hi there! first of all, I’d like to thank you for creating such a wonderful theme!
could you please check out http://f5lab.kr then you could see what’s happening on grid layout. There are several empty spaces. How can I adjust?
kindest regards. Henry
oh, i found it! you don’t need to feed back on it, but thanks in advance!
Beautiful theme. Thanks so much!
I have a custom short-domain that I use with bitly. Can I plumb this into the site for generation of URL’s, such as with the highlight-text to post to Twitter?
Hi CleverWebs, Thanks to you for the purchase!
I’m not sure if I understand your question.
The theme use the links generated by Wordpress as any other theme. If you want to implement bitly short links I suppose that exists plugins for that.
I’ll search! Thanks mate.
I don’t get how the ‘link post format’ works – and I can’t find anything in documentation.
Hi simonbostock,
The “link post format” don’t work. Is suppose to appear hidden because is a feature “in development”, sorry.
Hello. How to show 12 articles (or all) but not 10 on home page?
Hi! settings -> reading -> Blog pages show at most
For the grid style frontpage I recommend you to set a number multiple of 3 (6, 9, 12, 24) to avoid blank spaces.
I bought and installed this beautiful theme but when I load the image of an author it appears distorted in the page author, you can tell me how I should edit the css to see images without distortion or disproportion?
Hi manueladimari,
Are you tried reuploading the image o trying with other images? Can you provide me an screen to check the problem? thanks!
I solved the problem, it was a wrong setting of the thumbnail. Thank you for support 
Hi there. Great theme, but I have found a problem. If you visit my website (www.tristemietitore.com) from a Mac it looks fine (whatever browser you are using), but with Windows 8.1 the mosaic grid is all messed up. It’s strange I’m using with both computer the same version of Chrome and screen resolution. Same problem with IE of course. How can I fix it up? It’s not usable at the moment.
Thanks for your answer. AB
Oh, nevermind, I found the trick reading the previous comment

let me know soon thanks great theme
Hi Darrenliiu,
To avoid blank spaces in the grid frontpage style set the posts per page option to a multiple of 3 (6, 9, 12, etc)
What a beautiful theme that I have ever met.
Is there possibility of making the “Next article” and “Previous article” to show the same category post? Should I modified “elements-nextpost.php”?
Thanks!
Exactly, zeals75,
Is possible but this is a custom mod and I can’t help you so much. You have to edit the elements-nextpost.php. The theme uses the function get_adjacent_post to get the next and previous posts, you just have to modify this function to include the param for the category term.
http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_adjacent_postThanks, Kohette. I’ll try it.
Ah…..I give up! Just can’t read these php code for myself.
If you can add this function to next update I’ll appreciate so much.
Because I want to offer a continuously reading experience on my personal blog. I have wrote various topic article. So I need my reader will keep reading with “next post” button.
Thanks, Kohette. It’s a great theme.
Hi Zeals75, I will try to check how I can implement this feature
Thank you very much!
Hi Kohette, I was successful. Thank you very much!
Why I add the Facebook like button code to “Post Content (Bottom)” and it always shown the newest article of my blog?
the code is following:
<script>(function(d, s, id) { var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0]; if (d.getElementById(id)) return; js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id; js.src = ”//connect.facebook.net/zh_TW/sdk.js#xfbml=1&appId=125547194278756&version=v2.0”; fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs); }(document, ‘script’, ‘facebook-jssdk’));</script> data-layout=”standard” data-action=”like” data-show-faces=”true” data-share=”false”>I have tried to add only:
<?php echo get_permalink();?>
and it’s work, it will appear the correct url of current post.
Here’s my blog: http://blog.zeals75.com
Finally, I use the Facebook like button plugin to solve my problem.
Just purchased, installed, and found that the wysiwyg editor is missing when creating a new post. I can go to text view and add content but that loses a lot of features I want to keep.
Hi SEHD
Maybe some kind of javascript error is impeding the load of the editor.
Are you using plugins?
Can you active the developer tools (if you are using google chrome) and look if it’s something happening in the javascript console?
Tried Aesop Story Engine – that removed editor. Then uninstalled Aesop – the editor never came back. Thinking that’s the issue…
Hi, there.
I’ve purchased the theme and am attempting to upload .wmv files for the video cover. However. whenever uploaded and within the 50 MB limit, the videos don’t play at all in the demo and in the published piece. When I upload .mp4 files, the video doesn’t play either, and the editor shows black instead. Am I doing something wrong and is there anyway to fix it?
Thanks.
Hi andrewpeng,
have you opened a browser tab with the post editor and other tab with your webpage at the same time? Sometimes, if the video is loaded in the post editor, the browser don’t play the video in the other tab. Is a behaviour of the web browser.
The recommended format of the video files is webm or mp4.
Hi how do you implement the Aesop Story Engine plugin (version 1.3.5+): example that you post on the description example.
Seems if you add the parallax the image wont go full screen. Even adding a name on the description will not fix the issue.
Do you have a tutorial how to make the post look like the example somewhere?
Thanks g
Hi ggean, as I know, the parallax component of Aesop Story Engine don’t allow (or at least, don’t recommend) to use percentage units for height, so it can’t be to full screen. The parallax of the example has 650px of height in the configuration.
Kohette, Sorry to keep asking for this but how this example that you had post on the description was made then?
I will like to mirror this solution if you can give me some color how to accomplish this will be really appreciate it!
http://kohette.com/wpthemes/literatum/example-article-with-some-aesop-story-engine-components/Best, Ggean
No problem ggean!
The parallax example of the demo has this configuration:
http://postimg.org/image/ogkph6vv1/ http://postimg.org/image/lld81somx/I got this amazing and unbelievable error: everytime someone try to get to a post using a direct link, we receive this:
Fatal error: Cannot use string offset as an array in /wp-content/themes/literatum/elements-bigcard.php on line 214
The only way to access the concent is from the front page, it seems. Please, is there a fix for this? Thanks.
I think I’ve found the culprit: Jetpack. But I really need Jetpack due to the top posts function. Is there a way to fix this? Would you know how to keep your theme with Jetpack?
Hi rebelo,
The theme is tested with Jetpack but I never experienced this problem 
checking the file “elements-bigcard.php” the file 214 is:
$via = $post->share['twitter']['via'];
Can you edit the file to see what happen? try to change the this part:
$via = $post->share['twitter']['via'];
$related = $post->share['twitter']['related'];
$hashtags = $post->share['twitter']['hashtags'];
for this:
$via = @$post->share['twitter']['via'];
$related = @$post->share['twitter']['related'];
$hashtags = @$post->share['twitter']['hashtags'];
Hi Kohette,
we were looking for a great template for our new website. We haven’t purchased it yet because we need to konw the possibilities of customizing it. - Is it possible to put the menu on the left side? - Is it necessary to have images in the mosaic-homepage layout? - Is there a PSD file included? - Do your recommend any Portfolio or Galery-Plugins to work with the template?
Thanks in advance. ppa media
Hi ppamedia_gruppe,
It’s not possible put the menu in the left side though the customize options of the theme.
In the theme you can select between 3 frontpages, the mosaic grid, a simple list of articles or a frontpage with the articles displayed in columns of 3.
No PSD file.
The theme works fine with the own galleries of Wordpress and the galleries of the jetpack plugin. I’m not tested any portfolio plugin.
Hi Kohette, thanks for the quick answer
If not via backend it is surely possible to switch the side by code, right? I surely can make the mosaic-items fit the full width of the page by css, right?
Thanks in Advance
Hi!
Yes, you can edit the php files or the CSS to adjust the theme to your needs. But this is a custom modification and I can’t garantice you a perfect result . Also, I can’t help you with this kind of custom modifications.
Hi Kohette! Just wanted to say that I’m very happy with the theme. It looks awesome and is very easy to use. Thanks!
Vielen dank quinquilitz!
Hi, I just purchased your theme. I love the look. But it seems it’s a bit difficult to use plugins, and now I have a custom post author plugin that doesn’t allow me to change the name of the author. Have any thoughts?
Hi thetravelingrepublic, Looks like some kind of conflict with a plugin. This plugin works with other theme? what plugin is?
This particular plugin is called Custom Post Author. A plugin called BBCode also wouldn’t work. But some other plugins do work when in the post editor. It baffles me, but my knowledge limits my ability to solve the problem. Let me know if you need any more info.
Can you set me up an admin account in your site and I check it out myself?
You can send me the credentials through the contact form in my themeforest profile. (let me know after in a comment to check my inbox)
Thanks for offering to take a look. I sent you a message through your profile. Dave
Were you able to take a look? Dave
So sorry for the delay Dave, busy days.
I downloaded the plugin an checked it inside and unfortunately it is not compatible with Literatum. The plugin modify the function the_author of Wordpress (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/the_author) but Literatum don’t use this function to display the author name in the headers of the posts, so this plugin is useless there, sorry
makes sense. thank you for taking a look!
Hello: I’ve noticed every once in a while a post will show a very teeny tiny title. You can see an example here: http://www.damnmag.com/nelly-furtado-makes-social-issues-pop/
What’s going on?
Thanks for your help Kohette!
In addition, the newest post I tried to publish does the same thing (small title), however on the homepage it doesn’t show a title at all. I have had to revert it back to draft mode because without a title visitors aren’t able to click through to the post from the homepage. But I could email you screenshots. A quick reply would be much appreciated. Thanks!
Sorry for the delay!
Have you the latest version of the theme? This issue is related with the strange characters of the entry’s title. I think is fixed in the latest version but let me now if it still happening.
The theme looks excellent and I like the minimal look.
Can you please let me know if this is compatible with GPL?
Thanks socialjeev!
sorry, what is GPL?
( I wanted to ask the theme’s license)
Oh! no, sorry, Literatum come with the default licenses of themeforest, without modifications. http://themeforest.net/licenses/terms/regular
Do you have any plans to switch the license to GPL – http://themeforest.net/collections/3516382-100-gpl-wordpress-themes ?
I will purchase your theme right away if it is licensed under GPL.
Not for now socialjeev, sorry.
Hey! A few days ago I asked one of my friends to help me purchase this theme with their account, and so far it’s been great.
However, I’ve ran into some problems.
· The ajax seem to be working just fine, however, on my site, it does not display the loading bar, which is weird. You can see pages load to different pages smoothly, but there’s no loading bar to indicate that. (The one that’s on the demo site)
·The visual editor does not seem to be working. The textfield is there but I can’t click on it and type in anything. I can only type in text when it’s in full text mode. Is there a way to fix this?
When I’m not using your theme:

When I’m using your theme :
http://www.jgzmz.com/using.png
At first I assumed this to be my browser’s problem, but I tried different browsers and even windows and mac to see if it works. And it doesn’t. It only work when I switch to another theme.
Basically here’s the two problems that have been a pain in my ass. I also should mention that I’m building a chinese site. You can check it out at http://www.jgzmz.com/news/
It would be really great if you can help me out with these problems. Thanks in advance!
Also I can’t type in the textfield in the theme options as well. The Website Slogan and Sidebar Bottom Firm field cannot be clicked and typed in value.
hi zhikuan,
I’m not sure but I think this problem can be related with the language, can you try to set the administration language of your Wordpress installation to english and check what happen?
Hey! Thanks for the reply.
I tried changing the default wordpress language back to English, but the problem still persists. 
Hi zhikuan, sorry for the delay.
Is very strange. If it’s not the language, I haven’t any clue of what could be the cause of this problem. Maybe any conflict with some plugins? I will try to find out, but if you find the cause let me know, please.
@Kohette its fine
I’m also not sure what the problem might be. But don’t worry, I’m planning to stop building wordpress websites and switch to another CMS soon. So for now I won’t be using this theme anymore.
But still, this is a really gorgeous theme!
I found a major bug with your theme!!
Please correct this as it is in your demo, and the webpages of everyone who has purchased this theme.
When I click on different menu items the Page title remains as the first page or category or post visited. The edit page/post also directs to this original page/post and not the currently viewed page.
Let’s say a visitor finds our “Portfolio” page via google. As they navigate the site the title of every page will be “Portfolio” rather than the correct page information.
Another issue this causes is with the custom Widgets you created. If you first land on a Category, you will never see the widget areas for post or pages
The only way to see the correct sidebar widget, page title in tab, and edit page/post/category button is to refresh the page.
Please correct this issue, as EVERYONE WHO PURCHASED THIS THEME, and your very own demo fall victim to this Issue!
Hello uberjuice,
Please, keep calm. This is a very common issue that happen when you implement AJAX navigation in a webpage, it’s not a major bug, it’s a very little one and it happen in a lot of webpages with AJAX navigation. The title of the page don’t change because with AJAX navigation you are not loading the entire page, but if, for example, you share the page the title and all the others things are all fine. Exists techniques to correct this “title don’t change” issue but I think it is not have a major importance and this techniques slow down the navigation time.
