Hi,

1. I need to change the color of mobile menu icon. Currently it is a black icon on black background. I need to change the icon to something lighter like white.

2. How do I get the share icon to appear on single portfolio and blog posts? Currently it only appears in the blog archive under each post. I can not find a way for it to appear on all individual blog and portfolio posts.

3. I have changed the overall background to black. How can I change the font color that appears on the black background to a white or lighter color (porfolio & gallery posts) ?

Thanks!

Hi!

  1. Navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Style and add these lines of code to custom CSS block:
    #mega-menu-dropdown {
    color: #fff;
    }
    
  2. You will need to unstall AddThis plugin.
  3. Use styles from black.css. To install custom styles for your site navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Style and add styles from the “styles” folder to “Custom CSS” block. You can upload a background for your sidebar/site from the theme options panel. You can find all the backgrounds here http://subtlepatterns.com/

Hello, i ran into an issue with the “FancyBox Gallery” gallery type. When my browser window gets smaller than a certain size, it appears that the masonry grid breaks, and all of the images flow into one column. i have a screenshot if you’d like to see it. It specifically affects when i view the page from my iPhone when it;s horizontal.

you can see it here: www.nickcollura.com/dev/cruisers-yachts/

Also, how can i get the other masonry type galleries to fade in each image individually like the gallery type? like in: http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/masonry-magnific-popup/

So far i’ve fixed the issue of the FancyBox Gallery jumping from 3 columns to 1, with my iPhone in horizontal mode displaying one large column. Here’s the fix: In styles.css (in my case, my child theme stylesheet) add this:

@media only screen and (min-width: 380px) and (max-width: 770px) { /* fancyBox Gallery */ .single-gallery .fancybox-gallery-item, #block-fancybox-gallery .fancybox-gallery-item { width: 43%; } }

and in the js folder inside “jquery.gallery-fancybox.js” you’ll see near the end: case ‘small’ : masonryOpts = { columnWidth: $containerFancybox.width() / 3 }; break;

Just change the 3 to a 2 to alter the number of columns.

MegaTheme, I’d still like to know however, how to make the images fade in one by one, like in the Masonry-Magnific-Popup style. Thanks much!

Hi, great you have fixed the issue of the FancyBox Gallery on iPhone!

Unfortunately currently I don’t have a solution how to make the images fade in one by one, like in the Masonry-Magnific-Popup style. We would suggest to hire a developer to help you with this modification.

How do increase the Maximum upload file size when adding photos to gallery?

Hi, you will need to ask your hosting company to help you with your problem.

Hi, I am running localhost. Where can I increase the value size?

Sorry, I did never work on localhost.

Nevermind. :) It’s working now.

I can’t figure out the Retina Display logo for the website. I’m uploading with the @2x extension and resizing it in the theme, but it’s not showing up on my website. When I put in the regular logo, it shows up fine.

Hello, can someone help me? I want to have 1000memories website options on skylab. Like login for other family members. Allowing them to add themselves to the family ablums and upload thier own picutes. 1000memories does this, but I don’t want to use them. We have bought your theme just need a suitable option of making a new family member to:

+Add them self, maybe login and pw if needed. +upload photos +operate site on mobile as well. +basically as similar as possible to 1000memores without having to go totally custom, does nayone know any plugins that are really close to this? I already have someone building it out, just wanted to see if maybe you experts can give some tips, pointers, advice, anything….

Really appreciated!

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Unfortunately I don’t know any plugins that are close to whar you have described.

Where do you find the option to choose different portfolio styles, such as “single project classic”?

Thanks, Tim

Hi, navigate to Portfolios > Add New. Here you can choose different portfolio styles.

I have purchase this theme couple weeks back, when I was ready to launch I had an issue with the portfolio page that I could not figure it out. I wrote a ticket and within minutes I was getting a response back with the fix issue. I got to say that this was the best tech support I have gotten so far. You can tell that the developers are in top of his game, not only in what they do but as customer service as well. I will continue not only to purchase from themforest but from MegaTheme. beautiful and excellent work! Thanks for making me look good in the web.

Thanks! I appreciate the kind words!

Hi there,

I have an issue concerning the main menu navigation.

Subpages appear when hovering over their “parent” page in the main menu, but then when you click on a subpage and go visit it, the parent submenu folds back up and when you get back onto it later there is no way to know which pages you have already visited or not.

Is there a way to have the Main Menu Showing the Visited Links?

I would be so grateful if you could help with this – it is really important to me as my site has many subpages and it gets really confusing to navigate.

Thanks!!!

Thank you that worked great!!! And is there a way for the submenu – in which the page one is viewing is – to stay open while viewing?

also can I get the visited links to be crossed out? I tried {text-decoration: line-through;} but that didn’t work…

We would suggest to hire a developer to help you with this modification.

Hello, I can not find the video mix or the super smooth slider in the gallery option where are they?

Hello, you need to select Slider or fancyBox gallery types.

but where is the the ” super smooth slider”

I found it thanks

Hello, I made the front page with the template “full width of window slider”. It’s great. But this slider has gradation of left side.

Is there any way to remove this effect?

Hi, sorry it’s not something which is included as an option.

I download the theme and I cano not find the theme folder to install the theme

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

See skylab.zip in the main package or download Installable WordPress file not Main File(s).

I have a presale question.

On the gallery pages, can you disable clicking of the images that jump into the lightbox? E.g. have completely static images with no hover transition and hand cursor, and if you click on the image it does nothing?

Hi, I see the example, yes you can insert one big image, you can do that in any theme actually.

I don’t want to have one big image as that wont display nicely on a phone, I want individual images that simply don’t have the hover effect and clickability. Can that be done?

Yes that also can be done in any theme actually.

Hello, I have a gallery page (Gallery Type = Image Gallery) in which I need all the images to link up to pdfs (blank page link). This means I don’t need the pop up view of images, I just need them to be links. Would you know how I can do that? Many thanks!

Hello, it would be possible to do, but would require some modification by a developer.

Hello!

Is it possible to add the regular serch bar to look for tags? if so.. how is the result display?

Thanks!

Hello, yes you can add Search widget in the blog page http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/journal/

Hi,

Is there anyway to add multiple video files to a specific project?

Thanks, Tim

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

Is it something you would be able to provide a quote for?

Unfortunately we are not able for freelance work.

Two questions please. 1. You helped me set up a front page which is a grid of images (a front page which is a portfolio), each of which links to a page – thank you. Is it possible to “overlay” / “superimpose” a text caption on this kind of page? It’s great how when you scroll over then the background colour and title appear, but I would like my customers to know what to click on.

2. Is it possible to change the background colour of the text box on a page, as opposed to the colour of the side menu and the colour of the outer block around the text box?

Thanks in advance.

Hi, sorry didn’t quite understand your questions.

I think i ran across an issue with option-tree because (i think) since i have set up a child theme, anything added to the “custom css” area of your theme options is not working. I checked option-tree’s documentation and it looks like they’ve implemented “child theme support” but i dont know if you have accounted for that. So in order for me to get any custom styling, i have to edit the main css file. If there a way you can check/ fix this issue?

Hi, there is no need to use custom CSS from theme options. The child theme’s stylesheet will overwrite the parent theme’s stylesheet.

Hi,

I just purchased your theme, and have two questions:

1. In a portfolio page, when I click ” Add Portfolio Gallery Images” nothing happens. How do I get images into a slider?

2. I tried adding this vimeo link – http://vimeo.com/60976356 – and I receive a ” it’s not a valid link” error.

Any thoughts?

Thanks, Tim

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Hello again, I have an issue with the contact map on Skylab. It does not recognise the address I put in. Is there any other way to enter an address, like with coordinates or a google maps url or something? Thanks!

Make sure you don’t have a new line at the end of your address.

No I don’t think so, the adress I put in is: 108, rue Saint Honoré, 75001 Paris, FRANCE

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