I would like to buy this theme but would like to know the following before I buy:
1.Can you show the front page grid without text or with just a text heading?
2. Can the grid boxes link to pages and not to posts?
3. Can the grey background be made plain white?
4. Can one of the grid boxes be a small slider – I really need to do this.
5. Can I move the grid boxes around to create different layouts?
Thank you
Hi,
1. Yes it can be done, but you’ll have to edit some of the template files.
2. Yes they can.
3. Of course.
4. There is a “custom content” type of a box in which you can paste arbitrary content. Note that this kind of a “box” can only be used on a front page.
5. Of course, there is a “Front page manager” which is used for adding/removing boxes and change it’s sizes.
Best
Thank you for replying to my questions.
On question 5 are the boxes restricted to sizes depending on what content is in the box? I think I am worried that I might purchase the theme and might not be able to the layout that I want to do.
Also can the slider fit into any size box?
Thank you.
No, each type of the box (big, medium, small) has fixed dimensions (both width and height), so they are always the same.
There is a “custom content” type of the box, so you can paste any content inside it’s textarea. I’ve seen people do all kind of things with it, but note that some modification from your side could be needed (probably adding some javascript).

Hi,
I have installed WPML and I have problems with the style. I have customized the theme in the default language but in the others languages appears another style, the default style. Could you help me, please?
Thanks and sorry for my English, I’m Basque so my English isn’t very good 
Hi, you have to set “Theme options” for every language seperatly.
So you have to switch language, in the admin area, and then go to the “Theme options” page to change settings for that language.
Best
P.S. Just be carefull not to have multiple tabs open with different languages.
Thank you. I have a lot of work to do!
Hi,
I have a couple of questions. 1. There seems to be a problem with the social icons on the main page. As soon as i hover above one of them, they all are marked with a colored background. Can I change this? 2. How can i get rid of the huge picture I have in each post. Its to big and i really dont need it on my post pages. Its the same picture i use as the blog post picture on the main page. 3. The social share icons dont show on my post pages, even when i enabled them in the theme settings. What can i do?
Thank you!!!
Hi! Thanks for a great theme.
Can you check why the sidebar is not coming back into position to the top when you scroll down then back up? The url is http://www.trescoolgadgets.com. Go to an inner gadgets page where there is a scrollbar, scroll down then back up down.
I’m on Chrome. OSX.
Hi, I’ve just tested this issue with latest version of Chrome on 10.10 (Yosemite) OS and slider does come back up.

Hello, the theme looks great! Actually I am thinking to purchase it but first I need to know if the following is possible:
1. Can I make the site look like www.thisiswhyimbroke.com ? I want to achieve the same effect, 3 photos in a row with the same size, some text and a button + infinite-scroll.
2. If the above is possible I would love to have on the right a newsletter box and beneath the newsletter box some advert box, would that be possible?
Best
Hi, it is possible but it will require customization so you should first search for some freelancer that can do this for you.

Thanks for letting me know!

Hello Guys
I am doing some simple customization to have the theme in Portuguese but I try my best to change the header title (the title of the browser tab) but i am not being able to locate where I can change.
These are some of the exampels I can not change:
1) This one is showing Yoga Archieves but I would like to change the word Archieves: http://boa-yoga.com/category/yoga/
2) Another example is http://boa-yoga.com/?s=yoga when showe You searched for yoga.
I tried to go file by file on the theme and I could not find, this is why i am asking for a little help.
Hi, purchased the theme weeks ago – cool theme by the way, but support is not responding to my two tickets and it is very urgent,

Hi, quick question – when viewed on a mobile, the top menu is always black (no options available in the Theme Settings page). Where/how can I change this to another colour?
Also, I’d like to use a web font that isn’t a google font (Harabara) – how do I do that?
Have done – no response…
Hi, sorry for keep you waiting, but we’ve checked and we can’t find your ticket. Can you send us ticket link (or ID) or open a new one?

I’m interested in your theme However before I buy would you mind answering a couple of questions?
When I post an article I like to divide the posts into more than one page using the <!-nextpage-> can I do that with your theme and does it automatically show pagination, so that visitors know to click on the next page?
Is the pagination a reasonably large size so the visitor is not likely to miss it?
Does the theme support adsense ads inserted into each article, for instance when the text finishes on a post can I place an adsense ad so that it would fit between the end of the article and the pagination that I was talking about previously?
Thanks
Brad
Hi Brad,
this would require small customization, so it’s not possible by default.

Hi,
I have a few pre-order questions:
1. Can I add similar posts area under posts? 2. The sidebar can be increased to 336px width so I can display 336×280 adsense ads? Also, the 336×280 ad can be inserted into posts ?
Thanks
Hi, you can set sidebar width anywhere from 100px to 500px (with an increment step of 10px), so yes you could set it to 340px wide.
As for the ad inserted into posts (I assume you want to insert it into grid layout), the answer is yes. There is a section in Theme settings which just for that: http://grab.by/zPkM. But you’ll have to insert it into the ‘big box’ (because medium box is 250px wide), or you could adjust box dimensions (this is done for all boxes via central theme setting) and put it into box of your choice.
Best
Thanks, it works. Another question: When I add the 6th page to the secondary menu its pushing the last one out and I’m left again with only 5 pages displayed. What it can be ?
Hi, can you open a ticket in our support system: http://pukka.ticksy.com/ , leave a link to your site and we’ll check it out.

Hi,
Nice, clean, and intuitive layout (especially for new visitor) Just small questions:
1. Can I post a single image without set the featured image? I’m afraid the image would not shows in the homepage. It will be great if visitor can click the image for better size (not like the “quote” post type, which is not click-able)
2. Talking about sidebar in homepage, may I know the best size for slide manager width?
3. Beside the 250×250, Can I insert another size in both homepage and sidebar widget? need an additional plugin?
4. I want to post a video link. Can I post a video post with mp4 video URL, and running with built-in video player?
5. Talking about the video, my vendor was offered me 2 type of links, embedded and video link/URL. can you covered them? Should I install third party player? I have a bad experience using player (most of them are not working on ios).
6. I want to make a “Facebook and Twitter – status ” post, Does your theme support the “O embed”?
7. Without the content, may I know the homepage size?
8. Stated on your feature that you are SEO Friendly, Can I use YOAST?
9. Can I create Sub Page? I mean .. my goal is to make the page load as simple and light as possible (thanks to your clean layout), so I want to make a sub-page (go to part 2 , section 3, etc.. so the page load is lighter).
Thanks
10. How to control the number of ad in homepage? can I use an ad/banner management plugin?
thanks
Hi,
thanks for your comment.
1. What do you think about single image? You can post Secondary Image which will be shown at homepage, or if you don’t have Secondary image, then Featured image will be shown.
2. You can choose width for sidebar
3. You are talking about banner? You can insert top banner also without plugin.
4. No, this is only WordPress oembed.
5. Yes, it supports oembed, this is how you are inserting Video or Audio Post types
7. What do you think? Homepage is responsive so it fits every resolution.
8. Yes, you can, but SEO friendly means that coding is done with SO best practice
9. Yes, but you don’t have pagination
10. You have one top banner and you have Front Page Manager where you can control other banners (for example 250×250)
Best
Hi,
Thanks for the fast prompt
5. just for the back up plan, just in case the embedded code is not working, and I must go with the video URL, how to insert and play? can I install JWPlayer?
10. Can you show me a screen shot or inform me a greater details about the ad manager? I mean how the repetition if for more than 5 banners (you offered infinity scroll, so how to make sure the ad show / repetition)
Thanks
Hi,
5. embedd code is working, for other player you’ll need to install something additionally
6. if it’s infinite scroll, then you choose position for example 10th and on every 10th box ad will be shown
Best
Hi,
5. I have videos and it can play using HTML5 player, should I install another plugin?
6. How many ad code that I can insert? Can I combine it with some banners (using ad manager plugin)? is that using widget feature (we able to insert lot of ad code)?
Thanks
Hi,
you should install another plugin, because we don’t have plugin within the Theme.
For ad code – you can insert ad codes as many as you want in grid boxes.

Hi, There isn’t seems to be a clear way to understand how to achieve the same homepage grid you have on your demo site. Could you please create a video tutorial as this is very frustrating.

Hi. This is an awesome theme! Is it possible to add a clickable button, which redirects to another website, to the excerpts of the blog posts on the homepage? For example next to the share function or in the text excerpt But it has to be visible on the homepage. Thank you so much.
Hi, you can edit very easily theme files which are used for displaying ‘grid’ boxes, so with some minimal css/js knowsledge you could do that.
Other option, to add a button, is to use some kind of a shortcode, or a HTML snippet, which you would place in your excerpt. I’ve seen shortcode there on a couple of sites and it should work just fine.
Best
One more question. Can the theme be used with the woocommerce plugin? Do you have any experiences with that? Thank you!
Theme doesn’t have woocommerce support, but it’s pretty light so I think it could be relatively easy modification. Of course you’ll have to have some HTML/CSS/PHP expirience.
Best
Thanks for the quick respond. Can i add a slider in the top of the homepage. And coming back to my earlier question concerning the buttons: Is it possible to just add a button short code to the post and will this button be visible on the homepage? Many questions:) Thank you!
Hi, there is template file which is used for front page, so you could modify it and add a slider.
As for the second question, I don’t quite understand how would (or where) you would add button to the post? Post excerpt is displayed in grid view, so if you want to use button, for example on home page, you’ll have to add it there. (But I think it would be easier to modify template file a little bit, then to paste shortcode every time).

Hello again:) I am like one click away from buying this beautiful template. I have one more question: Is there a way that I can have multiple pages like the main homepage on my website. Like lets say 5 pages that look exactly like the main front page but like Subpages? Thank you so much. Maybe you can give me an example or anything.
Hi there:)
Yes, you can have category pages with grid layout.
For example http://demo.pukkathemes.com/sympagrid/category/grid-category/
Best
I finally purchased the template. Very nice. How can I make sub page where posts, which are also on the front page, are shown by category in a grid style? For example a site where only those posts are shown that belong to category ‘sports’. Thank you
Hi,
please go through Documentation and it will be much more easier for you to set up your Web site. You can go to Theme Settings and you will have an option to choose for which categories you want to have grid layout.
If you need any assistance please write to our support system http://pukka.ticksy.com

Just figured it out myself thank you:) But another question: What can i do if I want to put a clickable button, which leads to another website, next to the share function under each post? Or if I want to put the button on the end of each post excerpt on the front page?
Hi,
you’ll need to customize theme in order to place the button.
Also, you can use Link Post Format if you want, then the link from this box will point to external Web site.

Can i change the height of the secondary menu?
Can you please write to our support system http://pukka.ticksy.com/ ?
Thank you a lot. I figured everything out together with the support. And I am really happy with the theme. Keep up the good work!
Thanks
If you are finding our support and theme satisfying, please rate it via ThemeForest and we will really appreciate that.
what is the best picture size to upload for the featured images on the grid homepage for each post. So they dont get cut of by the excerpt part? thank you
Hi,
you can upload Secondary image if you want to have different featured image. This is also explained in Documentation file.
Dimensions
small box: 225×145px (450×290px for retina displays)
medium box: 250×290px (500×580px for retina displays)
big box: 520×290px (1040×580px for retina displays)
Best
Hi, its me again:)
there seems to be something wrong with the dimensions of the picture you gave me. They at least dont work for me. If I use it like this, they got cut of on the side and the bottom. What should I do?
I am not talking about the secondary image. I mean the image that occurs on the front page in the boxes. Thank you
Hi,
secondary image is one that will be shown on homepage boxes. If you don’t have secondary image, then feature image will be shown.
This should be dimensions for Sympagrid. Please write to our support system (http://pukka.ticksy.com/) and send us link to your Website and login, so that we can check.
