How are you looking for woocommerce 2.0?

any xing updates planned?

Mark

Hello Mark,

Thanks for the kind words and feedback.

WooCommerce 2.0 is still in beta stage. So far, the known compatibility issue with the theme is that the class name prefix were changed from .woocommerce_ to .woocommerce- (i.e. underscore is changed to hyphen). That will be fixed by a quick search and replace inside woocommerce/woocommerce-custom.css file.

Besides that, minor CSS changes (like, one for pagination on product pages) will be required. For that, I will place an update as soon as the plugin version is released. There are still known issues with the plugin which are in progress of clearing. :)

is it possible to use the theme as a catalog? Without shoppong cart, add to cart button and all that stuff?

Thanks in advance

Hello migue26222,

Yes it is possible to use the theme as catalog. The shopping related features are available only when you have installed WooCommerce plugin. If that plugin is disabled, the theme won’t show any section related to e-commerce. In that case, you can show product items by creating standard posts and display them using built in portfolio and blog templates.

Hello, i create blog page: http://anvelopeauto.biz/blog , set template blog list like on http://themeforest.net/item/xing-business-ecommerce-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/2953363 and message: Apologies, but the page you requested could not be found. Perhaps searching will help. I deleted page :”Blog” and i can’t create another page it appears “blog-2” or “blog-3” like it allready exist.

Hello webrom12,

While creating a blog page with template, it is required to provide category IDs inside the page options panel. If the numeric category IDs are not provided, there will be no posts to show, and it will display as “Not found”.

Deleting and re-creating new page will append URL names as blog-2, blog-3, etc. That can be changed by editing the page URL that appears just below the page title inside editor. I hope that will help. :)

Hello saurabh, Can you tell me where I can find the css code to change the font type and style of the main menu? I find the type to bold and it is displaying my WPML selector wrong. url: http://airkayakshop.com

Hello eyes2you,

Navigation font weight is set inside style.css file, around line no. 209:

.nav1 > li a { ... font-weight: bold; }

You can change it to normal, or remove the font-weight property.

Hi, Every photos im adding for the products they are looking low resolution…

I even tried with photos from you demo.

I tried a few size,,,no result..

Anyway to fix this or to contact you, i must finish my site today!

Thx!

Hello Fremen,

Product image sizes can be configured inside WooCommerce > Settings > Catalog > Image Options. Here, make sure you have the following settings:

Catalog Images: width [240] Height [999]
Single Product Image: width [370] Height [999]
Product Thumbnails: width [90] Height [999]

After making these changes, save settings and regenerate thumbnails so that the new sizes can be generated.

If this doesn’t work, you can send me a mail at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com.

Hi there, The secondary columns are not showing up when a product category is selected. How can i fix this?

Hello enzearth,

Kindly send me the site URL along with the actual product category link. I will check the source code.

Regards

Hi All category urls dont show the secondary columns.

Example site link

http://productsnewzealand.co.nz/product-category/on-sale/

Hello enzearth,

Kindly send me your WP login at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com. I think there could be a small setting which is missing. I will fix it.

Regards

hi again. i manage to do all the things from documentation and dummy data but something’s wrong in my account page, registration form is missing. http://s17.postimage.org/6hhuoo07z/imagine.jpg

Hello webrom12,

Registration can be enabled inside WooCommerce > Settings > General > Checkout and accounts > Registration. Here, enable the registration options for checkout and my account page. Finally, save settings.

I have a question…

We’re setting up our site using WooCommerce and your theme and I’ve hit a bit of a snag that I’m not sure if it’s related to the theme or WooCommerce itself.

When we go to the checkout page itself, it briefly shows the lock in the URL bar as if SSL is activating but then turns off. My experience in the past has been this happens usually from mixed content causing the SSL to break. Is there something that can be fixed in the theme to address this problem? It seems to be the only place that SSL behaves this way (it works fine on our other sites and in the Wordpress control panel). Thank you.

Hello flashions,

This may happen if the “Force secure checkout” option is enabled inside WooCommerce > Settings > General > Checkout and accounts > Security. This option doesn’t work well on checkout page. You can try by disabling this option, and also try by switching the theme to twentytwelve for a while. This is related to server settings and secure checkout option of plugin. :)

hi, i uploaded xing on my website and i don’t see woocommerce, products on wp-admin. Why this problem ? sorry for my bad english. http://s11.postimage.org/rz7zq14tv/image1.jpg http://s18.postimage.org/tvtlml6c9/image2.jpg

done that. thanks. one more question: now on my index appears blog posts and shop items are on : domain.com/shop. I want shop items on main page like in the xing demo and blog posts on domain.com/blog. How i do that?

Hello webrom12,

Front page can be set inside Settings > Reading > Front Page Displays > A Static Page. Here, set front page to “Home” and posts page to none.

This “Home” page shall be created using a new page. Inside this page, you can place the slider short code, recent products, and featured products as shown on live demo. You can find the dummy content for this page inside your_download_zip/dummy_data/home.txt file.

You can find more details on starting setup and theme configuration inside your_download_zip/documentation/index.html file. I hope you will find it helpful. :)

Regards

thank you very much ! great work.

Hi,

I would like to know if this top menu is originally with the theme and how affiliate and coupons system works.

Thanks, Kris

Hello Kris,

Thanks for browsing the theme. The top menu comes with theme, and can be made hidden via theme options panel.

The “Coupon and affiliates” link is just a dummy text to show you can place any custom callout text in that place. That could be an offer link, a contact link, or any other useful information. Please do not get confused with actual affiliate links. :)

Regards

Actually I like that concept. I would like to have option for affiliates and coupons for customers. What I have to do to make it work ??

Also I would like to have more text in listing. What I need: Pictures of products to be smaller and I would like to have some text around it.. At least 4-5 words. I would like to use your theme to sell digital products and SEO services. So I need at least small description.

Please advice.

Kris.

Hello Kris,

The theme uses WooCommerce Plugin for shopping related features. So any such feature that the plugin provides, will be supported by the theme. For example, you can manage coupons and also sell Digital/Downloadable products.

The products page shows a product thumbnail and product title by default. In order to show small description, it may require to modify core files, or override plugins core feature using some code. (Unfortunately, I would not be able for customization). :)

Regards

Hi there. Just one question. Is this theme compatible with the plugin “Product Bundles”, developed for WooCommerce by SomewhereWarm? If it’s not, is it possible to create bundle products in any different way?

Hellomagnetcomunicacion,

Thanks for browsing the theme. Yes it is compatible with the plugin you have mentioned. :)

Regards

Hi, great theme!

One tiny thing though, viewing on a mobile the nav bar floats to the left with responsive turned off? Is this a known issue?

Hello thebakerystore,

Thanks for the purchase and kind feedback.

Yes it is a known issue. A fix is to remove the following code at around line no. 18 inside header.php file:

<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width" />

This code should be disabled when we turn off responsive.css from theme options (which doesn’t happen right now). I will fix this in next update. My apologies for this inconvenience.

Regards

Hi,

How can I center the items in the navigation bar (nav1)? I cannot get this working. Please advise me on this.

The theme is great, by the way!

Thanks!

Hello inspirance,

Thanks for the purchase and kind feedback.

In order to make menu items center aligned, you can add these rules at the end of style.css file or user.css file:

.nav1 { text-align: center }
.nav1 li { float: none; display:inline-block; }
.nav1 ul { text-align: left }

Regards

Hi, one question? I want a red.css style… What do I have to change?? Do I have to chane only the colors on blue.css by the RGB red colors or something else? Thnak you…

Hello leopardix,

If using any custom color scheme file (like blue.css or cherry.css), color values can be changed inside this particular file. For example, if you are using blue color scheme, open xing/css/schemes/blue.css file and search for #113366. Change this value to hexadecimal red, say #cc0000 at all places where #113366 appears. This will trun the blue.css into red color scheme.

hello saurabh,

Iam using WordPress 3.3.2, why I can see custom templates page option on wp-admin Page Attributes?

Hello conradsharry,

I would recommend updating to the latest WprdPress version 3.5+ and latest theme version. You can also send me your WP login and URL at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com. I will check why the page templates option is not appearing.

On the Stay Connected Icons. I want to replace the Pinterest icon with one that pins photos instead of linking to a profile on Pinterest. How would I accomplish this? I am thinking I can do it in the social-links-widget.php

Hello findley75494,

Thanks for purchasing the theme.

The Pinterest sharing is available for single posts inside social sharing section. This has a different functionality as compared to the social icons (follow) widget. The ‘Sharing’ button actually looks for featured image associated with a post, and pins it on the site. This can only be used on single post with the built in feature (as provided). Or alternatively, you can copy the pinterest button sharing code and use inside a text widget in sidebar.

On that link, you will notice that the page URL and image URL needs to be dynamic. So a fixed URL may not work properly for entire site. That’s why we use it only on single posts.

Regards

Hello,

I purchased this template and love it. Very easy to work with and love the woocommerce integration.

I’m having trouble though with viewing the checkout button (sidebar) on IE8-10. Do you have any suggestions? My client wanted the button on the top header removed so it’s only in the sidebar and everything works on all the other browsers except IE. I hate IE personally but the client obviously needs this fixed.

Thanks in advance!

Hello eugenelee223,

The account / shopping bar is there in code. So it may appear in some browsers. This can be made hidden in two ways:

1. By adding this rule at the end of style.css file:

#account-bar { display: none; }

2. Or removing it from header.php file by commenting out line no. 47 and 48:

//if (class_exists( 'woocommerce' ))
 // get_template_part('woocommerce/account-bar');

Any of these methods will work for hiding the account bar.

Regards

Thanks. We figured that out. The problem was the incompatibility with IE8-10. Is there any way to check that? THANKS! :)

Hello Eugene,

Just replied to your mail. :)

Navigation Menu,

I had issue before with this. I want to change something in Primary Navigation Menu. When you copy this all into user.css the menu doesn’t show up anymore on mobile device. Very strange, you have to try so you can see for yourself.

Please give me solution because I have to change things in primary navigation and don’t want to change style.css

Hello scarface1899,

While copying entire menu CSS, these two rules also get copied:

.ss_nav select { display:none; width:100% }
.ss_nav_top select { display:none; width:100% }

Due to which, the drop down menus hide permanently. So make sure you do not copy these lines. Also, if you are including the widths again, they will not work for responsive layout. That’s so because user.css is loaded ‘after’ responsive.css.

In case when all the code is copied, it will be required to include appropriate responsive media queries at the end of user.css file too. For that, kindly send me a mail at xconsau[at]gmail[dot]com. I will send you a file with all rules included. You can edit it accordingly.

Hi…

I love this theme. However i have a problem with side bars. No matter what i do i cannot display a custom sidebar on the woo commerce shop pages. It always displays the default sidebar. I have tried reinstalling and it still works the same on a default install.

Cheers

Hello inspired_development,

Thanks for purchasing the theme.

Exclusive sidebars are only for pages and posts. The WooCommerce ‘shop’ is basically an archive. Exclusive sidebars doesn’t show on archive/category/search/author etc.

If you use the products short code on a custom page, you can enable exclusive sidebar on it. For example, create a new page with exclusive sidebar configuration and use a [recent_products] short code in it. This page will display all products, along with your custom sidebar.

In that case too, if you click on a product, the single product view will use default sidebar. (As the single product is neither a page nor post; it’s a custom post type product).

Regards

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. That helps a little, however i need to use Ajax layered navigation that only works on a defined woocommerce page. So as far as i can see i cannot use short codes for this.

Please advise as i have tried everything to force the sidebar to load.

Thanks

Hello inspired_development,

Since the Layered Nav widget works only on shop based archives, it can be used on Default Sidebar. By doing so, it will only appear on shop and product archives in default sidebar. Whereas on other pages of site (which use default sidebar), this widget will not appear. So you need not assign Exclusive sidebar here. Simply use the widget, and it will only appear on shop based pages. :)

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_FUNCTION in /home/.../public_html/wp-content/themes/.../includes/custom-tab1.php on line 1

When I tried posting that code that’s the error I was getting when trying to add a custom tab. Any ideas?

Hello mbnutra,

Can you send me the custom-tab1.php file. I’m not sure what are the contents of that file. But this error occurs when the code is using anonymous function (closure). Anonymous functions were introduced in php 5.3.0. So if your php version is below 5.3.0, this code may not work. I can tell further if I look at the code. May be there is just a syntax error. :)
