can’t seem to use theme options to edit background header image or the logo… or any of the other upload and change options. is this because of wordpress 4.0? do you plan on fixing?
ReplyDeletethanks
I see that you replied to someone who asked a question after me, so i know you are still responding to discussion stuff… i am not asking for support, merely wondering if you have any plans to tackle the javascript issues from the current downloadable version and make it compatible with wordpress 4.0 or if i need to seek other options… please let me know.
ReplyDeletehi! sorry for the late reply, it was a bit hectic lately, and i skipped unwillingly some of the answers. I think your problem might indeed be from the WP version, unfortunately i don’t think there will be an update for the theme anymore cause the developer who worked on it no longer works with me, and the level of coding required surpasses my abilities:(
ReplyDeleteYou can instruct people to do the following for a work around:
ReplyDeleteFor all of the people who have the media uploader break and tag listing break when you update to 4.1.1, you need to edit your wp-config.php file and add this line in, below the DB host define.
define( ‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false );
It will fix both of these problems. Here is the wordpress.org codex link backing up my statement: https://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Disable_Javascript_Concatenation
and if that doesnt work then I suggest commenting out this line: define( ‘JS_ADMIN’, TEMPPATH. ”/com/sakurapixel/js”);
ReplyDeletein the functions.php file… it will break your ability to upload favicon and header but it will allow the continued use of the code. hope this helps.
Ok, i took a more in-depth look at what is happening in the JS code because some of the upload images for the posts, pages, portfolio, theme options broke when I commented out the thing above.
ReplyDeleteThe issue is with the color picker (cpicker folder in /com/sakurapixel/js) and the reference in each js file in each folder needs to be commented out. Need to comment out this:
// handleColorSelection();
// //color selection – multiple items
// function handleColorSelection(){
// jQuery(’#blog_text_color_preview, #blog_back_color_preview’).ColorPicker({
// onSubmit: function(hsb, hex, rgb, el) {
// jQuery(el).val(hex);
// jQuery(el).ColorPickerHide();
// },
// onBeforeShow: function () {
// jQuery(this).ColorPickerSetColor(this.value);
// }
// }).bind(‘keyup’, function(){
// jQuery(this).ColorPickerSetColor(this.value);
// });
// }
//
and all functions that reference the color picker… there are a few weird functions referencing the color picker in theme options. I now have the entire theme working minus the color picker in WP 4.2
Before i buy this theme i want to know if i can customize menu like in this site
ReplyDeleteregent-college.edu
If yes – i want to know if it is easy or difficult
Hi! Sorry for the late reply, i was out for the weekend. If you mean that you want to have the menu with oblique colored shapes like that, you can simply upload a pciture of that shape as menu tile background, as you can see in the demo, there are some menu tiles that have a photo as background – infact all can have either a photo ro full color.
ReplyDeletehi – i know the theme is no longer supported, but i was wondering if you are planning to do updates again at any point in the future? I am doing speed testing on the theme and it is scoring very low compared to other themes i am trying out with the same content. do you have any advice for speed optimization with this theme, in particular? thanks very much.
ReplyDeleteHi, As the previous comment said I know this theme is no longer being supported—BUT any chance updating the version to being compatible with a newer version of WordPress? Which is not affected by the critical security vulnerabilities recently discovered:
ReplyDeletehttps://wordpress.org/news/2014/11/wordpress-4-0-1/
I would hate to loose such a unique theme, because of it breaking once we update. The theme says its compatible with WP 3.5—which is affected by a critical cross-site scripting vulnerability.
Please respond either-way so we can make a conscious decision on what to do. Thanks.
hi there, there are no plans for making it available for 4.0, however i suggest you try and install it fresh on a new 4.0 copy and check if anything breaks, so that maybe there will not be an need to change it!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the reply, will do and will report the findings just in case for others who have purchased it.
ReplyDeleteHi, we bought this theme but the add media button is not working. It works with other themes. Any idea how to fix this?
ReplyDeleteCan anyone help with this please?
ReplyDeleteI really need this fixed. If you cannot help I’d like a refund because the theme is not working properly.
ReplyDeleteHello!, I need to create a child theme of this, because I need to modify several things for my client. For instance: some spanish translations (I can’t with language files), dates, and so on.
ReplyDeleteI followed the normal steps in order to do that but I lose the backend styles and many other things, and I don’t know what is wrong.
Can you help me creating a child theme of squidmag?
Thank you!
I bought this theme but it isn’t compatible with the current wordpress. Could I take another theme?
ReplyDeleteHi there! Normally you cannot simply switch them, but you can write me on the contact page and we can see what we can do!
ReplyDeleteFor all of the people who have the media uploader break and tag listing break when you update to 4.1.1, you need to edit your wp-config.php file and add this line in, below the DB host define.
ReplyDeletedefine( ‘CONCATENATE_SCRIPTS’, false );
