Hey Sakin,

Yesterday I tried uploading my new website and got nowhere but having my site down for several hours: until this morning when I decided to upload fresh, which means I have a lot of work to do. Fortunately, I have a saved data which is only missing a couple of my post. I have those on file too, so I will just have to republish them.

Also, I have a good idea of where I wanted to go.

By the way, when I installed Catchbox, all of the side widgets were in the Header Sidebar, which made my menu show up almost all the way to the bottom. I managed to correct it though by switching them back to the main sidebar. This may be an issue with new installers of your Catchbox theme, but it’s easy to fix.

For some reason, I do not seem to have as many options. I wanted to change the colors of the text and all I found was the codes, which I don’t have but I suppose I can find it from another source, like my Paintshop. Thing is, with the original Catchbox Pro, I was able to use a color wheel or something like that. I don’t find that option anymore. Or, am I just forgetting where to look?

Secondly, I also cannot find a function to turn off the search button in the header, which I do not want.

Thirdly, I would like to change the favicon but it no longer has an option to upload a file, only an address for a file. Thing is, the media files do not open into a file and so I cannot get a url for the photo to add (the only option given).

I don’t remember these issues with the previous version. Maybe I’m just confused, but if you could help me sort these things out, I would appreciate it.

Oh, by the way, now that I have started fresh, your ad does show, though I will need to use a smaller banner or shrink my custom header.

Here is a password and username to get you in as an administrator. Do this when it is convenient to you as you have already been very helpful.

My Regards,

Sakin,

I see what you mean with that site. I am wondering if perhaps the size of my banner for the name of my website is keeping the ad from showing up.

Anyway, I am hoping to get the new website design up today. There will be several things I need to do once I get it online but if you can fix it, I’ll let you know when it’s up and get you an administrator username so you can get into it.

Thanks for your help.

That is exactly what I did. I added the code you gave me to Theme Options, Custom CSS. I also added the ad to Header Right Sidebar.

What size of ad have you used that works with it?

Sakin,

I don’t have a URL as I have the site offline, it’s on a WAMP server. It’s to replace the existing site at fidlerten.com

I have taken a screen shot of the top half of the webpage.

The top right side is where I would like to place the ad.

I added the code you gave me in my CSS but it has not changed anything.

Sakin,

I haven’t been able to get it to work yet.

I dropped a Adsense ad in it and set it first for a Leaderboard of 728 x 90 and since that didn’t work, I placed a smaller one: 468 x60. Neither one worked.

What is the limit of space available for an ad? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Sakin,

I haven’t tried the new update yet but it sounds absolutely wonderful.

I have to humbly apologize for my abrasive attitude earlier. Since I had been been working to get this site up with so many roadblocks, that I let my frustrations get the better of me. Please forgive me. You have responded beautifully to the problem and you have also improved your Catchbox Pro’s whole design, making it easier for newbies like me.

Thank You much and I’ll let you know how the update goes.

My Best Regards,

They are the same version; the parent theme is Catchbox Pro 1.2 and so is the child theme,being that I got the child theme from it originally.   What would you suggest I do; reinstall the earlier version of Catchbox Pro, create a child and then update the child?

I’m a little confused why it is doing that, being that it is updated already.

[fidlerten]

Sakin,

Yes, I do need your help with another issue.

When I create a child theme from Catchbox Pro 1.2, which is your latest update, I get a message saying I need to update the current theme. It shouldn’t be asking me this because I got the original child theme from the 1.2 updated version.

So, I went ahead and updated it again by changing to another theme and deleting all of Catchbox Pro. Then reinstalling the updated version of Catchbox Pro, then creating yet another child theme, and again, getting the same old message that the child theme needs updating.

Right now, I’m going to just ignore the update until you can tell me what I need to do.

Thank you Sakin, that is what I had discovered from a search at WordPress.org. I haven’t had much time lately to work on it but if I have anymore questions, I will get back to you.

Sincerely,

Sakin,

Forgive me for being so direct and hostile, but it is not the money for the theme I am frustrated about. I have just spend the last few days trying to set a Wamp server test site up to replace an existing one and the theme I chose has an empty space that I wish to fill with something of my choosing. And now I am being told that is not possible without much difficulty.

This is what I want to know Sakin; why is it that such a large swath of a page is set up so that the website owner needs to find someone to fix it for them?

I am also confused about this statement of yours, I am not sure what you are saying:

The server you have asked in not there in our Catch Box Pro theme.

As far as the search box, I figured that out, and the part about adding the Adsense ads through the rest. But, the only thing holding me up now, is a huge blank spot at the top of my website. Shouldn’t be a problem but I’m not getting any help here I see.

 

 

[fidlerten]

So you’re saying there is no access to a huge portion of the very top of the page. I don’t understand;the images I saw promoting this theme, showed that area being utilized. I of course assume when I look at a photo of what I suppose to be getting and instead, I get a blank space that I cannot fill unless I pay someone some more to change it.
I have a better idea; why don’t I just do a some searching on the internet and find some help there for free.

I have to admit, I’m rather disappointed to know I have to do a lot more work, simply because someone designs a theme so that after buying it, you then find you have to spend a great deal more money, just to have further access to what you already paid for. That’s like a car dealer showing off a car and after the person buys it, the car dealer tells them that they actually only bought the back end and they’ll need to pay some more money if they want the front.

Thanks for the level of service, tells me to be more careful next time picking a theme.
