Few Questions

    Hello,

    The theme is awesome, thanks for that !

    I have a few troubles though, I’m not very experienced in all of this so it might be stupid questions. Anyway.

    -I was able to replace the title font with a picture by working in the header.php file in the Theme Editor. It works fine but I’d also like to delete the tagline area entirely so there is no white space/header under the title picture, and get the menu bar closer to the title picture as well…any idea ?

    -In my portfolio, when I try to place a picture (by uploading one in featured image and checking the lightbox image type), if I click on it, it brings me to a new page with the full picture, which is fine, but in the demo version it’s a pop-up that appears, how can I have that as well ?

    -Finally, is there a way not to have comments on the portfolio page ? I uncheck the box when I’m publishing something but there is still the possibility to leave a reply on the page.

    Thanks a lot for taking the time to answer!

    Denis.

    1-)

    – try the image logo uploader: Theme Options > General > Logo,
    – if you want to hide the tagline, paste the code below to the Theme Options > Style > Custom CSS box:

    .site-description { display: none; }
    

    2-)

    – use the [lightbox_image] shortcode for lightbox image type portfolio item to see a pop-up, like this:

    [lightbox_image first_image="yes" title="Animal with love" url="http://themes.pixelwars.org/read-wp/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/lightbox-01.jpg"]
    

    3-)

    – go to Pages and click Quick Edit link of your portfolio page,
    – uncheck Allow Comments.

    Ah new thing : Is there a way to get rid of the pages names on the page itself ?
    Like this : http://uppix.net/3/d/5/f54ea230e4faaf81f69fb062949fe.jpg ?

    And also, I don’t know if it’s possible but is there a way to center the contact page ?

    Hi, to hide page titles and center the contact page try this custom css;

    .page .entry-header { display: none; }
    .contact-form, .contact-form input, .contact-form textarea, .page-template-page-contact-php .hentry p { text-align: center; }
    .contact-form label.error { left: 33%; }
    .contact-form .ajax-loader { margin: 1.5em auto 0 auto; }
    .page-template-page-contact-php .hentry { padding-top: 0; }

    Me again…

    How can I do to make an image open in a popup instead of opening in another window ?
    Also, I guess that the lightbox images are not working on pages other than gallery and portfolio ?

    Thanks !

    Because I’d like to have several galleries, I’m not sure I can do that so a solution for me would be to be able to put images lightbox in a standard page. But that doesn’t seem to work unfortunately..

    Hi,

    1-) We will add lightbox shortcode in the next update, thanks for the feedback.

    2-) Also if you want multiple galleries, you can do this now by;

    – Using built in Gallery post type. Add a new gallery post to create a gallery, then you can add many images inside this gallery post by using “”Images” box. You can repeat this for each gallery.

    Hello again !

    When I try to create a page and put portfolio as a parent (to have a link like …/portfolio/page) it shows a 404 page. When I do the same with any other page it works fine. Any idea ?

    Thanks.

    ( …/portfolio/sub-url )

    Because the sub-url of the link is only for portfolio items. Don’t put portfolio page as a parent of any page. If you want to make a second level menu item with a page under portfolio create a custom menu. ( Documentation > Menu )

    Hi!
    I, too, have a few questions:

    1. Old-New
    I have created a new category as a page but would like the oldest posts to show first, the newest last. Also I would like to be able to add a description. How can I do that?

    2. Second Line for Pages
    Is it possible to create a second line of page titles with maybe a lighter colour?
    Or a second line of links underneath the page titles? I would like to link to social media accounts (such as Fb, Twitter, Instagram & Co)

    3. Highlighting Links Bold
    I would like to highlight links not in a different colour but bold. Is that possible?

    Thank you very much in advance!

    Hi, I’ve found a personal solution for #2! However I’d still be interested in your solution.
    Also, another question I have: Is it possible to create more space b/w the “related posts” widget and the post? It is too close as you can see here: http://ein-fremdwoerterbuch.com/2013/11/nemrut/

    Thank you!

    Can you provide your link for #1?

    Hi @kuebra

    you can use this custom css to give more space to your related post widget;

    ul.related_post {
        margin: 3em 0 2em 0 !important;
    }
    

    – and about your question #3 : which links / links on where ?

    Mehmet S.
    Keymaster

    For #1:

    – This is not possible by default, needs more further customization, you may consider working with a professional.

    @Mehmet Sali: Well, it is a category page and wordpress gives the option to add a description, but they also say below (in grey) that it depends on the theme, but usually it is a function that is quite basic. Here you can see it (in German though):
    http://ein-fremdwoerterbuch.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/01/Bildschirmfoto-2014-01-27-um-14.40.47.png
    Maybe that helps? As I understand it, it’s not something very advanced but a basic function. Thank you!

    @Ahmet Sali: Thank you so much for that! Worked perfectly :)

    Ok, I understand now. Where would you like to add the category description?

    Thank you, Mehmet! :) To the top would be perfect!

    – go to Appearance > Editor > cat-nosidebar.php

    – find:

    </header>
    <!-- end .page-header -->
    

    – edit:

    <?php echo category_description(); ?></header>
    <!-- end .page-header -->

    I was wondering if you have any idea how to solve question 3?

    Mehmet S.
    Keymaster

    Try this custom css:

    .entry-content a { color: #333; font-weight: bold; }

    I’m so sorry, my constant questions might be annoying by now :)
    I was wondering to show all posts in a category in masonry style?
    http://themes.pixelwars.org/read-wp/?blog_type=masonry

    So e.g. can I show all entries in the category “50 thoughts” http://ein-fremdwoerterbuch.com/category/50-thoughts/ in masonry style?

    Thank you! And I promise I’ll try not to ask too many questions any more :)

    Best!

    this is not easy to do with some lines of code. If you are not familiar with wordpress coding you may consider working with a professional for further customizations.
