Hi Cubell i cannot for the life of me remove the sidebar from woocommerce pages. I have updated the theme and have activated the “no sidebar” in the woocommerce tab but it still shows at the bottom and the page is not full width

http://www.gloopy.co.uk/products/gaming-reviews/psvita/

You are absolutely right, I double-checked it and it wasn’t working properly, I have fixed the code and it will be included in the next update. Also though, you need to edit core.php and look for this:

NULL ) == 'nosidebar' ) {

and change to:

NULL ) == 'nosidebar-fw' ) {

So that on the shop page you get 4 products per line.

Hope this helps!

Cubell

Done and thanks ;)

Perfect :)

Hi Cubell!

So far so good with the theme! My readers are complimenting it. :)

Just a few more questions:

1. It seems that in the mobile version, the logo becomes too small that the branding suffers a bit. How can I increase the size of the one in the mobile version but not affect the desktop version? 2. The space from the blog title and the first paragraph is too much now that I’ve removed the # of views and categories from the by-line. How can I decrease the gap?

Thanks! Cheers!

Hey again,

Ah I see!

1- copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

@media only screen and (max-width: 481px) { #logo img, #mob-logo img {  max-height: 100px ; }
}

And if that is still too small, increase the 100px value.

2- The only way to decrease that is by copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

@media only screen and (min-width: 768px) {
.cb-separated, .cb-module-block .cb-separated {   padding-bottom: 30px;  margin-bottom: 30px; }
.cb-module-block .cb-article-row { margin-bottom: 30px; }
}
And decrease the values there. Hope this helps.

Cubell

Hi,

1 was spot on. Thanks!

2 didn’t do it for me, sorry. specifications: on-desktop

I replaced the values of padding-bottom, margin-bottom to 5px and nothing happened.

Hey again,

I had a look at your custom CSS output and that isn’t coming out, are you sure you copy/pasted it in the right place? :)

Cubell

I just purchased this theme and when I try to insall it it’s saying “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.”

Are you able to upload a version with the style sheet please.

Hi Twit,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine, I hope you enjoy using it.

The theme does come with the stylesheet! The reason you are getting that error is because you are installing the wrong file. When you download a theme from Themeforest, you will get a zip with multiple things (documentation files, theme file, demo data, license, etc) you need to extract the .zip and inside you will find a “15zine.zip” file, that is the real theme file you need to install on your site.

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Hi,..how are you?

I need to know how could I setup the featured image as “No crop”, but as default.

When I publish a new article, I see that I can choose “Cropped” or “No Crop” image…..but “Cropped” is setup as the default shape. I need to setup “No Crop” as the default one.

I need this because when I add a new event in the calendar (using a plugin with a similar panel like the articles into the blog), I have not the option to choose “Crop” or “No Crop” like in the “standard” articles.

So in the event details the image is showed “Cropped”:

http://www.bcn-reggae.com/event/anthony-b-en-barcelona/?instance_id=16

This is why I have asked how to make the images always setup as “No cropped” (default).

Another solution is to eliminate the area established for the feature image, to solve or avoid the problem (but only for the Calendar contents). This is the area in the event details:

http://www.bcn-reggae.com/event/sesion-club-criolla-en-barcelona/?instance_id=12 http://www.bcn-reggae.com/calendar-3/action~month/exact_date~1430468461/request_format~html/

Thanks in advance for your support.

Hi Nimi86,

I’m great thanks, I hope you are too :)

Ah I see what you mean! I was about to say that you can use the “Global featured image style override” in the theme options to set a global default, but I just realised that the no-crop version isn’t an option there! That is a mistake as it should definitely be there. I will add it there in the next update!

Until then, you can hide the feature images in events by copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

.single-ai1ec_event .cb-fis { display: none; }

Hope this helps!

Cubell

How can I add the 300×250 AD on the widget section? i already try to post this code \\ in the text widget and it doesnt show.

Thanks

Hey MasRevista,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine, I hope you’re enjoying it :)

Do you have AdBlocker installed on your browser by any chance? If so, that may be hiding the ad from you :)

Cubell

Oh! Thank you, it was the AdBlocker

Aha I knew it :) No problem!

Hi Cubell!

Awesome theme! We just installed it and I have a question about the megamenu. In your demo site, the videogames megamenu dropdown shows a list of text choices on the left and when you hover each one it shows three posts with featured images to the right. How do you structure the mega menu to do this? Thanks so much, we are loving it!

Haha, I look forward to seeing that :)

oh the 404 page code doesn’t work. It is my fault, I wanted a photo showing as a full width with and not background. I’ve tried making the term that i need up but I haven’t had any luck.

Ah, so you want to literally insert an image in there? If so, simply copy/paste this code:

<img src="http://your-silly-penguin.jpg" />

into the theme’s 404.php file somewhere (the get_search_form() line is the line that outputs the search box, so put it before or after that depending where you want to it).

Hope this helps!

Cubell,
If I was to install Sensei in this theme (http://www.woothemes.com/products/sensei/) will it work? Does it need special styling from you?

Hey again,

I haven’t ever really used Sensei, so I can’t say for certain. The theme only customizes the styling of WooCommerce, and it’s done the correct way, so I wouldn’t imagine the theme’s styling would affect something like Sensei, but again I have never used it so I’m not 100%.

Cubell

Noted.

If you do use it, please let me know how it goes as it would be really helpful in case someone else asks about it in the future.

Thanks bud!

Cubell

Cubell,
Is there any simple way to put WooCommerce Product Categories in the Main Navigation Menu? I can’t seem to do that from the Appearance > Menu submenu. Please advise.

Aha! Amazing, it’s usually something silly like that, but I blame WordPress UI on this one, that screen options button has lots of settings throughout the entire backend, but it’s not easy/obvious to find!

Happy I could help!

Cubell

Update: I tried adding the categories but at some point it simply stops saving the Menu and you can’t add more menu items, so weird (I have many). I’m suspecting that WordPress has some limitations for how many menu items can be added thru the WooCommerce feature. I guess I’m back to the link type menu :/

I doubt is the theme, so no worries on this. Thanks anyway!

Hey again,

Ah yes, that isn’t the theme, WordPress definitely has a limit on the number of menu items you can add, Google “WordPress menu limit” and you’ll find lots of articles about how to increase the limit (You probably need to edit your site’s PHP.ini).

Cubell

Hey there!

I’ve just published my client’s website (http://applemagazine.com/) with this theme, but I’m facing an small problem trying to add pagination on the home page.

I used an estatic page for that, I even tryed to put it on the code but none of that worked. When i try to access the link (website)/page/2 it redirects to my homepage…

Any clue? Thanks in advance

Hi again,

No problem, I’m happy to help!

What do you mean by my test environment, do you mean the theme demo site? Because it works fine there, this is what page 2 looks like http://15zine.cubellthemes.com/page/2/

On your homepage, you haven’t added the block with pagination yet though, once you add it should work.

Although I noticed something quite strange on your site – Every url ends with a random number ”/23418” for example. That definitely isn’t normal and may be why yours isn’t working! Go to your Settings -> Permalinks and see why that is happening, and change it back to normal:

For example:

http://applemagazine.com/schools-looking-for-ipad-project-refunds/23418

Should just be:

http://applemagazine.com/schools-looking-for-ipad-project-refunds

Cubell

Sorry, about the confusing information

My testing environment is here: http://testes.yogh.com.br/apple-magazine/

I used the Blog Style B and corrected the permalinks but still not working.

Maybe is there something else that is set wrong?

Thanks =)

Ah no problem! That does look strange, but WordPress controls the pagination 100%, the theme calls it using paginate_links() which tries to get the base URL, so I wonder if having it setup that way (test environment) is the cause. If you set it up on the real final site, it should work well I think. Have you tried it there?

Cubell

Congrats, the theme is great and I love it!

Just a quick question: For some reason I cannot find the option to turn off the header IN the post with the result that it always covers half of the featured image when you click on the past (just looks ugly). Where do I find it?

Sorry, if this has been asked before, couldn‘t find anything relating to my issue.

Thanks!

Hi Ladybird23,

Thanks for the love for the theme :)

When you edit a post, you will see a option inside the Featured Image Options tab called “Show site header”, simply set that to off to make it work that way. You do need to be using a big featured image style though.

I hope this helps.

Cubell

Hi, great theme, again.

One question, is it possible override featured image global options in pages, in the same way that can be done in posts?

Thanks!

Hey Espilber,

And thanks again for choosing 15Zine :)

That isn’t possible, but how many pages do you have? Can’t you manually set them up? Because typically, WordPress sites shouldn’t have too many pages!

Cubell

Hi Cubell,

I need some infos before purchase this theme.

Is it possible to have the homepage header looking like this post : http://15zine.cubellthemes.com/design/parallax-story-post/ A full screen image, with the little menu.

And please, is your theme ready for Buddypress ?

Nice work !

Ah found it, hope my response helps!

Cubell

Answerded :)

And answered back ;)

Hi, I bought this theme and I would like to know how can update it, since i’ve seen there’s a new version (1.2).

Regards

Hi Artwort,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine, I hope you’re enjoying it.

To update the theme, follow the update instructions in the documentaiton: http://docs.cubellthemes.com/15zine/#!/updating_theme

Although v1.3 will be submitted today, so perhaps it’d be best if you wait for that to go live, as it is an important update to comply with the recent XSS vulnerability discovered in WordPress.

Cubell

Hi there,

Really love this theme. We are seeking to build our second magazine and would like to use 15Zine as it look very fresh and versatile.

Can we have a full width posts on the home slider like fast Company?

http://www.fastcompany.com/

Can we also insert banner ads within a post and will it work with gravity forms, mail chimp and a membership plugin?

Many thanks

ken

Sounds like a cool project, if you do end up using 15Zine, make sure to share the URL to take a look :)

This is the sort of thing we do:

http://www.migrantwoman.com/

Can my post show views (see above link under title),

Ah I see, looks good! Excited to see what you do with 15Zine if you do end up using it :)

Hi, thank you for an awesome theme!

BUT, I’m in desperate need of custom post queries as I need my posts to sort by a custom date field AND only show posts with that custom date field data being in the future.

I must accomplish this, can you help me in anyway?

Regards

Hi Almiwa,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine and for the kind words :)

Ooph, that actually sounds quite specific and complicated! You essentially have to write your own query using WP_Query() to do something like that, and i’m afraid it is quite a complex customization so you would need to hire a developer to help you out with it, and I’d recommend looking for one on http://studio.envato.com which is run by the same people who run Themeforest.

Cubell

Hello.

Is it possible to use a language selector? My customer needs to have an english version, so is it possible to select different language, example at the menu?

Hi Jakobhg,

Thanks for the interest in 15Zine.

The only way to have a site in multiple languages is to use a translation plugin, such as WPML. No theme will be able to allow for multiple language, as that type of functionality is 100% for plugins and takes years of development to get it working well (like WPML). The theme is 100% compatible with WPML though, so if you use that, you can put the site in as many languages as you want.

Cubell

Great theme! Just AWESOME!

A few pre-sales questions:

1. The “share on” social media section near the bottom of the page… is there an option to turn this off? And can it be replaced with a different social share plugin?

2. Is it possible to change the icon size of the Social Icons widget in the sidebar?

3. Is there a “back to top” option for this theme? Or is this not needed because the menu stays at the top? I would like to know the thought behind the decision not to include this.

4. Is there an option for making the sidebar not stick when it reaches the end before the main content does?

5. Is it possible to change the color of the review bar from yellow to another color?

6. Does this theme support WP 4.2?

7. Is it possible to change the name of the theme in the code so that competitors will not know what theme is being used? For example, instead of wp-content/theme/15zine… change to wp-content/theme/new_name.

Thanks!

One additional question: Are there any font options and Font Awesome features?

By the way, I researched the answer to #7 above. No need to respond to that. Thanks.

Hey Azizpbrimah,

Thanks for the kind words, interest and for then choosing 15Zine :)

I’m not sure if you need help with these still as you probably found the relevant options in the theme but just in case:

1- Yes, you can turn 15Zine’s sharing block off in the theme options.

2- I’m afraid not, but there are lots of free/premium plugins that have other sizes, such as this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/social-media-widget/

3- Yes, there is, if enabled it is located at the end of the page, inside the footer. I think the fixed arrows-to-top buttons are ugly and outdated now :)

4- Yeah, you can turn the stickyness off in the theme options.

5- The reviews should actually be showing the color of category, there is a minor bug that is making them all be yellow. On the demo site, only reviews in the “Videogames” section should be yellow, as that is the color of the Videogame categroy. Once this is fixed, you can change the color of each category to control the review colors too.

6- Yes :)

8- Yes, FontAwesome comes integrated so you can use any of the icons from it.

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Purchased your theme a couple of days ago, love it! But one problem, I cant see the featured posts images in the main menu when I hover over a page button? It just shows the text of the page when i hover over the button. Look forward to your reply.

Hey Luxuryautomotive,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine, I love that you love it!

Do you mean to say you want megamenus with posts, but can’t see them? If so, then you probably haven’t set them up, check out this section to learn about the megamenu system in 15Zine: http://docs.cubellthemes.com/15zine/#!/cubell_megamenu_system

Hope this helps :)

Cubell

Hi Cubell,

Just wanted to ask, is this compatible with wordpress 4.2? I’m kinda hesitant to upgrade to 4.2 because it might cause problems with my site. Thanks!

Hey Furankisan,

Yes, the theme is compatible with 4.2, so you can update with no problems :)

Cubell

Thanks Cubell! :)

You’re welcome :)

Hi! I found a bug. If you set the BACKGROUND TAKEOVER AD IMAGE and set a TOP MARGIN OF CONTENT that is rather high (I tried 380px), the last sticky sidebar (SECTION WITH LATEST GLOBAL POSTS + PAGINATION) is not working correctly. Footer will overlap it. Try it!

Hi Sivustaja,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine :)

I tested that, and you are right! I managed to fix it and it will be included in the next theme update which will be submitted in a few hours.

Thanks for the report.

Cubell

Thanks for a fast reply. Unfortunately the bug is not fixed with the latest release.

Hey again,

No problemo! It is fixed but I just realized that I forgot to update the minified Javascript file. Go to Theme Options -> Extras and turn off the minify JS option. Now you will load the file that is fixed.

In the next update I will update the minified Javascript file too.
