hi

i am having a problem to put the top menu like the one on another-gag demo please help thanks

Hi there,

Please review our dosc design set up part http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#design – exactly “Header” part.

Thanks.

where is the viral press plugin for the quiz system,thanks

Hi there,

You need to buy Viralpress if you want to use it with BoomBox, it isn’t delivered inside theme, Viralpess is a plugin which our them fully supports.

Also please note that all functionality – reactions, badges, voting system, ranking (trending, hot, popular) .. etc are native BoomBox functionality and only possibility to add quiz, poll.. from frontend is Viralpress.

Thanks.

hi, i noticed that in your demo the trending, hot, and popular pages are empty. Are these page templates?

Is Viralpress included in your theme?

Hi there,

On which demo you open them, I’ve just checked it on our original demo http://boombox.px-lab.com/hot/ , if you notice something wrong on other demos please report, and yes it’s page template and it’s native BoomBox functionality. Viralpress is only adding fronend submission – possibility to create poll, quiz … from frontend, all other functionality – reactions, badges, voting system, ranking (trending, hot, popular) .. etc is native BoomBox functionality.

Thanks!

is your theme suited for multi authors and other user can submit their post? Can they add post in front-end or the user needs to do this in the backend?

Hi there,

Yes our theme is suited for it, but for enabling frontend submissions you need to use Viralpress plugin, it isn’t deliver with out theme, but fully integrated.

Also please note that all functionality – reactions, badges, voting system, ranking (trending, hot, popular) .. etc are native BoomBox functionality and only possibility add quiz, poll.. from frontend is Viralpress.

Thanks

Great theme,

Pre-sale question; since I am an illustrator, can I design and upload my own custom reaction? if yes, how can I do it?

Thanks

Hi,

It’s svg files, about 3kb with 5px radius, we’ll send you example. All reactions badges are set from that 1 svg and you can change colours from admin. So you’ll need to create 1 svg.

Yes, we have 3 column grid layout without sidebar.

Thanks!

Yes please send me a sample. Thanks.

Hi,

No problem, email us via contact form here https://themeforest.net/user/px-lab#contact so I can send it back to you. Also please don’t forget to make your purchase before, so I can provide appropriate support.

Thanks!

I want to use the Buzzy Theme, how do I activate this one. I am stuck with the default one Boombox Original.

Thanks

Hi there,

You can import appropriate settings, Buzzy demo is just set of different options. Please review our docs http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#install-sample-data , part under “import customiser settings”.

If you still have any difficulties email us via contact form here https://themeforest.net/user/px-lab#contact .

Thanks!

Hi there,

Hi guys,

Just bought and installed 2nd copy of boombox, intend to built multisite viral platform. Did you test it with WPMU, is there any issues? I want to build this one as your panda demo.

By the way, working with theme is pleasure and thanks for so detailed documentation!

Hi there,

Yes, BoomBox is fully tested with WPMU, it’s working perfectly – our demos are run via multisite :)

Thank You!

That’s amazing!

Can u check the error in my web please? If u click the detail article it says “Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in /home/whatever/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 3284”

the website is http://whatever.id

Hi,

Yes, I found it – can you please email us via form here https://themeforest.net/user/px-lab#contact and provide your website’s link, FTP and wp-admin access – we’ll find the reason and fix directly on your server.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Can you please update you wp to the latest version, let me know if you have any problem after it.

Thanks.

Just purchased. When I activate it I get HTTP ERROR 500

Yes we were right, the problem wasn’t in BoomBox, Total Cache wasn’t installed successfully, we reinstalled it and it fix the problem http://instructize.com .

Thanks!

Nice. Will go further with the import of one of the demos. Thanks and GLWS.

Thanks!

I just purchased theme, I see many of purchased users which posted link of their sites are using sticky ads with adsense, Can that get me banned from adsense or not? Can I use that feature?

My theme is not working good at all, I just imported data from lonely panda, and its still original version. When I click on some post, it just loads link, nothing else to show https://receptplus.com/p

Hi there,

I can clearly see that data wasn’t imported successfully, it seems like you imported only xml data, but it wasn’t imported as should. Please review this http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#install-sample-data – part under the “Import Customiser settings”, this import should set the options appropriate to Lonely Panda styles, in “demo content” folder we have folder for every demo and there you can find 2 import files – xml for data and another for customiser settings. Also please try to import xml data again.

If you still have problem with this, please email us via contact form here https://themeforest.net/user/px-lab#contact and provide us your wp-admin access, we’ll take a look first things in the morning.

Depending on server configurations sometime demo xml import file don’t work successfully, we examine this problem currently.

Thanks!

I gave you info in private messages

Great theme. One question if buy it now and buy viralpress when you add your new frontend upload post who created with viralpress plugin will work? thanks

Hi there,

Yes, we’re considering it, it will work, but I think you’ll need to keep VIralpress activated as a plugin and remove when those posts will become old.

Thanks!

Make Poosible to integrate Ads In Native theme instead of using these complicated plugins http://thinkfeeds.com

WP-Quads is doing all job great, and we have really more important updates in the pipeline now ;)

Thanks.

everything is good but WP Quads make me frustated too much complicated

Hi there,

It’s currently best plugin on the market and very flexible, I’m sure you’ll like it after using a bit :)

Thanks.

i am not able to come up with setlle ment of ads trying from hours

WTF? PX-lab, where have you been all my life? will this theme be supported? do you accept costume work on the side?

Hi there :D ,

LOL , we were working really hard on this theme, it isn’t just another theme for us – BoomBox will be highly supported and we have really big plans, new features are coming soon. We’re too overloaded now, and I don’t think can do custom work, but we’re open for good suggestions and here to assist you if you have any problem.

Thank You! :)

Theme with better native frontend uploader having all viral post options, or more than viralpress, may be. Then it will be leader in viral themes. I’ll wait for such update to buy. Thanks

We’re working in that direction, thanks! :)

any idea when it will be released, any idea?

Sorry, but it’s really difficult to say now, probably next week it will be more clear. We’re working hard, first should be released Buddypress integration and just after it should be clear approximate release date of frontend uploader.

Thanks!

Unable to import demo content :( Don’t know why

Hi there,

Can you please send us via contact form here https://themeforest.net/user/px-lab#contact your website’s links and wp admin access, we’ll take look.

Thanks!

Nice theme. How can I disable the strip on the front page of the boombox page?

Hi there,

Edit that page and under editor you can see “Show strip” checkbox.

Thanks!

Hi

Very alluring theme and I hesitate between Bimber and Boombox to laaunch my viral theme.

Some questions :

1. Can I use ad blocks for elective ads other than adsense ? 2. Does it fully support Yoast and is it optimized for SEO ? 3. Can I place an ad around the content like if it was the background ? 4. As for the badges, can I install my own ones ? 5. Is there a dummy content ? 6. As for the top coulour, can I change it from yellow to blue ? 7. Can I add some links down like on this page Meet Envato/About/Why… ? 8. Can we show a contributors top list ? 9. Can we set up fake likes and shares like on Bimber so as to avoid 0 like/share ? 10. Can people connect with Facebook ? 11. What will include the next release ? 12. You promise to add lots of things in the next versions but will I automatically benefit from them if I buy the theme now ? 13. Last and sorry for that question, but I did the same with Bimber team : what would you say me to convince me to purchase Boomboy rather than Bimber ?

thx

Hi there,

Here are my answers:

1. Yes, you should be able to do, we just integrated many areas with wp-quads plugin, and you put there any embed. If you have any problem here we’re ready to assist.

2. Yes our theme is SEO optimised, code is semantically perfect and Yoast plugin is supported.

3. You can place background, but what exactly type of ad you need here, can you please send me some example link.

4. You can set badges from very big range, there is integrated hundred of icons. You can set reactions bagdes (with emoji) for our provided range, we’ll contiously extend all possible emojis will be supported. Also you can use text badges like here http://boombox.px-lab.com/buzzy/ .

5. Yes we have import files for every demo.

6. Sure, BoomBox is extremely customisable. Our demos aren’t just predefined skins – it’s set of options from endless variations!

7. Sure.

8. This will be integrated later, it’s in our upcoming features list. Currently we’re working on Buddypress, after we’ll consider this feature also/

9. Yes you can set fake shares, avoiding 0 like/share is pretty easy to add. We’ll add this if you buy BoomBox.

10. Yes, people can login with Facebook and Google, soon there will be added also Twitter connect.

11. Buddypress is next, after will be brand new frontend upload and multiple other feautures.

12. After Buddypress the price will be 59$, and if you buy theme now you’ll be able just update your theme and receive all new updates.

13. Honestly, I don’t want to be compared deeply, but BoomBox is providing really big range of options to customise look compared to any other them, not only Bimber I think, just look at our different demos, and there are endless possibilities, I know how important for users to have unique view and this can be achived with our theme. Also you can compare features. And this is just beginning, BoomBox will be highly supported, there a lot of features coming soon and we have big plans.

Let me know if you have any other question.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Buddypress support is added now.

Thanks!
