One More question is there any way I can chose specific posts to be show in a Slider for one page and then on another page have another slider how showing different specific posts ??

Thanks

Hey,

The default featured slider can be used on any page but it’s global – the same selected featured posts shown on all pages. If you need different behavior, a 3rd party slider can be used. Post at forums for guidance.

Hi, I have problems with the menu, when I try to add it to the website in the navigation section and i select my menu press save all looks good but it doesn’t save no idea why

Hey,

That’s generally caused by not uploading the theme to theme/smart-mag/. If there’s a long named folder above smart-mag, it won’t work.

Thank you

Hi, I just purchased this theme and I’m liking it so far. I had a question regarding the slider image size. How can these images be automatically scaled to fit the canvas (of the slider)?

I tried installing the Regen. Thumbnails plugin but that didn’t change anything.

I also tried adding:
attachment-main-slider wp-post-image{
width: 100%;
height: auto;
}
& a few other CSS edits but those didn’t change anything either.

I’m sure it’s an easy solution but any guidance would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hey bmb2526,

Regen. Thumbnail will only work if you have large enough images. If your images are too small, they will have to be upscaled – but upscaling them will make them pixelated and not sharp.

Use “Thumbnail Upscale” plugin and then run “Force Regenerate Thumbnails” plugin for existing media. Again, it’s NOT recommended as upscaled images don’t look good.

Hey Gul,

We have previously assisted a customer with making it full width here: http://theme-sphere.com/forums/topic/full-width-and-boxed/ (available once bought the theme and registered).

And yes we can assist you with the width.

Cheers.

I have a question about full width layout style homepage. In page option i choose Full Width option, but on my homepage is still right sidebar with text – Nothing yet.

How can i change this and setup full width homepage?

Hey,

Try to make sure you don’t have any cache plugin running. If that doesn’t fix it and for further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.

Hello !! In this theme Smartmag . Can I change the ” MENU Bar ” At random And write what I want in Menu Bar ??? I await your answer & thank you

Hello,

Are you referring to the top bar containing “Trending:”, social icons and Search? Then yes, you can place a widget there to write any text or use shortcodes.

If you’re referring to the mega menu in navigation, there are two types of mega menus included. Category mega menu displays 2 latest posts, a featured post, and 4 sub-items from the menu constructed using normal WordPress menu creation. For links mega menu, it’s again using the normal WordPress menu system and 2nd-level items become headings and 3rd-level items fall below those headings.

Thanks. Have a good day.

Thanks.

For some reason there is a random Column in the top right of my home page. How do I remove it?

http://thedailyfeed.net/

This is a known issue with slider when you do not set images. Please edit the posts and set featured images for them.

For further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.

Cheers.

is there anyway I can remove that part and move the slider up?

That’s not a default feature but support staff should be able to assist you if you post it at support forums. Thanks.

Love the theme and got it loaded just fine. I made some initial changes to the category colors but then when I went back a day later to change the colors it defaulted all category colors to the theme default “light red”. Even when I change the theme default color it keeps this default “light red”.

I’m running the latest Wordpress and the latest Smart Mag theme file. Please help.

Also, I tried to register on the ThemeSphere support forum but I never received my password via email (not in bulk or spam folders either). Please help with this issue.

Thanks, Olivia

i want to buy this theme please let me know first, 1. can i upload my font because i will use it as a Persian language, example can i upload tahoma font or verdana that make persien font beautiful, 2. i say your theme in a website with arabic languege i saw a problem there, if you see in slider rtl the small icon is not like english it it show changes inside photo that normally it the symbol should be out example right icon should show the next photo go for another and left go back but there both icon has problem it is like this > < that normally it should be like this < > and, please tell me if i purchase i will have same problem? please answer both questions

Hey Gul,

1. You don’t have to upload tahoma or verdana fonts though as they’re default on most systems – you will just use a system font stack setting. But if you have to upload custom fonts, we can give you the custom css or you can use use any font plugin.

2. This was a bug in an older version. The newer versions don’t have this issue.

Cheers.

and one more thing i am developer and will buy it as a extended licence maybe, tell me if i use this them can i translate it ? the very important thing is home page, i have sahifa that just they have this problem i mean everything that is in english will paste in arabic automaticly it means we can not have different files in 2 language and other thing is their break news can not translate, and date can not change also, to both language, and date for posts i want to have 2 language if you can help me i will buy it today please i just want to clear everything i love this theme

Hey,

The theme is fully translatable. Can you please clarify how you want to use two languages? Do you want to have two versions (english + arabic)? Then you should use WPML for creating two versions of posts (one in arabic, one in english) – SmartMag is fully compatible with WPML.

For your second question, we do not have any issues with translating dates (in fact, they can be translated just using WordPress’s main translation). All text is translatable.

Have a good day.

Hello,

First of all: What a great theme! Well done and thanks from heart!

But I have 2 question:

1. Is it possible to hide the backend for new users? So that the registration only uses the frontend, without access to the backend? It’s important!

2. Where can I translate (bbPress) Bunyad Login Widget into german?

Thanks

abraxx

Thank you! But even on your site http://theme-sphere.com/smart-mag/ there is a redirect aft registration to the wordpress site: wp-login.php?registration=... I don’t want thant. Is it not possible to stay on the frontend for the whole registration-process?

Thanks for your answer!

Ps.: I use a german translation for bbPress. When I use the bbPress login widget, it’s translated, but in the bbPress Bunyad it’s not.

About the translation: I translated the “Bunyad Login Widget .pot” file with poedit and saved a .po and .mo. But nothing happened, the language did not changed. Is there a problem with loading the .mo file?

Thanks.

Lukas

Make sure you named them in this format: bunyad-widgets-da_DK.po / .mo

Hello, how to put my own “read more” text to blog-style listing, that I set as <!-moreCustom read more text go go->?

Hey,

The normal method is translation method mentioned in documentation. If you need to edit it manually, please ask at forums.

For further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.

Thanks.

Its not translation issue. I want custom readmore text for every post, default WP can get it from <!-more[Custom]-> tag from post text.

Seems like a bug. Please discuss it further to get a solution at our Support Forums. This is a pre-sales question area. Thanks for understanding.

Prepurchase Question:

In your demo i don’t see a shortcode or a specific widget/plug-in for the social icon or social counter (i see only for share the article). In this theme there is someting for use and tracking the social or i must use a external plug-in? (how many followers or how many like ecc…). And for twitter and facebook i must use his official plug-in or have you a custom of this plug-in for your theme?

Thanks

Hey,

There are social icons shortcodes and social share buttons, but there aren’t social counters included by default. If you need social counters, there are many plugin choices available that work without issues. For sidebar counter widget, we have one that we particularly like and it matches the design – and we have some custom styling for it (available at forums – sticky topic).

Cheers.

Prepurchase Question:

Does this theme support different ad widget areas for different pages e.g category archive page, single post page and homepage

Hey,

You can use different sidebars (widget areas) on different page so ad widgets can be different between pages. For even more advanced control, widget logic plugin can be used.

Cheers.

Hello ! :)

I intend to use this theme with Issuem plugin. So i have a question : does the homepage is a specific template (that must be set in WP settings/reading/homepage/set homepage (which i need) or the home must be setup as “latest posts” ?

Thanks :)

(by the way is there any trace of the timthumb thing in this theme ? ;) )

Hey,

The Homepage is built using the Page Builder (or Shortcodes if you prefer that) and then set as the static front page in WordPress Settings. You don’t need to have the latest posts on your home.

SmartMag uses WordPress’s native image resizing so there’s no timthumb.

Cheers.

great !

Thanks for your answer it fits the needs :)

i have a question from my client who use this theme,

client- ’’is there a way to get the search bar to appear at the top when this is viewed on a mobile device? if so how would this be accomplished and can it be made sticky? thanks.”

thank you for your time.

Hey,

Point your client to this topic: http://theme-sphere.com/forums/topic/move-search-and-social-media-buttons-to-main-navigation/

Better yet, ask your client to register a Support Forums account for you as technical support is only handled there.

Thanks.

Is it possible to set up ads for single page ?

Hey,

If you’re talking about the single posts, then you can add ads before/after post using a plugin. For single pages, you can either the same plugin or use the page builder for further control.

Thanks. Have a good day.

From Where I can set up ads for single page except front page ? please I need to know it. help me answering the question.

If you have bought the theme and for support, please register and create a topic at our Support Forums. Thanks.
