I just purchased and love this theme! One question… where can I customize the home page article boxes etc…. I’m lost with that?

Doh got it! Homepage! sorry new to wordpress…. former joomla guy here

No problem, you won’t find any Articles in WordPress :)

I love the theme, but what I miss is options for “all info of all albums”.

I would like to make a page called “facebook albums” and put 1 tag in it, which pulls all the albums from Facebook (and show an X number of pice from it) under each other. Now I have to make a new shortcode (and figure out the album ID) every time I got a new album.

Is there a way around it? Thanks

If I understand what you are asking correctly, this would be a question for the Media Grid developer ( http://codecanyon.net/item/media-grid-wordpress-responsive-portfolio/2218545?WT.ac=search_thumb&WT.seg_1=search_thumb&WT.z_author=LCweb ). We did not develop Media Grid, however the licensed plugin is included with our theme.

Thanks for the question :)

I created a ticket and within an hour had a response AND a resolution – WOW! Great service and an awesome template! :)

Thanks! :)

First, congratulation to this great Theme. I purchased it already but I have a strange effect. When I try to insert a shortcode “Article Box” or similar then I see a white emtpy window. The shortcode “Heading” works fine.

I’m using WP 3.6, and tried already without any other Plugins.

Do you have any ideas or hints?

Are you using the latest version? We havent run into this specifically! If you could open a Support Ticket at http://support.themesuite.com with temporary login details we would be happy to investigate for you! Thanks for your purchase :)

I just searched our previous Support Tickets and I did find one user that has this issue and it was caused by a plugin called ‘WP Pro Ad System’. Disabling this fixed the problem. I know you mentioned already you tried disabling the plugins, but thought it may be of interest. If you want to send us your website details though we would definitely be happy to help you get to the bottom of it! Thanks! :)

I received great support from Adam and Dan. Thanks for helping me work the kinks out, Gentlemen.

Thanks for the kind words!!! :)

pre-purchase question: I am seeing a bug in Chrome where the menu is aligned to the middle of the screen. Have you released a bug fix? I think this is the right theme for the project I’m working on but this center aligned menu is an issue.

okay… yes, it is a resolution issue. but you say the threshold is easy to adjust? (I’m very css/wordpress/php savvy) so this won’t be a make or break issue. thank you for the quick feedback!

Yep its literally just the .menu class in the mobile.css. You can just change it from 1279px to whatever you want so the media query that triggers the mobile menu only loads below whatever resolution you specify. We can assist you if necessary.

I would recommend you install the Flight Child Theme and make all of your CSS/PHP changes in that so that you can use the automatic updater and keep it up-to-date. (All of your changes and customizations will be kept separate from the core theme files so when you update you don’t need to worry about losing you changes). Obviously this is not an excuse not to have a backup, but it definitely makes life easier. :)

am familiar w/child themes! makes upgrades mucho easier.

Purchased the theme when it was initially released. There is no log describing the latest updates what kind of issues were resolved for fixed. Awesome theme and looking forward to your future releases. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the comments! :) We do actually have a changelog, just not visible from older versions. It is built into the Automatic Updater, so you can see what has changed and update with 1 click of a button. It will notify you of updates as they are released, and you will see the changelog on the update page. You would have to at least already be on a version that had the ThemeForest Automatic Updater (and have created/added an API key in your account to use it) in order to see new updates and view all the changelogs (they only show up when there is a new update).

Make sure you backup your files and database before attempting to upgrade – the older the release the more potential difficulties in upgrading. :) I’m sure it is do-able though providing you haven’t modified the core files without using the Child Theme… If you run into problems let us know!

Hi, have a problem with the navigation and responsive. On some resolutions the menu interfers with the content: http://picload.org/image/odrlooa/flight.jpg

Can you fix that? Trigger the responsive menu when it touches the content? The problem is even greater, when the navigation items ae longer. I could change this by myself but so must change all again if you update the theme.

A second problem is, that some fonts don’t resize. I can tell you which one later…

Best!

It is in the Theme Install File > Optional Child Theme folder in the download package. You just install it after you install the Flight Theme. Then when you update the theme you just update the Flight Theme and don’t touch the Flight Child Theme.

Ah ok thanks. didn’t see that way of custom.css integration before…

Maybe later I wll tell you an issue that I found (something to do with the fonts…).

Some authors do the custom.css route, but the problem is you have to remember to back that file up everytime you update the theme or you will lose your changes. You don’t have that problem with Child Themes, and Child Themes give you the ability to change PHP files if you want (it’s not limited to just CSS changes).

We would appreciate you letting us know about your font issue (you can email support@themesuite.com)... When there are issues we want to correct them ASAP! Thanks :)

At first the support might seem good but in long term there are no replies and no responses.I am disappointed by the support,google maps are not working neither is media grid nor is portfolio displaying properly.

All of your active Support Tickets have been responded to within hours of you posting them. The files had somehow gotten corrupted on your computer (maybe from the copy of WinZip you said you were using). We reinstalled WordPress and reinstalled the theme and the demo content. As you can see Google Maps are working fine now, but you will still have to re-enter a valid Google API.

I can also see that you have been working on the website and adding/customizing content since we reinstalled everything for you yesterday, so I am assuming that things are going well, but please feel free to open another Support Ticket if you have any further issues. :)

Google Maps are not working at all at both contact page and location fullscreen page also on the sidebar widget.

You haven’t signed up for a Google API as outlined in the Flight Documentation.

Also we received your Support Ticket, this Comments page is for Comments not Support Tickets. Thanks :)

I have signed up and entered the Google API key given by google

You had uploaded corrupted files in your install. We reinstalled it for you and it tested ok. :)

Does this have a side navigation bar (or the option to create one)? It looks like one of the best themes I have ever seen

Thanks for the response, but I noticed that you only allow 1 side-nab-menu. I need 3 separate side-nav-menus to appear on 3 different pages. Is this possible with your theme? That is kind of a big thing for me at this time and would determine if I purchase or not Thx for the quick response

Currently it only supports qty 1 of each of the 3 menus (flyout menu, sidebar menu, footer menu). Thanks! :)

Thanks for your quick reply Maybe I can get away with only using one side-nav-menu I will let you know Your theme is very attractive and unlike 99% of the others Thank you for producing such a stunning product

From where can i get updated version of flight theme?

Under your ThemeForest account go to the Downloads tab :)

Hi, Few questions, 1. Is there any option where we can use both the logo image and the text that appears in the background. 2.From where can we edit the background overlay? 3. Can we place a flash file at the place of image of logo? Thanks.:-)

As i add sub-pages to the menus the whole menu list is getting mixed and distorted.

Please resolve all the errors on urgent basis..The whole site is getting distorted.

The login details you provided in your Support Ticket do not work. Please correct so we can look into your issue. Also please update any new information into your existing Support Ticket as this page is for comments and pre-purchase questions, not support.

hey themesuite :)

pre-purchase question: how complicated would it be to get rid of ALL the round corners in favour of regular ones? is it more than just a “search & replace” maneuver in the CSS files?

cheers!

It would be just a search & replace in the CSS files other than the actual body background, in which the top and bottom are actual images (ie http://demo.themesuite.com/flight-wp/images/dark/bg-top-960.png is the top).

Thanks for the question! :)

I would like to ask if the theme is compatible with wordpress 3.5.2?

I have created a ticket at the support desk.Please resolve it on urgent basis. Thanks :-)

Replied :)

Thanks a lot.:-)

Never mind, the child theme was doing something weird.

Thanks, however are you sure you posted this comment in the right place? :)

It doesn’t show that you have purchased this theme and I can’t find any other messages, emails or support tickets from you. :)

Something I broke?

If you check out your update-notifier.php file (wp-content/themes/flight/update-notifier.php), on line 132 it should look like this:

$xml = simplexml_load_string($notifier_data);


Change this line to:


$xml = @simplexml_load_string($notifier_data);


and the errors should go away! :)

Anyway to adjust the font just for mobile?

Yes, just add a media query for whatever resolution you want to adjust (ie under 720px wide) in the Child Theme style.css. If you need help with this just open up a Support Ticket with your WordPress login details and what fonts you want to change and we can set it up for you! Thanks :)

Just found this theme. Where have I been?! Anyway, I have a few pre-purchase questions…

  1. Can the home page have a slider that has the little squares to navigate to different slides? And can those slides be clickable url’s?
  2. In the portfolio pages, I like the look of the 2 column, no description style. Can those be links to their respective portfolio pages or do they have to be links to the jpg image themselves?
  3. Also, in the 2 column description portfolio page, I notice that the actual pages each image links to is just a “stretched” version of the image in the 2 column page. Can this theme have separate images for both?
  4. Can the “Flight” logo be a custom image file (png) instead of text?
  5. Are there any plans for instagram integration?

This theme is incredible. Went through all 7 pages of these comments. Your support looks stellar. I will be buying this theme soon!

Thanks for your interest!

1.) Yes, it is Cyclone Slider 2 that the theme uses, and it is customizable: http://www.codefleet.net/cyclone-slider-2/templates/

2.) Yes, these can be linked to whatever you want

3.) Yes definitely, these can be separate images. We should really fix that in the demo!

4.) Yes, you can use an image file (ie PNG) instead of text. In the Option Panel for the demo you can just check off “Enable Image Logo” to see it demonstrated.

5.) What kind of integration are you looking for? Just a display of the picture feed? Would it be for the background slideshow, portfolio, or…? If you have an example site that has it integrated how you would like to see it, we would be interested to look at it and maybe we can add something similar into one of our upcoming updates…

Thanks for the encouraging words! We definitely do stand behind the product 100%, so if you have any issues we are here to help. Thanks again! :)

Thanks for the quick reply.

As for Instagram, I was just thinking of something that shows the pics, just like the flickr widget. A possible work-around is populating a flickr account with instagram pix automatically through ifttt. But an instagram widget would be awesome.

We are working on the Instagram widget for you right now, it should be available in the Flight Theme on ThemeForest later today :)

I love this theme! Support is awesome…

Thank you!! :)
