Great theme!

I have a little question about this theme. for i Purchase this theme.

Is it possible, to change the video, to a normal blog post without a video ? Just like a nog video magazine.

thnks for the replay!

Idaniel

Hi Idaniel,
Yes. it’s possible. When adding/editing posts, you will see that there is a box in the right named “Format”.

Choose between Standard, Gallery, Video or Audio. When you choose post format to be Standard , it will show blog post.

Hello,

i like your professional theme. And i want to use this for my web site. But i want to use my own design. So do you use your theme code configuration to my design. Do you have a service for this with a special price?

Want to purchase this theme but we have one question: Do users can directly upload their own videos?

Thanks.

Hi

Thanks

Oh great! Thanks!

Case closed.

In the actual post part below a video, how can I automatically have everything appear without having to click the arrow to drop down the rest? I don’t want to only have the excerpt showing. I’d love to have the whole thing up. Thanks!

Hi
This theme do not have that function at this time. In next update, we will have a theme option to enable/disable that feature, pls wait for update.

Hello,

The social icons on the header should be opening the links in a new tab/window. Right now the only way to do it is to manually change the source code, isn’t it?

You can try as follows:

Open file “header-navigation.php”, then go to about line 181 and fix code:
"<a class="social-icon<?php echo $topnav_style=='dark'?' maincolor1 bordercolor1hover bgcolor1hover' :'' ?>" href="<?php echo $link ?>"><i class="fa fa-<?php echo $social ?>" /></a>" = <a class="social-icon<?php echo $topnav_style=='dark'?' maincolor1 bordercolor1hover bgcolor1hover' :'' ?>" href="<?php echo $link ?>"><i class="fa fa-<?php echo $social ?>" target="_blank" /></a>

Cheers
Cactustheme

I can change the source code. But I think it would be good to have it like that by default, on future versions.

Regards, Paulo

Sure we will put it into development plan. Thank you for the suggestion.

Fix this bug (http://i.imgur.com/jST7Evc.png) with fixed menu in boxed layout :D

Hi

Thanks for using this Theme and for notifying the bug.

We will update fixed version on tomorrow. If you can’t wait, you could add this custom CSS to theme options:

@media (min-width: 768px){ .boxed-container #top-nav.fixed-nav{ max-width: 750px; } } @media (min-width: 992px){ .boxed-container #top-nav.fixed-nav{ max-width: 970px; } } @media (min-width: 1200px){ .boxed-container #top-nav.fixed-nav{ max-width: 1170px; } }

Hello I have another ticket: 192505 which is open from 6th April. I know you were not working yesterday. But please prioritize this and look in to the issue. I have issues in getting the smart content boxes displayed in the front page. I have re installed the WP, the whole theme etc.

Ticket answered. Sorry for the delay.

Purchased this theme yesterday and I couldn’t get it to work at all or get it to look like the demo sample that attracted me to purchasing it…

The documentation on setting this theme up in my opinion is very bad..

I am trying to move my site from detube to this.. i configured detube withn 6hrs and i have spent almost 24hrs on this with no progress, can adjust the video thumbnails, arrange/place what to appear on the home page even common setting up the player as well.

Hi,

Thanks for purchasing this theme.

Please submit ticket to http://cactusthemes.ticksy.com and leave admin account (please remember to make the ticket private) we will help you with initial setup.

Thanks Cactusthemes

Hi,

1. What is pre-loading effect?

2. I can´t see any difference with flat mode enable. What does that option?

Hi, thanks for purchasing our theme

1. Pre-loading effect will show pre-defined animation when user’s browser is loading your website

2. The Flat mode enabled will make the website header look flatter (no gradient, and small changes in the font size)

Regards Cactusthemes

Will you be adding woo commerce or user front-end video submission anytime soon?

Hi, thank you interested in our theme

1. Sorry that we do not have any woo-commerce integration plan for this theme.

2. We are working on front-end video submission now but it will take some time. That is why we do not have a fixed release date for this feature. However, you can consider using contact form for submission (admin review is needed) at the moment.

Cheers

Hi. I am very interested in purchasing this theme, but I have a couple questions.

1, Can you change the categories from different video formats to different video categories instead? For example: Youtube, Vimeo to sports, entertainment

2, Can you restrict the ability to post videos?

Hi,

Thanks for interested in this themes.

1, Of course, it’s just categories’ name

2. Only users have levels: author, editor, admin.. can post videos

Regards

CactusThemes

Hi, one pre-sale question. Does it support all embed codes not just the most popular like youtube/vimeo/dailymotion. I need other iframe and script videos.

More regarding videos, i need to add sometimes more than one video in one post. How does it looks like then. Any example or possible demo to see from inside ?

Is it possible for the home page except all those slider, to have except it like on youtube/vimeo page top carousel ?

Thanks

Hi,

It is strange, the top area works normally on our test devices. Can you provide some details? Screenshot for example?

Thanks

Cactusthemes

I dont know how to take a screenshot with my mobile Samsung S2. Anyway, it takes more than a half minute to load. I tried with more sliders. I shows the first image then below is the black space until the other stories from slider are shown up. Then stories are shown , and they 10-20 seconds later they are sorted on the normal way.

Hi
Maybe because we have used images demo with height of resolution. You should view on another device eg. iphone.
Thanks CactusThemes – Envato Elite Author
