Dear 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.
Sincerely,
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.
Best,
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!
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioDear Eashford,
first of all, thank you for the purchase!
Could you please provide the URL of the page in question, as well as tell me which IE version you are using (“Tools -> About Internet Explorer”), and I will debug the issue.
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioSorry about that, Denis!
When inserting the slider code into the category template, I chose the wrong line so it swapped with the menu. Now it should be fine!
Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori StudioDear Denis,
The button on the screenshot looks like it is a part of a third-party plugin, and not the theme; plugins usually have their own stylesheets included, which is why it is very difficult to style every single one of them from inside the theme, so themes are responsible only for styling their own files. However, if you provide the URL of the page with the said button, I can help you style the text – I just need to see the live code.
As for the image slider – it does not show up on category pages because it is not meant to by design of the theme :) However, by including one line of code into the “category.php” template file it is possible to make the header appear on category pages as well – I’ve done that for you, check out the page in question!
Hey Janusdesign!
First of all, thank you for the purchase!
This issue has not been reported before. From the error code it looks like the theme did not install correctly – could you please try deleting it and installing anew? If this does not help, I will need to ask you for admin credentials so that I could take a look at the back-end. You can send those to support@satoristudio.net (no disclosure guaranteed of course).Sincerely,
Andrew | Satori Studio
