That’s really bizarre. Is that necessary on other pages–like yoursite.com/index.php/about

IF you wouldn’t mind sending over a link, I’ll take a look too.

[Bill Robbins]

Here’s the easiest way to do it. In the navigation builder (Appearance > Menu) create a “Custom Link” that has your site URL then a /podcast

In the demo it looks like this: http://www.organizedthemes.com/try/authentic/podcast

Add that link to your navigation and save your changes. You should have a podcast page now like the demo does.

If you don’t see the page like the demo, you may need to save your permalinks again. Go to the settings section of your WordPress control panel and select permalinks. If you’ve already selected something other than the default, just click save to update them for the podcasting. If you haven’t selected a permalink structure other than the default, I’d suggest doing so. That will make your URL’s look much nicer and easier to read.

If you have any trouble, let me know.

It is pretty easy to add. If you’ll send an email to us, I’ll email you back a template file. You’ll just need to add it to your wp-content/themes/authentic directory on your server.

This has me most perplexed. I took a look through the code on your archive page and everything looks fine. Translating the links shouldn’t have any bearing on forcing the download to still work.

The download works by forcing some headers to be applied to the file that lets the browser know that this file is to be saved instead of opened. The code looks like this:

header(“Cache-Control: public”);
header(“Content-Description: File Transfer”);
header(“Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$file”);
header(“Content-Type: application/zip”);
header(“Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary”);

I tried to do a bit of research to see if the site being in Norwegian would have an impact on this, but I wasn’t able to track anything down. Not speaking Norwegian made the search a bit tough too.

It’s either a language problem, or it could be a server limitation. You could do a quick server test by installing the WordPress Download Monitor plugin and creating a test download. There is a setting on each download that lets you force the file to be downloaded. My download script does essentially the same thing, so if the Download Monitor’s force download doesn’t work as well, it’s most likely a server limitation.

Let me know what you turn up there and I’ll be glad to see what I can do then.

Great question. If you’ll look in the right hand column when you’re editing a staff member, below the “Staff Type” box, there is another box labeled “Attributes” You can enter a number into the “order” section to specify which staff members come first.

I’d suggest numbering by 5’s or 10’s so you can easily insert a new person between others without having to reorder your list.

There is also a plugin called Post Types Order that allows for drag and drop ordering. It has good reviews, though I haven’t used it personally.

Let me know if you have any other questions.

[Bill Robbins]

Good question. Here’s how to make the change.

1) Go to the appearance section of your WordPress control panel and select edit to open up the theme editor.
2) From the list of files on your right, choose index.php and look for this spot:

<?php comments_template(”,true); ?>

3) Delete it and save your changes.
4) Open up single-header.php and delete that line again.
5) Save your changes.
6) Open up single-no-header.php and delete that line one last time.
7) Save your changes.

Now references to comments will be removed from the theme.

Let me know if you need anything else.

[Bill Robbins]

Nick, I’m glad you’ve enjoyed the theme. Thanks for asking about the PSD. It should be there to download now. Let me know if you need anything else.

[Bill Robbins]

To make a page display your staff members, look in the right hand column below the publish section for a page template drop down. Select “Staff Page” and publish/update your page. Now the staff members you create in your staff section will be visible there.

[Bill Robbins]

Thanks Greg. It looks like the forum changed the quotes from being regular ones to fancy ones and that was causing the error. I swapped them out and tried a submission on your site and it didn’t pull up an error this time. Let me know if you have any trouble.

[Bill Robbins]

Ok. Here’s the trouble. I’m still getting the hang of pasting code into the forum. It’s changing the quotation marks and that’s what’s causing the button to not display even though the code looks correct. I’ve pasted the correct code to a service called Paste Bin and you can find it at http://pastebin.com/tzh5Hn6G

Try using it and see if that doesn’t help.

[Bill Robbins]

Thanks. Try selecting the “Automatically add paragraphs” checkbox at the bottom of the text widget and see if that doesn’t help.

[Bill Robbins]

Could you send over a link to it so I can take a closer look?

[Bill Robbins]

Thanks. I was able to publish the slides. I’m not sure why they weren’t updating beyond a draft status. It shouldn’t be browser specific, but I was using Chrome when I made the switch. If you run into any other trouble, let me know.

[Bill Robbins]

Would you mind emailing a login to support@organizedthemes.com so I can take a closer look?

[Bill Robbins]

You can add pages (and categories) to your navigation by going to the Appearance section of your WordPress control panel and selecting menu. There you can add and arrange your pages as you’d like to. There is a quick video about it in our video section.

If you have any trouble, let me know.

[Bill Robbins]

Here’s a quick way to do that. If you’ll move the widgets from “OpBan Videos” on down to the “Home Bottom” sidebar that should let them sit beside your recent posts instead of on top of them. If you have any trouble, let me know.

[Bill Robbins]

That’s a most unusual problem. Are you able to create new pages or posts and publish them or do they also remain in a draft state like the slides do?

[Bill Robbins]

Great question. The “Find Your Hope” button on the home page is inside a text widget. The button code inside the text widget looks like this:

<a class=”button” href=”http://www.organizedthemes.com/try/authentic&#8221;>Find Your Hope</a>

Here’s to modify it:

1) Change the http://www.organizedthemes.com/try/authentic to the URL you’d like to link to.
2) Change the Find Your Hope to the text you’d like to display.
3) Update your widget.

You should now have a button in your text widget. You can also add this on a page/post in the HTML editor.

Let me know if you have any trouble and I’m glad your still enjoying the theme.

[Bill Robbins]

That would be great. We’re planning on recreating the showcase on the main site soon. It’s been quite a while since it was last updated.

[Bill Robbins]

WordPress’ built in search is a bit weak. You might try using the “Search Everything” plugin (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-everything/). It can be configured to search specific parts of your content such as tags or categories. Let me know if you have any trouble.

[Bill Robbins]

Any chance you could send a login so I could take a closer look?

[Bill Robbins]

Here’s one option for you. Go to the appearance section of your WordPress control panel and select edit to open up the theme editor. From the list of files on your right, choose newsletter-bar.php and look for this spot:

<form id=”signup” action=”<?php echo get_permalink(); ?>” method=”post”>

and replace it with this:

<form id=”signup” action=”<?php echo bloginfo(‘url’); ?>” method=”post”>

save your changes and see if that doesn’t help the sign up box for you.

[Bill Robbins]

Ken, sorry for any trouble. I took a look and it seems like the Facebook widget is no longer up on the font page. Also for the featured row, do you have five posts published to that category? Just let me know.

[Bill Robbins]

Here are two styles you’ll need to add to your style.css file. I made the third tier drop down a bit wider to keep the “Higher Education” link from moving to two lines while it’s being hovered.

ul.menu li li:hover ul,
ul.menu li li.sfHover ul {
width: 180px;
left: 10px;
top: 10px;
}

ul.menu li li li:hover ul,
ul.menu li li li.sfHover ul {
left: 180px;
top: 0;
}

By the way, I love how your site has turned out. Would you be open to having it included in the showcase?

[Bill Robbins]

Thanks Jim. I’ll email you a couple of modified files this evening. What address do you want me to send them to?
