FAQ
…can I add a right sidebar on the frontpage? Is the frontpage easy to customize under the slider? Thanks and good luck.
Sure, you can add any sidebar in the content.
The content under the slider is very easy to edit, it’s the content in the editor
You can check the options for a page here, preview homepage taken as a demo ( click for better view ) :
As you can see there are many many options. And in the preview, no sidebar layout is selected, but you can select any.
Love the theme so far, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to add a slider to the homepage.
No problem, made a video here:
I cannot find the coding for the static content slider? Can you please provide the code you used in the demo for the static content slider?
Sure,
You select the Type to Inline and write this code in the Inline Content field :
<div class=”static_content”><div class=”sc-container”> <div class=”video-container alignleft”> <object width=”540″ height=”360″><param name=”allowfullscreen” value=”true” /><param name=”wmode” value=”transparent” /><param name=”allowscriptaccess” value=”always” /><param name=”movie” value=”http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=5233789&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=74AB00&fullscreen=1&autoplay=0&loop=0″ /><embed src=”http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=5233789&server=vimeo.com&show_title=0&show_byline=0&show_portrait=0&color=74AB00&fullscreen=1&autoplay=0&loop=0″ type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” allowfullscreen=”true” allowscriptaccess=”always” wmode=”transparent” width=”540″ height=”360″></embed></object> </div> <div class=”details”> <h2>STATIC CONTENT</h2> <p>Aliquam vehicula purus quis massa eleifend feugiat. Suspendisse potenti. In lacus justo, malesuada nec interdum id, facilisis quis tortor. Donec velit mi, ornare eget hendrerit non, feugiat sit amet libero. Vivamus dapibus, nibh luctus consectetur posuere, ligula tellus sagittis felis, ac sollicitudin massa odio vitae massa. Nunc elit mi, semper eu pulvinar malesuada, tincidunt in arcu. Etiam sed ligula urna, sed fringilla diam. </p> <h4>ANOTHER TAG HERE</h4> <a href=”#” class=”medium-button blue”>Buy now!!</a> <a href=”#” class=”medium-button green”>Another action</a> </div> </div></div>
The demo site makes mention of the “sidebar shortcode” but it is not in the documentation. Can you give an example of its use?
[ sidebar id=”footer1″ ]
footer1 – footer4
Or
[ sidebar id=”blog-sidebar” ]
Or if you go to Widgets area and expand Custom Sidebar 1 for example, it will give you exactly the code you need

Hi,
I’ve been looking at your theme and I really love it. I’d like to use it on my site, but it’d be really helpful to get an exact copy, content and all, of the existing demo site.
However, I’ve followed the instructions to import everything from the demo site and it’s not working properly. I don’t seem to be getting it all.
Are there any recommendations you can provide? Or ideas on what I might be missing or doing incorrectly?
Thanks for this amazing-looking theme.
Dan
