Hi Pirenko,
is there a way to filter out a blog category? e.g the “blog” page wouldn’t show any post from “Ruins” category..
Hi,
Under each blog page you have the option to filter and show only some categories. So just make sure you select all with the exception of the Ruins category.
Cheers!
Is it possible to make the homepage screen rotate automatically?
Hi,
I assume you are using the Fullscreen Slider page so you’ll find that option under the page content when you are editing it.
Cheers!
Just purchased and installed theme on a fresh installation with the provided child theme.
Uploaded a 220px wide logo and a 440px wide logo for retina and the logo is being resized to about half of what it should be to properly fill the area. Also, I tried other browsers and of first load I was show the low res version but on a page refresh the hi res version showed and shrunk to half size..

Hi,
I opened that link and it seems to be fine here. What browser are you using? Also are you on a retina screen?
Yes, I’m on a Mac book pro and I replicated it on my iPad. Like I said, on first load it loads the low res image (I inspected the element first to see what image it grabbed), filling the space. Try refreshing your screen and see what happens. I’ve tried it in Chrome, Safari (Mac book & iPad) and FF. All with the same results.
I should add that the Mac book is a retina and when I load the site on my non-retina machine the low res logo fits just fine.
Poking around on my local install a bit, I see that deleting the /2 in lines 3112 & 3113 of main.js seems to fix the issue.
Hi,
Can you tell me if this also happens with the theme preview? http://www.pirenko.com/samba_land/
Thanks!
Hello,
Yes, your preview had the same issue…. But, it doesn’t now. Did you change something in the last 7 hour?
Hi,
Yeah, I sorted it out in the meantime. Send me a private message and I’ll send you a quick fix. Thanks!
Great theme and Best support on themeforest! Highly recommended!
Thanks cadop 
IDEAS
As im building there are a couple of things that would help a lot for a future update release… 1) Addition the the ‘separator’ shortcode would be a blank line that you could control the depth (in pixels) 2) From the home page when using the ‘latest portfolio’ shortcode it would be good to give the option to return back to origination (the home page) once the user closes down viewing a particular portfolio item. At the moment it always reverts to taking them to the portfolio section which can be disorientating if they think they are viewing from the homepage.
Anyway, just thoughts Andy
Thank you for your feedback. I’ll take them into consideration.
Cheers 
Looking great Pirenko.
How do I implement one of your listed fonts in the included Revolution Slider. Im trying to use ‘TeX Gyre Heros’ which from what I can tell isnt a native Google Font which is what Revolution Slider supports. When I try to add the TeX Gyre Heros to my slider CSS it just ignores it. It works with system fonts like Arial but nothing else.
What do you suggest? Andy
Hi,
Revolution Slider won’t load the fonts that you set using CSS. It will apply the styles, but you still need to load the fonts on the theme header. On the other side, you have the theme that will load only 2 fonts (the header and the body font). If you want to use a different font on the slider (it will be a third font) you need to make the theme load it and for that you should add the necessary code to the header.php file.
As usual you can send me a private message if you need help with this. Cheers!
Hi there.
I have already loaded ‘TeX Gyre Heros’ as my main theme heading font. I can’t use a lot of the others as they cause display issues.
When I go into Rev Slider and edit a CSS layer by using TeX Gyre Heros in the font family it doesn’t show up. Can you explain how I get TeX Gyre Heros to show up. You mention loading a third font but I’m only using this and Open Sans so I don’t need a third.
Cheers Andy
Hi,
This should work fine then… I sent you an email 12h ago asking for a link to your page so that I can see what’s going on. Thanks!
Just to let you know that I just sent you another email. Cheers!
hi Pirenko how to add social network sites link on footer
Hi,
That’s a widgetized area so you need to add the Samba: Social Links widget to the Left Sidebar.
Cheers!
Hi Pirenko – I love the theme. I have 3 silly questions, though. In the demos, you show the full width slider (with content); and corporate style. 1 – I see the slider, but how do I get it full width like that? Can I write on the slider pictures like in the theme? 2 – How do I set up corporate style? It’s not a theme page or post. 3 – How can I fix the image like in Team Member Single? Mine shows up as a full page image for some reason, and would really like it to show as it is in demo.
Hi,
Here are my comments:
1 – This video should cover your questions http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q5InoxBuH5c&list=PLWiviR4wWrsEwB95voMUNiVIqJma9xNmV
2 – This page is a page with sections. It has some elements added to the content using the visual composer and it has also a featured slider (you’ll find this option under the page content);
3 – Please take a look at this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbLeHaDyKQQ&list=PLWiviR4wWrsEwB95voMUNiVIqJma9xNmV
Cheers!
Hi,
Please how to insert the social media and search in the left footer as in the demo?
Thanks,
M
Nevermind… sorted
Ok, cheers!
Hi Pirenko,
seems like the “Logo vertical margin (in pixels)” option also moves the vertical margin from the logo to the menu area, is it possible for me to just move the logo closer to the menu. But not disabling the option to move the logo further from the top though..
Hi,
Try adding this under Samba Options>Custom Scripts>Custom CSS:#logo_holder {margin-bottom:0px !important;}
Cheers!
worked like a charm. Thank man.. 
One more thing, is it possible to change the width of the navigation bars?
You can with CSS, but in this case it’s more than just one line of code. And you’ll need also to edit the main.js file so that the menu slides in and out as expected.
Thanks!
Are skills automatically listed in alphabetical order on the individual portfolio post pages? Is so, can this be changed with some plug-in or some other way?
Hi,
Yes, they are ordered in alphabetical order. This plugin used to work, but now I don’t know, because it hasn’t been updated in the last 2 years: http://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-taxonomy-sort/
Cheers!
Hi, I’ve already bought your theme, it’s awesome!
I’ve just a problem. I’ve installed demo content, and now left column is broken (credits are cut off)
http://postimg.org/image/w5m7zlnb5/Can you help me, please?
I see now this happen only for logged users (for not logged user the footer is fine)
Ok, that’s because the theme makes calculations according to the window height. If you prefer you can hide the sidebar even when logged in (go to Users>Your profile and select the option to hide the sidebar).
Cheers!
Hi,
Please go to Samba Options>General tab>Minimum content width before collapsing menu and set it to something big enough. You can place there 10000 for example.
You can find some help here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nlSJUrW0-n0&list=PLWiviR4wWrsEwB95voMUNiVIqJma9xNmV
Thanks!
That works! However, it created another problem. In the navigation, we have some sub menus. When we click on the menu, the sub items expands but the also menu collapsed. What it should happen is, the sub items expands(displayed), but the menu should not collapsed. Can you please advice? Thanks again
Hi,
Please send me a private message with a link so that I can see what’s going on.
Cheers!
I Have sent you an email with admin login name and all: the link is”http://freshabove.com/wordpressunit/”
Ok, I’ll get back to you later today. Cheers!
Hi Pirenko.
You’ve created a fantastic theme which is working really well but I am having one problem that I’d appreciate your advice on please.
When I turn off the ‘Use Ajax calls to load content?’, the menu flickers badly on an iPad during the default slideshow to the point where it’s not really useable.
My problem is that I need to display a slideshow but all of the third party slideshows I’ve tried (Slider Pro, Royal Slider, Justified Image Grid etc) all fail to load correctly when ‘Use Ajax calls to load content?’ is set to ‘On’.
Are you able to advise on a possible work-around?
Thanks
Phil
Hi,
Some of the slider code seems to be interfering with the menu. Please send me a private message with a link so that I can try to see the reason for that. Cheers!
Thanks Pirenko. I’ll send you the info shortly. 
Ok, thanks!
Thanks for providing update 1.4 Pirenko, this has done the trick and everything now works perfectly.
Fantastic support which is much appreciated.
Phil
Thanks Phil 
Hi, is there a way to make the logo bigger than 440px max for RT display? It would be good to have it be able to stretch the most of the width of the navigation bar.
-Thanks
Hi,
If you add the following code under Samba Options>Custom Scripts>Custom CSS you’ll get extra 40 pixels for the main logo (80 pixels for the retina logo image):#logo_holder{padding:0px}
Cheers!
no way to get a little bit more? The logo I am working with has some smaller support text with it, and I would like the whole logo to stretch the width of the navigation area.
It seems that we are talking about different things. The code I gave you makes the logo fill the whole navigation area if it has the maximum size. Maybe you are talking about when the menu is collapsed on top… Send me a private message with a screenshot and a link so that I can see what you mean.
Cheers!
Possible to adjust color of navigation pane? This can be done from theme control, or in css?
Thanks
Hi,
All colors all controlled with the theme options. You only need Custom CSS if you intend to change the theme default bahavior. Thanks!
Ok, thanks… purchased… is it possible to assign a featured color to a page instead of a post?
Nevermind… found it, thanks 
Ok 
Hi, I am using Calendarize it by RightHere plugin, and the Calendar seems to have trouble loading because of the Ajax function. If I disable it the calendar will appear, if it’s on it will only appear if I reload the page.
The Ajax is a nice feature I would love to keep. It creates a much smoother experience. Would there be a way to block it for just one page, the Calendar page? I tried creating a custom menu with a http: link hoping it would reload, but it still process the Ajax.
Any idea?
Hi,
I see what you mean. I think we can find a way to make this work. I’m thinking of creating an extra class that you add to the menu or the button link so that it forces a full website reload. Send me a private message with a link to your website so that I can see how you have this link set up.
Cheers!
Hi Pirenko, I hope it is okay to have another question. In the menu bar you have the menu Shop. Below that you have Submenu ‘cart’. If an item is purchased it shows below the ‘cart’, like (1 Item-$21.50) in the menu. (I am sure you didn’t use a widget here)
This looks sooo great. I too have added the cart as a submenu to the shop link and now I too would like to have the items showing beside the cart link in the menu. I don’t figure out how you did this. Can you please guide me here? Thanks in advance. Doris
Hi,
Please go to Samba Options>Woocommerce tab and choose if you want to append the cart info to the Shop button or to the Cart button. Make sure that you add to the menu at least the Shop or the Cart button depending on the choice you made before on the theme options.
Cheers!
Thanks! works perfect 
Great 
Is this using bootstrap 3 or foundation?
Hi,
It’s tweaked version of Zurb foundation (grid only). Cheers!
Hi,
If “website much like” means a plain black and white website with a white background, yes you can do that.
Cheers!
Right, what I mean is the background of the content and the menu to both be white, so that you can’t tell that there is a boundary there.
Also, simplistic fonts.
Ok, so, once again, the answer is yes. The theme comes packed with over 60 fonts including helvetica (it’s the font used on the website you said). You can also add custom fonts using the method shown here: http://www.munto.net/blog/2013/08/27/extra-fonts-plugin-by-pirenko/
Thanks!
Ok great, purchasing now
Cool, thanks!
I’m having this error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_get_theme() in /home/content/52/6876752/html/wp-content/themes/samba/inc/config.php on line 36
Hi,
Please update your Wordpress version at least to 3.5. Thanks!
Ok thanks,
Few questions:
1. How can I move the logo graphic over so that it’s in the center of the menu bar? 2. How can I add fonts? 3. How can I change the font size of the menu?
http://verumclothing.com/Hi,
1 – Try adding this code under Samba Options>Custom Scripts tab>custom CSS:#logo_holder {text-align:center;}
2 – Please follow the steps shown here http://www.munto.net/blog/2013/08/27/extra-fonts-plugin-by-pirenko/
3 – Try adding this extra code: #menu_section .sf-menu li a{font-size:14px;}
Cheers!
Great thanks.
1. Is it appropriate to continue to ask questions here or do you have a designated place? 2. I noticed there is an e-commerce shop option on the sample site. How can I add this?
Hi,
1 – This is the right place to ask for general questions. If it’s about some sort of customization you should send me a message through my profile page here on Themeforest;
2 – The free plugin being used is WooCommerce;
Cheers!
How can I make the white space at the top of this page above the slider go away? I want to make it so that there is no scroll bar at all.
http://verumclothing.com/lookbook-2/fallwinter-2013/Hi,
Try using Page with Sections as the page template. Another alternative is adding this under Samba Options>Custom Scripts tab>Custom CSS:.page-112 .unsidebarized.columns {padding-top:0px;}
Cheers!
Is there a way I can completely delete the page headings? For example, on the boutique page (where I installed woocommerce), I can’t make the “boutique” at the top go away, even though I have checked “hide titles”
Hi,
Is it only on that page or you want that also on the other WooCommerce pages?
On all of them please
Try addins this under Samba Options>Custom Scripts tab>Custom CSS:.woocommerce #headings_wrap {display:none;}
Cheers 
Thanks. Is there an ideals size to make images/videos for the the full screen slider?
The theme does not interfere anything with these so their size depends on the screens that your visitors would use. I would say at least they should have 1200px wide.
Cheers!
