Hi Duke,

I have purchased many themes for client installs and purchased this one for my own site. It is, by far, the best theme I have ever worked with. Thank you for putting so much effort in to this website.

I have two questions I was unable to find by searching comments:

1. In the portfolio, it currently waits for all of the images to pre-load before displaying any of them. I prefer to have all of my images load, so the filtering works for the whole portfolio. That said, is it possible to have them load from the top-down, and appear as they load, instead of waiting for all of them to load before displaying?

2. I currently have overlays with lightbox for the portfolio (no portfolio detail pages), which is my preference. The issue is that it is very hard to scroll in the mobile version. Is it possible, just in the mobile version, to turn off the overlays and the lightbox, so the mobile portfolio is basically a long scrolling list of images? Basically, I want to disable those features just on mobile.

My site for reference: canofcreative.com

Thanks again for the great theme!

Andy

Ok,

1. With Royal Portfolio you can’t do that. But I will try to care about that and make some tricks in the next update so may be you’ll be able to do that. Just ask me to explain how to do that in the next theme update.

2. Remove old one and insert this, then clear browser cache. But please let me know if it doesn’t solve the issue.

<script>jQuery(document).ready(function($) { if ( $('#sidebar').css('display') == 'none' ) { $('.media-hover-link').attr('rel', ''); } $('.media-hover-link').click(function(event){ event.preventDefault(); }) });</script> <code><br /><br /> Best, Duke ;)</code>

1. That makes sense. It was worth a shot. Please let me know if this is possible in the future.

2. The overlays are still there, but since the images do not link anymore, and since I have autoload on instead of it loading the whole site, it scrolls much faster now, so this will work perfectly.

Thanks again! As soon as I can figure out how to rate the theme, I will give it 5 stars for sure.

Cheers, Thanks ;)

Hi duke!

is there a way to automatically add new custom categories which belong to the same ‘parent’ to display in the portfolio?

Hi

Unfortunately no you can’t do that, you interested to create multiple portfolio as i guess? like here http://wp-royal.com/cufo/jupiter/

Cheers

ya..ok,never mind, thanks anyway!

Hey Duke, Like the theme, but I can’t figure out how to get my slideshows to not crop shots done in portrait orientation. Any tips? Here’s a link: http://www.heymrlukas.com/portfolio/items/people-2/ Thanks in advance- J

Hi

I just checked and all is good there , you need to upload normal landscape images and all be good. its slider revolution as i guess yes?or u using some other sliders?

Cheers

Hi, I am having a problem with my website. I am not sure If it is caused because of the theme. The main portfolio page dont show all the single portfolio posts. They all supposed to be shown as little images. It used to work nicely but without doing anything they have disappeared. This problem repeats in all the portfolio pages. Can you help me, please. Thanks very much.

Hi, you should not create those categories which you are not going to use. Go to your dashboar > portfolio categories and delete all Empty categories. Than your problem should be fixed. If not – please write you r website user/password on my contact email. Cheers ;)

I think that is not the problem, I have sent you an email. Thanks!

I have some problems with customizing a portfolio category as single page. It generally works (shows category posts) but doesn’t want to show text from the main input field. What I want to do is write the description of the each category above the listed grid posts.

Currently that option is not available there. But I’m going to create Royal Portfolio shortcode which will allow you to insert portfolio posts from the page builder. Cheers ; )

please asap :) & thanks for quick support answers

I will do my best to do it asap. I want to introduce that future in the next update ;)

Hi,

Have just updated the theme (deleted the folder and reuploaded the new one), but i got some errors and the sidebar does not show up. Is there a specific update procedure ?

Thanks.

That should not break productions sites that does not show errors up, but its annoying on development environments because it simply does not work ^^

Hi mate. If you gave me your website logs Iv already fixed it. It is not a pho code error it happens coz you havn’t updated theme correctly. That notice comes from the theme customizer when some values are not saved. Jut go there and find Fold Menu align option in the Menu and filters section then chang it to something then get back your to your setup of menu and save it.

If you gave me your website log I did it faster and without problems. Again, there are NO php code errors in the theme code.

Cheers ;)

“it happens coz you havn’t updated theme correctly”

That’s why I was asking for the update procedure …

So now is it fixed?

Hi there—I just downloaded this theme, and am loving it!! I am using “Earth”.

On my Portfolio Page, I want to define the order of the portfolio categories in the filter at the top—is there an easy way to do this? So far, all I can tell is that if I want that I may need to hardcode it in…

Thanks!! -Gabby

Hi,

Currently there is no way to sort Filters out there, but may be you can hardcode them but you will need some coding knownladge each time you will create new filters/category. So I don’t think it’s a good idea for you.

Cheers ;)

Thanks for the quick response!! I just took an HTML/CSS course (and my boyfriend is a web developer) so I am thinking of giving it a shot… any tips if I do go for it? ...It looks like I go to Appearance > Edit Theme > Portfolio Page template, and within there is the Portfolio Filters section and ”// categories which will be displayed”—is that where I would make edits? Or earlier in the code?

Thank you!!

OK, If I say it will be little bit hard for you I don’t lie. It’s not that simple to modify PHP code of any wordpress theme if you are newbie. So writ me on email, give me your wordpress website user/password and I will modify that code for you. I will give you an example and then you will continue adding new filters yourself with copy/pasting and changing that code snippet do create/add new hardcoded filters.

Cheers, Duke ;)

Hello I love the theme! I am using the “neptune” option. I am having a few problems with customization.

1)When selecting a post as a “gallery” vs standard post, I upload the images, however if the images are different sizes it zooms in the smaller images and crops them making them appear to be low quality. Do all slides have to be the same dimensions? I was able to write custom code to shrink the gallery so more of the image is viewable on the screen but I can’t seem to fix the smaller image zoom/crop problem. I want the content below the slideshow to move down if the image is larger, currently it is overlaying the content, I added padding to the bottom however is there a better way that the content will just adapt to the size of the image currently shown in the gallery slideshow? (code I addded: .gallery-slideshow{ max-width:700px; margin-left:auto; margin-right:auto; padding-bottom:300px; } If this is not possible, is this functionality possible with the revolution slider?

2)To update plugins is there an api key, and license key I should have obtained? or do I have to delete each plugin, and once they are deleted a recommended plugin prompt will appear. If this is the process is there an ideal way to back up the content created using those plugins?

3) When no filter is selected on the portfolio page are the portfolio posts tiled randomly? If so is there a way to sort by date added?

4) On the home page there is an out of focus image that is animated to move across the screen, initially I thought this image was pulling the files from the portfolio page dynamically and being presented, however I think this was achieved by created a single image of the portfolio page (screen shot or manually created) and then added as a background image with animation. Is this correct or am I missing a feature to pull the content dynamically?

Thank you for your help I really appreciate it. I am under no time crunch currently so whenever you are able to respond would be a great help.

-Jim Joyce

Hi

I am AFK right now , i will get back home soon and i will contact you asap :) and please contact me on this email so i will send screenshots to help you, contact.wproyalflush@gmail.com

thanks

Well Jim,

I’m here now and lets begin discusion..

1. I don’t fully understand what you mean so far. So will be great if you show me an example (screenshot or link or smth else) of what you really whant to achieve. But before that you can try this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GekSBUR-_NY to resize images (no idea buy may be it helps). Anyways, please provide more visually enhanced details about this point.

2. No need for API keys and activations. Just skip every single activation notice. They are all free for you coz they are all bundled with Cufo Theme. No extra license required.

3. All the posts are sorted by date by default. Thats how wordpress works :)

4. That image is an animated screenshot of multiple portfolio posts combination. It’s created manually – not dinamicaly. That option is made via “Ultimate Addons for VC” plugin. Just create your own screenshot and insert there instead of old one.

Cheers and Good Luck, Duke :)

Loving the theme and have it set up nicely. :)

One thing though: I can’t get the contact page to send an email. It says it’s sent, but I receive nothing in email.

I’ve got my email address in both the General and Contact Page settings.

Hi

Its Looks like your server php mail send issue but anyway please send me your username and pass i will check it , contact.wproyalflush@gmail.com

Cheers

Good looking theme, but having problems with site speed. Seems like largest images are always being loaded for blog/portfolio pages and unused Google fonts are also being loaded. Also, because pages blog/portfolio pages are slow it would be helpful to have a loading animation gif or icon on the page to help the overall UI. Any help you can give would be appreciated. Thank you! :)

HI,

Please contact me via email and i will help you with site loading speed and loading animation as well, contact.wproyalflush@gmail.com

Thanks

I am currently unable to customize my cufo theme, I am getting the error message “cheatin uh?”

Ok try to setup default wordpress theme and go to customizer. If you get the same message it means that something is wrong with your server configuration. But if not – write me on email your website user/password and I will check it for you.

I’m using the nifty flip boxes and trying to add a link. I was successful previously but now the link does not work. I select the page to which I want to link but when I test it, it stays on the same page. Also, it says “undefined” in the setting box, rather than listing the page to which it is linking. What changed?

Also, I keep getting this message “Please activate your copy of the Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer to receive automatic updates & get premium support” but when I click and enter my API code, it tells me it is an invalid code.

Ok, in the latest version of Cufo theme that notice is removed, but if it is an only problem for you please skip that notice and continue working because that plugin is slready active and you can use it in your content. All plugings which come with Cufo theme are FREE for clients. I hope now you understand, cos this is written everywhere that plugins are FREE.

I got it! I reinstalled the theme and everything works now. I appreciate the help. I am fairly new to wordpress :)

Hi duke!

help is needed!..funny thing about the portfolio..it shows me the filters on top that are related to the portfolio items currently viewing in the page and only after i load more items it shows the rest of the filters..how do i view all of the filters from the start?

thanks

that’s logical..is there a way around it by any chance?

Hi,

you can use normal categories instead of “isotope” filtering. In that case you can accomplish what you want but you will loose javascript filtering. Go to theme Customizer -> Menu & Filters -> Filter Items and disable “Use Isotope Filters” checkbox. Checkout :)

Cheers!

ya I saw that option..didn’t go so well..don’t know much about java.

never mind,thanks anyway!

For some reason after I updated my theme and wordpress, my site’s menu when you click on any menu item, the next menu includes all the submenu’s instead of having a popdown submenu

Please send me wordpress username & password and FTP User & password and i will try to do my best. :)

Hello Royal-Flush,

Is there a way to disable the “read more” button only on the portfolio page ?

Thank you !

Working perfectly ! Thank you so much ! :D

Working perfectly ! :) Thank you so much :D

Hello, I uploaded the theme via FTP and activated it. Then I downloaded and activated the Ajax Thumbnail Rebuild, Revolution Slider, Royal Portfolio, Royal Recent Portfolio Posts and Ultimate Addons for Visual Composer plugings, but after that all WordPress pages are white. I’ve tried to delete and install again, but the problem is not solved. Can you help me, please? Thanks.

Hi, please send me your website credentials on email. I will need your website user/password and FTP credentials. Cheers :)

Hi, sorry, what is your e-mail to send the data? thanks

Hey there, I have another question :) I would like to remove the filter menu on my “blog” page. You can see it here can’t seem to figure it out by myself :(

thanks again for the great theme !

Estelle

Hi Estelle,

Go to Theme Customizer -> Custom CSS (section) and add this code snippet there:

.blog-filters {display:none !important;}

Cheers, Duke ;)

oh ok… I thought it was somewhere in the settings ! :) Thanks you so much !

Yeah, you are welcome ;)

Hi There, is there a way to change what happens when you click on one of the images on the starting page? I’m using Neptune. And I would love for the subpage to open instead of the image viewer. So basically what happens if you click on the inscription underneath… do you understand what I am trying to explain? thanks for your help!

Hi,

Sure I understand what you mean. Just go to Theme Customizer -> Portfolio Page (section) -> Media (tabs) and change “Force Media Hover” to “Link to Single Page”. That’s it, simple :)

Cheers!

hi duke! thanks for adding the video title to the lightbox popup! is there any way i can adjust the layout of the text / text sizing?

Also is there any way i can get the other information to pop up with the video? (categories and sharing?)

Hi ,

I can give you custom css for size/color adjusting if you want? currently only title can be shown but i think its good idea and i will check if i can do it for next updates, by the way just interesting if you get theme update email?

Cheers

yes that would be fantastic if i could change the look of it. but it up the top of the page etc. also, is there a way to turn off the number? (1/6, etc)

Yes it should be possible, i will send you custom css in few minutes but it better to do it by email, please send me email contact.wproyalflush@gmail.com here and i will send it to you, and what about my question?

Cheers

hi,

after the installation, the Add Media button doesn’t do anything when I click it. Same problem in portfolio and post page. I’ve noticed the ‘featured image’ button isn’t working either.

I have disabled all my plugins but nothing happens. If I active my old themes everything working correctly.

any idea to solve this issue?

thanks a lot

Marco

Hi,
