Hey there, I like this template a lot but CANNOT adjust the size of the Logo at the top left of the page. I’ve adjusted all CSS properties and it’s not working. I need to make the Logo bigger. Also your support registration won’t accept my purchase code. PLEASE HELP!!

Hi, is this fully static HTML; or, how much PHP is powering this?
Does this use any build system, such as Grunt; or, is this just built HTML?
Hi! It’s a static html template. If you need cms, then consider Wordpress
where can I find the collect of icon ?? I couldn’t know what’s the name of any icon.
Hello! What icons are you referring to?
I want to use the “Pin” icon, but I don’t know the name of that icon, so where can I find a collect name of icon ?
If you mean the Pin icon within the lightbox, there is no option to change it.
I need the list name of icons. I need to know the name of any icon I want to use. I need you define that for easy to use. Thanks
Most of the icons used in the template are font awesome http://fontawesome.io
Thank you so much! so I have the problem with this line in script: “jQuery(’.is_masonry’).masonry();” and that throw error: “Uncaught TypeError: jQuery(...).masonry is not a function”. How can I fix it?
Did you make any changes in the template code, because we do not have this error on our end.
I notice in the code references to a password protected page. I could not find one in the archive file. I would like to use this to redirect to a Smugmug account for my clients. Is this possible?
Hello! We do not have this option in the HTML version.

I’m considering the HTML version of Oyster. Does it come with a blog, or do I need to get the WordPress version too?
Hello! If you want to have a blog on WordPress, then you need WordPress theme.
Hello, I’m wondering what framework Oyster was built on? It doesn’t appear to be Bootstrap but I’d like to know so it would be easier to make mods myself. Do you have a stylesheet guide? Thanks.
It is not bootstrap based. You can read the documentation for obtaining information.
mad_dog, thanks for the reply but the documentation covers basic mods such as colors, changing content, etc. I already know those things. What I’m looking to do is create new pages based on the Oyster theme for my project.
For example, I need to create login/registration/member pages. I’m simply trying to create a small centered box in which to put a simple login form and have spent an entire day with no success. Your theme is great, that’s why I bought it, but I didn’t realize it wasn’t based on Bootstrap and would not be able to easily add pages based on the theme.
So I’ll ask my unanswered questions again:
1) what framework is the theme based on? 2) can you provide a stylesheet guide to help me create my own pages?
I’m asking these questions here, rather than your support form, to alert other potential buyers of the complexities of adding pages to the theme.
Thank you.
1. There is not framework used, it is HTML5/CSS3 website template. 2. Other customers do not have such issues. Please note that the customisation service is not included in the template price. We can help you with the basic changes or if there are some bugs occurs we fix them. But if you want to change the layout of the template design, it is a template customisation. You can read themeforest terms of use.
mad_dog, nowhere did I suggest I wanted YOU to do custom work for me, in fact, I clearly state I want to do it myself but your proprietary framework won’t allow for it. I’m sorry I bought your theme. Even though I like the look of it and it’s a high quality theme if I can’t modify or extend it myself because it’s not developed with a documented framework, then it’s useless to me.
While CSS3 is a standard, you have a proprietary implementation of it, undocumented, which would take a tremendous amount of effort to reverse-engineer your code to make any meaningful changes or additions. In essence, you are forcing your users to pay you to make modifications, even small ones. No thanks.
I’m going to build my project on a bootstrap based theme which has documentation, support and tons of code I can use from other sources. Good luck.
Frankly speaking the css of the template is commented http://www.gt3themes.com/website-templates/oyster/css/theme.css If you prefer to work with bootstrap, then pay attention to the template description while placing the order. Thanks
This is a really excellent theme – so many features it was a problem just deciding which ones to use. I used this to build my photography website – took a few days – and I now have a fully functioning site which works really well on computers and iPads. Many thanks to Mad Dog for making it so good. Highly recommended
Hello! Thanks for choosing my product and so kinds words. I really do appreciate it. p.s. if you have a minute, please rate the theme here http://themeforest.net/downloads

Hello! We do not use that browser for the tests, it is not popular.

Hello! Please upload the template to the server and then we will check it. It is hard to say what’s wrong on your local machine.
I have uploaded to the server, but still present the same problems I can give you too busy TeamViewer ID

I bought both the html & wordpress Oyster themes and absolutely love them. My entire site I use the html version, but I link to the wordpress Oyster theme for my blog. Everything is exactly how I want it, but the buttons don’t seem to be working for mobile. I only changed names to .htlm’s or images, or deleted elements/modules I didn’t want to clean up the .html file. I didn’t do anything drastic to reorder the html code or change the layout. Any ideas as to why that would be happening and how I could make this more mobile friendly? www.davepreciado.com
Hello! What buttons do you mean?
Hey mad_dog – I mean the Home, Photography, Blog, About, Tools & Tips, & Contact buttons at the top of my pages. They aren’t visible on Chrome on my Android phone, but work fine on Chrome on my desktop.
Ohh, you mean the menu items. Do you have the same issue on my demo page? What is the link to your site?
Aw man it works fine on your demo on my phone. There is a small menu that lists the other menu items. Here’s the link to my site. www.davepreciado.com Perhaps I deleted a few lines that should still be in there?
Yes, it looks like you made the changes in the template that affected its work.
I’ve compared my .index with the original file I downloaded and I can’t find any difference between the two, other than me deleting specific lines of theme elements I didn’t want. The bit of code that I thought pertained to mobile browsers <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1”> is there. Am I incorrect?
Did you make the changes in css?
I changed custom file background to transparent, and the text color to #ffffff – that’s it.
I do not know what changes you made, but the template that is available for the download at themeforest does not have such an issue. Please download the entire pack and check it.
Hey there mad_dog, thanks for your graeat template! I just have one issue, I’ve noticed that i lost this small menu symbol when i check my website on smartphone (when resized). Is there particular place in code where i could find it?
Hello! You have to check the template on mobile device, not by resizing the browser.
Hey, I’ve tried on mobile device, it seems that i lost somehow menu_toggler and logo while using it on mobile device.http://www.dawidimach.com/test2/
The provided link is broken 404 page not found
Sorry, my bad i’ve moved it to main directory but still can’t figure out that menu thing. Www.dawidimach.com
These files are missed on your end http://www.dawidimach.com/img/retina/logo.png http://www.dawidimach.com/img/retina/oyster_sprite.png It looks like you had incomplete theme update.
Great! It workes now! Thanks for your help. Somehow directory retina wasn’t uploaded.
Nice to hearing that everything is ok. That’s the reason why we ask to update the themes via ftp to make sure that all the files were uploaded

Hello there, Very nice theme, i like it!
My question is that the contact form is not working. I searched on your support desk but can’t find a answer.
and also where can I find the mail.php?
Greets, Mitchell vd Berg
Hello! Thanks for the purchase. Please check contact_form folder. There are 2 .php files inside. You have to modify contact_process.php
thankyou! my last question is; where can I edit the size of the photo’s at the gallery_ribbon.html page?
It would be better if you post this request to my help forum and you will be assisted. Thanks
Hi Mad_dog, very nice theme !
However, it seems to me that the function portfolio_addon() which is use in portfolio_masonry.html does not work.
For example, if I specify 20 entries for the variable items_set and if I declare load_count : 10 in portfolio_addon() the “load_more_works” button appears indefinitely.. (Instead twice)
Can you please give a look at the file sorting.js which contains the function.
Thank you very much !! Yoan.
Hello Yoan! Please post this request to our help forum and we will check it. Thanks
Hi,
I notice that when the vertical striped home page is minified, the overlays become visible but do not fully cover the background images. I’m not sure if this is deliberate or some kind of error!

Hello! It is not an error, you have to test the site on the most popular screen resolutions. I recommend you to use this online tool https://www.responsinator.com/
Also, I want the header to NOT be “position: absolute”, but when I change it , it puts a space of 81px above it. Thanks again!
Hello! Please post this request to my help forum.
