Hi Lubos, can you help me please with a header setting set up.I am using a third party directory plugin called business directory. Sorting out issues i now don’t have the featured image in the header as before. I understand it’s not your issues directly. Would you talk me thru the header settings as it was showing the featured image in the header for the individual business a few days back. Now I can’t get that feature to work. I did a reset a day back to clear out another issue I am enjoying working with your theme. web: touradelaide.com

Hi,

not sure if you sorted it out, but I do see header images on your site.

BTW, you have an issue with your icon in Firefox. This is a known issue with some hostings.

Lubos

Hi Lubos, what is the exact issue with the icons. I am using Firefox and it all looks okay here

They are not displaying for me in Firefox. Again, it is a common issue, please follow the article to resolve it. It is a hosting related thing, not a theme one.

hi there, i am very interested in your townpress theme and have a questions please.

does it have a business directory where i can add different businesses in different categories? if so, when you click on them from the top map, could it take you to a business directory page?

Hi,

this theme doesn’t have a business directory.

Lubos

The background image slider (driven by Theme Options > Header Settings > Slideshow Images) is working great on desktop browsers, but there is no animation/rotation on mobile devices (phones or tablets): it just keeps the first image static. Is this by design? Is there a setting to control this? Thanks.

Hi,

yes, this is by design, for performance reasons. It is really not a good idea to have it animated on mobile devices. It will just slow down the site on slower phones.

Hi Lubos, Is there a way to have the image in an event below the Event Title Header When looking at a big list it is not clear as the Header Event title is below the event image http://www.touradelaide.com/adelaide-events/

You need to create a base page for your events (and all other post types like notices and documents) and set it under Theme Options / Events. The title of that page will be used in page title and breadcrumbs. Please read the documentation. If you already did this, then it looks like some kind of plugin conflict.

hello Lubos, thanks for the followup. did a lot today on css. i closed up some of the spaces. I will try your tip tomorrow and let you know how i go. Fyi your theme goes well in pingdom zpeed insights. it is easy to customise with css regards Maxwell

Thanks a lot for your rating!

The Townpress header map is not working. http://holdenvillechamber.com. Great theme, by the way!

See a screenshot of my referrer section here: https://1drv.ms/i/s!AkWiy6rJIqUFtTheXX4nFiYyC0PI

It looks fine to me, but Google API still doesn’t like something about it obviously. Try to add “http://holdenvillechamber.com”. Anyway, this is not a theme related issue, there is nothing I can do with it.

Got it working. I think I hadn’t saved the holdenvillechamber.com/* one, and I added the one you said. So for anyone having the same problem, the three I added were: .holdenvillechamber.com/, http://holdenvillechamber.com/*, and http://holdenvillechamber.com.

Hello,

I have problems with the map, it doesn’t work at all. I tried to disable all the extra plugins, I made a fresh WP install, on my localhost, but nothing worked. Can you please take a look at http://dinsancrai.ro/ ?

Thank you

BTW, if you are overwriting footer.php file in your child theme, you need to update it from parent theme as it contains some important changes.

So I’ve took a look into your admin and you actually do use footer.php in child theme, so please update it from parent theme.

Thanks, Lubos!

It works perfectly fine now. Thank you for your fast answer :)

Hi. I love what I’ve seen of your theme, and I’d really like to use it, but I have a couple of questions before I purchase.

1) Is there a way to customise the dates on events so they show the day of the week, eg, “Tuesday July 19” rather than just “July 19”?

2) Is there a way to save venue information, or do you have to type in venue name, address, etc, manually every time you create an event?

Many thanks.

Hi,

1.) date format for events, posts and notices is taken from WP settings, so it can be changed (but only globally for all this post types). If you are referring to a date in Events widget in sidebar (the one with calendar-like style), then format of this one can’t be changed.

2.) Unfortunately, there is no option to save venue info

Lubos

Hello,

Having problem here with showing title for post. I create new post, write title, body text and choose featured image, and when I view it, everything is there except for title. Any suggestions how can I fix it?

Thank you,

Tingea

Hi,

can you share your URL where I can see it please?

Lubos

This is really weird indeed. But first, you should update the theme to its latest version (1.3.9), if it won’t solve the issue, I will take a deeper look on this.

It’s written that is compatible with wordpress version 4.5.x, but the latest version of the theme doesn’t include VC 4.11.2 wich is the compatible version for WP 4.5.

So now i’ve just updated WP to the latest version and can’t use Visual Composer anymore because of this, can u release an updated version of the theme including a new version of Visual Composer?

Thanks a lot for support

Problem solved, there was the 4.12 version of VC, i had to replace the plugin manually!

THanks

Hi,

due to the bug in older versions of VC, you had to deactivate and remove your current version of VC, then you will be prompted to install it again which will install latest version bundled with the theme (4.12). But you’ve obviously already sorted it out.

Lubos

Where I can translate what it says “Your email address” the area of subscription footer. Also the message out by clicking “Your email address is required.” . And also news section where they exit date and category desire to translate the “in” (June 14, 2016 “in” District). Thank you

So you’ve sorted it out?

excuse me do not speak English, I wonder if you can tell me the path to locate the language files because I have not been able to find them. Thank you

I need to use more than one Google font, but I don’t see a way to select/add more than one on the Typography page. What am I missing? Thanks!

Hi,

there is no option to use more than one font. You will have to find a 3rd party plugin for that.

Lubos

Site is at www.fourseasonswallnj.com the problem is the directort at http://fourseasonswallnj.com/clubs-and-groups/ http://fourseasonswallnj.com/clubs-and-groups/ is comprised of a directory; any time I try to move pool committee to where it needs to go alphabetically, it moves back to the top after saving.It does this via drag or the move down command. I have deleted the category and re-added it to no avail. I have tried different devices and browsers. Any help is most appreciated.

I just made a new directory and the new one is correct the old menu kept moving new additions to the top after saving, which was incorrect.

Hi,

so everything is sorted out?

Lubos

Good, buy the issue and let me know how I can add a description when creating a document. I see you have option to display the date, the author, but does not have the option of Agragar a custom description. If I could help to achieve this would be very grateful. Thank you

Hi,

there is currently no description support for Documents. However, I may add it in some future update.

Lubos

I need this urgent, you could help me integrate a description section for downloads. If there is additional cost does not matter. Or if there is a plugin to recommend me. Thank you

Sorry, but I do not offer freelance work. If you need it ASAP you will have to hire a coder for the job.

Documents is a custom functionality tailored specifically for this theme, so I am afraid no 3rd party plugin will do the job, it has to be custom coded. Or alternatively, you can try to find a 3rd party plugin which you will use instead of built-in documents.

Redirect public users’ login to forums login page

Hi Lubos,

Can you give us the option to redirect the public Users login link under Post comments to go to the Forums login link instead of the WP default whenever users wish to add comments to posts?

We would prefer to use the forums login page below: http://www.duncanville.com/forums-base/login-or-register/

Thanks,

Jorge Ruiz jorge@colourprep.com

Hi,

sorry, but you will have to either hire a coder for that or maybe there is some 3rd party plugin which can do that. This is really more like plugin territory, I don’t think that it is a good idea to have the theme mess with this functionality.

Lubos

Hi, can you advise me on the quickest way to correct user “Comments” not wrapping text on the post screen?

Thanks,

Jorge

Here’s a link to look at the issue:

http://www.duncanville.com/library-staff-reads/

Never mind, I had a typo in the custom css, the selector white-space: normal; fixed it.

Hi,

glad you’ve sorted it out!

Lubos

Hello there, I have two questions. Now that you need an api code for google maps to work, does your theme support this function. 2 are there short codes available for things like the events to make a custom events page Thanks

Regards,

Maxwell

Hi Lubos, i am having an issue i suspect not with your theme directly. if i add a location in the business directory it displays ok. The next time i go there i get code from visual composer and not the map. Have u seen this issue before. i am on my own centos server. it looks like a cache issue maybe. IF u think the directory plugin s the issue do you know a directory plugin that plays nice with your theme. website is at www.touradelaide.com Events are working well cheers Maxwell

I’ve checked one of your listing and everything works fine for me, but if the issue is with the map, isn’t it possible it can be related to this Google maps API changes? Anyway, the best way to check out if it’s the theme to blame or plugin, is to try it with some default theme like Twenty Sixteen (on the same installation with same plugins and config). If the theme is causing this, I will definitely take a deeper look at it.

Hi Lubos, The issue I am having is related to the plugin Business Directory where it sends short codes as TXT. The issue is not with your theme rather it is with the BD plugin.

Hi, in townpress, I hace active townpress child, and, in theme options just I have 4 items:

Hi,

Have you activated all required plugins like Redux and LSVR toolkit?

Lubos

Thanksssss

Hi guys – I love the TownPress theme!

I set up a dev site to test the updates, and the background image is covering the text.

Here is the dev site: http://keokuk.nuggetweb.com/

Here is the live site that has not been updated: http://www.cityofkeokuk.org/

Can you help me get it looking good again?

Now it looks even more broken because as you’ve activated the parent theme, it tries to load customskin.css from parent theme, but you have it in child theme (as you should). But that’s not the issue here. The thing is that now you do have the missing piece of HTML code there so I am 100% sure your issue is caused by some HTML customizations in child theme. It seems you have header.php file (or maybe some other files as well) in your child theme’s root which needs to get updated, because several updates back I’ve made a change to HTML code in some core theme files. Please check out changelog – update v1.2.9 description.

Okay, I removed the header.php from the child theme, and activated the child theme.

I think it’s better, but would you mind taking one last look and see if I’m missing anything?

It looks fine to me, if you have any other issues please let me know.

Hi I am having problems with the google maps feature. When I add a map to a page with a lat-long i get an error message in the box where the map should be upon loading the page that states. “Oops! Something went wrong.” “This page didn’t load Google Maps correctly. See the JavaScript console for technical details.” Chrome DevTools console is showing a NoApiKeys error.

The update is already available, you can obtain it from your downloads.

Thanks, that works. One other quesiton is there a way to change the heading of a feature element to h1 rather than h3? Not just font size but the h1 tag as well

Not without editing the code, but you will have to hire a freelancer for that.

hello I bought it. There is support forum?

Hi,

right here.
