Hello there,

Yes it is possible. You can use the “Custom Link” option inside the Post options panel of the slider post. You will find options to hide a caption, link images to custom URL , or no-link.

Inside the custom link, you can provide the absolute URL of the page you wish to link to.

Regards

Thank you!

Hello again,

I guessed that. Unfortunately, that will not be possible in our case. This is because the tab IDs are generated randomly using an integer value. For example tab1 has an id=1799, and you link to it using the same ID. But when you will land on the page, it may again get changed to some other value.

The random IDs are created so that the tabs can be used multiple times without any ID conflict. Linking from external page will be difficult here.

Just for your reference, one of the buyers asked the same thing, and I provided him a solution with custom tab code. But the implementation was not 100% successful. If you need that markup, here it is:

<div class="tabber">
    <div class="tabbed" id="my_tab_1">
        <h4 class="tab_title">Tab1</h4>
        <p>Tab1 content here.</p>
    </div>
    <div class="tabbed" id="my_tab_2">
        <h4 class="tab_title">Tab2</h4>
        <p>Tab2 content here.</p>
    </div>
    <div class="tabbed" id="my_tab_3">
        <h4 class="tab_title">Tab3</h4>
        <p>Tab3 content here.</p>
    </div>
</div>

Paste this code in HTML mode of the editor and save the page. The tabs will function normally, and you can try linking to these custom IDs.

Regards

Hello there!

It seems to work quite nicely :o)

For future readers the linking is done like this: http://www.my-domain/my-sub-page?id=my_tab_1#my_tab_1

Any chance you could make an updated version of the theme where this function is included in the tabs-function so I won’t have to implement the code on all my pages? ...pretty please :o)

Kind regards (and thank you for your help so far :o)

Hello again,

I am glad it worked. However, it’s implementation via short codes will require manual addition of IDs, and that may take some more parameters. I will see if that can be done.

Regards

Hello there,

Tabs are created using the short codes (as described inside the documentation file). The tab links are automatically created using a random integer ID via JavaScript. You just need to use the short code with appropriate tab title.

Let me know if you were asking something different.

Hello Jennifer,

That can be done by inserting WP Menu inside one of the portfolio template files, and then configuring that menu from the WordPress Menu manager.

Thanks for the quick reply! Can I also have captions showing?

Hello again,

Yes you can show post titles (on portfolio items), or opt to hide them all.

Hello Paul,

Hello there,

I can see that you are still using version 1.2 of the theme. The jquery.easing.min.js file is causing a JS conflict.

You can disable it inside header.php line no. 40:

wp_enqueue_script("jq-easing", $dir."/js/jquery.easing.min.js");

You can also upgrade this js/jquery.easing.min.js file to the latest version / or delete it’s call as I mentioned above. Both solutions will work.

Regards

Hello there,

You may need to update the posts (created for slider). It is possible that the variables do not get updated. However, I suspect some other issue. I can be more specific if I see the URL . Are you testing on a local server?

Regards

Hello there,

Can I have a look at the URL please.

Hello again,

It seems you recently upgraded to WP 3 .2.1, but the theme is still 1.2.

You can either upgrade the theme to the latest version, or do a small fix as I am describing below:

There is a JS conflict due to js/jquery.easing.min.js file. Inside header.php line no. 40, you will see its call as:

wp_enqueue_script("jq-easing", $dir."/js/jquery.easing.min.js");

Delete or disable this line, and your JS effects will work normal as before.

Hello there,

The hulk menu is called inside heder.php file line no. 69:

<?php wp_nav_menu( array( 'container' ?> 'none', 'menu_class' => 'nav1', 'theme_location' => 'primary' ) ); ?>

You can remove the menu by deleting this line. The theme supports WP3 Menu system. So you can install that plugin. Rest of the instructions can be gathered from the plugin documentation.

If you need any help in registering menu with Hulk theme, I will assist accordingly.

Hello Hans,

The tables and some form elements are not showing properly because we have reset all HTML elements to zero margin, padding and border inside style.css (1. Reset Browser Defaults).

In order to have default browser style, you can simply remove the following selectors from this section:

fieldset, form, label, legend, table, caption, tbody, tfoot, thead, tr, th, td

Next, you can style individual form elements by finding their class names by looking at the source code.

Since there are many plugins that use different class names for form elements, I haven’t provided any specific rule for forms. I will update style.css for default forms on this theme.

You can also mail me your style.css file (in .zip format) at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com. I will make necessary fixes.

Regards

Hello ehartfield,

If you have made custom changes to the style.css file, you can replace all the theme files EXCEPT style.css.

You can also update selective files that are mentioned inside the update log section of the item description page. You would do so by using any FTP program or file manager of your hosting.

Regards

Hello Melissa,

Inside style.css file section 3. Structure, locate the following line:

.content { position:relative; float:left; width:910px; padding:0px; margin:30px 10px 0px 30px }

The width for content in original file was 590. So you will need to change this line to:

.content { position:relative; float:left; width:590px; padding:0px; margin:30px 10px 0px 30px }

When no sidebar is used, a .wide class is added to the content that is 900px wide.

Regards

thank you very much, that’s great! Melissa

Hello Al,

By upgrading to latest cycle plugin, I was referring to upgrade the jquery.cycle.min.js file from the plugin site.

The activeSlide issue is raised many times on the Cycle Forums. I have surfed across them but strangely I couldn’t find the actual cause. I will update you as soon as find it.

Regards

Hello again,

I have looked the slider. The activeSlide issue seems strange. Try to change the CSS as shown below:

ul.cycle_nav li a.activeSlide { background-position:-18px 0px }

Also, try to upgrade the jquery cycle plugin with latest JS. Hope it works. Else I will look further.

Regards

Hi Saurabh,

Thanks for the info. My website was migrated to faster servers at GoDaddy- they switched me to SSH and to a “4GH” grid environment which is supposed to be faster load times.

Supposedly all paths remained intact, and all seems to work fine, but could this an issue?

Also, the only css modification I did to the buttons was increase the right margin from 18 to 24 to line them up with the image edge, but was working fine after this.

If the cycle buttons don’t work, is there an easy code to render them invisible while we figure out the problem – no sense showing them if they don’t work.

Thanks,

-al

Hell Al,

I just added the following rule inside the head section of the site using firebug:

ul.cycle_nav li a.activeSlide { background-position: -18px 0px }

and the bullets seem to work fine. Kindly mail me your login details at xconsau[at]gmail[dot] com so that I will fix it at your end.

Regards

Saurabh,

Thanks for your reply. I was probably not clear with my question. My confusion is how to create the parent top menu item for a nested drop down.

Since this parent item is a title only with no direct links, I can’t seem to figure out how to create a simple menu item with no links – strictly a parent title for nested items. I see in WP ways of creating menu items for pages, categories, or links but not a parent item with a name only for nested menus.

As I said before, what I’ve done with Hulk is adding a link item to the menu, and once in place, removing the link so it only works as a parent for its nested items. Bus this way does not seem correct.

Hopefully, I’ve explained it a bit clearer. Thanks for your patience.

Hello Al,

You can place a dummy link using the Appearance > Menus > Custom Links Panel. Inside this panel, provide the following details:

URL: http://#
Label: Your Link Name

Next, click on “Add to menu”. After this, you can set other menu items as child of this dummy link.

Thanks for your reply. That’s the way I’ve been doing it, except instead of ”#”, I just deleted the link after adding it to the menu.

I just wanted to make sure there wasn’t another way.

Thanks again for your great support.

Hello vikerious,

Footers can be made sticky by either using a fixed bottom position, or by using percentage for bottom value. In second case, it is hard to calculate actual bottom values in percentage due to the involved padding and margins.

A fixed positioned footer will always appear on top stack order, overlapping the content. Generally, the sticky footer issue is resolved by giving the color of body same as that of footer. You can change the body color to the one as inside .footer { } selector.

Hello Nikolasa,

Kindly send me the URL again. The old one isn’t working. I can view the source code and tell more.

Hello again,

Its the empty header widget area that is causing the white space. Inside style.css file, add a rule at the bottom of the stylesheet:

.header_wgt_area { display:none }
