This is rather overwhelming since I'm learning basic coding, WP and the theme all at once, and it's only been 3 weeks. I will make future posts next time for new topics and then close them as resolved.</p> <p>Can I suggest that in future updates the text and portfolio items have more customization? (so that the description alone can be place under the image?)</p> <p>so if I understand correctly, if x person has an RSS feed program installed or configured, as soon as they would press my RSS feed icon on my webpage, they could follow me? So I only had the error because I don't have an RSS feed installed on my computer?</p> <p>I'm in the process of re-uploading the framework folder and I checked my website again, seems to be running better but there are still a few photos that are a bit odd and not working well in the thumbnail unhover/hover </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template/page/2#post-43246 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 21:21:56 +0000 Devin 43246@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Jessipoo,</p> <p>In regards to updating, I wouldn't suggest just updating some of the files based on modified dates. Sometimes the theme folders are changed (structure, where files are located etc) as well so then when we look to see if the version number is correct in the CSS, we might not be able to actually diagnose a problem.</p> <p>As long as your modifications to the theme are in the Quick CSS or the custom.css, completely overwriting the theme folder won't cause any changes in your site. If you make changes to the core files you will need to look over the version log to see if any changes were done to those pages that will cause a conflict. If so, you will need to re-add those changes to the php, css or js files.</p> <p>You can always look at the version.rtf located in the zip file you download from themeforest. Kriesi puts notes on which version you just downloaded and the various changes for each version.</p> <p>Re: Interesting links - Just add any widget to the Footer - column 1 widget area in your Widgets admin. The default footer text/information is only there until you replace it with your own widgets.</p> <p>Re: Text under portfolio - I don't know of an non-complicated way to move the text below the image for the portfolio inline view. Its a bit out of the scope support can do.</p> <p>Re: RSS Feed - That is your wordpress RSS feed. You can use a service like feedburner to allow easy subscription to your content: See <a href="http://support.google.com/feedburner/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=79408" rel="nofollow">http://support.google.com/feedburner/bin/answer.py?hl=en&amp;answer=79408</a></p> <p>You can disable it from being viewed by adding the following to your Quick CSS or custom.css file:<br /> <pre><code>.social_bookmarks .rss{ display:none; }</code></pre> <p>I'm not sure what you mean about the portfolio images. </p> <p>Please make future questions in a new thread, its very difficult to keep track of questions in older posts that span pages. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template/page/2#post-43245 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 21:19:08 +0000 jessipoo 43245@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I've been searching on the forums for hours. I solved the RSS problem (by hiding the icon). I figured how to change the "besides are some interesting links"</p> <p>1)I've seen solutions with quickCSS to put all the text on the bottom of the photo (when you select a portfolio item), however, I want to keep the TITLE on top, the META to the sides and have my description ONLY on the bottom, without column restriction.HOw do I this?</p> <p>2) Still having issues with the resizing of thumbnail images... please see <a href="http://jessicama.co.cc/" rel="nofollow">http://jessicama.co.cc/</a></p> <p>Please help me solve these 2 problems. Thank you very much. (I'd like to point out this only happened AFTER the update) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template/page/2#post-43204 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 17:45:01 +0000 jessipoo 43204@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>How do I change the footer content of "besides are some interesting links". I know where I can change the number of columns but the footer.php file affects the footer of the entire webpage which is the "copyright" stuff.</p> <p>The portfolio grayscaled items are displaying in full size within the portfolio "square". When I hover my mouse it resizes properly and goes in color. I've regenerated all the thumbnails but it's still not working...<br /> the plugin in says:</p> <p>Total Images: 20<br /> Images Resized: 0<br /> Resize Failures: 20</p> <p>then 20X<br /> function (){if(c){var a=c.length;m(arguments),i?k=c.length:e&amp;&amp;e!==!0&amp;&amp;(j=a,n(e[0],e[1]))}return this} </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template/page/2#post-43201 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 17:32:18 +0000 jessipoo 43201@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>The RSS feed next to my linkedin button is there by default. When I click it, it sends me to a page with codes and with the following title: This "XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below."</p> <p>Can I fix this or delete the RSS icon somehow? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template/page/2#post-43188 Thu, 23 Feb 2012 16:30:30 +0000 jessipoo 43188@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I'm re-downloaded the template and it seems to be the correct one. I'm going into each folder and seeing which files have been modified at a later date and uploading them to their respective places. Unless I didn't see it, I would suggest having versions somewhere in the theme or name of the theme zip file so we know which is newer.</p> <p>As per my previous unanswered question, is there a way for the description to appear UNDER the photos and not next to them? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-43013 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:58:53 +0000 Devin 43013@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Jessipoo,</p> <p>My mistake! Version 1.1.1. was released and is available on themeforest for download. Editing the original post so their isn't any confusion.</p> <p>Changelog:</p> <p>Version 1.1.1<br /> Added a linkedin social media button at the top right media bar<br /> further improved javascript performance<br /> fixed some css bugs<br /> fixed a bug with the email autoresponder </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-43009 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:35:17 +0000 jessipoo 43009@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Devin, is there a way for the description to appear UNDER the photos and not next to them? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-43008 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:34:39 +0000 jessipoo 43008@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Will the update be free?<br /> What other improvements can we expect to see?<br /> Any ideas on a release date? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-43006 Wed, 22 Feb 2012 19:32:26 +0000 Devin 43006@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey Jessipoo,</p> <p>To add that "read more" link to your portfolio posts you can use the "Insert More Tag" in the visual editor. Its next to the buttons that add links to text. You can also use the keyboard shortcut of Alt+Shift+T while your typing your text to insert it.</p> <p>The linkedin icon option *has been added as of version 1.1.1 </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42578 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 17:58:35 +0000 jessipoo 42578@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Also, is there any way to add a linkedin link instead of Facebook and Twitter? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42566 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 15:49:52 +0000 jessipoo 42566@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Alright thank you, that helped.</p> <p>I was wondering, in the portfolio description box, is there a way for it to automatically have the "read more" link? My text surpasses my photo and it looks a bit odd. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42505 Mon, 20 Feb 2012 06:56:38 +0000 Dude 42505@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>See <a href="http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/-x-buttons-editing-navigation-controls-to-be-more-descriptive" rel="nofollow">http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/-x-buttons-editing-navigation-controls-to-be-more-descriptive</a> </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42474 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 19:11:45 +0000 jessipoo 42474@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Found it in appearance&gt;menus. </p> <p>That's odd... last time I tried doing this (before importing the dummy data) I didn't have to go through that, the page would automatically appear as a link. Nvm.</p> <p>I was wondering if I could change the +/- in the tabs of the selected portfolio item (I've tried changing both "-" &amp; "+" in \wordpress\themes (paid)\angular-responsive-portfolio\anuglar\js\projekktor.min.js file on the server; line 14) </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42443 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 08:37:38 +0000 Dude 42443@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>You can use the menu manager (Appearance &gt; Menus) to build your own custom menu. Just add the new pages to a menu and assign this menu to a theme location (dropdown option on the left side next to the menu builder). You can add some options by clicking on the "Screen Options" tab at the top - then de/select the required option fields. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42416 Sun, 19 Feb 2012 02:05:28 +0000 jessipoo 42416@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>As suggested, I imported the data dummy stuff.<br /> It's working and I'm happy. That was such an easy suggestion and with some modifications, I was able to make it my own. Thank you.</p> <p>My issue now is that I added some pages (and deleted some) I publish it and it's showing at the footer but not at the top. I feel so noob and I looked everything to see if I'm missing something but it seems I am not.. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42287 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 22:44:26 +0000 Devin 42287@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>A lot of those can be done in the Styling section of the Angular admin menu. The options are a bit limited to help the colors/choices coordinate across the entire site. </p> <p>If you want to modify specific elements (like ONLY portoflio headers) you will need to add specific style into Quick CSS or the Custom.css stylesheet. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42255 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 18:40:51 +0000 jessipoo 42255@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thanks Devin, I will try importing the dummy data and then changing everything from there. Hopefully that will fix.. all of my issues. I'm already somewhat familiarized with it since I have been playing around with it trying to figure out how to make it work.</p> <p>If I were to change the background color or photo, how could I change the color and font type of all the other text (like the meta information and the excerpt?) it seems when you choose a font it only applies it to certain things like the titles. Do I have to change them individually in the text box when I write up text for the individual portfolio items? if so, what about the footer, the meta information (or whatever you call it that's right next to the photo for short additional information)</p> <p>sorry if I'm using the wrong terms. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42119 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 05:32:36 +0000 Devin 42119@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi Jessipoo,</p> <p>The quote from the wordpress is referring to the admin side of things. You can turn on and off certain options while viewing and editing pages/posts.</p> <p>After reading the exchange before, let me try and answer a few of your questions.</p> <p>Concerning the Read More, when creating your text on the portfolio items, you should use the Insert More line break. Its in the top row of menu icons on the editor window. You can also just press Alt+Shift+T to insert it while you are typing. </p> <p>I STRONGLY recommend if you want to see how to make your site look like the sample site Kriesi has displaying his theme you make use of the "Import dummy data" button/feature in the Angular theme options. It will populate the entire wordpress installation with all the same photos, images, portfolio posts and pages (with accompanied settings and templates). As web developer myself, this is what I do every single time I work with a new theme and the option is available. You can delete the pages/posts/images you don't want but you get to see how everything is set up on the backend.</p> <p>This brings me to the front page portfolio display issues (no + or -). On the demo site, kriesi is using a Template Builder template called Frontpage. If you use the Import dummy data option, this template gets created for you. If you do not, the template consists of the following elements:</p> <p>A Text Area/Callout/Quotes<br /> Portfolio<br /> Horizontal Ruler<br /> Heading+Subtitle<br /> Logo/Partner List<br /> Horizontal Ruler</p> <p>In the portfolio element, you will need to make sure the Portfolio Single Entries option is set on Show on current page to display portfolio items within the home page.</p> <p>I hope this helps :) </p> <p>Devin </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42112 Fri, 17 Feb 2012 03:07:17 +0000 ishbel52 42112@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>HI<br /> Just to add where / how do I get this functionality. WPress version 3.3.1 and the theme 1.1.1 - asked the person who installed these themes and she had no idea what i was talking about so I had no luck there - and where do I find the shortcodes for the toggles etc - I have looked through the editor page? thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42099 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 22:40:49 +0000 ishbel52 42099@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>HI </p> <p>thanks for the image - yes I see why as I do not get that feature? <a href="http://www.3ecointeriors.co.nz" rel="nofollow">http://www.3ecointeriors.co.nz</a> - I see only part of that functionality</p> <p>thanks </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42084 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 19:00:56 +0000 jessipoo 42084@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>also, how do you change the font for the excerpt and the meta info to the right of the photo?</p> <p>Is there a way to install new fonts on wordpress? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42080 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 18:46:28 +0000 jessipoo 42080@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>I found this on the wordpress support page: Note: As of WordPress version 3.1, some screen options on the Post &amp; Page edit Administration Panels are hidden by default. The Excerpt field is hidden by default if it has not been used before.</p> <p>How do I make the excerpt visible? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42078 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 18:43:42 +0000 jessipoo 42078@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Thank you for the link for the portfolio item order, that will definitely help me. </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-42074 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 18:35:28 +0000 jessipoo 42074@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Don't get me wrong Chris. I love the template, the lack of support however is a little disconcerting, and I was patient and polite before I got upset, with good reason.</p> <p>The fact that my last questions posted (in another post probably 2 weeks ago) went unanswered.. is alarming and I felt dismissed since other posts were being answered. So how do you think I am suppose to feel about the situation? The login page says that questions are answered in a day or so. It has been a week that my questions went unanswered.</p> <p>I'm glad you guys are seeing a lot of success in your other templates, but don't forget existing (as potential future clients) clients who need help to make this template work and actually use it to its full potential (that is still advertisement for you guys). My post shouldn't be taken so negatively but I was running out of options and I haven't posted any reviews yet, I'm not that rash. Hopefully this is a wake up call to try and get your support fully running before taking on more projects and taking on more than you guys can handle. Customer service is important.</p> <p>My website is jessicama.co.cc and I still have issues with the excerpt</p> <p>The only 2 plugins I had activated were: Image Upload HTTP Error Fix and Third Party Host Fix because I was having uploading difficulties. I disabled them and the excerpt is still missing. </p> <p>I wrote things in the excerpt box for each portfolio item and I don't see anything there. I actually wrote text in the "regular" description box and now I see text on the right of my photo. That doesn't seem to make sense since there IS an excerpt box (but the contents of those are not appearing)<br /> Are there other settings I am suppose to have set up before?</p> <p>Why isn't the "x" on a selected portfolio item showing up so it can go back to portfolio grid selection? </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-41978 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 07:06:37 +0000 Chris Beard 41978@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hey! </p> <p> I created an image for you:<br /> <img src="http://i42.tinypic.com/jtqe1g.jpg"> </p> <p>When using shortcodes outside posts you have to use the <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/do_shortcode">do_shortcode function</a> in the php.</p> <p> Best regards,<br /> Chris </p> http://www.kriesi.at/support/topic/couple-of-questions-about-the-template#post-41975 Thu, 16 Feb 2012 06:52:33 +0000 ishbel52 41975@http://www.kriesi.at/support/ <p>Hi chris<br /> not trying to review negatively but having spent hours reading through the user documentation and watching the videos [all appreciated] can you please advise where I can find the majic wand.
