hi awesome ThemeSphere, how about the leaderboard ad? is it just to add “advertisement widget” in the body of the home page? or there’s another way you’re doing it as in demo data? alos pls advice how could we use professional ads server like google and other and manage it nicely in your theme? regards…
Hey,
Yes, the leaderboard ad is added via Advertisement widget. You can use your ad code from Google in this same widget.

Hi, nice theme indeed. I’ve installed and setup on my website. Everyuthing is OK except for one thing : comments display on reverse order, from the newest on top of the list to the oldest at the bottom. I want it to be sorted from the oldest to the newest. I can I do this ?
Hey,
It’s a default WordPress setting under Settings > Discussion (“Comments should be display with the [older] ...” – see here).
For further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.

Ok, thank you! It is weird because I never changed anything in these settings and comments have always displayed in the right order before I switched to this theme.
Hi, My homepage slider isn’t showing the post images on the right of the featured posts. If i set it to use all posts it works but set to only use featured nothing is displayed and on code inspect the element is empy
http://www.theomexistence.com/Hey,
Please make sure you have at least 8 posts marked as “Featured Slider Post?” (while adding/editing a post) as explained here.

Hi, i have one question:
- how can i create the two columns highlight block using shortcodes? i’m currently using this code
[columns]
[column size="half"]
[highlights cat="news" posts=2 /]
[/column]
[column size="half"]
[highlights cat="fatwa" posts=2 /]
[/column]
[/columns]
but thumbnails are not showing! where is the problem?
Hello,
There’s a page-builder included that you can use to create it more easily and it’s explained in the documentation. Using shortcodes is recommended only for advanced usage where page-builder can’t help you. In this case, it will work flawlessly.
Additionally, please make sure all of these posts have featured images set.
If that doesn’t solve your issue or for further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums. Please note that technical support staff is only available at the forums and this area is mainly for pre-sale queries.
Cheers.
This is the website http://lmbonline.be/ you can see the news and video section, i want the news section to include thumbnails, but this code is not working
[highlights cat=”news” posts=2 /]
am i doing something wrong?
how do i get my login and password for the forum?
hi, thx for the very cool theme.. is there any way to add more rich content to the mega menu? such as a location map, or any html content of my own? i don’t want to be stricted only to posts/pages. thanks!
Hey,
Sorry but that’s not a feature at the moment of the default mega-menus. It’s on our to do list for future though.
Thanks.

Hello,
I like everything about this theme but font size and color inside posts. It appears to be a little bit smaller than I want.
Is there a dedicated setting for font size in this theme. If no, how easily it would be configurable via code?
Thank you, Vitally
Hey,
You can increase font size for post font from Theme Settings > Typography section so it shouldn’t be an issue. Color can also be changed from Theme Settings > Style & Color.
Cheers.
Hello, theme is very nice and pro, but i have a question, bbpress and buddypress sidebars don’t appear in widgets when i activate them. How can i solve this? Thanks
Hey,

Hello, I was just wondering, concerning the Ad places, are there options in the themes or do you have to use widgets? Thank You. D. (Belgium)
Hey,
Ad spaces use an Advertisement widget in SmartMag.
Cheers.
Thank you! one more question please, in the demo you can change colors of smartMAG. Can you use this or change this in the menu and use another word? or how exactly does this work? thank you.
If you would like to use the color of MAG in smart but in menu and for a different word, that’s possible with a shortcode used in the menu item label.
Cheers.
Tnx, but I was just wondering how you can change the sample theme colors linked with the smartMAG, how can you change the name smartmag for example to sports news and let the words news change colors? sorry for my english and thank you for your help. D.
These both settings are available in Theme Settings in WordPress admin after activating the theme.
Cheers.
Hey if i buy this theme will this update from my wordpress or i’ll have to re download from my downloads in themeforest:?
Hey,
Theme updates are provided by ThemeForest so you will have to update from ThemeForest as per marketplace policies. The option to setup easier updates requires one time setup of API keys from ThemeForest (explained here).
Cheers.
First of all Thanks for building such a nice theme. I have used this theme for my website, the theme is working fine look wise but the load time is huge. I found out that it will takes about 10+ second to get the google fonts sever (in china). So my question is : how to disable web google fonts ? so I can use local fonts instead.
Richard
Hey,
Sorry to hear about Google Font server issue. If you would like to host these fonts yourself, please create a topic at our Support Forums.
Or you can use System Font Stacks. If you go to Appearance > Theme Settings > Typography, you will find option to select fonts. In the selection, you will find “System Fonts” stacks such as for Arial (recommended).
Cheers.
Thanks for the replay, the problem has been solved.
By removing the google fonts code from the “function.php”, the speed back to normal.
I found that its very difficult to reach google fonts sever in china.(almost impossible).
If anyone else is going to set a sever in china, I will recommend them to do the same thing.
Thanks again for the help !
Do you have any woocommerce widgets for homepage? Need one for showing products on homepage.
Hey,
WooCommerce Shortcodes can be used in our page builder using Rich Text widget to show on home-page. There are few shortcodes related to showing latest products, top rated products etc. It’s undocumented feature yet, but if you need help with it, our support
For default widgets, you can obviously use them to showcase your products in the side-bar.
Cheers.
Hi just purchased your theme and I’m trying to get the home page to look like the one in the demo, I can add the elements like in the documentation however I really want the large images that link to content at the top of the page. It seems to actually sit above the ‘page’ I’ve created? Any help, or a point in the right direction, would be greatly appreciated.
Hey,
If it’s a new site, you can use the steps for “Sample Content Import” mentioned under installation section of the documentation to get you started quickly. It will import all data from the demo.
For further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums with a little bit explanation about which images you were referring to.
Thanks.
Hi,
I have been playing with the theme typography settings and I’m trying to use roboto slab for page/post h tags. I can get the post/page headings to change using the theme typography settings but h tags within the page/post body seem to ignore these settings. No matter what I do I get Open Sans bold.
Nick
Hey Nick,
It’s set by the “Pages & In-Post Headings” font setting for both main titles and in post body headings. If that’s not working for you, please create a topic at our Support Forums with a link to your site.
Thanks.
Hi,
yes, that’s the setting I’m trying to use.
I will have to let this go for now since I’m developing the site locally. Once I’ve published to a live server, I’ll make the post to support.
thanks
Broken Slider Good Day, everything seems to be working but on the right side of slider the bottom 2 thumbnails fall out of frame. The 3rd thumbnail falls under the second one pushing the rest of the content down. – I’ve used Regenerate Thumbnails plugin
Hello,
If you had existing content and featured images before theme was activated, you will have to install Regenerate Thumbnails plugin and run it from Tools > Regen. Thumbnails.
For further support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.
Thanks.
Hello, I’ve used Regenerate Thumbnail and I’m still experiencing the same issue.

A pre sales question…can I use home page #3 (2/3 page +sidebar) and have posts by category like homepage #5? Thanks
Hey,
Sure. It’s one of the page-builder blocks for setting up the home-page.
Cheers.
Couple of comments
1. When you add arbitrary text or html with ‘page builder’ and then copy and past html with a basic text link… link is black (would help if the link colour is the same (functions) as normal text links on posts and pages.
2. Would be great to use ‘page builder’ with any page created, seems that… ‘page builder’ can only work as part of the assigned homepage.
otherwise, fantastic theme!
Hey,
First of all, thanks for your input and glad to know you like the theme.
1. Are you using “Rich Text” widget in the page-builder? That’s used to imitate the post behavior while the normal text widget is for block layouts and other advanced HTML.
2. It should work on all pages. As you can see in our demo, all the pages in the first column under “Features” menu are page-builder pages. Please get in touch with support if you’re experiencing issues using it on normal pages.
If you need support, please create a topic at our Support Forums.
Cheers.
Tried 2450 Premium news themes already. i want exactly this….www.emerce.nl
Possible with this theme?
Hey,
Sorry the link you gave has two sidebars and structurally entirely different from SmartMag. It won’t be possible without almost completely changing the look.
Thanks.
thanks a lot for your quick reply. have to search for another theme.
still i think when you put the extra column in it [3 column structure] sales will boost more 
Thanks for your suggestion. We have added it as a layout in demand and we may consider in future.
ok. i will buy the theme if it comes with 3 columns 
Hi again. Sorry for the inconvenience but did you decide to go for the 3 column structure [sidebar/content/sidebar]?
Hey,
Sorry, but we still don’t have it as an immediate plan as there was only 1 request for it – so it might take months as there are more requested features first.
Since you seem so interested, we can get our support to guide you on how to add a 3rd sidebar that might look something like this: http://i.imgur.com/e5DL2Gk.png
Thanks for sticking around and good luck.
Cheers.
thank you for your kind reply. the 3rd sidebar you show in the visual….does this have to be special programmed for me?
Yes, it will require some modification to add the 3rd sidebar but one of our staff member will guide you and give you to the code to add.
Cheers.
That is very sweet. Extra costs?
Also. is it possible to set the screensize to 1200px instead of 1040px
There will be no extra cost for the layout in screenshot as one of our staff already did it half of it for his own use. But we can’t guarantee the 1200px one – as featured slider will break on that width.
Cheers.
Thanks. I come back to you soon
Hi. Purchased the theme. After installation and working with it I decide to go for another theme. Sorry. Btw. seems like safari is not compatible…does not show fonts in safari
We have tested it on major Safari versions but we don’t support Windows Safari (as that’s a dead project). Also, on localhost can cause font issues sometimes. Can you mention the Safari version?
Thanks.
safari version 5.1.7.
Also. how to change the timeformat in timeline from ie Jun 17 to ie monday 17 june?
because it has to be Dutch timeformat [maandag 17 juni]
and about safari….that is clear to me. Your theme is perfect…..safari isn’t
It will work fine when you use the Safari on Mac. So no worries about that.
For dutch, our support can give you exact setting, but we use the default WordPress “Date Format” from Settings > General. If you want to learn to set it up yourself, please check this guide. Or, please create a topic at our Support Forums to get the exact format to use there.
Cheers.
Hi. I´m trying to register at the support forum, but i´m not receiving my password.
Hey,
Sorry to hear you’re having trouble with forum registration. Please go to our Profile and send us an email with your purchase code and username.
Thanks.
Right.. I am very close to purchasing this theme. I really love it!
One final question – Because I will edit it quite a bit how easy is it to install on a tester wordpress and then move it to my live wordpress?
Hey,
Glad to know you love the theme.
The migration process is similar to normal WordPress move but if you’re talking about only exporting theme settings, they can be exported and imported from theme settings panel. Please note that this won’t transfer your WordPress data such as posts, pages, category, etc. For that, you’ll have to use the normal WordPress migration method (we can recommend some guides if you have never migrated a WordPress installation before).
Cheers.
