Hi, Brankic! Thanks for you great theme and this discussion. I have some questions. Can I show random portfolio items on the main page?
Hi,
portfolio shortcode items are ordered by DATE (DESC). You can change it in includes/bra_shortcodes.php
'orderby' => 'date',
'order' => 'DESC',
orderby values are here http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Query#Order_.26_Orderby_Parameters
You’ll have to replace date with rand…
Thanks! I have some problems with hovers on portfolio and blog items on the main page. can you check it? http://caviarclothes.ru/ There is some code instead of text from entry.
<label>sort</label> <select name=”sort” id=”sort”> <option value=”date”>date</option> <option value=”random”>rand</option> </select>
bra_shortcodes.php: ‘orderby’ => $sort,
Hi,
about codes on hover: use Excerpt for those items. This is some custom css code you’ve inserted into page.
Thanks for SORT tweak. It may be useful for someone…
Hello. Amazing theme i love it! I am trying to use a shortcode button [bra_button] for an email button (mailto:link) do you lnow a compatible antispam encoder plugin, or way to encode the email adress? Cryptx breaks the layout of the button. Thans in Advance!
Not sure if I understand this problem.
I’m not an expert on these things 
Hi. I cannot figure out how to set the longer description text (full paragraph) that appears when I hover over a portfolio item. Where do I input this text?
Cheers
Hi,
you can use Excerpt. If there is no excerpt, script takes first few words…
HI, just purchased your theme and looking around, I made a static homepage, now there are 2 times home on my front page, 1 in the header and there is also a second one just below the logo.. How can I get the Home text away. Its not a link but just text..
The domain is here, you were right, I was using a shape on the portfolio page 
I now have two questions, the original “How do I centre the link button?” and also, when I create the permalink “portfolio” it no longer displays as above, but shows a blog style template. Do you know why changing the permalink to “portfolio” would cause this?
Hi Henry,
add this to extra CSS in Brankic Panel
.shaped .item-info-overlay a.view {
right: 100px;
}
2nd issue is becuase of your permalink structure. In this format, page with slug portfolio has the same URL as category archive for portfolio. You should try to change slugs, update permalink structure, or change default portfolio slug in includes/bra_theme_functions.php
'rewrite' => array('slug' => 'portfolio'),
I hope this makes sense…
Finally purchased the theme and working! I’m really happy with it so far, great work! I’ve just a minor issue with facebook like button from sharing options. When clicking on like or directly sharing a post from facebook, the image preview should be the featured image, but it’s not. Facebook ignores the featured images and extra images and use as thumbnail the first image from the post (inserted image in post). Is there a way to make facebook use the featured image? I tried with some plugins with no luck… This is the site: http://www.naolito.com
Thanks!
Hi,
I understand your issue, but I don’t see why FB doesn’t use Featured image becuase it’s the first image in the post. This is something with FB cache engine, and you can try to Google for the answer, because I don’t have one :(O
I added the code ”.preview {display:none;}” to remove the magnifying glass, is there any way to now centre the link button rather then having it slightly off centre?
Sure,
but I need to see URL of that page, because I don’t know what layout you’re using (I’m 99% sure you’re using shape)
Hi,
Great theme! But how do I activate the Slider on the home page?
Thanks!
You must use static Front page (Settings -> Reading).
Just add Extra images (below the Featured image) to that page (set for Front page)
Whats with Items which dont have an featured picture? What color will they are have when shown?
There is no logic to use portfolio layout if you don’t have featured image set.
This is a great looking theme that I’m hoping will fit my needs! One question though:
Can the portfolio page support a single column layout? Or is the content limited to the narrow column (i.e. The slider would not appear and the text would consume the whole width)?
Hi,
only layouts you can see on Live preview are possible. No single columns layout
Thanks for the super quick reply! Given your reply, can the slider image be kept but shrunk (to make the narrow column a little wider) or does the slider image always appear as a fixed width (i.e. smaller pictures are stretched to fit the space)?
Hi,
slider images are always stretched/shrinked to width of post/page container. You can’t change it’s width, only height…
Hi, Thanks for the help with the default theme, I still don’t get the icons in the main page for “Branding, Logo Design, Print and Copywriting” How can I add the icons. Thanks
Hi,
Why there are no images in http://aegmediasolutions.com/wp-content/themes/bigbangwp/images/icons/ folder?
Oh I see. You’ve unzipped whole file you’ve downloaded from TF. You should use only bigbangwp.zip and I suggest to install it again (right way)
Another question…I’ve put on the trash MIXED ORIENTATION porfolio’s category and now I don’t see nothing in portfolio page.
Why?
If your portfolio page showed items from Mixed orientation category it’s logical why there is nothing on your portfolio page
Hi, what’s new on versione 1.7.5 and which file I do change for upgrade to latest version??? 
Thanks
Hi, im also loving this theme 
I have one more question.
When I use the grid for my clients logo the first time i view the site most of the logo jumps around, then i update the browser and they jumps into there places. Is it only me having this “bug” ?
Greetings Jesper from denmark
Hi,
this happens sometimes and I can’t figure why it happen. I’ll add it on my post it right now and try to fix this in next update…
Thank you for noticing this…
Love this theme. I am looking to buy it but I tried looking at the demo on my iphone and the text on the homepage moves about resizing itself. If I installed the WPtouch plugin do you think this would sort out this bug?
Hi,
I guess you haven’t removed header frame (with purchase info…)
Try this direct link http://demo.brankic.net/bigbangwp
well, i have a new question, My website doesn’t load properly on my cellphone or any smart phone and it just says too many links or it just shows some broken codes!!! how i can fix this, I have some plugins installed like wp mobile detector or akismet, and set an api key also, please let me know how i can see my website in a mobile phone exactly the same as what i see in my computer? thanks again
Hi,
Without URL I can’t help you.
Try to uninstall all plugins (not AKISMET ) and see if this cause the problem…
thanks for previous answer, i fixed the fromtpage, i just needed to go to redirect page and redirect my website to the page i want once. I still can’t see anything under my reading page I don’t why????!!!!
thanks
Hey,
So I’ve been able to figure out the answers to all the questions I’ve asked you (thanks for your help!) but I’m stuck on the following:
Uploading .swf files as portfolio items using prettyphoto, I am unable to specify the width and height in pixels. Consequently, any .swf files will be displayed as 627 pixels across the board. I’ve tried your suggestions on the help file, but appending ”?width=xxx&height=xxx” doesn’t work, nor does the prettyphoto code (this is an example):
““
I’m stuck. Any suggestions?
Hi,
may I see the URL of the page with the problem, because I could see the source and try to figure it out…
Hi Brankic,
Your theme is so great, I am almost done my sight and love it so much, thank-you.
I have two things I need to clean up before I can call it ‘done’, and not sure how to do it.
1. Is there a way to just hide the portfolio slider on the portfolio page? I don’t have extra images added so I just see two arrows and they are covering my logo up (http://www.swiftkickcommunications.com/TestSite/writingportfolio/)
2. On the contact page if i remove the page title, the contact form title is right up against the border – is there a way to add a bit of space in between the border and the title? See http://www.swiftkickcommunications.com/TestSite/contact/ for reference.
Thanks again, your support is much appreciated!
Kelly
Hi Kelly,
1) You don’t have to use portfolio post type if you don’t have slider images. Just use normal blog categories/post because you can choose blog category too in portfolio shortcode.
2) Add this to Extra CSS in Brankic Panel
.one-half.last.only_contact {
margin-top: 30px;
}
I hope this helps…
Great, thanks the space is fixed and looks great.
For the portfolio – I essentially want it just like you have on the live preview as I don’t see a slider included on that portfolio page. Do I understand it correctly that’s because the posts are normal blog posts and not under the ‘portfolio items’ with portfolio categories? So i need to essentially move all my portfolio items over to blog items and add categories? If so, do you know how I could export the portfolio items and import them as blog posts? The idea of manually redoing them again makes me feel like poking a pencil in my eye. ha, okay that is maybe a bit extreme but…it would suck.
Hi,
you can’t use blog layout with portfolio items, sorry
I’m not sure if there is such a plugin that will also move Extra images.
This is one of the reasons I’ll give up from custom post types in next themes…
thanks for your answer…but i feel confused sorry. i would just like to have the portfolio page as you have it in the demo with no slider….not use a blog layout? do i need to make all my portfolio items blog items to get it done?
Hi,
just use portfolio shortcode and select blog category.
There is a problem if your portfolio page has the same slug as blog category, because blog template will be used.
Try to revert permalink settings to default (ugly one) and see if it’s working (just to make sure it’s permalink/slug related)
Hi,
thanks for your quick replies..
I tried to change the permalink back to the ugly default and it didn’t affect my portfolio page at all…still have the slider arrows displaying. I also changed the category ID in the portfolio shortcode to be a blog category and also still go the slider arrows displaying still…
any other ideas..?
thanks! Kelly
Please send me your wp-admin URL , u/p (via email form on our profile page) so I could fix this for you.
Also, please include your questions into this email
Hi!
I’m really interested in buying your theme, it’s amazing and elegant!
But I’d like to know if it’s possible to create more than just one portfolio.
Thanks a lot and congrats!
Hi vicintosh,
As you can see on our Live preview there are more than one portfolio page (with different items).
