I’m trying to create a child theme based off Wordpress’ instructions. Doing so renders the site unusable (a blank white page). I’ve turned on debugging, and the error messages I get are:

Warning: require_once(/home4/thesmav4/public_html/new/wp-content/themes/smartgirlsgroup/framework/meta-box/meta-box.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home4/thesmav4/public_html/new/wp-content/themes/storm/functions.php on line 268

Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘[site-url]/wp-content/themes/[site-name]/framework/meta-box/meta-box.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/php/54/usr/lib64:/usr/php/54/usr/share/pear’) in /[site-url]/wp-content/themes/storm/functions.php on line 268

The line in question (line 268 in functions.php) reads:

require_once RWMB_DIR . 'meta-box.php';

Do you know what the problem might be?

Hi,
Please copy framework folder in parent theme and put it to root folder of the child theme. This issue is caused by the path to metabox.php is wrong
Thanks

Thank you!

Hi, I’m about to purchase your theme.. This looks great! But there are few things I’m concerning about… Do you have any plan to add category menu and customized color panel?

Hi
Thank you very much for your interest. At this time, we dont have plan to do this. We will consider when we have time.
Thank you

I recently purchased the theme and have it activated on my domain. Is there a way to have theme show up live like it is on your demo page then be able to just go into wordpress and change out what I do not want and rearrange? Also, is there ways of changing the background picture like some major video game websites do if so where is that located at in the theme settings? Please let me know on everything.

Thank you.

Hi
You can contact us via bkninja.team@gmail.com
Thanks

Just emailed you all the details. Please let me know how it goes and if you wouldn’t mind to answer what I mentioned above that would be great!

Done, Please Check your email

Hi—curious before I purchase this theme: what are my options for color customization? It seems from previous comments that category colors can’t (yet) be changed, but I’m curious about the theme’s primary color. Can I customize that beyond the presets made available on the Live Preview site?

Hi
1. At this time, Category colors picker is not supported by the theme.
2. The theme supports unlimited primary color. You can choose what color you want via Theme Options.
Thank you for your interest

Thank you for your help!

Hi BKNinja

Would it be possible to move the “share this post” (incl. icons) part of each post up a bit? Maybe just after the title/video/featured img or something similar.

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing the theme
Yes, you can send your admin site and your ftp account to our email, we will do it directly for you. However, for more clearly, if possible, you should send a screenshot for us that details the new place of share box.
Regards

I love that theme. Great visual experience. But your beautiful blog post formats urgently need filters… category, tags, post dates

Hi,
Thank you for your suggestion.
We will consider to do it.
Regards

Hi again. Thanks for answering my last question so fast. :)

As in your demo, I want to display a photo to the left of the author box. Under “Users > Your Profile”, I found no place to upload a photo. I also couldn’t find a place within the Storm theme options.

Can you help? Thanks in advance!

Hi bkninja!

Great work with the template, i´m already thinking about buying it again for some other projects! I just have one little Problem with one of the widgets, the “Social Counter”. As it seems, there is an issue with the Youtube API, because as soon as i implement my Youtube Username (URL) in it, i get this Error:

Warning: file_get_contents() [function.file-get-contents]: http:// wrapper is disabled in the server configuration by allow_url_fopen=0 in /var/www/web322/html/betaportal/wp-content/themes/storm/widgets/widget_social_counter.php on line 147

Warning: file_get_contents(http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/api/users/[deleted my Youtube Name from here^^]) [function.file-get-contents]: failed to open stream: no suitable wrapper could be found in /var/www/web322/html/betaportal/wp-content/themes/storm/widgets/widget_social_counter.php on line 147

It just happens with Youtube all the other Social Channels are working with no Problem. Would be great if you could help me out!

Best Regards

Hi,
Thank you for purchasing our theme
The issue come when we call social counter widget with file_get_content() function. Your server must have allow_url_fopen property set to true. You need to contact with your host provider so they can enable it for you. We found this threat and think you will have a reference. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6551379/file-get-contents-error
Thanks

Thanks for your response. I could change the Settings under the Advanced Settings and now it is working finde. Best Regards!

I’m having trouble linking my Google+ page to my website (https://support.google.com/business/answer/4569085?p=link_page_to_website&rd=2).

Inserting the code into the header via Wordpress’ “Settings > Insert Header Footer” has zero effect. Is there a conflict with the theme or am I not inserting the code in the right place? The code in question is the following:

<a href="https://plus.google.com/pageID#" rel="publisher">Google+</a>

Thanks in advance and I’m enjoying this theme very much.

Hi, please go to Appearance -> Editor and select to edit file header.php. Insert this snippet right above the </head> tag:

<a href="https://plus.google.com/pageID#" rel="publisher"></a>
If you check the search result it might not be affected yet but you can use Google Webmaster tool to check: http://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/richsnippets

Hello

I just bought the “Storm – Clean Magazine & Blog Theme” and it looks great.

I have one mayor problem though. None of the “home full-width section” widgets works. Nothing happens on the site, when I add them.

I saw that a coupple of other people here had the same problems so maybe you already know what I’m doing wrong?

I hope you can help me – as I am on a deadline. :)

Best regards R.

Hi, thank you for purchasing our theme!
First you need to create a page using template “Home Page” then set it as your front page. You can read about it in theme’s documentation. If you still have trouble setting up your homepage, please email us your site panel access and we will set it up for you
Regards,

Thanks BKninja! Best and fastest support I’ve had in a very long time. Everything works now. :)

To other with the same problem: Turns out I just had to make more posts for it to work. I only had 2 temp posts. It needed 3-5 for some widgets to show.

(Repost, same questions, different username)

Hi! Can you help me with a few things?

First, I want to include my logo next to the site title in the header, but when I upload an image (under ‘Theme Options’ -> ‘Header Settings’ -> ‘Site logo’), it just replaces my site title so the title is completely removed. How can I fix this?

Second, I want one of my category names to have a lower case letter, but even when I write it lower case, it still shows up as a capital letter. I’ve tried changing the font, and playing around in the typography settings but can’t get it to work.

Thanks in advance for your help.

One more additional question: Is there a way to track site traffic? Would this be a plug-in I’d use, or do you know how I could do this? Just thought I’d ask here first.

Thank you again!

Hi, there’s no option to adjust the category names in main menu, but you can use this CSS snippet to change menu item name to lower case:

.main-nav a{text-transform:none;}

Ah, please use this snippet instead:

.main-nav a{text-transform:inherit;}

Uploaded image creates 14 different sized images how can i handle it i dont want too much image will it use all from theme?

if you dont want gallery post autoplay /js/customjs.js line near 273 make slideshow: true, to slideshow:false

Hi,
Sorry, I don’t sure what you mean. If you want gallery post autoplay, you need to set

slideshow: true
, to disable gallery post autoplay:
slideshow: false
Thanks

thanks i did

Hi,
Your requests need some custom work. But at this time, we have many requests from our customers who have the highest priority in our support. Please buy the theme to have it.
Thanks

Sorry I shouldve posted the comment in my username that bought the theme. I did buy it and am just needing some help. I will post from my employer login for this site.

Hi! I found a terrible problem. When I click on “load more” on “Module Blog Classic” it shows the scheduled posts and should not yet be displayed on the blog!

tks for reply! How can i do this? I’m a new user … sorry!

Hi
The safe way to update our theme is switch to another theme like Twenty Fourteen, then delete the old Storm theme folder. From this step, you can upload new version of the theme by using .zip file or upload extracted folder to your wordpress/themes/ folder on your host. After that, you can switch back to Storm theme
Thanks

Done! Thank you so much!!

The theme is good – Does it have a slider (carousel) widget, so that i can scroll posts in sidebar? Does the theme has separate sidebar for home, category and posts page? Thanks

Hi, thank you for purchasing out theme.
1. Yes, there is a slider widget.
2. The theme only has 2 separated sidebar for home and the other pages. However you can use Custom sidebar plugin.
Regards,

Olá amigo eu comprei e instalei esse tema, mas está ocorrendo um erro de carregamento, toda vez que estou logado no admin tudo que faço ocorre perfeitamente, mas agora quando eu saiu do admin e carrego a pagina sem estar logado o site fica com se eu não tivesse feito nenhuma alteração..

Hi bkninja!

I’m doing minor customizations on the theme and i need add your custom meta boxes to my custom post fields created by me (not by a plugin).

I have found the RW_Meta_Box class and i tried to customize it adding my cpt name on $meta_box[‘pages’] and other changes with no effects.

Can you help me?

Thanks for your time and for this brilliant theme!!!

Yep, please email us your site admin access and I will help you.
Regards,

Just a quick request when you have time: would it be possible to add a background link option to the Theme Options > Site Layout panel?

Thanks!

Hi,
We will inform you when it’s done.
Regards

That would be fantastic, thanks so much!

Please send your ftp account to our email. We will add this option for you
