Hi,

I see that on the blog grid page, when I click on the featured image, it zooms in on the image. Is it possible to link to the actual post itself rather than zooming when clicking the image ?

Is it possible to remove the meta data from the posts like author name, date etc. I am assuming that even if there is no options in the admin panel, I would be able to take it out via css with a display:none entry.

Please let me know on the above

Hi, There is an option to disable this in single posts metaboxes. Yes you can remove them with an option. Thanks

What about the image linking to the post ?. Is that also possible ?

Hi Artbees, waynep16 didn’t help in answering my questions. I would very much appreciate if you (and not he) would answer my pre-sale questions from above. I’m very much looking forward to purchasing the theme but need to know that it will work for me in the long run. It seems like a wonderful theme. Thanks.

Of course I will attend to all comments individually no matter anyone has given a useful feedback. ;)

Like theme very much and might buy. But the blog section is missing something was hoping it would have. Might the blog have the ability to be filterable by category with tabs sometime in the future to auto arrange items in the blog section? Categories will be a very important part of blog section and like that feature when I have seen it as it’s the most simple way to arrange blog based on the user’s need. Thanks

Hey, thanks for considering our item, Unfortunately the feature you asked is not a common practice. We use filterable posts in only portfolio posts that users need to filter the works and portfolio items for a quick look. but since blog posts in their nature is for a date based articles, there is no such featured needed. If you can show me a theme in themeforest I would be convinced to give this feature in future updates. Also please note that this theme is for business purposes and blogging section of this theme is enough for its nature. if you need more focus on blogging section I recommend you to consider a theme that has been made solely for blogging. I hope I could answer your question. Thanks

Yes – it’s not the MOST important part of my site but will use it and liked this feature – http://3clicks.bringthepixel.com/tag/gallery-3-cols-filter-pt/ But I like your theme better. It’s not a deal breaker in buying your theme – just would make it perfect when it almost already is anyway. Was just curious if something similar was possible. Thanks

Okay I will try my best to add this feature, even-though I dont think its a good idea. Thanks

Hello. We imported the sample content but the pages that got imported are totally blank. No shortcodes, structure etc. Is this a known issue? we’d really like to see how the sample pages were built so we can reverse engineer the structure…

Hey thanks for contacting us! Please note that its due to a wrong import reasons. this is not a known issue. we have tested import and many people did so. therefore I suggest you to open a ticket in our help desk and let us import it for you. you can also get the page templates here at : http://artbees.net/themes/jupiter/docs => page templates. we have included almost all content. Thanks

@tricell and stevew111 – thats not true ! click out of the visual composer and press on text to get the basic text editor bak THEN press the visual composer button and it will all be there safe – besides – wordpress 3.6 has the new revisions manager too so dont hate on the theme because you’re struggling with it, i’m a free hand coder and developer but the page composer is fascinating – it works great

Hey thanks for helping out, I do appreciate that. :)

This last point my tricell brings up an important point for me before purchasing: It seems that with this theme we will become very dependent on the Visual Page Builder (we could choose not to use it but that defeats the whole purpose of buying this theme).

1. What happens to our pages/posts in the future (years from now) if you stopped supporting this theme and the Page Builder stopped working. Would our pages be in a form that we could continue editing them with Wordpress. In other words, can the standard Wordpress editor read and present the pages/posts that are created with the Page Builder.

2. Since your builder is built on Visual Composer Plugin, will we be able to purchase and update that plugin on our own in the future if for some reason you were to stop updating this theme. Would our pages/posts be compatible with the Visual Composer plugin.

I know your answer might be that you will continue to support this theme forever, but things happen. I need to think long term.

Thanks for creating what seems to be an amazing theme.

Hey, Thanks for such a valuable question you brought into the attention.

No! not at all! I will not stay here and lie you that I will support this theme for ever, this is practically not possible anywhere in world. but if you asking about my working attitude, you should check out the way I reposed to support and pre-sale questions. Being responsible in business doubles the success and I strongly believe that as an experienced developer. If you ask me about Page Composer :

Page Composer is module to make your life easier without the hassle of struggling with shortcodes. if you remove it, all content will stay untouched. There is very long thread in TF forum, that almost all Elite authors as well as envato staff discussed some important changes needed to be taken into account for future updates. there are huge changes coming up in TF regarding to shortcodes. its a long story and very technical discussion, but if you are very interest you can check that out here : http://support.envato.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/472

Basically all wordpress themes should accommodate shortcodes and their modules as an standalone plugin and they should even work in other themes with a Bootstrap fallback. so you will never lose your themes content even if you switch your theme. Yes this is pretty heavy job for us as developers, our effort doubles. but this is very good for customers. you will not be depended to Jupiter if you purchase it, you will even no longer depend to Page Composer because we will release it as a plugin to use it free of charge once you purchase the theme anywhere you like, in any theme you like. We are making Page composer faster in our coming updates. since we have changed the original plugin, its not anymore the same item, so we will maintain it ourselves the same other authors does. Please let me know if you need to know more. I will be happy to talk about all these issues if you need more info, not because to convince you to purchase this item, rather its a very useful and interesting topic for many people over here. ;) Thanks

Thank you so much for your thoughtful answer. It’s amazing to find such a great theme with a developer that cares as much as you do. No need to convince me, I’m sold. I’m going to definitely purchase it now. That was my only concern and now it’s no longer a concern.

Hey Thanks for your positive feedback, anytime we are here to serve you. For your info we will change page composer backend module structure to take advantage of backbone.js (a modular JS library that saves ajax call backs in browser and speed becomes almost instant). This new update regarding the page composer will arrive within a month (its a huge work) and we will release it as a plugin and you should install it manually after this update. This will add more trust to wordpress themes sold in TF. to be honest I was very sad about this new changes but when looking form different perspectives it really really great thing for envato + cusomer + author. Thanks

REQUEST – let us add “tags” for projects / portfolio ! just like blog posts have tags

Just added to feature request list. Thanks

At first look, this theme is amazing. Then when you buy it and realize that it is coded for idiots, it’s not that great. You can only use one mode of creating a page, either text/visual or the page composer. If you try to use both, it automatically deletes everything you’ve created. This is the most frustrating theme I’ve ever used and I wish I didn’t buy it.

Hi, Thanks for sharing your experience with us!

However I will not accept your critiques. the reason is that we have used a very famous plugin (Visual Composer) which has been used in hands of over 30,000 customers and if you count those themes that included this feature the number grows. If you switch between Text and Composer mode, nothing should be deleted. If you face this with such issue(deleting the content), then I am afraid there is a problem on your installation. why? Page Composer uses ajax calls to communicate with wordpress shortcode API to convert them into a visual module. I have not seen this before someone reporting it, but I will need to take a look at it to give you a feedback. Please open a ticket in our help desk and let us troubleshoot that for you. Thanks

Another request – when using “custom menu” in widget area – can the MK-Icons we choose also show in side bar rather than just a boring list?

Hey thanks for this request, Yes in fact we have this feature and we are thinking about bringing this to the theme in future updates. I will add this feature in v1.3.6 but check this with me later (after 2 weeks). Thanks

SMALL request – when having a testimonial you are making the author name the hyperlink when a URL is specified – i think the link should be on the company name and not the testimonial author. Or we could have a choice ? :P Thank you again for all hard work

Hey thanks for giving value to our hard work, Sure I will give fix this in our coming version. so the URL will direct the company rather than author. Thanks :P

Any way of not hard cropping the images on the woocommerce recent carousel? I tried to run regenerate thumbnails and it fixed the hard crop from the main product pages, but I can’t turn off hard crop from the carousel. Please help!

Hey, we do not crop featured images in carousel, we just called Woocommerce built-in shortcode inside our hard code :
$output .= do_shortcode( '[featured_products per_page="'.$per_page.'" orderby="'.$orderby.'" order="'.$order.'"]' );
please open a ticket in our help desk for more clarification. Thanks

Hey, when will the update be live? I dont want to have to re-install after i make changes.

Hey, there is a long list, please check the update log one we released to see the update log, I dont have a the full list to paste it here (its in our Wunderlist task list and we export the list once we finished the update). Thanks :)

Hey, when can I expect the update? its been more than a day already.

Hi, I do apologise to meet the ETA, I had to spend my past 8 hours in an airplane and when I arrived to destination I had some troubles. I finally got back to work and will release our next update with a day delay. I am sorry for the delay. Thanks

I’m finding on mac, chrome, that the scrolling is effected, and doesn’t scroll at the usual rate and smoothness of 99% of other sites.

Hey, we are using Nicescroll feature to scroll page, you can see some themes also accommodated this feature which adds a smooth scroll, you can disable this feature from theme settings. Thanks

ah ha perfect. Yeah, on a personal note, I actually click off themes that have thinking I can’t trust them as they’re not responding the way I would expect, changing the flow of my scroll strokes etc. I would have thought I’m not the only one so it may be worth having it off in the demo? thanks for the reply

Yes thanks for giving a feedback regarding this feature, in fact It helps to parallax backgrounds and they look great with smooth scroll. Since I am not the guy to decide for disabling this feature, I will talk about this with my team member. Thanks for your suggestion :)

Hey guys, sorry for getting you back little late, currently I am pretty busy with a new update and I will answer to all comments in a couple of hours once our new update is done. Thanks for your patience. :)

Am I crazy, or am I just trying to do the impossible? Every time I try to put columns inside a page section, it freaks out and deletes the contents of the columns if I update the page when in Page Composer.

Hey, You are not crazy, unfortunately WordPress does not good with third level shortcodes, in your case elements inside columns are third level shortcodes. Thats why we have made almost all shortcodes built-in shortcodes, you can do a different approach : make your column shortcodes in an other page, then put them inside text block editor. this way backend page composer will render them as text but in front end they will work well. We have used this technic a few times when it was just not possible to make it with built-in module columns. Let me know if you need more assistance.

^^ YES ! 100% agree with ISSgovernance – something like that – good for building infographics etc Please add this high up on feature requests.

Hey thanks for your suggestion, Sure thing and I will add this in coming updates. In v1.3.5 Thanks :)

wishlist

it would be awesome if you add something like this this to your unparalled list of shortcodes and custom content: http://themes.themewaves.com/flatco/shortcodes/milestone/

Hey thanks for your suggestion, Sure thing and I will add this in coming updates. In v1.3.5 Thanks :)

Hello, the frosty back ground of boxed icon box doesnt work in the chrome browser. the frosted background is transparent. please lt me know how this can be resolved

Hi, thanks for your suggestion, if you mean the blur effect in icon boxes, yes there are some instabilities and we ill fix this issue in coming versions. I am trying to code a new script which does work in all installations. Thanks for your patience.

Hi, is the page builder applicable only for pages or does it work with posts too ?. I see all your blog postings have the same content and layout.

All Post types has page composer, we did just duplicate the content in demo as there is no need to make different contents for demonstration . :)

Hi,

Using the Button shortcode placed in a slide in Layer Slider isn’t showing correctly ? Thanks

Hey I am afraid you can not place a shortcode inside LayerSlider. so you will need to generate your button inside a page and view source to grab its naked source code. if you feel its difficult to do that, open a ticket in our help desk, so our staff will help you about this. Thanks
