Hi there,

I followed the instructions here: http://www.mosaicpro.biz/blog/coral-how-to-change-the-skin-12.html, but I can’t manage to get the skin changed … :(

Can someone please help me?

Thank you for your time and consideration.

Respectfully,

Edouard

PS: Has someone integrated this with Laravel?

How to make input spinner with vertical to be an inline element?

Hi there,

I bought your themekit not long ago and I’m currently trying to figure out the best way to strip down the admin-angular theme, so that I can implement it into my app.

Can you give me some advice on generating a bare-bones version of the admin-angular theme?

For example, I’d to generate a version of admin-angular that only contains the essential UI items, as well as the default layout, basic views/routes, without all the extras (charts, etc, etc).

Is there a combination of grunt commands that I could use?

Overall, I’m looking for a way to create a base to work from.

Also, is there a recommended workflow for themekit? What are the steps that I should take to go from generating an initial theme, to customising it to implementing it?

Are there any best practices?

Also, when I generate a theme. It seems that absolute paths are set within the theme-core.js file. Is this intended?

Basically getting paths set to for example ”/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/staging/themekit-3.6.3/dev/app/js/themes/admin-angular/angular/config.router.js” and ”/Applications/MAMP/htdocs/staging/themekit-3.6.3/dev/app/js/themes/admin-angular/angular/main.js”

UI table not responsive how to fiexd it.

can i apply the fixed layout in the music theme? really interested in buying this stuff. thanks!

How to globalize/internationalize/localize?

If I start from empty dist folder and then run:
npm install
bower install
and then:
grunt build:d --theme social-1
or even:
grunt build:dm --theme social-1
I get the output message, that everything went just fine:
Done, without errors.
If I then try to open index.html or even blank.html, I get the following result in picture:

The resulting dist folder actually lacks of a lot of files. Please explain in details, how do one exactly builds working social-1 dist theme from dev sources and provide such information in the docs in future.

Is this happening on a fresh downloaded copy or have you modified anything?

The grunt commands you’re using are correct, so I’m not sure what happened.

Are you sure there are no errors in the grunt output?

It happens on a fresh downloaded copy. Build does not complete minification for example – that’s why there is no vendor.min.css file and 404 error. You could try to download a fresh copy and check it by yourself.

If i run
npm install
I get the following message in the output:
npm WARN optional dep failed, continuing fsevents@0.3.5
What does it mean and what are implications of it?

Hello, my client purchased your theme. It’s really great. Also, as I’m working with django, it was a very nice surprise to see that you’re using a similar templating engine. Now to my question : I browsed the documentation but as I’m not entirely familiar with node/npm/bower/grunt, I was wondering how I could build my own theme out of the components that you provide. Say, I want to use the maps from the real-estate theme, combined with the social-2 user profile, and social-1 sidebar… and add my own components (say, frontend custom components with special brand colors). Is there a way I could create a directory, then simply add the sass components which I actually require. The doc explains how to build the themes that you provided. Not sure if this makes sense… Thanks!

Issue: vendor-core.js (non-minified version) actually contains minified version of jQuery.

What are asset bundles and asset modules? Whar are the differences between them? And what are the differences between such commands:
grunt build:d --theme kit_or_theme_name
grunt build:dm --theme kit_or_theme_name

build:d will generate asset bundles (for example module-bundle-all.js). Practically the bundle it’s a file that includes all the application scripts bundled together, while build:dm will generate a dist version using separated module files (for example module-forms.js, module-media.js, etc). build:d is recommended for development as it’s much faster.

You can see what each separated file includes by taking a look at the dev/_grunt.config.json file.

The following command:

grunt --min false build:d --theme social-1

results in:

Loading "concurrent.js" tasks...ERROR
>> TypeError: Cannot call method 'indexOf' of undefined

Running "build:d" (build) task

Running "setWatch" task

But:

grunt build:d --theme social-1

works just fine. Looks like a bug.

Yes, we’re aware of the issue. This issue has been fixed already and it will be available with the next update (soon).

What tools do one exactly need to build the dist from the sources, what versions are required, where to exactly get it from and how to properly install all of them?

Thanks! I think it’s worth mentioning about it in the docs.

Yes, we’ll update the docs as soon as possible. If you have any other suggestions, please let us know.

There is also mentioned, that ruby, gem and bundler are required. What are they used for?

1) Downloaded the package and unzipped it into “d:\themekit”.
2) Installed VirtualBox and Vagrant with default settings.
3) Changed “synced_folder” setting in “d:\themekit\vagrant\Social.yaml” file, so now it looks like:
synced_folder:
  from: d:/themekit/
  to: /home/vagrant/social
  type: nfs
4) Opened command prompt with administrative priviliges and changed dir to d:\themekit
5) Run “vagrant up” command. Result:

Yes, well the issue is in the error itself. You also have to create a SSH-key and provide the path to it’s pub file within Social.yaml:

authorize: /Users/lazabogdan/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Unfortunately I can’t give you any details regarding the actual process for generating that key on Windows, but here’s a guide from Bitbucket:

https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/BITBUCKET/Set+up+SSH+for+Mercurial

There is nothing about it in the documentation that you provide. You should at least mention all the required steps in your documentation. Without it, unfortunately, your docs are useless for those who does not have required level of expertise in technologies that you propose to leverage to use your themes.

Sorry about that,

We’re working on improving the documentation as soon as possible.

Hi, how I can setting for source map sass, than I can see on dev tools where is file scss. like it http://prntscr.com/670xm8 , it’s my other project we can see the .scss path.

sory for bad english, thanks.

Are you using the grunt tasks we provided or you’re using something custom to work with the scss files?

yup.., I’m using themekit’s builtin grunt task.

up… up

Please, how do I unhide(show) NOTIFICATION for mobile, it’s currently hidden. Kindly help. Thanks!

Hi apjemma,

Not sure about what notification you’re referring to. Could you send us a screen shot?

Thanks.

(1) http://1pluscool.com/themekit/1.png (2) http://1pluscool.com/themekit/2.png (2) http://1pluscool.com/themekit/3.png

Those should explain it.

Also, how do I make my main navigation behave EXACTLY like the Sidebar Hambuger behavior in mobile view, to slide out from the right instead of dropdown as how it currently behaves. I still want to have the logo on the left as well. Thanks in anticipation!

What has happened to the Angular version of the Real Estate theme?

Hey,

Just letting you know the Real Estate – Angular version is available.

Thanks.

I purchased your theme yesterday and it is a very solid package. However I can’t get get the main stuff (e.g. map on real estate sample) to work.

A lot of references are hard-coded to the root of the site using ’/js/....’. However all my theme files are located at: ’/themes/mytheme/content/themekit/js’. Is there any way I can set some sort of basepath for the theme?

Hello. Is it possible to use “social-3” user profile/timeline style while using “admin” styles as base? This question comes because I saw a little differences in class placements in html.

Hi Team

When are you releasing the real-state angularjs version?

Cheers Gaurav
