Hi!

I’m busy customizing the theme and found out that when the logo is uploaded, the quality is less than the original.

You can see the difference in my test-invironment: gadgetreview.eu and the original at gadgetgoeroe.nl.

And yes, I’m 100% sure that I’m uploading a high-res version of the logo. Does this theme do anything with the uploaded header to make the filesize smaller or so? What’s the cause of this behavior?

Thanks!

Regards,
Roeland

Also Arved, I’m curious what tool you were using to examine the review pages. I would like to know how Google views these reviews http://appcomrade.com/worms-3/

How could I make Google know that I’m reviewing “Worms 3” ?

I’m just signing up from notifications to this thread as I’m interested in this too.

I mean I could setup a custom post field to rename the “Review Overview” on each individual post, but I would rather wait until the theme has a custom form itself on the review editor.

Hi,

I’m trying to do this http://screencast.com/t/kDbmDCa9

Currently I have a function that looks like this:

/*** Adds ads and share/related items

function content_injector($content) { 
		global $wp_query;	
		$postid = $wp_query->post->ID;                  
		if (get_post_meta($postid, 'top_ad', true) != 'off' ) {	
top_ad code
} 		
		if (get_post_meta($postid, 'bottom_ad', true) != 'off' ) {	
bottom_ad code
}
 if (is_single()) {
$share_after_ad = do_shortcode('[shareaholic app="share_buttons" id="4703992"]');
$related_after_ad = do_shortcode('[shareaholic app="recommendations" id="4704000"]');
 }	
$content = $top_ad . $content . $bottom_ad . $share_after_ad . $related_after_ad; 
return $content; 

}
add_filter('the_content', 'content_injector');

I’m wondering how I can run the theme’s get_review() function and assigned it to a variable $review so I can do something like this:

$content = $top_ad . $content . $review . $bottom_ad . $share_after_ad . $related_after_ad; 
return $content; 

I don’t really know my way around PHP that well so I’m not sure if I have to use echo get_review() or something like that to make get_review() output its HTML goodies.

So far everything I’ve tried just brings up a white page when I refresh.

Hello, and thanks for the great theme.

I would like to request the ability to override the total rating in a post that uses the built-in review system. Sometimes I would like to break down reviews with ratings for individual facets of the subject in question, but I don’t want the final rating to be an average of the sub-ratings.

For example, something that has sub-ratings less than five stars may still deserve a 5-star overall score.

If this is already implemented and I’m just missing it, could someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks!

I’m using module 5 for the homepage and categories http://appcomrade.com/category/app-reviews/iphone-apps/ if you look at the last row, there is only one post instead of three to fill up the row.

How can I manage the amount of posts per category/home page?

I tried changing the code of the 404.php page to

$args = array(
‘post_type’=> ‘post’,
‘showposts’ => 6
);
query_posts(‘cat =-65,-1559,-1481,-8,-1280’);

from
$args = array(
‘post_type’=> ‘post’,
‘showposts’ => 6
);
query_posts($args);

But all of the categories are still showing up. I want only app reviews to show up on the 404.

Thanks that worked for me.

I’m curious I can make the Ad function insert code after the content, yet still before the Shareaholic plugin?

function my_function($content) {
$content = ‘<p>top_ad</p>’ . $content . ‘<p>bottom_ad</p>’;
return $content;
}

Anything inside the “bottom_ad” code above comes after Shareaholic. http://screencast.com/t/3670HzvAr

Should I look into the Shareaholic code if this is beyond the scope of your theme’s support?

Also what file should I edit (or function should I create) to add an Ad unit at the top of category pages like this one http://appcomrade.com/category/app-reviews/featured-apps/

This is an example of what I’m trying to do on category pages http://screencast.com/t/vNiWaJeO8ZM

Im try change option of “Crop features image” to “Crop”, and then changed back.
After this preview-picture in new posts ceased to be of such dimensions as to be in theme. And just became smaller copies of the original image. Why so?

And i try “Regenerate Thumbnails” – not change(

Hi, Marius.

I’m talking about how Google read the review box.

I know I have the option to give 1 to 10, but Google still read in a 1-5 fashion.
The same for the text, I’m not talking about the review summary, but the phrase itself “Review Overview” in the review box. Google is taking that phrase as the item reviewed meta, so for Google all my reviews are of something called Review Overview.

Thanks and happy New Year!

Using module 6 on this category page gives me two columns of “posts” or app icons. It also give me a nice non-AJAX pagination at the bottom. http://appcomrade.com/category/app-reviews/featured-apps/

If I create a normal page, and then use the visual editor to create a “category page” using Blocks 3 then I get 3 columns of app icons like so http://appcomrade.com/featured-apps/

However, this Blocks 3 page only uses AJAX pagination (or load more, or infinite scroll) http://appcomrade.com/featured-apps/

How can I make the Blocks 3 block page http://appcomrade.com/featured-apps/ use the same 1,2,3……9 pagination as seen on module 6? http://appcomrade.com/category/app-reviews/featured-apps/

Happy new years,

This may not help you, but Regenerate thumbnails plugin worked great for us with thousands of files.

http://wordpress.org/plugins/regenerate-thumbnails/

HOWEVER: if your system “times out” then you need to disable other plugins while doing a large operation on so many images – especially if you have larger then needed images (like if you uploaded 1MB files for images vs 50kb for a gallery picture, as one example), and perhaps set your website to “closed temporarily” (plugin to do this I think). Upshot is you want to
1) make sure your domain on your hosting plan has enough resources available to do a major operation
2) make sure you have enough disk space for all the new image sizes (some people with smaller hosting storage forget about this, as you’re basically perhaps tripling the number of images you will have from say 18,000 to 36,000 (3 old thumbs, 3 new thumbs)

So, plugin will “die” if not enough memory to run or space to write.

If your system still cannot handle doing that much image processing, you may want to look at the Jetpack plugin, PHOTON: http://jetpack.me/support/photon/ .

When you change to ANY new theme in WP you need to redo the image thumbnails as not all themes use the same layout, or thumbnail sizes, which of course is one of the things which makes each WP theme different.

Note that you may wish to also review the various plugins at wordpress.org on this topic as redoing all your graphics is part of using ANY new theme; it’s not specific to this theme.

Auto Post Thumbnail PRO for $7 from Themeforest also works awesome on one of our sites since we pull in content from our mothership site to a sister site via RSS.

Sorry don’t have better help on this one.

Here are some request for the theme. 🙂

– Instead of “Review Overview” in the review box, it should have the option to enter the text, or at least something that renders the post title. Google is using this field as the itemreviewed meta.

– Rating values should be from 1 to 100 (or 1 to 10).

Hope u can include this suggestions in future releases. Have a great weeekend.

Great theme but I was wondering if there is an easy way to implement black and white feature image to color rollovers? Here is some code but I’m not sure if this is the best way.

http://bavotasan.com/2011/create-black-white-thumbnail-wordpress/comment-page-2/#comments

Also can I delete the revolution slider plugin, I don’t seem to be using it.

looking forward to default feature image, no repeat posts on page, no slide big slider and integrated social buttons on post preview and single page.

Hi, guys.
I tried twice to find out from you how I create images preview for existing articles (I have over 6000).
The first time I was advised use “rebuild the thumbnails” – http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609/comments?page=41#comment_5418482
And its not work – http://themeforest.net/item/newspaper/5489609/comments?page=41#comment_5421841
The second time I was advised use “Auto Post Thumbnail”. I try, but this solution is awful! Plugin makes the picture preview square, quite different from those that made ​​by template if hands set!
please. help me.

Hi, Marius.

The error displayed in all the reviews in your demo page are:

Error: Missing required hCard “author”

Error: Page contains property “logo” which is not part of the schema.
Error: No rich snippet will be generated for this data, because it appears to include multiple reviews of an item, but no aggregate review information.

Hello,
What error do you mean? That with missing vCard…
We will take a look about that.

Thanks

It’s a general issue. All the reviews in your demo page also display the errors when checked with the Google Richsnippet Tool.

I created a test page called test page and went through adding a template, publishing it, then preview and it works perfectly, so cant understand why I can not have a page called blog that works, or even our blog (which I don’t want to call it), driving me nuts!

Seems that I am in Australia, and when someone does answer I will probably be asleep.

Cant seems to edit my first post so have to keep re-posting, where did that edit button go! lol

set up page called blog (referenced in customize to use that page for the blog) used visual composer and selected template – homepage – magazinly, went into slide and added info, updated (published) went to preview changes and it takes me back to home page not blog, when I do click on blog it looks the same as it did before I made the changes with my posts all on there but no slider or anything else, just set up like module 5.

Then tried deleting the template and just made a slider, and added info asked for and still it takes me to homepage not blog, and my blog is the same as it was previously.

Thanks!!
