Hi, when i go to a page on the site in the breadcrumbs it says “Home” instead of the name i gave to the frontpage which is “Forside” Why does it do that? 
Hi,
I am sorry but the breadcrumb home link label is always “home”. You can translate it via Loco Translate plugin or Poedit software.

Hi, how do i choose what text from a post i show as the short description? Right now it just shows ALL the text form post when you’re on the Posts page. See here: http://www.blavand.dk/nyheder/ HELP?!
Hi,
when editing a post click on Screen Options in upper right corner and enable Excerpt. Then scroll down and add your short text into Excerpt field.

Just what i was looking for, thanks!
Hello! Thanks for the great theme. I have two doubts: 1 – How to translate the word MAP that is in the button up where google maps opens?
2 – In HOME, there is an image linked to NEWS. Can you increase its height by keeping the width?
Thanks for your attention!
Hi,
1.) This string is in the header.php file in the theme, so the easiest way will be to use Loco Translate plugin
2.) Not sure I understand which image do you mean, can you share your URL please?

We love this theme! I’m working on layout now, but my Client likes to use Bullet Lists in Wordpress. Unfortunately, this Theme includes the common problem of text wrapping around onto a new line (hanging text) whenever you incorporate a Bullet list (you only notice it when text is long and runs over 1 line). It’s really unattractive but I can’t find out how to stop it in TownPress (other than using much larger Tables instead). The issue apparently rates to a setting of “list-style-position: inside” and it should be set to “list-style-position: outside” but I can’t seem to find this or figure out how to correct the layout problem. Any ideas?
Hi,
share your URL where I can see the issue please.

Hi Lubos,
The site is under development (so locked out most of the time) but I’ve unlocked it temporarily so you can see here: http://longsutton.com/social/
As you can see, the Bullet lists align awkwardly whenever an Item exeeds one line in length, rather than being neatly aligned as Bullet and Description. It’s a common Wordpress problem, but given how attractive TownPress is, it’s a shame to see it in your Theme (and the Client likes to use them!). Best, Anna
You can try this Custom CSS (place it under Theme Options / Custom CSS or into your child theme’s style.css):
li { list-style-position: outside; }
This will put those bullets outside of the content area, which is not ideal. It can be fixed by this additional CSS:
ul { padding-left: 20px; }
However, this one can affect some other site elements as well. So once you insert it, check out your site if there is not any unusual left indent where it shouldn’t be.
That’s absolutely perfect Lubos! Thank you for the solution I haven’t noticed this Custom CSS impacting upon any other elements on my TownPress theme implementation, so far. Your solution has resolved an issue that I do find quite frustrating. Thank you for such a swift reply too.
Great!
Hello, I am trying to figure out how to display only the event title in the events widget in the sidebar and not any of the description. I would like for the description to be seen only when the event is clicked. Thank you
never mind, I was overlooking the checkbox on the widget
Hi,
I am glad you’ve sorted it out!

Hi, TownPress – Municipality WordPress Theme is multilanguage supported? Can i use Polylang with this theme? Thanks in advantage. Sincerelly, Berkeczi Zsolt
Hi,
I’ve tested it only with WPML, but it should work with Polylang as well.

Hi
This is the url: http://www.luddington.org/events/The page title for the list of events page shows as the first event. No t sure why.
The same happens in the Galleries, it shows the first Gallery as the page name for the list page: http://www.luddington.org/galleries/Not sure why. I think it did work before the last update.
Thanks Karen
Hi,
you need to create base pages for events and galleries. Please read the whole documentation.
Lubos
Hello. How can I change the color to the PAGE TITLE, the black panel. thank you
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?
Regards,
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.
Lubos
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.
