HELP! I bought this theme and tried to upload the zip file to my WP, but it said that my installation failed because: “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

Please help!!

No worries. You are just uploading the wrong file. Have a look at this article: http://docs.codestag.com/article/30-missing-stylesheet-file

Thanks!

Great Theme! How do I create a author page that shows all contributors?

Easy! Just create a widgetized page and add the “contributors” widget ;) For more information refer to the online docs: http://docs.codestag.com/category/101-initial-setup

Hi, I’ve been looking for a visual blog theme and Ink is great! A couple of questions:

1) Is it possible to have a portfolio or gallery of photos with captions, in addition to Blog posts?

2) Is there an option for a chronological archive beyond the Categories on the menu bar?

Thank you!

Hi there!

1. Not out of the box, but you can always have a static page with jetpack-powered gallery where you can show your photos.

2. Nope, I’m afraid not.

Thanks!

Hi, I’m debating between your Ink and Om themes for my blog and I had a few questions about Ink:

1) For the post metadata (date posted, x minute read, author), is it possible to add the post category using custom CSS?

2) Is it possible to remove the “Share On Twitter / Facebook” buttons or to replace the buttons with icons (like the ones used in Om)?

Hi there!

1. The category name at OM is already there by default. For Ink there is a setting to show it, under the customizer. I have enabled it for you.

2. There is an option to hide them as well, under the customizer.

Thanks!

Thank you for enabling the category name in the demo, it looks great!

One more question…I noticed in both Blink and Ink on the single posts page when I make my browser window wide enough, the feature image appears to get cut off a little bit at the top and bottom. Does that have to do with the size of the specific image being used or is it due to something else?

It definitely has to do with the image. The featured image section adapts to the dimensions of the viewport every time, so it resizes and crops the image accordingly.

You will always have some loss at some sections of the featured images when you resize, you can’t predict the dimensions of the browser window each time ;)

But it is reasonable and it does not affect the overall appearance. Thanks!

Hi, the preview isnt working?

Hey! Sorry about that, seems it was issue with our host. I just made sure it works fine now, please check and let us know if you have any questions. Thanks :)

Hi, My host is a managed wordpress acount and has banned the Yet Another Related Posts Plugin. Is there a way around this to get related posts like in your demo? Thanks

hi there, there is a built in feature for this. Just enable it under the customizer. Related posts are “connected” via tags. In order for a post to show as “related”, it should share a common tag with the post that the user is currently viewing at the front-end. Try adding the same tag for both posts, and it should work correctly.

If you have any other questions, please use our support service at https://codestag.com/support/

thanks!

That’s perfect thank you. Also as I plan to have multiple authors on the blog I don’t want all of them to have their own profile. Do you know of a way or a plugin that will enable me to have multiple authors without assigning them each with a role within wordpress? Thanks

Hm… nope, to be honest I have not heard of something like this so far

On the demo navigation that page is called ‘post with video cover’ so I’d presume I’d be able to add a video cover? Screenshot below

http://prntscr.com/5adp0e

Ah yeah, got it. Sorry, we had removed the video cover when we were updating the content some weeks ago. Thanks for the heads up.

But as I said, I did put the video cover back for you. Please check again.

Thanks!

Hi

The video header doesn’t seem to work (http://demo.codestag.com/ink/2014/04/07/around-the-world-in-a-coffee-cup/).

It just shows a static image? How do I set a video header background for the homepage?

Hi there

This is not a video cover at that post. It was not supposed to show a video. Also, Video covers only work with single posts pages, and not for pages and the homepage.

Hope this helps! If you have further questions, feel free to use our support system at https://codestag.com/support/

Thanks!

Hi

I’m confused. Why is it called post with video cover if that’s not possible?

I’m confused too. Where do you see the “Post with a video cover” at the demo? For me the title at the link you shared is “Around the World in a cofee cup”. In any case, I did put back the video cover again for you to see. But as said above it will not work on the homepage.

Please check again: http://demo.codestag.com/ink/2014/04/07/around-the-world-in-a-coffee-cup/

There is a fallback to use the featured image on homepage/archives pages.

Hi, Is it possible to count / measure the amount of times someone clicks a stag tools button? I wan’t to use this as a download button but need to track the number of downloads.

Hi there!

I’m afraid this is not possible, but I guess there would be a plugin for this out there. I have not seen something like this so far though…

I already found a solution to this. When using the plugin jetpack any outgoing link clicked in your website will be shown in ‘statistics’. =)

Great, thanks for getting back to us!

PreSaleQuestion: Hi Codestag,

I like your theme very much and would like to know: > can I use embedded video (vimeo/ youtube) for post? > will you include a “search” option and select by “tags” in the future? > does your theme work with WPLM (Multilanguages)?

Thank you for your answer! PeterPan2

Hi,

Thanks for your interest in one of our themes.

Yes, you can embed Youtube and Vimeo videos in post in any theme among the listed ones here. Search options and select by tags are default widgets in WordPress, and again it can be found in any theme.

As for the WPML, we don’t provide any compatibilities but it would need only need a little changes in theme. You can hire someone from Envato Studio to do this for you.

Thanks.

Hi Codestag, in the Stag tools box, it have “Social” section with many social integrations. Where is it displayed or how i can get that input values?

Hi there

Under Settings > StagTools you will see a “Social” tab. There you can add links for some of the most common social networks and output them anywhere in your site by using the following shortcode:

[stag_social]

Hi, I really like this theme. Was wondering if a horizontal navigation bar is possible / available for it.

Nope! Not available for now. Just at the sidebar :)

Hi there, Since last update the Google Analytics (code) doesn’t work anymore. GA worked correctly till last sunday, but since last monday it shows no data and no visits to the site, but I know there has been.

When using the Google Tag assistant in Google Chrome I get the following results/errors: No HTTP response detected, Missing analytics.js script and Code found outside of <head> tag.

Is there anything you can do to help?

Hello,

Can you make sure that the code you’ve pasted under Customizer for Google Analytics doesn’t contain any script tags? If so, please remove it. And if it still doesn’t works, please submit a ticket – https://codestag.com/support/

Thanks.

Yeah, the link http://docs.codestag.com/article/338-related-posts-do-not-show is also what i’m looking for. Don’t know that option. Thank Codestag!

How can I add related articles widget to this theme, like in demo?

Hi, please refer to this article from our Knowledge base: http://docs.codestag.com/article/338-related-posts-do-not-show

You should assign them the same tags and enable the feature through the customizer. If you need further help, please use our support service at htttps://codestag.com/support/

That’s exactly what I wanted to know! Thank you :-)

Hi Codestag, i think it’s better to change footer navigation to breadcumb and change the left “THANKS FOR CHECKING OUT INK” section to related post(s) section. If it can be, this theme is far more fantastic!

Hi, this is just a text widget, you can change it with any widget you wish, and definitely with a “recent posts” widget :)

Thanks!

Hi, the support section on your site is not working at the moment. Since the last update, when you click on ‘blog’ on my site, the page automaticaly scrolls down. Is there a quick fix for this? Http://www.kristofdevos.com

Hi Kristof, please try again:

https://codestag.com/support/

Otherwise, just reply to one of our last emails, and we will see it in our dashboard. Can’t tell what the issue might be, I’ll need to assign it to one of our devs.

Thanks!

Thanks! It seems to be resolved after clearing the cache and minified css a couple of times.

Thanks for letting us know! Cheers!

My captions on images inside posts do not show up on the image like in the demo. Instead they show up beneath the image. How do I make it look like the demo?

Hi, it’s hard to tell what the issue is without having a look at your site. Please open a ticket at https://codestag.com/support and we will gladly have a look.

Thanks.

I bought this theme and am very happy! It has many many great features (particularly for this price) and is well designed to serve the needs of technically not extremely versed publishers. For the very few questions I couldn’t answer myself with google research I got very fast and helpful support from Ram Ratan. Thank you very much! :)

Thank you very much for the kind words! We are very glad to see that our efforts on theme development and support are being appreciated by our customers :)

Thanks again! Cheers!
