Hi again.
I have a few issues to post (been waiting for this new forum) I am starting by the easy ones ( I guess).

In the site I am working on, http://pt.liveningonline.com, I wanted to set up the font for the accordion
.heading_clone, .sliderheading {font-weight:bold}.

However, if I do this, the ie version looks very bad due to the inline css, filter:alpha (opacity).
I've been trying a workaround for it (a few hours already and I quit. The only solution I got was to use a strong font (as you can see there: Arial Black. However, I would prefer to have the original font as bold. Do you have a solution at hand?

BR,
D.

It seems you are not running the latest version of the theme, at least thats what your css file states ;)
I ve uploaded a fix for the ie opacity problem a while back, you might want to update the theme to the latest version to get it applied ;)

Hi. Great.
I want to try that.
I have done some changes in a few files. Mainly, Translation. Is there a way to update the theme without
Do you happen to know which files you changed in the theme update?

Hi.
I created this site for testing: http://pt-test.liveningonline.com
I updated the files that the release pdf mentioned (all from version 1.22 to 2, 2 jumps).
I also updated the css files for the theme options from the css folder.
Still, the slider resolves pretty bad in ie8 standard mode.
Would you please tak a look at it? and tell me if I need to do anything else. In firefox, it goes ok.
Thanks.
Dinis

PS
To upgrade, I just copied the files mentioned in the release pdf. Is it all I need to do?

I wil have a look at it but I am not sure why it doesnt work for you (currently cant check it since my mac harddrive crashed and I don't have Internet explorer available)

It should definitley be ok with the latest version...

Hi.
I uploaded a screenshot of it: http://pt-test.liveningonline.com/dump/boldfontresolvesbadly.JPG
The site is http://pt-test.liveningonline.com.
If you turn the font-wheight into "bold" it gets bad-looking - I guess it has to do with the alpha filter in ie(7 or 8).

I have the latest version. From the files I updated:
index.php
search.php
archive.php
style.css
js folder
framework folder
theme-options folder

should I have updated any other folder / file?

thanks in advance for your help

Personally I would update every file from the latest theme download. Framework files shouldn't need changing (in terms of language) but additional functionality / bug fixes may be present which will affect the theme files and presentation.

The safest way to modify a theme is to use a child theme. For more information, check out the Child Themes page in the Codex.

ok. I'll try the child theme approach. But, once I am just landing on this WP world, it might take a bit.
Meahwhile, just for peace of mind, could you pls. try a custom css with
.heading_clone {
font-weight:bold;
}
and see how it looks on ie7/8?

Hi again.
I checked for you. This is what you get in ie7/8 if you do so in your Themeforest demo:

The Bold Font would be a nice feature. I have been trying hard to solve it but no luck. If you happen to solve it, well - I would be quite thankfull.

Hey!

This issue would most likely require an update to the theme to fix. I've marked this for Kriesi's attention.

Regards,
James

Great. Once this not a major fault, I'll put this as solved and hope for Kriesi to have time to do something about it.
