Hello ! Could you help me ? First, excellent work, this template is really awesome ! Good job !
I have a problem. I try to fix the title (and author) in all the photos of my fullscreen diaporama (like the “storm wordpress” version). I want to use the Title tag of my and the personalized font of your template (cufon) ? For the position (top left) for example.
How can I modify the “script.js” file to do it ? Is it possible ? Thank you !
It’s not possible with the current scripts. I want to backport the features from Storm WordPress to the HTML template, but I don’t know when this will happen. In the mean time the only thing you can do is put the caption directly on to the background image – in PhotoShop for example.

Hi,
I’m thinking of buying this template – but had one questions first:
Is it possible to create individual pages that have their own galleries?
I want to use the template as a portfolio for multiple artists – where each artist has their own page with a gallery?
Thanks!
Tom
Hi,
Yes, not a problem. Just upload your images to the Portfolio section in corresponding categories. Then create the pages and use the Portfolio shortcode to display the images on from their Portfolio category. There are many other settings to create it to your preference.
TC
That is awesome – thanks a lot for your help!

Hello all
For those interested in the WordPress version of this template, it’s now available for sale here.
Enjoy,
TC 
Thanks so much for the code, looks great. I just have one last question…. I have one page that I don’t want a background image on (just the default black). What code do I remove from the source? I didn’t want to touch the js script as other pages use it.
thanks again!
In the head section of the page source. Add the following code, before any other script tag.
<script type="text/javascript"> var backgrounds = []; </script>Regards, TC
Can the fullscreen portfolio be used with a thumbnail strip somewhere over it? Thanks!
No, it’s not possible to do that without custom work.
Regards, TC
you have a wordpress version of this?
It will be available for sale in about 1 week.

The WordPress version is now available here.

Oh yes, good news ! Though it’s been 1 year now since you say it’s gonna be released soon. What “very close to release” means for you ? Last year in september it was a question of several weeks :-))
The theme is built and working, we are building the preview site now. We hope to submit it to ThemeForest in the next couple of days.
Regards, TC
Believe me, I would then be one of the 10 first buyers. I apologize for being ironic previously.
The WordPress version is now available here.

Before buying the license, are waiting for version for Wordpress. Alert me when it comes out the version for WD. Thanks Leonardo
Will do, it’s very close to release.

What is the ajax version used for ?
Also I want to be able to write in the image URLs in the head of my pages rather then the JS file so I can make the background images easy to add/remove with PHP .
Am I able to designate the URLs outside the scripts.js file ?
1. The Ajax version loads the page content without reloading the page, which some may prefer.
2. Yes, in the documentation there is a section named “Different backgrounds per page” with how to specify them in the head of the page.

But it doesnt change slides with Slideshow button. Just changes 1 slide when button and pressed and gets stuck.
If i refresh the same page… with F5 The slider works.
Thanks for the help. I am nearly done integrating both. Just need help with one more thing. The Anything Slider from Pearl does not work with Ajax. The loader just keeps loading and loading (animation). Content does not appear.
I have added these to index.ajax.html:
<link rel=”stylesheet” type=”text/css” href=”js/anythingslider/css/anythingslider.css” />
<script type=”text/javascript” src=”js/anythingslider/js/jquery.anythingslider.js”></script>
Below is the script at the end of the document scripts.ajax.js:
// Fire the hashchange event manually
$(window).hashchange();
}); // End (document).ready
$(window).load(function() {
// Load the Twitter feed
if (twitterUsername && tweetCount > 0) {
(function() {
var t = document.createElement('script'); t.type = 'text/javascript'; t.src = 'http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/' + twitterUsername + '.json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=' + tweetCount;
var h = document.getElementsByTagName('head')[0]; h.appendChild(t);
})();
}
}); // End (window).load
if ($('ul#homepage-slider').length) {
// Anything slider
$('.homepage-slider-loading').remove();
$('ul#homepage-slider').show().anythingSlider({
width: 900,
height: 300,
resizeContents: false,
delay: 6000,
startStopped: true
});
}
Have i missed anything ? Where do i need to make corrections?
Thanks.
Is there a site online you could send me a link to?

Can you move the AnythingSlider code into the ajaxCallback function?
Regards, TC
I tried that before, it didnt work. I have uploaded the changes. Have a look. Thanks
It is working now, but it’s detecting the slide dimensions incorrectly and setting everything 0px x 0px. Can you try moving the code after the content has faded in. So search for:
$('.content-inner').fadeIn(800);Replace with:$('.content-inner').fadeIn(800).show(0, function () {
... anything slide code here...
});Regards, TC
Hi! Could you be so kind as to send me code to add captions underneath photos in the Fancybox 3 column layout? Thank you!!
Hi,
First add this code into the portfolio HTML : Find the<li /> with the class one-portfolio-item. Add this <p></p> tag with the text inside the <li />
<p class="portfolio-caption">This is some text</p>
Now open the style.css and adjust the height to 243px of this class ”.threecol-portfolio .one-portfolio-item”.
Finally add this CSS code to your style.css file. You can adjust both the heights depending on the amount of text.
.one-portfolio-item p.portfolio-caption {
background: #000;
bottom: 0;
color: #FFFFFF;
height: 40px;
padding: 10px;
position: absolute;
width: 273px;
}

I purchased this theme and find that you are missing the pagestyles.css from the contact-form folder.
Can you fix this/add it? Or send it to me please? romickla [at] gmail [dot] com

Hi TC, thanks for your fast response.
I deleted it, still I get the message(I am using ghostery for firefox) that the tracking from twitter badge still exists. Is there a way to remove it?
And while I am at it, I do not find the place where I can delete the navigation for the background in the footer. It always shows the forward, pause/play and backward buttons, yet there is nothing in the basic source as far as i can see. Is there a way to remove this feature?
Other than that I had a great time adapting this theme to my needs. You did a great job at coding/commenting/outlining how it works and making everything “piece a cake”, even for a non coder. Thanks for your hard work for this dope price.

If you want to disable the fetching of tweets, open js/scripts.js and find this line and set it to 0:
tweetCount = 2,If you still want to use the backgrounds, you can force hide the controls with CSS . In your stylesheet add:
.storm-controls { display: none !important; }Regards, TC
Awesome, works like a charm. Thanks! Smashill
Hi, where do I find the twitter badge code so I can remove it?
Can you search in the source of the file for
social-icons/twitter.pngand remove the entire line.
Regards, TC
Hi
I have finished the website thank you for all your help so far. I have one last problem. The website seems to work fine in IE9 , safari, firefox but in chrome all of the pages work, however if you click on the music page then after that non of the pages work. Its as if clicking on the music page makes the other pages (library, contact, shop) not work. Please HELP !
My URL :michaelblount.co.uk
thank you
kt
It looks like the music page has more validation errors than the others, perhaps fixing them would solve it.

I’ve been playing with Storm and Pearl. I just added Ajax to Pearl, and life became much easier.
However, as you mentioned in answer to my question above that rest of the galleries also work in Ajax Version.
But PrettyPhoto is not working in Ajax Version. I tried copying the code from normal version to Ajax. But it opens the picture in a new window instead.
I am already using the following script in scripts.ajax.js file:
// Create the gallery rollover effect
$('li.one-portfolio-item a').append(
$(' ').css({ opacity: 0, display: 'block' })
).live('mouseenter', function() {
$(this).find('.portfolio-hover').stop().fadeTo(400, 0.8);
}).live('mouseleave', function() {
$(this).find('.portfolio-hover').stop().fadeTo(400, 0.0);
});
// Gallery
$('.serene-portfolio a.portfolio-thumb-link').serene({
onOpen: $.fullscreen.unbindKeyboard,
onClose: $.fullscreen.bindKeyboard
});
// Gallery 2
$('.galleria-portfolio').galleria({
width: 900,
height: 450
});
Serene Full Screen and Galleria work great. Using your answer to one of the questions above.
I guess i’ll need to insert some code for the ajax to load pretty photo script.
Help Please? Spent last 5 hours trying to solve this.
Also, is it possible for you to examine and fix minor bugs or provide instructions on how to fix bugs if any experienced on my site once i am done editing? I would send you the list of fixes / bugs via email. and you can provide a quote accordingly.
Thanks 
In your scripts.ajax.js file, can you add in this code for the prettyPhoto gallery (this is from /js/prettyphoto.js in Pearl).
$('a[rel^="prettyPhoto"]').prettyPhoto({
theme: 'dark_rounded'
});
// Portfolio Quicksand filter
if ($('#portfolio-filter').length) {
var $data = $('.portfolio ul').clone();
$('#portfolio-filter li a').click(function () {
$('#portfolio-filter li').removeClass('active-filter');
var filter = $(this).data('filter');
if (filter == 'all') {
var $filteredData = $data.find('li.one-portfolio-item');
} else {
var $filteredData = $data.find('li.one-portfolio-item[data-type="'+filter+'"]');
}
$('.portfolio ul').quicksand($filteredData, {
duration: 800,
easing: 'easeInOutQuad'
}, function () {
$('a[rel^="prettyPhoto"]').prettyPhoto({
theme: 'dark_rounded'
});
});
$(this).parent().addClass('active-filter');
return false;
});
}Sorry, we are not available for custom work.

I have tried this already. All it does is that scrollbar’s height keeps on increasing. the prettyphoto box doesnt load.
In the head of the page, have you added in the links to the prettyPhoto JS and CSS files?
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="js/prettyphoto/css/prettyPhoto.css" /> <script type="text/javascript" src="js/prettyphoto/js/jquery.prettyPhoto.js"></script>Regards, TC
The main reason for purchasing Storm was its Ajax Capabilities. Otherwise the look, the feel, the styling options of Pearl are just great. But Pearl lacks Ajax. is it possible to have Ajax in Pearl ? working with Both Galleria and Serene.
I have purchased both themes. Trying to integrate Pearls features into Storm. But i was just thinking, If Pearl had Ajax, it would be much easier, rather then taking so many elements of Pearl and putting them into Storm.
Thanks.
Yes it is possible for Pearl to have Ajax, you’d just need to pick apart the scripts.ajax.js from Storm and copy the relevant parts for the Ajax functionality over to Pearl. Then move any JavaScript required for the content of the pages into the ajaxCallback function. Also you’d need two scripts from Storms plugin.js file – jQuery BBQ and jQuery hashchange event. It’s not a small or easy task though.
