Hey!

just tested it and it seems the plugin fetches and converts mailto links, then adds some javascript to it for tracking events. To be honest I have no idea if this is a theme issue or a plugin issue. I cant really work around the plugin code since it hooks into the output of the shortcode and I dont know enough of the replacing function to suggest any modifications. sorry for that :/

I think currently the only choice is contact the plugin author and ask for any guidance…

Hey!

the width is a simple styling and usability choice. having the blog without sidebar stretch across the full width makes it much harder to read for visitors, because a single line of text would become much longer. The human eye loses focus much easier on a very long line than on a short one and so people will probably read more of your entry if they dont lose focus along the line ;)

Hey!

Hey! Next theme update will use wordpress mail function as default, since it seems to work much better on some server settings than the default php mail function :)

Best regards,

Hey! make sure then to re-save the setting. Since you only recently deleted the ds store file it might be that your database is still set to that value. Let me know if the error re appears once you have set and saved it to “fullwidth” :)

Hey! Once it is deleted make sure that you open the general settings of your layerslider slideshow and make sure that the skin is not set to DS_Store but to fullwidth:

Hey Guys!

Thanks for making us aware of this. was indeed a rather complicated builder bug but I was able to fix it. Next update (probably at the end of the week) will take care of it ;)

Cheers!

Hey Guys!

I have done some research before I have chosen the layerslider plugin and read tons of comments on other themes that use either one of those sliders and guess what: there were always people who liked the other slider better. Both sliders work nice for the most part but both also have their issues. Both sliders also get regular updates so if there are issues they usually get fixed fast.

So it all came down to the decision if I want to incorporate only one or both of those plugins, and quite frankly, I think its horrible that theme authors put redundant slideshows into their themes.

You load twice as much javascript, twice as much css, your server needs more memory, your customers get confused why there are 2 slideshows that do the same but different.

So I decided to only use one and the decision to use layerslider was made because it worked very well out of the box with the theme (at least for me and most user we have). I am not sure were exactly one could have problems that last for hours with the interface of the slider. There are a lot of options, thats true but its pretty straight forward how to create slides if you ask me (apart from one confirmed bug with css scaling, which the developer already acknowledged and which will be fixed soon)

So currently I have no intentions of implementing the rev slider as a default. I will maybe add a developer option to switch with a future update but there are a lot of requests that I consider more important than to add basically the same slideshow once more.

PS: Please keep in mind that support is provided voluntary on themeforest, and not at all necessary. I think its good business and thats why I pay 4 people out of my own pocket without charging any extra fees and also help out myself. But if you are rude (didnt read the deleted sentence but I know that Dude seldom censors anything) I have no problems denying anyone access to these forums.

PPS: If you have constructive criticism on how you would like to have the slider improved or whats bugging you feel free to post it. I have worked quite some time now with the layerslider team and they always took my suggestions seriously. You might find your suggestions in the next update :)

I am not sure about giving each element a unique class but the next update will allow to apply unqiue ids to sections, so you can place elements within a section and then target those elements by using the parent section id

Just got a response from the layerslider developer:

We are using the jQuery Transit plugin for accelerated CSS3 transitions for ideal performance on all devices. Both plugins registers their own cssHooks in jQuery, and it seems they are overriding each other.

We are going to use a modified jQuery Transit that uses different name-spaces in cssHooks to fix this issue. There are other small issues we need to take care of, so the next update will be released very soon and I will send it to you when it is ready.

In the meantime, enabling the “Put JS includes to body” option in the Global Settings of a slider should solve the problem.

Hey! Actually it seems to be a compatibility problem with another external script we are using, that is necessary for the portfolio sorting functions. I’ve already informed the layerslider team.

Hopefully this gets resolved soon ;)

Cheers!

Hey!

It seems this was an issue with an earlier version of the builder. i have updated your template builder to the latest version and all gaps are gone, no need for any extra settings. You should definitely update to the next version as soon as it hits themeforest, since you now got the 1.3.1 base version of the theme along with a template builder from version 1.7 :P

In one case here http://newadsend.wpengine.com/about-us/careers/ (hosted on WPengine) you had the ruler element after the section, which of course produced a whitespace of different color between the elements. In such a case you need to move the Ruler element inside the section ;)

Hey!

Currently unfortunately not possible to the way the html structure is set up. I will see what I can do but I think that this is not going to happen :/

Best regards,

Kriesi

Might be a little confusing because the description talks about preview images but actually means the grid images, not the ajax preview. WIll rename that and add a filter to the size, since I dont want to add yet another option to the grid element.

Lets keep it simple for the average user ;D

Hey Guys! Just worked out a solution for this. Since this is very random and seems to be connected to the fact that it only appears when a slideshow is used on the same page I am not sure if the solution I used will fix the problem for everyone.

The next update will include the bugfix (will be released during the next few days). If you still encounter any issues please open up a new thread then ;)

But for the majority of you the problem should be gone and it should work fine on all desktop browsers. As for fixed images on iOS: still havent seen a site that was able to pull this off, also the demos linked here that claim to work on iOS dont work for me…

Hey!

I am very sorry for the problems. it seems the update was somewhat lost when synced with github. Not sure waht happend. I had to rewrite the code and will put it into the next update. it should then work as descibed.

Once again sorry for the confusion! :)

Cheers!
