Hello!

Strongly recommended 5/5 stars!

Great theme! Very happy with the purchase! It has been a great inspiration and I’ve used it in a relaunch of http://www.tasmaniangeographic.com. Take a look!

Can I throw a few questions in?

1) How can I have a KML google earth file called up in the embedded map? I’d like to have multiple placemarks but cannot figure out how to do it.

2) Is it possible to use shortcodes in the page builder text boxes?

3) Are there shortcodes that can replicate the column layouts of the page builders?

4) This video post formats are lovely when you click into them, but on the front page masonry I’d like the featured image to show up instead of the embedded video. How can I set this up?

5) I can’t see any output for the secondary image box…where does this show up?

6) In the text boxes and several other text displays, the theme does not recognise blank lines between paragraphs and displays only a single line break. Is there a way around this?

7) Can you email me the pieces for the tag masonry layout?

Thanks again! Good work!

Hi,

we can’t send you customization for grid layout for tags here, because we need to send you this customization.

For this 4) This video post formats are lovely when you click into them, but on the front page masonry I’d like the featured image to show up instead of the embedded video. How can I set this up?

You can do it only like this

1. Create Video Post Format

2. Create Link Post Format with Feature Image which is linked to Video Post Format, and publish this on your homepage

This is the only way without any customization.

We’ve already answered number 5 and 7, for other questions we’ll send you an email and we will also answer here.

Hi! I figured out #4 in a more elegant fashion…. in the child theme created =ubergrid-child/pukka/modules/grid-layout/views/box-video.php using a copy of box.php.

It creates masonry with featured/secondary images, and has the great video embeds in the post display! Looks great!

Is this theme compatible with Wordpress 3.9? I’d like to know before upgrading. Thank you!

Hi, we’ve tested theme with early beta version and a release candidate of 3.9 and everything worked fine.

Currently we’re doing another testing round with official 3.9 release and so far we haven’t encountered any problems, so it should be safe to upgrade.

Would it be possible to add a widget area in the footer or add widgets in the sidebar on the left? (I saw a similar question, but no public solution :) )

Hi, yes it’s possible to add sidebar and footer widget areas. It’s not that hard to add them and it’s advised that this modification is done in the child theme.

We’ve done this modification, added footer widget area, and we can send you a child theme just send us a private message. But you’ll have to do some basic CSS styling for those widgets.

Best

Hi, sent you a private message but no response yet. Could you het back to me please? (after Easter of course :) )

Hi,

yes, sorry we’ll send you this asap.

Hi, i really want to purchase this theme and wanted to know can i recreate the look of the hamepage with pages not blog posts? please let me know

Hi,

thanks for comments.

You can add Pages or custom Boxes on homepage, so it’s possible to have homepage without posts.

Best

Hi, planning to buy the theme. Just two questions beforehand.

1. I want to include a form with “Title, Name and Video Url” on the site with witch visitors can make a video post. Before it is published, I want to be able to view the post in the backend. Is this possible? How would I archive this.

Even better would be if I could include more valuables on the form, of which all could be displayed in the backend, but not all are visible in the post.

2. Can I use a custom font (e.G. http://www.underware.nl/fonts/unibody/download/) Thank You, Uli

Hi,

thanks for comments

1. for this feature you’ll need plugin or a little bit of customization, because we don’t have this possibility within the theme

2. there are two ways to include other fonts (via CSS or via plugin)

Best

Hi, Can we use/add shortcodes (from thirdparty plugins) into page builder? Thx, Eric

Hi,

we will enabled this with next update, so it will be possible.

Hi,

I bought the theme in a bundle, but am hoping you can help me…

Suddenly a share button has appeared throughout my website and in random spots. Is there any way to move it, or ensure that it is only near the bottom of each post/page?

You’ll see here it’s at the top of the contact page, rather strange… http://ashleighburskey.com/connect/

Thank you, Ashleigh

Hi, this share button is from a third party plugin, it looks like it’s called sharedaddy, and it’s not bundled with a theme.

You should try to change plugin settings and consult plugin documentation or contact plugin author.

Best

Hi guys, i use your theme on my website and he looks awesome! I have a problem. I want the posts from homepage to be in random order not in date order. It’s this posible?

Hi,

thanks for your comment.

Unfortunately, It’s not possible to have homepage in random order.

Hi there! With YouTube videos, is there a way to display a thumbnail on the front page rather than the whole embedded video?

Hi,

with Video post type, you are showing embed video (YouTube, Vimeo and etc).

For example, you can use Standard Post Type and show Image only.

Best

Ok thank you. But with Standard Post Type, will I still be able to embed the video in the same way, or will I need to embed it in the body text?

Hi,

you’ll need to embed it in the body text.

Best

Hi Guys, is there a way to use the home boxes layout on other pages? Lets says im creating a new menu item wich is a page showing a post category…. i would like to show this items in the same way as in the home and not listed as it is showing now. Is it possible?

Is there a way to filter the home boxes by category as a portfolio? like you are showing, hiding and rearranging items?

Best regards

Hi,

yes, you can use Grid Layout for category pages. You just need to enable this option from Theme Settings, and after that you can choose for which categories you’ll have Grid Layout.

Best

Hi, i bought the theme in a bundle, i cant find where to set grid layout for categories, was that part of a theme update? I need some directions how to set custom box sizes individually: small, medium, big. i need to control the sizes. best regards.

Hi,

do you have documentation file?

For grid layout for Categories, you should buy Standard License and then you’ll have possibility to download latest updates and you’ll have full support.

Best

My site will not update on saves, please help

Hi,

can you send us WordPress login data and URL via private msg?

Have you tried with default Theme?

Best

no reply

Hi,

we’ve replied to you. This isn’t issue with Theme, because we tried to change to default Theme but it doesn’t working.

You should consult your hosting provider or you should start with new hosting.

Best

Good day! Great theme! Tell me how to add to this topic social network vk.com (like, share, button)? and how to use ordinary fonts?

Hi,

Direct audio player in grid mode Hi Pukka I’m trying to have a direct visible/playable audio player from the front page or categories in grid view. It works with embed links such as soundcloud, etc. but the player does not show if I add media from the media library. If I don’t use grid mode, the player is available directly. Is this a limitation or am I doing something wrong? (I use the add media button from WP)

Thx, Eric

Hi Eric,

can you share more details with us with private msg?

Audio post is suitable for embedding SoundCloud and etc, but if you can send us URL fo your Web site and more details we”ll check this with our development team.

Best

Hi did you get my e-mail ?

Hi,

yes, we’ll send you answer shortly

Hi Pukka, my client and I loved UberGrid so much we upgraded from the bundle to the full version. One question though – is there any way to reduce the amount of white space between paragraphs in the body copy? I’m not a coder so I’m nervous about messing with the .css without talking to you first. Please help? Charlie

Hi Charlie, just to let you know that we fixed ‘select’ issue in latest theme update (rolled out today). It’s not autocomplete (yet), but you shouldn’t have scroll problems anymore.

Best

Hi Pukka! I checked out the font selection in them settings / typography – wow what a difference! All the fonts come up, it’s super fast and much easier to use without the frame/scrollbar thingy. Thank you for taking on the feedback and sorting it out. Love your work!

Hi,

you are welcome:)

If you find our Theme satisfying, please rate it via ThemeForest:)

Thanks

Hi friends! I’m testing my site with Gtmetrix or Pingdom and ever I get ‘bad score’ on Google fonts calls, caching and expiring. I wan to use local fonts instead Google external url ones…

I’ve read how to @font-face in CSS, loading local fonts I’ve converted with squirrel font face generator, in ttf and woff, etc. . But I don’t know how to select this local fonts I’ve uploaded and defined in CSS throught @font-face.

Where can I find and select my local fonts in order to be used instead Google ones? In Theme configuration -> Typography -> Text fonts, etc? I don’t find how to do it!

Thanks! Regards!

Forget last post. I’ve been able to use default font without using Google ones (selected none ( “Select” ) in Typography. But I still can see a Google font external call to Google:

“http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto%3A400%2C300%2C700&subset=latin%2Clatin-ext%2Ccyrillic&ver=3.8.1”

Roboto. Is posible to stop using this as an external font and to use it as a local font in order to save an external font (that comes withou cache compatibility, no expire headers, etc. etc. ) and it slows down the page (some ms. :-) )

I’ve tried to add @font-face to Custom CSS but it continues going to Google fonts in order to load Roboto (even Roboto font is in the wp-content/themes/ubergrid/fonts folder..)

Thanks!

Hi, Roboto in the ‘wp-content/themes/ubergrid/fonts’ folder is just for backup purposes (so user can embed it if something goes wrong with google web fonts service).

Roboto, which is downloaded from google web fonts, is, obviously, downloaded from other server then yours so that HTTP connection is not slowing down downloading resources from your site (you can google “server http connection limit”) and because font is not used it doesn’t really slow rendering of your page.

If you want to save some ms you could: 1) activate ubergrid child theme, create functions.php file and copy ‘pukka_scripts’ function from parent theme’s functions.php file (that way you’ll override it). Then just comment out, or delete, this line:
wp_enqueue_style('google-roboto-font', '//fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Roboto:400,300,700&subset=latin,latin-ext,cyrillic');

2) comment out or delete that line in ubergrid’s functions.php file (just a note, if you disable it this way you’ll have to do it every time you upgrade your theme).

Best

P.S. You’ll have to have latest version of theme installed to do this.

Thanks! I’ve created a new functions.php in child theme with the pukka_scripts function with that line commented. It works. Thanks again.

PUKKA vs. WPML

Hi guys, using WMPL plugin pop up menu is not working properly. I have chosen option pop up menu but it works only for default web page language /En/ for second language /Sk/ pop up menu is not active. What can be problem. Thank you in advance.

Hi,

we’ve already sent you an email for languages with screen shot how to set different settings for different language.

If you have more questions please send us private msg.

Hello,

Thank you, I figured out my question about font.

I just need to know if I am not able to post videos on a page? When I type in the html code, it shows the code and not the video. {Fyi I know that I how to post video on a post using the video format, but no such format seems to exist for the page.}

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

How can I change my website to this: http://themeforest.net/item/ubergrid-responsive-grid-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/6383212

When you open that url on a mobile device, the right widgets (menu) will appear on the right as they should. Also if you zoom in, every thing can be zoomed in correctly.

If you open my website on a mobile device, www[.]gewoonvoorhem[.]nl the right widgets will be placed under the article and not on the right. Also if you zoom in, everything will get mixed up.

Kind regards,

Pascal

HI,

we are not sure what do you think. When you open themeforest’s link then Ubergid theme isn’t responsive, like it is here http://demo.pukkathemes.com/ubergrid/

If you want to turn of this responsive mode then send us private msg and we can then help you.

Best

Exactly, I want my website to be unresponsive, but not messed up on a mobile device. I deleted the ‘Viewport’ line in the Header file, it disables the responsive, but if you zoom in it will mess up and the right menu is at the bottom of the page.

I send you guys a private msg, thank you!

Hello,

I purchased this theme and there is nothing in the documentation folder. How can I go about obtaining this information?

Thank you!

Thank you!!

I am now trying to change the font and font size in the body of a page. I’ve successfully changed the font; however the text box is changing my size code:

For example the following is the code I am attempting to use:

Maternity

The font is changing successfully, but I am not being allowed to change the size of the font. Is there a specific code that need be used for this template, or is there another way for me to change the size of the words within a page.

Hi,

please send us prive msg.

Do you have latest version of Theme installed?

Best

Hello, I have installed WPML plugin and after logo.jpg issue rise up. Page shows php errors in function.php Logo is not displayed correctly. If I want to use plain text logo font setting is to large and crossing over sidebar. See example on http://lonelygallery.com/fotograficke-projekty-dokumentarna-fotografia/. Thank you for help.

Hi, what PHP errors are shown? Can you send us a private message wit errors or login credentials so we can take a closer look? Also, logo, like any other option, needs to be set for every language separetly.

As for the ‘plain text logo’ paste this into “Custom CSS” box (Appereance -> Theme settings -> Style): #sidebar-top #logo-text{ word-break: break-all; }

If you want also to have smaller text add this (and tweak font-size value): #sidebar-top #logo-text{ word-break: break-all; font-size: 32px; }

Best

excuse me, how can I send private message?

Hi,

you should have this option on the right bottom corner, just bellow our Profile.
