hey there…

i have recently upgraded to v2.0. in this version besides the photography portfolio page, i have added an extra department called “video” and put that up as a menu item. when i enter the video page only “all” shows as a department which is ok cos i’m not gonna cathegorise videos (http://ugurvidinligil.com/department/videos/). but on my photography page (http://ugurvidinligil.com/photography/) videos department is visible. i do not want it there. is there a way to get it out of there and make it visible only in video page?

cheers…

Hi, i see what you mean. You are using photography as the top level department (was named “portfolio” by default), and all other departments are under photography, and as they are siblings, all of them including “videos” showing up under photography. You need to change your department structure a little.

You need to create two departments at level one, Photography and Videos, then create other departments as sub departments for photography. So videos departments wont be nested inside photography department and wont show in photography filters.

so i delete and create the departments again, only when creating departments like still life, people, places etc i will choose photography as a parent & put photography as a menu just like i did it with my videos.. did i get it right?

thanks again…

Yes, you get it right.

I have a few questions about your theme – great work, by the way!

Firstly – I’m having trouble getting the home slider to show up. I’m not seeing anything even though I’ve created 3 slides.

Secondly – I want to change the text before you enter a comment (about rel=”nofollow”) to another message.

Thanks!

Thanks so much for your help with the highlight and the comments. Worked perfectly.

However, I’m still having issues with the text that’s supposed to appear next to the home page slider. None of it shows up after I’ve added the text in settings.

I appreciate your help!

Hi,

1- Please make sure you have selected slider type : small, on responsy settings > Home tab.

2- After you have entered text make sure you are clicking “Save” button.

Thanks! Great theme! :)

Hi, I’ve detected an issue with the Twitter Widget, which seems not to be working properly because of the URL it uses to get the information.

At least in my case, the application is unable to reach these urls: http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/[username_here].json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=5
http://twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js

I’ve changed them to: http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline/[username_here].json?callback=twitterCallback2&count=5
http://api.twitter.com/javascripts/blogger.js

and it works.

I just wanted to comment it to you in case you wanted to correct it in next releases.

Best regards.

Hi, last time we checked twitter script was working fine but we will retest the twitter script, thanks for the feedback.

Thank you for this great theme! Please help me, how can i update to the latest version?

Hi, you can install latest theme responsy-v2.0.zip as a separate theme, then activate it, your settings are saved.

Hello, I want to ask if i can add more posts in homepage?(from the blog widget) i had the blog widget (3 latest posts) and i want perhaps 6 posts appearing in home page. if there is a way tell me… thanks!

Hi, you will be able to define post count for homepage in the next update, which comes tomorrow probably.

Hi nice work on this awesome theme. I wanted to know where I could add more input fields for the contact page if possible?

Thank you,

Hi, we have added this feature for next update which comes in a few days.

Hi, I downloaded and installed the new update and there was no area to create new input fields for the contact page. Is it located somewhere else?

Thank you,

Hi sorry, it looks like i couldnt get your point at the first time, here is a few suggestions;

1-) You can edit contact.php and contact_send_mail.php to add more input filelds,

2-) Alternatively go to responsy settings > Contact tab : disable contact form, install Contact Form 7 plugin, then go to contact form 7 settings page, create a contact form with your fields, save , and finally go to Pages : find your contact page and edit it, click the contact form 7 button in the editor area, enter your new created contact form id and update the page, your new contact form will appear under the map in contact page.

On the portfolio page – on the categories you can click from at the top how do i change the word ‘all’ to ‘All’ to capitalize it?

Hi, add the code below to Responsy Settings > Style > Custom CSS box, that should do it;

#filters li:first-child a { text-transform: capitalize; }

How do we get rid of the titles on subpages? I made an ‘about’ page, but i want to get rid of the section below the logo that says ‘About’ in the big blocky font…if we can’t get rid of it, how do I change it to a different font?

Hi, you can use custom css to remove page headers, copy the code below into Settings > Style > Custom CSS box;

.page-header h1 { display:none; }
.page-header { border:0; }

this only seems to remove the dashed line below the title

I have just checked the code, and it works, removes page title (h1) and its border at the same time.

one little question, on the homepage, i edited the slider text, but i cant use capital letter, how i can fix this fast ?

Hi, this is weird, just checked again, uppercase in slide text works fine.

hm, tried everything, but in the the “Call To Action Title” no capital letters work .

Ok, i get it now, add the code below to Responsy Settings > Style > Custom CSS box, it should be fine;

.aside h2 { text-transform:none; }

awesome theme!

Thanks!

Is it possible to disable the fluid layout? When I resize within browser it seems to keep reducing in size, any help would be great :)

Hi, well since this is a responsive layout theme, it adapts itself to various screen sizes, this is achieved via css3 media queries. If you still want to disable this flexible layout, you need to delete the code blocks which begins with ”@media {” and ends with a close bracket “}”, it will also make layout 960px fixed, if you still want to preserve “1170px” layout in wide screens, dont remove the media query code with 1200px ;

@media (min-width: 1200px) {

Thanks, I wanted to leave that in but the client wanted to stop it go figure :)

Aghh, clients :)

Is it possible to add a ‘remove subtitle function’? For now, can i just delete ‘small<?php echo get_post_meta( $page_out, ‘page_subtitle’, true ); ?>/small’?

How do you mean ‘leave blank subtitle input for any page’, in a php file or in wordpress admin?

At the moment it automaticaly posts the name of the author as a subtitle within the h1. I don’t think it’s good for SEO … Especialy when it’s the same on every page.

If i have to remove the code in the php file, do i have to repeat this with every update? I’m not very familiar with child themes.

Hi again, i meant wp admin, subtitle feature is optional for pages, but in blog pages it gets post authors name automatically, you can use the custom css below, but it will hide the subtitles in all pages. We will add a feature (disable subtitle in blog pages) for this in next update.

.page-header h1 small { display:none; }

Thank you very much!

It’s a great theme! Thank you very much.

Thanks, glad you liked it :)

Has any one else had a problem with the sliders? I added three new sliders, but they’re not showing up. All I get is an image that says “Placeholder”...which looks like the image used in the client section.

replied via mail.

Hi… just noticed – sidebar widgets don’t seem to have any style ID’s.

Looking at the functions.php file, it would be great if the IDs of page_sidebar_1 and page_sidebar_2 etc. were added. Ideally, the wrappers around the widget areas should contain the IDs/classes .

At the moment, I’m seeing the widgets appear in the sidebar, but not any style IDs. I like to get very precise control over positioning of various elements but it’s tricky without having appropriate classes or ids!

Please can this be added? (HINT: cough.. using the before_widget... cough... in the functions.php… cough... around line 1464 in version 2.0… cough... try using

<di.v id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s"> .

.. as explained on the Automatic website… cough... you can find it here: http://automattic.com/code/widgets/themes/ :P )

Thanks again in advance!

Hi, yes all widgets wrappers has same class, but inner divs has different classes, you can still style widget content by this class, thanks.

Hi again,

Thanks for the reply… At the moment the IDs and appropriate classes won’t show as the before_widget doesn’t contain the id="%1$s" or the class="widget %2$s" for the various widget areas in the functions.php file.

These special variables actually help to place appropriate class and style IDs to help the theme with labelling widgets.

Basically, all that needs to be done is to replace the existing ‘before_widgets’ to look like this:

'before_widget' => '<di.v id="%1$s" class="widget clearfix %2$s">',

(Note: remove the . from “div” – it’s only there as this editor won’t show the code properly otherwise!).

Trust me, I’ve actually built and tweaked themes before, and one this simple ‘trick’ really helps to improve the sidebar widget areas. Using these helps Developers to get really specific with styling information (e.g. creating a background colour for one widget area and not another etc.).

What this will do is, for example, give each text widget a unique ID of #text-1, #text-2 etc.

...and if you don’t ‘trust me’, then just look it up on the Automatic website (link above). It’s how those guys suggest widgetizing themes ‘properly’. ;)

Anyway, I hope this suggestion helps to improve your already excellent theme. It would be really great to see this minor tweak in a future version!

Hi, we will consider this, thanks again for the feedback.

Hi (again),

Thanks for including the external stylesheet and javascript option under the Style setting tab. Very useful – I’m now able to link directly to my font.css file and override the default fonts! Very cool…

One minor point to note – in order to achieve this, I had to put the full html tag <link rel='stylesheet' href='/css/fonts.css' type='text/css' media='all' /> to get it to work properly. Otherwise it simply outputs the /css/fonts.css.

Looking at the source code, I also note that an additional: <style type="text/css"> </style> appears under the inserted text. Was this supposed to contain the css file reference?

Minor note: A little short description would be useful explaining what the field does (and how to use it).

Theoretically, if the filed simply outputs the full HTML tags (like I have above), then there’s no need to have the JS field. 1 field could be used to include all developer required CSS & JS… just a thought!

Thanks again! I’ve recommended this theme to people already. :)

Hi, yes you are right, one textbox would be enough for both js and css references, will merge this boxes, thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the advise. However now in 2.0 I have set up a new menu and it still appears in blue bullet points.

Also my recent posts now no longer appears, and the box to make it hide is not ticked.

Thank you for your quick reply it is much appreciated.

Steve

Hi,

1-) Menu should be working fine, i suspect if you are missing a point. Under Appearance > Menus, on the right side Create your menu, and fill it with page links, and click Save Menu, then on the right side, in the Navigation Menu section, select your menu name you just created and click Save below.

2-) in v2.0 homepage modules are widgets, navigate to Appearance > Widgets, drag and drop homepage widgets to homepage widgets area, that should be enough.

p.s also my portfolio section doesn’t work anymore.

thanks

steve

Hi

Really love the theme. I have to things at the moment.

1. When I update to 2.0 the menu at the top appears without any styling and just appears in blue bullet pointed links.

2. I then went back to 1.4 my slider worked for a while. But now it just has the spinning loading icon. and it also does this in 2.0.

Can you Help me.

Thanks

Steve

Hi,

1- After updating to v2.0, you need to reselect your menu under Appearance > Menus, and save settings

2- I guess a plugin you have added, causing script error, try to disable all plugins and enable them one by one with testing to see which one is causing the error.

Please ignore my previous post. I’ve figured out what has happening. Thanks for a great theme!
