we can not ask any questions in the forum because it says that our Item Purchase code is not valid!

Can you help please?

Envato’s database that verifies Purchase Codes (and entire Themeforest) is experiencing some downtime and problems right now (2:00PM – 3:30PM CET ). We connect to that database to verify purchase codes. It should be back online shortly. For me it already works!

Also, when I enter this page http://support.forcg.com/forum/daisho and login, I see the topic I added although I can not add a new one.

Yes, please see my other response for you. We verify purchase codes using Envato’s database but it is not responding right now. It happens often unfortunately. It should be back online shortly.

The item purchase code I have is not working. The forum does not accept it as valid, although I took the code directly from my themeforest download page.

At me it appears only as “Not a Valid Purchase”. I will wait another day to see if the issue is from Envato.

After that I will repost the topic again (I always save topic forums I make in separate documents – kind of a back-up maniac :) ).

It works now. I added the topic again. Thx.

I can confirm that it didn’t work 2:00PM to 3:30PM. It was working partially. I’m really sorry for inconvenience!

This topic doesn’t exist. You’ve got only one topic that you marked as “resolved”: http://support.forcg.com/topic/image-not-show-in-individual-portfolio-page

No other topics are linked to your account and the URL you provided leads to “not found”.

Hi FLow,

Can you please answer my question on the forum page. Is the one marked: urgent overdue ticket

Thx

Hmm, no such tickets exist. Only two are awaiting fix. What is its link?

OK, I will give it a try. Thanks. I’ll use the forum if I have additional questions. Thank you for the help.

Yes, on forum I can give you full code. TF comments strip it unfortunately and are inconvenient.

I hate to sound like a total noob, but… Can you give me a simple, “Replace this code with this code” explanation? Or at least give me a line number of the exact code string that I’m looking for? Or just the snippet of code that I’m looking for?

Nope, I can’t :P Themeforest comments will strip such code. Please use our forum instead. I already gave you full code actually.

1) Find bringPortfolio() function in index.php.

2) At it’s beginning (but after var permalink is already there) add location.href = permalink; return;

3) The end.

Hope that helps! For more code, please use support forum.

Hi, I got this error : Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ‘}’ in /homez/wordpress/www/wp-content/themes/daisho/framework/admin/background-menu.php on line 1

I’ve desactivated WP_DEBUG (false) but still shows off. I’m using the last WP version (3.4.1) on a brand new installation

How do I fix it?

Sincerely

See documentation. It’s in “Installation – Section C” as common problem. Hope that helps!

Hi, I thought I could solve the Portfolio custom link problem by just doing a simple 301 redirect of the individual portfolio items URL , to a new destination URL , but that doesn’t work.

I’m assuming because the portfolio navigation is wrapped in some kind of Javascript.

Is there anyway to disable that the portfolio items link reloads the page, so that you just get a straight item link?

Any help is appreciated.

Yes, it’s lightbox/popup window, page doesn’t refresh but URL should change (it’s new HTML5 feature). To do that you’ll need to trigger location.href = xxxx; in index.php in bringPortfolio() function. It will then redirect. Correct URL of project is defined in an array (at the beginning of that function script grabs URL to variable – easy to use :))

Hi, I can’t post a support question on the forum. I am looged in and it says you must be logged in to post a support ticket. I just want to know how to import/install the icons that were optional to download. I.E: the raphael and websymbols. Thanks.

Both are already there. Check documentation, Menus section. Those are alternative sets that you can enable in style.css by disabling current set. Just comment it out using /* and */.

Hello Flow,

I noticed in your demo version that most of the portfolio images link to the same page: http://themes.devatic.com/daisho/portfolio/bas-van-der-veer/ and not to their unique pages. Why is this happening? Is there a way to fix it?

If other projects don’t have title, description and images, they will be skipped and such invalid thumbnail will link to first valid project (with slides). So, yes, it’s just a matter of uploading correct content :)

Hi, I am having trouble getting the theme to work. Everytime I upload the xml dummy content my website stops working completyely and I have to start over. Please help!!

URL , please. Maybe there is some error. Does it happen after uploading XML sample content or entire theme?

Thank you for your reply! Really appreciate that.

I don’t know why you can’t see them. I checked both in Chrome and Firefox (I’m logged in only in Safari), and FB comments just there, at the bottom of portfolio page.

“You suggested a good workaround that will work – “Maybe just redirect the user to single-portfolio.php instead of load new content using jQuery”.”

Can you please tell me how can I do that? I’m not a pro in jQuery, and it is difficult for me to get this done. I think that should be a few fixes somewhere in index.php, right?

Thanks in advance.

I only see empty container: http://gyazo.com/a2ec4d21d558f998675d3d5115b38807.png?1342980200

Support forum is correct place to get code (TF comments strip code, so I can’t provide it here). Yes, in index.php you have bringPortfolio() function defined. Instead of having it load new content you just do location.href = grab_url_from_array_here; or some other trick to redirect user. So, yes, it’s very short and simple modification.

Furthermore, you will need to do the same in single-portfolio.php and template-portfolio.php.

I added Facebook comments on portfolio pages. And I have a very strange problem. I added FB comments to the blog posts as well (and they are working fine there), but on portfolio pages there is strange behavior, when I open a page from homepage.

For example, if you open a page directly via the URL : http://magnettico.com.br/portfolio/fortaleza-2020/ You can see my comment: “Fortaleza 2020 page.”

But if you open that page from the homepage (http://magnettico.com.br), something weird happens. I don’t see my comment there.

So, as far as I understood FB comments are working fine in single-portfolio.php, but it doesn’t work correctly in index.php. I don’t know why. Probably because if the user opens a page from index.php it loads using jQuery and don’t pass new URL to Facebook’s comments script.

How can I solve this problem? Maybe just redirect the user to single-portfolio.php instead of load new content using jQuery?

When I open link (1) and link (2), the pages are absolutely alike. I don’t see FB comments on both.

We update URL when you’re opening popup/lightbox with project and we use all available HTML5 features to mark it as new resource. However, since those HTML5 tools were introduced this year or past year and not all browsers fully support them (for instance Firefox is able to update URL but not title) some problems might occur.

You suggested a good workaround that will work – “Maybe just redirect the user to single-portfolio.php instead of load new content using jQuery”.

However, I don’t see FB comments at all (under both links) so I can’t tell you more. Have you removed them? Or perhaps I have to be logged in to see them?

One additional question pre-purchase. How hard would it be to change the “accent” or “hover” color in this theme? I love it but would like to use orange?

Very easy. However, changes need to be done in:
  • style.css (find/replace all blue colors to orange ones at once),
  • or “custom css field” (manually, one by one and your changes won’t be erased after theme updates)
  • or using Typography Plugin (manually one by one and your changes won’t be erased after theme updates).

Everything working great so far, thanks for the support, Flow. I have one more question. I’m using the portfolio grid as main page. Is it possible to have one blog post displayed among those other portfolio pages in the main page? I want to remove the menu items (contact, our team, services) from the header and place them in the portfolio grid. Can it be done? Thanks again.

Good to hear that :) Unfortunately, this can’t be done with default files but modification to achieve that is an easy one.

Q. I am looking to purchase this theme but I was curious if the logos placed in the row beneath the portfolio page would “scroll” if there were additional logos. I would like this section to be something like a “some of our valued clients” slider.

Currently there is no carousel for them. Those are static logos that come from widget. This means you can use some other data there as all.

I have it locally currently. What I’m doing is generating and importing content using a similar format to your content import and everything works fine but the thumbnails aren’t clickable. Any idea on how to fix my import file to make them clickable?

Also is there a character limit on the “portfolio client” field? Because something messes up when I do over a certain number. Is there a way to remove this?

“thumbnails aren’t clickable.”
Please make sure that your files are not modified (or if modified then in the way there are no JS errors in the console). I’ll need URL to tell you more. Please also try deactivating all the plugins for now. From what you wrote you took the good approach to do that.

“is there a character limit on the “portfolio client” field?”
Technical limitations are always present in places like that. You need to maintain reasonable and short amount of text. Please show me URL and I’ll find some solution.

Hello Flow,

For some reason my porfolio posts are unclickable on the portfolio page (nothing happens when you click their thumbnail image). Do you have any idea why this is happening or how I can fix it?

Best,

-Greg

Please try installation video as first step: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yvf2dcPfiHM

Secondly, I’ll need your URL to tell more. If files are not modified then this shouldn’t happen. Please deactivate plugins – it is common cause of problems if some plugin doesn’t follow WP standard and doesn’t use wp_enqueue_script().

I hope that helps! Awaiting URL .

Hi Flow,

What kind of translate plugin WP working in Daisho template? I tried Global Translator doesn’t work.

thanks!

Hi Flow,

I using the Version 1.0.2. What I need to do to update to 1.0.4? thanks

Yes, we improved [Daisho > Styling] to work flawlessly in v1.0.4.

Files responsible for background handling that were modified were style.css, light.css, index.php, header.php and framework/admin/background-menu.php
