   First of all, fantastic theme - I've used a number of your themes and they are all, without exception, amazing... I love 'em and so do my clients!!!

   My most recent purchase is the BroadScope theme which I'm using for a client who needs some basic digital download shop functionality. As they don't need the Portfolio section for it's traditional purpose I thought I'd use it for the shop, as the category selector down the lefthand side is perfect for it.

   Couple of questions:

   1) Is it possible for me to remove the date and comments on the lefthand side when viewing a portfolio post? Ideally I'd like them to look like pages almost.

   2) I'd like to be able to change the link from /portfolio to /shop - where will I need to make these adjustments?

   That's all for now... any help would be greatly appreciated (and I'll undoubtedly be buying more Kriesi themes!!! :) )

   Hey,

   Nice idea to use the Portfolio as a Shop.

   You'd need to modify the includes/loop-index.php file to use conditional tags around this code:

   <span class='post-date-comment-container'>
   					<span class='date-container'><?php the_time('d') ?><strong><?php the_time('M') ?></strong><?php the_time('Y') ?></span>
   					<span class='comment-container'><?php comments_popup_link("<strong>0</strong> ".__('Comments','avia_framework'), "<strong>1</strong> ".__('Comment' ,'avia_framework'),
   																			  "<strong>%</strong> ".__('Comments','avia_framework'),'comments-link',
   																			  "<strong></strong> ".__('Comments<br/>Off','avia_framework')
   																			  ); ?>
   					</span>
   
   				</span>

   in order to remove it from single portfolio pages. This won't automatically correct the alignment (i.e. the left column where the date / coment count currently appear) and some careful tweaking of the stylesheet (taking advantage of the single-portfolio body class added to single portfolio pages) would be required to fix this.
