Does your theme support multilingual functionality?

Languages such as Greek, French etc…

Thank you.

Also, does it support AUTOPLAY music or video when entering in the home page? Thank you a lot.

Hi,

Yes, the plugin support multilingual plugin such as WPML

You can set the video in the wolf slider to autoplay or the playlist to autoplay, yes

Cheers

Thank you.

Can the music player be full width? I’m looking for something similar in style to: sound.is/pressure

Ideally, I’d like a big image header with the playlist to align accordingly beneath the image.

Cheers,

qubed

Hi,

You will need a little bit of knowledge in CSS to do that, but it is doable.

Cheers

Hi,

How do I change the default post layout type to “Sidebar”? All of my single posts are showing up with the “Full Width” format and we want sidebars.

Thanks.

Hi, Sorry but that’s still not working for me. I made the changes exactly as described to the two files and I added an “includes” folder to the child theme. I put the two revised files in the “includes” folder so that the structure stays the same. I still do not see a sidebar on any of my single posts. We have 810 single posts so there is no way for us to manually change each one. Please advise. Thanks.

OK, even more simple, replace your child theme functions.php file with this one (link below) and remove the child theme “includes” folder (forget about the above)

Here it should work

Let me know

That worked. Thank you! :)

Hi,

I tried changing Home Header settings to Video Background or other options (it is by default in RevSlider) but unfortunately, every time I save the new settings, it is not allowing us to change it other settings. It is reverting back to the default settings.

I have notice that as well on the other Decibel option settings.

Another question is, how can we use a youtube video on the header slider. Currently, we don’t want to host videos on our server, we would like to upload videos from youtube and use youtube link or embed in the template.

Looking forward hearing from you soon.

Hi BrutalDesign,

I have seen that you’ve replied to other latest inquiries but no reply with our question.

Still, the solution or code provided is not allowing us to save our changes in the theme options.

Hi,

This issue has been discussed several times. The new release should fix the issue.

Pls let us know on the forum if the issue still exists for you (on localhost I guess?) after update http://help.wpwolf.com

Cheers

Hi BrutalDesign,

I think it is fixed now.

I’ll let you know if anything else. Thanks.

Cheers!

I just purchased your theme and I am not able to activate the Visual Composer or Revolution Slider, please help. Each time I try to install them, I get the following error message: PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Invalid archive structure

Please Help,

Thanks

Hi,

Maybe something wen’t wrong during the download.. I suggest to re-download the theme package on themeforest http://docs.wpwolf.com/documentation/themes/decibel/#install

If the automatic installation doesn’t work for you for some reason, you can install the plugin the regular way using the admin plugin panel. You will find the plugin zip files in the includes/admin/plugins folder

I hope it will help

That did it, thanks for your support!

Hello, for some reason the maintenance page is no longer working for me, I am looking for a quick fix since I don’t want the site live right now. Thanks guys!

SOME PAGES WERE DRAFTED

Which ones in particular handle maintenance page? thanks

Hi,

There is no issue with maintenance page feature. Pls note that the visitor is redirected to the maintenance/coming soon page only if he’s not logged in.

An admin won’t be redirected to the maintenance/coming soon page.

You can set any page as maintenance page in the theme options -> general tab -> Maintenance page

I hope it will help

Yes I understand that part however I checked on another system where I was not logged in and it was not working for me, the site was live and the maintenance page was set to coming soon, I then published some of the pages that were drafted and it was working again.

Hi,

There is no know issue about this and I couldn’t reproduce this bug.

Could you post a ticket on the forum with your login infos in private comment?

Me or Laur will reply ASAP

Cheers

Hi, Theme looks great but is there an easy way for us to add an “Artists” section similar to the “Releases” section? Thanks.

Hi,

No, but maybe you can use the discography categories to display 2 different grid.

I hope it will help

Thanks. Where do we specify discography categories? I don’t see that option.

In the menu admin panel, you can set releases categories (artist or label) as menu item.

Check the “screen option” button at the top left and select the options

Cheers

I actually have one more question prior to purchasing your new theme, is it possible to add a Message Bar at the top of the Header similar to your “Live” Theme?

Thank You!

Sure!

You can download the plugin here http://wpwolf.com/plugin/wolf-message-bar

Cheers

Hi WP Wolf,

Great name for a music theme. I checked out your rather lovely documentation for Decibel and am just about sold on it but have a few questions:

1. Is the homepage header video slider HTML5 only or can you also have looped YouTube, Vimeo and/or others?

2. Are images inserted into posts/pages via standard Insert Media (Image collections and/or Gallery inserts) styled with as much beauty as the special photo post type? I have a whole heap of existing posts with images attached as groups and galleries and really really trying to avoid having to re-edit the posts to make them look nice!

3. Can you tell me how the Sharing icons and Gravatar are managed? Is it configurable so I can add others or even compatible with Jetpack > Sharing and/or Jetpack > Publicize?

Sorry for so many pre-flight questions, but I keep buying themes only to find that they work really well if you are building a site from scratch, but not so good at playing / displaying nicely with existing content.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Cheers, Dan

Ooops, sorry but just noticed question directly above about HTML5 video slider so you’ll probably cover that question there.

Hi,

1. Self hosted video only (html5)

2. The gallery feature is very flexible, you can display a gallery anywhere, eg http://decibel.wpwolf.com/master/image-galleries/

3. Gravatar is managed with the default wordpress behavior.

The sharing icons are part of the theme and haven’t be developped with jetpack. Not all available social network are shown in the demo. You got 8 sharing icons available with the theme: twitter, facebook, pinterest, google+, tumblr, stumbleupon, linkedin and email

I hope it will help

What is the format for the video slider and video background? Is it HTML5 or a platform such as YouTube or Vimeo?

Hi,

Self hosted video only (html5)

Cheers

Moved “up” from Music Pro to Decibel. It took a little while to get the hang of Decibel..And there are a few small option details I would like to have changed, or have added. But all in all a great theme and I really like and can definately recommend Decibel theme.

WP Wolf (Author) also have a great pretty quick respons helpdesk if you need it. So if you need a good theme for your band..Sure. This is a good choice.

Thanks a ton for the kind words. It means a lot! All the best.

I am interested in purchasing your theme; however I need to know if it will support the Membership Plugin, from Member Mouse – http://membermouse.com/ unless you have another equally performing Plugin you would recommend.

Appreciate your quick response, Thanks

Hi,

I didn’t tested the theme with this plugin, but it shouldn’t be a problem

Cheers

Hi, Can I use the player to stream something like “Shoutcat” for a radio station? Thanks.

Hi,

You can set any type URL in the player. I never tested it, but I’m aware of users who use it as shoutcast by using a streaming URL

Cheers

Can you try it with this URL to check if it’s running well?

http://s7.voscast.com:7888/;stream/1

Thanks.

I am having trouble getting my slider to scroll into the next section of content the way the demo does. Anyone know what I would need to do to fix that? If i can fix that I think i’m home free!

Awesome theme btw. LOVE it!

RyanLafferty.com is the site I’m working on, btw.

Hi,

I’m glad you liekt the theme! Looks like you have a coming soon page right now, could you post a ticket on the forum with your login infos in private comments? http://help.wpwolf.com

Talk to you soon

Done! Thank you

not to be a nag but when will the new version with the tabs be updated?

Hi,

I can’t tell you an exact time frame right now.

Pls be patient

is it possible just for me to get those tabs to show up again? even if its just a temporary fix i just need to be able to see those to finish a website.

Hello! When i update the Demo Content and setup the theme, in the reading options i don´t have “Home” template… why? :( And after upload the Demo the website don´t look like the Demo example… hehe, maybe i need some help with this… http://www.fabesdemayo.com/

Wow, indeed! It seems that the demo content as been imported weirdly..

First thing you can do is re-arrange your menu in the menu admin panel, and import the revslider data (import the slider1.zip file via the revslider panel)

You will find all the infos about how to set up the theme in the documentation http://docs.wpwolf.com/documentation/themes/decibel/

I hope it will help

Ok, here i go! ;) thanks

magnifique !!!!!!!

Hello again,

I was having trouble getting the ‘wolf tweet’ short code to work, and then realized that even though this feature is included in the ‘live demo’, it apparently requires a ‘wolf tweet’ plugin, that did not come with the theme download.

Was this plugin meant to be included? Even the demo data for the theme makes calls to this shortcode, and it of course doesn’t work.

Thanks again for your help!

Hi,

Indeed, only the main plugins can be installed on theme activation. You can find the wolf twitter plugin here http://wpwolf.com/plugin/wolf-twitter/

I hope it will help

Pre-Purchase Question:

Is there an option to show “Past Events” page/section? Or even better, a way to filter past events per year?

And, what about the load to Server? We’re using a Shared Host, won’t be problems there?

Hi,

Yes, you can display past and future shows on different pages, or future and past show on the same page.

You can’t filter the show by year by default, but you can use the “artist” category to sort the show by year.

e.g
[wolf_tour_dates artist="2015"]

I hope it will help

Cool, thanks for replay.

I guess we can use tour instead of artist as category.

Thanks again!

Im having a lot of trouble getting this site set up. Do you have a site where I can submit a ticket for some assistance?

Sure, you can subscribe to the support forum: http://help.wpwolf.com
