If you have three images in your normal wordpress gallery and you choose one of them as a featured image, you get 4 images in the slideshow. I don't want that. How can I fix this? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85947 Fri, 30 Nov 2012 01:47:17 +0000 Nick 85947@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>This post <a href="http://wordpress.org/support/topic/open-nextgen-gallery-from-link-or-single-image" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/support/topic/open-nextgen-gallery-from-link-or-single-image</a> explains how to remove duplicate from Nextgen gallery.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85851 Thu, 29 Nov 2012 12:33:57 +0000 ozgurpolat 85851@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin,</p> <p>If you go to my web site: <a href="http://ozgurpolat.com/newscast/?p=96" rel="nofollow">http://ozgurpolat.com/newscast/?p=96</a></p> <p>You will see that there is a featured image and three other images. In reality there are actually three images in my galery and I use one of them as a featured image. But when I do that, I get four images and the first one is repeated. I used,</p> <pre><code>#top.single-post .entry-previewimage.rounded { display: none; }</code></pre> <p>in stle.css but this removes the fatured image all together. I would like to keep the featured image but I don't want to display repeated images.</p> <p>Regards </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85607 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 18:00:31 +0000 Devin 85607@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey ozgurpolat,</p> <p>Add the following to the bottom of your style.css file:<br /> <pre><code>#top.single-post .entry-previewimage, #top.single-post .entry-previewimage a, #top.single-post .entry-previewimage img { width: 400px; height: 400px; }</code></pre> <p>You can adjust the height and width as needed.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85512 Tue, 27 Nov 2012 09:19:24 +0000 ozgurpolat 85512@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Devin</p> <p>Here is an example post.</p> <p><a href="http://ozgurpolat.com/newscast/?p=96" rel="nofollow">http://ozgurpolat.com/newscast/?p=96</a></p> <p>The standard featured image size is quite small for my liking, I would like to be able to enlarge it. How can I do that? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85399 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 17:20:27 +0000 Devin 85399@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ozgurpolat,</p> <p>You can change the size of the image generated in your functions.php lines 12-16. You'll need to regenerate your images afterwards with <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/</a> .</p> <p>However this won't necessarily change what is displayed on the front end depending on which area you are trying to modify specifically.</p> <p>For posts, the featured image is automatically added to the top but that image is also attached to that post type. So when you add in the wordpress gallery shortcode/function it adds in ALL images that have beeb associated with that post included the featured image.</p> <p>The most straightforward way to remove the image on single posts is to add the following to the bottom of your style.css file:<br /> <pre><code>#top.single-post .entry-previewimage.rounded { display: none; }</code></pre> <p>If this isn't what you are looking for, can you post a link to the page and point out exactly what you'd like to change/modify.</p> <p>Regards,</p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-85342 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 08:36:26 +0000 Dude 85342@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi! </p> <p> I tagged this thread for Kriesi's attention. </p> <p> Best regards,<br /> Peter </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/your-theme-supports-1-menu-select-which-menu-you-would-like-to-use#post-85252 Sun, 25 Nov 2012 01:31:20 +0000 Ismael 85252@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>We as support theme doesn't really fix or update the theme to solve the issues. We tag Kriesi to a certain issue and he always do his best to update the themes to fix the said issues. That is not an easy job. </p> <p>Unfortunately he might have skipped this one. Thanks for bringing it up. We will tag Kriesi again so that he could take a look. Sorry for the inconvenience.</p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/newscast-featured-image-size#post-85239 Sat, 24 Nov 2012 22:38:50 +0000 ozgurpolat 85239@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>How can I change the size of the featured image in Newscast theme? And When I activate the featured image I have one more additional image, if I use the images from the gallery then one image is repeated. How can I prevent that? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/your-theme-supports-1-menu-select-which-menu-you-would-like-to-use#post-85228 Sat, 24 Nov 2012 18:00:34 +0000 ozgurpolat 85228@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>This menu problem in newscast theme is not new, with a some research I figured out how to fix it. It wasn't easy to find out though. Because there is a post which explains everything but you cannot find this post when you do the search only when you look at some other posts, there is a link to this one which explains how to fix the problem. For those searching how to fix it here it is:</p> <p><a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/theme-supports-only-one-menu" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/theme-supports-only-one-menu</a></p> <p>In the two year old post above James Morrison who is a moderator says: "Hey, This seems to be a bug which can easily be fixed. Open up /framework/helper_functions/nav_menu.php and find this code: ..."</p> <p>You have to find a file and modify the code inside to enable two different menus. This menu problem is I think quite old, because I have seen posts referring to this problem as old as two years ago. </p> <p>Recently a new version of newscast was released, so my question is this: Wouldn't be easier for you to fix these issues in the new version of the theme so that people do not ask the same question over and over again, which will save you time? Why don't you fix these common problems with updates? In the shoutbox theme, I have a problem with the slider not working on ipad properly. This problem was also supposed to be fixed with the new update and I noticed that it hasn't been fixed and I cannot find out when or how I can solve this problem. Same thing. Could someone explain why you don't fix common problems with new updates? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-85227 Sat, 24 Nov 2012 17:19:16 +0000 ozgurpolat 85227@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have decided to keep the existing slider but every time I ask the question about the ipad issue, I don't get an answer. I really would like to know the nature of the problem, how difficult it is to fix. Because ipad is very important for me. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84487 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 01:10:07 +0000 Ismael 84487@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>There are different ways to create a Home page with a different slider but the easiest way is to create a new template like template-fullwidth.php. Duplicate the file then rename this line of code to something else.</p> <p><code>Template Name: Fullwidth Page</code></p> <p>Replace it with </p> <p><code>Template Name: New Homepage</code></p> <p>Now find this code </p> <pre><code>$slider = new avia_slideshow(avia_get_the_ID()); echo $slider-&gt;display();</code></pre> <p>You can replace that with the new slider code or shortcode if you are using a slider plugin. You can now create a page then select "New Homepage" as the template. </p> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84481 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 22:45:07 +0000 ozgurpolat 84481@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>If I wanted to change the slider on the main page with another slider like the one Nick recomended or any other slider, how can I do that?</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84423 Sun, 18 Nov 2012 04:39:33 +0000 Ismael 84423@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I think it is possible to show more featured thumbnails. You can start by adding this on your custom.css</p> <pre><code>.feature_thumb { width: 90px; min-height: 60px; } .feature_thumb img { width: 80px; }</code></pre> <p>Regards,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84365 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 10:41:29 +0000 ozgurpolat 84365@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Ok, another question the, is it possible to make the thumbnail pictures smaller so that we can fit in lets say 6 instead of three pictures? :) And When do you think kriesi might solve ipad problem? :) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84364 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 10:40:09 +0000 ozgurpolat 84364@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <br /> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84354 Sat, 17 Nov 2012 09:01:20 +0000 Nick 84354@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Ozgur,</p> <p>I can't 'borrow' a piece of a completely different slider and have it work with the one you are using. It's like taking the transmission from a BMW and trying to install it on a Mercedes. Besides, the owner of BMW will get upset. :)</p> <p>I think it would be easiest for you to find a slider plugin (free on wordpress) and various premium ones on Code Canyon if you feel having this functionality is crucial.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84323 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 22:01:29 +0000 ozgurpolat 84323@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Nick,</p> <p>I hope you understand what I mean, on the main page there is a big slider and underneath there are small thumbnails and you can slide them with a small slider using your mouse. As you remember there is still an issue in Ipads, that you cannot pick the slider and move. I don't want to change the whole slider, because I like it, but instead of using the sliding button, can we use arrows like the examples below:</p> <p>Here is one example:</p> <p><a href="http://dimsemenov.com/plugins/touchcarousel-wp/#example-4" rel="nofollow">http://dimsemenov.com/plugins/touchcarousel-wp/#example-4</a></p> <p>and here is another one:</p> <p><a href="http://codecanyon.net/item/thumbnail-scroller-wordpress-plugin/full_screen_preview/2068683?ref=kriesi" rel="nofollow">http://codecanyon.net/item/thumbnail-scroller-wordpress-plugin/full_screen_preview/2068683?ref=kriesi</a></p> <p>Thanks.</p> <p>Ozgur </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84276 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 18:19:01 +0000 Nick 84276@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please provide a url to the slider you describe.</p> <p>There is a multitude of custom sliders available as plugins. That is the beauty of Wordpress, that you can always swap out the features to customize your theme the way you want it to look. </p> <p>Here is a new slider that i personally like <a href="http://www.parallaxslider.com/mouseinteraction.php" rel="nofollow">http://www.parallaxslider.com/mouseinteraction.php</a></p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-84222 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 12:30:52 +0000 ozgurpolat 84222@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have recently seen a slider on various web sites which are quite similar to shoutbox, but the difference is that instead of the slider that you hold and move with the mouse, they have two big buttons with an arrow on each side as you press them left or right, the thumbnails move. I am not sure how easy to implement this but it can be an alternative. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/menu-problems-with-the-latest-updated-version-of-the-shoutbox-theme#post-83806 Wed, 14 Nov 2012 06:00:31 +0000 Ismael 83806@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi ozgurpolat,</p> <p>Glad that this is resolved. :)</p> <p>Cheers,<br /> Ismael </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/menu-problems-with-the-latest-updated-version-of-the-shoutbox-theme#post-83696 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 17:44:04 +0000 ozgurpolat 83696@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I have just realized that a firewall is blocking the images in the megamenu, for some strange reason I cannot see the images when I visit the web site from a work computer which is behind a firewall. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/menu-problems-with-the-latest-updated-version-of-the-shoutbox-theme#post-83656 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 15:42:52 +0000 ozgurpolat 83656@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>I have installed the latest version of the shoutbox theme and imported the dummy data. I was mainly concerned about the slider not working on my ipad which has not been resolved yet but then I realized that the main menu is not working (megamenu does not work properly, the images in the category 1 to 4 are missing). Please check my web site: <a href="http://ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/" rel="nofollow">http://ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/</a></p> <p>When I visit </p> <p><a href="http://www.kriesi.at/themedemo/?theme=shoutbox" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/themedemo/?theme=shoutbox</a> </p> <p>I see that the megamenu is working properly. I did not have this problem with the older version of the theme.</p> <p>I think I can say that there is something wrong with the latest update. Are you guys aware of this problem? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-82457 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 05:36:37 +0000 Dude 82457@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey! </p> <p> Yes, you're using version 1.3 and it's the latest version. However based on the changelog I'd say that Kriesi didn't fix the IPad issue yet. I'll mark this thread for Kriesi's attention. </p> <p> Best regards,<br /> Peter </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-82415 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 21:40:42 +0000 ozgurpolat 82415@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Nick,</p> <p>I completely deleted the shoutbox in my host, and installed a fresh version of shoutbox theme I downloaded from themeforest today.</p> <p>First thing, there is no CHANGE WHAT SO EVER in terms of its behaviour on IPAD. Are you sure you guys have tested this on IPADS? I cannot move the slider, and I am using IPAD2 ios 5.0.1</p> <p>I haven't noticed any change in the slider either in terms of its look and behaviour.</p> <p>Now, Are you sure that Themeforest is providing the latest files, if so are you sure that you gave them the latest files?</p> <p>please take a look at the new fresh installation here and if possible try it with an ipad:</p> <p><a href="http://ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/" rel="nofollow">http://ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/</a></p> <p>Regards </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-82249 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 07:13:19 +0000 Nick 82249@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Both of the themes have been updated and should be available on Themeforest. Please be aware that any changes you've made to the template files will be overwritten by the update, so keep a backup copy of your current website so that you can transfer the updates if required. It is much better to use child themes so that during future updates your modifications to the templates do not get deleted. When you've updates see if the slider is more inline with your suggestions.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-82196 Sun, 04 Nov 2012 14:47:50 +0000 ozgurpolat 82196@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Nick,</p> <p>2. (TICK!)</p> <p>Yes it worked ! This is really cool. :) Thank you very much. You can check it out here: </p> <p><a href="http://www.ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ozgurpolat.com/shoutbox/</a></p> <p>3. (TICK) , I am putting a tick to this one, because I feel that it requires significant amount of work to get the thumbnail pictures move slowly when the mouse goes over them, am I right?</p> <p>4 This is my last question. Please visit the following link and click on the image in this post,</p> <p><a href="http://www.kriesi.at/themes/newscast/2010/03/06/why-doesnt-apple-rebrand-to-banana/" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/themes/newscast/2010/03/06/why-doesnt-apple-rebrand-to-banana/</a></p> <p>You will see that the gallery will open up and when you move your mouse over the picture, you will see an arrow and "NEXT" on the right side of the picture. Now, I already tried this in newscast, if I have more than one picture, I can keep clicking on the "NEXT" arrow, when it reaches to the last picture, if you click "NEXT" again it starts from the first picture.</p> <p>In Shoutbox theme, if you open up a gallery, it will look similar to the newscast gallery but, YOU WILL NOT SEE "NEXT" arrow in the gallery and when you reach the last image in the gallery, the arrow on the right disappears and to start again you have to move to the left side and go back. Whereas in NEwscast gallery you don't have to do that you can just keep clicking on the next and it will start from the first picture.</p> <p>My question is, why the designer did not use the same gallery for both themes, they almost look identical, but the one in Newscast behaves much better. And My question is how can I use the gallery of newscast in shoutbox theme?</p> <p>Thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/main-page-slider-can-look-much-better#post-82137 Sat, 03 Nov 2012 23:03:12 +0000 Nick 82137@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Please try this. </p> <p>Make a backup and open avia.js file located in the /js/ directory of the theme and find line 142 which should look like<br /> <pre><code>video = $(&#39;.videoslide, .comboslide&#39;, this),</code></pre> <p>and replace it with<br /> <pre><code>video = $(&#39;.videoslide, .comboslide, .imageslide&#39;, this),</code></pre> <p>Now I didn't test this, so be ready to revert back to the original file if things don't go according to plan, so make sure you have a backup of the file ready. Also please empty your browser cache , otherwise you may not see any changes.</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>Nick </p>
