Hi there, great theme!

Just a question…. When I create a new category, for instance called ‘Releases’, then the category main page has as title (above the breadcrumbs): ‘Categories’ in a real large font.

I’d prefer it if it actually displayed ‘Releases’ instead. Is there a way to change this?

Ah and another question: How do I change the Read More button so that it displays a different text?

Thanks!

Glad you haven’t answered yet…still have the same questions above…plus one. How do I populate the “incoming events” feature on the homepage?

Thanks!

Hello,

1. Music page

- Add some items via Music Manager (covers, mp3…)
- Create new page and select ‘Music’ template in page attributes
- Save
- On this page select your music category or select ‘all’
- Save
- Add this page to your menu
- Done

2. Incoming Events

- Add new category e.g. ‘upcoming events’ and create some posts. You can also add images thumbs in ‘Post thumnail’ box.
- Go to – Pendulum -> General Settings -> Home page -> Recent Posts Category nad select your category

3. Contact Form

Check your site path, the path must be so:

http://yourdomain.com/wp-content/themes/pendulum/

Okay…another question. How do I get my music page to look like your music page? Where, and how, do I upload the mp3 files?

Are the players part of the template? I’m just a little confused on this aspect of the theme…which rocks, by the way!

Your music page. Very Tasty.
My music page. Fail!

Also, just tried to test the “contact” feature…it is telling me that the answer is invalid. I have changed it several times in the R-Panel to different answers…no dice. Need some guidance.

Cheers!

Hello, Great work.

Where do I find:

- custom_date - Newsletter widgets - Friends widgets

Where do I edit this simbol (?) in the music player graphics?

Many Thanks

Hello, we thank, you will find additional plugs on the side: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/

If you want to use ‘custom date’ in ‘incoming events’ and the custom player button get in touch with us via our TF user page.

Alright I replaced this code in the portfolio.php ->

<?php echo $value['caption']; ?>

with the code you gave me ->

<?php echo do_shortcode($r_text_box); ?>

and what it did is it took the home page “About me” section and put it for the caption on all of the portfolio items. ( I changed it back for the sake of the website)

Here’s a direct link to the portfolio->

http://www.alexbuechel.com/portfolio/

Here is the shortcode I need it to support

[starrating id=11 color=4 name="300 Spartans" size=1 stars=0 max=5]

upps… it is an our fault, we apologise for that,

you must replace with this code:

<?php echo do_shortcode($value['caption']); ?>

Brilliant! Thanks, Rascals.

Is there a way to have Full Width Pages with this theme in case I wanna have a page that I’d not use any of the page templates like home, portfolio, etc…?

Unfortunately but at the moment it’s impossible in this template.

redtidestudios, how did you get the slider up? can see the instructions in the documents… bet they are staring me in the face!

+

the menu bar along the top…

We thank for the purchase, we can see that you already advised yourself with the problem. If you have any other problems or need further assistance you can email us.

Please ignore the post above regarding the homepage slider…got it. Still need red theme options.

Cheers!

Hello,

Go to Pendulum -> General settings -> Customize -> Theme Stylesheet and choose ‘red.css’

Purchased!

Lets give it a go!

Is there anyway I can set it to where the caption on the portfolio images can allow HTML code? Or support shortcodes?

I’m trying to add a star rating system for each individual portfolio piece and the star rating plugin wants me to insert a shortcode where the rating would be. But instead of showing the stars it shows the shortcode in the caption….

Hello,

Portfolio Manager (not in Portfolio 2 template) allows for using HTML tags e.g. try to use this code:

<a href="#">Themeforest</a> 

You can also use shortcodes, you must only open a file ‘portfolio.php’ and to replace:

&lt;?php echo $value['caption']; ?&gt;

on this:

<?php echo do_shortcode($r_text_box); ?>

Loaded two items in the “Home Page Slider” via the “R-Panel 1.0” and they are not showing up on the live site. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

issue: redtidestudios.com

If changing the color scheme has been discussed then please disregard this next question…how do I change the scheme to red?

I’m moderately web savvy, but not a programmer.

Thanks!

This theme looks brilliant, alot of work has gone into the site! well done Rascals. Ill be buying this tonight!

little to no experience with word press but if the look of the demo/live site is achievable then the band will be more than happy to donate directly.

Who done the art work? we are on the look out for Album art with a similar look if you can refer anyone!

Hello,

All the ones wonderful arts you will find on http://creattica.com/

thank you!

is it possible to add html code to the home page text box, my customer now wants an AD rotator on his home page and i need to try and find an easy way to add this..

any thoughts welcome.

Yes, there is such possibility, you can use HTML tags. you can also use in this box – SHORTCODES (in item FAQ is written as it to do)

hi there, can you point me in the right direction as to where i change the back ground image, cant seem to find it anywhere ?

many thanks

richard

Hello,

in this template you have two backgrounds: body and bg-wrap (style.css)
body {
        background: #191919 url(styles/default/bg.jpg) left top repeat;
}
#bg-wrap {
    background: transparent url(styles/default/bg2.png) center top no-repeat;
}

Also… How can I have the gallery have multiple pages? Meaning, I only want like 6 gallery images to show per page and have a next and previous page button.

Hello,

Thanks for purchasing the theme. We emailed you back with some details. If you have any other problems or need further assistance you can email us and we apologise that we overlooked your question.

Oh one more question…

The portfolio manager doesn’t display the pictures I’m uploading anymore. The first ones appear, the newest ones only who an empty frame. I have tried uploading the pictures from the portfolio manager, and I have tried placing the picture through ftp and using the pics’ url… neither of them work…

any idea how to fix this?

Thanks!

Best,

Melissa

Hello,

Try to clean the ‘cache’ folder in your template, if it won’t help please get in touch with us via our Themeforest user page:

Hi Rascals,

I’m almost done building my site, but I just realized by testing different screen resolutions that my front page comes out too big on a 1024×768 screen… while as yours fit perfectly. I didn’t change anything in the front page sizing… any idea how I can fix that?

Thanks!

Hello,

It is hard for us to say, more easily it would be if you sent the address of your site.

www.melpsproject.com/shorteeblitz

thanks for your help!

Seems a little odd you took the time to answer everyone elses question and completely skipped my on top… Here is the question again…

“I re-sized the slider to a smaller width. The template is automatically resizing/cropping my images to the original slider size. Where do I need to go to change the dimensions of the sides its resizing it to?”

Btw. Do you have any trick for the mp3 upload because my bandwith is going through the roof!!!

Hello,

1. Unfortunately but it isn’t possible in the simple way, you must know a php/html/wp-api little

2. Perhaps, try to use some FTP program, like FileZilla
