You can use links in projects descriptions and in image descriptions if you’re using v1.0.6.

Hey, once again any help to disable changeing slides by mouse scroll on main page? It’s confusing.

Please help:) PD

I’m sorry for delayed response. The answer is here in the most common questions on forum: http://support.forcg.com/topic/is-there-anyway-to-disable-slideshow-navigation-by-mouse-weel

I hope that helps! :) Have a great day!

Thx Flow! This is it! :-)

Hello!

Is it possible to integrate Google Calendar in this theme? I know it isn’t anywhere in the documentation but I was just wondering if there was a trick or maybe an update coming that would allow you to integrate Google Calendar into the Page.

Thanks.

That depends on what code does it use. If it’s iframe or embed code then it should work in all themes out there. If they have WordPress plugin then it’s likely to work with shortcode, too. I hope that helps :)

Hi firstable congrats for your work, i really like it! i have some question before to buy your theme.

- I want to link the tittle of the services (Marketed Research, Design &......) on the slider to another page can i do that with this theme?

http://themes.devatic.com/daisho/services/

Thanks for ur help

Thank you! Currently making title link is not possible but we already have this suggestion, so it will perhaps appear in the future. It’s easy to be changed though. I hope that helps :)

Ok we need this possibility, just let me know when its ready and i will buy your theme. Thanks ;)

Added yesterday, so now you can link services title to external page using title_link=”” property in the shortcode. I hope that helps! :)

Hi, I love the theme.Can you please tell me if you can add multiple thumbnails to a portfolio item?Meaning that you will have multiple images that will link to the same portfolio post? Thanks a lot. Tudor.

Multiple thumbnails can link to 1 external URL but not project. 1 thumbnail = 1 project.

Hi,

A Couple of questions…

1. Can I set the slider to auto rotate or is this feature planned for the future?

2. Am I able to add a form to the slider, like in this theme: http://themeforest.net/item/nexus-responsive-business-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/2572585

1) There is code for that on forum – it doesn’t come in admin panel options but it can be done quickly.

2) No. However, this is possible with custom modification of average difficulty. Some coding knowledge is required.

I hope that answers your questions :)

Incredible theme!

I would like to what you use to filter. Can i change the filter animation? The images move by default. Can i use other effects (like fading…).

Cheers!

Thank you! :)

I think that only this animation is available. We use this: http://isotope.metafizzy.co/

Hi. I have a problem with the body background on the contact page. It apears dark. I’ve checked with the browser tools and it sais the body has the background set to #191718 but this is not set in the admin styling section nor in the css file. Do you have any ideea what the problem might be? Thanks.

Please check [Pages > Contact] and the color there. It comes either from global [Daisho > Styling] or page-specific [Pages > your page > Background Color].

Javascript and main slider.

Hey! I just wonder how to turn off dynamic cursor slider on main slider. I mean on front page while useing scrolling down over the slides javascript is going creazy, slides change but page do not scroll.

So simple question is how to disable changeing slides by scroll? If You could provide some step by step info it would be great. General info also will help.

And of course – awesome job with theme!!!! :)

Thank you so much – I’m glad that you like it :)

The answer is here on forum: http://support.forcg.com/topic/is-there-anyway-to-disable-slideshow-navigation-by-mouse-weel

Is there a way to widgetize the footer ?

Well ,you see. This project is very important, and the company has a strict deadline for release. As in the stage we are in, wigitizing the footer is very important. I basically want to put a Shortcode within the footer. I thought in order to do this, I’d have to make widgets able to read shortcodes, then later widgitize the footer so that I can easily place my shortcode within the footer using widgets. Unless you have an alternative to putting a shortcode within the footer. That’ll be awesome. I’m willing to pay $30 for this.

I desperately need this.

Hey. I think I discovered a workaround. I don’t know if you mind me posting it around here as it involves code.

You can add widget to footer in many different ways. Either using pre-made scripts or using your simple one-line sidebar call. That will need some style adjustments. Some more information:

Difficulty: Easy
Time required: +/- 1h Third party developer will charge: +/- $50

We unfortunately do not provide custom modification services and I don’t recommend this theme for you because it doesn’t provide functionality you’re looking for out of the box and I’m not sure if you’re going to make it work yourself. It will provide such functionality in the future.

Hi there,

Very nice theme thank you. However, I don’t like when the header changes on the portfolio and blog pages (e.g. – the logo and menu icons disappear). Can you please tell me which template files to edit so that each page has the same header section as the home page.

Thank you

Those will be single.php, template-portfolio.php, header.php (just style if()), archive.php, search.php. Each one contains a piece of javascript code and compact header code. It’s relatively easy to be disabled if you know at least some basics of HTML /CSS/JS. I hope I helped and thank you :)

Hi Flow,

I installed a photo album plugin. The thumbnails of images looks good, but when open a photo the picture show behind the line and letters of the menu. Do you how to fix this?

tks

Perhaps experimenting with z-index in CSS will help. They must have used some low z-index value.

Tks Flow! It’s working! ;)

Hi Flow,

Hoping to go public with my Daisho-powered site this month, but the apparent bug where clicks on the portfolio grid sometimes take you to the wrong portfolio entry remains in 1.0.5.

All affected portfolio entries have at least one image. One has an embedded YouTube video, to which I added an image, just in case. No difference. This bug keeps me from going live as a buggy portfolio page makes me look a bit unprofessional..

I’ve seen your comments in a support forum where you hinted at fixing the bug in 1.0.6. Any idea when that might become available? :)

Thank you and keep up the wonderful work!

v1.0.6 is already available. It was uploaded to Themeforest yesterday – you can download it. The bug you described surely doesn’t happen in v1.0.5 if admin panel post configuration is correct – there must be some little misconfiguration somewhere but I understand that it might be hard to notice.

Anyway, v1.0.6 should fix that. We no longer check if projects have at least 1 slide in v1.0.6 – we just display them even if they have 0 slides.

Thank you for your kind words :)

I have read completely through your documentation.

Is there any way to disable the ‘filter’ feature based on a particular portfolio?

Unfortunately, there isn’t. Such information isn’t available in documentation, so you’re right that you couldn’t find anything there. Filter is essential for all portfolio pages. Since v1.0.6 – “shuffle” button can be enabled or disabled.

How tough would it be to remove it without causing issues – or simply hiding it somehow?

Also – is it possible within built-in configuration settings to create a threshold width for flexible content? I was testing on a Macbook Air and the width constraints were causing the header and navigation to mesh together. Hopefully that makes sense.

Thanks for the help!!

1. Very easy. You can just add it display: none;.

2. Can I have some example? Perhaps it’s also easy to fix.

I can’t upload any image to the portfolio posts. it gif this message. If installed the laatste version of firefox but it doesn’t help.

You browser doesn’t support native upload. Try Firefox 3 or Safari 4.

Have you installed Typography Plugin as well? It’s required. It’s included.

Hi, I installed the theme, imported the xml…. and it results to a blank page. Have any idea ? www.83studio.fr

Please activate Typography Plugin and deactivate all other plugins for now.

thx

Hi! Very nice one ;-) I need to have my site multilingual with a language switcher (2 languages). Did I miss it, or does the theme come without .po/.mo files? Any thoughts or suggestion whats the best way would be to make theme multilingual? Have used qTranslate or WPML before…

Or even any plans to add .po files to the theme in the next updates?

Thank you!

This is not what happens when I activate WPML on our development server with Daisho v1.0.6. All the posts are there. Only their translated versions are not there in admin panel.

Menus – you’re right – after activating plugin you need to re-attach and re-create them in different languages again.

Ok, I will try to update the theme to current version v1.0.6.1

While updating the theme, the whole “daisho” folder should be replaced/uploaded to server? Did not find any information about the updating process in the documentation.

Thank you!

BTW : Just rated your theme 5 stars. Great work, great support!

Thank you so much :)

Yes, you can just delete old folder and upload new one. I recommend doing backup copy!

Some things – like [Appearance > Menus] or [Appearance > Widgets] might need to be re-attached after updating.

Hey Flow, really great theme! I have got two questions:

1. “Is it possible to make a text with floating images as a portfolio drop down content instead of only pictures of projects?”

2. “I get the message that i need Firefox 3 or Safari 4 to place or delete images. Is it really only possible to do so with these browser versions?”

Thanks in advance.

Thank you :)

1. I’m not sure if I understand. Can I have more explanation, or some example or quick sketch/mockup?

2. Please activate Typography Plugin (included in the package). It is required. The uploader should work in all modern browsers.

Very nice theme! I’m considering it for a project but need to know if it’s possible to have multiple portfolios… sorry if this has already been asked…

UPDATE – scratch this question…. I found my answer!

p

ok… that brings up another question…. is it possible to have multiple categories for each portfolio? The project I’m thinking of using this theme for will have 3 separate portfolios with at least 4 or 5 categories for each portfolio… doable?

If you have 10 portfolio categories then you can make it like:

  • Page #1 (Categories 1, 2, 3, 4)
  • Page #2 (Categories 2, 5, 10)
  • Page #3 (Categories 9, 8, 7)

Etc.

Excellent… thanks for the quick response Flow!

Hi there,

Excellent theme.

Two questions only:

Is it possible to add share buttons to blog posts, just as the individual portfolio items have?

When I open my site (www.intuitiva.pt) in Firefox all the icons display incorrectly.

What can I do to fix these issues?

Best Regards,

Joel Galvão

http://www.intuitiva.pt/

Thank you :)

1) Unfortunately, no.

2) That’s because our style.css doesn’t exist anymore. Some plugin modified it perhaps and it broke paths. Font file can’t be found anymore. Please check that.

I hope that helps!
