​Hello,

There is a big performance issue in the latest theme version 2.27. We updated our huber theme from 2.17 to 2.27, so unfortually we can’t say in which huber version this issue within huber/lib/sections/hub/hub-tabs.php ​was coming to code base.

We think the problem is the SQL-query in the lines 28 to 62 in huber/lib/sections/hub/hub-tabs.php (version 2.27)​. After the theme update the load of our database raises ​from 0.08 to > 2 and the amount of database connection raises from ~15 to > 600. This was killing the complete website.

Our solution was to rollback only this file to the file of huber version 2.17. Fortunately​ the rest of the theme hasn’t any problem with this kind of rollback.

Best regards,

Ben

I’m not able to replicate this issue on my server and nobody else has reported it so it’s not possible to diagnose the problem without access to your site unfortunately.

Hello again,

I’m pretty sure the reported problem occurs only on realy large sites. Our wordpress has around 40k post and 95% of them are articles which are associated to hub pages. On your demo page are only some hundred postings, so the problems wouldn’t appear.

I can see how that would cause a high database load with regards to the code in hub-tabs.php.

I’ll include the ability to disable this code in the next theme update, as it’s not essential, it just detects whether there’s any posts to load in order to the show relevant hub tabs.

Hello, firstly i want to say that you make great stuff ghostpool , I’ve search and it seems like you wanted to add RTL at some point but maybe the demand was not high. Do you consider adding RTL version also ? I have 0 idea how to make LTR to RTL and want to use this theme so bad ;)

Hi there,

There are no plans to add RTL support to this theme. As is stated at the top of the item page, this theme will not receive new feature updates, only essential updates and bug fixes. :)

Hi, I am really considering switching from my current theme to HUBER. It looks fantastic. BUT I saw a comment saying you work on a new review theme (which then might be even better?) – do you have a release date yet? Or can you at least tell me if it makes sense to start working with HUBER now – will there be a easy way later to switch to the new theme?

Hi there,

I can’t give an ETA on the new theme currently, but I would recommend waiting for the new theme, if you’re in no rush to start your new site. I’m not sure about whether it will be easy to switch from Huber to the new theme currently.

Hi, I’ve juste bought your theme and have a question : Is that possible to add a User Rating Box into a page/post ? I don’t find this widget in the WP Bakery editor. I’ve Gauge too and it seems to be possible in it but not in Huber ? Tks

In fact, I want this : In a hub “A” with a “site rating”, I want to associate an another hub “B” with its own site rating. But when I do that and when I open the hub B page, I see the hub A User Rating Box, and not the hub B user rating. Tks

Well, I found something : in the hub B parameters, I can choose the “Primary Hub” to “Select a primary hub which will be shown in the hub header, GP Rating Box and GP Affiliates widget for this post/page.”. But if nothing is fill in this field, the hub A datas are shown, and not the hub B datas

Hi, how can i make a backup of my review done with Huber theme?

Is there a place where theme makes a backup of the contents?

Thank you, Davide

Hi there,

Theme’s do not back up your content. You export all your WordPress data including reviews from Tools > Export. There are also many backup plugins available.

Hello, I would like to say that your theme is superb. I have been using your themes (Gauge then Huber) since 2015 on my site and they are superb.

- I would like to know, are you thinking of releasing a new theme of the same kind?

- And is it possible to offer you development ideas for your next theme?

Because me and my team have been using your themes for 5 years now and some points can be problematic. Cordially

Hi there,

Yes, I am working on a new theme which sill have hub and review features. There is no ETA on this theme currently :)

I’m open to ideas – if you have any please email me at https://themeforest.net/user/ghostpool#contact

Hi, Before buying your theme, I’ve got a question. In the hub “latest news”, is it possible to add a review page, including a rating box for users ? For example in your demo, into the Injustice 2 page, is it possible to add a rating box in the “Injustice 2 review (PC)” page ? Do we have to use an another kind of page to do that ? Thanks,

Hi there,

You can add the rating box widget to review pages as well. :)

I need to update the rev slider plugin which has not been renewed with the latest updates. This is because it creates slowdowns and problems for the site. why didn’t you renew the rev slider version?

Hi there, the theme does not come with Rev Slider.

Hi,

Any news on the new theme graphics?

Thanks

Hi there,

New theme graphics? I’m not sure what you’re referring to?

Hi,

new review theme

I still have no ETA on this unfortunately. I’m still working it, and I would guess I’m about half way through. :)

Hi, I saw your theme and I must admit that it is really beautiful, in fact I decided to buy it to build my review site, it is expensive but I think it will be worth it.

I wanted to ask you two things:

1) I noticed that at the end of each review page there are two lists, on the left there is the “Good” column while on the right there is the “bad” column, but in order to buy your theme I absolutely need that you implement the ability to rate each technical feature in such a way that the final grade is the average of these individual marks, I saw that you did extraordinary things in this theme, so I think implementing such a thing for you is a no-brainer.

I’ve added some examples: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmXCWoE7aqDUybl3Gcr_dhqUpnLcPg?e=u0isQv

2) I saw that on the “Games” page there is a facet filter, so I would like to ask you if it is possible to insert filters with a box to select, instead of the scrolling curtains with more options, and if it is possible that the filter is applied immediately, without having to press the “filter items” buttonI look forward to your kind reply.

Regards

Hi there,

1) You can set multiple criteria/ratings for each post, but these are not related to the good/bad points. See an example: https://huber.ghostpool.com/demo-reviews/forza-horizon-3-review-ps4/

2) There are no options to modify the field types of the filter box or filter without pressing the button.

Please note:

This theme is priced much higher than the average theme to reduce the number of new customers and cover the costs of continuing development for existing customers. The theme will still receive bug fixes and essential feature updates. Unfortunately Envato does not offer the ability to charge for updates or for a subscription to the theme, which would be better ways of charging customers for continued development.

I thank you for the answer, I would say that I can buy it.

Two questions:

1) Since your data filtering system is not good for me, is it possible to add the “Search & Filter Pro” plugin to your theme? example: https://demo.searchandfilter.com/movies/

2) Is it possible to move (forever) the internal search engine indicated at the top right by that magnifying glass to place it at the top in the center for a long? exactly as it is shown after a search, and can this give me data on the searches my visitors do?

1) I have no tested this plugin, but it will depend on whether the plugin can search for custom taxonomies – if so it should work, but I suggest asking the plugin developer.

2) There is no option to move this you will need to use CSS to do this. WordPress does not log search data by default, you’ll need to use a plugin for this.

Pre-purchase: Is there a way to find more information on the advertising capability, such as all the possible placements, is there a dashboard/analytics for the advertiser, and payment integration?

Hi there,

The theme itself does not have any advertising features. It allows you to insert ads within posts or pages using the Text widget or element for example like any theme. However it is compatible with the Advanced Ads plugin here: https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-ads/

hello, can this: https://themeforest.net/item/buddy-multipurpose-wordpressbuddypress-theme/3506362 are compatible with huber, and if yes, when i integrate buddy on it, this section on huber(https://huber.ghostpool.com/activity/) are convert to buddy theme? best regards

Hi there,

The Activity page is generated by BuddyPress and will work when switching from Huber to Buddy.

I know that my support license is expired, but after last update facebook no longer fetch any images from any articles shared from my site. Can you fix that?

Hi there,

If you’re reporting a theme issue or bug and don’t have an active support license please email me at https://themeforest.net/user/ghostpool#contact with your WordPress URL and admin login details and I’ll take a closer look.

Hi, can you offer the review feature as standalone plugin? Just the settings in post-edit and the output in the frontpage? thx

Hi there,

You may be interested in my Ultimate Reviewer plugin which adds review features to any theme:

https://codecanyon.net/item/ultimate-reviewer-wordpress-plugin/23101267

Ah did not know this, so if we theoretical change the theme and using your Ultimate Reviewer plugin, the existing reviews from huber theme will still exists?

Ultimate Reviewer is compatible with Huber, but it’s not been tested the other way around as in using your Huber review data via the plugin with another theme. It should work, but I can’t guarantee this. Also note this does include the hub pages, hub tabs etc. just the review data e.g. site/user ratings, good/bad points etc.

What is the new review theme release date? I’m still waiting :)

Hi there,

I cannot give you an ETA on this unfortunately. It’s still very much a work in progress.

Would it be possible in a future update to add “TBA” in release date? Not all games or other things have a release date.

Hi there,

At the moment there are no plans to add this as it will involve rewriting how release dates are sorted which will take a lot of work, but I can do this as a customisation for you. If you’re interested let me know and I can give you a quote for this work.

We have the newest version of the theme installed but the featured slider has the images cut off and zoomed in. Not sure how what caused the change but could use some advice.

I have already sent you the info in a different email. Let me know if it didn’t arrive.

I have replied to your email.

I received your reply and contacted you back. Thanks in advance for your assistance!

Since some months in the Google review of my website that uses Huber theme review stars are not shown, maybe for a Google Structured Data change, is there a way to show them again?

Hi there,

Have you updated to the latest version of the theme (2.24.1), as a recent update should have fix this issue.

Thank you so much guys, I’ve just tested and finally stars appear on Google an all “Review” articles.

The update you rolled out today is causing massive Ajax errors and blowing up the admin console.

Hi there,

If you’re reporting a theme issue or bug and don’t have an active support license please email me at https://themeforest.net/user/ghostpool#contact with your WordPress URL and admin login details and I’ll take a closer look.

Hi,

When will the new review theme come?

Thanks

Hi there,

I’m working on it now, but can’t give you an ETA at the moment unfortunately.
