Hi, Can you mix slideshow with video in the same portfolio item either as a mixed video/photo slideshow or as two separate elements one under each other in the right column?

Thanks?

Sorry, but no :(

You can have one slider and below the slider you can have video, but you can’t have video in slider, or 2 sliders.

thanks for the sidebar help, I did the follow:

To add more sidebars to the theme, you’ll have to edit some files (Appearance -> Editor) In bra_theme_functions.php duplicate this section as many times as you need new sidebars register_sidebar(array( ‘name’ => ‘3’, ‘description’ => ‘Optional sidebar’, ‘before_widget’ => ‘ ’, ‘after_widget’ => ‘ ’, ‘before_title’ => ‘

’, ‘after_title’ => ‘

‘ )); Just change the name to 4, 5, 6… In bra_custom_fields.php duplicate <option value=”3” <?php if (get_post_meta( $post->ID, $this->prefix . $customField[ ‘name’ ], true ) == “3” ) { ?> selected=”selected” <?php } ?>>3</option> and replace 3 with 4, 5, 6…

... and all seems fine except for one bug. On page edit, in the Brankic custom fields, Select Siderbar – the list goes 1,2,3,3,3,3 (set up six sidebars.) As I said, this seems to work fine unless I go back to edit the page and then it defaults to the last ‘3’ sidebar. Should I care? and what’s up?

thank you again

Hi,

check again the code. There is value attribute, and also another 2 places where the same number should be.

Great theme. Is there a way to place the portfolio thumb page at the bottom of an individual portfolio entry page, similar to how cargocollective sites are set up? (For example: http://www.jorydayne.com/)

I’d like to make the portfolio navigation into more of a loop, rather than navigating back to the thumbs each time. Thanks!

Hi,

there are already Next / Prev arrows. We’re not planning to add thumbs below, but maybe there is such a plugin which can work…

Just make sure that plugin support custom post types.

there is an extra ”;” in line 159 of bra_pagenavi.php it is just an extra semicolon in the pagination…great theme though, great work

Thanks,

please use your purchase account when commenting such a things ;)

Oh and is it possible to have a ‘recent blog entries’ short code to put on the home page?

Thanks.

There is no such a shortcode. You can use portfolio shortcode (since the version 1.3) to display your blog entries.

Thank you for what appears to be a great theme. However, I have a few issues.

1. Do you have a forum because it’s too time consuming to trawl through 20 plus pages of comments? 2. I cannot get the portfolio to work. It comes up as though it was a blog listing. I’ve also tried importing your content – and this doesn’t change things. It’s not terribly clear in your help file about the Cat ID codes – as my post categories are also included under the CAT IDs. 3. Is there a way of transferring portfolio entries from a previous theme? When I activated your theme, the 30 plus portfolio entries I previously had with my old theme have disappeared. They are clearly in my php database – but don’t transfer across. 4. Is there an ideal image size for the slider to work efficiently as in your demo? 5. Do you have a portfolio list of other sites that have successfully used your theme? This would be handy.

I would appreciate your help. Until these areas are sorted, I cannot fully transfer to this theme.

Many thanks

Tobias

Hi Tobias,

1) Forum is something we’re thinking about and there will be one in the nearly future. My opinion is that TF should create this section searchable, because I’m not a fan of external places for support. Everyone should see our service, not only registered users.

2) When you hover over the category name in your dashboard, you’ll see that ID in status bar. There is drop down list o categories in shortcode button Portfolio, so there is no need to get the ID harder way.

3) This should be job for some plugin. Maybe this one http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/convert-post-types/

4) Full width slider should be 960px. If there is sidebar, it’s ~700px.

5) This is another thing we’re thinking about. We’ll add this to our new website soon. Meanwhile, get some of the URLs from 20+ pages of comments…

Please, I need help with BigBang Theme. Can You set the “Home Portfolio” page (in “Home” menu) just Live Preview? I get the “Blog” page.

And in Contact “Full width map” page You can put my location? I can not find where to change it.

I’ve also seen other error on the “Home” page, in this text: “Hello and welcome, we are brankic1979, one of Themeforest’s top authors.” There is a blank space, I can not remove. I would like it to look like in the Live Preview.

Thanks!! ;)

Thanks in advance

Hi there I’ve recently purchased the Big Bang theme. In the past I’ve purchased the Scope theme which came with very clear instructions about how to manage the homepage etc. Is there somewhere I can find the same kind of instructions for Big Bang? I’m not a coder or anything so just want some step by step instructions of how to set up the homepage so it appears as it does on your demo. ie how to upload large images for the rotating promo etc. Thanks

hello,

Please could you let me know hot to change the speed of the sliders. I would like each picture to show for longer.

many thanks

Hi,

you’ll have to edit manually javascript/jquery.flexslider.js

It’s near the end of the file.

If you have the latest version, you can do it from Appearance->Editor bigbangwp\slider.inc.php

can you please include all of the shortcode’s variables in your next update in your pdf? For ex. the different types of list items.

Hi,

it’s already included in the latest update…

Hi,

The more I work with this theme, the more I appreciate it. Great theme. I have a question about the alternate sidebars. Is it possible to extend the number beyond the three (excluding the default) provided in the theme.

Thanks

Hi chast (thanks)

To add more sidebars to the theme, you’ll have to edit some files (Appearance -> Editor) In bra_theme_functions.php duplicate this section as many times as you need new sidebars
register_sidebar(array(
        'name' => '3',
        'description' => 'Optional sidebar',
        'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
        'after_widget' => '</div>',
        'before_title' => '<h3 class="title">',
        'after_title' => '</h3>'
    )); 
Just change the name to 4, 5, 6… In bra_custom_fields.php duplicate
<option value="3" <?php if (get_post_meta( $post->ID, $this->prefix . $customField[ 'name' ], true ) == "3" ) { ?> selected="selected" <?php } ?>>3</option>
and replace 3 with 4, 5, 6…

  

Hello,

Thanks for the great theme. I’m a newbie so excuse my ignorance. How do I change the contact information on the contact page?

Hi,

Brankic Panel -> Contact

Content on the left is the content of the page with contact page template.

Thank you, got it!

Hi!

Thank you for a great theme!

I was wondering if there is a way to align elements to top? http://demo.brankic.net/bigbangwp/elements/ If you check this page in either chrome or firefox you can se that items all have a different margin against the top.

Thank you.

Hi,

I’ve change some setting in my shortcodes, so autop is not working right. I’ll fix this in next update. Right now, solution is to (in HTML editor) remove all spaces / line breaks between shortcodes.

Heya,

Was wondering how to disable the semi transparent box on the grid. And/or if it’s possible to add a textbox on the thumbnail in the grid?

Thanks

Hi,

do you want to disable opacity and hover effect on grid?

You have to add this to Extra CSS in Brankic Panel
.clients img {
  opacity: 1;
}

It’s not possible to add text to the grid, but you can try to combine one line of grid, with line of text (columns).

I hope this makes sense…

Thanks!

Regarding the textbox, I’ll see if I can do a combination of grid/columns. Worst case I’ll just add a the text on the thumbnail.

Hi, me again :)

If I choose on Work page 3 column layout without hover what happens to my Home Page > Recent work? Will I be able to have hover on facility just on that page?

Thanks

Portfolio section on home page and your Work page with 3 columns have nothing to do with each other (it’s a shortcode which can be different on each page)

Hi, What player are you recommending for self hosted videos?

Thanks

Hi,

I’m sure there are a lots of plugins. I’ve never worked with self hosted videos, so this is why I can’t help you :(

Hello, I going to buy this theme and i need to know one more thing. In all the sites of people ho use the template, all of them shown the same web favicon. I need to know if its possible to use my own. In the demo, there no one.

Many thanks!

Hi – I just bought your template. Looks great but I have no idea how to add a photo slider like your example in the home screen and also how do I add the last 4 blog entries to show on the home page?

Also Im getting this error on top of my website /home/content/b/r/e/brettyarr/html/wp-includes/post-template.php on line 387 class=””>

Thanks

I’ve got your email, but I had some personal things to do, so you’ll have to wait for another 24hrs…

Hi,

is your email valid?

I’ve got Mail delivery failed message for your email brettyarr@me.com

Yes that’s my email address or send to brett@brettyarr.com

Thanks

Hi !

I’m looking in my home page, under the thumbnails of portfolios, where is the title of each (and only that), to show other stuffs, like autor or excerpt. So, where is it in the code ? In which file ?

Thanks you so much for your work by the way – impressive.

Hi,

it’s not that easy, but you should try to change function Bra_portfolio() in includes/bra_shortcodes.php
