Hi,
I am sorry, but you will have to contact me with an account with which you have purchased the theme to get support.

Hi It won’t let me save any changes in Theme Options
Hi,
I’ve replied to your previous comment.
There is really no point in creating multiple comments about the same issue. I always try to reply as soon as possible.

Can’t save theme options
Hi,
try to set your PHP memory limit to 128MB. If it won’t help, then please share your wp-admin credentials via PM and I will take a look at it.

Hi – when installing on clean WP installation I get the message
‘Unpacking the package…
Installing the theme…
The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme install failed.’
Why is the style.css stylesheet not inclued in the wordpress theme download? Could you let me know how I proceed please?

James
Hello again
We are trying to generate a Custom Color Scheme and we have seen that some people doing the same query was derived from documentation located at: http://demos.volovar.net/townpress.wp/documentation/#custom-skin but it does not work.
Where can we find detailed documentation on how to do this?
Thanks in advance
Hi,
that’s old URL, check out this. Offline version of documentation can be found in full package downloaded from ThemeForest.

In the Townpress theme Is it possible to change the background so that it fades to a different color? It looks sort of washed out… I’d be willing to change the code if you could point me to the correct location.
Hi,
you mean to change the grey background color to something else? If so then just create your custom skin as described in documentation and change value of ”$body-bg” variable (on line 37) to your desired color.

I need this theme for Joomla. Can you provide it?
Hi,
I am sorry, but there is no Joomla version and there are no plans for it. Your best bet is to purchase the HTML version and hire a Joomla developer who will create a custom theme from it.

I have the LSV Locale Info widget installed in a sidebar running on a French language WP install.
The weather for the days ahead uses the French names for the days of the week, but ‘Local Time’ and ‘Today’ are in English.
Can you tell me how to translate these two, please?
Hi,
you need to translate the LSVR Toolkit plugin.
Lubos
Thanks Lubos!
I have used Poedit Pro to translate the LSVR Toolkit plugin and that has solved the weather labels.
I still need to translate the ‘MAP’ and ‘Search this site…’ labels in the header.
I can access the TownPress theme in Poedit, but translating those labels there did not work – presumably because I am using the TownPress Child theme.
However, Poedit tells me that ‘The “TownPress Child” theme isn’t localisation-ready.’
Am I missing something here, please?
You need to translate the parent one. Try to switch to parent, make your translations and then switch back to child.
I have tried switching to the Parent theme, but Poedit displays the following error message:
Translations couldn’t be updated from the source code, because no code was found in the location specified in the catalogue’s Properties.
I have checked the catalogue’s path and it is pointing to townpress-fr_FR.po
I am sure I am getting close!
I’ve just noticed that I’ve included .po files in child theme, but they shouldn’t be there, ignore them (I will remove them in the next theme update, to not to confuse buyers in the future). What you need is to access townpress.pot file in parent theme’s language folder. Make a copy of it and rename it to townpress-fr_FR.po. Open it in POedit, make your changes and save it. It should generate a file named townpress-fr_FR.mo (still in languages directory). That should be it.
If it won’t help, then please share screenshot of your parent theme’s languages directory please.
Sorry – still not working.
Screenshot of Languages folder in TownPress parent folder
https://postimg.org/image/6j4lr5rll/You don’t have a townpress-fr_FR.mo file there. When you open townpress-fr_FR.po in POedit and save it, .mo file should be automatically generated. That’s the actual file used by WordPress for translations, so it won’t work without it.
I have re-loaded the .po file into POedit and I now have a .mo file.
I have placed this in the townpress > Languages folder (as per screenshot)
https://postimg.org/image/497r1r8gh/But still the items in the header remain in English – both when using TownPress theme and TownPress Child theme.
I now have an HTTP ERROR 500 to add to my problems!
The Error Log shows:
sarrazac24800.com Wed Apr 19 13:01:45 2017 [client 90.78.34.66:32784] AH01215: PHP Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘includes/lsvr-functions.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/pear56:/usr/share/php’) in /home/sites/sarrazac24800.com/public_html/wp-content/themes/townpress/functions.php on line 28: /home/sites/sarrazac24800.com/public_html/index.php
Ad translation: I’ve just realized I’ve gave you some misleading info. The name of the file should be just “fr_FR.mo” (without “townpress-”). Prefix is needed only for plugins, not themes. I am really sorry for that. I am sure that once you rename the file, it will work (I’ve just quickly tested it myself and it does work for me).
Ad error 500: it seems you’ve made something wrong when you dealt with those language files because looking at your screenshot, your “languages” folder contains “includes” folder which definitely should not be there and I guess that has something to do with that error. Backup your language files and reinstall the theme (or simply unzip the townpress.zip from downloaded package and overwrite townpress folder)
Thank you for all your help – all now works!
(One minor knock-on effect is that with the Mailchimp widget translated it is now too wide when used with 3 other widgets in the Bottom Panel, unless it is in the fourth place. )
Share your URL where I can see it please.

I see but that problem is cause by misformed HTML. It seems it’s in the “Formulaire envoyé avec succès” alert message. You added a STRONG tag there, but you have a syntax error there which breaks whole footer.
Thank you for taking a look!
The tag is actually in the source code of the LSVR Toolkit plugin.
I have removed the tag and the exclamation mark in the translation, but still no change.
Yeah, but it looks like it was slightly changed. What I see in the source code is this:
<Strong>Formulaire envoyé avec succès!</ Strong>
But it should be more like this:
<strong>Formulaire envoyé avec succès!</strong>
No blank space between ”/” and “strong” in second tag. But let’s try to remove it altogether (it still there, maybe it is cached).
This is what I see in POedit when looking at the LSVR Toolkit .po file.
https://postimg.org/image/w1butz3n7/... but as you say, the source code for the page shows this.
https://postimg.org/image/4m6lbyy9p/Are you sure there is not some sort of caching in place? Try to Change your translated string “Formulaire…” to slightly something else to see if it will be changed on the site too. There is really no reason for this strong tag to be there accordion to your translation.
You can find this code in wp-admin/plugins/lsvr-toolkit-townpress/widgets/mailchimp.php on line 86, so if everything fails, just hardcode your translations and I will remove this strong tag in the next update because it shouldn’t be there anyway.
I have hardcoded the translations, and all is working well now.
Thank you for all your help with this – my client is very pleased with their new website!
Great. Don’t forget that you will probably have to translate this particular string again after the next update (since any hardcoded changes will be overwritten). Hopefully it will work via .po/.mo files after that.
OK – thanks again!
I am using the accordion element on my home page. I would like to put a title above the individual items but I can’t figure out how to do it. Thanks
Hi,
I am sorry, but that’s not possible without changing the code for Accordion element.

I LOVE this theme, thank you so much for such an awesome, easy to use theme for our community. I’m wondering if there is a way to put the social icons in the top menu? They are a little hard to find at the bottom of the page. Thanks!
Hi,
thanks for nice words!
Ad social link at the top: unfortunately, that will require some custom coding to achieve. Your best bet is to hire a freelancer for that.

Hi, I am just getting started, but I love this theme. A few questions: What is the best way to add Google Analytics Tracking Code and/or Google Tag Manager Code? Is there a way to update page meta title and description within the theme settings? Does the theme work well with Yoast SEO Plugin for page meta? Does the theme work well with Yoast SEO Plugin for Sitemaps (or would you recommend something else?)
Thank you for your assistance!
Hi,
1.) you can use some 3rd party plugin for that. Can’t recommend anything specific though.
2.) Title is altered via theme, but there should be a 3rd party plugin which should allow you to change it as you wish though (Yoast SEO should be able to do that). Description is not touched at all by theme, so there are no option for that either.
3.) I know that many of existing buyers are using Yoast SEO. If you come across any issues just let me know.

Hi.
Just bought the theme and doing set up.
How do I change the logos/catergory titles for the home page as we do not need a “sport” category?
Hi,
you need to edit that page via Visual Composer and change settings for Articles elements there.
Lubos
Hi do you have any recommendations for third party plugins for managing reoccurring events?
Thanks
Hi,
there is The Events Calendar, but the recurring events are supported only in the paid Pro version I am afraid. Can’t really recommend anything else, please take a look into official plugins repository.

I would like to set a lvrs image widget on the top of the left sidebar, above the menu , you can see it now – on the top of the right sidebar – with the logo one , I want to put it in the same place , but in the left sidebar, could you help me , it`s very important for me, thanks a lot.

Hi,
unfortunately, that’s not possible without custom coding. The main menu always takes the first position. Sidebars weren’t developed to have a site logo inside, there is header for that.
Lubos
Hello,
The weather details are not displayed. I set Openweathermap.org API but still, I can’t see the weather details.
Same for the Map. The map is not displayed. Neither on Header nor on Event pages. Is it required any other API setup? And where to put it?
Please provide some guidence.
Thank you.
Hi,
you need to add a Google maps API key under Theme Options / Header Settings for map to work.
Ad weather: please share you URL, I will need to see it live.

Hi,
I’ve purchased three licences for Town Press for basic small government sites. Rather than starting from scratch each time, I decided to clone the install from the first domain over to the other two domains. I’ve not been able to update the Visual Composer plugin on the two clones and even for the original install I had to purchase a separate license for VC to get it to work again. Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
you definitely don’t need to purchase separate VC license. To update the bundled version of VC simply update the theme to its latest version (currently 1.4.8). Then you will see the prompt which will allow you to update the VC (it looks similar to a prompt which leads you to install required plugins after initial theme activation). If you’ve updated the theme and don’t see such prompt, then deactivate and remove your current version of VC. Then you will be prompted to install it again (same as when you activated the theme for the first time) which will installs latest VC version bundled with the them. The important bit is to have the latest theme version installed.
The separate VC license is needed only if you want to update the VC on your own, without relying on theme updates. If you don’t need that, then simply ignore any messages about activating your VC license and stuff like that. Those are just ads from original VC author and there is unfortunately nothing I can do about them.
The bottom line is that you don’t have to make any additional purchases to use VC with the theme. All above is the same for all themes which bundle VC here on ThemeForest BTW.

Cheers for the quick response, Lubos! I guess I wasn’t expecting to have to manually update the theme. Many other themes update upon a click of a button in the WP back end. Is something like that in the development plans? I had to delete the child and theme before I was able to get the theme zipfile to upload and install. I hope the child is no longer necessary because it wasn’t included in the downloaded package.
I spoke too soon. It keeps reverting back to VC v. 5.1 (5.1.1 is the latest). Is that correct?
There is an official Envato market plugin which you can use to update your themes purchased on ThemeForest.
Child theme is still part of the full package. The installable zip contains only the parent one (as it should). While child theme is of course optional, there is really no reason to not to install it. Maybe you won’t need it now, but having it installed won’t hurt. BTW, if you are updating the theme, only the parent one should be updated, there is no reason to update child theme (actually it would be against the purpose of having a child theme which should be used for any code customization, hence shouldn’t be updated at all)
The VC version bundled with the latest theme update is 5.1. I will update the theme with 5.1.1 in the next few days.
Thanks. The Envato market plugin seems to have worked very well for two of the three sites (all up to date now), but on the third site while I’m able to update the theme I get an error (license is not active) attempting to update VC from 5.1 to 5.1.1.
I’ve already updated the theme with VC 5.1.1, but please note that you can’t activate the VC license with bundled version of VC. Most importantly, you don’t have to do that, since I’ve already provided latest version of VC with latest version of the theme. I mean no theme on ThemeForest which bundle VC will allow you to do that since it is not technically possible for bundled VC versions. This is an official article from VC author about this for better clarification. Bottom line: ignore any messages about VC license activations, they are basically just ads. Keep your theme up to date and that will keep the VC up to date as well.
Why when I few my galleries main page does it show the name of the top gallery in the menu?
I looked at some other sites and see the same problem http://countywideplan.com/galleries/ But if I look at your demo site http://wpdemos.lsvr.sk/townpress/galleries/It looks like I would expect in the breadcrumbs.
Thanks
Got it thanks!
When I import the demo data into a new wordpress install, the content is added but no pictures or widget afffects are installed with it.
Hi,
pictures are not includes because they are copyrighted. It is mentioned in both item description here on ThemeForest and in the documentation as well. Also, importing the demo data is not enough to achieve the demo look. Please read the documentation.
Lubos
Hello, I would like to know if the theme has a content manager per user registered because I will set the theme for a city hall and several people will put content in specific pages and a person can not change the content of the other person, it would be a CMS.
Best regards
Hi,
sorry, but such functionality is more like plugin territory. I doubt you will find a theme which does this out of the box.
Lubos
When will you be updating to WPBakery Visual Composer available version 5.1?
Hi,
please update the theme to the latest version, deactivate and remove your current version of VC. You will be prompted to install it again which will instals its latest version bundled wit the theme (currently 5.1).
Lubos
I already did that and I still get the old version message.
Please advice
I stand corrected… the version I updated was not the latest one. Now it works. Sorry and thank you.
Glad you’ve sorted it out!
