When you say “make sure your theme files are writeable” does that mean change the Phrase folder, in its entirety to 666? I went into wp-content/themes/ (where all theme folders are 755), and the index file in wp-content is 644.
ReplyDeleteThe wp-content/wp-phrase/css folder is currently 755 , but all the indivdual files in that folder are 644.
Are these the files that need to be changed? and to what numbers please?
Hi,
ReplyDeleteMaybe this helps you – http://codex.wordpress.org/Changing_File_Permissions#Permission_Scheme_for_WordPress
Yes, I saw that link. No. it doesn’t help really. It says this:Additional directories under /wp-content/ should be documented by whatever plugin / theme requires them. Permissions will vary.
ReplyDeleteIs there a reason you don’t want to be specific about what files need what permissions? I’ve installed probably 30 wordpress themes on this (hostgator) server. I’ve never had these issues, until this theme.
During the initial install, wp showed a bunch of code, rather than “install succeeded” but I followed the steps in your help file, with the warnings about “options reset.” obviously it was warning there was a problem with the file.
If I can’t get a helpful answer from you, I’ll try re-installing. If I still have problems, I guess I’ll move on to another theme, and write off that purchase price. Obviously this is a problem with the theme, several other people have asked for help with this, and received only vague answers.
By default, for 99% customers no need to worries about this. In other cases, the reason lies in the incorrect WordPress installation or theme installation (or files permissions).
ReplyDeleteNo any problem inside the theme.
Zerge logged into my admin, and could not find a problem with my permissions or installation. The problem was not really resolved. Somewhere there is a conflict that has not been addressed. I moved onto another theme, but I recommend that other buyers who run into this problem take a look at any Cache plugins, or Jetpack, which now activates a LONG list plugins you may not be aware of.
ReplyDeleteHmm… But I have not received any response from you to my email. We are always ready to help our customers.
ReplyDeleteIt seems we did not have an understanding on certain issues. In any case, good luck.
Well, I posted to the support forum, and got no reply other than “answered by email.” AND I made a screen-capture video showing you the trouble I was experiencing ( http://vimeo.com/111683663 ) So that you could see that I had installed correctly, and had my settings correct. Then you asked for admin and FTP access, which I gave you. I’m not sure how you consider that no response? After all that, here is the ENTIRETY of your reply and last email to me.
ReplyDeleteQUOTE:
Hi, Just checked your theme settings and don’t see any problem.
If you want to change background color you can do it via Phrase Options, Styling Options.
Note: The option “Theme Style (Dark or Light)” affected only on some styles (for widgets, etc.). Any other settings can be changed via Phrase Options or directly via Editor (it depends on your needs).
END QUOTE.
That’s it. No “sorry for the trouble you are experiencing” . No promise to look into the matter further. No suggestions for additional troubleshooting. Basically your response told me to: “Style it yourself.” At least in the comment above, you say Good Luck. Thanks for nothing.
Hello Zerge,
ReplyDeleteis this theme CEO friendly?
From what I can see too many h1, h2, h3 tags on post pages, where these are not necessary…
Any comment on CEO compatibility?
Thanks
Vic
Hi,
ReplyDeleteIn general yes, this theme is SEO friendly.
Hi there,
ReplyDeleteI have been using your theme for a while, but it’s the first time I tried to post in link post format, and could not succeed. Link post format on your live demo does not work neither. When one clicks on the title, It stays in the same page. Can you please check it out?
Thanx a lot!
Hi,
ReplyDeleteDon’t see any problem on the Demo site, it works properly.
I need access to WP admin panel, to see what the problem is in your case. Send me a message through my profile
Thanx for your very quick reply. I sent you a private message.
