I’ve just realised there have been two updates since I purchased and installed the theme. I have downloaded the new version. But how do I actually install it?

Hi, thank you for a great theme! It’s working like a charm, except for the Google fonts. When I change the body font family in the configuration settings, save and clear the cache, I can see the newly selected font is added to the googlefont link in the head section. The new font is also added to the css. However, the font is not displayed, instead Helvetica is used (the second one in the css font stack). Tested in Chrome & Firefox on a Mac. Am I doing something wrong or missing a step? Thanks for any pointers.

in my particular case the problem is with this url:

http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300|Josefin+Slab:500

if you open it in the browser you will only see the css for Open Sans, not Josefin Slab. When I remove :500 it does work.

I guess the weight has to be an existing weight for it to work, so in the future I’ll check the weight on the Google Fonts site before saving the configs.

Hi vierkantemeter, sorry for the late reply. You are right, the weight has to be an existing weight, I’ll add this to the description of the theme option in the next update.

Hello!

I want to add Cyrillic font, but I did not find where to update the font in CSS file.

I want to add:

<link href=’http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Open+Sans+Condensed:300&subset=latin,cyrillic-ext' rel=’stylesheet’ type=’text/css’>

Hi yogaman, please drop me an email through the form on my profile page

Hey, great theme but I have the same problem as chico11mbit and the question hasn’t been answered yet:

Hi, Do you think it’s possible to fix the main navigation issues with iPad landscape? The problem ist, that no submenu can be selected because after a touch on the ipad the main menu above the submenus opens immediately.

As they say, currently sub-menu pages can’t be accessed because clicking on the parent link immediately redirects to that page. Do you have a solution for this yet?

Hi, that’s great to hear. How soon do you expect that update to be released

During this week, sorry for the delay but I’m also fixing other things!

Any update on when this will be ready? Been waiting a few weeks now. Thanks.

Hi, I can’t get the package localy in package manager. I put zip file under core/packages am i doing it wrong ? I am under Modx Revolution 2.2.14.

Hi singaii, you are doing it right. Are you following the documentation provided with the theme?

I can’t find any documentation provided with the .zip. I know this is a themepackager generated file and i read some documentation on it. I have tested .zip on different modx instalation, both on my nas and others online servers. i have reach the installation sequence once and it did almost nothing. i have tested on modx 2.2.5 to modx 2.2.14

Drop me an email through the form on my profile page, I’ll send you the documentation.

Another bug: When pressing the show-previous-page button on safari i get a blank page. When i delete the cache in safari it works.

ok. got it. it is the preloader. when i deactivate it the problem disappears. Perhaps you have a hint?

Hi, Do you think it’s possible to fix the main navigation issues with iPad landscape? The problem ist, that no submenu can be selected because after a touch on the ipad the main menu above the submenus opens immediately.

I’m looking at it right now, I’ll let you know

nice theme! video homepage isn’t working in FF.

On ipad landscape the navigationbar on the left and footer socialmedia icons are on the same position. hard to click the Blog button!

..You could restyle the copyrights. .social-nav p {padding:20px;}

The main menu of the live preview has too many entries for the actual design of the theme, I’m thinking of other solutions to this problem

Does this theme includes several example resources with all necessary supporting files and elements? It might be helpful if your description made this clear.

Hi sottwell, yes the theme includes all the demo content. I’ll add it tn the description, thanks :)

Just want to mention that your support is very poor. I didn’t get any response from you for one month although the theme doesn’t work with SqlSrv at all and only partly works with MySQL because of outdated module versions, not even a explanation or at least a “I’m working on it.”.

I’m so sorry greensolid, I replied to your email but I must have missed your reply. Could you be so kind to send me again your latest email? if you haven’t already solved the problem with the theme.

I’ve just resent the complete conversation, please also check your spam / trash folder.

Hi, is it possible to modify the slider time in portfolio? Perhaps it is possible to change the blending effects? (sliding or blending). Also a little timer overlay in the upper right corner would be nice, because than the sliding effect would not be such a surprise for the viewer :-) And if there would be a mechanism, that forbid the direct download it would be awesome.

btw. great work from you :-)

Do you already have the blog set up using the Articles extra?

Hi kzimarik. No, the blog doesn’t use Articles extra. It mainly uses getResources and Quip.

So is making a blog post still as easy compared to using Articles?

You only have to create a simple resource with a specific template :)

Hello G10v3,

I’ve installed the template but I can see only the Home. When I click on the menu links I receive following message:

The requested URL /modx/about was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

This occurs to all other pages: http://www.rohling.com.br/modx/column-layout/ http://www.rohling.com.br/modx/blog-with-sidebar/ etc.

Hi bahienrohl, thanks for purchasing Base. It’s an issue with Friendly URLs/.htaccess file, that happens when you install the theme in a subfolder. Please drop me an email through the form on my profile page.

Thanks for the help. Super product, very good support!!! Everything working well!

Thank you very much bahienrohl! :)

Very cool template, I added it to my own website spark-it.nl. However there seems to be a bug with IE11 under windows 7 and 8. Clicking the contact page twice will deliver me a path like www.spark-it.nl/contact/contact, leading to a not found page. I have tried to nail it down, but since it is working in every other browser, it seems to be an bug.

Your comments are highly appreciate

When I look at the preview here on themeforest and if I remove the frame on the preview it doesn’t work..

I’m on Chrome Version 33.0.1750.152 on a mac (Mavericks).

Can you please drop me an email through the form on my profile page, if you can provide me some screenshots or better explain the issue!

Very nice template! One question, why doesn’t the filter not work on the portfolio page?

Thanks! :) The filter is working fine here, which browser are you using?

Nice Template, I might be able to use it for a client project. I have a few questions: - Is it possible to diable the load circle? - Will it work for a person with no JS enabled (does not have to be pretty)? - Will the needed JS files be included so I can host them (I want minimal cross site dependencies)?

Hi der-da, thanks for your interest in Base!

Yes, you can disable the loading animation. With JS disabled the home slider / video will not work, also the contact / portfolio pages. Actually all the js files, except jquery and google maps, are included with the theme :)

What about this roundin preloader? Is it modx plugin or smth else?

Hi goodfed,

It’s a custom preloader, with theme options to enable / disable it, change the background color and the animated gif.

Hi. Is there a Quickstart?

Hi vignirmar, thanks for your interest :)

I’m not sure what you mean. The theme comes with a full live preview content importer, so you can easily understand how it was made.

Yes, I mean sample data like in the live preview

So yes, there is a quickstart :)

Can you upload some larger screenshots of the back-end management interface?

Hi adamwintle,

You can take a look here. I’ll update the page with new detailed screenshots tomorrow morning. :)

Here you’ll find the updated screenshots of the back-end. Here some screenshots of page/template options.
