards

PRe sale question.

1. I want to use your video theme combine with my wishlistmember plugin http://member.wishlistproducts.com/. now my question,is there any way the video will only accessible to those who are members only?

2.And if there’s someone will click the video they will ask to register first before they can view the video. is it possible with your theme?

thanks

Hi

Thanks for your interest.

Currently we do not support WishListMember plugin integration. You will need to check the plugin’s description to know if it will work on all themes.

We provide a Player Logic feature to do that. You will need a shortcode (provided by a membership plugin) to check if users has logined to view the video. Please check: http://doc.cactusthemes.com/truemag/#other_settings_player_logic
