Hey Sp0rk,

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

I don’t think it would be possible to add something like that to the by line, but if you want to do that, why not add a photographer credit at the end of the article? You could use the WordPress toolbar tools to style it, such as italic/size/color/etc, and then just copy that formula (copy/paste) wherever you want to use it.

Hey Jimmynagi,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine.

That looks quite strange, but I answered your ticket in the support system about this, take a look over there.

Cubell

Great, that works but the posts that were originally in the slider are not shown at all now. Is there any workaround for that?

I have another question right away: Is it possible to change the amount of posts in this specific slider? For example change it to just 3 or 6 instead of 9?

Hey again,

Ohh sorry, I didn’t realise what you meant, I thought you wanted to hide the slider on mobile, not disable it. I’m afraid though that you can’t disable it on mobile, as a responsive WordPress site outputs the exact same HTML out, regardless of what device you are on, so the slider will always output the slider code and work that way.

And at the moment, it is only possible to set the number of posts in a slider in the 15Zine homepage builder module options, not on the latest style homepage (which is what you are using), but I definitely plan to add an option to control the number of posts in the slider, and you will be able to set it to 3 posts. And if you do that, the slider will turn into a static grid of 3 posts.

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Hey again

I am indeed and BuddyPress integration is nearly complete, so shouldn’t be long before I release v1.3

And I haven’t ever really used Gravity Forms, I prefer simpler plugins, but I will look into it and see if it is something I can do.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Cubell

Sounds great. If I hand you the plugin for development purposes, would that help?

I’m not sure you are allowed to do that, but don’t worry about it! in the future if I decide to definitely do it, I can contact the Gravity form author and I’m sure he’ll send me a copy for development purposes

Hi SIr that like totaly destroid my desktop version now the first post is showing up on the grid and not under the grid where it supposed to be. So what i meen is my latest posts do not show were they belong but first show in the grid

I removed the code but it wont turn back, i also did a global reset but it wont change back eather this is not cool please contact me direct at info@fakka.nl so i can provide a user admin for you to check it out please

Oke fiuuuw i fixed it never mind but still this code didnt work

Hey again,

That doesn’t sound good at all! But that code is very simple CSS code, unless you entered it in the wrong box or similar, it wouldn’t really do anything. Try adding an !important to make it an important CSS statement:

@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
.cb-grid-block { display: none !important; }
}

And make sure you add it to Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS. If it still doesn’t work, is there any other CSS code you have entered in there already? Share all the final code to see if maybe you have broken code elsewhere doing it

Cubell

I turned off the posts offset feature and that got them to display. Maybe a bug with that feature?

Hi Inkridge,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine.

The offset option is to skip the posts that appear in the grid, in the post lists below. So the grid would show posts #1 -> #4, and below you would see from posts #5 onwards. However, if your grid is customized (i.e. doesn’t show default latest posts), then you need to disable the offset option as the posts below will still show from #5 onwards, but the grid will be showing your customized list of posts, and this is the way the Offset feature works in WordPress queries, it isn’t to remove duplicates, it is an option to “skip x number of posts”.

I hope this makes sense.

Cubell

Hey TedAvery,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine

I’m afraid that isn’t possible, as the sliders need posts to be able to work. Sliders show featured images + by line information that categories don’t have, so it wouldn’t be able to work the same way.

Cubell

Hey again,

Ah I see. In that case, open a ticket at http://support.cubellthemes.com and I’ll share some code that may possibly help, if not, I will need to look into it in more detail to include in a future update.

Cubell

Hey Tomojlogin,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine and for the love for it

Have you told the theme about your custom post types? Check the documentation here: http://docs.cubellthemes.com/15zine/#!/customposttype and see if that helps!

Have a great day too

Cubell

Hey again,

No problem! The demo is set to 1200px. but if you resize your browser to be under 1200px wide (and over 1020px wide), you will see the 1020px version. In other words, resize your browser’s width to make it smaller and when the site snaps into a smaller size, the first time that happens is the 1020px version.

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Can I make the whole site tighter? thanks.

Hi again,

Can you elaborate on what you mean by tighter? Do you mean make it even smaller than 1020px width? If so, I’m afraid not, the theme only allows for two main widths 1020px and 1200px, anything smaller would look way too small on desktops and lose the feel for the clean minimalist design of the theme

Cubell

Hey again,

Would you like to do that across the entire site to everything? If so, try using:

* { text-transform: none!important; }

Hope that helps.

Cubell

Thanks Cubell! That worked for all. But how do I target only certain Hs? I would like to have control over each instead of all at once.

No worries! Try replacing the * with a h1 to target h1’s, and h2 for h2’s. Is that what you meant?

Cubell

Hey Nimi86,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine.

Would you like to simply disable uppercase throughtout the site? If so, copy/paste the following code into your Theme Options -> Custom Code -> Custom CSS box:

* { text-transform: none !important; }

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Hey Njainb,

Thanks very much for the interest and love for the theme

1- No shortcodes are used for featured image styles or the homepage. I hate shortcodes, but unfortunately other authors have abused them to do things they aren’t supposed to do (such as create complex homepages or special content such as parallax embeds) so a lot of buyers expect them.

The featured image styles are an exclusive no-shortcode feature that I was the first author to introduce to Themeforest. You can see how easy it is to use by watching this video demo of it in action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcTbF5qCQls

The theme does come with some shortcodes, and they are only included because some users insist on wanting them, you can see a list of them here: http://docs.cubellthemes.com/15zine/#!/cubell_shortcodes

The dropcap option is one common feature that I didn’t add as a shortcode, and instead it is an option inside each post, so no ugly shortcodes that spill over to the RSS feed or social media shares, and if you change theme, no need to edit all posts to update the dropcap.

2- No, the 15Zine homepage builder was created exclusively for 15Zine and it does not use/need shortcodes either. However, one of the modules is called “custom code” module, where you can insert shortcodes from plugins or similar if you needed to execute a shortcode somewhere in the homepage.

If you change theme, your homepage will simply become a blank page.

3- The theme comes with an integrated lightbox, you can see what it looks like by clicking on the image embed in this post: http://15zine.cubellthemes.com/videogames/nintendo-wii/video-format-a/ but you can turn it off in the theme options and install your own if you wished to do that.

I hope this answers everything and thanks again!

Cubell

Got it! Forgot to check the feed first

No problemo

Hey BeatCheat,

The truth is, if you edited the normal theme files (I.e. not through a child-theme), then when you update the theme you will lose those customizations. If they are small customizations, I’d recommend making notes of them (or copy/pasting the code into notepad) and then re-applying it to the new update.

Cubell

Hey again,

Sorry but I’m still slightly confused by what you are trying to do. Do you mean you want mobile login icon to stay as it is, but on desktop, make it so it only shows the gravatar image if a user is logged in so instead of “Gravatar + Admin name” you just want “Gravatar”?

I am planning on adding an option to control how many sliders to show on the sliders shown on a “latest posts” style homepage. As if you add a grid slider of 3 in the pagebuilder, you do have the option already to set it to only show 3 posts (so it becomes a static grid of 3). Until then, i’m afraid it is quite a complicated customization (you need to change code to make the pagination and the offset reflect the changes you made) and it goes well beyond the scope of my free support policy!

Cubell

No problem i’ll wait for the update. And yes, to the first bit, I want the icon that you see (when you aren’t logged in) to not be replaced by an image/gravatar upon logging in. Can that be done?

That isn’t possible without customizing the code in core.php I’m afraid! I can point out what code it is if you open a ticket at http://support.cubellthemes.com

Cubell

Hey Allsopp,

I am good thanks, hope you are too

Ah that is because you are probably set to show 10 posts at a time. This is controlled by WordPress. Go to Settings -> Reading and change the 10 to something like 12, so that it looks even on all blog styles.

Hope this helps.

Cubell

Ah I see! For that excerpt, you would target it with:

.cb-module-block .cb-excerpt { font-size: 14px; }

And adjust the font size to your desired value.

Hope this helps

Cubell

Works wonders! Thanks

No problemo

Hey Ipwob,

Thanks for choosing 15Zine and for the kind words

1- There are users who have RTL sites they haven’t reported that yet, but it may be because your RTL plugin isn’t a true RTL setup, if you have a RTL site and it happens, definitely send me the URL and i’ll take a look, if it is happening it’ll definitely be a simple CSS tweak to fix it.

2- All the modules from the pagebuilder output automated data (posts), and the only user input really is the title of each module, so there isn’t any theme lock issues. As if you ever change theme, you will end up creating a new homepage completely using that theme’s homepage building system which would work completely different to 15Zine’s, but the content they could output would be the same.

Regarding OptionTree, I definitely do plan on moving to WordPress customizer eventually, but right this second, I still don’t believe it is good/powerful enough to replace something like OptionTree quite yet

Cubell

Hey Dorian,

It’s no problem, I’m happy to help

I definitely want to add more pagination and offset options to that block. And I also will be adding more controls for fonts in future updates.

Regarding the translation, did you follow the translation steps from the documentation? That is the best way to translate the theme into any language.

Cubell

Yes, I’ve checked it and the documentation needs to be updated due to recent Wordpress changes. So, for anyone reading this and having issues with the translation, you need to use $locale=’es_ES’; (or de_DE, depends on the language) instead of define (‘WPLANG’, ‘es_ES’); in the wp-config.php

Ah I see!

And after some more research, it’s actually even easier than that! You simply go to Settings -> General, and since WordPress 4.0 there is a main option to set the site to any language, without needing to code anything!

Hope this helps and I will be updating docs to reflect this. Thanks for letting me know!

Cubell
