Hello. 1. Is it possible to make tiny margins between pictures in portfolio list. Now pictures are completely next to each other. My site: http://maciejodrzywolski.pl/works/ 2. Why there is a difference in sharpness between e.g. “portfolio list” and “galery with no margin”. In galery no margin, sharpness of pictures is visibly low.

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

I bought this theme a couple of weeks ago and have since created my site, which works well, except for the mobile version, where I’m experiencing a serious problem.

Viewing the site ( http://www.paulligas.com/) on a smartphone in portrait or landscape (tested on an Sony Xperia, iPhone 5c with iOS 8.02 and a Lumia 720 with Windows Phone 8.1) or on an iPad in portrait mode (also iOS 8.02) the Home page and the Freelance Portfolio page cannot be scrolled or clicked – no galleries can be opened. The menu can be clicked, and menu items load.

All of the other pages, including the galleries, work perfectly – you can scroll and click images.

With testing, I discovered that quickly starting to scroll as the page is loading works briefly until the scroll stops leaving you unable to scroll up or down or open a gallery. Reloading the page is the only option.

Also, grabbing the menu bar allows you to start the scroll, which again freezes when the scroll stops.

Additionally on an iPad, it works in landscape mode when the menu is at the left side, but turn the iPad to portrait and the menu goes to the top and then the problem appears (again, only on Home and Freelance Portfolio). Turn back to landscape and it works.

Any suggestions? As it is this pretty much breaks the mobile version, so I’m not keen on showing potential clients my site until this is fixed. I hope you can help.

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

this has now corrected itself… I suspect that there was an issue with the hosting server, as I’ve made no changes to anything in WP. Thanks for your response.

Ok, bought your theme a couple of months ago and I have a couple of problems.

1. We are trying to do the about page, 90% of the website is done, its an architecture studio http://www.proarh.hr/ but for some reason it is unusually difficult. I have imported the xml file but nothing appears under the menus or any kind of sample page that could be usable. Tried also doing similar page by myself and also nothing. Were are we going wrong?! Could you tell us the simplest way to do this since we are in the architecture field and know very little about programming…

2.Tried to create fancybox or masonry page, as seen in documentation Pages-Add new and Page attributes but we don’t have a fancybox or masonry option at all, why is this?

Doesn’t work anymore with the tinyMCE modal

Thanks Adam

I made the page background color for the site black because I wanted the gallery background to be black, but it made every page black. Can I have the galleries be black without every page been black?

Hello. I just downloaded this theme and received 3 error messages. They are:

Am I missing some files? What does this mean? Thanks!

Hello, thank you for the purchasing!

Upload the theme to server but not a local computer to see if this helps.

Hello, thanks for this cool template. I can’t manage to display some pictures, for exemple the social share icons, the mobile menu picture. I’ve not changed anything in the source code. Can you help me ? Here is my website URL : http://www.hirajoshi.com/

I’ve tried, empty my cacher but nothing happens. Is there a specific setting ?

I’ve re-install the theme and reset options but i still have this problem… :(

Hi there! First of all congratulation for your theme!

Then, i would like to know what kind of portfolio (or page?) should i set like this one http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/portfolio/nike-woman/ in order to have Title > Description > The line about date, client, file under, link > Pictures.

Thanks!

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Use portfolio post type and select Images Portfolio type from Portfolio Settings meta box.

thanks for the reply…by the way I already set portfolio posts with images (selecting Images portfolio from the settings) but the result is always images on the top (whatever slider type). I would like to set in a way like your demo page http://demo.megathe.me/skylab/portfolio/nike-woman/ where the post layout is title, description and then the static images below. How could it be possilble? Many thanks!

Hello! Thank your 4 this awesome theme!!

Can you please tell me how 2 add custom shortcodes? Let’s name it ‘print_button’

I think I did everything right:

In the appropriate places of shortcodes.php I added the following:


<add_shortcode( 'print_button', 'mega_print' );

and


/*
 * Print Buttons
 */
function mega_print( $atts, $content = null ) {
    extract( shortcode_atts( array(
        'url' => '#',
        'target' => '_self',
        'style' => 'white',
        'size' => 'small',
        'window' => ''
    ), $atts ) );

    if ( $window == 'true' ) {
        $target = 'target="_blank"';
    } else {
        $target = 'target="_self"';
    }

   return '<a class="print_button '. $size .' '. $style .'" .="" href="'. $url .'">' . do_shortcode( $content ) . '</a>';
}
add_shortcode( 'print_button', 'mega_print' );

In the appropriate place of tinymce.js I added


if (styleid != 0 && styleid == 'print_button' ) {
            tagtext = "["+ styleid + " url=\"#\" window=\"true\" style=\"e.g. orange, blue, green, yellow, red, pink, purple, black\" size=\"e.g. small, medium, large\"]Print me[/" + styleid + "]";
        }

So 4 this step I was presuming 2 get a new option inside of page editor drop-down menu of shortcode section in WP dashboard. With the exact same functionality as “button” shortcode. But the new option does not appear.

I scanned all the files of my site & checked WP tutorial on shortcodes. Those 2 files seem 2 b the only ones I have 2 edit 4 getting new shortcodes in drop-down menu.

What am I missing?

Why would I hire somebody? Didn’t you read the above? Just need 1 line of code. THANK YOU 4 GREAT QUICK SUPPORT! Will post the solution here.

It’s complicated for me to know which code you need to use, even to understand which one line of code you need to use can take hours of work for me, that’s why we would suggest to hire a developer to help you with this modification.

You have some custom shortcodes already implemented in your theme. They r different from the WP default. I think u know how u done this. I just need 1 shortcode “Buttons” completely dublicated with another name.

I’m using the slider gallery and the caption is overlaying the image. I was wondering if there was a way to have the text beneath the image, between the image and thumbnails?

and is there a way to change the caption text to black? I’m not seeing that anywhere in theme options.

I have gotten most of the code to work. I just need to know how to lengthen the caption line so it doesn’t wrap.

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

Hi,

how can I get the title under the image and above the thumbnails for mob, tablet and desktop? See link: http://bremell.com/skylab/skylab_text.jpg

Hello,

Ever since receiving an email about the revolution slider vulnerability I’ve been having problems with my pages using the fancybox gallery>

1. The photos are no longer organized as they were before. There are empty spaces between pics. example: http://www.visualarchitect.net/photography/

2. Previously viewers would be able to view a photo individually and SLIDE (using left/right arrow keys) to the next, and or close out of that slider environment to then view multiple pics at once. This is no longer the case. The pictures now go to it’s own page once it’s clicked on. I liked how it was before – on a slider template. -The downfall to that was there was not an easy way for viewers to share the individual images by using a link. Is there also a resolution for that? -Is there a way to incorporate meta-slider with fancybox?

3. My video page is having the same issues as the photos. Example: http://www.visualarchitect.net/video/

4. WordPress reps get confused as to why the images are not loaded into a gallery. They are just loaded into a page as recommended by SkyLab. What is the difference and are there benefits to loading to a gallery?

Thank you

Hello, deactivate your additional plugins to see if this helps.

Hi, that was one of the first things done in trouble-shooting. The additional plugins other than wp database backup and google fonts, etc… have been deactivated for a week. Should I also deactivate jquery horizontal slider?

I’ve noticed when I set a page template to portfolio the layout is different to that if I set it up via theme customization.

I’d like to have the portfolio through theme customization menu to display the same as the portfolio page template.

you can see the difference here:

http://alvinnguyen.com/sample/ – this is with a page template (I can use this but would like the menu to expand from Main > and then show the filter/categories. <—I want it to show like this. http://alvinnguyen.com/portfolio-category/stills/ – This is the theme customization. <—I’d like the navigation to work like this

Could you advise on how I can obtain this?

Hi, use Portfolio Fixed Width page template.

Sorry perhaps I didn’t explain too well :/ I wanted it the other way around so that the page displays as the ‘portfolio’ template not the full screen portfolio template.

However the pages I’m trying to change are under the menu portfolio categories and there is no option in there to change the template.

Is there a work around for this?

Hey there, one year ago cynthiaprince14 asked you :

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

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

As many people here, I would be interested with that feature, are you working on that promised update?

Thanks

Hi MegaTheme, Wire looks great, will you share it as promised before? Thanks

Hi, sure, email us via our profile page.

Thanks, I sent you a mail on your profile page.

Hello!

I had this same issue a year and recently encountered it again-my portfolio page is being listed blog style rather than by image: http://judyleephotography.com/portfolio. I made the same corrections that worked last time but they are not fixing the issue now (save Permalinks and making sure line 194 in functions.php was false).

Hi MegaTheme,

I created a page with a gallery list (Recent work) and I created a dropdown menu named Series with one gallery. Except this gallery called “H two O” also appears in “Recent work”. Is it somehow possible to avoid this?

Please have a look if you have the time: http://www.mathijshanenkamp.com/recent/

Hi, just bought this. Trying to set up the front page. Do I have to edit the images so they’re all one size? Its looking like a hot mess.

http://www.voxeluxe.com.au/

Also for 1 image/square – what’s the best format for display? Posts/Gallery or Portofolio?

um, hello! Updated it a bit and I noted the dimensions on the docs. How do I remove the black line between the left side and the gallery? same website

Hi, thank you for the purchasing!

Yes, you will need to crop theme.

Use timberwolf.css style.To install custom styles for your site navigate to Appearance > Theme Options > Style and add styles from the “styles” folder to “Custom CSS” block. You will need to download not Installable WordPress file but All files & documentation where you can find the “styles” folder.

Does Skylab support third party commenting system like Disqus?

Hi, it’s not something we test I’m afraid.
