Hi How can I make a slider of just images for a page but view only the image no links or text? with the built in theme options? I installed the Revolution Slider to tried it but for some reason I can’t update the slides!! I can create it but can’t update or preview the slides!! any ideas

Hi,

Sorry, it needs a custom modification. This type of customization is a bit more complex and is not covered under normal theme support.

If you’re interested in hiring a developer for building out this custom page template for you, we highly recommend to check out: Tweaky

But I will add it into the future if there are many requests from customers

Potential buyer:

1, Im currently on a mac and on the browser safari and I see the video on the home page ant playing is it my browser or the theme?

2. Can we view post with big pictures on the home as opposed to just the category i.e.. (open your world see latest from travel)

3. can you remove the breaking news and keep the search?

4. can you remove the scrollable image for certain post on homepage such as keeping the image scrollable for (open your world see latest from travel) but disabling it on something else with an image?

5. make full width category page with no sidebars?

6. How exactly does the video on the homepage work is the video loading from youtube/vimeo or is it a video you have to upload to your site manually?

Hi,

1. I uses the latest version of Safari on mac and video works fine. May be try to clear browser cache.

2. You can control which content to display on homepage using content builder module.

3. Yes you can disable it using theme admin panel.

4. Sorry, I am not sure I understand you correctly, could you send me some screenshots with description please?

5. Technically you can use content builder and add category module to fullwidth page. But standard category page won’t support fullwidth.

6. If you mean video background section, you have to upload video only.

Great, easy to customize theme. I’m setting it up for a client that purchased. I noticed the “Continue Reading” or “Read More” link is missing from the post excerpts. If a post has no photo, it’s tough to tell that you can click on the headline. Is it possible to re-enable for this theme?

Hi there, is it possible to put a captcha code for contact page? I get a lot of spam emails through this. Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry currently It doesn’t support that. I will consider to add it into the future if there are many requests from customers.

Hello there,

I bought the theme a few weeks ago. I think it’s very beautiful but not that easy to use. Where are the video tutorials? I cannot find them anywhere.

Best, Therese

Thank you for purchasing.

Theme documentation’s located in your downloaded file from Themeforest

Please follow the theme’s instructions in /manual/index.html it will help you get through all theme features.

same problem as ToyCruiser.

I would like to use images that can fit in the thumbnail on the front page yet be large enough to be the featured image on a particular post. maybe some type of code to input a second picture or change the size requirements for the thumbnails.

Hi,

It can’t because. Post featured image will be cropped/zoomed to fit user screen width and every users have different resolutions.

Hello,

I’ve went through the theme settings to try to change the color of a particular link (“Read Full”) on my site. The current color is #ed232a but I need it to be #007cba. Also, all of my “Testimonials” text is red, is that because of the theme too? If so, is there a way to change them to #007cba as well. The class is below and the website is www.dariusarmour.com. Let me know if you need more info. Thanks!

.post_title .read_full a:active { color: #ed232a; margin: auto; font-size: 20px; font-family: ‘Oswald’, ‘Helvetica Neue’, Arial,Verdana,sans-serif; text-transform: uppercase; text-align: center; line-height: 30px; text-decoration: none; margin: 5px 0 10px 0; }

Hi,

How did you add “Testimonials”? It doesn’t have in standard theme function.

Did you know about Firebug a Firefox plugin?

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843/ It will help you inspect all CSS and HTML elements, really help if you do a lot customization

The main CSS file is /css/screen.css

there is something wrong with the featured images unless i use a full res picture at least 1000px the featured image is blurry on the post. your using a thumbnail of sorts on the homepage then blowing it up on the post page and its blurry what’s the workaround making it bigger smaller less wide doesnt help, how can i show a thumbnail on the home page and show no featured image on the post page to get around this? ;(

regenerated all images. no change dug thru functions.php and lib/images.lib.php and found all image sizes if ( function_exists( ‘add_image_size’ ) ) { add_image_size( ‘blog_ft’, 620, 350, true ); add_image_size( ‘blog_single_ft’, 960, 500, true ); add_image_size( ‘related_post’, 225, 225, true ); add_image_size( ‘blog_half_ft’, 300, 300, true ); add_image_size( ‘blog_square’, 240, 240, true ); add_image_size( ‘blog_cat_ft’, 470, 370, true ); add_image_size( ‘slider_main_ft’, 660, 420, true ); add_image_size( ‘slider_ft’, 300, 210, true ); add_image_size( ‘slider_full_ft’, 960, 420, true );

but the featured image is changed to 750px and is contained within background.image element which would probably explain why changing all these values above has no effect it appears to be custom background image for each post using featured image

i can change the size in the css but cannot crop like i want to

so my questions and request after all this research is

1. how to crop featured image not just change change size 2. how to use thumbnail image for home page then selectively turn off featured image for posts 3. add a responsive background image for the entire site and use selected featured image for posts with cropping option

Sorry, I am not sure I understand you correctly, could you send me some screenshots with description please? Generally speaking, if it’s not in the demo then it’s not in the theme.

what don’t you understand screen shots are not going to help it’s how you coded the theme- you are taking featured images for posts and using the background image function to override the default image sizes set in functions.php and images.lib.php to 750px while i can adjust the height and width of the image i cannot scale nor crop the image due to how you programmed this

URGENT!!!

So i made a bunch of posts, mainly with youtube videos and one gallery using the side menu on the posts page where you just put in the youtube id etc.

Anyway, all worked fine.

Then suddenly, all posts videos (and gallery) disappeared form the posts.

The written content was still there, so was the featured image etc.

Just the media had gone.

I did early in the day change all the posts from one user to another.. would that have affected it? or is this a known issue?

Thanks

Hey Im not looking for a major change, can you just tell me where the Min-Width css code is that activates the drop down menu.. so i can make it smaller.. thanks

You have to edit the main CSS file for mobile /css/grid.css

Hi, I really need the code for the footer widget. What you gave me does not work. It does not accept the “pre” codes.

Thank you. Works great!

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

Hi there! When I try to set up content builder page, like in the “latest news”(filterable blog) example, there are only few categories to choose from, there are not displayed all of them. How can enable all categories? Thanks!

Did you have posts in other categories too? Please check, it can’t select empty category.

Thanks a lot! I didn’t realize it, this must be the cause. It is only a draft right now :)

Hi How can I disable comments in the post gallery? http://cl.ly/Tw5Q

Hi,

Provide URL of page which has issue please. Did you install the plugin? because the screen you attached, I can’t find it on demo site.

Hi Youtube Social is not Working!! links back to the Domain!! The Demo page also is NOT working!! How can I fix it?

Hi,

On demo site, it just enter # to displays all possible social icons. Did you setup your Youtube username in Theme Setting > Social Profiles?

Also provide URL of your site please.

Hi Yes I put the Youtube Channel ID but I get a Not Found Page!! That also happens in the Demo Page!! When I click the button it goes to http://themes.themegoods.com/venus_wp/UC67my-dfCl5oFeG2o8jM0nw Page Not Found!!! the link does not link Youtube neither in my site and in the Demo Page!!

Nevermind I just put the whole Youtube url in theme settings ans it Worked!!

Hi- the Link Text in the Paralax BG Image Content persists as the bright red and doesn’t follow the “Main Skin Color” in the Theme Settings. Can you push a fix for that and any other red elements in your next update?

Other issues – #2 – Mega Menu font color control? When I change the “sub menu” bg color to white, I can’t see the Mega Menu type because it isn’t influenced by the “sub menu font color” style.

3 – I can’t change the color of the “Paralax BG Image” type. I changed the “Post/Page Background Color” to white, which worked. But the type color for the Paralax BG image isn’t influenced by “Post/Page Header Font Color” so the type just stays white which doesn’t work.

Same URL as above.

3) Paralax BG Image type needs to be influenced by the Post/Page Header Font Color because its BG color is affected by Post/Page Background Color. If I change the Post/Page Background Color to white, then I can’t see the type.

Sorry it couldn’t be done using theme admin. However you can edit theme CSS file to change that
