Please compress your images. For example - this image <a href="http://christinamrozik.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/600x698-450x525.png" rel="nofollow">http://christinamrozik.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/600x698-450x525.png</a> is 613K (an image of this type should not be png anyways but a jpg) but even if you keep it as a png and run it through a lossless compressor (which Photoshop doesn't use) , it will come out 186K, a 70% reduction without any difference in the way it looks ( <a href="http://tinypng.org/" rel="nofollow">http://tinypng.org/</a> ) See for yourself. ... When you add up all the images on the homepage, after optimizing the page will be a few megs smaller, a very significant reduction in load time (especially on mobile devices). You can also install this free app on your desktop <a href="http://pnggauntlet.com/" rel="nofollow">http://pnggauntlet.com/</a> , which will optimize all images in a folder. Thanks, Nick Ismael on "Related Entries pulls same portfolio items" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-pulls-same-portfolio-items#post-108276 Wed, 01 May 2013 20:51:48 +0000 Ismael 108276@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hey, Glad it worked. :) Regards, Ismael andreanapier1985 on "Related Entries pulls same portfolio items" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-pulls-same-portfolio-items#post-108267 Wed, 01 May 2013 20:17:54 +0000 andreanapier1985 108267@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ BTW, this works great! Nick on "Related Entries pulls same portfolio items" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-pulls-same-portfolio-items#post-107536 Sat, 27 Apr 2013 10:24:09 +0000 Nick 107536@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, For the Blog posts, relations are defined by tags: if post tags match, the post will be displayed as related. For portfolio items, it is based on categories. This is the query used on line 52 of related-posts.php <pre><code>$my_query = new WP_Query(array('portfolio_entries'=>$tag_ids, 'showposts'=>$postcount, 'ignore_sticky_posts'=>1, 'orderby'=>'rand', 'post__not_in' => array( $this_id ) ) );</code></pre> Please try adding this code to line 51 <pre><code>remove_all_filters('posts_orderby');</code></pre> and see if some different sequences start showing up. Adding more categories won't do much since it selects them always in the same order, alphabetically probably. You can take a look at what's available and what is done <a href="http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=related" rel="nofollow">http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=related</a> Thanks, Niick andreanapier1985 on "Related Entries pulls same portfolio items" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-pulls-same-portfolio-items#post-107289 Thu, 25 Apr 2013 21:50:21 +0000 andreanapier1985 107289@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ In the related entries section on the bottom of the portfolio page it pulls the same four entries in every category. It keeps potential clients in this perpetual loop of the same four or five entries. Is there any way to diversify which items are chosen as a related entry? If I added more categories or tags would it choose a different group of related entries? <a href="http://christinamrozik.com/" rel="nofollow">http://christinamrozik.com/</a> Nick on "Use only grayscale thumbnails throughout Choices theme?" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-only-grayscale-thumbnails-throughout-choices-theme#post-105489 Sun, 14 Apr 2013 05:44:55 +0000 Nick 105489@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, Can you try uploading a brand new image just to test because sometimes low wordpress memory prevents the regeneration from taking place though nothing is shown to make the user aware that it didn't work. Also are you using the latest version of the theme since for me using version 1.7 , , its line 79 that has the slider_thumb image size defines in functions.php Do you have a url where I may look, you can mask it with <a href="http://www.goo.gl" rel="nofollow">http://www.goo.gl</a> Thanks, Nick dishdesigner on "Use only grayscale thumbnails throughout Choices theme?" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-only-grayscale-thumbnails-throughout-choices-theme#post-105340 Fri, 12 Apr 2013 21:06:09 +0000 dishdesigner 105340@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi Nick: Sorry the delay, but I just got around to trying this again. It did not work. I added the "copy=>greyscale" to all the other available listed images in functions.php near line 65, and then used the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin to regenerate the whole database of images..... It's the "Related Entries" thumbnails when you're viewing any given Portfolio Item entry page that remain in color....those are the ones I'd like to convert to black-and-white (until a rollover, when they turn to color by default everywhere else).... Any other ideas? Thanks! Nick on "Use only grayscale thumbnails throughout Choices theme?" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-only-grayscale-thumbnails-throughout-choices-theme#post-101925 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 20:11:02 +0000 Nick 101925@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, Try adding 'copy'=>'greyscale' to additional image definitions in functions.php. Just be aware that you will need to reupload the images in order to generate the greyscale. You can try regenerating the images, but if there aren't too many of them , it would be better to just reupload them Thanks, Nick dishdesigner on "Use only grayscale thumbnails throughout Choices theme?" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/use-only-grayscale-thumbnails-throughout-choices-theme#post-101765 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 08:30:54 +0000 dishdesigner 101765@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi Kriei tech support: I'm trying to force all site thumbnails using the Choices theme to ONLY display grayscale thumbnails in all areas of the site. Is there a central place to edit that would make that easy?....(it looks like functions.php starting on line 65 may be the target?....several lines have 'copy'=>'greyscale' after their sizing information in the array...) For example, my client loves the grayscale thumbnails that appear in the portfolio areas. But, then the same thumbnail grid in "Related Entries" that appears under each portfolio entry uses color thumbnails and I would prefer that they not compete with the big portfolio images of the current project above them....

Please open up /includes/related-portfolio-posts.php First take a look how you like this look, I wasn't even aware of this capability of showing the related posts as a slider so that the page doesn't become too busy <a href="http://www.clipular.com/c?2554070=M1n2kuu8lTUqB4jZKWVLV6vppOM" rel="nofollow">http://www.clipular.com/c?2554070=M1n2kuu8lTUqB4jZKWVLV6vppOM</a> a) Please change line 13 which looks like <pre><code>$postcount = ($columns * 1);</code></pre> to look like <pre><code>$postcount = ($columns * 3);</code></pre> Thanks, Nick mbesh on "Angular - Portfolio Item's "Related Entries"" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/angular-portfolio-items-related-entries#post-100282 Fri, 08 Mar 2013 21:34:13 +0000 mbesh 100282@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Nick, The number of the "portfolio items" in the dynamic template 'controls' the number displayed on this page: <a href="http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/print-production/" rel="nofollow">http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/print-production/</a> We want to have all of these 'items' (less the one displayed---which would be 10, in this instance) displayed below the item picture listed under the "Related Entries" title (which is only showing 4 of then possible 10 available): <a href="http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/example/print-books/" rel="nofollow">http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/example/print-books/</a> [ Note: Tried the "All" in the dynamic template for the number of portfolio items to be displayed, and it didn't change the number of items shown under the "related Entries" title]. Mark Nick on "Angular - Portfolio Item's "Related Entries"" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/angular-portfolio-items-related-entries#post-99958 Thu, 07 Mar 2013 02:28:05 +0000 Nick 99958@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Hi, You mean you want order all related entries from 1 to last ? You can try increasing the number of total items shown. There is a setting for portfolio in the custom templates that lets you select the total number of portfolio items shown. One of the options is 'Áll', please try that. Thanks, Nick mbesh on "Angular - Portfolio Item's "Related Entries"" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/angular-portfolio-items-related-entries#post-99799 Wed, 06 Mar 2013 13:30:12 +0000 mbesh 99799@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ For a portfolio item, is it possible to display ALL of the "Related Entries" below, rather than just 4 of them (in my example). Example Portfolio Item: <a href="http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/example/books/" rel="nofollow">http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/example/books/</a> The "landing page" it comes from (has 11 'items'): <a href="http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/print-production/" rel="nofollow">http://visualimpact.wpengine.com/print-production/</a> I would like to have the remaining 10 "Related Entries" displayed (in this instance). [There are other 'items' that may have more, as we continue to develop the site]. ThanX, Mark ftrasi on "Related entries doesn't show title post" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-doesnt-show-title-post#post-94616 Sat, 02 Feb 2013 02:17:12 +0000 ftrasi 94616@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Thank you, I made a new post and this shows the related entries with its titles. Devin on "Related entries doesn't show title post" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-doesnt-show-title-post#post-93410 Fri, 25 Jan 2013 15:02:41 +0000 Devin 93410@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I'm only getting one single post to not display the titles but I think there may be something wrong with that posts entry in the database. The permalink is the first line of the post instead of the title and it might have gotten slightly corrupted. Try making new posts and if any of those don't have the titles after the change then it would be an issue but I don't see how it could be possible since there is only the one file to display the output.

But the titles show in some posts, not in another ones. That's why I ask you: is the post-type the reason? Why we view Related-Entries titles in the second post but not in the first one?

You can try to change the "Slideshow behavior on overview pages" option. (Flagship > Theme Options > Layout & Settings). Maybe the "Display default slideshow on overview pages and on single entries" setting will help you. MichaelStults on "Related Entries Thumbnail Image" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-thumbnail-image#post-90450 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 23:10:07 +0000 MichaelStults 90450@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ I think I may understand now. So if I want a thumbnail for the related entries, it will always show the full image above each post which in return would have the thumbnail and all the other sizes it auto makes once the picture is uploaded? Would that be correct? Thanks! Mike MichaelStults on "Related Entries Thumbnail Image" http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/related-entries-thumbnail-image#post-90417 Mon, 07 Jan 2013 18:19:13 +0000 MichaelStults 90417@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ Devin, Appreciate your time in responding! When I add an image to that area, my understanding that is for the slideshow in the header area. <a href="http://bit.ly/109gVTI" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/109gVTI</a> How do I tell it to only use an image for the "thumbnail" image for the "related entries" boxes at the bottom of the posts?
