I’ve found how to do a Gallery format Post… it has to be creating a post, format gallery, insert a gallery, but selecting Link=file; if not, it doesn’t show the ‘slider’ viewing full post.

Is it possible to define pictures of gallery-format-post-header ‘slider’ max width or max height? it resizes my pictures and makes it bigger than I upload it, and I wanted to have this kind of slider with the size the pictures are.

Thanks in advance. Regards.

I know that there’s a dynamic resizing in order to adapte the box width to page width, to be responsive, etc. but maybe it’s possible to fix the images of gallery-format-post-header ‘slider’ max width or max height and ‘fill’ with solid color the rest of box header slider…

Hi,

please send us private msg and we’ll send you further instructions.

Another question :-) I would like to disable Ubergrid bydefault gallery system, because I want to use lightbox for galleries… how can I do it? Thanks. Regards.

Forget about it :-) I’ve found where to ‘deactivate’ swipebox in order to use Lightbox …

Hello, For some reason, even though I have published 4 test posts, only one appears on the homepage feed. I deactivated all installed plugins in case they were the issue, but this did not fix the issue. Could this be an issue with the theme? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks

Hi,

please go through Documentation or send us WP login data so that we can check?

Best

I have had a look through the documentation but couldn’t see anywhere I could have gone wrong. I can send you login details, though is there a more private way of doing giving you this info than on this comment thread? Thanks

Yes, you can send us private msg via ThemeForest / Facebook or through our Website www.pukkathemes.com.

Another question: is it possible to change the position of “meta” (category, date, format) in grid boxes? It is in bottom:20 I think, but I liked to have it under the title, like inside Posts…I think you call it brick-meta?

Thanks in advance. Regards.

Yes, you can change the position of all ‘box’ elements if you have basic PHP and CSS knoweldge.

You should copy files from ‘ubergrid/pukka/modules/grid-layout/views’ to ubergrid/pukka-overrides/grid-layout/views/’ (create this foldere structure) and make changes there. That way your changes won’t be lost when you do theme upgrade.

Best

Thanks.. Finally I did a backup and worked directly over “ubergrid/pukka/modules/grid-layout/views”. I was able to chage postion of Meta (category, date and format) and put it before Title. :-) Thanks!

Hi guys! First of all Thnx for your superb work!! I’ve purchased Ubergrid, and it rocks!! :-)

I’ve some doubts, lets begin with the first one: is it possible to have the same Home page Right Side Bar I’ve, In categories with grid layout selected?

Thanks in advance. Regards!

Hi,

thanks for your comments.

It’s not possible to have right sidebar on categories with grid layout.

This is something we’ll include with next updates.

Best

Hello how do I have my right sidebar show up on my pages and posts? On my laptop it shows them but on my iPad it puts them under the pages/posts. I turned off the responsive section as you suggested before and even if I change the width of the main content (so there is lots of space for the right sidebar) it still goes under my posts and pages. I have the width of the content set to 620px at the moment but even when I set it to 520px or lower nothing changes.

Here is a sample page from my website… http://robcherrytennis.com/index.php/write-an-article/

Thanks

Hi,

do you have latest Theme installed?

best

Yes I do thanks.

Hi

I am planning on having a lot of multi-paged posts on my site. The posts are being split into multiple pages using the <!-nextpage-> code, which automatically creates links to the pages within the posts. I was wondering whether there would be anyway to increase the font size of these page links as currently they are quite small Or do you know of a way to implement next and previous buttons to navigate the pages within the post instead? Thank you

Hi, prev/next page links have the same size as other post content. If you want to style them you should add some arguments to he <?php wp_link_pages(); ?> (in single.php). All about modifying prev/next page links can be found here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Styling_Page-Links

If you have any problems send us a private message and we’ll guide you through.

Hi guys. Great theme, my site is becoming very cool.

I have a question : I really like the featured images scrolling in the Gallery Post Format. Is it possible to keep the sliding photos but without the photos or the photo galleries in the body of the post?

Thank you Francesco

Hi, by default slider is populated by images uploaded from post edit screen.

If you would like to have some images in the slider and other in the gallery (in the post content) you could upload gallery images separately through media library and then, when editing post, make gallery from using them. All images uploaded while editing post will be displayed in the post slider.

Another solution would be to modify template file to separate images by some criteria.

Hello,

I can’t use the front page manager. When I want to add post/page, the box doens’t show any post or page of the site. Maybe I don’t set correctly the front page setting setting, if the checkbox “Use Front Page Manager” is check, other checkbox must be uncheck ?

Thank you,

Hi, can you send us a privage message with your login crendetials and we’ll take a closer look.

Hey

I love this theme and it’s truely great!

But I was wondering if you are planning on implementing a grid view for search results?

I’ve attempted this myself, e.g. here’s an example.

But the problem is that when you reach the bottom of the search results, the infinite scroll loads content from the main page :impatient:

So yeh, do you recommend anything for this or do you have any plans to implement it yourselves?

thanks again and the theme is truely awesome!

Hi, currently we don’t plan do implement grid layout for search results, but that shouldn’t be hard to do.

Send us a private message and we’ll send you a Ubergrid child theme with that modification.

Hi Guys,

I’m trying to hide the title and controls of my embedded youtube videos. I have inserted the iframe code to hide them but they still seem to be showing. I am viewing it on a windows laptop in Chrome/IE11.

<iframe width=”560” height=”315” src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/lysTTxuWrSg?autohide=1&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0” allowfullscreen> </iframe>

You can see the videos on http://robcherrytennis.com/

Thanks

It’s ok I sorted it, I took out the video link from the Media URL field.

Hey Guys,

I tried downloading the new version and it couldn’t be installed because

“The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet”

Can you send that please? Thanks :)

Hi,

this is a common issue with WordPress http://support.envato.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/269

Please follow the steps below to rectify this issue:

1. Download the final zip file from your downloads page.

2. Unzip the final zip file; you should now have a final download folder.

3. Do NOT upload the final download folder. Open up the final download folder.

4. Browse the contents and find the actual theme folder. If you look inside the theme folder, you will see a “style.css” file. This is how you know you have found the theme folder.

5. Using an FTP client, upload ONLY the theme folder to your “wp-content/themes” folder.

6. Login to your WordPress admin panel and activate the theme.

Hi. Pre-sale question again.

Is it possible to make certain posts “sticky/featured” so they will be always on the homepage?

Thanks

Hi,

yes, there is a way to make certain posts always on the Homepage via Front Paga Manager.

You can also pin some posts, so that they always keep same position (even if you adding new posts)

Best

I’m not familiar with the Front Page Manager, can you keep the same layout as on your demo page with it, and infinite scroll? And “pinning” posts, is that via Front page manager as well or I could do that when posting something and the homepage is infinite scroll? Thanks

Yes, you can choose posts/pages, add categories, custom content, ... And also you can pin boxes.

Is RTL supported ?

Regards

Hi, currently RTL isn’t supported.

Hello,

I’d like to do the following:

- Posts within a category have got /category/ in the url. Where can I rename this to ie. ”/kategorie/”?

- Is it possible to have a search form in the left menu somehow?

Ronald

Hi, setting a ‘category base’ is a wordpress feature. You can change it from (wordpress backend): Settings -> Permalinks (there is a ‘category base’ field: http://d.pr/i/NzSX).

You could put search form in the left sidebar, but it requires editing template file. Drop us a private message if you feel comfortable with that and we’ll guide you through.

Hi Great theme..

But I can´t save the theme page when editing Favicon etc. ? What have i done wrong…

rgds; Michael

Hi, that really shouldn’t be an issue (favicon is just an option like any other in Theme settings).

Can you can send us a private message with a login credentials and we’ll take a look.

Hi, I have a problem with vimeo video. I have a “video” section with posts who are in “video” category. The video wrap is shorter than post wrap.

http://www.portfolio.lasagnuz.it/category/video/

I regularly bought this theme with themeforest pack.

Can you help me please?

Thanks. Kiara.

Hi, you didn’t just paste vimeo link in custom field, but you’ve used embed code right?

If you are embeding video in that way you should set width of iframe to be at least 695px (this is done just before you copy embed code on vimeo.com). The thing is, if video has greater width it will be reduced, if video has smaller width it will not be stretched.

Or you could just paste vimeo link, here: http://d.pr/i/w0V7, and embed code will be generated automically ;)

Hello, I found a bug, when you have an article with YouTube video, there is a one single bracket under the video, creating extra space. You can see it here: http://www.silainternetu.cz/marketing/doritos-locos-taco

WOW! I just found out, that this problem is based in YouTube. When you genetare embed video from YouTube, there is that extra bracket there.

Embed code from youtube:

<iframe width=”560” height=”315” src=”//www.youtube.com/embed/amyoaSLwwVU” frameborder=”0” allowfullscreen></iframe>)

So, YouTube should fix it. Omg this will takes a years :D

Anyway Embed video, fixed the problem. Thx a lot for a super-fast reply and solution. You are the best!

You’re welcome ;)

I’ve also noticed a problem I could use help solving: there is a bug when displaying a number of posts in a grid with post-format = ‘gallery’. The galleries that are initially loaded are displayed correctly in a lightbox. The galleries loaded by infinite-scroll do not have a working lightbox treatment.

For example see http://riprowan.com/category/photography/

This is really strange, because I’ve just tested lightbox reinitilization (after infinite scroll is triggered) on both our development and official demo site and it works.

Can you send us a private message so we can debug this issue in more detail?

Hi – I’m really loving the theme. I’ve needed to make some customizations which perhaps might help others which I’ll share here.

We liked the look of the “random” Front Page with its mix of sizes and the freshest content, but wanted to control the order of the sizes using a predefined, repeating pattern.

We modified /modules/grid-layout/include/functions.php ‘pukka_grid_box_size’ and changed the “random” setting to instead cycle through a set of predefined sizes based on the position in the WP_Query:

if( $box_size == 'random' ){
    $predefined_box_sizes = array('big', 'big', 'medium', 'medium', 'medium', 'medium', 'big', 'big', 'big', 'medium', 'medium', 'medium' etc..);
    $box_size = $predefined_box_sizes[$myqcount];
}

By passing in a counter we are able to achieve a nicely-varied-looking feed that never looks “wrong” or “chaotic” the way the random feed sometimes looked.

Ideally the user could configure a settings file in the grid-layout/includes directory that specifies different configurable options (configurable by editing the settings file) and would choose this layout in the theme settings (instead of choosing “random”). Or maybe the user could enter / configure this sort of layout in the theme settings UI.

Hi, thanks for the modification :) I think this is the first comment regarding ‘random’ order modification.

Does order looks nice really depends on screen resolution, or the number of columns grid layout takes (which can be set in Theme settings), so probably it should be user defined. Do you think that textarea in Theme settings in which user could enter comma seperated box sizes would be good enough?

Best

P.S. Did you remov ‘pukka_grid_box_size’ filter and then added your own? Just want to know if you had any problems doing this modification and if there is a need to make this function pluggable also.
