Discussion on Crush - The Portfolio Theme

HI, you would need to use custom CSS to do that, but it wouldn’t be that hard. Re the e-commerce, perhaps if enough people request it. But it’s not on any immediate lists.

Jesse

Hi, thanks for the quick response.

Plan to purchase the theme in the next couple of hours Would be great if e -commerce was added in the future.

Good Luck with further sales

Ben

Thanks Ben, let me know if you have any pre-purchase questions.

I would like to edit 3 things on the theme, and would just like your assistance on how to do theme:

1. Make the image hover effect the opposite to the CSS3 Greyscale effect in the Test Drive mode (without the title on hover)

2. Add a budget option in the contact form (in £)

3. Make the image on each blog post appear to the left of the title ad excerpt. (Like Kerem Suer’s blog – http://kerem.co/blog)

Are these possible, and how would I go about doing this?

(Gave you a follow on Twitter by the way )

Cheers Ben

1) This custom css does that. http://snippi.com/s/mq5lh8j (tested on testdrive and working). You would need to un tick the greyscale option from the “image hover” tab.

2) You would need to directly edit the send.php and also the page-contact.php directly. Perhaps a job for a developer.

3) You could use custom css to float the ‘masonry-image’ to the left or right and the content will sit next to it. The problem though is you would need to accommodate for mobile devices with a few media queries.

Best Regards Jesse

Thanks for your help. Purchased the theme. How do I select the ‘minimal’ style once in my Wordpress admin panel? I cannot find how to change the style from the standard one to the minimal one. Thanks

Hi Ben, there are no set versions of the theme or pre-made skins, just different settings in the theme customiser. As outlined in the docs (http://docs.visualkicks.com/crush/#customize-demo ) you can just copy the settings 1 for 1 from test drive into your own site. Shouldn’t take more then a couple of minutes (and you’ll learn a lot about the theme in the process).

Jesse

Do you mean the ‘inline’ svg greyscale filter or am I missing something here?

Best Regards Jesse

I would like to buy this theme, but I need permanent links for the portfolio categories. Like, .com/crush/standard/portfolio/audio/...

You can link to both portfolio filters and portfolio categories. Although, we have made it so filters aren’t clickable (because they’re filters not categories )

The fullscreen demo demonstrates this. Category as archive: http://demo.visualkicks.com/crush/fullscreen/portfolio-category/portfolio-1/

Category as page with template of “portfolio” listing the category “portfolio 1”: http://demo.visualkicks.com/crush/fullscreen/portfolio-1/

Also, i’ll direct you to this bit of info in the docs: http://docs.visualkicks.com/crush/#portfolio-multiple

I hope that helps, Jesse

edit: ps – it’s unlimited portfolios if thats what you want.

Also, just for completeness sake – http://demo.visualkicks.com/crush/standard/portfolio_filter/gallery/

Well, yes I see what you’re saying. It’s okay when you showcase some of your work, but when you publish hundreds of entries… I mean, it’s simple to manage like it is right now, at the same time not so simple. And imagine I wanna change the theme after two years, what do I do with all those entries? I’m looking for something simple, normal like having categories and subcats… God, that’s a shame, I really love this theme. You broke my heart

Ahh, thats a shame. You could always just add your filter or category permalinks to the main menu? Like how I put them above?

In any case, thank your for the interest in the theme!

Jesse

If I do like you say, how will the entries relate? Like here for example on “More Work” — http://demo.visualkicks.com/crush/standard/portfolio/design-process

How do you relate Portfolio-1 with Sub-portfolio-1 in the “more work” section? That is what I’m trying to understand, sorry.

God, what have you done?! I’ll kill you, Jesse! :))))
