Some small questions

Mgatzke

1. I don’t want the category, the tags and the comment counter to be shown on the blog page. It should only be seen inside a single post. How do I do that?
2. I want to change the color for the icons next to each post. (I hat that orange, sorry)
3. Can I have a gallery inside a blog post?

Beside that, great theme.

(my site: marcusgatzke.de)

Concerning 3 I have another question:

I used image with lightbox in two different blog posts. Now both images appear as a gallery in both posts.

(The first two blogposts: http://marcusgatzke.de/blog)

Inside the blogpost it works fine, but on the blog mainpage it does not. Anyway I can avoid that?

In the end it should work like this: click on a picture on the blog mainpage -> get inside the blogpost.

Click on the picture inside the blogpost -> lightbox.

Thanks,

Marcus

Hello :-)

1. First you have to decide if you want to make changes in original theme or in child theme http://apollo13.eu/docs/hypershot/#!/modification_of_theme
Next you copy loop.php from main theme to child theme and in line 55 remove this <?php a13_post_info(); ?>.

2. Use this custom CSS( http://apollo13.eu/docs/hypershot/#!/plugins_recomendations_custom_css )

.post-icon, #comments-title:before, #reply-title:before{
    background-color: #000000;
}

3. To get gallery like this http://themes.apollo13.eu/hypershot/wordpress-gallery/ read this http://codex.wordpress.org/The_WordPress_Gallery

3a. Use featured image to present post image http://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Thumbnails

Hello Air,

thanks a lot! I will try your suggestions.

But concerning 3a: I tried that, but the featured image will show up inside the post as well. (so I have twice the same picture inside the blogpost) Can I avoid that somehow?

And sorry, but I have another small problem. I want that filter and RSS buttons in my blog: http://themeforest.net/item/hypershot-photography-portfolio-wordpress-theme/full_screen_preview/3391790

Can I have them even without having a sidebar? (Edit: As I see in the preview I can have them without a sidebar) So how do I add them?

Great support btw!

Hi Again:-)

Remove featured image from post:

So we this time you copy single.php to child theme, and remove lines ~16-21:

<?php
                    if(get_post_meta(get_the_ID(), '_widget_area', true) == 'off')
                        a13_top_image_video( get_the_ID(), 940, 0, 'full' );
                    else
                        a13_top_image_video( get_the_ID(), 600 );
                ?>

Blog buttons:
Go to Hypershot theme-> Blog & Archives-> Blog appearance and there switch them on :-) You should have them switched on by default, but maybe I am wrong:-)

With regards.

It seems a bit more complicated.

Even if the featured image inside the blogpost would disappear, I still have a double picture on the blogpage. This happens, because my bloposts only consists of pictures and no text... (http://marcusgatzke.de/blog) Any easy solution for that?

Edit: I found a workaround, but just by using no lightbox at all...

PS: Can I reduce the filter to tags only?

PPS: Can I set a default background image for all blogposts?

PPS: Where can I change the font-size for blogposts (title)?

Sorry to have that many questions. The theme is great, the one I was searching for a long time. But still I want to tweak it a bit to my needs.

Regards,

Marcus

As for your main problem I believe that you could use <!--more--> tag at begin of you post, so content can be visible only inside post. More here http://codex.wordpress.org/Writing_Posts#Visual_Versus_Text_Editor

Can I set a default background image for all blogposts?
For now there is no such option, but you can set global background for all pages in
Hypershot theme-> Appearance-> Main appearance settings

Where can I change the font-size for blogposts (title)?
Use this custom CSS

h1.post-title, h2.post-title {
    font-size: 26px;
}

Can I reduce the filter to tags only?
You will have to add this custom CSS

#blog-filters > div{
    width: 150px;
}
.js #blog-filters > div > div{
    width: 100%;
}
.js #blog-filters .cat-parent{
    display: none;
}

done:-)

With regards.
