Hello, I remember you had an option in the earlier version to remove the top most part of the header (with social buttons and search option). Has it been removed in the latest update? I cannot find out in the theme admin panel.

Hello,

I’ll add this option to the next theme update.

Thank you

Thank you Dannci!

Hi. On IE 11, the posts don’t load on the homepage – I think it’s an issue with the animation. Is there a way I can disable it?

Hi Can the theme have normal pagination in Grid Layout? How is it done?

Hello,

sorry this is not possible.

Thank you

Hello,

For megamenu, how can I exclude spesific post IDs from menu? Some of posts has too much views but I dont want to show these posts on megamenu.

Hello,

sorry, this is not possible. Thank you

hello, the theme looks great! how much flexibility is there with the masonry grid? could the posts’ images be resized manually, or is it only by the grid in the demo? thank you!

Hello and thank you!

For every partial post on the homepage, you can choose which image size (standard=small / big / vertical / horizontal) will be used. This way is created masonry layout on the homepage.

Thank you

hi, what do you mean “partial post”? basically my client needs a masonry layout, but that she could resize every image manually to the exact size she wants – for example that there could be 3 images on 3 columns, but then beneath them only one image at the width of those 3 columns. thank you.

Hello, in post, in options tab you can select size which will be used on the homepage (standard=small / big / vertical / horizontal): https://prnt.sc/h6vquc

Position of the post on the front page is not fixed (cannot be chosen), masonry script place posts automatically for best position without gaps.

Hi Dannci, I am having trouble getting this theme to make posts appear on the homepage in the big, vertical and horizontal formats. http://www.stylishchap.com/ I have set the post ‘test’ to the setting ‘big’ but it does nothing at all. Also i have added a header image (728×90) with link, and this isn’t displaying.

Please can you let me know why this is happening.

Hi,

I bought this theme and its awesome but when I entered datas to reviews field on pages, reviews isn’t shown. Actually that functions is not available on your demo too: http://capethemes.com/demo/blockmagazine/there-were-twenty-chieftains-about-the-rostrum-and-twenty-swords-flashed-high-in-assent-there-was-no-alternative

How can I ıse rating feature?

Hello,

rating feature was discontinued in the theme, it is a plugin related field so you need to use some plugin which fits your needs.

Thank you

so which plugin you advise? There’re lots of plugins that we can use but which one fit for these fields? By the way “rating” feature would be great; If you release new version with that, it’ll be awesome!

Hello,

rating functionality is not allowed in themes; as I said it is a field for plugins. You can try this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-review/ we use it for some themes.

Thank you

Do you have a lightbox integrated? Every item in the demo seems to link to it’s own page. And, can a video w/ lightbox be used as part of the grid on the homepage demo (so the video pops up right there)?

Hello,

I recommend to use a plugin for gallery purposes; I have enabled ‘Tiled Gallery’ plugin, the design and functionality are possible to see here: http://capethemes.com/demo/blockmagazine/for-a-minute-or-two-she-stood-looking-at-the-house

Thank you

Hi guys. how come the “big” image on your demo homepage has a larger height then you can achieve within the “size and shape” settings? creating a flush gird at the bottom ?

Hello just wondered if you’d come across this problem at all – in android browser (and windows browser sometimes) on mobile the submenus don’t stay open in the navbar, they close straight away which means you can’t choose a submenu item… Any ideas on what is causing the problem?? Thanks!

Hello there,

in next days will come new theme update, this update will include new/better mobile menu with much better UX.

Thank you

Hello thanks so much for letting me know, will i receive an email to notify me of the new update?

Thanks :)

Hello, yes, you will be notified, or just check ‘Last Update’ date on theme page. Thank you

Pre-sales questions: In the mosaic homepage layout, I read it’s not possible to filter the categories of the posts, but is it possible to stick certain posts and quotes to the top so they always appear? Can I remove icons and box-bullet from menu item? And lastly, I’m assuming it’s possible to remove the row above the mosaic that contains the little news boxes? Many thanks, great looking theme (just making sure I can adapt it to the requirements of the client).

sorry, one more question – can you specify the number of posts shown in the mosaic?

Hello and thank you for your interest!

- you can use only native ‘sticky post’ feature to keep post on the first place

- yes, you can remove icons and box-bullet from the menu

- yes, carousel is optional

- yes, you specify the number of posts

Thank you

that’s fantastic, thanks so much!

I like your theme, but before I purchase, do you have function like infinite scroll like in this theme http://demo.tagdiv.com/newspaper/homepage-infinite-scroll/ ? If you dont have it, how we can achieve it? using plugins? Thank you, Regards

Hello and thank you for your interest!

Theme offers infinite scroll / loading which is visible on demo page only: http://capethemes.com/demo/blockmagazine/

Other types of “infinite scrolling” are not available.

Thank you

Thank you Dannci!

How do I download the documentation for this theme. I haven’t configured the blog yet although I bought it long back. Need to know if I can configure multiple categories on top
