Hi This looks a great theme but I would really love a responsive version, any plans for that?
We plan to make some responsive themes in the future, probably one will be similar to Storm. But I can’t promise it will be any time soon.
You can follow us for updates.

Dear TC, I need to know a couple of things:
1 – Is it safe to update Wordpress to the release version 3.5.1 or the theme will brake? At the moment I’m using the version 3.5.
2 – I don’t understand how the links in the gallery work, example: If you go to the gallery page and click on the miniature of “Bollar” image, it will be opened in the full screen viewer, as expected. But, in the gallery page, if you click on the image title, and not on the miniature of it, it seems that it will open the page of the category that image belongs to. Even if that page has the name of that photo (in this case “bollard”). And, oddly, in the lower part of that page, there are the “previous” and “next” links to other images that belongs to other categories.
Is it possible to change this behavior? Clicking on the image title, I’d like to go on that image’s page, which should contain the image preview as well as a text content (for example EXIF data or a link to an in-depth explanation in the “photoblog” section).
Surely I did a mistake, but I don’t know where…
Thank you in advance for your support 
1. Yes it is safe to update to 3.5.1
2. To be honest I’m not sure what is happening here. The title should link to the individual page for the portfolio item. I can take a look at the setup in WP to figure it out, could you please send over administrator login details to the contact form on my profile page.

Hey TC, on the live preview of the theme the Columns shortcode have nice formatting, however when I do the same thing on my site there is no border, background, just empty space with whatever content I put in there. Is that by design? How can I get mine to look like those on the demo? Thanks!
http://demos.themecatcher.net/storm-wordpress/shortcodes/columnsHi,
Yes, it’s meant to be like that. All I have done on the page is used the Boxes shortcode within the Columns shortcode. The boxes are the Basic box option. Try it out.

Got it! That makes sense. Took me a little time to get it the way I wanted but works great. Thanks again.
In addition to my last request, the form builder doesn’t seem to want to let me insert a form into a page. I can create the form without any issues and I can see the form in the drop-down list when clicking the “add form” button, but when I click insert, nothing happens.
Any ideas?
It’s most likely a conflict with another plugin, I haven’t been able to replicate the problem in order to fix it. You can get the shortcode you need by editing the form and clicking “Add to Website” at the top.
I can investigate the problem further, if you don’t mind, if you can send admin login details and the admin URL to the contact form on my profile page.
Could you also tell me what browser and browser version this happens in?
Regards, TC
I’ll get you the login details shortly.
The only plugin I’ve installed is the one recommended in the documentation – the one for the forms.
I’m using Chrome and Firefox.
I’ve gone ahead and given this theme a 5 star rating, purely because the technical questions have been responded to so professionally and efficiently 
Hi there – great theme! It’s very informative. However, I do have one question. Is there a shortcode or a string of HTML that will allow us to place text around an image? The shortcode for the image frame simply pushes the text underneath it, which isn’t what I want to do.
Hi,
I’ve made two new classes forimg-left and img-right. Add this CSS to Theme Options – Advanced – Cutstom CSS:
.img-left {margin:5px 15px 5px 0; float: left;}
.img-left img {float: left;}]
.img-right {margin:5px 0 5px 15px; float: right;}
.img-right img {float: right;}
Instead of using the shortcode can you now add the image in text mode manually. Like this:
<div class="image-frame style3 img-left"> <img alt="Image" src="http://0.envato-static.com/images/themeforest/logo-dark.png?1343103954" /> </div>
Change the image link to your own. You can also change the style class to style-1, style-2, or 3. And make sure it is within the p of the text.
Sorry it’s long winded. We will make this easier for a later update.
Regards, Allan
Great! I’ll give it a try.
Hi,
Everything seems to be working fine for me and the theme is just supper! The documentation is rich and it is quick straight forward to do things.
I have one question and one suggestion.
I have a page called “Blog” that is linked to a menu. This page, i have the code code to present a blog with two columns, 4 posts (the one from demo website). The problem is, all my posts they are like single ones, not like the demo. Anything am I doing wrong?
Suggestion: would be possible to get the background images (or groups) from library? that would save a lot of time and reloads 
thanks
Do you have this “Blog” page set as the “Posts page” in Settings -> Reading on the WordPress menu? If so, it will display the blog in one column and ignore any content/shortcodes you have in the content for it, if you set no page for the “Posts page” it should work. If not, can you post a link to the page?
It’s not possible to get the background images from the media library as they are separate systems. We will consider adding the possibility in a future version, thanks for the suggestion.
Regards, TC
Thanks Theme, that solved the issue. Another question though, on the top of the actual post I can see a facebook like option. As soon as the page load, the google+ is also displayed, but doesn’t stay there, only the facebook. Is there anyway to add google, pinterest etc over there or to remove them all?
Actually, i just noticed that on my pc I can only see the facebook icon, my wife’s pc comes up with facebook and google+, although pinterest just shows up and then disappear… weird!
And just to finish off my round of questions, in the blog, there is a option to Sign Up. I do receive an e-mail, I can see the entry in the quform entries, but what is that for? I mean, will the registered person receive an e-mail with new posts or what? Thanks
Can you post a link to the page, so I can see the share problems?
The sign up form doesn’t actually subscribe them to anything, it is just an example form. You can integrate the form with email marketing software such as MailChimp, see the Quform integration guides. You could link it to a WordPress newsletter plugin to build up a mailing list, we don’t have a guide for this currently.
Regards, TC
Thanks Theme. Please go to byviniphotography.com and click the first blog entry. It seems to me that the icons are one on top of the other, not sure. Also, thanks for the explanation with the sign up. Very helpful.
function mytheme_fix_shares()
{
global $MR_Social_Sharing_Toolkit;
if (isset($MR_Social_Sharing_Toolkit)) {
remove_filter('the_content', array($MR_Social_Sharing_Toolkit, 'share'), 10);
add_filter('the_content', array($MR_Social_Sharing_Toolkit, 'share'), 100);
}
}
add_action('init', 'mytheme_fix_shares');

It worked. Thanks for your fantastic help. Very professional, helpful and clear documentation. Thumbs up! 
I you can please help me ASAP – million thanks!
Storm template, sortable portfolio buttons: I cannot translate the “All” button text. I can’t find in the translation menu on the admin panel. Can you tell me how can I translate or change somewhere please? Thanks.
$output .= '<a class="basic-button" href="#" data-filter="all"><span>' . __('All', TCR_TEXT_DOMAIN) . '</span></a>';
Regards, TC
Hi, the theme is great.
I’d just like to add a small detail, but even though I’ve tried have not known how.
If for example you go here: http://demos.themecatcher.net/storm-wordpress/portfolio/full-screen-2-columns
There are shown various items, for example, Sunrise, Waterbending, From the Banca, etc. Above them are the filters: All, Buildings, Landscapes, etc..
What I would like is that below the title of each item, display the name of their category.
For example, under the title “Sunrise” display “Landscapes”.
In other words: that below the title of each item in the portfolio, is put as a label, the name of the category (or categories) to which it belongs.
Is it possible?Thank you!
$show_description = tcr_get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), 'show_description', $show_description);Above it, add this code:
$output .= get_the_term_list(get_the_ID(), 'portfolio_category', '<h5>', ',', '</h5>');Regards, TC
Thank you! It works perfect!
Wonderful theme and tons of useful options! Really love it.
Finished working on the site some days ago. Please, throw an eye at www.phoclab.com if you want 
QUESTION: Is it possible to install the “Better WP Security” plugin with this theme without issues? I don’t want to destroy my site just for adding a plugin. Thank you 
Excellent site & photographs 
I haven’t heard of any conflicts with that plugin, so I would say it’s fine. It’s never going to destroy the site, just deactivate the plugin if you notice any issues.
Regards, TC
Thanks a lot for this great theme! I have only one problem, how could I change the tansparency of “Left Note Block”? Best regards!
Hi, you can add the following CSS into Theme Options – Advanced – Custom CSS.
.left-note-block, .right-note-block {
background-image: url("http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/storm/images/backgrounds/transparent/plain-dark-30.png")
}
You can change the image name in multiples of 10. 10 (plain-dark-10.png) being the most transparent and 90 (plain-dark-90.png) being the least.
Regards, TC
1) Does the ‘Welcome’ box on the front page resize to new content ? I’d want more text on the front page 2) Is there a limit to the size of files that can be uploaded via QuForm or is it just the PHP upload limit ? 3) Can I remove the name of the image that is shown at the bottom of the screen as the image changes ?
1. Yes.
2. You can optionally define a limit in the form settings, otherwise the PHP settings control the upper limits.
3. Yes, these captions are not there by default, you have to add them in the image settings.
Regards, TC
Thanks for the great theme – I’m really liking working with it, but there is one thing I can’t seem to figure out – How do I change the color of the navigation links and hover state? I tried changing it in the CSS, but that didn’t seem to have an impact.
ul.primary-menu li a, .primary-menu ul li a, .primary-menu ul li a ul a, .primary-menu ul li span, .primary-menu ul li a ul span {
color: #123456;
}
ul.primary-menu li a:hover, .primary-menu ul li a:hover, .primary-menu ul li a ul a:hover, .primary-menu ul li span:hover, .primary-menu ul li a ul span:hover {
color: #654321;
}Regards, TC

Hello, I really like your creation of STORM and have had much of its elements running for several months. Now I’m trying to get a blog started and don’t seem to be able to put the various parts together that I can follow using a printed copy of the support book supplied with software. Any assistance would be much appreciated. Paul (www.consciousnesstransitions.com)
Hi, could you please send me more details of what you are trying to achieve for your blog?
If you go to the Theme Options – Blog, you will see some options to create the blog pages the way you require.
There is also a blog shortcode so you can add a blog posts into pages. It has many options available too.
Regards, TC
Hi ThemeCatcher, In response to your reply about creating a working blog, I started with a page (Impressions-A Blog About Life) with one post on my website (www.consciousnesstransitions.com. I did go to the Theme Options – Blog and set the options as well as use the blog shortcode previously but nothing happened. So I believe I’m seeing the elements but not understanding how to make them work. My goal is to come out with a simpler version of what your posted in the Live Preview of the Storm Blog. Thank you, Paul
The blog is a built-in part of WordPress, when you add “Posts” in Posts -> Add New, they will become part of the blog system. What you can do is go to Settings -> Reading and at “Posts page:” set it to your blog page “Impressions-A Blog About Life”.
Now each time you add a new post they will appear in a list on that page.

Buongiorno, ho un problema con la visualizzazione delle foto. Dopo aver creato la galleria con FancyBox dal Portfolio e vado a vedere l’anteprima, cliccano nella foto per vederla lo schermo diventa nero e non vedo la foto..!!! perchè?? Vedi esempio http://showluxphoto.it/prova/ Grazie per l’aiuto. Andrea
There is a JavaScript error on the page in the Galleria code, this is not part of our theme.
SyntaxError: syntax error fullscreen_galleria_postid=;
Regards, TC
Quindi come lo risolvo??
There are 2 reasons I can’t help you with this:
1. You have not purchased the theme.
2. The code with the problem is not part of the theme.
Certo che l’ho acquistato il tema…!!
Not on that account. You can get support from the author of the plugin that is broken here: http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/fullscreen-galleria

Great theme and theme options. Thanks. Almost done:
http://www.fitfightertraining.comOne little bug. On the iPad, the footer bar on the home page is in the middle of the screen. That page is using the No Content template. Works fine on desktop computers.
Any ideas?
THANKS! Sharon
if (apply_atomic('footer_position', $tcr['options']['footer_position']) == 'absolute' || $tcr['browser']['is_tablet_or_mobile']) {
And remove this part from the line
|| $tcr['browser']['is_tablet_or_mobile']Regards, TC
Worked. Perfect. THANKS!
