Thank you for the support so far and I have some more questions.
1. What is the custom CSS to change the featured image, shadow gradient opacity level, that you mentioned in your previous comment 11506981 ?
2. I want to change the bottom of the posts to show comments as default instead of the leave a reply box. Can this be changed?
3. How can I change the primary menu to display an image in the background instead of a solid primary color from the theme panel > style > general tab?
Thanks again, PTB.
Where’s the support? It’s been 4 days and you haven’t replied to my questions.
Hi,
Probably your message has been missed. Sorry for delay. Here is answers for your questions.
1 – Tweak opacity level using these lines. 0.25 is lower level, 0.8 is higher level.
Drop it on Theme Panel > Style > Custom CSS tab.
For recent sticky post.post-sticky-a-yes-thumb a > div:before {
background: linear-gradient( to bottom, rgba(17,17,17,0.25) 0%, rgba(17,17,17,0.8) 100% );
}
For thumbnails
.post-t6-yes-thumb a.post-thumb:before,
.post-t10-yes-thumb a.post-thumb:before {
background: linear-gradient( to right, rgba(17,17,17,1) 0%, rgba(17,17,17,0.25) 100% );
}
For featured image
.post-title-with-img:before {
background: linear-gradient( to bottom, rgba(17,17,17,1) 0%, rgba(17,17,17,0.25) 100% );
}
2 – Custom CSS:
#comments { display: block !important; }
#tabs-comments span:first-child { display: none; }
3 – Try this one:
#menu {
background: url("http://yoursite.com/image.jpg");
}

Igor,
Thanks for the CSS information.
1. Featured image in posts looks brighter. I set the gradient to 0.9 and 0.0
2. Comments are now displayed as default, very good.
3. The CSS does not cover the whole banner, only the menu area. How do I have a background that covers the whole banner such as the blog demo?

hello, i noticed in your theme you use the “original” image for og:image tag
sometimes the original is too big and then it’s not used by facebook.
the best is to use a cropped size to fit everytime with facebook guideline.
where i can find the function that add the og:tag to modify it ?
best
Hello,
Such functionality comes from Yoast SEO plugin. You can set Facebook image for each post via Yoast SEO metabox on a Post page – http://c2n.me/3tsGakA.png
Enable Yoast SEO metabox in the Screen Options – http://dl1.joxi.net/drive/0012/0377/807289/160126/7235982516.jpg

Hi,
Most likely you need to re-fresh cached files on your CDN.

hello, since the update of stkit 1.8.2 the ads sidebar is not showing anymore . i have some line in widget menu instead of the ads 1,2,3 sidebar ….
Oops finaly was adblock that block the display of the sidebar inside wp-admin widget page option cause the name of them…. adblock disabled and it shows again ….. lol
Hi,
Great. I’m glad you’ve found the cause.
Regards, Nat
First off, huge fan of this theme.
When I set a specific homepage, the Pagination breaks. The link shows that the link will take them to /page/2 but it just takes my users to the homepage once again.
my site – http://russellenvy.com/
When you visit a category, the pagination works 100%.
working pagination – http://russellenvy.com/category/life/
I’ve narrowed this down to the home page template. When there is not a specific static page, the navigation works. When I go into the read settings, and change the static home page to recent posts, the pagination works 100%.
I have a staging site that you can verify all of this on. My host is on WPENGINE. It’s not a caching issue, because staging on WPEnging does not cache.

Thank you for finding this. I downloaded the query.php file that was suggested and used ftp to push the changes up. Working 100%. Thank you, love the theme. Very proud to sport it.
Hi,
Great. You are welcome. Let me know if you need more assistance.

I am disappointed with the theme. The titles on my posts are too long and cut off on to the next line with a hiphen (-). The sticky posts are not showing. I have 4 posts selected as sticky and the setting is activated in the theme panel, but the posts do not show on the front page. The post image is cut off at the top and merged into the header. All my post images load full size instead of in a lightbox window. How can I fix these issues?
Hi,
1 – Titles come with hyphen option. If you need to disable it then you can drop this line on Theme Panel > Style > Custom tab:h1,h2,h3,h4,h5,h6 { hyphens: none; }
2 – Make sure you’ve done:
- The frontpage installation – http://strictthemes.com/shockmag/how-to-set-a-slider-on-frontpage-as-on-live-preview/
- And all settings for sticky posts – http://strictthemes.com/shockmag/how-to-set-a-slider-on-frontpage-as-on-live-preview/
3 – Let me URL or screenshot. I’ll take a look and let you know.
Regards, Igor
Good work, that fixed it. I have some more issues. 1) At the bottom of the frontpage, I click on page 2 to load more articles and its keeps reloading page 1. I can’t load any articles on page 1,2,3 etc. 2) How can I change the text on the frontpage and posts so it is aligned with the pictures, no indent (padding).

Hi,
It comes from ST Kit plugin thus you need to translate the related files at ../wp-content/plugins/stkit/assets/lang/ directory.
Regards, Nat
thx perfect
I updated ST Kit on my site and I started getting errors check my site at ssn.co.zw. Please assist
Manage to fix this by including the options.php file in the child theme.
Where can I see header options? How can we change headers?
Can you please also provide pages with different headers in your demo?
Hi,
You can change a header template from within Theme Panel > Layout > Header tab – http://dl3.joxi.net/drive/0012/0377/807289/160111/f65e7d7a00.jpg
Take a look a different headers on Live Preview:
- http://strictthemes.com/shockmag-1/
- http://strictthemes.com/shockmag-2/
- http://strictthemes.com/shockmag-3/
Regards, Nat
hello, i just updated the theme for header option, but unfortunately the “header” option page is blank and ST kit website to update to the new version is down :/
thx it works now (it wasn’t before)
Shockmag has unique and fast layout. I give reviews on WP themes and Shockmag is one of the best template I recommend. For developers: You should be more bold in advertising its SEO & advertisement optimisation. Don’t forget to boast about its Page Speed. This theme should generate lots of sales.
Hi,
Thank you for your feedback. We truly appreciate it.

Hi Guys, Great theme and enjoying using it. Could you let me know how I can change the banner spot. Can’t seem to find out how. Regards Les
Hi Les,
Ad spots come from Ad Sidebar #1..#3 (Appearance > Widget page) and ad sections from Theme Panel > Post tab (Below article, Above article, Below Title).
Regards, Nat
that replace my css custom by st-ignored-taxonomy-post-v-1 instead of st-mega-taxonomy-post-v-1
finaly i founded, need to set the permaliink different than /?p=123 (default one) should be inside you documentation
Hello,
Great. I’m glad you found the solution. Thank you for suggestion.

Hello, the issue does not receive the updates automatically. I have also generated many API Envato but without success.
Hi,
Envato API has been changed, thus you need to update the theme manually through the standard way (Appearance > Themes > Add New > Upload). Also you’re receiving update notifications by email. In future we plan to make another solution for new Envato API.
Regards, Nat
