Hey twi,
awesome theme and brilliant support you’re offering here. I’m not sure whether this question has already been answered, but:
Is it possible to deactivate the background-image-slider post specific post? Or maybe just deactivate it for all the post, and just leave it active for all pages (the ones in the footer)?
Best wishes,
Nik
Thanks for the kind words 
Are you talking about the background of the whole site? If it’s the case, I’m afraid not, but you can for example for each post give the same basic background image for post, and the same one for each page.
Not sure if I understood your question… I hope this helps.
Thanks twi
Yeah, I’m talking about the whole site BG. My plan was to “fix” the BG on the posts, but keep it changing on the pages.
Bad luck, that won’t work out.
Thanks anyway!
cheers
RE: my last question.
I have infact done this. the button works fine with an exception. In firefox browser its perfect, on safari its position changes. I havent tested any other browsers. Any thoughts?
Hi twi.
It´s great theme, thank you. But i have one question. Can i insert video into lightbox? Or i can only insert video on page?
Thanks in advance for your answer.
Hi,
Thanks for the kind words. I’m afraid you can’t do this a this moment. I need to edit some stuff. But if you know how to code, it should be easy.
Hi Twi,
Thanks for your prompt response. ok So I think I’ve messed up completely now 
I uninstalled the template from wordpress, redesigned my logo and replaced the john doe logo in the images folder with my own one 220×70 pix.
I went to reinstall the template and this is the message thats showing?
Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
Destination folder already exists. /usr/local/pem/vhosts/155035/webspace/siteapps/31359/htdocs/wp-content/themes/minimalista-an-ajax-wordpress-template/
Theme install failed.
At the end of the themes page it says
Broken Themes The following themes are installed but incomplete. Themes must have a stylesheet and a template.
Name Description minimalista-an-ajax-wordpress-template Stylesheet is missing.
Any thoughts would be great, the rest of it I’m good with thanks a bunch!
Your don’t have to upload the whole zip that your have download from ThemeForest to install it. Unzip it, and you’ll find a “minimalista” folder.
1. Connect to your FTP , go to wp-content/themes and delete the folder “minimalista-an-ajax-wordpress-template” 2. Upload the “minimalist in wp-content/themes 3. Activate it from your Appearance panel.
Then read carefully the documentation to install it.
Hi Twi, thanks for all the amazing support you’ve given to your purchasers. I wanted to add a page link to the AJAX menu on the left and have it link to an OUTSIDE URL directly from that button in the menu.
Can I do this?
Thanks TJ
Yes you can but you’ll need to add it manually into the code. It’s not possible right now from the panel.
Hi there,
just purchased this theme, pretty spectacular btw…couple of questions though can’t seem to figure out how to change the John Doe on the footer? Also I’m just dummying at the moment but text/images aren’t loading at all and (except contact page) I wonder where I can find some documentation on customising this site. Thanks in advance for your help.
Again great job.
Thanks for the kind words and the purchase!
You should find a “doc” folder in the main zip. This theme need a special configuration (it’s easy don’t worry, it’s just no lisle the other theme) because of the AJAX thing.
To change the John Doe logo you’ll need to edit the header.php… It’s explained into the documentation too
Hope this helps!
Hey,
Thanks.
1. Still not managing to get it in the footer,. Create a page, called about, and it doesn’t show up… will keep working on it.
2. Yeah, working now after an update. Didn’t like it before for some reason (didn’t properly check what was there before).
3. 123Reg, contacted them as I think there might be an issue with WP on their end. Not sure, but will let you know.
Thanks again, Simon
Once your website is online. Send me your admin account… and I’ll check for the footer. It’s really strange! (Remind me your username in the mail please! (snazer))
To Twi & all,
Thanks for your response twi, sorted that out. Emailed you a couple of questions, nothing serious though.
To people considering purchasing, I can say that this is easy to use, even if you have little knowledge of wordpress, like me! I’m pretty much a novice but following Twi’s instructions, step by step, I got the site up and running in no time.
Couple of minor issues include:
1. How to add the ‘about’ page in the bottom bar 2. Network images (i.e. facebook, linkd in) aren’t showing on front page 3. Contacts: I’m getting that dreaded red zero (tried clearing cache etc).
As I said, they are minor points and just by uploading a couple of my photos, I think it looks ace. Great work twi, and thanks for your responses.
I can recommend this and would say to novices, read the instructions carefully, and take your time.
All the best, Simon
Hi snazer,
Thanks a lot for the kind words! I appreciate
1. You need to create a “page” to have this link in the footer.
2. Did you fill all the field from the theme options with your network profile url?
3. This is driving me crazy, I think it’s because some server but I not sure. Can you tell me on which Host are you?
Salut, This look great. I just purchased it this second.
I know I’m certainly being very stupid here but I can’t find any of the documentation which I’m assuming comes with this. To be honest I’m a bit lost without it at the moment – could you point me to where I might find it?
Thanks!
Hey! Thanks for the purchase!
It’s really strange… don’t you have a “documentation” folder into the zip you downloaded?
Can I use widgets with this theme? Is it possible to add them in a bar like the contact link shows?
Nop no widget, sorry.
Greetings TWI ,
Quick question for you:
When Fancybox opens my images, I’d like to have them be displayed at their maximum size. Right now, they’re not being displayed as big as I’d like. How can I change the code to allow this?
If this isn’t possible, how can I deactivate Fancybox so I can install another lightbox that will allow me to do this?
Thanks for your time
My website is thirdhorizonmedia.com
Hi, I think you need to add “autoDimensions” or “autoScale” to false into the main.js where the fancybox is initiating.
If not, your can more option here : http://fancybox.net/api
Hi AGAIN . I was wondering if there was a “suggested” size for the background images? Not sure exactly why but I am having some issues with the transitions. Starting to think this is a size related issue.
Hi there! I’m using “normal” background size (1024×682), I mean wider than higher… and it should work without problem.
Thanks Twi!
Thank you for this wonderful theme, twi.
A question for you: how can I make one of my categories in the left menu show up as a link in the bottom menu instead, with the pages?
Thanks for the kind words!
Well you’ll need to code if you want it like this. editing the footer.php (to add category link, but the same way I did for the one on the left), and the main.js (to add a click event on these categories in the footer)
I don’t have time to provide the code right now, I’m really busy
re: scroll color putting it in the css did not work
re: timthump update does this mean the whole theme is upgraded just that plugin?
I don’t have time to test it right now for the scroll color, sorry.
The 2 file updated are timthumb.php and main.’s in js folder (improvement for the background)
additionally to secure myself I am going to change the chmod settings. Can you tweak ALL in your theme or is there any script restrictions?
With the new timthumb.php and CHMOD 755 on it there is no problem.
But the problem is that on some server the 755 don’t work… and need the 777
HACKED SITE .
Hi Twi, not jump on any conclusions here but my site JUST got hacked and my initial analysis looks like the timthumb plugin has some security vulnerability.
Wondering if you are aware of this?

Hey,
sorry the hear that
Yes, I updated my template on the 2011-09-06 with the new timthumb.php. So you can download it from my package or update the timthumb.php manually.
Don’t forget to clean you WP if any other files got infected by this.
QUESTION : HOw can I change the color of the “hover” block on the js scroll pane?
Try this in CSS :
.jScrollPaneDrag:hover { background-color: #YOUR-COLOR }
Has anyone been able to fix the email contact form issue? I’m getting the little red 0 as I see many others are – not working at all.
Do you have the latest file update?
I just purchased at the beginning of the week so I’m assuming its the latest version – or do I have to manually update something?
It’s really strange… this problem happen on some server. Can you tell me on what server are you? Are you able to provide me a FTP access to your website?
I’ll try to fix this once for all.
Thanks
I had to take the contact form off temporarily (because I needed the site functioning) but I am on FatCow servers…
Does anyone know a way to set a default thumbnail image for a category (so if a thumbnail image isn’t specified there will still be a default image displayed with the preview of the post along the right side?)?
You’ll need to edit the template-ajax-retreive.php file to add this. In PHP test if the current post or page has an image… and if not print the default one.
I should add this as an update I think. It’s a good idea, thanks!
