Hi, I’m very happy with the theme! Love it. I have 2 questions to improve http://www.verfding.nl that I have built with skylab (purchased):

1- I would like to link photographs on a gallery page to specific portfolio pages. For example, a click on the first painting on page http://www.verfding.nl/gallery/jo-debije-schilderijen/#.U_jyJ0j1wy8 should bring you to http://www.verfding.nl/portfolio/incisie-in-rood/#.U_jz50j1wy8

Is that possible and how can I create that?

2 – I would like to make a link from one portfolio to another. For example: if you are on http://www.verfding.nl/portfolio/pipette/#.U_j0PEj1wy8 and press the >, at the end of the photo’s I would like the visitor to continue automaticly so that one more click on > will take them to the next portfolio page, which in this case is http://www.verfding.nl/portfolio/inside-outside/#.U_j0yUj1wy8

Is that possible and how can I create that?

Thanks for thinking on this!

Hi,

  1. You can add URL in captions. See the screencast how to add captions http://www.screenr.com/TEHH
  2. I’m sorry but I don’t quite understand your question. Please create a support ticket by following this link http://megatheme.ticksy.com/ and we will take a look.

A while back (http://themeforest.net/item/skylab-portfolio-photography-wordpress-theme/4740718/comments?page=34#comment_4532666) you gave code on how to fix Woocommerce so that it wasn’t covered by the sidebar.

The code works perfectly, except that the padding squishes the page on mobile. Is there any way to disable the padding on mobile?

I am seriously Unhappy with the technical service here! As instructed you asked me to contact you privately and I haven’t received a reply in a week! What do I have to do to get a simple issue resolved? This is the third message I have sent you and this simple problem should have been resolved in July. Every technical support or message seem to be a half assed attempt. It’s a shame because the theme is amazing but the customer service stinks. I’m not asking for much, just a little a bit of help. I’m not asking anyone to do my home work!

Yes I have already at least I replied to a previous support ticket. I replied to your outlook email as you advised and did get a support ticket here. Do I need to clarify the problem on the forum? Again. Maybe i’ll just create another support ticket just for the fun of it…

BTW this is the support ticket megatheme@outlook.com

Hey there, one year ago cynthiaprince14 asked you this

Is there a way to make two different portfolio list pages displaying different categories? There are categories I would like to keep off on the portfolio list page and yet display them on a separate portfolio list page—

or

Is there a way to make two different gallery list pages displaying different categores?

Thank you

You said that you are working on a solution, an that it will come with the next update.

I have the same Question and need a solution for this.

Hi, you can use portfolio categories only http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/portfolio-category/branding/ but you can use custom URL for them.

Dear Megatheme, first of all, I want to say thank you for having developed this amazing theme. There is just one problem: There is no drag navigation for the Super Smooth Slider (Royal Slider jQuery Plugin) using the last version of Google Chrome for Android (36.0.1985.135) I tried to fix it, but I haven’t had luck using the following tips:
  • updating Royal Slider to the last version (9.5.5): http://help.dimsemenov.com/discussions/problems/30515-sliderdrag-vs-slidertouch (the update will not fix the problem with the drag navigation and all thumbnails will disappear)
  • adding the following lines to your functions.php: sliderDrag: true, sliderTouch: true,
  • 3) adding the following lines in the custom CSS: .rsWebkit3d * { -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; -webkit-transform: translateZ(0); }
Could you help me please?

Hi! There is no ShareThis buttons on my pages. Please help. www.constantinedigovets.com

You will need it from here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/addthis/ and activate it or go to Plugins > Add new, search for “AddThis”, hit “Install Now” and activate it. Once installed, navigate to the plugin settings page (Settings > AddThis Share) and choose “Custom button” radio button. Then add these lines of code to the textarea under “Custom button” radio button:
<a class="addthis_button_compact">Share</a>

Hi, This didn’t help me. I did everything that you wrote. I can see a share button only on my blog page. I want to see it on every page of my website.

Hi

this code #site-title a, #site-title-custom a { color: #ff0000; } changes the site title color everywhere but not for the Fullscreen Slider full with of the Window slider!
This changes the site title color only for Fullscreen Slider with full with of the Window template .page-template-page-full-width-window-slider-php #site-title a, #site-title-custom a { color: #ff0000; } how can I combine both codes together so I can change site title color on every page?

In the online demo (http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/), on the Portfolios list page, there is a nice slide effect for the title, categories and excerpt when you hover over one of the thumbnails. Unfortunately the demo files provided with the theme do not show this effect, and the text appears directly.

Can you please let me know what CSS or PHP settings to change in order to have the same nice effect on my portfolios list? And can you please also fix it in the next release so that people who buy the theme can enjoy it exactly as they saw it in the online demo?

(someone asked the very same question one year ago. Your answer was not very helpful at the time and nothing got updated in the mean time)

The piece of code above has worked for a few days and then has stopped working for no apparent reason. Any idea and when will you release the update?

Hi,

The code I inserted:

.singular .entry-title { font-size: 39px; line-height: 1.3; font-weight: 700; margin: 4px 0 0; } h1 { font-size: 39px; line-height: 1.3; } h2 { font-size: 37px; } h3 { font-size: 27px; } h4 { font-size: 23px; } h5 { font-size: 20px; } h6 { font-size: 14px; font-weight: bold; text-transform: uppercase; }

Hello:

Looking for a way to configure this setup:

1. The main portfolio page http://www.azucaingenio.com/new/?page_id=1058 that holds the images for the portfolio categories. 2. The sub portfolio, which will be more than one like sub portfolio 1, 2, 3 and so on. This child page needs to have the same layout than the main portfolio; this is: images in rows and columns, one close to each other, and also the layer on hover to display the name an category.

Any way to accomplish this setup?

Thanks.

Hi, we apologize for the delay in response.

Unfortunately, what you have described isn’t available with the theme.

Hello, I’ve been using this theme for about a year and just updated to the latest version. I have a dark background, so I also re-copied the “Black” styles code to the Custom CSS block under Appearance/Style. All of the type seems to be readable now, except for the titles on my summary pages when hovering over the individual gallery and portfolio boxes. That font color is still too dark to read. The categories for the individual galleries are readable, but the font for the titles is still too dark to read. Can you please tell me the extra code that should be added to the CSS block to lighten the font for the gallery and portfolio titles shown on the summary pages so it is readable again. Thank you for your help.

Hello! I have purchased and installed your theme, and everything seems to be working just fine. However, when I attempt to go to any of the Portfolio pages, I get a 404. I have never come across this problem before.

Any ideas?

Hello. I have a few problems with this theme.

1. There is no “Theme Options”, it’s not visible, empty… only buttons “Reset Options” and “Save Changes”

2. In gallery “Full width slider” there is no arrows into frames, only empty frames The same in “Slider” gallery. But In Chrome I can see arrows, but in IE and Mozilla not.

3. I’m afraid Portfolio dosen’t work properly, but i’m still testing it.

What’s is wrong?

I have Wordpress 3.9.2 My website: www.maciejodrzywolski.pl

Regards Bungo

3. If I click Portfolio Item from menu, it shows Error 404

Oooo, It seems, I fixed everythink, by re-instaling wordpress from Fantastico host.

Hi, FREAKING AMAZING THEME! But before I buy…

2 Questions.

1: Can any gallery be set as the home page? For example I want the “Super Smooth Slider” as my homepage/Landing Page.

then if it can…

2: Can the super smooth slider display featured images that link to portfolio or blogs posts…?

Warm Regards…

Hi,

  • Yes of course.
  • You can enter a URL, see the eighth slide from the end http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/super-smooth-slider/
  • Amazing. Just amazing. Reckon month end I’m gonna take it. Great work. ;) And thanks for the swift reply. ;)

    Hi,

    I’m locally creating a website for my art gallery. I’ve created multiple portfolios, each portfolio representing an artist. When I add images to a portfolio to display the artists work, it doesn’t show the captions when I enable a slideshow. Could this be fixed?

    Hi, I have found a very annoying bug. My site is bilingual French/English, and I am using the Polylang plug-in to create French and English versions of about everything in my site: categories, pages, posts, keywords, etc… I have had no problem between Polylang and Skylab as long as I was just using pages and posts. Recently I made the move to Portfolios to enhance my site. Unfortunately when Poylang is told to enable language management for portfolios, Skylab does not display portfolio categories on the thumbnails on the portfolio-list page. For example, instead of displaying “Landscape” it displays “English”, and instead of displaying “Paysage” it displays “French”. This happens only to the text displayed on top of thumbnails when you hover over them. Note that, surprisingly, the portfolio filtering works great and shows either the English of French portfolio categories. I am assuming that the code used to retrieve the portfolio category names in the filtering is perfect, while the one used to display each category name on top of the thumbnails is flawed. Can you please check the differences between the two codes and let me know how to fix the thumbnail text? Of course, it will be appreciated if you can also fix this bug in the next release. Please help and do not write one of these awful answers like “Sorry, but I am afraid this is not available in the theme”, or “We recommend that you hire a developer”..... Thanks! P.S.: my site URL is http://patrickmevel.com but I have disabled language support for the portfolios because it is a production site and leaving it broken would not look very professional. At least it will give you a feel for the bilingual stuff on other parts of the site

    Thanks. You did not answer my question about WPML. Can you confirm that the code you use (“custom_taxonomies_terms_links();”) works when multiple languages are used with WPML? I am concerned that Polylang works very similarly to WPML and that this piece of code needs more testing with multilingual sites. I really don’t want to go through the hassle of buying WPML just to later on find out that Skylab does not handle it either.

    It’s not something we test I’m afraid.

    I am seriously unhappy about this (lack of) support. So, I report a bug, you blame a plugin that I use, and you advise me to use another plugin that you have not tested either… Well done, Megatheme! It is a pity because the theme is overall OK but the poor support makes it worth no more than 1 or 2 stars. Considering that the price went up from 45$ to 48$, it looks like you did not put the additional 3$ in either testing, quality assurance, documentation, or technical support…

    Hi Megatheme,

    great template! Just a question. I would like to use bigger images in the blog. Is it possible to change the width of the blog a bit more?

    thanks!

    Hi, please create a support ticket by following this link http://megatheme.ticksy.com/ and we will take a look.

    Can the “image gallery” gallery change to square grid style like 500px profile gallery? If so how can I do it?

    Hi, it may well be possible with some modification but it’s not something which is available out of the box I’m afraid.
