Hi, I will buy this theme today, as long as I have your promise that you will update the HTML version after the WordPress version is released. Please keep up with the updates, this is my favorite theme on tf and I’ve bough many. :)

Sure, I’ll keep the HTML version always up to date with new features and fixes, also, if you have any suggestions or ideas please let me know. :)

Hi I am a new WP user and it is completely my fault, I downloaded the theme thinking it was ok for WP but obviously it’s not. Is there any way I would be able to exchange or download the wordpress theme for this template? If I have to re purchase I understand but I would be happy with an exchange or something if that can be arranged.

Thank you – Risa

Hi, the WP version of this template is currently being developed, when it’s done wouldn’t be a problem for me to exchange the HTML version with the WP version with you, but I think ThemeForest terms and conditions doesn’t allow us to do that. Thank you!

Hi, is there a date that the wp theme will be released? I will purchase the wp theme immediately after release. :)

Hi, I’m working hard to make the WP version perfect (same way as the HTML version :) ) but unfortunatelly I can’t say for sure the release date, I’d say it’s about 70% done and I’ll be submitting for the reviewers soon.

Do you know when the WordPress will be ready? I see you said 15 days, 17 days ago… I will be purchasing that when its ready. But just wanted to make sure you are still developing it?

Hello, this is absolutely great work. Thanks! I’m wondering if you will provide any documentation on how to use the blog feature. Do we need to integrate into a third party blogging system? For example, how can we setup the comment system so comments display on a blog post, and how can set it up so that the count of the number of comments automatically updates, etc.

Hi, thanks for your words, I’m glad you like it. Regarding your question, a HTML template is the “base” to be used with a Content Management System (or a blog system), such as Wordpress, but you need to be able to integrate the template with the server-side code. The template comes only with the HTML/CSS for the Blog. If you know a little bit about Wordpress it will be very easy for you.

Thanks, I’m pretty familiar with HTML/CSS/PHP code, but have never implemented a blog on my websites. If this template is complatible with WordPress, I’ll be able to figure it out. Thanks again.

Congratulations on the big sale :) Great theme btw.

Do you have a wordpress on the drawing board?

Thanks, yes, I’m working on the WP version, and it will be available soon.

Very nice Crivos!

It seems your forum is down? Only temporarly I hope?

Cheers!

Happy buyer and user of your theme.

Hi, yes, sorry, server is temporarly down and will be back in a few. Thanks!

Ok, thanks for the fast reply!

Our website is now back live, thanks!

Amazingly easy to work with and the shortcodes are awesome! Thanks for such a great theme!

Nice job on the template. Considering a purchase but Iwish it had script built in to automatically rotate testimonials. I see you have testimonials demonstrated but they are static unless manually advanced by the user. :(

Hello, you can configure the testimonials slider to auto rotate, as you can see in the “Latest Blog Posts”, both use the same script but are configurated in different ways. :)

Thank you for the response. I have private messaged you a question before purchasing. Thanks in advance.

Error: No xml file found…I cannot install the template via backend. I have look up the folder and cannot find the xml-file. Could you please help me with this?

thanks and kind regards,

I have upload it to the templates folder of the joomla installation, but i cannot see it in the list of templates…how can i make it my default template

i upload the whole folder to a new folder in /templates and try to “install” it with the “Discover” function in the backend. i get 500 internal server error which shows: Call to a member function attributes() on a non-object in ../libraries/joomla/installer/adapters/template.php on line 82 this looks like he searchs for the xml manifest…have you an other idea? please help…

Hello, I’m not a Joomla developer so I’m not sure exaclty what needs to be done to make HTML files to work as a joomla theme, but I think it’s not that easy as adding the files in the templates folder, you’re going to need to convert the files to PHP and making it the way Joomla recognises as a template, same way some people do with Porto template to convert to a Wordpress theme. A HTML5 Template is actually the base to create a template to be used in a CMS, but it only has HTML/CSS/JS files. Thanks. :)

Awesome, awesome theme!! I would have paid more than $14. You should think of increasing price. Great job!

Hi, thanks a lot! I’m glad you like it. Yes, I think it worth more than $14 too :D , but all files are priced by Envato and its staff.

Many thanks for your quick response.

Hi Crivos

I just bought your template as it looks quite good. I am new to website development and HTML5. I thought that I was to get some basic documentation (help notes) on what to do next. I have already got a webhosting packages. Is there any where on the internet where I could get some help please. I just dont know where to start and what to upload on my webhosting. Many thanks

Hello, since the template is a basic HTML5 template it doesn’t require any installation, you can do everything by editing the files and making the website look the way you want, once you’re finished with that you need to upload to your host provider server via FTP. The template comes with the documentation on how to use the files, how to configure the plugins, etc… but I know it’s not that simple if you’re starting with web development now. To start, please take a look at our FAQ’s section: http://www.crivos.com/forums/forum/template-porto/faqs/ – I can assist you with any doubt you have, please post your questions in the forum or send me an e-mail. Thanks.

Olá, comprei o template mas gostaria de saber onde consigo as imagens que utilizou nos banners rotativos para editar os textos, você pode enviar isso ou passar o custo do PSD a parte? Obrigado e parabéns pelo excelente trabalho!

Olá, todas as imagens que são de conteúdo e não estão incluídas no pacote eu comprei por $1 cada no site: http://photodune.net/search?utf8=%E2%9C%93&order_by=sales&term=black+board – de uma olhada nessa pesquisa, tem varias fotos do mesmo estilo. Obrigado!

Obrigado! abs!

Hi Crivos,

you did a great job!! Thanks a lot!

One issue:

On the index.html (also portfolio-n-columns.html and portfolio-single-project.html) the pictures in e.g. OUR WORK circle are displayed 90degrees clockwise rotated on iPad and iPhone. But on this Live Preview at themeforest they are displayed correctly. The size of your img at our work circle is 338px x 338px … My img size is 800px x 800px But i dont think that will be the reason fpr that issue…

Regards Mike

Hi, I was trying to see the issue here, so I used the default zip file and changed some images (800×800) and looks like it’s not happening here on Ipad and Iphone4, please take a look at this link: http://crivos.com/theme/porto-test/ – is the issue happening for you on that URL too? If no, please send me an email with your website URL to me to take a look and see what is going on. Thanks!

Open the images in Photoshop, rotate it, save it, upload it! Thanks that works!

The zip file is not even loading, it says We’re working furiously to fix this problem. Something’s not going right with this, I just paid for it please help.

o lol woops

Is there any refunds? I wont ever use this unless there’s a way to convert it to wordpress

I can’t see an option to refund (never did it before), you might have to contact ThemeForest for it and say the reason that you want to be refunded.

Hi man, i like your theme!

I have deleted “style switcher” and made a css file called “blue.css” but when i did all this nothing happens.

Take a look at my page www.tarikplakalo.com/dev2 look at source file and you can see i did everything right,

Hello, take a look at this screenshot of your website source code: http://my.jetscreenshot.com/6869/20130402-je9e-51kb.jpg

:)

Thanks :)

Hi Crivos,

Got your update on newsletter. Followed the instructions on setting up the Mailchimp a/c and key. Newsletter is working well too.

But issue is the Newsletter error and success is showing in a fresh page, not on the same area of newsletter form.

What wrong steps I am doing or following? Can you please guide me?

thanks and regards

Hi, looks like you need to copy the newsletter function from the new theme.js file, that function will validate the form and make the ajax submit. Let me know if you have any questions.

Hi Crivos,

Thanks for the input. It worked.

regards

Hey!

First of all, I really like the template!

I have a question though, how do i get rid of the style switcher and still keep the blue color?

I tried deleting <script src="master/style-switcher/style.switcher.js"></script> and the style switcher disappeared, but everything that was blue turned gray…

Hey, here’s a post about the Skin: http://www.crivos.com/forums/topic/how-to-use-a-skin/ – Thanks!
