That editor is great because it included editor and preview side by side.
Another feature of that editor is when i scroll in editor, preview followed….
I suggest that feature for next version. please.
Purchased. Hoping markdown editor _

Is there a way to specify which column is the default for sorting and the direction of the sort (ascending/descending) when using the data tables?
Hi korlo,
Sure thats possible, see the info page here:
http://datatables.net/examples/basic_init/table_sorting.htmlBecause datatables its an external plugin and the documentation can be found on the above link.

I have not experienced any problems, both the design and implementation is very clear. The application I’m developing is being programmed in ASP.NET MVC. I still think it was the best purchase I have made.
Saludos.
Hi cascara, we’re really thankful for your kind words, a great review for us, we have included your previous comment in our client testimonials.
Thank you again,

Hello, So I reviewed the FAQ section and saw your write up on implementing the login via PHP, is this not a generic solution? Forgive me but I do not know PHP at all but what parts are PHP besides the href sample link you provided? I want to implement the login via Coldfusion. Most of this code looks like Javascript to me.
Hi sartis,
Its true that the entire code is implemented on JavaScript.
We will provide an example with server side scripting language to process the login so you then can change it ColdFusion more easly.
The update will be available later this week.

Hi,
how can I save the created notes (Extras -> Notes) in a database?
Thanks
Hi abulama,
Sure you can save them, but you need to figure out how to do this on your own. We have created the JavaScript interface only. It should not be so hard to achieve it. Also open assets/js/neon-notes.js and see the functions that are supported there.

Hi,
i really like this theme! But my problem is, i’m not much good in JS and i will welcome some version of neon-chat.js with ajax sending/loading ready, like send POST to some .php file + load message from another php file with GET params (lets say in 3sec interval). I tried to do that myself, but im javascript newbie 
THX
Hi wUFr,
Thanks for your kind comments, unfortunately we are unable to offer real-time chat example on Neon, because we do not have time to program such interface. We have only created the JavaScript functions to do this thing, and the back-end should be figured out by developers who use this theme.
Consider looking to this tutorial, it might help you with implementation Chat System as well:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/javascript-ajax/how-to-create-a-simple-web-based-chat-application/Hopefully it will work for you.

Hello. I am verry intressted to use this theme for OpenCart. Do uou know how much work it is to get that to work?
The theme looks verry good 
Hi xciso, I really appreciate your comment, but unfortunately this is only HTML admin template and its not compatible with OpenCart framework.
If you know how to develop a theme for OpenCart then you can purchase Neon and convert it to OpenCart.

As Bootstrap 3.1 is in it’s way, are you going to update this theme to that version?
Hi m-alshehri,
Sure, we will take the Neon to latest version of Bootstrap.

Hi
Are you thinking about adding a “Select language” dropdown?
Hi DreyfusDK,
Sure, we have added this to our “Todo” list.
Thanks for your suggestion.
Sounds good – will purchase it soon.
Soon its going to be relased, hopefully this weekend.

Hi, great theme!
Is it possible to get some documentation on the javascript files included? i have an urge to get minimal page loads and it’s very heavy atm. same goes with the css
maybe it would be a good idea to seperate it into modules, charts etc.
Hi ewax,
Firstly thanks for your kind comments.
Neon only includes needed JavaScript files for each page, this means they are already modulated. One thing that makes this a bit different is because all the “Initialization” is called in assets/js/neon-custom.js
The code is documented for its functionality inside this file.
Arlind
Hi there First off great Template . Ok well the only problem i am seeming to have is the modal boxes in Firefox they don’t popup test in other seem fine. also test on 3 different Computers 2 running windows 7 and the other Windows 8 all did the same thing. Note: it also fails in the demo as well. Any Ideas. Thanks
Hi richievc,
We will check this issue and try to fix it in the next version. Thanks for your kind comments and reporting of the bug.
Arlind
Hi, I have just found your fantastic looking template which I might now well purchase but I have two questions. A) I need, on mobile, to have a fixed top menu visible, but ALSO below that another menu e.g. like scrollspy or drop menu or even side menu (this is for online manual pages). Is this possible to do? 
Are you going to do, on mobile, a slide out menu, rather than drop down (I notice slide out is OK on desktop)?
Thanks!
I have actually just bought it, but would still like to know
I would also add 1 other question. Having got the files I notice that the neon.css file (which must be included) is 474Kb (!) (and a colour css 15Kb) yet I can find no reference in the includes to e.g. 97Kb bootstrap.min.css which you will overide with your css (and which most people will have in cache so there is no point in you putting that in your css). Where is that, and is it possible to reduce the large css overhead? I am not familiar with how to use LESS, sorry…
Hi tc99
Firstly Thanks for purchasing Neon Theme.
As it comes for the fixed top menu on Mobile, we have plans to do this in the next version, but ScrollSpy for manual highlighting of pages we do not support it yet, and we are not sure if we will support this plugin until many users require it. You can try to integrate it by yourself and see how it works for you.
This is the file that contains all the CSS compressed into one file:
http://cl.ly/TKXnFor one reason, its good because there is only 1 HTTP request and once its executed for the first time, it will be cached, and this results in performance improvements.
We are going to create separate files for these modules in the next version.
Best regards,
Arlind
Hi Arlind, thanks for the swift response!
I was about to give up, as I am primarily working on a mobile site and a compulsory 0.5MB download just for the CSS (and that is before my assets and/or any JS etc! :)), is too big for me. I do not need everything, so being able to put just the elements of CSS I need into one CSS file will be a big help.
To that end I think it would be much better if you also kept the bootstrap.min.css separate and then had ancilliary override CSS, and I think providing your both un-minimised and minimised CSS in your download will help in customisation. hth…
Wrt comment below about a menu item for localisation (and a related icon), I am glad to hear that is coming , as well as (I read somewhere else) some landing pages. Cool!
Looking forward to the next version! atb!
Hi,
I have just purchased the theme online for single license. Everything looks fine except that I couldn’t change the skin on my local copy while online demo shows, user can select any of the color as theme from Skins dropdown.
Please suggest.
Thanks Dhirendra
Hi trivialworks, the select skins menu is only for the demo purpose, to use your own skin include the CSS (find the files on the css folder) of the desired skin.

Hi its a great admin panel but for me you have failed in the aspects there is amazingly little documentation, and when I say little I mean next to none.
You only highlighted the easiest parts like layouts and menus and then saying how you have organised the css and js.
That is it, I am finding myself searching for a long time to understand how the refresh works on the tabs, is it ajax or is it just a fancy thing to show we could do this?
As for the css and jquery, most of it is minimised which is a ball ache when trying to customise things.
Why did you not modulate your css.
Anything over 100k of css at a time is bad SEO practice.
Also why did you not supply both minimised and compressed?
Or did you and I am just not seeing it?
I would lover to modulate it myself but I cant because you have minimised the css 
Can you please improve the documents and also the css as this is unacceptable for themeforest standards
I have given a 3 star rating, I never do this on here, I normally give a minimum of a 4 star because I know how much effort a designer/developer goes through on here.
But the documentation is just so poor, its limited for customisation because you have minimised things because you failed to modulate.
If the documentation and the minimisation of important files are corrected I will raise to 5 star because it really is a good template.
Thanks

Hi UBL,
Firstly thanks for your purchase and your opinion about our work, we appreciate it.
I will clarify to you some information that will probably make you understand why we have took these actions.
Talking about documentation
1. The reason why there is only “generic” documentation is because we think that the people who already have in their mind to build application with this theme, they are familiar with HTML, CSS and JavaScript concepts, therefore I didn’t saw any reason to offer a documentation about how to create i.e. a button, which is really easy, and already been demonstrated.
2. Further more, all elements that are included on the Bootstrap framework they are already documented here:
http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/3. Also there are sections that of HTML that are explained with “HTML comments” for the functionality of the respective code.
4. I have built backend apps before and bought many admin templates from ThemeForest, and by seeing their documentation I have wrote almost the same amount of documentation that is nearly equal to “average” admin theme here on TF, so if the Envato reviewers team did saw that there is not enough documentation, this item would not be approved. For more, from the total of 600+ customers, there are less than 5 users who asked for more documentation.
We have coded this theme, in that manner to make it easier to fit in fast and continue work, and most of the users find this theme very easy in implementation. You don’t have to believe my words, you can just scroll up in comments and see their feedback.
Code modulation
I understand why you have been mad at the “Compressed” CSS file, but thats only because these files are generated/compiled in very modulative order using LESS (CSS dyniamic stylesheet language).
So if you want to dig deeper, you can see the hierarchy of inherited files that are compiled to “neon.css”, just open “assets/css/neon.less”
You see that everything is modulated in a file and they are imported, then after compilation they are joined in one single file to reduce the HTTP requests and load CSS faster after the first time page loads.
I am sorry for the compressed neon.css file, here is the un-minified version: http://cl.ly/TKXnI would recommend you to save changes on different file, because this file will be updated in the newest versions of Neon so, for better management of your changes, organize your style into custom file such as assets/css/custom.css
I suggest you to see how the LESS system works and believe me, as a web developer with 11 years experience, this will make your workflow much easier to maintain and increase your speed of production.
JavaScripts
All JavaScripts are called separated on each page, there are no unnecessary JavaScript files in any page, only them who are needed for the page functionality. This file assets/js/neon-custom.js which is executed always in the end, contains the initialization of JavaScript elements. Everything is commented about the functionality, hopefully you find this an easy approach for the JS plugin/instance initialization.
Hopefully my answer makes sense to you in any way, and if you have more questions I can surely answer you again.
Best regards
Arlind
Hi, I have a suggestion. Could you implement typeahead.js for the search bar in the sidebar.
Hi iProScopesQuick, sorry for the late reply for this comment and the other ones but we’ve been busy working on some theme updates and now we’re working on the Neon update, thank you for this suggestion it is a really nice idea to include this in the next update.

Hi, I was using the theme i wanted to Multi Select Box dynamaically option element tag insert..
so , my js code like this,
var select = document.getElementById("multipleselect");
var option = document.createElement("option");
option.text = "text";
option.value = "value";
select.appendChild(option);
and html code like this,
<select id="multipleselect" multiple="multiple" name="my-select[]" class="form-control multi-select"></select>
I use the Multi Select Box. befornhand defined option tag than nice work! but via javascript code option tag than not work.(nothing work..anything exitst error message).
end… guide book or Q&A site exist ? i wanna some help.
and .. i am sorry .. i can not english very well…but english comment is OK . Thanks!
Hi mycdj91,
In order to insert an element to Multi select box, you must use this form of implementation:
$('#your-select-box-id').multiSelect('addOption', { value: 'test', text: 'test', index: 0, nested: 'optgroup_label' });
So it is quite easy.
Thanks for purchase and your kind comments
