Cant see a Changelog anywhere – most authors post changes on the items product page
looked on Forum, in the new files and cant see it.
thanks 
An overview changelog is available in http://support.forcg.com/topic/daisho-changelog but the truth is that over 20 things were changed. Most are not mentioned because these were minor updates.
Hi Does theme work with WP 4.2 and will you update Visual Composer?
It works with WordPress 4.2.
Daisho 2.2 with updated Visual Composer will appear shortly. It’s already uploaded to ThemeForest and it’s awaiting review.
I have set the portfolio as my homepage, but I want ‘New Blog Posts’ to appear below the portfolio gallery (I entered [recent_posts] into the portfolio page editor but it makes it appear above the portfolio gallery)
Any ideas how to make it appear last?
Post listing pages (such as blog, archives, search results, portfolio etc.) usually don’t allow static content.
The “recent posts” shortcode lists only four recent posts. You can use the default page template and mix [ns-isotope] with [recent_posts].
Sweet, that works. Thanks
I have discovered a problem with this, it appears to break the ‘toggle sizes’ button functionality on the portfolio. Is there a way to fix it?
Please make sure that you’re using version 2.2 of the theme. It should work normally.
Thanks, yes the update works thanks, although the 3rd shuffle button has disappeared?
It doesn’t have any useful function for your visitors. It shouldn’t be in the portfolio template either. It’s a redundant element.
Hey, I’m trying to disable comments on pages and blog posts.
I’ve been in settings>discussion and unchecked ‘Allow people to post comments on new articles’
I’ve also been into the example blog posts screen options and unchecked ‘post options’ and ‘comments’
However the comments box is still visible on the blog posts, is there somewhere else I should be looking?
Regards
[Settings > Discussion] should disable it if you’re using the newest theme version. In [Posts > (any post)] in “Screen Options” in the top right corner you can enable the “Discussion” box in which you can select or deselect “Allow comments”. It may be overwriting your general discussion settings. The mechanism for enabling or disabling comments in this theme is exactly the same as in the default WordPress themes.
I’ve done all that and I still see the comments box on the blog, do you know if the settings affect child and parent themes or do they have to be set for each theme?
Ah solved it, for some reason turning off the check-boxes on each post under the EDIT option doesn’t work. But if you turn off the check boxes under the QUICK EDIT option for each post it removes the comments boxes.
It doesn’t matter what theme is currently active. Most (like 99%) have the same mechanism. This setting is one of the WordPress settings and it’s not specific to any theme.
These checkboxes should work in both places. After each change you need to hit the blue “Update” button to save the new settings.
Hey great template, I’m changing the numbers of logos on widget footer 1 from 5 to 4, how do space them out evenly? At the moment they all sit right next to one-another on the left side.
Regards
Please follow http://docs.devatic.com/daisho/#footer and paste .site-footer .footer-client-logos img { width: 25%; } in [Daisho > Styling > Custom CSS Code].
Images appear one below another by default and we added a short piece of code to change that in style.css. It’s set to 20% by default.
Thanks, but I think you misunderstood my request.
I created a child theme and changed this
.site-footer .footer-client-logos img { width: 20%; max-width: 220px; float: left; }
to this
.site-footer .footer-client-logos img { width: 20%; max-width: 220px; float: left; margin-left: 3%; margin-right: 2%; }
If you changed the width to 25% and max-width (which I omitted by mistake) to about 280px or slightly less instead you’d have to upload larger images. Adding left and right margin or padding is also an option.
I’d also like to know: can I have 2 or possibly 3 separate Portfolios all hosted on 1 Daisho site?
Yes.
Hello! I’d like to add a SEARCH area to the portfolio page of my Daisho site. How can I do that please??
There is no need to have search results include portfolio projects or pages because they are all visible on the homepage of the demo website.
The only place that may actually have something to search for is the blog page. The search box is available there then.
If you will have multiple portfolio pages then still the search box is unlikely to be necessary. How many visitors will really use that? Probably very few and most will prefer to simply open the second portfolio page.
For about 99% of Daisho users the search box is a completely redundant element.
You can customize post types that searching works in in /core/search.php.
You can load the search box either using plugins (I think that even Visual Composer which is included has such element) or using get_search_form() in project-loop.php (which is loaded by template-portfolio.php).
Hi! Below is a quote from your answer to a question on your support forum regarding the removal of the WYSIWIG editor:
2) You still have WYSIWYG editor. And it’s better than before. Please switch the standard editor to “Visual” mode. It reflects how the post will look like more precisely than the previous editor and more importantly you’re now not limited in any way as to what media can you use there. Previously you could use images and videos, now you can edit this like any other page. You can even create more complex layouts with Visual Composer that is included with the theme.
We have the same issues, and the features described in your answer do not appear for us anymore than the original poster. We built our site back in 2013, and now, after upgrading, cannot edit our portfolios and have no controls.
Thanks for your help!
This answer is about removal of SuperSlide Editor which happened in v1.9.1 on 22 February 2013. Early versions of Daisho had SuperSlide Editor which allowed you to insert only images and videos.
Later (about 6 months after the theme release) we removed it because WordPress introduced their new media library which has features that SuperSlide had (reordering images, bulk upload, inserting multiple images etc.).
Right now you can edit your portfolio projects just like you edit posts and pages. SuperSlide Editor is not an improvement at this moment. If it was there it would limit you. It had to be removed.
Thanks for the reply! But we still have the issue of only being able to see one image in our previous portfolios.
I’d have to take a look at it to see what happened. Please create a support ticket. Please make sure to update your profile information with your WordPress login and password.
When updating from some 1.x version to the newest version you should start seeing [slide image="" other_options=""] shortcodes in the content area. One for each image. They should still work.
Thanks! Creating ticket now.
Hi,
Thanks for a great theme! I have two questions:
1. Do you have a suggestion on how to implement a news slider like the one on this page http://bathfestivals.org.uk/ beside the portfolio boxes on the front page? 2. Is it possible to get the meny to “stick” while you scroll down in this theme?
Thanks in advance.
1. I think that the newest Daisho version allows static content to be inserted on portfolio pages but I think it’s only above the thumbnails. You could use [ns-isotope] shortcode on a standard page template. Please use it with the newest development version of the theme.
2. There is no such option in the admin panel but you could use plugins or inserting the the following code at the bottom of /js/functions.js would be the first step to the solution that shows the theme’s compact header after you scroll the screen a little bit:
( function( $ ) {
'use strict';
$(document).ready(function(){
$(window).scroll(function() {
var scroll = $(window).scrollTop();
if (scroll >= 300) {
$("body").addClass("compact-header");
} else {
$("body").removeClass("compact-header");
}
});
});
} )( jQuery );
You’d also have to create a copy of compact-header CSS class in style.css that would not hide the original header (because there’s a slight jump of the content because of that). Please create a support ticket if you need the full code.
Really nice theme!!! One of the best porfolio themes. I want to ask youm whats the typography of the Daisho logo?
Thank you! I think the logo uses some standard font (it was probably Arial, Open Sans or Novecentowide) and the individual letters have been slightly modified to create that logo.
Hi, great looking theme. Is there a way to keep the posts static in the grid view (like a sticky?). I’d like to keep the same information in each grid and change them at my will. is that possible?
Thanks!
Is the theme compatible with the latest wp version? Can i include videos in the portfolio ormix togheder videos and images… or when click on the image to oppen video in lightbox (popu window)?
Thanks!
Yes, it’s compatible with the newest WordPress.
The thumbnails can’t contain videos (and it’s not recommended to have them there) but projects can have any media, just like normal pages or posts.
Hey, great theme!
I’m having issues with SVG’s and uploading them. Specifically the logo at the moment. I’ve uploaded it using the insert media, the file uploads but it does’t display anything.
Can you help me?
It has a rex (x) icon as if the image can’t be displayed
WordPress doesn’t allow uploading SVG files by default. The theme enables that functionality in /core/allowed-upload-mimes.php. Once this is allowed you should be able to upload them normally. I can upload them normally.
If they can’t be uploaded then WordPress will typically display some error message in that place. If there’s no error message present then there still may be some error. For example the folder in which it tries to save the file may not be writable. There are other possible causes as well.
To resolve this it’s best to contact the hosting company because it seems to be something related to the server’s configuration.
Ok, thank you I’ll give it a try.
You’re welcome, if you need more information about that, let me know.
I have another question. I would like to change one of the menu icons, I’ve looked at the documentation but can’t work out how to change it?
I would also like to add another social media button, instagram. How would I go about doing that?
Thank you!
You can change that in [Appearance > Menus] and the footer icons are editable in [Appearance > Widgets]. More:
Hi Flow, I can’t seem to find any place in the menus section to change icons.
In the Widgets section although I see the location of the current social icons, I don’t understand how to add a new one. Where do I create a new class for instagram?
In [Appearance > Menus] each item has “CSS Classes” field. If they don’t, please click on “Screen options” in the top right corner and you’ll be able to enable that option there. The documentation lists available classes that you can paste there.
You can create any footer layout in [Daisho > General] and in [Appearance > Widgets] you can fill each footer’s column with widgets. Please find “Footer 3” widget area and in the text widget inside you can add <a class="fa fa-instagram" href="http://example.com/"></a> among other links.
Thanks, that did the trick!
Am I missing something? Really need to change fonts but no ability to without working with CSS – is there no fast way?

At this moment there’s no editor available to do that. I’m working on tools that would allow doing that but they are not ready yet.
Even if such tools would exist it’s still not a bad idea to do it in a child theme using CSS. You can also use [Daisho > Styling > Custom CSS Code].
You can find CSS selectors by right-clicking on an element in Chrome and picking “Inspect element” from the context menu and then you can adjust the font like .some-selector { font-family: some-font, sans-serif; }. Also, style.css has table of contents and it’s prepared to allow blocks of code to be quickly copied to child themes where you can modify them.
If you need to load other fonts then you can either follow instructions in /core/fonts.php or use a plugin.
Let me know if you need more information about that. Common CSS selectors are listed in the FAQ.
Hi,
My current WP version is 3.8.5 I am planning to update WP 4.1 also my current theme is Daisho 2.0.1 but according to Envato toolkit Daisho 2.1 (latest) is released. What should I do to update Daisho template without destroying or loosing current WP design.
Thanks.
As for WordPress you can simply update it and nothing should change.
As for the theme you can also simply update it if you have not modified its files. All modifications should be done in a child theme.
General updating instructions: http://support.forcg.com/topic/how-to-update-a-theme
Version 2.0.1 and 2.1 are very similar. The only major difference is that the later adds WooCommerce support. There’s a changelog available.
So hitting ’’update automatically’’.on Envato Toolkit Plugin will update my Daisho theme automatically nothing to do special then??
So hitting ’’update automatically’’.on Envato Toolkit Plugin will update my Daisho theme automatically nothing to do special then??
Yes, you can either update using that plugin or manually. I always update manually because I can instantly restore the previous version if something would go wrong.
Hi there,
The theme looks great but I have one question:
Does this theme work with the WooCommerce 360 degree image plugin?
Just want to make sure as that will be the main emphasis of my site. I know that, depending on how the product image is displayed, it doesn’t always work.
Thanks, would really like to use your theme.

hi Flow comments appear in the footer for every new page that I create: How I can disable them in footer to view page without comment.
tks
Dario
In [Pages > (any page) > Allow comments]. It’s in the “Discussion” box. If you don’t see this box you need to enable it in the top right corner in “Screen Options”.
i fix it tks. one other questions pls: I wnt to add select language at the right of logo like in your psd file, what’s the right way? tks
It will appear if you have WPML installed and configured. This theme is translation-ready but since WordPress doesn’t have any tools that would allow you to have multiple languages at once you need some plugin. This theme is has been tested with the most feature-complete and the most popular plugin called WPML. Other plugins should be fully or in large part compatible as well. More: http://support.forcg.com/topic/translating-themes
i just need a widget area in header, i’ve mqtranslate installed and configured….I would love to continue using it
You can add such widget area anywhere in header.php. You probably want it before or after the NAV element.
The code to insert would be this (it inserts the first sidebar): <?php dynamic_sidebar( 1 ); ?>
More: http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/dynamic_sidebar
Sorry Flow i did not understand where the code must be inserted. You can kindly tell me in which row of header.php i put the code? tks
It depends on how this language switcher is styled. The one I created is absolutely positioned to the right of the logo. You can insert that code in the same place which is right before the line that says <nav class="site-navigation" role="navigation">.
tks flow i did it. now i need to fix the position of the widget: here the page shot for example. now: http://www.decodestudio.info/Senza-titolo-2.gif i would like so: http://www.decodestudio.info/Senza-titolo-1.gif tks a lot dario

This is something that I can’t provide the code for because I don’t have your website address and you’ll need to have separate pieces of code for the desktop version of your website and tablet and mobile versions. That’s easy but time-consuming and I wouldn’t be able to provide the full code in one comment without testing that.
I recommend asking for help on http://studio.envato.com/explore/wordpress-customization
It’s about an hour of work.
What I can tell you is that it shouldn’t be nested in the code tag. Secondly, it’s not possible to easily position that there, normally you’d use display: inline; and it would become positioned next to the menu items but it won’t work in this context. What would be the easiest is something like:
.that-element {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 150px;
}
@media (max-width: 1024px) {
.that-element {
position: relative;
}
/* Styling for tablets and mobile phones requires further testing and trial and error approach to make it look correctly. */
}
If you want to position it next to the menu items then a better way to do that would be to do what WPML did — they filter the menus’ output and add their language switcher there.
I added new page and then i put it to Menu bar. But on the menu the page that i added, doesn’t have a thumbnail. How can i add it ? Help me pls
i meant i dont see icon of menu items
Did you specify any icon using http://docs.devatic.com/daisho/#header?
Hey Flow
does the latest version 2.2 work okay with WP 4.1?
I need to know before I update and also want to make sure VC is most up to date version too?
thanks
You can use either 2.1 from ThemeForest or 2.2 from the development server.
Version 2.2 has been last updated about a week ago.
Both work with WordPress 4.1.
If you’re updating from very old versions to the newest ones please have a look at the updating guide because some settings have been moved to better places, some have been added or removed and may require an update.
Hi Flow, Love the clean+bold design. In particular the smooth filtering of portfolio items is very cool.
I need to build a super simple site where (instead of the portfolio) the blog that can be filtered by category. Is this possible?
Thanks in advance,
There is a portfolio page template that can list selected portfolio categories. If you don’t want to modify the theme files you can create a new project for each blog post and use [Portfolio > (this project) > External link (optional)] to link to that blog post.
Another solution would be to go to project-loop.php (or /modules/shortcodes.php in flow_shortcode_isotope() if you’d like to alter the [ns-isotope] shortcode) and change 'post_type' => array( 'portfolio' ), to 'post_type' => array( 'post' ),. And probably also $thumb_link = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'thumbnail_link', true); to $thumb_link = get_permalink();. I think it would be enough to make it work like you wish. If not, please create a support ticket.
The thumbnail is stored in 300-160-image custom field (it accepts images in any size, the smallest tile is 220×150px). You’ll find other custom field names in project-loop.php.
