Hi there!
I just want to know how to play with fonts, for example I changed the body font but now the menu font looks quite big, is there a css to change just the menu font size? and is possible to add a specific font family for post title, very different than menu font?
Hi,
Changing the body font type will not change your menu font size. About your other questions everything is possible with some CSS code. For instance to change the menu font size you can try this:.sf-menu a {font-size:1.1em !important;font-weight:normal !important;}
Cheers!
thank you very much!
How do I make my block quotes look like your ones in the demo team pages ? when I do it, it just looks like a square blue color with no page curl.
Hi
You may have a plugin interfering with the theme so please turn them all off for a moment and try again. If you still have trouble please send me a private message with a link. Cheers!
My site is running on a basic installation. I think I just need the code tags for the body of text im currently using ?blockquote??span style=”color: ?ffffff;”?/span?MY TEXT?/blockquote? Could you please furnish me with the correct one thx in advance 
? equals < or >
Hi,
You don’t need to insert any code by hand. Just add those elements using the plugin Visual Composer. If you still have trouble please send me a private message with a link.
Cheers!
Top notch template and worth every crown. Samba suits my every need and I look forward to its continued development and support 
Hi,
Thank you for your kind comments 
Hi;
Thanks for theme.. But i havent find the analytic code solution.. i tried this code below.. But it didnt work. And there is no samples in the Help files.. Can you explain?
Regards..
<script> (function(i,s,o,g,r,a,m){i[‘GoogleAnalyticsObject’]=r;i®=i®||function(){ (i®.q=i®.q||[]).push(arguments)},i®.l=1*new Date();a=s.createElement(o), m=s.getElementsByTagName(o)[0];a.async=1;a.src=g;m.parentNode.insertBefore(a,m) })(window,document,’script’,’//www.google-analytics.com/analytics.js’,’ga’);
ga('create', 'UA-46xxxxx9-1', 'xxxxxxxxxx.com');
ga('send', 'pageview');
</script>
Hi,
That code seems to be fine. Why do you say that it is not working?
Thanks!
because its not working
Can i get your e-mail for screen shot? or can you please send me email? birol@projectistanbul.com
A screenshot does not solve anything… I just need to see if the code is being injected on the page and that’s why I asked you why do you say that it’s not working.
Please send me a private message with a link to your website. Thanks 
is there any way to use videojs or mediaelement video player in a posts i.e in http://www.pirenko.com/samba/video-portfolio/ i wanted to use a custom player for youtube instead of using the youtube embedded player.
(video js have youtube support via plugin https://github.com/videojs/video.js/wiki/Plugins)
Hi,
I haven’t tried that, but you should check that video player documentation. Anyway, that will probably work only if you place something on the post content… As an alternative you can always edit the correspondent php file to make it work.
Cheers!
Can you tell me which file I need to edit
Hi,
If you want to create a page like that you need to edit inc/ajax-handler.php
Cheers!
Thanks one more thing. On mobiles when you open the sidebar you can scroll the main content area while the side bar is open. But on desktop it’s OK (it does not scoll) . Is there a way to stop the main content are from scrolling when side bar is open. I.E http://i43.tinypic.com/2ps367m.png
That is because the mobile devices drag event (different from desktop). You can do that by editing the main.js file. Probably you’ll have trouble and the menu scrollbar will stop working. Cheers!
thanks, i found this http://codecanyon.net/item/ajax-content-navigator-for-wordpress/3974652?WT.ac=item_more_thumb&WT.seg_1=item_more_thumb&WT.z_author=ThemeFluent a really good plugin for ajax filtering with custom options, just need to modify the css to match the theme.
Ok, cool 
Hello I just bought the Samba theme for a website I’m making for a friend. The theme is one of the best I used for Wordpress and I like it very much. I have one question for you (I know you might be in holidays now. I don’t expect a fast answer): I want to have all the menu sections opened by default but I didn’t find any option in the samba menu for that. Thank you.
Hi,
You can for all the submenus to be opened (and always stay like that) by adding this code under Samba Options>Custom Scripts>Custom CSS:.sf-menu ul{display:block !important;}
If you want to make them be opened by default and keep the theme original behavior after clicking on something, you’ll need to edit the main.js file located on the js folder.
Cheers!
hi, just wondering is there any plans on implementing sort post by favorite, also ability filter search post by categories (i know there is a post filter) but be able to ajax query post (i.e like http://themeforest.net/?osr=tn) where you can click a category and it would run ajax query and load only the post from that category.
Hi,
I don’t have this in mid for future updates… Both requests seem a bit specific and they don’t represent a generic user request.
Cheers!
HI,
I stil love your theme! I have just one question left of something I can’t get rid of. On my site (www.rontermeer.nl) at the startpagina I keep having a white (background) line above the skils and the same line between the photo and the colord line if you click on a photo.
Is this a setting, or is the size of my photo nog right?
regards Ron
Hi,
It seems that you have an empty row on that portfolio page content. Please make sure that it stays empty.
Cheers!
indead on the startpage there was an emty line. Made exadently in de editor. On the portfoliopage of the photograph it should be the same I think. Gonna find this out.
Tks for the fast en and good support!
Hi,
Could you tell me what type is pirenko_skills in $terms = get_terms(“pirenko_skills”) ? I need to make a $terms = get_terms(“my_variable”) but i don’t understand if pirenko_skills is an array or a string, i tried to trace with echo… Thanks a lot
Hi,
It is an array. Wordpress Codex has the most accurate answers: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_terms
Cheers!
ok many thanks…but still strange because i get nothing with get_terms($my_Array)...I continue searching, i need to retrieve some fields from Advanced Custom Fields in this filter bar…. thanks
You have been making changes to the theme so I can’t make any further comments. Cheers!
hi , just sent you a MP, Merry Christmas !
I have an issue on the theme. i have two teams and members for each (Board of Directors and Management Team). for the Board of Directors i indicated that it should not show link to single member pages but on the Management Team, it should. And i still find all my team members appearing on my single member page. What do i do about that?
Hi,
It seems that you have a point here. Send me a private message and I’ll send you a tweaked php file. Thanks!
Is there a way to embed video in the half-page sliders?
Hi,
What do you mean with “half-page sliders”? Send me a link to a page like this please. Thanks!
the corporate style
Hi,
Yes, you can do that. Cheers!
Hello Pirenko,
I am really enjoying the theme, thank you. I am wondering about how to make the menu only collapse on specific pages. What I want to achieve is expanded menu on the homepage so my visitors "learn" where the menu is, and then have it collapsed on every other page. How might this be possible?
Thanks, happy holidays!
Hi,
You’ll need to edit the main.js file located on the js folder for this.
Cheers!
Thanks for the lightning fast response. I’ll give it a try.
Hello! The Samba is very good theme! Pirenko, I need to combine the two into one template, I still do not know php well. I need to combine the “Page With Sections” and “Blog Page Grid” in one, and that it appears in the list of templates. Is that even possible?
Hi,
That seems a “strange” idea. Can you tell me what you want to achieve?
Thanks!
Granted, the idea of strange) I need to get on top was a slider (with auto slideshow) underneath the title, and under the heading Blog-Grid. I did so using a template Blog Grid, placed on top of the slider in the options put Autoplay slideshow, but why not change slides automatically. What could be the problem? Here’s a screenshot http://img89.imageshack.us/img89/5941/clr2.jpg
The code can be seen – autoplay “yes”
Are you using the latest theme version? If you are already please send me a private message with a link so that I can check this issue.
Cheers!
yes, i bought it two days ago
So please send me a private message with a link so that I can check this issue.
Cheers!
Ok, i was sent a message and thanks for the quick answers!
Thank you very much for fast support. You are the best!
Great 
Hello Pirenko,
I have made my BLogpage is Homepage as Everything is not ready for homepage yet. Now,I have limited only 3 posts per blog from :
Settings -> Reading -> Blog pages show at most = 3 Posts .
Now, when I see homepage and click on load more posts, Sometimes the same posts are loaded again and Again.
What’s wrong with it ? Please check this URL : http://www.googlersays.com/
Hi,
Please turn off all the plugins you may have and try again. If you still have trouble please send me a private message with your WP login details so that I can see how you have things set up.
Cheers!
Hello Pirenko, I have sent you an email. Please check and respond.
Hello, I’m trying to decide whether or not to purchase this theme. It looks great! I do have a question though – do the blog posts only allow one photo per post? Is the gallery post option the only way to include more than one photo? Thanks!
Hi,
Blog posts can have up to ten images. Here’s an example with 3 images: http://www.pirenko.com/samba/2013/08/22/gallery-post/
You can also add galleries to the content using the Visual Composer plugin. Cheers!
Thanks for the super quick reply! But, blog posts can’t have more than one individual image. The only option is a gallery? Thanks!
Maybe I’m not understanding what you want to do. Can you send me a link to a page where you have something similar? Send me private message if you prefer. Thanks!
Sorry for not being clearer. I mean separate images scattered throughout the post like here: http://www.thequiltengineer.com/the-white-stripes-quilt/. Or here: http://www.casperheij.nl/2013/10/07/de-weg-naar-new-york-marcanne-en-elvira-rennen-tegen-kanker
Thanks!
Well you can do that using the post content. If you want to see how to build a page on this theme take a look at this tutorial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8hBecwTKOrs&list=PLWiviR4wWrsEwB95voMUNiVIqJma9xNmV
Thanks!
Watching now. You’re the best! Thanks!
Also looking at your Samba Blog Management YouTube video it looks like there’s an option to “Disable slider and show images and videos vertically”. This may work as well. Thanks for your help!
Great 
Hello,
Since a few weeks, the theme is working not the way it used to.
Now on most every page, I get “code” in my page like: vc_row/vc_column
You can see what I mean on www.rontermeer.nl In the visual composer it looks all OK.
Hi,
It seems that you have the Visual Composer plugin off. Please turn off all the plugins you may have and leave active only the two that are included with the theme. If you still have trouble please send me a private message through my profile page with your WP login details.
Cheers!
Thanks for your fast reply!
I did find the problem. It is an update of an other plugin from Oypo.
Decided to remove this plugin.
Ok, thank you for your feedback!
okay prienko, sorry, here am i again – with the accout with which i bought samba – with my question: how can i backup my theme-settings? I did not find this option. Best!
Hi,
That option is not available, but I should be able to help you. Can you tell me why do you want to do this?
Thanks!
MMh, when I make an update, or for some reason the installation crashes… it would be easy to rebuild the site: by installing wp new, theme new, thean import themesettings, import wp-xml. ready. easy. safe. btw: are the settings maintained, when there is an update of the theme?
Hi,
When you update the theme settings are maintained. Anyway they are stored on your database in an array: the variable id is “samba_theme_options” so you can also save your database and then grab this variable for future reference.
Cheers!
Hi Pirenko, brilliant work and doc. Thanks! One question: how can i backup my theme-settings? I did not find this option. Best!
Hi,
Where did you buy the theme?
themeforest via envato
I don’t see a Purchased badge so make sure that you place all enquiries using the account that bought the theme. If you have any trouble please contact Envato Support.
Cheers!
a, oh sorry… , yes i will login with my other account, with which i bougt your theme… hold on a second…
Ok 
Hello Pirenko,
Is there an option within Samba that will allow “sub-menus” to remain hidden until selected by the page user. I am looking under “Menu Structure” but have not located that option. Please advise. Thank you.
Hi,
The theme should already behave like that. Send me a private message with a link if you think that it is different.
Cheers!
HI, I can only put a maximun of 5 Categories for my products. Can you explain how i can adjust this. Thanks
Hi,
There should be no limit for product categories. If this is related with Woocommerce please check their online documentation. If you still have trouble after that please send me a private message with a link to your page.
Thanks!
