Yet another fabulous design from you guys. I am always excited to work with your themes because of their clean, straight forward back-end design filled with positive surprises.

I am currently using Safarica and the visitors feedback has been superb. But I feel like freshening it up this year and I LOVE your Voice Theme. However it’s for a personal blog, not magazine so the Safarica personal intro slider has been invaluable to me!

It would be great if that would be available in this theme. Any work around or ideas of transforming it more into a personal blog?

Is it possible to add a picture and social media links into the welcome text?

Yes, this is actual page content/editor so you can add anything you want there ;)

On the 1.2 Changelog you put the following:

Added: Authors Page Template – Lists all your blog authors automatically on this page

I don’t see this Author Page Template when loading the voice_demo_content.xml

I figured this out.

Yes, basically you just need to create another page and set authors template for it! ;)

Meks Team,

Great job on the theme. I switched over from Throne but there are still a few bugs on Voice that are holding it back from being complete. Here are some things I would like to see fixed/changed.

1. On Iphones on Safari the sticky header is very buggy and wonky. It was much smoother on Throne. At times it will pop up how it should and other times it will jitter.

2. The featured area. Where to start? It looks great but it’s much too dark, especially if you’ve got fantastic photo’s where you want to showcase them. I’m wondering if there is a way to fix this through CSS or a way you could add a feature to the theme at some point to adjust the opacity levels of the featured area.

3. The featured area on phones isn’t ideal. If you didn’t know you could swipe it left and right from using it on the desktop you might not know it on the phone. Is there a way to perhaps add arrows on the left and right by default without having to touch it so that readers know that there is more to the left and right if they swipe. If not a lot of articles will be lost by the reader. Or if possible I’d like to see implementation of a larger version of the featured area like you utilized on throne.

Hi

Thank you for your kind words, it really means a lot to us. We are really trying to improve all the aspects of our theme and if critics, like yours, is constructive, we will accept it and try to improve and fix stuff that is needed.

1. I have already made some changes, you can check it our on demo until update is approved. Right now sticky header doesn’t flicked anymore it is hidden on scroll down and it is showing on scroll up.

2. We can send you additional CSS, you can ping us on our support@mekshq.com email and I will send you tweaks.

3. This is interesting because it is more of UX matter :) It makes sense to add arrows by default when you are on mobile screen because user needs to know that he can scroll. Larger version is also nice solution but then you will loose feeling that slider has :) and user will have to scroll down because there will be a lot of posts. I will add this to update list, we have already made submission for one small update, this improvement will go live in next one.

I hope that this helps and that we will get more feedback from you it really means a lot to us

Cheers

Thanks for your response I really love your service! I totally understand what you’re saying about #3 by considering that over 50% of Internet users are on their phones now it makes more sense to sacrifice something minor on the desktop in favor of phone functionality.

Hi. I’ve sent you emai couple weeks already but no answer.

I want to max out the pictures ,on the screenshot you’ll see arrow left and alright and i want to remove that,so the pics is maximum just like image feature single post http://m.imgur.com/2Vhd4DL

Whats te custom css for that? Thanks

hi, it doesn’t work, all the images below feature image on single post still have space on the left or right. I want all the images just like “featured image” on single post, so no white space on the left or right pictures. I sent you email again btw,

thanks

As you can see on the “featured image” no white space on left or right, so the picture is maximum size. And I want to able to do that, do I have to change entry-content size of something?

Hi

We have received email from you don’t worry you will get your response.

Thank you for your patience

“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.” I buy this and this is what I get?

I’m an idiot! Figured it out! Thanks!

You are welcome :)

I’d like to view your theme – but there has been a server problem for some hours today – any ETA on when it will be available? Thanks

Hi

We are are still waiting for our hosting to migrate our sites. We had some problems on our server and we bought VPS today. They should be up really soon.

I’m inpatient as much as you are.

Thank you for your understanding

We are now back online, thank you for your patience

Stunning theme. I’ve been able to delete about 5-6 plugins because of all the options built into this theme.

I do have one or two small issue though. One is the with image galleries, it would be good to be able to turn off the theme image gallery for single posts or be able to over ride it with some other option.

Also the display of the (date, views, and read time) in single posts on my 4.3” mobile screen appears jumbled and all over the place no matter how few I choose to display in the theme options. But they seem to look fine on other screen sizes both bigger and smaller.

Hi

Thank you for your kind words, really appreciate it.

1. Yes, we well aware of this, a lot of people asked it and we will add this to our theme for sure.

2. Is this a issue on demo, too? Can you tell me do you use Android phone or iPhone?

The best regrds

Hi,

Not sure why but the second issue seems to be resolved now on my site, with the (date, views, and read time) displaying how i would expect on mobile. Also I’m on an Andriod phone.

Hi

I will investigate this issue, Android has weird issue of breaking links into two rows sometimes.

Cheers

Your theme is broken for screens from 650px to 1024px+ wide (check out this screen shot: http://www.freegamesnews.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/broken-theme-1.jpg). Also, for width between 1040 and 1200+px, photos width in single posts full width are only 630px wide, which is ridiculous (second screen shot: http://www.freegamesnews.com/en/wp-content/uploads/2015/01/broken-theme-2.jpg). Featured images are completely responsive while images in posts are not (at least in full width posts).

Voice is an awesome theme, I just bought it! But because of those issues, I’m not willing to implement it for now. I would need to know how to fix that.

Please pm me as soon as you can. Thank you.

Hi

Can you send us this screenshots to our email address support@mekshq.com. I have tried to access them and your screenshots are not working. I will provide you with a fix.

Thank you

Done! remove “).” for proper URLs.

You are welcome ;)

Hi,

we was considering to buy this theme, but the author’s website is offline… why? Is it solve soon?

Thanks

We are now back online, thank you for your patience

Thank you

You are welcome :)

Anyone having problem accessing the preview or author’s website ? I was considering buying this theme.

We are not thinking about implementing this,we will implement this it just a mater of time….

I hope that this is OK for you

Great. Of course this is ok with me. I really like your work!

Thank you for your understanding

Hi,

I have replied you to the support request with the urls i am having trouble with. I have also requested for the option of shortcodes for boxes and lists (bullets). I used the supreme shortcodes plugin, but even that doesn’t seem to fix the problem. The theme is stunningly beautiful, if you offer shortcodes for boxex, call outs and lists then it would be great.

This following is my reply to your email.

the website is http://www.alternativemedicinewiz.com

The woocommerce page is http://www.alternativemedicinewiz.com/shop

I have a couple of more requests.. Do you have a custom code for boxes and lists (bullet points). It would be great if you can provide this feature.

Also the facebook embed code is not working, I don’t know if I am doing something wrong. I just copied the code from the demo content and tried it in a post, but it is working (twitter embed code is working properly).

If you need admin access, then please let me know.

Best Regards

Hi, after theme customization still can’t handle with several important moments. 1) mega menu bug on ipad, please look, under images drop-down menu stick-out second menu http://i.imgur.com/rPD6OV0.png 2) Nav menu links on ipad in landscape page orientation just loading link after clicking instead of open drop-down image menu. 3) In footer bottom can’t place anything in the centre. After you choose centre, left and right location in options menu, it works only for right and left, if choose centre it always appear in the left side.

Hi

Can you send us your URL to our support@mekshq.com email.

I will add this to bug list and fix it ASAP.

Thank you for reporting this to us. Cheers

Hey guys, I love this theme! Fantastic job, it’s perfect for my needs.

Just a quick question though, how do I make my header logo stretch across the width on mobile? The logo looks lovely on the desktop:

http://thebreathingforest.com/

But on my mobile it’s tiny!

http://imgur.com/V7DQKpZ

Also, on the header that pops up further down the screen, the logo is a little bigger but I’d still like it to stretch a little more across.

Any help would be great guys, thank you!

Hi

Nice site you have there! Can you ping us on email and I will send you additional CSS with improvements.

Thank you

Hi, I am trying to buy the theme it’s saying, I am forbidden to access the page, can you please help

Hi,

You can buy the theme here with no problems. Our server is currently under some maintenance and hopefully it will be running fine soon so you can see live demo preview!

Cheers!

Hi, I am starting to design a site for my client, considering one of your themes: Throne or Voice. Today (Jan 7) I can’t see the Live Preview of the themes. I need to show it to the client to discuss the details…

Is this the temporary problem, or the themes are unavailable?

This is the message I see: „Forbidden You don’t have permission to access /redirect.php on this server. Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.”

thanks and best regards

Hi

We have contacted our hosting support to see what is happening. They have server reboot as I saw in status dashboard of our hosting.

I hope problem is temporary and that it will be fixed soon.

Let me know if you have some more questions I’m here to help

Cheers

Hi, thank you for the very quick answer!

So I just need to wait, until it’s fixed.

Yeah, we are not one of these guys that will take the money and run :)

I hope that they will resolve this really soon

Any idea why the top static menu flickers on mobile devices while scrolling? On my iphone, it looks like a flickering image!

Hi

Several people reported this problem, we are investigating this problem to see what is happening here and I hope that we will fix it in next update. We are publishing small updates on day-to-day basic so things like this are fixed fast.

I hope that this helps, let me know if you have some more question

Cheers

Hello.

A few questions:

1. I have an ebay affiliate which requires Javascript. Can I place this javascript in a sidebar and it will show? using a few themes I have bought before, sometimes this totally messes the site up. If this does totally glitch the site out, will you provide support until it is fixed?

2. Can I insert content (such as banner ads) in between the modules found on the homepage?

Thank you!

Hi

Yes, you can be sure that we will provide you with a fix. You can send us test code and I can run it on my test site and tell you if its working fine.

I hope that this is OK for you

Cheers

Hello,

Ok I am glad you will supply a fix if I have issues. I will email you a javascript code which is an image ad (250×250) to test. It should go on the sidebar but please also test by pasting it in a page content also.

Email sent.

Thanks.

OK, thank you

may i get photoshop files if i buy

thanks

Hi,

Unfortunately, we do not have Photoshop files as this theme doesn’t have any graphics. All styling is done with CSS coding.

Cheers!

I just bought the theme.. It is stunning, really great work. It is loading faster than most themes and has all the features any blogger would need.

My only issue is, I am using this theme in a website which also has woocommerce shop, but the shopping page is not well formatted. Any plans of providing support for this issue?

Best Regards

Hi

I have sent you email with a request for URL, looking forward to your response.

Hi

Double message here, but I have sent you email ;)

Cheers

Love the look of this theme. Do you still have plans to incorporate woocommerce? and if so, do you have an estimate timeframe?

Hi

Thank you for showing interests in our theme. We will work on this and I hope it will be ready for some of next updates. A lot of users asked us for this and we are now ready to start working on implementation woocommerce.

Let me know if you have some more questions

Cheers

Thanks so much. Once again, really nice theme. :-)

You are welcome :)
