Hi Kaptinlin,
Just wondering, in the button shortcode, how do i put in a link to open in a “blank” or “new” window instead of opening in the same page? For example on this page http://zimbabweinternational.com/services/web-design/wordpress-themes/ i have links to demo’s but they are external and when i click them they load in the same window and users will have to navigate back to try find my site again?
Hi Nojule,
You can use the code below
[button size="medium" linkTarget="_blank"]Button[/button]

Thanks for your last response Kaptinlin. I think you’ll have a nice site for your gallery once we’re done. I’m trying to change the background for the header introduce section without changing the feature background. How would I do that with a color and an image.
Hi ronmkraft,
You can use custom css code below
#feature {
background-image: url(YOUR_BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SRC) ;
}
Look forward to your site. Let me know when you finished it.

KaptinLin
Is there a way to control the header introduce background for archives, posts, blogs, etc so that it is distinct from the homepage slider background. The #feature CSS code that you have me controls both and I want them to be different. Thank you.
Hi,
For the different css code,
you can edit ‘header.php’
locate line 42,
Replace <body /> with <body <?php body_class(); ?>>
Then using
.archive #feature{
background: url("Your image src") no-repeat scroll 50% 0 #000000;
}
You can get more info about body_class from http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/body_class
Regards
KaptinLin
There is no reference to in line 42 of header.php
What is some sample code to use in the Homepage Content Editor to get it setup like your demo page?
Thanks!

Hello.
Is ther a way for me to change the table background colours from the default grey to another colour? Same question for the tabs, I want to change the colour to something else.
Thanks
Hi xiant,
For table colors, You can use custom css code below in striking->general option page.
.table_style th
{
background-color:#EEEEEE;
}
.table_style tbody
{
background-color: #F9F9F9;
}
For tabs background color, you can use custom css code below
.panes {
background-color: #F9F9F9;
}
Other elements of tabs you can use the options in ‘striking’->‘color’ options page.

Hi KaptinLin. I did the update to 2.3.3, and there is a problem with the height of the Slide Show (Anything, setup 440px). The slide looks in 350px now… Regards, Roxx

Hi, I use Drop Caps short-code in my posts. They do appear properly when in the post. On the home page of the site or in the blog.. they are missing.
You can take a look here:
OK on this page: http://a-life-from-scratch.com/chicken-parmessan-with-a-twist/
Not OK on this: http://a-life-from-scratch.com/
Do you have an idea how I can fix this?
Thanks!
Hi cglantz,
You can go to ‘striking’->‘blog’ option page to enable ‘Display Full Blog Posts’ option.
Then go to the post use <!--more--> tag to break the post.

KaptinLin
Hi,
I tried this but it doesn’t work.
I turned that option on and used <!-more-> but nothing changed.
Could you please help! 
Thanks!
Hi,
Can you give me a permission to your wordpress, I will help you test it.

Hey! Thank you for an excellent theme! Highest rating! 
What is the best way for me to make Blog TITLE come under blog PICTURE ?
Not in single-post, but in the list of blog entries.
Eirik
Hi Eirik,
If you use blog posts shortcode, you can edit on ‘striking/framework/shortcodes/blog.php’
Move line 50 to line 48
Then the code 47-53 will be<article class="entry entry_<?php echo $featured_image_type;?>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2 class="entry_title"><a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf( __("Permanent Link to %s", 'striking_front'), get_the_title() ); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php if($image == 'true'):theme_generator('blog_featured_image',$featured_image_type,$width); endif;?>
<div class="entry_info">
<?php if($meta == 'true'):?>
<div class="entry_meta">
<?php theme_generator('blog_meta'); ?>
</div></div></article>
Or, if you using blog page setting in ‘striking’->‘blog’ option page, you can edit on ‘striking/loop.php’
You can move line 18 to line 16
After done, line 15-19 will be<article class="entry entry_<?php echo $featured_image_type;?>" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>">
<h2 class="entry_title"><a href="<?php echo get_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf( __("Permanent Link to %s", 'striking_front'), get_the_title() ); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></h2>
<?php theme_generator('blog_featured_image',$featured_image_type,$layout); ?>
<div class="entry_info">
<div class="entry_meta">
</div></div></article>

Excellent! Thank you very much!
Hi Kaptinlin,
Thanks for the awesome theme! I have a question which will probably be quick to fix.
I have implemented your theme for my website here: http://www.oakwood.thehundredth.com/?page_id=132
I have not altered any code. And this is a fresh Wordpress installation.
No matter what settings I change, or which colours I choose, I can’t get the Title\Description section to appear on my pages (shown here on your live preview in the black section at the top: http://kaptinlin.com/themes/striking/features/layouts/)
- I have added text into the “custom header introduce text” field - I have chosen my background colour - I have experimented with selecting both the “default” and the “title only” radio buttons.
Thanks for any help you can give!
Hi
You can go to ‘striking’->‘general’ option page to turn on ‘Introduce Header’ option.
Hope this will helps.

KaptinLin
omg so simple
Thanks a lot mate!
Hi,
Is it possible using the portfolio layout to link to a video that is hosted on the website other than the flash format? like this:-
http://www.zealousmedia.co.uk/portfolio/video-examples
This uses an HTML page with flowplayer running the video.
Thanks
Chris
Hi ZealousMedia,
Portfolio doesn’t support this yet.
I will think about it in the future release.

hi,
the layout design seems to be fluid (stretches to each end of the web browser)...is there a way to make it a fixed layout?
Hi sebastya,
Not sure what you mean.
It’s fixed layout.

Using the shortcode to create ‘toggles’ the first section of text (line or paragraph) I can’t get a hard return to work.
Attached jpgs show and example with an opening line followed by a hard return – yet when you view it on the site there is no return. Same thing when starting the text with a paragraph rather than a single line of text.
Any thoughts on where I need to go t correct this?

Good evening
Just bought this theme, everything great so far.. except…
For some reason the Twitter widget on the home page isn’t pulling any of the tweets.
Is there any additional configuration necessary apart from adding in the twitter username (which I’ve confirmed as correct?)
NOTE : I’m placing this within a fourth column using
[one_fourth]
[twitter username="THE_USER_NAME_HERE" count="2"]
[/one_fourth]
Any ideas?
Cheers
Hi simmonet,
Not sure what happens.
Can you give me your page link?
Regards, Kaptinlin
Not sure either.. but it’s working now!
Thanks for the prompt reply, (and great theme!) appreciated
You are welcome!
Is there an option to add a specific background image to each page header or feature header instead of just color?
Can the feature header height be easily changed?
Finally, is there an option to put a frame around the page instead showing as wide view only?
Thanks
Hi
For specific background image you can take a look at http://kaptinlin.com/support/discussion/comment/1548/#Comment_1548
The feature header height is auto adjust by its content.
There is no option for a frame around the page.

Hi Kaptinlin!
This theme is unparalleled, I sincerely thank you for such great work and excellent support. I am a little stuck with a few things and would love for you to help me out.
First I am trying to get the caption to work on the homepage slider like in your example here: http://kaptinlin.com/themes/striking/features/3-different-homepage-sliders/anything-slider/ I have tried using the Anything slider and the Nivo slider and following the directions in the documentation, turned the captions on etc. But the most I see is just the title, but I’d like to be able to display 3 or 4 lines of text. Is this possible?
The second thing I am struggling with is the gallery (or portfolio). I will send you an email with the site and user name and password.
Best, Sarah Grace Barbier
Hi Sarah,
Nivo slider don’t support multi line caption. You can use anything slider for Caption with description. Put the description to ‘Excerpt’ metabox.
Will reply you for you email.

KaptinLin
Dear Kaptalin,
When I use:
href="http://petervandewetering.nl/images/pasfoto.jpg[/picture_frame]">http://petervandewetering.nl/images/pasfoto.jpg[/picture_frame]There wil not shows a picture in the frame and it generate’s a url: http://www.hrabonnement.nl/wp-content/themes/striking/includes/timthumb.php?src=http://petervandewetering.nl/images/pasfoto.jpg&h=126&w=106&zc=1
What’s wrong with my code?
Hope to hear from you soon,
Regards
Jochem
Hi jochem,
Timthumb doesn’t allow external image for secure reason.
You can try upload the image through wordpress media panel.

Hello,
I am looking for the shortcode for ONE pricing table. I see that they way it is laid out right now you have to create one table for each package. So, if there are three packages then I will have to create three pricing tables.
I would like to present all the options in the first column and then a check mark in the columns for each package, indicating whether this option is available in that package. And also possibly a way to highlight the most popular package. Is this shortcode available anywhere?
Thanks.
Hi xiant,
It doesn’t contain one pricing table shortcode.

Hi. I would like to list posts as thumbnails for specific category. Something similar to 4 column portfolio but for normal posts, and when you click on it, it takes you to the post.
I dont see how to do that.

ok, I think I am an idiot for not seeing the easy solution for my problem…
but how does the portfolio sorts its entry? I wanna display the newest stuff first and then go down chronological…
I tried editing the dates, but that does not do the trick for me…

Is there a way to display 2 sliders on home page…one above the other. Thanks for all of our great work. Yoiu are hands down the best in this business.
Hi ronmakraff,
For 2 sliders, you can edit on ‘striking/home.php’
Locate 10, add the code below
$type = 'nivo';// or 3d or kwicks or anything
$category = 'all'; // input the category title of slides you want use for the second slideshow.
return theme_generator('slideShow',$type,$category);
Regards,
KaptinLin
That didnt work out as planned. It added the second slideshow but the rest of the homepage content disappeared. I am enclosing the code below:
<?php get_header();
$home_page_id= theme_get_option('homepage','home_page');
if($home_page_id){
theme_generator('introduce',wpml_get_object_id($home_page_id,'page'));
$home_page_date = get_page(wpml_get_object_id($home_page_id,'page'));
$content = $home_page_date?>post_content;
}else{
theme_generator('slideShow');
$content = theme_get_option('homepage','content');
$type = 'kwicks';// or 3d or kwicks or anything
$category = 'FRONTPAGE2'; // input the category title of slides you want use for the second slideshow.
return theme_generator('slideShow',$type,$category);
}
$layout=theme_get_option('homepage','layout');
?>
Sorry,
It’s
$type = 'kwicks';// or 3d or kwicks or anything
$category = 'all'; // input the category title of slides you want use for the second slideshow.
theme_generator('slideShow',$type,$category);
