HI, I want to know about the gallery page: http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/masonry-magnific-popup/

will i get the same looking of the lightbox effect?

I saw some other sites’ lightbox are like this: http://adibenedetto.com/gallery/les-villes-du-monde/

Thanks!

Hi, yes you will get the same looking of the lightbox effect.

Another few questions:

1. There is no option for the Magnific Popup gallery as well as other gallery options advertised in your demo: http://themeforest.net/item/skylab-portfolio-photography-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/4740718

2. I’m trying to create Gallery dropdown menus as illustrated in your demo, but I’m finding this to be impossible.

3. The Item Details says there is an option to install Demo Data, but I’m having trouble getting this to work…

Any help you can offer would be wonderful. It looks like a great theme, but it’s not behaving as advertised.

Hi!

  1. I’m sorry but I don’t quite understand your question. Can you try restating it or adding some additional information?
  2. You need to use the WordPress Menu system http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide
  3. Use The WordPress Importer plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-importer/

Hello,

I was able to answer questions 2 and 3 myself. However, I’m still having difficulty with the Galleries. How does one create a Galleries List as illustrated in your demo?

Hi, please read the documentation that comes with the theme, any common questions can be answered within the documentation.

Anyone here really good with making this theme do what you want it to do??? Want to help me? I have not come across a theme so frustrating before!

Hi, please describe your problem.

interesting….my comment was removed….here is what I posted. My issues are already on several comments here. I am just asking if anyone using the theme has been totally successful and will to help with my issues.

I have sized my logo no wider than 158 px and it was too small. I make it slightly wider and tried two or three more times and still it appears too small. Seems to be ignoring my file width size. How do I get my logo to take up at least the width of the left side bar??? Yes, I have read the documentation!! and I have read all (ALL) the comments posted here from page 1 forward.

Yes there is more space to the left and right of the logo on the left bar…even on your demo it is very visible! the word SKYLAB will fit atleast three times across the left bar on your demo. I have no white space on my logo and I am sure your demo does not either.

The logo in the demo site is 63px width.

well then, there is a problem with how the theme is handling my 158px wide logo. you already have my login info!

I can’t seem to get the new galleries I’ve created show up in the left menu bar. I’ve read the documentation, but can’t seem to find a solution…

Hi, you need to use the WordPress Menu system http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Menu_User_Guide

Why does my blog post / journal still have a white background. I have the Cartographer background loaded and have inserted the CSS code for the Cartographer style also. Your sample page show a transparant background for this style. http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/journal/

Hi, please email us your URL, username and password for your site via our profile page and we will take a look.

you already have my log in info….BUT I will send it AGAIN!!!

When I went to check it, the mobile version of your filterable portfolio has 1 column instead of 2. Is there any way to change that?

Hi, yes you can change but not from theme options I am afraid.

I haven’t read through all the comments to find out if this issue has been addressed yet but did you know that the ‘Portfolio Visible Titles’ does not show any visible titles in Firefox, however it does in Chrome?

Hi, works fine for us in both browsers. Can you email us your URL?

I have made my images 1600 w x 1200 h as you said, but my images are still being cropped in the full width slider on the home page. HELP!!!! for example, the image with the tree and the guy….the guy’s feet show and the blue sky above the tree shows in the image before your theme attacks it. I cant have it being cropped.

If you dont check on this soon, the theme will be deactivated as I can not have it appearing this way until solved.

do you have align to center option set on your demo site for the full width slider?

well if you look at your images they are cropping also at different screen settings….try dragging the corner of your window to different sizes and you will see what I mean by cropping parts of the images…. I guess there is just no way to make the full image show on this theme with the full width slider unless someone can come up with the exact height/width of the images we need to upload.

Hi, In case you didn’t get my mail, can you please help I really can’t find the ”+” icon to get the short codes… I’m going crazy :) I must have missed something !! Thanks ! Marie

Hi, see the screenshot below.

How do I make the post that appear on my blog take up more room width wise. I dont have time to sit and read through all these comments to see if it has been asked before. (searchable comments would be wonderful!)

And how do I make my Gallery in my post on my blog appear BELOW the title of the blog.

I have read the documentation for both of these and do not see my answer.

Thanks!!

It’s possible to do but would likely need the help of a developer.

consider making the width an editable field (and many more fields) as most other themes have!

Sorry there aren’t any plans to make fields editable.

Hi there,

Would you mind adding another number version when you release an update? When I did the last update I was at 1.0 and now I am still at 1.0 … But the css modification I made in the “theme option -> Style” doesn’t work anymore… My background was black and now it is dark purple…

see on http://www.adibenedetto.com

Thank you,

A

Thank you for your help… I apologize but I don’t see any difference on my site http://www.adibenedetto.com

Thank you it worked :)

Rollover color doesnt work for portfolio grid, just stays black – any ideas?

Thanks

Hi, please visit your downloads tab and re-download the new version and re-install it. Sorry for any troubles.

Not an option – I have modified the files heavily now – rollover never worked from the start – how can i bypass the options and hard code a color into the rollover please?

In content-portfolio.php find

portfolio_hightlight_color

on line 18 and replace it with

portfolio_highlight_color
.

Hi, congrats on a great theme with excellent design!

Hi, thanks!

Great theme, using it for my site! I wanted to ask you which files I need to edit to translate where it says comment, share (under each post in the main blog page)... then which files to edit for single posts to translate all that is in the comments section. Thank you.

Hi, use Codestyling Localization plugin to translate the theme.

Hi, Do you know if this theme will support an ecommerce function or the woocommerce plugin?

Hi, it’s not something we test I’m afraid. WooCommerce does claim to work with any theme I believe but I could not guarantee it.

PRE-PURCHASE QUESTION:

I tried to read all posts to check if this has been asked but couldn’t find, apologies if it has though!

Can you stop expanding menus from folding back in? e.g. – can you change them to click (or rollover), foldout, then click the item again to fold back in?

Cheers!

Hi, sorry, what you have described isn’t available with the theme.

Hi there, I just wanted to say first off – this is an amazing theme and I’m really happy with it! I do have one quick question though:

Is there a way to limit the responsiveness of this theme? I really don’t like how it puts in the menu bar above the content when viewing it in a small browser window or a tablet or phone. I’d much rather the responsiveness was limited so that when viewed on a phone it just resized the whole window to fit it on the screen. Then users can zoom in as they wish. It seems a shame to have such a nice website if all of the pretty stuff is lost when it’s viewed on a phone. Is this possible to achieve?

Hi, sorry, what you have described isn’t available with the theme.

How do achieve Single project iOS slider in your demo?

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Please read the documentation that comes with the theme, any common questions can be answered within the documentation.

Why aren’t thumbnails resized?! Its loading full quality images for thumbnails and taking forever to load my page

http://www.lukestrothman.com/popular/

Hi, looks like you have uploaded your images and only then installed the theme. Regenerate your thumbnails with a help of “Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/.
