Updated to latest version of your theme. Now I have lost the sidebars for my posts. They show up on the categories, but not on posts.

Thanks for the help!
In Brankic Panel -Blog you can define to show or hide sidebars in posts, blog page…
Forgive me, but I only see the option for blog single. What am I missing to have a sidebar for the blog page?
To define sidebar for blog page (not category page) you have to choose sidebar in Brankic Custom Fields below the editor.
Sidebar for category page is defined in Brankic Panel -> Blog
I’m sorry to bother you with a such a trivial question. It finally clicked. Thank you so much for your help. And thank you for your time and dedication to this theme and the people using it.
No worries.
Rate us with 5 star – it’s enough 
1. I have put social buttons and photostream widgets into the footer but the darker grey box is covering them up. How can I fix this?
2. Inserting the photostream shortcode into a page is not working. I have selected the portfolio I want to display, but nothing shows up.
3. The listwrapper shortcode is not working. Perhaps I am inserting my list wrong, but there are no bullets, just the element that I want to list. It won’t work for any of the listwrapper styles.
Hi,
May I see the URL to see grey box cover issue?
2. 3. I can do it for you if you send me wp-admin URL, u/p via email form on our profile page, but you’ll have to wait few more days (please include your question into email)
Hi there. The url is http://hrglass.co/amevents/
2. 3. I have figured out. Thank you!!
Hi,
Try to disable all 3rd party plugins to see if there is a conflict with our theme. I really don’t know what else can cause footer content to not appear correctly…
That worked. Thank you very much!
I am also wondering how to get a link and/or change color or font size in the subheader like on the sample site. (Where you have “Hello and welcome, we are Brankic1979, one of ThemeForest’s top authors.) Thank you.
I’ve added HTML A tag into Brankic Custom Field – Text next to page title
Great! Thanks. One more question – how do I make my portfolio display like yours (ie multiple portfolio categories together with the filter at the top). Currently, I have to just put each portfolio separately to display everything. The parent category is social and I have them separated between weddings and parties, but I can’t get all of social to display together. Let me know if that makes sense. Thanks!
If you have category SOCIAL and subcats WEDDINGS and PARTIES yu have to choose SOCIAL in portfolio shortcode pop-up…
Hmm..this isn’t working. Nothing shows up when I put this shortcode in: [bra_portfolio title=’Recent Work’ cat_id=’28’ no=’all’ show_filters=’yes’ columns=’3’ shape=’’ height=’’ hover=’yes’]
28 is the id of the “social” category.
Sorry to bother, but do you have any idea on this? I can’t seem to make it work.
Also, when I click to view a blog post it says “No posts found”. Any clue on this one?
Hi,
I don’t know what’s the category with ID 28. Does this category has posts. In help file is explained how to obtain correct ID if you don’t want to use Brankic shortcode portfolio button…
I have followed your directions on how to get the ID. In this category are 2 subcategories. I want my portfolio to display like yours – 1 main category with multiple subcategories.
I think some of the confusion is between Portfolio Items and Posts. On the demo site, your portfolio appears to be comprised of portfolio items, but you keep referring to posts. I don’t want my portfolio to look like blog posts.
If portfolio looks like blog page, I can only guess you have same slug for portfolio page and blog category. To determine if this is the problem, please use default (ugly) permalink structure.
If this is the case, try to change page/category slugs….
How to change font sizes? I’m pretty new at this. Do I change the font using em or px’s?
body {
font-size: 22px;
}
I use Yoast’s SEO plug in. In other themes I’ve used the theme would recognize that I was using a SEO plug in and disable the themes seo functions. I’m wondering if there are theme specific seo options that I need to deactivate when using a 3rd party seo plug in? Is anything getting doubled up?
Hi,
only thing that can be problematic is our way of making title tag (which is most important for SEO). In header.php replace<?php brankic_titles();with default WP title function
<?php wp_title(); ?>
Hi!
I was wondering if you could share with me the secret of how I can make it so my logo in the top left has a hover state of a dark grey version of itself.
I appreciate the help! Thank you.
You can’t do it out of box. To define hover on logo, you’ll have to add Extra jQuery script (we’re not offering support on this issue)
Isn’t it just a matter of plugging in some extra HTML into the header file in editor and the linking the action in CSS? I know this is a little out of the box, but it would really be a nice feature to add to the site for everyone who’s purchased this product.
Hi,
yes, it’s a few new lines, but we’re not providing this kind of support. Almost every layout/functionality change is just a few lines of code, but you’ll have to hire freelancer for these kind of issues…
Okay! Sorry about pushing it. I understand your position. You made a nice template, not a free coding class. I’ll figure it out on my own.
Have a nice day
Exactly – thanks for understanding!!!
I wish other understand that too…
Hi, thanks for this awesome template. I need to translate it into spanish. Is there any tutorial to do that? I didn’t see it in the help file. Thanks!
There is en_US.po file in folder languages. You have to use poedit software to translate it to es_ES.po .
Google for changing wp-config file to adjust it for custom language, or install WP in Spanish and you’ll need only es_ES.po file in folder bigbangwp/languages…
Is there a way to make the sidebar a different size? It’s sort of at an akward size and no ad sizes seem to fit there and look well. I’d like to get the side bar to be a standard size so I could put an ad in there.
Thanks.
Sorry, but changing the sidebar width affects and main content width, so it’s not only one change.
Freelancer with basic CSS skills can do it in 1 hour…
I downloaded your beautiful theme and notice in the documentation that you will set up the theme for us as it appears in the live demo. I emailed you earlier this week with the information listed in the documentation that you will need. I just wanted to find out when you will have time to get this on your schedule.
Thanks!
I’ll do it, just please give me few more days because we’re very busy these days (home makeover : )
Thank you. I hope your home makeover is going well. Can we expect this to be done today – Monday January 14, 2013? If not, please let me know when. Thanks again!
Just did it!
just bought site and installed the bigbandwp.zip and got this: Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_theme() in…./themes/bigbangwp/functions.php on line 3
Please help.
Hi,
Update your WordPres…
Hi Brankic
Can you tell me how I can select a specific colour for the theme i.e. 6453FC.
I do like your preset options, but none of theme work with my logo in terms of colour compatibility.
Best regards
Glenn
Hi Glenn,
you should choose one color style and edit css/colors/this-color.css .
You have to edit this file on your computer and upload it to the server (please keep the backup of this file, because css changes will be lost if you update the theme)
Great theme, thanks!
Two queries please:
1. I have used your javascript to disable the hover on the portfolio page. It worked perfectly and the text below the images takes me to the individual project now. Please can you give me a code snippet for making the featured image hyperlinked to the individual project, as well as the text below?
2. Once into the project page, I would like a long image across the top and text below (rather than large image to the right). Is there a way I can edit the template for the project page? Are there different layout options perhaps?
Thanks again, really like the theme
Hi,
1. You should use hover=”no” in portfolio shortcode. In that case, whole image and text will be link for single portfolio item.
2. You can’t edit easily portfolio custom post type. Instead of this rigid layout, you can use normal posts (you can choose normal category in portfolio shortcode)
I hope this makes sense…
Hi!
I’m trying to split a post in to multiple pages (very long post)
but the normal <!-nextpage-> (in HTML mode offcourse) does not do the trick.
Is this feature not included?
Please help.
Thank you so much!
Sorry, but this option is not included 
Can I include it? I really need it!
Hi,
To be honest, I’ve never worked with nextpage tag. I’m sure there is such a plugin which can help you…
I noticed your theme does not have a sitemap / archive page template. Is there a way you could please add one, or suggest another way to create one? Thanks so much.
There is archive page template (O http://demo.brankic.net/bigbangwp/category/blog/news/ ), and we’re not planning to add sitemap
Thanks. How do I use the Archive page template?
It’s used when you click on category name…
How do I have the blogs on the home page show everything until I clicked on “read more” when making the post? Right now it looks like you are choosing how many characters to select in the excerpt on the home page? Is this correct? I’d like to have more control over that.
Thanks.
the_excerpt();with
the_content();in index.php
If you want to control the number of characters in your excerpt follow these instructions http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_excerpt#Control_Excerpt_Length_using_Filters
Hmmm..What I mean is I want to have the read more show up where I mark it when writing the post..if that makes since.
Hi,
we’re not using read more shortcode.
Instead of this tag, please copy paste the content you want to be visible to Excerpt box.
There is no other solution our of box… Maybe some plugin… Sorry…
So if I use the “read more” tag when I’m writing a post that is ignored on the output?
We’re using default the_content() function. I think read more tag is used only on blog page, not in single post item.
I’m not an expert on these issues, sorry
Is there anyway to have the “hover color” on the top menu be grey?
You have all the colors of the rainbow, but I’d like something neutral. Is it possible to put in code somewhere? Thanks!
#primary-menu ul li a:hover, #primary-menu ul li.sfHover a {
background-color: #449999;
color: #FFFFFF;
}
I copied and pasted that code into my extra CSS and it didn’t change anything. My website is www.timeintopixels.com and the color remains the blue when the menu is selected.
I should probably clarify and explain that it’s not the “hover color”, but the color of the menu item when it is selected (when you are on the page). Is there anyway to change this color?
#primary-menu .current {
background-color: #657383 !important;
}
Still not working. I replaced that HTML color code with something bright but it’s still the stock navy blue color on the menu items. Any idea what could be wrong still? I love your theme, thanks for helping me trying to figure out what’s wrong. Let me know what I can do to fix this… I can give you access to my site if need be.
I figured it out. I just edited the color.css file and now I got it to work. No point of adding that extra code when I can edit the source directly. Thank you!
If you know how to access files on your server (90% of users don’t know how to do that) it’s better to change CSS file (and keep the backup on your computer). Just be aware that updating the theme deletes all files, so you’ll have to upload it from your computer…
I would like to get an author box to appear below my posts. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks.
There is a way but there is no specific style for this (so you’ll have to make it).
Here is good description what you have to do http://www.wprecipes.com/wordpress-hack-automatically-insert-author-bio-on-each-post
Another (much easier) solution is to use some plugin (like this one http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/post-author/ or http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-about-author/ )
How do I get the featured image to not show up twice? (For instance this post: http://www.ministrytips.com/social-media-facts-and-statistics-for-2012/
I don’t see it twice on that page.
There’s no reason why it would show twice, unless you define the same image into Extra ones…
I got i fixed after leaving this question. There just was no way to delete the question. Thanks!
I really like the theme! However, I would like to find a way to take my site name and tag line and replace that with where the logo would go (in the top left area.)
Also I would like to take off the big line that goes between the menu and the content area that is like a large breadcrumb (if that makes sense. ) Thanks.
Hi,
to remove logo and insert site name and tagline, open header.php and replace the inner content of DIV with id=”logo” with
<?php
echo get_option('blogname'). " - ";
echo get_option('blogdescription');
To hide the line below the menu, add this to Extra CSS in Brankic Panel
.content-wrapper {
border-top: none;
}
Thanks. but that isn’t the line I want to go away. If you view www.ministrytips.com I want that line of text that says “Ministry tips: blah,blah,blah” to go away. I want the navigation to set on top of the first post if that makes sense.
Thanks.
Ohh sorry,
to remove line of text from home page, add this
.home .section-title {display:none;}
And to add some padding add this
.home .content-wrapper {
padding-top:30px;
}
Hi! I’m having trouble with the shortcodes generator.
I posted just two comments above this comment now: I’ve noticed that lots of people are having trouble with their shortcode generator. I’ve read that you suggested updating the theme to v.1.7.7 and that you had fixed the problem. I updated the theme in fillezilla, like you suggested, and it’s still not working.
What do you suggest I do? My portfolio site is www.ksgd.ca
Hi,
try to clear the cache because (probably) old script is still cached…
Thank you! This worked like a charm.
I’m having problems controlling the height of slider images. Particularly images in portrait orientation. They all seem to be stretching to a predetermined height.
I’ve tried manually resizing the height of images with photoshop all the way down to 100 pixels. But they still stretch.
I’ve also tried selecting the the various sizes in the “set extra image” menus.
Are there any simple ways for me to adjust this?
Thank you in advance.
Slider images are always stretched to 100% wide. This is why your images must have same size. If you have only portrait oriented images, you should consider Twin slide option (below the editor).
