Hi! Is there a straightforward way to migrate my content from the AirWP theme to BigBang? Thanks!

Not that easy :(

Pre-sale questions please: Can I upload my own fonts? Can I play music? What about individual music on each portfolio page? (I don’t want the same music to play on my baby section as my men’s section of photos). Can I change the colors/fonts/backgrounds in each section? Is there an easy photo sort and drag feature within the portfolios? RPight click protect? Can I have a full-screen slideshow on my opening page (no margins). Also, in the portfolio pages, is it possible to open the photos full-screen with a slider or arrows? (right now they open up fairly small). Thanks!

Hi,

most of these you can solve with plugins.

Also, most of these changes require hiring freelancer because you can’t do it out of box…

Ooops never mind read the FAQ page and it was the first answer. So problem solved. Thanks!

Hi! The portfolio page only shows photos under the “portrait” category, and doesn’t show any other categories to select. I’ve uploaded my content using the portfolio, and put them in their categories, but none of them show up. Unless I put them in the “portrait” category, nothing shows up on the portfolio page. Any ideas?

Insert again shortcode and choose right parent category.

Posts must be in subcategories of the category which is selected in shortcode…

I downloaded Big Bang and tried to install into my wordpress I keep getting an error message that says the style.css stylesheet is missing. I have unzipped the file and it appears to be there but wordpress won’t recognize it. Please help.

Hey,

I really like your sliding graph bars used on the demo about page, is this a wordpress plugin or your own work?

Thanks

It’s not a WordPress plugin, it’s my own jQuery plugin. You’re free to use it (you can see it in the source…)

Thanks, is it simply a case of inserting a short code? I would gladly purchase your theme if the sliding graphs were readily accessible via the post page.

In our theme it’s shortcode. You don’t have to buy the theme if you need this option. If you have some HTML/CSS/jQuery knowledge you can get it from the source…

Its the same on all pages – on your template i want to move section-title text-align-center below image slideshow

Please don’t open new thread, just use REPLY.

You can’t do that. Slider is always on the top of the page. Of curse, you can edit page.php but we’re not offering support on changing our original design…

ok. i’ll do it through page.php – its all a bit intermingled

how do you move h1 text below image slider

Try some other blog page layout.

If you have some basic PHP/HTML skills you should edit page-blog-X.php or index.php and single.php…

hey there, could you please tell me how I remove the header (logo and navigation) from ONE SITE ONLY? I have copied the page template and put in

<?php /* * Template Name: NoHeader */ ?>

but when I delete

<div class="section-title"> <h1 class="title"><?php the_title(); if (get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), BRANKIC_VAR_PREFIX."subtitle", true) != "") { ?> <span><?php echo get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), BRANKIC_VAR_PREFIX."subtitle", true); ?></span><?php } ?></h1> </div><!--END SECTION TITLE-->

the site is messed up.

What am I doing wrong here? Could you please help me? THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!

Don’t know what you did, but it’s not enough just to simple copy paste page template.

There’s easier way. Just show me the URL of the page where you want to remove this section and I’ll send you Extra CSS for hiding…

Hello! I just purchased this theme and am wondering if there is a way to make my blog content area larger. On my current site (http://cieradesign.com/blog/) my images are all 700px wide and I would like to stick with that size when I move to this new theme. I would also like my sidebar to be 300 px wide. I tried to figure this out using Firebug but the date and comment boxes keep getting messed up when I adjust the width. Thanks

You can remove sidebar on blog pages.

If you want to customize theme layout, you should hire freelancer…

Yes DeejayRobot

Anyone else having problems with the H1,H2,etc all being the same font size?

best,
Deej

Hi,

Yes, they are all same sized. If you want to change sizes of H elements add this to Extra CSS (and insert new font sizes)
h1.title {
  font-size: 22px;
}
h2.title {
  font-size: 22px;
}
h3.title {
  font-size: 22px;
}
h4.title {
  font-size: 22px;
}
h5.title{
  font-size: 22px;
}
h6.title {
  font-size: 22px;
}

We love this theme, thank you. I am trying to relaunch my site by new years. Hopefully you can help. I am loading images into the portfolio items, and they are scaling up to fit the area on the individual pages. Any way to stop this from happening? This is a major hang-up for me right now.

Hi,

Not sure if I understand your issue. Images are always 100% wide in portfolio slider…

Sorry for the confusion. I don’t mean the sliders. I mean the individual images that you can set for portfolio items.

i get this: 360px × 504px (scaled to 627px × 878px)

Is there a way to keep it at the regualr size? I am loading photos and they get scaled up too much

Sorry, but no. Images are stretched to full width of container. Of course, you can increase canvas size of your small images (to 627px wide)

The issue I was having with scrolling on the homepage in Chrome browsers was related to the sliding graph bars. I’ve removed them from the page and it seems to be working fine again.

Please let me know if you’re able to find a solution.

Cheers!

Sliding graphs don’t work, or something else. Sorry, but I don’t understand your issue…

I am new to wordpress and I got as far as to install the theme and wordpress and set up but now that it’s time to add content and make the site work, I feel I don’t have enough information to create the gallery of images and customize the look based on the theme’s capabilities. Could someone give me some resource or some feedback about how to make the images that I add look like the demo and with the toolbar at the top with drop down menus. I am very confused.

Hi,

It’s all explained in the help file. There are instructions how to setup the theme like on live preview…

is available in other languages???

No,

It’s translation ready with only default English .po file…

how can i create portfolio gallery that doesn’t deep link to case study page. Just standard lightbox window effect without having to hover over portfolio image and clicking on magnifying glass.

So basically I want to load a bunch of images that are responsive but when clicked on open full size in lightbox window.

I don’t wish to add any descriptions, titles or links overlaying images.

Thanks

There is no such an option. You should hire a freelancer to customize portfolio shortcode to modify hover=”no” feature…

Awesome theme. How do I change the slider speed? It scrolls a bit too fast. Thanks so much for your awesome support! Must be keeping you busy :)

Hi,

you should edit slider.inc.php (Appearance -> Editor). Near the end of file are settings for page/posts/portfolio slider.

A few questions:

1) How can I make my logo bigger and change the location? I’d like to change the size and maybe center it and move the navigation to the center (similar to what brecibene asked: “Is it possible to change the position of the navigation menu? I was hoping to center it within the header, so that I can put a banner across the top instead of a small logo in the corner. Here’s an example of what I’m talking about: www.mint102.com”)

2) Where is the contact form? It is not mentioned in the shortcodes and no page was created.

3) I tried creating two columns for ‘hours of operation” as you can see http://sykesvilletaekwondo.com/ but they are still in a single column.

4) I tried to use the shortcodes for my team members, hoping it would look like your demo (http://demo.brankic.net/?theme=BigBangWP) but it definitely does not. There are no images and no team member titles. Just the Description. I copied the shortcodes exactly. http://sykesvilletaekwondo.com/about-us

I’m not sure why I’m having such a difficult time with this theme! Please help me resolve those issues.

Thank you!

Hi again,

It shouldn’t crop images. We’re using rectangular logo on our live preview as you can see.

4. Try to insert image directly in front of the text (5th Degree Black Belt…)

The ‘Team Members’ still does not work. I created a test page and used your shortcode EXACTLY and the same thing happens http://sykesvilletaekwondo.com/test . I’ve deactivated every plug-in to see if there was some incompatibility but that does not change things. I have the updated version of Wordpress and I’m assuming I have the most recent version of the theme since I purchased it two days ago.

I also do not know how to use the various icons. I uploaded the zip drive to my ftp but that does nothing. I unzipped it to find that it was a photoshop file but I do not have photoshop. I sent it to a friend with photoshop and found out it is an entire sheet of icons, not the individual icons. How am I supposed to use these?

Thank you! I appreciate your help.

Hi,

not sure why this happens. Maybe you’re using wrong type of quotes in shortcode.

May I get access to your dashboard? Send me an email through contact form on our profile page with u/p. It will be answered in next few days (too many emails during Xmass and NY :( )

Icons are PSD file and you (or your friend) should have basic image editing knowledge…

The YouTube video Brankic custom field isn’t producing any results when I publish a post on my blog. No video shows on the post. I have entered the full URL into the field. Am I missing something?

Hi,

what URL have you inserted (so I could try it myself)

You’re right. I’ve made a logical error in custom.js.

This is how it should look when you apply the change http://demo.brankic.net/bigbangwp/2012/06/errare-humanum-est/

To apply this change, you’ll have to replace custom.js (in folder javascript) with this one http://demo.brankic.net/bigbangwp/wp-content/themes/bigbangwp/javascript/custom.js

Only change is in one of the last lines
//remove .post-media if there is no featured image or video
if ($(".post-media img").size() == 0 && $(".post-media iframe").size() == 0) $(".post-media").hide()

Sorry for inconveniences and Happy New Year!
