Hi, I installed the new theme and it looks good. But the documentation is very poor. I have installed the Home 4 (Demo 10) for my first Homepage. By doing this I need to create a slider (in your example called alias=”rev03”]. But there is no documentation how the alias=”rev03” is configured. Can you please update this?

Guys, I really liked the new Skylab, but as a suggestion, you should rename folder Skylab to Skylab2, or somenthing like that, so the update will create 2 dif themes. I´ve done that after seen a lot of issues with the update. And now I have a option to return to old one.

By the way, I don´t now how to start with the new one. All my portfolio are lost. Do I need to recreate all of them? The new theme should use the same pages and portfolios. But I even now how do to it. As I saw in the Documetion, do I have to create one by one using a hard code? The hearder for a Portfolio like “Client”, “Date” is manual?

One more thing, you should creeate a demo using Videos and other using photos in landscape, so I can see if it´s work fine.

Sorry my bad english. I´m from Brazil!

Hi, the theme has been improved in terms of design and code quality. You will need to re-create your pages.

My website doesn’t work with the new update theme! It’s a great update but I have problems with this!

Thanks

hello, i bought the version 1.2.3 and now i downloaded the update. how i can install the update without reinstall everything ?

regards tcarstens

Hi, the theme has been improved in terms of design and code quality. You will need to re-create your pages.

This is not the “Skylab Theme”, or what I bought, this is a completely different theme.Please get this fixed ASAP with a new update for Skylab, the old Skylab, with full screen slider option etc, that’s why I bought it in the first place, very annoyed and disappointed.

I wanted to buy this theme for some time, but after the new update it just lost everything which made me interested in it. Why did you change something which was really good into a clone of all other themes that are available here ?

Does this new version have the functions the old theme had, or is it so poor as it looks in the new demo’s ?

Hi, please sign in using the profile with which the theme was purchased so we can verify the account and purchase.

Hey. I didnt purchase the theme yet. I was going to and now it is nothing like the one before. Is there a way to purchase the older version of the theme ?

Sorry it’s not something which is included as an option.

after today’s update, my theme option all mess up! wtf !

A new update is always good news, but can you please tell us what has been changed? “It’s all new” is not descriptive enough. Are there new features? Does it contain up-to-date version of all its components? (e.g. sliders) Basically what is the value for me as a customer to update the theme? Thanks!

Hi, the theme has been improved in terms of design and code quality.

That’s not what I’d call descriptive. Developers normally provide release notes and are not ashamed of listing all components and their exact version numbers.

Hello, I have purchased the theme a while ago and I am sincerely hoping that one does not need to change the the look of my current website due to this update. Hence, I have a few questions regarding the ‘new version’ released this January 26th, 15. 1) Does it option to retain the rectangular 3 column portfolio look without spaces which displays titles and portfolio categories on rollovers?? I can’t find a rectangular option. 2) I am assuming one can retain second level dropdown as well 3) Also hoping one can retain single portfolio pages with the ability to add text, tabs and accordion options under each slider/video/image in portfolio pages? 4) Ability to add videos and images in slider on single portfolio pages and home slider? Thanks!

No we won’t keep updating the old version but design of the thene is almost the same actually, there is more an entirely new code than the design.

Thank you for your reply, but it’s pretty sad for a successful theme to ask past customers to indirectly bugger off isn’t it? These are the ones who helped the theme to become successful in the first place.

You have gone ahead and changed the entire front-end and that is not what we need. You know how much time it requires to organise the entire data and setup a site. You know it is difficult to take time out for people/studios to do this. Success of ‘Themes’ in general are a consequence of factors such as saving time as well as saving money. We had purchased this theme and were assured so called support to now find an entirely new front-end in it’s place. I appreciate your efforts to make the theme better but I am not sure if you guys have any service designers amongst you, but this reflects in a totally unplanned service delivery.

I think many others here have the same issue, not just me. Is it that complicated to maintain a ‘pre-2.0’ version so that it is compatible with the latest wordpress version. I don’t think so.

I urge you to consider it.

oh man… this update ruined my work in this website

Hi, looks it is because of version 2.0 of the theme, it is totally new. All the files had been changed. Please create a support ticket by following this link http://megatheme.ticksy.com/ and we will install an old version of the theme for you.

Hello. I installed the update and I lost everything! The site is empty! My page of acceuil became a page contact and the rest is empty. I does not include what takes place.

Thank you for making me my site as it was before the update!

Thank you

Hi, after update to version 2.0 I have the same problem like user “zipporah”

Hi, thanks for quick answer! Unfortunatelly this doesn’t resolve my problem. Site is still a mess. I cannot find a way to have my PORTFOLIOs displayed on homepage grid. Homepage is empty. Even contact page is broken down. And honestly I’m not interested in creating the whole thing from the scratch. Each project in portfolio and each page. How can I keep my site running like before with an update? Is it actually possible..?

Of course I done this update corectly:

Hi, first visit your downloads tab and re-download the new version.

Next activate default WordPress theme and uninstall old Skylab theme. After that navigate to Appearance > Add New Themes > Upload page. Select skylab.zip file. Press the Install Now button to upload and install the theme.

After uploading the theme, you have to activate it. Navigate to Appearence -> Themes page to activate the theme.

Where is the problem?

Hi, you will need to re-create your pages.

Hi. You really need to fix up your documentation, it’s very poor. It’s full of missing images. Also, some warning would be good about updating. You should give people information that updating to this new theme will destroy the layout of their old site. I’ve completely lost my menu and general styling throughout the entire site. It seems like you’ve rushed this and haven’t taken the time to notify existing users exactly what is being updated/changed, and you failed to notify them significant work is required to transform the “new” site to what existed beforehand. In the future please me more transparent and considerate with your existing users. Also I’m still awaiting you to fix up the documentation and give details as to what exactly was changed in the website with the update.

Hi, looks it is because of version 2.0 of the theme, it is totally new. All the files had been changed.

This info may of been useful before telling people to download and install the theme update. What has turned in to a 5 minute job has now become hours. Would of been good to know in advance. Also please fix up your documentation. Images that you refer to in the text are not showing up.

Is there something wrong with Skylab theme? I can’t override the style.css using child theme. Is an old child theme I use on Skylab before and it work fine, but suddenly stop working after I updated to Skylab 2.0.

Hi, looks it is because of version 2.0 of the theme, it is totally new.

I made new child theme for Skylab 2.0, but it still didn’t work. Suggestion?

Try custom CSS from admin area instead.

I’m totally impressed! Thank you for this big big big update!

This is why people should support developers like you by buying themes instead of get cracked versions!

Hi, I just tried updating theme and my site broke down. I tried to set up new home page, but it didnt work out. Maybe I updated theme in a wrong way? I restored site from backup and it’s working again.

How to update theme properly? Couldnt find any detailed info.
