Hello, I purchased your theme awhile ago, am still using version 1.5 and its working fine. It’s a very nice theme perfect for my type of use. This is not really a support question, and I see my support has expired anyhow, it’s just a general question. Today I noticed your new 1.9 upgrade so I wanted to ask: Must I absolutely install the new version? I’m using a child theme with many modifications and I realize a theme upgrade should not effect the child theme, but why take chances if its working fine now… unless there is a security concern or something I need to take care of. If I do upgrade and my changes are lost or messed up can I uninstall and go back to 1.5? Thank you.

Hi There,

Everything related to the theme, if will work / if will not, everything is and will be support questions. You are asking a question, that means you need support, more info here and here. We have to follow these guidelines to be fair to our customers who’ve purchased extended support. Thank you very much for your comprehension.

Installing the new update, is up to you. The theme update / changelog can be see in the item description / above comment and in the readme.txt file of the theme.

As for the security, is always better to keep everything up to date and you can save the version 1.5, in case something doesn’t work as it should!

Please note that the support is offered only through the = MAG Support, so please submit a ticket if you have any concerns with the theme, thank you!

Cheers :)

Hi,

i have purchased your theme and i am very happy with it sincerely.

I just have very small problems after importing everything and setting everything correctly, so probably you might help me fixing them and continue to enjoy this experience with Mag WordPress theme.

This is the url where i installed the theme: http://www.romanews.org

The ‘latest articles’ widget, is showing only 10 posts instead of 12, leaving blank a small space, how to fix this?

The second thing i wanted to change is: ‘THE NEXT BIG THING’ i wanted to add some more familiar names over there.

Thanks again for this great theme, Best regards RomaNews.org

Hello! Does the theme support the display of accented Latin letters and non-Latin letters (Chinese, Korean, Japanese?). In normal wordpress most of the fonts deployed have trouble handling accented languages like Hungarian and would not display accented letters properly in titles of posts, category names etc.(and this website [envato] also does not display them, tried typing now…) Thank you!

Hi There,

Yes, it seems I’ve made a small mistake adding in css -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; thanks for the notice.

In order to fix this, please open style.css file and go to line 63 and you’ll see this:

* { margin: 0; padding: 0; -webkit-appearance: none; -webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; /* < google chrome / Safari fixed issues os bad styling and opacity bug for owl-c. > */}

Please delete webkit-backface-visibility: hidden; and save the file and upload it via FTP, also you can change the file from Appearance > Editor > and open Stylesheet (style.css) file.

The theme was tested and works with Disqus plugin. Regarding the CSS issue I’ll add monday an update with the fix, thanks one more time for the notice.

Also, if you have further questions, please submit a ticket so I can further assist you! Support is offered only via email = MAG Support.

Have a great weekend,
Cheers :)

Or you can go to Theme Options > Style Settings > Custom CSS and paste this style:
* { -webkit-backface-visibility: visible !important; }

Cheers :)

Thank you! I did the latter option (I’m not very confident in fiddling with css), and it works now! :) Have a great weekend!

Hello friends!

hi main slider to big man. can you make smaller mail slider or can we choice it? will you do that ?

Hi There,

Currently It doesn’t support that. It doesn’t have an option to make is smaller, the theme has only one slider, and is the big one as per demo. You need to manually customize the theme files for that, so I would suggest that you seek the help of a web developer.

Also, if you have further questions, please submit a ticket so I can further assist you! = MAG Support Thank you!

Hello, I just sent you an email about a bug I found but its kind of important so I thought I’d post here also. The 300×250 ad link does not work. I added this code in the 300×250 Article Right Box:

<a href="http://yahoo.com"><img src="http://placehold.it/300x250" width="300" height="250" alt="banner" /></a>

And the box does not link to Yahoo. I just checked your demo site and your 300×250 ad box does not link to anything either (but your 728×90 does).

I’m surprised no one else has caught this. Please let me know when this is fixed, either here or by email. Great theme by the way!

Hi There,

This is the code used in the demo:
<a href="#"><img src="http://anthemes.com/themes/magfull/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/redimg.gif" alt="banner" height="250" width="300" /></a>
As you can see the link is ”#” when you see that it means it doesn’t have a link and nothing will be opened.

Now, your demo:
http://www.dropmocks.com//mHv3mh and the code from your demo banner, is the default one:
<a href="#"><img src="http://placehold.it/300x250" alt="banner" height="250" width="300" /></a>

As you can see you haven’t changed anything :)
Now, take a look here: http://www.dropmocks.com//mH0tqH is a simple theme and works perfectly :)

Edit: http://anthemes.com/themes/magfull/is-the-facebook-like-dead-for-marketers/ click the banner, I’ve added a link to it, click first Ctrl + F5 and then click the banner, and you’ll see it works perfectly. When I create a theme I test every single option.

Also, Please note that the support is offered only through the contact form on my ThemeForest Support page on the business days / hours, from 8:00 to 17:00 (GMT +2) within 24h in the order they were received which you can find it here: MAG Support

Have a great weekend,

Excuse me but if you read my post and email I said that I DID change the code in the Theme Options control panel, replacing the # symbol with a link. Under the Advertisement tab I entered this code within the 300×250 Article Right box:

<a href="http://yahoo.com"><img src="http://placehold.it/300x250" width="300" height="250" alt="banner" /></a>

As you can see I am using your default 300×250 image and linking it to Yahoo.com, but the link does not work on my post. I’m not sure why you still think I have the # symbol instead of a link. I will email you a screenshot of my Theme Options page so you can see it for yourself or I can even give you admin access.

As for your demo I’m not sure why you don’t have your 300×250 ads linking to anything. You obviously included links for the 728×90 to show that they work so it would be nice if you did the same for the 300×250 ads.

  1. Please, read again the comment for 300×250 the part with the (edit).
  2. Also, click again this: http://sandbox2.str8m.com/test-post-4/ like you can see everything works perfectly (if you click the banner will go to yahoo), is obviously that your server is using a caching plugin, if you read again the comment from the above, you’ll see that I’ve said click “Ctrl + F5”, again, when I create a theme everything is tested, and tested and tested to make sure that everything works perfectly. Mostly when something doesn’t work, is because the user / customer is new with everything / WordPress / Browsers and caching things, with all due respect.
  3. Be so kind and use the MAG support next time, thank you for your understand.
  4. Also I’ve replied to your email as well.

Cheers :)

just have a pre-sales question., is it possible to remove the slider and THE NEXT BIG THING from home page and start with the LATEST ARTICLES, hope to hear soon

Hi There,

Thanks for your interest!
Yes is possible to hide them with a small CSS line via Theme Options, I can help you with that via MAG Support after you purchase the theme. For your information, I’ve replied to your email message too.
