Hey Jimmy,
first of all, thank you for the purchase!
Please try adding this piece of CSS: .home #main-body #content { margin-top: 0 !important; padding-top: 0 !important; }
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioHey Chag,
first of all, thank you for the purchase!
I’ve run a couple of tests using Pingdom and it looks like your website (test) is getting a higher speed score than the Fuji demo (test). It does take longer to load, though, mainly because of four files which you can see as long yellow bars on the diagram below the scores. 4 seconds is usually considered a normal loading speed for a page with multiple images, yet in case you want to try to increase it further the places to look are:
– check the Minify plugin you likely have installed, it is one of the problem zones; try disabling it and re-running the test.
– if you’re not using the image slider on your website, you can get rid of the “orbt-1.2.3.css” file altogether – by going to “Appearance -> Editor” admin menu, opening the “header.php” file on the right, locating (Ctrl+F) the line which contains the full name of this file and deleting it (do not forget to press “Update File” to save the changes).
– you can also get rid of the fancybox function (the one that creates overlays if you click on one of the post images) – by downloading this custom file from my repository, unzipping it, and uploading the contained file into the theme folder via ftp (/wp-content/themes/Fuji).
– there’s not much we can do about lessframework.css, since it contains important style declarations which among other things make the website adapt to the screen size of smaller viewing devices like tablets and smartphones.I hope this was helpful!
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioGlad it works, thanks for the detailed follow-up!
Should anything else pop up, do not hesitate to contact me.

Andrew | Satori StudioHey Léo,
First of all, thank you for the purchase!
The code seems fine from the outside (i.e. the rendered HTML/CSS), and the latest post (the one about Google Glasses) does contain a featured image, yet the slider does not display the image for that one. This hasn’t been reported before, thus I will need to ask you for login details so that I can look at the php and the back-end. You can send login credentials to support@satoristudio.net (no disclosure guaranteed).
Regarding the categories on the right – could you please clarify, as I do not see any errors on my machine. Thank you!

Looking at the error message, it seems that the source of the error might be your hosting provider’s settings (see e.g. this post on the WordPress.org website). Please let me know how the reinstall goes!
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioDear Denis,
the custom header (including the slider) and the middle menu are inserted into pages using separate template files for higher flexibility. This is how the code of the top of the template file should look in order to display both the menu and the slider (note the highlighted rectangle). This is exactly what I’ve done with your “category.php” template file in order to display the slider on category pages.

Andrew | Satori StudioDear Thomas,
The social icons widget is called “Social Media Widget” and is available in “Appearance -> Widgets” along with the other ones :)
The way I arranged backgrounds in the demo is as follows: declare a static page as the front page (in “Settings -> Reading”), choose the “Page – Background Slider” template for that page (in the “Page Attributes” box in the editor mode), and choosing “WP Media Gallery” as the source of background slides in the “Background Slider” box just below the text editor area in the page editor mode. Then if you upload images to that page as attachments (without actually inserting them into the page), they will show up as the background slides. Other pages use a static image for the background, which can be set in “Appearance -> Background Slider” menu: first create a separate folder for the background image in your “wp-content” folder, upload the desired background image into it, and then go to the “Slides Source” tab in “Appearance -> Background Slider” and choose the folder you’ve just created in the “Default Slides Gallery” option.
If I was unclear at any point, please let me know!
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioHey Thomas,
first of all, thank you for the purchase!
Regarding the logo – I agree that it’s not my best idea to have set fixed dimensions for the logo are – I’ll implement a jQuery script in the next version update that’ll resize the box automatically depending on the image size. But before that happens, you can also change the dimensions of the logo box to whichever you need by adding a line of code to the theme’s “style.css” file (opens by default in “Appearance -> Editor” admin menu):
#logo-wrap #logo a { width: 116px !important; height: 120px !important; }
#logo-wrap #logo { height: auto !important; }
The pixel height and width of the first declaration can be changed arbitrarily.The background slider images should be as large as possible, but I really recommend keeping them in a jpg format, preferably compressed, so that each image is not larger than 600-700 kilobytes in size – otherwise the page will take ages to fully load, which will in turn frustrate the visitors. Please also note that the recommended height for the images is at least 1100 pixels – if you take less, the images will either be deformed vertically or leave empty space at the bottom on larger screens (keep in mind that your website will be opened on a wide variety of devices and screen sizes). Finally, if you haven’t yet, please check out the “Size and position” tab in the “Appearance -> Background Slider” admin menu – it has several useful settings regarding the background image resizing and cropping.

Andrew | Satori StudioHey Khan20,
Thank you for expressing interest in the item!
To answer your questions:
1). To move the logo box further to the left, you’ll need to add a line of code to the theme’s “style.css” file (opens by default in “Appearance -> Editor” admin menu) since such option is not included directly into the Theme Options back-end:
#logo-wrap, #nav-secondary { left: -128px !important; }
Any negative number below -128 (e.g. -200, -300 etc) would move the box (and the menu) to the left.2). Again, you’ll need to add a snippet to “style.css”:
#logo-wrap #logo a { width: 116px !important; height: 120px !important; }
#logo-wrap #logo { height: auto !important; }
The pixel height and width of the first declaration can be changed arbitrarily.3). One of my main principles when building themes is full colour customization from the admin back-end – you can set any color for any element of the page, including the ones you mention, from the Theme Options panel.
It is worth adding that I also provide support and help with theme set-up and customization here on the forums – and as long as the tasks are not concerned with large-scale customization not envisaged by the theme, it is free of charge for all buyers.
Should you have more questions, do not hesitate to ask!
