any way to ensure google ads does not show up in the background youtube videos?

Hi DitlevB,

Thank you for purchasing Finely.

Unfortunately the only way to remove ads for the background video is to upload the video yourself to YouTube and disable the ads via the video manager on YouTube (https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/94522?hl=en).

We are working on a new video background system, which will allow background videos to be sourced from Vimeo or from video files on your server – which should provide a more reliable experience without any ads. We’re still a while off finishing it, but hopefully this update will be available in the relatively near future.

Hope this helps :)

Is it possible to change ‘Days’ , ‘seconds’ text, etc… because I would like to make a french website with this template.

Thanks !

Hi,

Thank you for your interest in Finely, and apologies for our slow response.

You can easily change the countdown text, but it requires changing a few lines of JavaScript. Feel free to get in touch with us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk and we’ll walk you through everything.

Thanks :)

Hello there! This is a bit in a hurry, but i get this error message when i open the website in Firefox

“The date you entered is invalid or not in the correct format.

Please use the format: DD MONTH YYYY HH:MM:SS For example: 05 august 2012 03:30:02

If you still see this message consult the documentation.”

Hi NeptOn,

Thanks for purchasing Finely.

I was just writing out a response – glad you got it fixed.

Enjoy Finely :)

Hey!

It doesnt seem like the countdown timer works in Explorer 8. Is there any way to fix this or is it impossible?

Hi NeptOn,

As far as we’re aware, there is no fix available for the countdown problems – sorry.

Unfortunately Finely is only supported in IE9 and above, so we can’t guarantee that all features will work in older browsers and we don’t provide support services to fix problems in browsers which are not compatible with Finely.

Thanks

Hello,

Im having issues with background images responsiveness – http://litmercorp.com. Help appreciated.

Thanks, Alvaro

Hi afkreative,

Thanks for purchasing Finely.

The only issue we can see is that you have set the background to use four images in custom.js – whereas you are only using a single image. The script is searching for additional images which can’t be found, therefore causing some errors.

In custom.js, remove the lines for any images you aren’t using – so if you have only uploaded background1.jpg, remove the other lines for background2, background3, etc. Like this:

Before:
var slideshowBackgroundURLS = [
    "images/background1.jpg",
    "images/background2.jpg",
    "images/background3.jpg",
    "images/background4.jpg",
];

After:

var slideshowBackgroundURLS = [
    "images/background1.jpg",
];

Hopefully this will fix the issue. We haven’t seen the problem you’re experiencing before – usually having missing image files doesn’t cause any major problems like the ones you have pointed out. However this is the only issue we could find with your site so far, but we’ll continue investigating for any other problems and will keep you posted with our progress.

If you need further support, please contact us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk.

Hope this helps :)

That did it. Thanks for the super fast response! Awesome template!

No problem. Enjoy Finely :)

Hey, i like the template. i have some questions. In the template you have 3 buttons, can i add more (5) ? The template are dark, can it be lighter? Thanks in advance

Hi, thanks for your interest in Finely.

You can have as many buttons/pages as you like (all steps for adding them explained in the documentation).

Unfortunately at the moment there is no “light” skin available for Finely – only the dark version (unless you manually edit the CSS).

I hope this answers your questions :)

Yeah it answers my questions. When i will puchase it, i hope you’ll help me change the CSS manually

Edit: I forgot to ask: Can i hide the countdown? because i dont really need it for my website

Yes – you can remove the countdown. When the time comes, get in touch with us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk and we’ll guide you through customising the CSS and removing the countdown.

Hope his helps :)

Great theme, but doesn’t work on mobile. The loader keeps going and nothing happens.

Thanks in advance

Hi vangogh1721,

Thanks for purchasing Finely! Apologies for our slow reply.

The video background should loop by default – I’ve looked over your site but haven’t noticed any problems with the video – please could you be more specific about when and in which browser the video stops working.

For more detailed support, please get in touch at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk

Thanks :)

Also, if you’re experiencing problems, try changing the YouTube URL you’re using to http:// instead of https:// in custom.js.

Hope this helps :)

Thanks!

This is a great template – easy to use, flexible, and it comes with excellent support. Incidentally, in case this helps anyone else, the single hiccup I had with this theme (more of a feature request than a hiccup to be accurate) is I wanted to be able to link from one sub section to another. For example, link directly to the contact us section from the subscribe section. The theme’s developers sent me modified code to use (which you can see below) within a few hours. I highly recommend this theme!

modified link code: <a class="nav-button" onclick="closeSection('section-about');setTimeout(function(){showSection('section-contact')},2000);">contact us</a>

Thanks for the kind words :)

For any users wondering about this, we’ll include this code and the relevant instructions in the next update to Finely.

Pretty odd, but quite often when I try to save settings in the Ves control panel my site just goes “504 gateway timeout” and then the site goes down for couple of minutes. A familiar problem? I guess it’s not mandatory to install all the modules in the theme?

Hi yxmedia,

Thanks for purchasing Finely :) I haven’t heard of this problem before or experienced it myself – it sounds more like a problem with your server than an issue with Finely. All of the files in the download are required for the template to work properly.

If you need further support please contact us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk.

Hope you get it sorted!

Oh crap, I asked my question on the wrong template page. Quite stupid :D Your theme is working properly fine hehe.

No worries :)

Thanks for the email. Everything seems to be in order. We are sporting 10’s now. Great stuff! Thanks..

On a side note, what social icons are available with your code. I added foursquare and that showed up, tried yelp, but to no avail. Can you give a listing of social icons and their text names, or just point me in the right direction for something I may have missed in the documentation.

You have been so helpful. Thanks for a great template..

Kind regards, Saxamo

Yeah – only the CSS and Fonts folders are required. Once you replace those files, everything else should work fine without any extra changes.

Hope this helps :)

Perfect! Thanks! I wish you continued success and good karma!

Thanks – you too :)

Hello there,

Nice template.. Going to be using it for a nice cause. I do want to fix one item with 14 parts. Remember the movie back to school (showing my age) I want to replace all the instances of presentational tags with a semantic alternative. What I mean by this is: I want to replace all the with proper html5 or a css equivalent. I need your help to make this great template even more perfect. Can you help with this? I don’t want to replace my entire site. I just need to know what to do in order to fix the existing template that is already in use.

http://www.we-rok.org

Kind regards, Saxamo

Hi Saxamo,

Thank you for purchasing Finely and I’m glad you like it!

Please get in touch with us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk and provide more specific information about what you’d like doing.

Unfortunately customisation services aren’t included with our support service – if all you’re after is a few pointers/basic instructions to help you get started (and you’ll add your custom HTML5/CSS stuff etc. yourself) then that’s fine, although if you’d like us to do the work for you a small fee is involved, as customisation services aren’t part of our complimentary support service. I hope you understand :)

Thanks :)

Sounds like a plan.. If you could give me a couple pointers and if I cannot seem to get it.. well, then I guess I will have to pay to get it done properly. :) I love the template. Must be rather nice to see your work showing up on the internet. In fact.. For some the template is just fine for information at the end of the countdown.. Just remove the countdown and utilize the rest of the template.. Very sleek, works well.. Firefox has some issues with the video though, so keeping it to images seems to work well.

I will be contacting you shortly.. How shall I proceed, a simple email with a link to this conversation? Or shall I just start a new?

Kind regards, Saxamo

Thanks for understanding :)

A new email is probably best – I’ll give you some instructions about how to achieve what you want to do once I hear from you.

Hi there,

I have a problem with this theme, after downlouding and uploading it to my wordpress i get this:Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.

Theme install failed.

i tried it several times.

regards Jered , the netherlands

Hi Jered,

Unfortunately Finely is a simple HTML template, not a Wordpress theme – which is why you aren’t able to install it into Wordpress.

I hope you find a way to use Finely so that it isn’t a wasted purchase.

Thanks :)

Fantastic theme!

The only thing I couldn’t figure out is how to make the social buttons larger. Any help with that?

Unfortunately I think this is caused by computers having trouble processing the large image files for transitions etc. , so there’s not much we can do – try lowering the file sizes of your images.

We’re investigating, hopefully we can improve this is a little.

Thanks :)

I don’t think this is related to file sizes, I encountered these issues with 70k images, on i7 CPUs (with no spikes). It doesn’t happen so often that it would deter me from using Finely, but a fix would be great. Thanks!

Oh ok – guess that’s not the issue then!

Thanks for the feedback – we’ll look into it :)

Hi,

I cant get the video background to work. I’ve looked through documentation, even with the exact script i copied from the documentation, wont even load. Its stuck at the loading screen.

Please advice. Thank you.

Hi,

Thank you for purchasing Finely.

A possible reason for the video background not working is if you are testing Finely locally on your computer – the video will only work if you are running the template on a web server.

Please get in touch with us at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk and give us the URL to your site, so we can provide detailed feedback and hopefully an immediate solution.

Thanks, hope this helps :)

Hi,

I’ve solved it. I did some scripting error. But I would like to edit the pre-loader. Is there any tutorial to do so?

Thanks.

Hi,

The CSS pre-loader is a CSS3 animation, not a GIF image – so requires more work to edit it, as you can’t just switch the GIF file.

Unfortunately there is currently no mention of this in the documentation – an update is coming soon which adds the option to use either pre-loader through settings in the custom.js file.

It will be a few days before this update is ready however, so if you’d like the instructions to replace the CSS pre-loader with a GIF image file as soon as possible, please get in touch at support@cosmiclabs.co.uk and I’ll send them back to you straight away.

Thanks :)

awesome,would u lemme know how long u took to build this theme and did u faced rejection?

Thanks for your interest!

It took 1-2 months (I don’t do it full time) and was luckily accepted first time :)

I also created a comming soon page but rejected,can u help me to make necessary improvements.Link below; http://designfolio.tk/Avari/Avari/

Looks like a good start, but the typography and general layout needs improving – and there’s a few issues on mobiles.

Start a thread on the Item Discussion forum of Themeforest http://themeforest.net/forums/topic/item-discussion/26 and authors will give you more detailed feedback and advice.

Good luck :)

I;m unable to install this theme… it gives me the following error message:

Unpacking the package… Installing the theme… The package could not be installed. The style.css stylesheet doesn’t contain a valid theme header. Theme install failed.

Anyone know how to fix this?

Hi,

I’m sorry but Finely is an HTML Template not a Wordpress theme – so it can’t be installed into Wordpress. Unfortunately there’s no way around this.

I’ve given you further information and advice in my reply to your support email.

Thanks :)
