Hi, how to make the video-toolbar to display under the videos for posts of “Standard” post format ??

Video-toolbar is only shown for posts which used the post format “video”. I did some editing in the single.php but couldn’t get to display the social icons although the Video-toolbar can be seen now. http://tv.jamsplay.com/?p=1049

Hi

There is an option to show the video toolbar for standard posts in Theme Options > Single Post > Enable Video Toolbar for Standard post

Hi, Visual Composer seems a bit deep to navigate but I do want a page builder that remains developer friendly when I outsource code work.

1. Can I use a different page builder with this theme? (e.g. Zoom, SiteOrigin) 2. Can I install more than one on my site with this theme?

Hi, I need to use a page builder with this theme for future edits. Will VisualComposer work, How about SiteOrigin, Zoom Builder? Other(s)?

Thank you for your immediate reply. I need to buy a theme today.

Hi,

Thanks for interest. We integrated True Mag with Visual Composer plugin. Some shortcodes are written for this plugin, and some demo pages are built using this page builder. Thus, if you do not use Visual Composer (which is included in the package), you can still use other page builder plugin but you will lose some shortcodes. Other features work normally.

With the the mentioned membership plugin, will members be able to upload their own videos, or is it an Admin only feature?

Hi

Membership plugin is used to restrict premium content from public content. It is not related to uploading video from front-end. Currently, you can only upload video from back-end (admin).

Best regards,

CactusThemes

Will this feature be added in future, or is it planned?

Hi,

We haven’t got a plan to build front-end upload. It’s kindly complex for such a theme.

Hi, a similar question has been asked – but – but what I need is on the homepage to have a video player embed where the slider is – not a slider for posts, not an image, i just want an iframe with the videojs player or another premium player [I already have] that has playlist categories also.

Currently I will only use self hosted videos.

I have also tried to eliminate the background color of the header/classy player – but could not find anywhere a reference. Appreciate your help. Also placing a post on ticksy :)

OK Please follow ticket

I don’t understand: please follow ticket… I did, yesterday already, and just now checked again, there is no reply to my ticket on ticksy

Hi,

We are processing that ticket. Sorry for making you wait.

Hello,

On the category pages I have this field http://i.imgur.com/UhglG71.png.

Where can I set the default option for this field so it affects ALL categories?

I have far too many categories to efficiently change each one manually.

Thanks.

Hi,

You just let it be “Default” for all categories, then go to Theme Options > Blog > Blog Layout to set default layout for all categories.

Best regards,

CactusThemes

Thank you

issue closed.

Disregard this i reposted my question

I have a problem with the first image (aka featured) inside my article body. In the backend, the image is wrapped around a div and it is not displayed in the frontend.

If I remove manually the div tag, or add id=”post-thumb” to it, it is displayed properly, however I have too many posts to do this manually.

Any suggestions?

example post

  • In addition, the image is not shown on firebug. Only the div and the a tags.

Hi,

I’m sorry but the link is not TrueMag, isn’t it?

Hello,

I am trying to export all videos and import them into a new Wordpress installation. Do you know of a tool or an easy way to do so? Or really any way to go about that at all. I have A LOT of videos.

Thanks.

Hi,

You can use default WordPress Import & Export tools at Tools > Export > WordPress

Best regards, CactusThemes

It will export the video fields as well?? Ok thank you!

Yes, all metadata (video fields) are kept.

Best regards,

CactusThemes

I am wondering if you can display only certain categories on the main page like “Recent” and “Popular” for example and nothing else?

Thank you

Hi,

Yes, it’s possible. In the main page you build the content freely and create any possible layout.

CactusThemes

Thanks!

EDIT: Figured it out It was a rogue menu making the mess!

Hi,

Yes, it’s MashMenu plugin. If you do not use it, just deactivate it :)

Hi, I’m wondering if this theme can be used for other content. I’d like to know if I could create a magazine style design with text and images as opposed to videos.

Thanks, Martin

Hi,

Yes it’s possible. You can use it as a magazine site with standard posts.

Hello,

I face a problem in installing the TrueMAG shortcodes plugin. I tried deactivating all the other plugins in case there was a conflict. But still I get the following message:

object(WP_Error)#390 (2) { [“errors”]=> array(1) { [“plugins_api_failed”]=> array(1) { [0]=> string(219) “An unexpected error occurred. Something may be wrong with WordPress.org or this server�s configuration. If you continue to have problems, please try the support forums.” } } [“error_data”]=> array(1) { [“plugins_api_failed”]=> string(2) “N;” } }

Could you help me?

Thank you in advance!

Hi,

Please submit a ticket to http://cactusthemes.ticksy.com and leave your site URL + admin account so we can check.

Best regards,

Hello again,

The other problem is that the person who created the envato account does not have access to his codes and cannot therefore provide me with the necessary license numbers that I need in order to submit the ticket. I do though have the receipts that prove that I purchased the theme.

The url is wordsmithproduction.com

Kind regards, Nefeli

Hi

In that case, you can contact us via our profile contact form on ThemeForest. Please include the receipt information in the email content.

Hi, I purchased Truemag theme and I’d like to change those headings (names) – “Featured, By Category, Vimeo and YouTube” into smoething like “New Releases, Categories, Dailymotion and Self-hosted”. Please how can I change those headings?

Thanks, it works.

Best of the best regards,

Saw.

Hi, sorry I’m not finish yet. :D I want make search form like this.

What I have to do? I did this step from documentation,

Advanced Search Form

Gameplan package includes premium plugin Advanced Search Form (ASF). The installation file is in /Installation Files/Plugins/plg-advanced-search-form.zip. Following these steps to integrate the ASF into TrueMag: Step 1. Install ASF plugin Step 2. Go to Appearance > Widgets and drag Advance Search Form widget into Search Box sidebar. Check “Show categories list” and “Search suggestion” checboxes. Leave “Title” empty. Step 3. If you would like to configure advance things, go to ASF Settings page (look for menu item in the left).

And I added that Advanced Search Form Widget into Headline Sidebar, it happened..

Hi,

The Search widget should be in “Search” sidebar.

Hi, Great theme but does anyone have the french translate of this theme ? I begun to translate with Poedit but the .po file is veryyyyyy long ! So, if someone did it, it would be really nice and cool to share :) Whatever, I continue to translate the theme (still I have the courage) and I share it for who needs :)

Thanks :)

:) Thanks for using True Mag. We are having an idea of sharing such language files for the users of True Mag. Are you willing do join?

Best regards,

CactusThemes

Hi, Yes, I am willing to join you and share my translation as soon as it is completed :) Best regards, Auréline

Thanks. We have prepared a github repo for the translation. Please check and see if you can pull request to this: https://github.com/cactusthemes/truemag-languages

Hello. Does your theme support auto youtube video upload?

Thanks.

Hi,

Sorry, no. But you can use this one: http://codecanyon.net/item/youtube-wordpress-plugin-video-import/4429742?_ga=1.141852794.936950638.1404815327 to faster import videos (compatible with TrueMag)

Best regards, CactusThemes

In list I have in the sidebar, ::before is added after each LI tag. How can I prevent this? It interferes with plugins I am using.

Thanks.

Hi,

::before is a feature of CSS3 to control appearance of elements. You cannot “prevent” that. What you need to do is to write custom CSS to fix the conflict.

Please submit ticket to http://cactusthemes.ticksy.com and leave URL of page where you have the conflicts. Our staff will help you to fix.

Best regards, CactusThemes

Anytime there is an update, it would be great if you could specifically note which files have been changed. That way, for those of us who may have made customization’s to the theme, we can know which files to update or pay special attention to.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your comments. I got your point. We have put the change logs in product’s profile page. However, to specify list of changes in specific files requires a lot of efforts.

We will keep that in mind to improve our working process.

Best regards,

CactusThemes

1 – In the template against which user registration screen? 2 – It is possible an administrator of the page approve sending the video made ??by the user?

Hi

Thanks for interest. Regarding your questions:

1. If you use Buddy Press, this is the login page: http://demo.cactusthemes.com/truemag/buddypress-login/ Otherwise, you can use default WordPress login page.

2. Yes, you can set the default status of post sent by users either “Publish” or “Draft”. Admin will approve the posts afterward.

Best regards,

CactusThemes
