Hi, I would like to ask for a refund as I am having several errors and the product did not turn out to be what I expected.

Regards.

Hi there, great looking theme, but having doubts since it hasn’t been updated for over 4 years. Do you have any plans in that direction?

HI there,
thank you for your interest. The theme is using WP standards and is fairly simple so it still do his job fine. I will roll out an update though checking everything up, thanks for the heads-up!

Regards
djwd

Thanks for your reply and happy to see that you will be looking at an update. Even if there’s not much need for change, it might do good for sales to have it updated regularly ;-)

An additional question before purchasing, though. In the demo I can see examples different post formats such as asides and quotes. But does the theme also support the link and gallery post formats? And if so, how does it handle these?

Hi there,
definitely agree..! Standard, aside and quotes are the post formats supported, others won’t make any difference on output.

Regards
djwd

djwd,

You have created an awesome theme, looks great on all devices and it is currently my first choice for running my personal blog.

Quick Question: Can you make the menu freeze itself to the top of the frame when you scroll down? If not can you add the feature?

If this feature is available, I would buy the theme in a heartbeat!

Thanks. Vatsan

Hi there,
thank you for your interest and nice words.

Unfortunately I can’t add “per-user” features, a custom job would be needed in order to achieve this (or some plugin perhaps).

Regards
djwd

Thanks for the reply.

Cheers

There’s a flaw in the design of the main menu. The last trailing slash overlaps the text.

Hi DjWd.

It is awesome theme. I have one question. Is there DropDown menu in your theme?

Thanks

Hi and thank you for your interest in PowerMag.

I’m not quite sure I understood your question though, on the live demo many menu items have a dropdown menu set.

Best

Hi djwd,

Fantastic theme! I have two questions:

Would you be able to send me a high-res copy of the background image used in the demo? And what is the font type used in the demo’s menu?

Cheers!

Hi there and thank you for your nice words :)

Which of the two demos are you referring to? Drop me an e-mail through my profile page and I’ll send you the files you need btw.

Cheers

hello, this is a very nice theme, I really like it. I have a a pre-sale question :) is it possible to make the blog page have an infinite scrolling feature, instead of clicking “load more posts”?

thanks, Vernon

Hi there, thank you for your interest in MobileFirst and compliments :)

Not from the options unfortunately, that would need to manually edit the JS file or rely on a plugin.

djwd

okay, thanks for your quick reply. much appreciated. wordpress offers the jetpack plugins, which can be installed as stand alone and offers infinite scroll. perhaps you can check this link and see if the implementation works with your theme. here’s the link http://jetpack.me/support/infinite-scroll/ if yes, I will just hit purchase… I’m in love witht he theme :)

I tried but I the wordpress.com connection seem not to work with local installs. Unfortunately I can’t test it out sorry.

djwd

Any plans on having a larger selection of social buttons? I’m specifically looking for 500px. Thanks.

hi elaberge,
thank you for your purchase.

No not in plans for the moment, I will look into 500px APIs to see what social interaction they provide though.

djwd

Hi there. Nice theme but do you know if this theme is compatible with Buddypress?

Hi cathlick, thank you for your interest in MobileFirst.

This in mainly a personal blog theme, with the proper template files it should work but I’ve never tested it with BuddyPress personally.

djwd

How can I use custom post types? I have the problem: I have edited and created some queries but when I click on a post it gives me a 404 page. Could you send me a code, please? :)

BTW: I have bought the mobile bundle which in was this theme.

Hi Lchief. Unfortunately the mobile bundle is not eligible for support as Envato says:

“Due to the exclusive nature of the Mobile Bundle, the bundle items are purchased ‘as-is’, meaning no bundle files are eligible for item support or updates.”

i guess you should decide bacause you are the Author Could you help me, please?

It’s just that I can’t work for free unless it’s something real quick ;)

I am having issues when I insert a Word Press image gallery into a post. When I view the gallery and click on any of the images, they do not show up, an ‘X’ shows up instead. When I create the gallery, under gallery settings, I am clicking link to ‘Media File’. My blog is www.derekjerrell.com and it is the ‘Gallery Test’ post. Here is a link directly to the post: http://wp.me/p3oH9e-nQ.

Can you tell me what I need to do to correct this?

Thanks,

Derek

Hi, images must be linked to the image file (.jpg, png, etc..) in order to work with the viewer. If you already set the images to link to the Media File, please try the following:

1. create the gallery

2. Link to the attachment page

3. Save the gallery

4. Update the post

5. Re-open the gallery

6. now link the images to the Media File

7. Update the gallery and save the post again

I am very happy with this theme. However, I am experiencing issues with the Twitter (latest tweets) widget. It does not seem to be working correctly. I can view it on my desktop (Firefox & IE) and the last 3 tweets display, but when I view it on a mobile device (iPad & Galaxy S 3) the widget displays but the tweets do not. Can you take a look at this? This was one of the features that I really liked and mobile use is my priority.

In your last communication, you indicated that you were working on a fix. Do you know when that fix will be available for use?

Thanks,

Derek

Hi, our “last communication” was 3 days ago, nothing changed since that..! Follow me on Twitter to be notified about any update.

djwd

Hi Is there a way to turn off excerpts on the home page. I prefer to use the Read More links I use in my posts and not the automatic excerpt cut off.

Thanks

Also the theme is not appearing in the ‘bloody’ color set.

I replied and explained to the e-mail you also sent ;)

Yes you did. Thank you for that :)

My URL is www.derekjerrell.com. The twitter widget seems to display fine when I view it on desktops. However, when viewed on mobile devices, the twitter widget does not show any of the tweets. I have viewed this on multiple mobile platforms and I can’t get any of the tweets to display.

Thanks, Derek

Hi,
I just noticed this is happening on the live demo too, it is something recent. I need some time to figure out what’s going on and release some fix if necessary.

Thanks for your feedback.

djwd

I just wanted to touch base and see if you knew when this issue would be resolved?

I’m considering rebuilding the whole widget because of this. By the way it will be available in the next update. Thanks for your patience

Hi derekjerrell

There shouldn’t be any difference with the twitter widget on a desktop or on a mobile device. Can you link your blog please?

Thanks,
djwd

The URL is, www.derekjerrell.com

I just purchased this theme – had a couple quick questions.

1. Where can I get the background image that was showcased on the live demo/preview?

2. What is the recommended size (width, height?) for featured images?

Thanks,

Derek

Hi derekjerrell,
thank you for your purchase.

1. If you can’t find it in your images folder just drop me an e-mail through my profile page and I’ll send it to you.

2. Minimum recommended width is 1100px, height will adjust automatically.

djwd

If I use a larger image, say 1500 px wide, will it automatically scale it down to 1100px or will it handle this size?

Yes bigger images won’t be a problem, they will adapt to fit blog entries. Also smaller images will adapt but in that case there will be an inevitable quality loss.

djwd

Just wanted to compliment you on this theme. Really beautiful. Best wishes.

Thank you very much for your kind words milest, appreciate :)

In a previous post, you mentioned “To remove the greyscale filter paste this into the Advanced > Custom CSS textarea…...

blog img { filter: none; -webkit-filter: none}’.

Where can one find this? Do I have to do this for each featured image for each blog post or is there a way to shut this feature off permanently?

No you need to paste that CSS in the Advanced > Custom CSS text area, only once.

Hi. I’m considering purchasing this template. Can you suggest a widget for users to subscribe to my blog so that they get emails each time I enter a new blog entry? I’m totally new to blogging and WP and don’t intend to tweet. Thanks for your help.

sorry to be a pain. Is there a how-to doc available. Just switched my previous blog over and all my images are now hidden in blog posts where they used to be featured. Cannot intuitively find a way to select option to feature an image in a post.

Disregard…....found it in your docs. Thanks so much!

Perfect. :)
