Is it ok to use your theme and zombify with w3 total cache + MaxCDN + Cloudflare build? Should it all work fine?
Hi there,
A lot of users set up that combination, everything should work fine.
Thanks!
Hi there,
You should do the following:
1. In posts->categories (or tags) select icons for categories/tags.
2. In customiser->design->badges, under “post formats icons” select categories and/or tags which should show icons if assigned.
Thanks.
For the Quiz Results… I see in the change log it says custom quiz results can now be shared… do I have to do anything different when I setup a quiz than I did before… and if we update our template to the newest version, will quizzes we did before the update share the results? I just did one of my quizzes I made about 2 months ago… the template is updated just today and it didn’t share the custom quiz the results… only the default stuff like quiz title, even though I have text in the results section when I made the quiz.
Also, what is the difference and features of Open List and Ranked List?
Finally, has the docs been updated with the newest features like the Ranked List, Quiz Results sharing, etc?
Thanks
Hi there,
You just need to update Boombox and then also Zombify plugin, please check the plugin too, no need for any other configuration. If problem still you can open a ticket and our technical team will take a look.
The difference is that in Ranked List other users can’t upload their items to the list in post single page.
We’re creating new docs for Zombify, which will include detailed description of all features.
Thanks!
On the Ranked List… are the rankings and where an item sits on a list (ie. 1, 4, 5, etc.) determine by voting or is it where I put it and remains at that spot?I thought I saw you guys talking about making that ranked list something that could be voted on which will make the item move up or down the list based on votes.
On the list… when I go to /post-create-page/?type=list it doesn’t give me the option to tell it to be ranked or open list… how do specify which one?
Is there a way I can post quizzes, lists, polls, etc. from the backend ie. from the dashboard? Right now, even though I am an admin… I do it from the frontend.
Lastly, when do you foresee the Zombify docs to come out with all the new
Hi there,
You’re trying to create classic list, you need to create ranked list or open list, check if appropriate formats are enabled in zombify post formats, and yes order determine on voting.
Zombify is frontend uploader and supposed to work that way. Probably in the future we’ll consider it.
Thanks!
Thanks… I got it to work… you missed my other question:
On the Ranked List… are the rankings and where an item sits on a list (ie. 1, 4, 5, etc.) determine by voting or is it where I put it and remains at that spot?I thought I saw you guys talking about making that ranked list something that could be voted on which will make the item move up or down the list based on votes.
I’m just trying to figure out what are the key differences between the classic list, open list and ranked list. Thanks.
Hi there,
Yes in “Ranked List” post format order is changing by voting, and users can comment under each list, also every list has it’s own single page with appropriate pagination through all lists of that ranked list.
The difference between “Ranked List” and “Open List” is that in open list other registered users can add their own items from the post single page.
Thanks.
Pre-purchase question: Does the BoomBox Alternative theme (as well as the others) Natively support 728×90 adsense banners right inside the content? It looks as though it possibly does, but wanted to make sure… just purchased NP& only to find out that content area is 698 px wide and doesnt support 729×90 banners!
Hi there,
Sure, here is an example of use http://boombox.px-lab.com/boombox-alternative/2016/09/12/surfing-10-best-places-in-the-world/ .
Thanks!
Hey, how can I change the appearance of the Trending/Hot/Popular page? Right now it looks like this: http://imgur.com/a/jBZU5 But I wish I could change it to like this: http://imgur.com/a/1u1lz I could create a page for each and set it to “Stream (gif’s and memes)” but I’m not able to use the “Post Ranking System” anymore. What can I do? If this is not possible yet, will it be added later?
Hi there,
Different listing types for trending template is coming soon, please follow the updates. Currently you can create custom page like you described and set conditions appropriate to trending conditions in customiser->post ranking system, only the number on the posts will be missing.
Thanks.
I opened a ticket #1050738 two days ago, there is still no response. The problem has not been solved. Your team is very slow to respond.
i dint find Boombox Post Advanced Fields for Affiliate tab
Hi there,
Please make sure you’re using latest version of Boombox, you can find them here http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#affiliate_post . If problem still exists after updating open a ticket with wp admin access please https://pxlab.ticksy.com .
Thanks.
I have a problem with votes and view counts, both are random at start. When I publish a post it instantly has some views and votes. How to zero that or at least how to get any control over it???
Hi there,
Check if fake counts are set in customiser->post ranking system, set to 0 if you don’t need them.
Thanks.
Hi, thanks for your quick answer. The point is that the fake views are set to 5 and fake points to 3, but when I release a new post it usually shows something closer to 30 & 21 ? but sometimes even 58/38 and more. Is there some random numbers generator and those fake counts are somehow multiplied? I would like to use them but being able to control them, since according to my current traffic I can not have 69 views after a minute, so I have to wait some time before I post to socials, which I have to do manually not via masher due to the count being so random and too high from the beginning what I don’t want my viewers to notice.
Hi there,
We understand your case, and probably in the future will add some kind more manual control of it, currently real shares count is added to generated count using the fake count option and post data, like title. It is done exactly in the same way as fake shares counts in Mashshare plugin.
Thanks!
Wow, thank you for such detailed explanation! 
You’re welcome!
Hi,
1).How to change font style in mobile version?,when i try to change it through customizer,its not working.
2).I dont want visitors to enter email and name in comment form .How to remove the name and email columns in comment form?.. I disabled the options: “Comment author must fill out name and email, and also Users must be registered and logged in to comment ’ in settings->discussions section.But its not working.
Hi there,
1. Font family option in customiser->design->global effects also mobile, some default web fonts options may looks a bit different depending on mobile/browser. Google web fonts is fully supported on mobile.
2. “Comment author must fill out name and email” this option is about making those fields required or not, it’s how wordpress comments are supposed to work. You can uncheck “Users must be registered and logged in to comment” this option, in that case guests won’t be able to make a comment and registered users will use only “comment text” field.
Thanks.
Hi, do you plan Tumblr and Coub.com embed? Thanks.
Hi there,
We’ll consider adding them after current updates we’re working on.
Thanks.
Thanks.
I checked your theme in mobile. The reaction box at the end is very sensitive. I mean while scrolling down the page, the reactions are getting clicked by mistake.
Hi there,
Thanks for reporting, we’ll check that.
It would be great if you could add the option to upload mp4 files 
Hi there,
We have that on our upcoming features list.
Thanks!
1- We couldn’t find the logout button on site. We want to add this button for logging out. How can we do this?
2- We want to send confirmation mail to users, it does not send confirmation mail to users when they were registering. How can we send them confirmation mail?
Hi there,
1. You need to create profile menu http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#buddypress .
2. This will be fixed with next update.
Thanks.
Hi there,
Please make sure Buddypress plugin is activated and appropriate Buddypress menu links isn’t hidden from “screen options” in appearance->menus.
If problem still exists open a ticket https://pxlab.ticksy.com please.
Thanks.
The Yoast SEO plugin says there is 0 words for the page. There is nothing in the visual or text section of the page box. How do we get the content to appear on wp-admin of each page?
Hi there,
Zombify posts are working via shortcodes, and Yoast SEO doesn’t recognise content from shortcodes by default, but it doesn’t mean there is a SEO problem and post doesn’t have content – it’s there, just Yoast doesn’t scan content from shortcodes. In next update we’ll add Yoast SEO plugin’s appropriate filters integration in Zombify and Yoast won’t show that alert anymore and will scan the content from Zombify shortcodes.
Please follow the updates.
Thanks.

Hi again PX-lab

Hi there,
Probably yes, in the future – we’ll at least consider some options. We just don’t want to overload theme with builder plugins.
Thanks.
Hello,
How do I install this theme? I keep getting a 500 internal error whenever I try to install even when I try to install the wordpress files only. Please advice,
Thanks!
Hi there,
Just replied to your ticket.
Thanks.
Could you please include an optimal w3 total cache configuration and settings in your documentation? You know your theme best than anyone else. I’m sure, a lot of boombox users will appreciate this.
Hi there,
Yes, W3 Total Cache if fully supported and we’re going to add appropriate instructions in docs very soon.
Thanks!
How do i use Boombox affiliate links and post if i select for example anothergag variation. U see i dont want my hole magazine to be themed like boombox affiliate, but i would like that certain posts have affiliate link and button like posts on Boombox affiliate. I like the theme , but i suppose u could add to customizer some functions and template them for selection or diselection , right ? This all here would agree. Please tell me your opinion
Hi there,
You can use affiliate post functionality on all demos http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#affiliate_post , here is example from Another Gag demo http://boombox.px-lab.com/another-gag/fresh/ .

Hi there,
Sorry for the delay in reply, we were a bit overloaded recently.
1. You need to upload GIF files, and if you enable CloudConverter they will be converted into mp4 files on the fly, and mp4 file will be played as gif, you just need to keep uploading GIF files.
2. You can check Zombify frontend uploader and particularly Meme here http://zombify.px-lab.com/ with demo/demo public access.
3. NSWF is just 1 category, if it assigned to post appropriate filter is applied and post become login required.
4. WP Quad is plugin for integrating various ads areas http://boombox.px-lab.com/docs/#adSense-integration-WP-QUADS .
5. You can add affiliate link to any post, on all layouts including Another Gag, here is example post http://boombox.px-lab.com/another-gag/fresh/ .
Thanks.

Hi there,
Yes, Zombify is included in Boombox. I suggest you review both to compare – we suggest to use Zombify with Boombox theme.
Thanks for your interest.
Thanks. Is theme selection (another gag , animatrix) cab be easily switchable at any stage. I am confuse b/w two. So at any point u can switch with a single click (same ad style, widget, post listing) or u need to define all widget,post listing (8 style) once again which usually we do when switch any theme
Hi there,
If you switch from one demo to another – sidebars, listing types will be changed appropriate to new demo. But we have separate import files – only for customiser, which you can import standalone, for switching only styles.
Thanks.
