And now it is all back! I went info the customize button, made no changes – did not save and now it is back? need to know why if possible (this goes with my previous post).

Hi,

this sounds like some kind of caching issue indeed.

Lubos

I recently updated (I think) the theme using the envanto plugin for theme updates. It has changed some of the elements making the site much less usable. I thought I was using a child theme? it is present but doesn’t look to be active? (I cant tell) but Both the theme and the child when viewing the site are now changed (Mainly the top of the pages are taller showing more of the scrolling pictures – making it harder to see the text displayed there . Also the color of the banner at the top has changed back to the blue theme color instead of the color I had set. I’m not sure how other parts of the web have changed either. I’m writing to see if you have a quick fix for these problems? Again I thought the child theme use would assure my changes to the theme would be protected during the update process for this township?

It also looks like I have licenses. not sure why?

it may have been cached – seems to work now. Still need advice on activating and using the Child theme. Thank you.

Hi,

to see if your child theme is active just go to Appearance / Themes and check it out. You will have a TownPress and TownPress Child there, the TownPress Child should be highlighted as active.

Again I thought the child theme use would assure my changes to the theme would be protected during the update process for this township?

It depends what kind of changes do you mean. If you mean code changes then this is true if you made those code changes in a child theme files.

It also looks like I have licenses. not sure why?

I am not sure what you mean by that

If we update TownPress from version 1.2.2 to 6.1.3, no theme settings will be adopted. Since in the new version the settings are made via the “Customizer”. and there is no more theme option. Furthermore, all galleries are no longer available. Is there a solution to update the theme?

Hi,

I guess you mean you’ve updated to 3.8.5, as that is the latest version. That said, the latest version is not compatible with the 1.x branch, which is already several years old, so you will have to redo a lot of your content to a new format. There are galleries, as you can see on the demo page: https://preview.lsvr.sk/townpress/galleries/

Hello,

Is there another widget like OpenWeatherMap API key which we can use with townpress theme. Something free and simple to use in wordpress without any api.

Hi,

I can’t recommend anything specific, but you can check out the official WP plugins repository: https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/weather/

Hi,

have you added your OpenWeatherMap API key? Have you tried it with some more generic location, like “New York, Us” just to test if that works?

Lubos

Hi everybody,

is there somebody who use old version of theme (1.6.4)? This theme is different and it is not easy to upgrade. Now, after WP actualisation to version 6.2.2. I have problem with documents category lists. Old documents are visible. But any newer pasted documents are not visible in category lists. Can you help?

Thx. J.

Hi,

hard to tell what can be wrong, you can try to enable the WP Debug mode to see if there are any errors when you create a new document: https://wordpress.org/documentation/article/debugging-in-wordpress/

1.6.4 version is several years old, so unfortunately I do not provide a support for it anymore. I would highly recommend to update to the latest version, even that it would indeed mean you will have to rebuild a large parts of your site. But you will not only get support for latest WP and PHP version, but also much better document management, more advanced events and directory listings.

Hello,

The menu doesn’t seem to work correctly on the mobile, seems Ok on desktop. Please advice. https://hellohyderabad.org Thx

Hi,

have you set up your mobile menu as per the documentation? http://docs.lsvr.sk/townpress.wp/#menus

Lubos

Is the current TownPress compatible with WordPress v6.3?

Hi,

so far I haven’t experienced any issues with it. Let me know if you come across anything and I will take a look at it ASAP.

Lubos

Hi, I’m using twonpress 1.5.. is this running with PHP 8? Greetings from bavaria, Torsten

Hi,

I don/t think it will work with PHP 8 as that version is several years old now. You can try to update up to 1.6.4 which you will find in the full package / Legacy folder, but my guess is that one won’t work with PHP 8 either.<./p>

I highly recommend update to the latest version as soon as possible (which unfortunately means you will have to rebuild a large chunk of your site).

Hello,

How can we setup multiple custom language selections in the townpress theme?

Wanted to try for Hindi & Telugu here in hellohyderabad.org

3d01d460-991b-4781-bcc4-f53c9faaa9d2 – 27 Jul 2023 REGULAR LICENSE

Hi,

you will either need a plugin for that or run a WP multisite installation where each language will have its own site.

Lubos

Hello,

Can we change the name of notices section to causes so that the URLs reflect Causes instead of Notices in the TownPress theme. Thx want - https://hellohyderabad.org/causes/health-camps instead of – https://hellohyderabad.org/notices/health-camps

License details – 3d01d460-991b-4781-bcc4-f53c9faaa9d2 – 27 Jul 2023

Hi,

you can change URL slugs under Settings / Permalinks.

Hi Lubos, Thank you for this beautifully designed theme. I would like to replace the gradient at the bottom of the background image from the demo with a sharp slanted line, essentially a triangular SVG image, like on this site: https://html5up.net/uploads/demos/solid-state/generic.html. Where should I place the code?

I guess you will have to upload it to your site and load via some custom CSS. I am sure there are some tutorial on that on the internet, that’s not something I can help you with unfortunately.

OK, I thought there was a best practice to follow in Townpress.

Then only theme-specific thing is to disable the google fonts under Appearance / Typography once you make the switch to a custom font.

Hello,

I have a problem with the theme bought from you. The right sidebar worked fine until today. I have a box for Notices called “Anunturi” and today I made a new notice and is not displayed in this area. If you press to view all notices “Vezi toate anunturile”, there is the new notice that I made. Why? Thank you

Website: sintana.ro

Have a nice day!

Hello, I don’t think so, could you check if there is a problem with theme files? Thank you

The problem is with the first page

I’ve checked your site and the “Oferta vanzare teren” notice in sidebar is there in both languages so it was surely a caching problem.

Ive started noticing that if I go and upload a document (documents on left menu), and specify that document to a category (2023 Newsletters). and then go to a page (left menu), create a lsvr “document” insert and link it to that specified category housing the documents, it wont show any documents. Im not sure what is going on. It started out a while ago but Ive been trying to rule out plugins etc. So far no luck on fixing it. Im on Townpress child theme. I went to envato market to double check its updating webtheme and it says api is invalid. but I havent touched that api in over 6 years.

Hi,

I’ve replied to your PM. Please make sure you are using the latest version of the theme (3.8.4)

Lubos

Noticing that several prior Short Code options from v1 are now gone: lsvr_tabs, lsvr_content_box etc… Am I missing something?

Hi,

indeed, v2 and v3 versions were a massive rework of the theme, many old shortcodes were removed. I recommend to use the native block editor instead where you can find alternatives to these basic elements.

Lubos

Hello, I’m trying to change either the font color or background color of the page title. I think the default is white for the font and black for the background. Thanks, Greg

Hi,

it really depends where exactly are you trying to change that. You can crate your own color scheme by following this tutorial: http://docs.lsvr.sk/townpress.wp/#colors

Hello. we have bought the update for this theme because our old one works not with PHP 8 and higher.

Purchase Code (please send in private msg) Please note this theme was not purchased over this account. I am only the webdesigner.

Domain: www.visbeck.de

After we try to install update theme – the site looks totally different. I have rename the old theme folder and copy the update theme via FTP to the themes folder and rename it to the old one.

Can you help us, that our current version is ready and working with the newest update?

Thx & BR marcel

Hi,

If you’ve updated from the very old version to the latest one, then there are many changes to the design and functionality, your best bet is to follow the tutorial: http://docs.lsvr.sk/townpress.wp/#quick-overview

Lubos

hello. ok i have update some things… please have a look. www.visbeck.de – but under gallery . the pictures are not working like in your dem template… i dont know why, becuase all pics are under

I am sorry but you will have to contact me via an account with which the theme was purchased and have a valid support for further assistance. Thanks for your understanding.

Can I add some text or information to the top of the Documents page, like I can with the specific Document categories?

Hi,

I am sorry but that won’t be possible without changing the code. Basically you can just copy either the template-parts/lsvr_document/archive-layout-categorized-attachments.php file or template-parts/lsvr_document/archive-layout-default.php file (depending on which layout you are using) to your child theme (with respect to the relative path) and do your changes there.
