Hi, not yet. But I’m going to start working on converting the template into a WordPress theme soon.
Hi, is there a wordpress theme of this?
OUT OF OFFICE
I’ll be on holiday from 9th to 26th of August with no internet connection. I will certainly reply to all questions and comments received as soon as I come back from the trip.
Thank you for your patience.
Hi, real nice template. How do I set the testimonial carousel to autoplay?, can’t find where to enable it.
Thanks
Hi,
Thanks for the feedback!
You can set the testimonial carousel to “autoplay” (but without infinite loop) by adding the corresponding parameter when initiating the carousel:
- find “Testimonials Carousel” section in the custom.js;
- change the line #297 to the following:
var carousel = new Carousel($carousel, {animation: {duration: 300, step: 1}, visibleSlides: 1, behavior: {autoplay: 7000}});
where 7000 – interval in ms
This can be easily solved:
In the layout.css find the media query section “Screens with 768 pixels wide and higher” (line #2316), and adjust the “min-height” css property for #page-content element:
@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
...
.twelve.columns #page-content { min-height: 700px; }
}
Oops… now I see. This isn’t a Wordpress theme! The purchase was a mistake. Can I please have a refund? Cheers, Koen
Unfortunately, I can’t do it personally. If you want to get refund, please contact Envato Support – support.envato.com
Hi, I just bought this template. But how to install? I uploaded the tectonic folder to my themes folder. In my ‘Manage Themes’ page, I get the message: ‘Broken Themes’ and ‘stylesheet is missing’. What am I doing wrong? Cheers, Koen
Hi Koen,
Tectonic is not a WordPress theme, it is an HTML5 template. The WP themes can be found in the WordPress section.

Yes, I noticed that. Can I have a refund please?
Hello,
Unfortunately the twitter feed (API 1.1) does not work, even in the demo.
Regards, Frans
Hello Frans,
Thanks for purchasing my template.
Do you mean the twitter feed (API 1.1) doesn’t work in my online demo? (http://e-merald.com/themes/tectonic/ )
Since yesterday evening, when I updated the demo files, the twitter feed works correct online – I tested it on my desktop, iPad, iPhone, Android smartphone many times.
Please check it ones more, try to clear your browser cache…
Regards, emerald
Hi Emerald,
YW!
Thanks for your quick reply.
It was a browser cache problem. Solved 
Regards, Frans
Hi emerald,
Thank you for your previous reply. I have another issue i’d like to ask you about. The twitter feed doesn’t seem to be working, kindly let me know if you have a fix for this.
Thanks
Hi Armadals,
The twitter feed stopped working yesterday due to the deprecation of the Twitter v1 API and fully transitioning to API v1.1 (https://dev.twitter.com/blog/api-v1-is-retired ).
I will sure let you know and provide with the solution as soon as find out how to do it. Then I will also upload the update for the template.
Thanks
Thanks emerald
Hi Armadals,
The updated version with Twitter Feed API 1.1 support is approved and can be downloaded from your “Downloads” page on ThemeForest.net.
Hi Emerald, Could you please tell me which files to update. I tried updating jquery.tweet.js and jquery.tweet.min.js. and it still not working.
I downloaded the demo files and ran it, but it still says “loading tweets…”
Hi Armadals,
Update these files (replace with the new version):1) js/jquery.tweet.js 2) js/jquery.tweet.min.jsAdd new PHP files and the empty ‘cache’ folder:
1) php/twitter/index.php 2) php/twitter/lib/tmhOAuth.php 3) php/twitter/lib/tmhUtilities.php 4) php/twitter/cache/
Follow “JavaScript Plugins & Scripts” -> “Twitter Feed” section in the documentation to set up the Twitter API v1.1 authentication and Twitter Feed plugin.
Please let me know if you succeeded or not.
It works! the only instruction I didn’t understand was:
NOTE: Remember to set the permissions of the “php/twitter/cache” folder to 755 so that the Twitter Feed cache files can be saved, otherwise your Twitter Feeds won’t work.
otherwise the the feed is working now! 
I tried testing the twitter feed by tweeting “testing” and the only tweets I see on the webpage are previous tweets.
This plugin allows you to cache tweets and set the cache interval if the Twitter OAuth request limit (180 feed requests per 15 minute window, per access token) is an issue. Also caching a Twitter feed allows tweets to load much faster as your making a request to a local text file and do not need to wait for Twitter to authenticate your request and generate tweets.
Anyway, if you need you can disable caching option or set another cache interval in php/twitter/index.php.
P.S. Files/folders with permissions set to 755 are readable and executable by everyone, but only writeable by the file/folder owner.
How come the template doesnt function normaly in Internet Explorer? Firefox and chrome it works fine. The main navigation is messed up in internet explorer.
Very nice template!
Keep up the good work.
Regards, Keno
Thank you, Keno.
I didn’t experience any problems with the templates’s main navigation while testing it’s functionality in IE7-IE9. Which version of Internet Explorer and what computer/device do you use? Can you explain what exactly happens with the menu? Does the main navigation in live preview work properly for you or not?
www.nedlumo.com the newest internet explorer. You can see it for yourself
You’ve got syntax errors in your HTML code (unnecessary closing tags in the Header Navigation section…). Fix them, and the template will work fine.
Hi Emerald.
Great template. Just having one issue.
When I’m submitting a form, the post ignores required field.
Kindly let me know the solution
Hi Armadals,
Thanks for the purchase.
Does the demo page (http://e-merald.com/themes/tectonic/single-post.html ) work correct for you? What browser and computer/device do you use?
Hi Emerald, I managed to solve the problem. I do have another question for you. One of the features on your site is the use of Toggle where you can open or close a section of the page. I want to know if there is an option where you can click on a single button on top of the page to expand all the toggle sections of the page and a minimize button to close all the toggle sections of the page?
Thanks
Hi Armadals,
You can add this option by customizing the code:
1) Add “expand all” and “collapse all” buttons or links like this, for example:
<a href="#" id="expand_all" class="button offset-right-20px">expand all</a> <a href="#" id="collapse_all" class="button">collapse all</a> <div class="clear margin-bottom-30px"></div>
2) Find the Toggle section in the custom.js (line #329) and insert the following code inside the function:
$('#expand_all').click(function() {
$trigger.addClass('active');
if ($trigger.next().is(':hidden')) {
$trigger.next().slideDown(300);
}
return false;
});
$('#collapse_all').click(function() {
$trigger.removeClass('active');
if ($trigger.next().not(':hidden')) {
$trigger.next().slideUp(300);
}
return false;
});
Thanks for the code, Emerald.
Good morning,
I purchased this template – I spent hours searching the web and when I found this one – it was love at first site. 
I want to change the colour them from the orange to my business logo colour on all the headers and the infoboard but having trouble where to find it in the code or which CSS style related to it.
I look forward to your feedback.
Dannie
Hello Dannie,
Thanks for your purchase! 
There are 12 predefined color schemes available for this template and the default one is brown. The information on how to change the color scheme can be found in the “CCS Files” section of the Documentation.
If you want to build your custom color style, you can do it either by adding a new CSS file in the “css/color” folder, or by changing the existing color scheme.
Let’s say, you chose the first way and want to add a new color scheme, for example “olive”. Do the following:
1) Open color-scheme-template.psd in Adobe Photoshop. Using the included template for default brown color scheme as the sample and your business logo color as the “main color” – find the rest 4 colors for your new olive color scheme (“dark color”, “light background color”, “dark background color” and “border color”).
2) Open the “images/icons/colored” folder, copy the “brown” folder with all PNG-icons inside, and name the new folder “olive”. In the new folder open dashed-line-horizontal.png and divider-pattern.png in Photoshop and change their color to the “border color” of the olive color scheme. Open link-arrow-long.png and link-arrow-small.png and change their color to the “main color” (top icon) and “dark color” (bottom icon) of the olive color scheme. Open the rest 5 “link marker” PNG files and change their color to the “main color” of the olive color scheme.
3) Open the “css/colors” folder, copy the brown.css file and name the new file “olive.css”.
4) Open the olive.css and replace all hex/rgb colors with the new ones from the olive color scheme. Also change “brown” to “olive” in the icons paths.
5) In each HTML file change “css/colors/brown.css” to “css/colors/olive.css” (line #21).
Hey, I purchased the template. It’s nice work, but the prettyPhoto jQuery plugin doesn’t work, as in the demo, too. I think it isn’t configured in custom.js, right? :/
Hi microhome,
Thanks for the purchase!
The prettyPhoto is already configured in the jquery.prettyPhoto.min.js (for more details, also see “JavaScript Plugins & Scripts -> PrettyPhoto” in the documentation).
What browser and computer/device do you use? What happens after you click on a preview image?
Hello, I’m very interested in your theme, but I have a few questions first. The site I’m designing for can have no javascript on the site for security purposes. If I were to gut this template of the javascript completely, would it still function properly or would it be a headache for me to reconfigure afterwards. It seems to respond fairly well when I disable javascript on my browser, but sometimes sites can act funny when you start taking things out.
Very interested in purchasing. Thanks!
Hello William,
Thank you for your interest in my template!
This template can work in “emergency mode” without JavaScript – the layout looks correct, the navigation works properly (menu is not responsive), most of static content is displayed, and you even are able to send messages via the form… but all JavaScript plugins (such as slider, lightbox, Tweeter feed, Flickr Photostream, Google Maps, portfolio filtering) are disabled, videos are not displayed, tabs/accordion/toggle display all panes instead of active only… So the template can work without JavaScript but its functionality in this case will be restricted.
I’m tring to use this tempate with our cuvette’s website http://www.bsdlab.com ; It has many elements. But there is no breadcrumbs. Can you change line 146 to breadcrumbs? thanks.
Send me a private message via the form on my profile page and I will send a solution to your email address.
Great support. 5 star.
Thank you!
Really nice looking template, bookmarked!
Thank you!
Hi, I have now purchased this template. Please can you help, I want to change the Twitter and Flickr feeds. Where in the code will I need to make the changes? Thank you
Hi davenmick,
Thank you for purchase.
You can change the Twitter feed settings inside the jquery.tweet.min.js file (at the bottom of the code), the settings for Flickr – inside HTML file containing Flickr widget (“flickr-widget” class).
For details, please see the documentation (HTML Files and Structure -> Widgets and Elements).
Many thanks for the advice & the quick reply
It seams very good,I want to use it with our website. But can you add a shop page? other popular template also have shop page. thanks.
Thanks, cuvette. I will consider about that, and maybe add a shop page in one of future updates (but not very soon).
