Hey when your new theme will be release?

Hi themeroute,

I apologize for continuing to move the release date, but it will likely be in August since I am currently working on AMP inclusion in a few of my themes, including this one.

Hi.

How do I register my license for the Reviewer plugin? I tried using the Zox News’ purchase code but it failed to register the license. You said the Reviewer plugin was included for free in the Zox News theme, so there has to be a way to activate it for free.

EDIT: I am sorry. I registered in your Themes Support Center and already found out the answer. The codes necessary to activate the plugin are in the theme documentation. I think they could be placed in a more visible place, though. Thank you.

Hi jafoste,

I’m glad you were able to find the plugin purchase code, but I’m not sure where else I could place that information since it’s not legal to place them in a public forum anywhere. The documentation is typically the first resource when setting up a theme, which is why it is located there.

Why i cannot Update Theia Post Slider to version 2.0.0 ?

Hi nikojulius,

Please submit a ticket at the Support Center and I can help you with this. Thanks!

i have a pre-sale inquiry. i saw that this theme is used on this site dailypost.ng but i noticed the entire width of the theme is adjusted (reduced), though i had came across the theme on other website with defaulth width. if i go ahead and purchase the theme, can i get an assistant to reduced the entire width via support center? i actually prefer to have the width as it appears on dailypost.ng. thanks as i look forward to your response.

Hi kunlexycleric,

That site uses the wallpaper ad feature, which reduces the content area width. So, yes, you can easily have the site use that width by setting a wallpaper ad, or just setting a 1×1 transparent gif as the wallpaper ad, which would set the content area to that width, but without any ad being displayed.

I want to know how I’ll remove all the images that comes with this theme. It’s making my website SSL website not to work perfectly well. Visit this link to see.. https://www.whynopadlock.com/results/a053d94b-986b-448f-b8d0-9c3afabb2e31

Hi Umahivictor,

Please submit a ticket at the Support Center and I’ll look into this for you. Thanks!

What is the best way display the ad leaderboard on the homepage only?

Hi getCREATV,

Unfortunately, your support has expired. If you would like to continue to receive support, you will need to renew your support for this theme via the Downloads section of your Themeforest profile page.

Hello, have you given any further thought to AMP? If so, what plugin do you recommend if one decides to AMPlify their site? Thanks!

Hi ebrianrose,

I am currently looking into incorporating AMP directly into the theme, and will hopefully have the update very soon. But there may be plugins that should work with the theme if you want to try them in the meantime.

Advertising on homepage. With regard to the wallpaper ad. Would an advertiser need to supply a single file to certain dimensions or are there three different files involved – one for top, and one each for sides, or are the sides just a wordpress background?

Hi C-Y-B-E-R,

The wallpaper ad is one large ad that sits behind the content and is wide enough to appear on both sides of the margins. The top space is a separate leaderboard ad that can be used without the wallpaper ad.

Ok, in your wallpaper demo the top appears to be part of the wallpaper image. Is that one image covering that whole area?

Hi C-Y-B-E-R,

It’s actually two separate images (wallpaper and leaderboard ad), but I laid everything out so it looks like it’s all one image.

Can I embed my own custom videos In the featured area of the single post? I’m not talking about mp4 I’m using a MONETIZED EMBEDDABLE PLAYER.

Hi evilnoise,

You can use an iframe embed code to display in place of the Featured Images on posts. You can also disable the Featured Image on individual posts or all posts, and insert whatever code you want into the body of the post.

Hi evilnoise,

I have only tested YouTube and Soundcloud embeds with the Featured Video feature, so I cannot guarantee that your custom code will work 100%. But as I mentioned previously, you can certainly insert the code at the top of the body of the post and disable the Featured Image from displaying in the post.

Hello, Before buying the Zox theme, I ask you a quick question before buying. I’m very interested in the Zox theme www.mvpthemes.com/zoxnews/, but I also like the vertical layout of Click Mag’s list of posts mvpthemes.com/clickmag/. How can I acquire the Zox theme and apply the presentation of the posts in flat list? Thank you

Hi palanni,

I am not exactly sure what you are asking, but if you are asking if you can remove the widgetized area above the “More New” section on the Zox News homepage, then you can easily remove the widget area from within the Theme Options.

Hi there.. The layout examples in your demo are not working: http://www.mvpthemes.com/zoxnews/featured-1/

Hi C-Y-B-E-R,

Thanks for the heads up! Everything should be fine now.

Thanks, looks good

Please release an amp version of zox theme plugin with it like in newspaper8 they provide amp version of website

Hi Kashmirmonitor,

I am still looking into this for a possible future update.

Out of curiosity, when will the next update be available. One of the plugins is out of date. Thanks

Hi john_wilbanks,

Yes, I do plan on updating the theme with the new version of the plugin, but as long as you have followed the instructions in the documentation for registering the plugin, you should be able to automatically update the plugin.

Can you frequency cap the billboard ad in the header? I.e have it show on the first page view, and suppress it for subsequent page views?

Hi insurance,

Unfortunately, that is not a feature of the theme and is something you would need to modify on your own.

Ok. I may grab it anyway because of the quick response :) It’s not quite as annoying on mobile, lol. If not, I’ll opt for Click Mag, hee hee.

Sounds like a plan, thanks!

Hello there, mister! :) Pre-purchase questions, if I may: 1. I was scrolling through comments. In this version, are there options to display custom posts on right side of home screen? (Featured 1, for example, has Trending. I am asking if I can have there, let’s say, a certain category, instead of Trending, without changing the template: Use Featured 1, but control the sidebars as I seem fit) 2. Can “date” date be excluded from view? Not by altering code, but by ON/OFF like option? Thank you for your swift reply! Regards, Theo.

Hi blackcat_media,

1) That area within the Featured Posts section is not a widget area, so you will not be able to customize what is displayed there. If you want to use a different Featured Posts layout, you can choose another one. But you can add widgets to the sidebar toward the bottom of the homepage and choose what categories you want displayed there.

2) I can give you some code to remove the date from the theme.

Hi,

I need to know if the theme compatible with some plugins like paid membership pro, LearnDash, Learn Press and Sensei?

Thank you,

Tamer

Hi tamerimran,

Unfortunately, I hve not tested any of those plugins with the theme, so I can’t guarantee that they are 100% compatible. Though, I am not aware of any conflicts with any of them.

Hi again, MVPTHemes,

I need to buy the theme, but the problem with me it’s about the homepage, I need to customize it to look like this: https://canaltech.com.br/

You know, I can do this easily with Visual Composer but you didn’t use it with the homepage. So:

1. Did you offer support to help me to customize it to be like this after purchase it?

2. Can I put Icons on the menu bar beside the categories names?

Thanks,

Hi tamerimran,

1) Unfortunately, I don’t offer extensive customization help, but I can refer you to someone who should be able to help, for a fee.

2) That is also something you would need to modify on your own.

hello sir i am a regular customer of yours store and buy lots of stuffs from it . i want to buy a zox news (regular licence ) please provide me a discount of app. 25% i will be great thanks full to you

Hi sangeetagarg,

Unfortunately, I am unable to provide discounts to individual customers.

Hello I have two questions. First, how do I prevent the continue read button on the post preview from opening up the media which blocks the actual link from opening? Also, how do I make my site look exactly like the demo site?

Hi blackbird16k,

Please submit a ticket at the Support Center and I’ll look into this for you. Thanks!

Pre-purchase question. I have now bought 2 themes from MVP and always loved them.

I’m am thinking about buying VOX, however i have one major question. In ‘FEATURED 1’ homepage layout, you have the 3 featured articled (controlled by tags) and you also have “Latest’ on the right sidebar.

The problem i face is that I run a sports based site that is very time sensative. Every new article we do goes into the ‘Featured’ section. I am worried that with VOX, my aritlces will repeat on the homepage, showing in both the FEATURED section and the LATEST feed.

In Click Mag (which i am using) there is a way to have your 3 FEATURED, and then “Latest” shows your 4th most recent post. This way there is no repeating of articles on the homepage.

A) Do you follow me?

and

B) Is that possible with VOX?

Sorry. i didnt mean to say VOX…i meant ZOX

Hi loup20,

Yes, the same exists in Zox News as well, as you can see on the demo where no posts are repeated from the Featured Posts section in any other areas. In fact, if a post is prominently displayed anywhere on the homepage, it will not be displayed anywhere else below.

Hello, are you able to disable options such as the read more button and teaser articles after posts? I’m currently running your theme The League, what happens to our post templates after switching? If I set an individual post to use a custom template does it keep that setting or change to the new default? Thanks!

Hi bdisgusting,

You can easily disable the teaser posts from within the Theme Options. The switch from The League to Zox News should be seamless. You should only need to run the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin, but everything else should be relatively straightforward and carry over. The custom post templates may stay the same number, but the actual template will change based on what that post template looks like in Zox News.
