1. Jordan | August 18th, 2008 at 5:52 am

   what if I want to combine a bunch of feeds into one main feed. basically like techmeme.com, anyone have any ideas? I’ve got a decent start but I’d appreciate some help.

   Thanks!

   • Genkisan | August 18th, 2008 at 7:11 am

   Hi,

   When I’m trying to activate the plugin I get the following message:

   Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class SimplePie in /var/www/wordpress/wp-content/themes/onenews/includes/simplepie.inc on line 382

   How may I fix this?

   Thanks,
   Tarz

   • Genkisan | August 21st, 2008 at 10:50 pm

     This theme doesn’t require any plugin. If you have the simplepie plugin, simply deactivate it.

   Hi,

   I just picked up the theme. I want to know in your next update, if you could provide a feature, where instead of 6 videos/photos, we could 4 and keep the remaining space for a banner ad. You can see it in popurls, next to the flickr images.

   Please comment.

   • Genkisan | September 2nd, 2008 at 3:55 pm

     I did consider that option before release but realised that there are too many unpredictable variables involved. So came up with the optional html field in the textRSS widget instead.

     If you don’t mind hard coding, it can be still be done by adding the following code to the full-width OneNews HTML widget

     <div style="width:635px;float:left;">
     <h2><a href="http://flickr.com">Flickr</a></h2>
     <?php
     echo SimplePieWP('http://api.flickr.com/services/feeds/photos_public.gne?tags=easternparkway&lang=en-us&format=atom', array(
     'items' => 8,
     'template' => 'photorss',
     ));
     ?>
     </div>
     <h2>Sponsors</h2>
     <div style="width:300px;float:right;margin:0 15px 0 0;">
     Your Ad Code</div>

   I’m using this awesome theme at http://www.wpthemesnews.com.
   I customized the design to fit my needs and it’s doing pretty well.
   Really easy to use !

   Thanks Genkisan !

5. wot | October 29th, 2008 at 8:32 pm

   Hi,

   I recently purchased the premium edition of the template but get the following error when activating it.

   Warning: /home/wotnstv/public_html/headlines/wp-content/themes/onenewspremium/includes/cache/83019d3cfa0bd090fc02f7da4cebef58.spc is not writeable in /home/wotnstv/public_html/headlines/wp-content/themes/onenewspremium/includes/simplepie.inc on line 1770

   How do I fix this?

   Thanks

   • Genkisan | October 29th, 2008 at 8:52 pm

     Try to delete all the spc files in the cache folder. Also set the cache folder permission to 755 or 777.

6. max | December 14th, 2008 at 2:26 am

   Hi
   Does this have the ability to make content pages or archives of older feed content or is this just able to display the latest feed content ?

   • Genkisan | December 14th, 2008 at 3:34 pm

     Just able to display the latest feed content.

7. Adam | December 28th, 2008 at 6:57 am

   Hi,

   Nice job on the OneNews Theme. Quality stuff. I have it working OK so far but for the life of me I can not figure out how to get a custom search for Stumbleupon.com. Can you help me out?

   http://www.eridernews.com/newsfeeds/

   Thanks,

   Adam

   • Genkisan | December 28th, 2008 at 7:55 am

     Stumbleupon sure makes it tough, have to google for it and the options seems limited, only by individual user.

8. Adam | December 29th, 2008 at 1:26 am

   Hi again,

   What do you recommend for rss feeds from youtube?

   • Genkisan | December 29th, 2008 at 7:32 am

     YouTube feeds available here and here

9. wieyoga | January 5th, 2009 at 5:24 pm

   great theme …! what your opinion about the seo

   • Genkisan | January 6th, 2009 at 8:47 am

     You can use this theme on its own or install another blog in http://your-domain.com/subdir. Then you can easily setup pages with your targeted keywords, which should be boost your seo.

10. Doug | January 6th, 2009 at 6:59 am

    why don’t you return your emails?

    why is my website http://www.iphoneftw.com broken?

    • Genkisan | January 6th, 2009 at 8:38 am

      I understand you may be eager to fix things but I’m not on 24×7 standby support. And it’s only been 15 hours since your last mail, not like 15 days.

      As you have moved to a new server, the server path has probably changed. Since you can’t login to the admin, you have to edit the database directly (phpmyadmin recommended). In the wp_options table, look for the following 3 option_name and delete their option_value
      - simplepie_processing
      - simplepie_set_cache_location
      - simplepie_template

      • Doug | January 6th, 2009 at 4:49 pm

        You’re right, I did recently move to a dedicated server

        thanks! that got rid of the errors, but now only half of the page shows up. . .and I still get a 500 internal server error when I try to login via the admin panel

        sorry about being impatient. i have internet-ocd. so even the smallest image that is mis-aligned bugs me(and continues more and more until I fix it).

        I make a living online, and tend to answer support critical emails within the hour. It’s hard for me to understand that other people don’t do the same(again, I’m very sorry).

        • Genkisan | January 6th, 2009 at 8:05 pm

          I’m not sure what’s the problem but try any or all of the following
          - rename your .htaccess (if after renaming works, then the settings in there is wrong)
          - switch between php4 and php5
          - search through the database for your old server path and replace with your new server path
          - delete all files in the /themes/onenewspremium/includes/cache folder
          - clear wp-super-cache and disable the plugin (if installed)
          - rename your wp-content/plugins to confirm that it’s not plugins problem

11. Bobby | January 17th, 2009 at 11:36 pm

    I have hundreds of pages that I want to build. I actually have an Excel file with all of the URLs, parameters, etc for each page. Is that something I could hire you for – doing a back-end load so no one has to do this manually to start?

    • Genkisan | January 18th, 2009 at 9:51 am

      I’m afraid I unable help you with that.

      • Bobby | January 19th, 2009 at 3:08 am

        Is this something that is even possible? Like if I hired a contractor that understood WordPress would they be able to do it? How simple would something like this to do?

        Also, just on a side note – are there any known limitations on number of feed pages you could have?

        • Genkisan | January 19th, 2009 at 7:49 am

          For me it’s not possible but I don’t really know.. a wordpress ninja might pull it off?

          There shouldn’t be any limitation, except perhaps your server load.

12. Mihail | January 22nd, 2009 at 7:46 pm

    Hello

    I was wondering if these theme also has the functionality to moderate the RSS feeds items to publish. Something like WP-O-Matic does on the RSS-to-post, but of course in this theme does something else. Still, I am interested into that functionality particularly: being able to chose which items from the RSS to show.

    Thanks!

    • Genkisan | January 23rd, 2009 at 7:10 am

      Nope, as the theme does not create new posts like WP-O-Matic.

13. Shahid N. Shah | February 2nd, 2009 at 10:24 am

    Hi, I’ve purchased and tried out the premium version and it looks pretty nice. However, as I was starting to build my site it’s clear that it will be a lot of work managing the feeds in each of the widgets, especially if I decide to move stuff around or create multiple pages (where I might want the same feed on multiple pages).

    Is there any way to import and manage the feeds directly in the database instead of doing it through the UI? I have good MySQL skills and have phpMyAdmin so I am comfortable doing that.

    Can you point me to the code or other documentation that could show me how to create dozens of different pages, feeds, etc directly through the database so that I don’t spend so much time hand typing all my feeds?

    • Genkisan | February 2nd, 2009 at 2:42 pm

      I’ve not been able to figure out how as the data is spread across a few rows. Also WordPress generate dynamic IDs for each widgets.
      You can see for yourself in the wp_options table. Ssearch for where “option_name” LIKE %widget%.
      The main one to delve into is the sidebar_widgets and the widget_onenews_xxxx.

14. SP | February 2nd, 2009 at 10:40 pm

    Hi – am considering buying the OneNews theme but first need to know if it offers a search facility as per popurls or is it possible to add Google search? thanks

    • Genkisan | February 3rd, 2009 at 6:46 am

      As the feeds are stored as text and not posts, they are not searchable within WordPress. But Google search should work.

15. Karl | March 25th, 2009 at 8:02 am

    Hi, great theme. Thanks.
    Is it possible to add multiple feed pages (Alltop-model) with posts instead of pages? This would make it possible to categorize the topic-pages and use conditional tags etc.

    • Genkisan | March 25th, 2009 at 3:39 pm

      Pages were used as page templates can be used on them.
      You can try out the Simple Tags plugin to tag pages
      http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-tags/

16. ViiNT | April 22nd, 2009 at 3:57 am

    Hi! This is a great theme… I’m working on it right now…

    I have two problems:

    1. When I hover the mouse over the logo it “kind of underlines it”… Is this a margin/padding issue?

    2. Is it possible to hide some pages (contact us, about, etc) from the Alphabet Lists? What’s the easiest way to do it?

    Thanks in advance!!

    regards

    • Genkisan | April 22nd, 2009 at 12:13 pm

      1. Would be easier for me if you post your blog url.

      2. Only pages using the OneNews page template will show up. So normal pages like about or contact shouldn’t show up.

      • ViiNT | April 23rd, 2009 at 5:10 pm

        How can I change the date on the “hover box” over the headlines of the feeds? It’s in a different timezone…

      • Genkisan | April 23rd, 2009 at 9:57 pm

        For timezone, in simplepie_wordpress_2.php replace

        if ($date = $item->get_date($onenews->option['dateformat']))

        with

        date_default_timezone_set(‘Europe/Athens’);
        if ($date = $item->get_date($onenews->option['dateformat']))

        Replace Europe/Athens with your own timezine

        • ViiNT | April 25th, 2009 at 3:40 am

          Thank you!!

          Just changed the timezone format but without success… Is it possible that some of my feed are correct and others don’t? or is this a problem with the original feeds?

          In fact only a couple of feeds appear with the correct time… the date is always correct…

          Thanks

        • Genkisan | April 25th, 2009 at 3:49 pm

          Possible as date/time implementation can be different in rss or atom format, even among versions within themselves.

    • All Nigerian Newspapers | September 6th, 2011 at 10:24 pm

      Yes , It is possible, I did just that with this plugin :

      http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/exclude-pages/

      Unlike what Gensaki said, all pages do show up, including the non-one news templates, but with this plugin, all will be cool.
      I love this template.

17. George | May 12th, 2009 at 4:41 am

    Hi,
    I am thinking of buying. Is the code encrypted?
    I might have to make modifications if necessary.
    Thanks

    • Genkisan | May 12th, 2009 at 2:12 pm

      No encrypted code, so feel free to make modifications.

18. Stu | May 24th, 2009 at 12:06 am

    I was wondering, is there a way you to select which feeds are dofollow and which are nofollow for the premium version? From the flash setup guide it looked as if it was a blanket all or nothing.. I was hoping to possibly make 1 dofollow with the rest nofollow? Thanks.

    • Genkisan | May 24th, 2009 at 7:42 am

      Try this hack. In simplepie_wordpress_2.php, line 2230, replace
      if ($onenews->option['nofollow'] == 'nofollow')
      with
      if ($onenews->option['nofollow'] == 'nofollow' && strpos($permalink,'http://replace_your_own_domain_here.com&#39 ===FALSE)

19. nomad | May 25th, 2009 at 8:33 am

    I am looking for alternatives to SimplePie NewsBlock that has serious memory issues. A page with a bit more than 70 feeds caused a memory error – 64MB was not enough. So now I wonder if OneNews can display 70 or 80 feeds on one page without such memory issues.

    • Genkisan | May 25th, 2009 at 2:17 pm

      Not sure but high chance same issue as OneNews is based also on SimplePie. The solution may be to throw more hardware at it.

      • nomad | May 26th, 2009 at 5:49 am

        Thanks for your answer. 64MB is not much for shared hosting? Maybe I can get my host to upgrade.

        I found out that it is possible to increase memory without editing the php-info file

        • Genkisan | May 26th, 2009 at 2:35 pm

          Worth a try if the host supports it.

20. Mark | June 23rd, 2009 at 10:01 pm

    How do I remove the tooltip? I dont want it as the text is too small!

    • Genkisan | June 24th, 2009 at 4:09 pm

      In footer, remove the following lines

      <script type="text/javascript">
      $(".itemtitle").tooltip({
      position: 'bottom center',
      offset: [0,18]
      });

      $(".mediaitemtitle").tooltip({
      position: 'bottom center',
      offset: [-15,0]
      });
      </script>

      • Jim | May 3rd, 2010 at 9:15 am

        Hey Genkisan,

        If I wanted to add my own content to each tooltip, do you have any ideas as to how to do this? For example, for each post in any given feed, I’d be able to include some notes of my own (that would popup on hover in the tooltip). Thanks much!

        Jim

        • Genkisan | May 4th, 2010 at 6:53 am

          You can add your content in templates\textrss.tmpl but the changes will apply to all the tooltips, not individually.

21. nomad | July 6th, 2009 at 9:35 pm

    Is it possible to have five instead of three columns per row?

    • Genkisan | July 7th, 2009 at 8:12 am

      Unfortunately no.

22. Dena MySo | August 9th, 2009 at 5:45 am

    Hello all…
    great site which has been pushing RSS news since 1999/2000, and they have hundreds of feeds by topics like cities, states, industries (US News). If you need a quick way to fill empty sub pages using OneNews (ie music, books, Los Angeles, etc.), this is great (and FREE): http://feeds.send2press.com .

23. Cyrus | September 3rd, 2009 at 6:31 am

    Hey,

    I have used your theme to sort of put all my websites in one place, creating a portal all around it. Even though I am only fetching 16 or so feeds, the performance is atrocious. Any suggestions on how to improve it (link provided in the website field)?

    • Genkisan | September 3rd, 2009 at 10:11 am

      Seems pretty fast on my side as I see that you have wp-super-cache enabled. The first load may be slower as it fetch the feeds from the various sites. You may also want to check out these caching plugins suggested by a user: http://dbzer0.com/blog/the-fastest-caching-combo-for-wordpress-am-i-in-a-cached-nirvana

      • Cyrus | September 3rd, 2009 at 11:43 am

        Thanks for the tip. Is there anyway in your opinion to make the fetching process more efficient? Let’s say I want to create an exact duplicate of AllTop with all those sites. Wouldn’t that take forever to load for the first time? I did install those 2 plugins that you suggested but the first timers will still see some lag (the reason I even care about this is some people make click away if the site doesn’t show up after 3 seconds. Right now it takes about that for the first load and is super fast after).

      • Genkisan | September 3rd, 2009 at 3:17 pm

        I’m afraid the response & transfer time between the servers is not within our control. But with caching, majority of the users will be seeing the cached pages (caching is done on a per page, not per user basis).

    • expatabroad | June 23rd, 2011 at 12:47 am

      Hi Cyrus/Genkisan,

      I’m also having the same issue – the pages are taking a long time to load, even though on a per-page basis there are not that many feeds. Any additional info on how to improve speed would be appreciated, as the performance is becoming an issue now….Thanks

      • Mark | June 24th, 2011 at 6:24 am

        Yes having the same problem used a mixture caching plugins but still slow on first load sometimes in excess of 10 seconds. If I find away around this will let you guys know

      • Genkisan | June 25th, 2011 at 8:18 am

        Install WP Super Cache.

      • Ralph | July 11th, 2011 at 3:01 am

24. Andrew | October 1st, 2009 at 8:55 pm

    Hi – is there a way to tweak OneNews so that feed items can be stored as posts? Thanks.

    • Genkisan | October 2nd, 2009 at 7:28 am

      Nope. You may want to try plugins like feedwordpress or wp-o-matic.

25. Mick | October 21st, 2009 at 3:59 am

    I am interested in adding Google Analytics tracking to the links generated by this theme. I’m hoping this will give me an indication of what the most popular links were that day. Any ideas on how I could add this to the theme, or is this already available?

    • Genkisan | October 21st, 2009 at 9:46 am

      Not sure about Google Analytics but you can try the WordPress Stats plugin to track outgoing links.

    • SEO Doctor | November 13th, 2009 at 2:59 am

      Don’t think you could track these links only internals. You could try crazyegg though. The heat maps will how you where people have clicked.

    • Bill | November 19th, 2009 at 11:49 am

      You can track outgoing links with google analytics. use just about any analytics plugin for WP and turn that feature on. BUT doing this will probably slow down the site if you have a lot of links.

27. qhung | October 31st, 2009 at 3:27 pm

    Just bought your theme and run it on my site. It’s a great theme indeed. One small question: How can I feed videos from MSN and Yahoo Videos. Inline video player doesn’t work with feeds with these. Thank you

    • Genkisan | October 31st, 2009 at 9:07 pm

      Only youtube, metacafe, dailymotion videos are supported for the video widget.

28. Bill | November 20th, 2009 at 1:39 am

    Are you taking suggestions to the next update? Here are a couple of general suggestions.

    I think load time is always an issue. I think the theme does pretty well, but there are always places to look. For example, I have taken all the javascript files and packed them. That reduced their overall file size by more than 60%. Are there other areas you could look for speed improvements?

    SEO issues … Here is my secret sauce that I have used to great affect on many many sites … in the top, for the site title, use an h1 tag, and for the description use an h2 tag, then for each of the widget titles (site feed title) use h3 tags. For the footer widgets I would use h4, as they are likely not to be keyword rich for the site content. those are the biggest seo issues that I would address.

    thanks for a very useful theme!

    • Genkisan | November 20th, 2009 at 8:01 am

      Using h1 tags for the site title would mean all pages will have the same h1 tags (Would be fine if in popurls mode but OneNews uses multiple pages in the alltop mode).

      Keeping the js files unpacked will make it easier for the users to edit. They may also not need some of the js functions and thus easier to leave the individual files out. They can then opt to pack the files with WP_Minify.

29. gethin | December 13th, 2009 at 12:25 am

    Can this package handle images and videos from different sources as shown on the demo page with little modification required? I need to be sure it can before investing my money it.

    • Genkisan | December 13th, 2009 at 7:30 am

      This theme supports
      for video: youtube, metacafe, dailymotion, yahoo
      for photo: flickr

      As different site build their feeds differently, it’s impossible to support all of them, especially for the videos. Perhaps you can show me your list and I can test which of them runs fine.

      • gethin | December 13th, 2009 at 10:51 pm

        I am looking at TED, FORA.tv, and images from almost every possible websites. The problem will be on the pops video and images. How customizable is your code?

      • Genkisan | December 14th, 2009 at 7:20 am

        TED and fora feed won’t work since they don’t provide enough info. I also can’t guarantee all images site will work. I guess this theme may not be what you are looking for.

30. Markus | December 16th, 2009 at 1:13 pm

    Hi Genkisan

    I bought your onenews six month ago and it’s my main pleasure to play with the theme since then. It’s really avesome to see what one can do with. I frequently comeback here to see what others saying and doing in their sites. It really helps a lot.

    Yestarday i’ve checked Karl’s “Kapitalismus.de” It’s really impressive. A small detal attracted me a lot which i don’t have in my theme. It shows page headers just after the logo. i.e ‘Kapitalismus.de/Dubai’ I wonder how to add such a code to header.php

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | December 16th, 2009 at 6:23 pm

      Try the single_post_title function

31. Josh | December 22nd, 2009 at 2:08 pm

    I only found this now while surfing and looking for wordpress themes. This is great! I think I would try this with one of my sites. Is this also a good way to gain new traffic? Does it offer good SEO capabilities? Won’t search engines penalize my site for duplicate contents?

    • Genkisan | December 22nd, 2009 at 5:05 pm

      It should be an easy source for extra traffic and will just look like a mashup of post titles to google so no issue of duplicated content.

32. Jeremy Barnish | January 6th, 2010 at 3:55 am

    Ive been using your theme and its fantastic! I’ve been getting some really frustrating results with feeds not displaying for hard to work out reasons. I thought the problem was feeds from yahoo pipes and that pipes was going down, so i switched to using the original google news rss feed instead, and now some of them are not displaying either.

    this one for example http://news.google.com/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=us&hl=en&q=DotNetNuke&cf=all&scoring=n&output=rss … does not return a result in a text rss widget. i tried putting it into xfruits and it worked! do you know why this is? http://www.xfruits.com/barnish/?id=87900

    also, i’m wondering if you have an documentation on some of the options in the http://mydomain.com/wp-admin/options.php … would adjusting any of these mean it might choke less?

      When I open the feed url in the browser, google says “We’re sorry… but your computer or network may be sending automated queries”. That may be the reason why it’s not showing, with google occasionally blocking your server & yahoo pipes, but not xfruits. It seems to work when I used a US proxy server with this url.

      If google is indeed blocking then I don’t think changing the values will help.

      You can find the simplepie docs at http://simplepie.org/wiki/plugins/wordpress/simplepie_plugin_for_wordpress/customization

    If you add a search option to OneNews would visitors be able search for different topics with in the feed links?

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | January 10th, 2010 at 9:01 pm

      Nope, as no posts are created, wordpress is unable to search within.

34. danielevi | January 10th, 2010 at 5:04 pm

    hey. i when i make photo feed the description is very short.
    how to let the feet to show more characters?

    tnx.

    • Genkisan | January 10th, 2010 at 9:02 pm

      The photorss widget does not display the description. If you like to display them, you can edit photorss.tmpl in the templates folder. Look for {ITEM_DATE}
      and replace it with
      {TRUNCATE_ITEM_DESCRIPTION}&lt;br /&gt;{ITEM_DATE}

35. Steve | January 15th, 2010 at 12:50 am

    Genkisan,I have a question about this theme before I purchase it. On an rss text feed or any feed I guess, does the software bring in every feed from the source or can I specify feeds with one or more key words? For example: I want to list feeds with info about the earthquake in Haiti. I want to look at feeds from google news, cnn, fox news, yada yada but only pick up news about Haiti. Can I do this or do I have to take all feed info?

    • Genkisan | January 15th, 2010 at 7:46 am

      The theme is unable to do keyword filtering. It will take the feed provided as is. However some feeds allows you to do filtering, which you can do before inputting into the theme e.g
      http://news.google.com/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=en_sg&hl=en&q=haiti+earthquake&cf=all&output=rss (google news feed for haiti earthquake). You can also try to mash feeds that does not support keywords with http://pipes.yahoo.com

36. Simon | January 16th, 2010 at 11:29 pm

    Hi, I purchased the theme and am very happy with it. I was trying to rebuild the templates and a lot of the original SimplePie template tags don’t work. For example I am trying to get the name of the site that published an rss feed by {FEED_AUTHOR_NAME} – it simply displays the tag.

    Are they deactivated or what is wrong? Thank you.

    • Genkisan | January 17th, 2010 at 9:41 am

      I commented them out for a little speed boost as they were not used. In simplepie_wordpress_2.php,
      line 1264, delete /*
      line 2158, delete */

      • Simon | January 17th, 2010 at 6:58 pm

        Thanks a lot! A great theme is one thing, but it is the great support that is completing this offer. Keep it up!

37. Justin Cook | February 3rd, 2010 at 1:22 am

    I want to purchase this several times actually! I’m going to need a couple licenses.

    However, there is one key feature missing for me. Are there any plans on making it editable by a user just like popurls.com

    I want the user to be able to edit what shows on his page so that he seees the feeds he wants to see.

    Please email me if you can.

    P.S. FANTASTIC JOB! Bib props to the creator

    • Genkisan | February 3rd, 2010 at 9:53 am

      Probably not any time soon. You may want to toy with the idea of using WPMU for multiusers environment. Or the next version of WP 3.0, where they will merge WP with WPMU.

38. sam | February 7th, 2010 at 2:27 pm

    wp 2.9.1

    when previewing the theme, I get a blank white screen. When activating the theme, The whole site is just a white blank page (even the admin section). I could only correct this by removing the onenewspremium theme folder and changing the theme.

    please advise

    • Genkisan | February 7th, 2010 at 3:34 pm

      Please check that all files in onenewspremium folder and subfolders have permission of 644/666, and folders have permission of 755/777.

      I encounter a similar ‘blank’ case, which is caused by the simplepie.inc file not accessible. You can see if the file is accessible by going to http://your-own-domain.com/wp-content/themes/onenewspremium/includes/simplepie.inc

      If the permission for the file is already 644/666 and still not viewable, you may want to check with your host as they may have some security settings in place.

      • sam | February 8th, 2010 at 1:48 am

        Still getting a blank screen.
        I am not clear about 755/777 which is it? 755 or 777?
        same with 644/666

        As for these security settings.

        I can view the file by going to the url you suggested (subbing my url of course).

        Thank you.

      • Genkisan | February 10th, 2010 at 7:38 am

        Some host works with 755, some with 777. So if 755 doesn’t work, try 777. Likewise for 644 and 666.

        Do you have any plugins using simplepie e.g SimplePie Core, SimplePie Plugin for WordPress, WP-o-Matic. Deactivate them as they conflict with OneNews theme.

39. Duende | February 16th, 2010 at 7:17 am

    Can this theme be used WITHIN a more dominant theme? For example, I’m using another premium theme for my site, but I’d like one of my categories (I have UFC, Dream, Boxing, Gear, Aggregation for example) to take visitors to a page done-up like this theme, aggregating all the news outlets for my visitors.

    If that was covered above I’m really sorry, I’m learning as fast as I can on this but my eyes get a little crossed reading through the above area, with all the @#$)(!*)! hah..

    Thanks for any help!

    • Genkisan | February 16th, 2010 at 8:53 am

      Not recommended as too much re-coding required.

      My suggestion is to install another copy of WP with OneNews in a subfolder e.g buzz. Then point your visitors to http://mma.bs/buzz/

40. Fer | February 16th, 2010 at 7:40 am

    Hi, as I said before, when possible I would share my website. So here it is http://www.enovedad.com/ , there are lot´s of things to do more, but it´s already indexing.

    For those who are having speed problems because of the calls to RSS, I have set up some cron jobs to execute hourly, also WP-SuperCache plugin, and well, I think it runs quite fast. I had a memory issue with the maximum number of feeds being called at same time, but I solved it doing various cron jobs.

    I hope can help somebody.

    • Michael | February 16th, 2010 at 11:32 am

      what cron jobs did you setup?

      • Fer | February 16th, 2010 at 4:42 pm

        You can find all the information here http://bit.ly/4WPaTD

        • Artur | March 27th, 2011 at 9:59 pm

          Hello,
          I’ve followed on your link and now is trying to set my cron job.
          A small question to you (or anybody who knows the answer).
          In the explanation part, I saw such a line:

          Create a file named update_simplepie_cache.php and enter this text: …

          then comes this

          SimplePieWP(array([your feed urls here]),

          So, how to separate different feed urls? whith comma or “;” ?

          I’m not a php-guru so please help me in this matter,
          Thanks

41. uncleya | February 17th, 2010 at 11:38 pm

    Do you plan to make design more colorful?

    • Genkisan | February 18th, 2010 at 8:10 am

      Not at the moment. Feel free to tweak the css to your liking.

42. felix zhang | March 8th, 2010 at 4:25 pm

    Hey,

    I’m so interested in this OneNews theme and wanna purchase it, but I have one point to ask you guys: How does OneNews support Chinese (zh-CN)?

    Many Thanks
    Felix

    • Genkisan | March 9th, 2010 at 7:42 am

      The theme is localization-ready and will auto display feeds in chinese if the feeds have chinese characters.

43. Matt | March 12th, 2010 at 7:22 am

    Is it possible to change it from 3 widgets per row to 2?

    • Genkisan | March 12th, 2010 at 4:27 pm

      Nope, as too much re-coding required.

44. Mk | March 14th, 2010 at 10:54 pm

    Hi there, I’m having trouble getting my 404 page to work. Any help?

    • Genkisan | March 18th, 2010 at 7:13 am

      You need to enable permalinks.

45. Justin Cook | March 22nd, 2010 at 10:50 pm

    Hello everyone,

    Just wanted to say you should buy this theme! I bought it a while back and it is awesome! I love it

    Thank you Genkisan for all the support when I first bought this theme. It was very appreciated!

    Bottom Line, this is a wonderful theme that goes above and beyone what you need it to do! So buy it!

46. Woogle | March 31st, 2010 at 11:25 pm

    hi
    How to change tooltip appearance ?
    Such as change font type and color and size
    thx

    • Genkisan | April 1st, 2010 at 6:50 am

      You can change the tooltip properties in style.css, .tooltip {} class

47. Jason Lander | April 27th, 2010 at 7:53 am

    Your theme is fantastic. I’ve been looking for a theme just like this and yours was quick & easy, and well worth the money. Thanks for putting it out here.

    One question. I’m trying to filter my feeds using Yahoo Pipes and I’m seeing very erratic behavior. Some feeds are only displaying a few items, others aren’t displaying any and others still are displaying items and then displaying fewer items later.

    I’m interested in knowing if anyone else has had a similar problem and if so, how to resolve this.

    Here is my site: http://healthcarestaffingreport.com/

    Any help is appreciated.

    • Jason Lander | April 28th, 2010 at 5:07 am

      I’ve resolved this. Apparently Shared personal items in Google Reader items don’t play well with Yahoo Pipes.

48. Antonio Hawthorne | May 18th, 2010 at 12:03 pm

    Is there a way to have text or photo rss sources load up in a popup window frame like the YouTube videos do?

    • Genkisan | May 19th, 2010 at 6:45 am

      I afraid not as the popup window frame only works for the videos.

49. Stephen | May 31st, 2010 at 6:05 am

    Genkisan,

    Is there a way to utilize Twitter feeds so that no mouseover displays and the actual embedded links are clickable?

    Perhaps a Twitter widget plugin for Twitter RSS feeds?

    Here is an example of what the Twitter RSS feeds look like:
    http://conservativevine.com/tcot

    • Genkisan | May 31st, 2010 at 7:45 am

      I afraid not as it will affect other widgets.

50. koushal | July 14th, 2010 at 6:50 pm

    hiii
    I am currently using this theme, I have setup RSS successfully, now I want to integrate Most popular and searching features for RSS as showing in http://alltop.com/. How can I do it ? Please help.
    Thankyou

    • Genkisan | July 15th, 2010 at 7:17 am

      For search, you can try google custom search. And google analytic s or wordpress stats for tracking the popular links.

      • koushal | July 17th, 2010 at 3:29 pm

        thanx for response,
        but I am still facing problem with google custom search, its showing the default search results from google.can you please tell me how to integrate this?

        • Genkisan | July 18th, 2010 at 6:11 am

          I have not try integrating the custom search myself. Perhaps you can try the google custom search plugin.

51. Mary Bouldin | August 16th, 2010 at 6:11 pm

    My client asks for a news aggregation site. I spend 25 hours in WordPress, then move to Joomla! for another 13 hours, and still can’t get what I want. I just want the content to display nicely. Frack–I am not even being picky!

    I don’t buy stuff I can do–ever, but obviously I can’t do this.

    I purchased this template, and got it up and running in no time at all (big hint for do-it-your-self folks, disable all former plugins you added to make your own feed work first). I had a bunch of stuff I had played with, and finally just made a new mySql database and reinstalled WordPress, and all of my install problems disappeared like magic.

    Anyway, just a few hours after downloading this template, I had a working aggregation site that I modified to match my own psd designed site with a few simple css modifications, and a few VERY minor changes in the z-index of the attached javascript files.

    Just a note to future designers, while the coding is beautiful for a functional site menu, any mistakes with the home page (as mentioned in the documentation on working with this template) are brutal and unforgiving. Either edit with great care, or make your own menu (as I did).

    Excellent job, designer guy.

52. greg | September 11th, 2010 at 12:02 am

    Hi,

    I am trying to find a way to consolidate and re-feed out the incoming feeds.

    so, if someone subscribed to my site feed, they would be subscribing to all the incoming feeds as one feed.

    any ideas?

    • greg | September 11th, 2010 at 12:16 am

      uh… nvm… just read most of the other posts
      I tried feedwordpress, and everything went blank.
      Will try wp-o-matic next.

      • greg | September 11th, 2010 at 12:40 am

        wp-o-matic isn’t compatible. Any idea what could be conflicting with feedwordpress?

      • Genkisan | September 11th, 2010 at 7:43 am

        Both OneNews and feedwordpress uses simplepie, hence the clash. To disable simplepie in OneNews, open functions.php in theme folder and change
        require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/includes/simplepie.inc’);
        to
        //require_once(dirname(__FILE__).’/includes/simplepie.inc’);

        Or you can bunch your feeds together with http://pipes.yahoo.com, which also relieve some load off your server.

        • greg | September 13th, 2010 at 9:09 pm

          Ok, great thanks!! will give it a try

53. Jason | September 22nd, 2010 at 12:23 pm

    Youtube released an updated player. How can I modify (videoRSS) to be wide screen and use this new look? Example: http://apiblog.youtube.com/2010/07/new-way-to-embed-youtube-videos.html

    • Genkisan | September 23rd, 2010 at 4:09 pm

      Seems like the new iframe code cannot be used in the theme. But you can change the video size by editing script.js.
      In line 76, chage the width and height

      vidstring =' height="350" width="425" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></center>';

      And change the width and height in line 23 and 24

      _vidPane.style.width='435px';
      _vidPane.style.height='372px';

      • Jason | September 24th, 2010 at 7:36 am

        Thanks, that worked perfectly! However, It is a little too far to the right and I can’t figure out how to change css so videoframe is always centered, but i like it better now, nonetheless, thanks again.

      • Genkisan | September 25th, 2010 at 7:34 am

        In line 119, change the 200 to say 300
        _vidPane.style.left=((document.body.clientWidth/2)-300)+’px’;

54. Nik | November 4th, 2010 at 1:54 am

    Hi, can this theme use affiliates feeds instead of RSS?

    • Genkisan | November 4th, 2010 at 4:47 pm

      The affiliate feeds will have to be in rss format.

55. MyK | November 6th, 2010 at 1:57 am

    Hi, how I can make to post everyday with the same template like my regular page design/generated with widgets… let’s say .. an link archive with all news per day. I tray to “transform” file cache from supercache in to post. I’m not satisfy with the results. I tray also WPRobot and similar plugin ..works ok but show only one news/post ..and i want all news like in my subpages( http://netreporter.ro )in one post/day.some help please.

    • Genkisan | November 6th, 2010 at 7:44 am

      Sorry but I don’t have a solution to daily archival. Unless you want to do it manually like the way you did with the supercache. You can rename daily each supercached index.html to say index20101106.html and link direct to it from a post.

      • MyK | November 6th, 2010 at 8:13 am

        thanks, i know how i can do automatic name changes from supercache files but i don’t know how i can do automatic generated post every day and pointed/link to this files.

      • Genkisan | November 6th, 2010 at 8:59 pm

        How do you do the auto renaming?

        • MyK | November 7th, 2010 at 1:07 am

          Run in crontab a small php script to rename downloaded files parameter for wget.The rename is done by wget. can be done also with other script to rename after download.

          I deleted my script but i start from this bash(post#4):
          http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1099378
          and this
          http://serverfault.com/questions/167083/wget-specify-directory-and-rename-the-file

          In the next 3 day i’m busy but i will return with the script rebuilt if you think we can import in wordpress automatic this files like pages or post(prefered). I tray also “import html pages” plugin but something not work.I will digg next week.

        • Genkisan | November 8th, 2010 at 10:12 am

          Why not create a post daily that just link to these renamed html files. You probably need to create a wp cron job to run wp_insert_post.

56. mike | December 20th, 2010 at 10:58 pm

    Hi

    I seem to be too stupid to figure out how to change the order of the pages in the menu bar – it’s probably dead simple – but right now I can’t see it – any help appreciated

57. Mark Boudreau | December 21st, 2010 at 4:27 am

    Is it possible to set up the One News theme as a sub-section of my current WordPress-powered site? (i.e. It would be a sub-page on the site labeled “news”).

    Thanks in advance!

    • Genkisan | December 21st, 2010 at 8:35 am

      Integrating your current theme with OneNews will not be easy. You can install another copy of WordPress in a subdirectory named “news” and activate OneNews there.Or run WordPress in Multisite mode.

      • Colin Boyd | June 2nd, 2011 at 10:45 pm

        I’ve just installed wordpress multisite and upgraded to the latest version and it doesn;t recognise the one news theme in the Appearance section

        • Genkisan | June 4th, 2011 at 8:36 am

          Should work as this site is running on multisite too. Remember to go to Network Admin > Themes and Network Enable the theme.

58. Genkisan | January 3rd, 2011 at 3:16 pm

    Just a comment to mark the release of OneNews version 3.0.

    • WPSPY | January 4th, 2011 at 12:53 am

      Thanks for the new release.
      It would have been great if it had the option to have the favicons.

      • Genkisan | January 4th, 2011 at 9:05 am

        You can use the “Logo Url” field in the widgets.

        • WPSPY | January 4th, 2011 at 6:49 pm

          That’s pain to get another url for each one. Maybe in the next version give option to automatically grab it.
          And also a more links.
          It has really improved a lot

        • Genkisan | January 5th, 2011 at 8:42 am

          Not all favicon are found in the root as favicon.ico. Some are in subdirectories and some may even be in png format. It will be inefficient to scrape each site just to get the right path and file.

        • Jovany | July 17th, 2011 at 12:14 pm

          I beg to differ. If you take the templatic.com approach for their theme aggregator, you will see that they fetch the favicon on the title line.

        • Genkisan | July 18th, 2011 at 8:28 am

          If you look at their demo, some of the favicons are not showing. So it’s not a fail-safe method.

        • Jovany | July 24th, 2011 at 5:31 pm

          http://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=foxnews.com (replace foxnews.com with your target domain) is a search query that is very reliable at this time to extract favicons.
          Cheers

        • Genkisan | July 25th, 2011 at 9:07 am

          Good find but still not a failsafe way (see http://www.google.com/s2/favicons?domain=templatic.com). But you can still use the google url in the Logo Url field for convenience.

      • Jovany | July 25th, 2011 at 10:28 am

        I see the wisdom of your decision to leave it up webmasters to link to logos or favicons. People are just lazy when it comes to searching thousands of sites.
        I could easily get your favicon with http://www.getfavicon.org/

    • Mark | January 4th, 2011 at 1:58 am

      Thanks for the update, there are some great new features in there, very useful!

      I have a couple of issues that maybe there is a work around.

      1. The non-moving tooltip popup is nice/better, but it also means that when you scroll down a page the links below the current link the user is on, is no longer active, without rolling off the popup to the left side. On popurls they have a similar setup, but the popup box is offset downward by a few pixels so that the user can scroll down through links. Can you explain how to offset the popup box downward?

      2. I am utilizing the black/white switcher and font resize, is there code somewhere I can re-activate this. Font size not so important, but black/white more so.

      Thanks!

      • Genkisan | January 4th, 2011 at 9:21 am

        1. In footer.php, line 80. offset: [0,18]
        where offset: [y,x]

        2. Having rewritten the code, I’m afraid there’s no easy way to reactivate it. You can take a look at the script used in v2.5 at http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex9/stylesheetswitcher.htm. You will also need to duplicate the style.css and change the colors (instead of using the new styleplus.css).

59. OJ | January 6th, 2011 at 2:20 pm

    Hi,
    How do I add the “share this” links for each article within the rss widget? I want it to look like you have it on the Onenews demo site.

    Thanks.

    • Genkisan | January 6th, 2011 at 7:58 pm

      Go to WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Settings > Social Icons in Tooltip.

60. Rain | January 7th, 2011 at 9:28 am

    Great update! Thanks! Been waiting for that dropdown subtmenu on the navigation/header. However, I can’t seem to find the correct button to activate it. I’ve already added subpages to parent pages but they aren’t automatically showing up on the menu navigation (unlike your “Gadgets” with dropdown arrow on your sample/theme page). Please help.

    • Genkisan | January 7th, 2011 at 4:27 pm

      Actually you don’t need to add the subpages. Go to Appearance > Menus and create your menu (watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkuHbkaieZ4). Btw the dropdown arrow does not appear automatically. You can copy and paste this symbol ▼ here.

    Hi Genkisan,

    First off greetings from Switzerland and compliments on your fine script. I bought the pro version last week and I got it up and running without any problems right out the box.

    However, I have a question which you may be able to help with. I have noticed that on the posts the date only appears on the one post, the one at the top of the page after the feeds have been pulled. all subsequent posts have no date or time stamp, until one gets to the posts for the day before. Is this normal? I would like each posted created to show the time and the date.

    many thanks in advance for any assistance you can give me regarding this matter.

    best,

    Paul

    • Genkisan | January 14th, 2011 at 9:47 am

      Thanks for catching the bug. In index.php and search.php, please find
      the_date()
      and replace with
      echo get_the_date()

      • Paul | January 14th, 2011 at 9:34 pm

        Excellent! Thanks!
        Here is the code I used for the time and the date on the posts:

        I may have a question on the styles sheets later.. I’ll check this thread first though.

        Thanks once again for the quick reply. Much appreciated.

        Paul.

        • Paul | January 17th, 2011 at 9:10 pm

          Hi Genkisan,

          A quick question please. Is it possible to have one feed across three columns? Is there something I can do with the code to make it possible.

          Many thanks,

          Paul

        • Genkisan | January 18th, 2011 at 7:18 am

          Try these code in the OneNews HTML widget.

          <h2><a href="http://ericulous.com">Ericulous</a></h2&gt;
          <ul style="width:930px;">
          <?php
          echo SimplePieWP('http://ericulous.com/feed/', array(
          'items' => 8,
          'show_thumbnail' => FALSE,
          'template' => 'textrss',
          ));
          ?>
          </ul>

          Or maybe

          <h2><a href="http://ericulous.com">Ericulous</a></h2&gt;
          <ul style="width:930px;">
          <?php
          echo SimplePieWP('http://ericulous.com/feed/', array(
          'items' => 8,
          'show_thumbnail' => TRUE,
          'template' => 'textrss_summary',
          ));
          ?>
          </ul>

        • Paul | January 19th, 2011 at 3:04 am

          Not quite what I had in mind. I was after a single feed cascading down over three columns rather than just the one.

          thanks.

        • Genkisan | January 20th, 2011 at 6:54 am

          You can use yahoo pipes, to split the feed.

62. Jim | January 21st, 2011 at 12:06 am

    Hi, i would like to display the full titles in OneNews text RSS widget and disable the restriction of specified number of characters. Can you please help me with this?

    • Genkisan | January 21st, 2011 at 4:15 pm

      To display full titles, open style.css and remove 2 instances of
      height: 1.5em;
      overflow: hidden;

      To display full content, go to WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Settings,
      change “Description Length in Tooltip” to a large number e.g 999999

63. genbushi | January 21st, 2011 at 11:46 pm

    Ack…. Deleted a Page (yeah, I didn’t read everything LOL) and now subsequent new Pages do not show up in Widget area…

    Is there a way recover the functionality ?

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | January 22nd, 2011 at 6:35 am

      Unfortunately no. You will have to delete the subsequent pages (or maybe all the onenews pages).

      • genbushi | January 22nd, 2011 at 6:48 am

        Cool, thanks for the follow-up… what I get for being an idiot and not RTFM

        Great Work btw !

64. Eifonso | January 23rd, 2011 at 2:27 am

    Hi

    Possibility to have the option to make pages without sidebar.

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | January 25th, 2011 at 9:02 am

      A workaround is to create a new page with the OneNews template. Then use the OneNews HTML widget for content on that page.

65. Paul | January 26th, 2011 at 8:43 pm

    Hi Genkisan.

    Fella, this is a great theme and I’m using it to put together a pretty good news site. However, there are some issues you may be able to help me with.

    Plugins:

    This theme is quite temperamental when used in conjunction with some plugins.

    Just to give you an idea how I have mine set up.

    I am using the Onenews theme as the index.

    For the blog posts I am aggregating news items as posts using Feedwordpress.

    Issue 1)

    At the start both worked well together then all of a sudden when adding rss feeds to the front page using the textrss they wouldn’t work. When I switched off feedpress they did. My workaround is that when I need to add a new feed using the textrss widget I turn off Feedwordpress, add the feed then turn it back on again. (i’m ok with this for now)!

    Issue 2) IMPORTANT!

    Tooltip share icons/services

    This thirdparty add service you have built in is overkill. Too many share it services for me and others I would guess. Also, it adds unnecessary page loading time on the site. Also, when a visitor tweets one my links it will say ‘via addthis’. I have no interest in promoting that site via my content!

    I would like to add the following services only on mine (and not via Addthis).

    Facebook
    Twitter
    Digg
    Delicious
    Stumbleupon

    Can you show me how to do that in the textrss.tmpl file please?

    All for now. I hope you can help me with social sharing issue. If so, I can launch my new site by Friday. I will send you a link to check out once it is live.

    Best regards from Switzerland and once again, thanks fro a super theme!

    Paul.

    • Genkisan | January 28th, 2011 at 8:43 am

      The feedwordpress plugin is kinda complicated for me to understand. I can only guess the cause is due to both using simplepie class.

      You can replace the addthis code with your own services in includes/simplepie_wordpress_2.php line2248-2253.

66. jubalince | February 3rd, 2011 at 11:21 am

    How can I have the page name appear above the feeds? For example, if I have a page called “sports”, with feeds from different sports websites, how can I have the word “Sports” appear above the feed results (so users know what topic they are reading about)?

    Thanks!

    • Genkisan | February 4th, 2011 at 7:59 am

      You can use the OneNews HTML widget.

67. Jack | February 3rd, 2011 at 8:50 pm

    Can I place advertising banners and blocks in theme, if so, how?

    • Genkisan | February 4th, 2011 at 8:10 am

      You can use the OneNews HTML widget to display full width banners. Or you can use the “Content to display before feed” & “Content to display after feed” fields in the OneNews textRSS widget.

68. Daniel Decker | February 6th, 2011 at 10:35 am

    Might be a silly question but how can I change the hover color on the top menu? I have looked and looked in the CSS file and can’t seem to find anything.

    Thanks.

    • Genkisan | February 7th, 2011 at 8:13 am

      You can change the background-color in the following classes.
      .top-menu-container ul.menu li a:hover { border:none; background-color:#f00; }
      .top-menu-container ul.menu li.current-menu-item a { border:none; background-color:#f00; }
      .top-menu-container ul.menu li.current_page_item a { border:none; background-color:#f00; }

69. Ricardo M. | February 6th, 2011 at 12:11 pm

    Hello,
    Ijust bought this template too.
    I want to display most popular stories, as showing in http://alltop.com

    I also would like to add a “more” button on each column of Textrss widget, like in this site: http://web20.originalsignal.com/

    Next version update could contain an Contact and Full Width Template Page
    Regards,

    • Genkisan | February 7th, 2011 at 9:38 am

      Hot/Popular Links with Titles hack (may not be able to retrieve title for some links)
      First install and activate Google Stats plugin.
      Then add the following code to “Content to display after feed” field in a textRSS widget.

      <?php if ( function_exists('stats_get_csv') && $top_posts = stats_get_csv('clicks', 'days=7&limit=8') ) : ?>
      <h2>Popular Links</h2>
      <ul class="alphabets">
      <?php foreach ( $top_posts as $p ) : ?>
      <?php
      $file = file($p['click']);
      $file = implode('',$file);
      $file = str_replace(array("\r", "\r\n", "\n"),'',$file);
      if(preg_match("/<title.*>(.*)<\/title>/iU",$file,$m))
      $title = $m[1];
      else
      $title = $p['click'];
      ?>
      <li><a class="itemtitle_alphabets" style="overflow:hidden" target="_blank" href="<?php echo $p['click']; ?>"><?php echo $title; ?></a></li>
      <?php endforeach; ?>
      </ul>
      <?php endif; ?>

      KIV in next version for full width page and more button.

70. Ricardo | February 11th, 2011 at 10:51 am

    I would like to add a “more” button on each column of Textrss widget, like in this site: http://web20.originalsignal.com/

    For example: I will show 7 headlines, and clicking on button “more” it will show 15 headlines.

    Regards,

    • Genkisan | February 12th, 2011 at 8:22 am

      Should be in the next version, hopefully.

71. Thomas | February 12th, 2011 at 1:30 pm

    This is absolutely perfect. I’m using it for my UFO site at http://MOST.RECENTUFOSIGHTING.COM (obviously a subdomain of RecentUFOsighting.com) – and my visitors love it! Thank you!

    I’m curious – I hope I didn’t miss it in the above comments, but is there a way to show a Twitter feed or Real-time discussion via Google? I tried various ways, creating a Google Alert for the RT discussions, and it didn’t work. And Twitter, I can’t find a way to subscribe to a #UFO tag, or a person’s feed (not my own).

    Any help on either of those would be awesome. Thank you again, theme author!

    Thomas @ 99niches (geez, maybe I should buy another license and use it over at 99niches.com too…)

    • Thomas | February 12th, 2011 at 1:52 pm

      Genkisan, would you be available for hire to do a Twitter, Facebook Like or Share, and StumbleUpon icon in place of the addthis icon?

    • Genkisan | February 13th, 2011 at 8:56 am

      Try these
      http://www.google.com/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=en_sg&hl=en&q=ufo&cf=all&output=rss
      http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=ufo

    we’re having a weird thing happen — for some reason the flickr images, when clicked, aren’t taking us to a new window and flickr page on our PC. It works on Mac (Chrome, Safari, Opera & Firefox) but not on IE 7. Is there something we can do to make sure the flickr thumbnails work for everyone? thanks!

    • Genkisan | February 15th, 2011 at 8:31 am

      Do you see the same issue with the flickr images on my demo blog?
      http://ericulous.com/demo/

      Mind sharing the flickr feed you are using?

      • imotorlist | February 15th, 2011 at 11:14 am

        hello!
        Thanks so much for your reply. The feed we’re using is from Flickr, for “classic cars”. We just upgraded to IE8 on the PC and it is working fine. Must be something with IE7.

73. Richard Dennis | February 18th, 2011 at 9:29 am

    Hello Sir,

    I finally purchased your theme and I must say, I like it, real smooth.

    I have a couple of questions but may hire you for some work.

    1. I hate the TAGS that appear on the right hand side bottom, how do I remove that ?

    2. I have a list of CATEGORIES ( used from my previous theme), they too appear at the bottom of the page. The last theme used, the categories appear on the top bar, how can I make this happen and what can I do alternatively.

    thank you

    • Genkisan | February 22nd, 2011 at 8:14 am

      1. In index.php and single.php, delete the following lines

      <?php
      $tags_list = get_the_tag_list( '', ', ' );
      if ( $tags_list )
      printf( __( '<strong>Tags</strong> %s<br />', 'onenews' ), $tags_list );
      ?>

      2. I assume you like the categories to appear above the divider line. In index.php and single.php, cut the following line

      <div class="postcats"><?php printf( __( 'Filed In %s', 'onenews' ), get_the_category_list( ', ' ) ); ?></div>

      and paste it under the <h2> tag as below

      <h2 class="posttitle"><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( 'Permalink to %s', 'onenews' ), the_title_attribute( 'echo=0' ) ); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
      <div class="postcats"><?php printf( __( 'Filed In %s', 'onenews' ), get_the_category_list( ', ' ) ); ?></div>

    • Genkisan | February 24th, 2011 at 8:18 am

      Unfortunately that will require major modifications of the theme.

    Could you pls point out what wrong with this? Also, would appreciate if you could inform if it is possible to chnage the look n feel i.e. colours, backgrounds, fonts etc and how can it be done.

    Thanx in advance.

      Thanx

    • Genkisan | February 25th, 2011 at 8:01 am

      404 error – probably need to enable permalink

      Look and feel – edit style.css

      Create header menu – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkuHbkaieZ4

      Social media icons – Login to WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Settings (enter url for the respective header icons url).

76. Roseanne Souza | February 26th, 2011 at 5:34 am

    Hi,
    Love your OneNews Template and it’s working great. Just having one problem. Can’t get new pages to nest under a parent. They just don’t show up. What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks.

    • Genkisan | February 26th, 2011 at 6:44 am

      If you are referring to the top menu, you can use the Custom Menus (WP-Admin > Appearance > Menus)(Watch http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WkuHbkaieZ4)

77. Richard Dennis | February 28th, 2011 at 2:34 am

    Hello,

    I continue to enhance the theme you created.

    I have a few more questions:

    1. On your demo, you were able to add an Ad next to your RSS Feed
    ,how can I do that?

    2. referring to your Dark Demo Theme again, how were you able to stack the GOOGLE NEWS and create the Ad at the end.

    3. How do I create the TAGS at the end of your Dark Demo in to the top 25 tags and maintain the same size font for each tag despite the usages for the tags.

    I refer to the demo since it does not require additional coding.

    • Genkisan | February 28th, 2011 at 8:00 am

      1 & 2: Insert your ad code to the “Content to display before feed” or “Content to display after feed” fields in the OneNews textRSS widget.

      3. In footer.php, edit wp_tag_cloud function (see documentation). Or try this plugin.

78. Sam | March 4th, 2011 at 4:32 am

    Hello, nice job!
    I wander if I can shorten the Feed description. Or, vice verse, how can I enlarge the Feed description text.
    Thanks in advance

    • Genkisan | March 4th, 2011 at 2:51 pm

      Login to WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Settings and set the “Description Length in Tooltip”.

      In style.css, change the .tooltip font-size.

79. Jasmine | March 6th, 2011 at 9:31 pm

    Hi thanks for the great theme, we are using it here: baystatebuzz.com Would like to know if under the blog function, I can reduce the post summary to just the headline and the comment “bubble” so I can display more posts using less real estate?

    Dear Genkisan,
    A couple of days ago I bought your product and installed at http://armrss.com

    Since now, I had no problem with installing and customizing of onenews.

    The only question remains is about the publication time matters (e.g., 2 hours ago, 7 Mar 11, 9:39am). Is it possible to translate “2 hours ago” and similar statements, and, if yes, in which files should I looking for the code.

    Thanks again for excellent product and sustainable support.

    • Genkisan | March 8th, 2011 at 6:40 am

      You can translate the following terms in functions.php
      - min ago
      - mins ago
      - hour ago
      - hours ago
      - day ago
      - days ago

    can the vertical lines be moved so they don’t go straight through the ads of the 728 x 90 ads thereby giving me more room for my 300 x 250 ads.

    • Genkisan | March 12th, 2011 at 9:09 am

      Play around with width settings to suit your need. In style.css,

      replace all 580px with 740px

      and replace

      #sidebar {
      float: left;
      margin: 0 0 15px 50px;
      width: 300px;
      color: #000;
      }

      with

      #sidebar {
      float: left;
      margin: 0 0 15px 50px;
      width: 140px;
      color: #000;
      }

      and replace

      background: transparent url(images/bg_post.png) repeat-y 605px top;

      with

        I no longer use the side bar anything I still though continue to use the 728 x 90 ads.. how do I remove the vertical lines that run through the blog posting?

      • Genkisan | March 19th, 2011 at 8:14 am

        Delete “background: transparent url(images/bg_post.png) repeat-y 605px top;”

    Hello everyone,

    Just wanted to say you should buy this theme! I bought it a while back and it is awesome! I love it

    Thank you Genkisan for all the support when I first bought this theme. It was very appreciated!

    Bottom Line, this is a wonderful theme that goes above and beyone what you need it to do! So buy it!

85. Richard Dennis | March 17th, 2011 at 10:33 pm

    Genkisan,

    We’ve incorporated some of the changes requested on this site on a test server. We have a few more request.

    I work for Bloomberg Research (part of Bloomberg LP) I’ve look at your product very closely and we LOVE it. I have it running on my test web site , I am however interested in three things:

    1. When will you upgrade the product – we don’t what to duplicate your efforts.

    2. We will purchase the Enterprise product but we need to know how is it possible copy the Text/Video/Photo RSS feeds files from one site to another site without breaking it.(basically clone the site)

    3. We would like to change the background color to solid black, how do we make that change?

    thanks,

    You have an absolute great product.

    Richard

    • Genkisan | March 18th, 2011 at 8:46 am

      1. I don’t have a timeline but let’s put it at 2-3 months. Probably just a minor upgrade.

      2. The settings should be intact. See Moving WordPress guide.

      3. In styleplus.css, change
      background-color: #1f1f1f;
      to
      background-color: #000;

      • Richard Dennis | March 18th, 2011 at 10:50 am

        Thanks for the reply..

        Does your theme write to the database… I am asking because I just want to move your theme folder from one location to another location, hoping things will work with slight modification.

        thanks again.

      • Genkisan | March 19th, 2011 at 8:13 am

        You may need to reset the theme path. See WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Guide, under “Error: Cache directory is not writable”.

86. OJ | March 24th, 2011 at 10:38 pm

    Hi,
    What will happen (good or bad) If you disable simple pie in onenews to be able to use feedworpress plugin? Will this affect the way onenews works in any way?

    • Genkisan | March 25th, 2011 at 9:37 am

      Not really sure. I guess the only way to find out is to try it out.

      • OJ | March 25th, 2011 at 9:44 am

        What is simplepie used for in Onenews? The reason I ask is because I want the theme to work properly. If I add “//” like you advised Greg above, will the theme stop working?

      • Genkisan | March 26th, 2011 at 8:20 am

        Simplepie is used for fetching feeds in both Onenews and FWP. It’s an essential component for both when used alone. Give it a try to see if both will work together with or without the hack. You can always undo later.

87. Artur | March 27th, 2011 at 10:09 pm

    Hello,
    I’ve followed on one of commenter who suggested to add a cron job described at http://simplepie.org/wiki/tutorial/setting_up_a_cron_job_with_simplepie

    A small question to you (or anybody who knows the answer).
    In the explanation part, I saw such a line:

    Create a file named update_simplepie_cache.php and enter this text: …

    then comes this
    …
    SimplePieWP(array([your feed urls here]),
    …

    So, how to separate different feed urls from each other? With comma or “;” ? How?

    I’m not a php-guru so please help me in this matter,
    Thanks

    • Artur | March 27th, 2011 at 10:55 pm

      Or, maybe a detailed instruction please.

      • Artur | March 27th, 2011 at 11:00 pm

        For, example, in the last stage, where should I set my cache duration, in my new-created update_simplepie_cache.php or /includes/simplepie_wordpress_2.php

        Thank you

        • Genkisan | March 28th, 2011 at 7:38 am

          Sorry but I’m not familiar with the cron setup.

88. Steven | March 29th, 2011 at 10:49 am

    I noticed something after getting everything installed and setup. The theme doesn’t function well with mobile apps (WP Touch Pro, Wapple, etc). Do you know if there’s a way to get a mobile version online so the feeds are easily displayed on an iPhone or Android, etc? Similar to how alltop.com/m is set up.

    Thanks for your help

    • Genkisan | March 30th, 2011 at 7:25 am

      I will be trying to make the next version mobile-friendly but no promises.

      • Steven | March 30th, 2011 at 10:52 am

        Thanks for getting back to me! I’m really enjoying the theme so far. No worries if a mobile-friendly version doesn’t make the next update. I was just curious if I missed a setting or something.

        Take Care

      • Mark | April 15th, 2011 at 8:40 pm

        This theme is fantastic. I will be utilizing it for a brand new project. Mobile support is a definite must these days. Genkisan, would your plans be to offer native mobile support or compatibility with something like the plugin WP Touch?

      • Genkisan | April 18th, 2011 at 8:45 am

        I tested some of the mobile plugins and it proved more difficult than I expected. So I’m unable to confirm if it will be mobile friendly at this point of time.

        • Mark | April 19th, 2011 at 11:39 pm

          Would it be possible to at least have the site RSS feed to include not just the blog content but the aggregated sources in the One News Widgets as well? That way somebody could at least use a mobile RSS Reader to check out all the latest headlines.

        • Genkisan | April 20th, 2011 at 8:32 am

          Unfortunately no. However you can combine all of your feeds using yahoo pipes and use the generated feed as your rss feed.

        • Mark | May 20th, 2011 at 1:00 am

          Have you tested the Wapple mobile plugin? I just found out about it:

          http://mobilewebjunkie.com/wordpress-mobile-plugin-install-guide-and-faq/

        • Genkisan | May 21st, 2011 at 8:37 am

          Yup, have tried most of the mobile plugins in the wp.org directory.

        • Mark | June 21st, 2011 at 9:42 pm

          I have been playing around with the mobile issue and the theme works fine on the iPad but is wonky on an iPhone or Android. The only solution that I can see that works (at this time) is by setting up a mobile page and basically listing the RSS feeds as headlines in the body as a regular blog. This way people who access the mobile page will get a linear view of all the feeds with no formatting, just like regular blog posts.

          If anybody has any other ideas I would love to hear them!

89. Artur | March 30th, 2011 at 4:38 am

    Tooltip is fixed by a JS in footer.php.

    $(“.itemtitle”).tooltip({
    position: ‘bottom center’,
    offset: [0,18]
    });

    However, I’d like to make it moveable by dragging the hover-pointer similar to alltop.

    Please help me in this matter.

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | March 30th, 2011 at 7:29 am

      Unfortunately the script does not support moving tooltip.

90. Richard Dennis | March 31st, 2011 at 12:27 am

    Can you tell me if you have a similar widget (or create a similar widget) like alphabet List for category list. I would like to create a category list that I could put in the middle of my long list of feeds so that users do not have to scroll all the way to the bottom of the page. I prefer not to create a menu item.

    Is there a way this could be created?

    Richard

    • Genkisan | March 31st, 2011 at 6:38 am

      If you dun mind hardcoding, you can modify the alphabet html source below and put it into the OneNews HTML widget.

      <div class="newsblock">
      <div style="clear:both"></div>
      <h2>test</h2>
      <ul>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      </ul>
      </div>

      <div class="newsblock">
      <div style="clear:both"></div>
      <h2>test</h2>
      <ul>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      </ul>
      </div>

      <div class="newsblock">
      <div style="clear:both"></div>
      <h2>test</h2>
      <ul>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
      </ul>
      </div>

91. gnews | April 1st, 2011 at 1:55 pm

    Hi I’d love to find archive.php page on your theme but i can’t find where i can find the page?

    • Genkisan | April 2nd, 2011 at 6:22 am

      The theme does not have a archive.php page. You can check out these plugins to create one.

92. HawtHeels | April 2nd, 2011 at 4:18 pm

    Hello, just wondering if it would be possible to integrate a url shortner to track how many links are clicked? Similar to bit.ly or adf.ly?

    • Genkisan | April 4th, 2011 at 7:30 am

      Unfortunately there’s no easy way to integrate them.

93. whateverfree.com | April 4th, 2011 at 10:22 pm

    can I have sample data of demo site if I purchase your theme, ??

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | April 6th, 2011 at 7:28 am

      Unfortunately not possible as widgets data are not easily transferable.

94. Cool Pictures | April 5th, 2011 at 8:26 pm

    Hello Genkisan,

    Sorry, one little question:
    Is it possible to change a background color of a theme?

    Regards,
    Igor.

    • Genkisan | April 6th, 2011 at 7:34 am

      In style.css, add background-color: #1f1f1f; to the body class (see styleplus.css for reference).

95. Richard Dennis | April 7th, 2011 at 7:51 am

    Hello,

    I’m looking for a plug in that will allow me to create a mailing list and send out information through the email.

    I should be able to incorporate this plug in the ONENEWS theme

    • Genkisan | April 8th, 2011 at 7:45 am

      I’ve only used the feedburner service for mailing list though it only send out updates on blog posts. Simply use any mailing list plugin that supports insertion of the form through php. Then you can insert the php code into the “Content to display…” fields in the OneNews textRSS widget.

      • Richard Dennis | April 9th, 2011 at 8:52 am

        How do I add the FEEDBURNER under the SEARCH BOX like the way you have it. I want to add:

        Feed Readers | Subscribe Feed | Subscribe Email

        thanks

      • Genkisan | April 11th, 2011 at 7:24 am

        In header.php, insert the html code after the rss icon link.

        • Richard Dennis | April 12th, 2011 at 7:49 am

          Genkisan,

          I understand you are busy.
          Please re-read my request and please look at this code.
          I thank you for your support but ask that you carefully read the question before responding. Your response could reflect major changes on my website, I’m not interested in changing

          Look at the top of your ericulous site. the code found below DOES NOT resemble the top right side of your web site. I am asking for code that resembles your top right hand side code:

          This the code provided by FEEDBURNER
          Enter your email address:Delivered by FeedBurner

          Subscribe to Blog News Service by Email

        • Genkisan | April 13th, 2011 at 8:22 am

          As I said, simply paste that code into header.php. Or just modify my code accordingly like replacing your id. In header.php, find

          <a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Subscribe to Feed', 'onenews' ); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/icon_rss.png" alt="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Subscribe to Feed', 'onenews' ); ?>" /></a>

          and below add

          <br />
          <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/ericulous" title="Subscribe Feed" rel="nofollow"><img src="http:%2f%2ffeeds.feedburner.com/~fc/ericulous?bg=191919&amp;fg=FFFFFF&amp;anim=1" height="26" width="88" style="border:0;vertical-align:middle;border-top:5px solid #262626;" alt="Feed Readers" /></a>
          | <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/ericulous" title="Subscribe Feed" rel="nofollow">Subscribe Feed</a> |
          <a href="http://feedburner.google.com/fb/a/mailverify?uri=ericulous&amp;loc=en_US" title="Subscribe Email" rel="nofollow">Subscribe Email</a>

          3 links may be too long to fit so you may have to do with 2. The feed readers code is from feedburner’s FeedCount widget.

          I hope you understand that the theme does not come with the customization. However I have provided general guidance so far but don’t expect spoonfeeding. If you are going to need more such customization, it would be better to get someone good with wordpress. He will be able to do the changes offline before deploying.

96. Kris | April 9th, 2011 at 8:06 pm

    I would like to create a new page to be able to present my blog posts but my when I do this my blog posts go to the “home” page. I have set the homepage up with the onenews template so to not to be my blog page.

    Any suggestions on how I do this?

    Thanks

    • Genkisan | April 11th, 2011 at 7:16 am

      You can use the category link to present your blog posts.

    Hello

    How do I create this from popurls.com ?
    http://popurls.com/do/ar/he format

    Plus how do i create the format for POPURLS QUICKIES

    • Genkisan | April 13th, 2011 at 9:22 am

      There are no equivalents of those 2 features in OneNews and are major programming projects by themselves.

98. Kevin | April 14th, 2011 at 7:21 am

    Hi Genkisan,

    Would it speed up Onenews’ grabbing of the feeds, if I were to take all the feeds and burn them with Feedburner and then point the Onenews widgets to the FB feeds?

    (assuming that this could work, as FB has more powerful servers, feed pushing power, and regular caching etc)

    • Genkisan | April 14th, 2011 at 8:31 am

      Possible. No harm testing it out.

99. altın çilek | April 15th, 2011 at 4:22 am

    ıs there a way to set the code so that the first bar doesn’t open automatically. (So when you open the site all the bars collapsed?

    • Genkisan | April 15th, 2011 at 9:24 am

      Unfortunately no.

100. phil | April 19th, 2011 at 7:22 pm

     Hi is it possible to have three columns for some of the widgets. E.g three PAGE widgets in one row. Or three TEXT widget in one row? Basically I want it to be similar to how we are able to have three columns of the ONE NEWS TextRSS widget in one row.

     • Genkisan | April 20th, 2011 at 8:27 am

       Unfortunately no as they are of different structure.

101. eden | April 21st, 2011 at 8:59 pm

     Hi,

     i need to translate OneNews in French but i have a difficulty with one thing.
     I don’t know how can i change the month in french !

     Can i have some help ?

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | April 23rd, 2011 at 8:15 am

       Not too sure but you probably need to install the french language pack for WordPress itself.

       • eden | April 27th, 2011 at 3:43 pm

         Already try, don’t work. My wordpress (MU – 3.1.2) is in french, all my blog are in french….

         I was thinking like you but …don’t work.

       • Genkisan | April 28th, 2011 at 8:04 am

         A workaround would be to display the months in numerals. Go to WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Settings and change Date Format in Tooltip to “j m y, g:ia”.

         • eden | April 28th, 2011 at 5:46 pm

           I will do that for the moment, thanks

102. eden | April 21st, 2011 at 9:38 pm

     I have another question !

     How can i make an RSS of my onenews page. I see a link at the top but the RSS is empty.

     THX again

     • Genkisan | April 23rd, 2011 at 8:17 am

       The link at the top is for your blog posts (if you have any). There is no feed associated with each onenews page.

103. Richard Dennis | April 28th, 2011 at 8:01 am

     I’d like to use the FULL length of the RSS FEED widget instead of using the 3 columns, how do I do that

     Hi

     I was wondering if there is a limit to the number of feeds you can have coming to your website. My site has slowed down quite a bit and was wondering if that’s just a side effect of the number of feeds or if there is something I can do to speed it up. The site is http://www.holymackinaw.com

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | April 30th, 2011 at 10:27 am

       No limit on number of feeds (perhaps only by your server load). You may want to install super cache plugin for better performance.

105. Lisa | April 30th, 2011 at 3:38 am

     Hello,

     Thank you for creating such a great site.

     I just installed the onenews theme, and tried to change the header, but that didn’t work for me.

     I uploaded one to the exact measurements given, but nothing happened.

     Here’s the url: http://www.liveworkplayla.com/news-3/

     Thanks,

     Lisa

     • Genkisan | May 4th, 2011 at 8:45 am

       Go to WP-Admin > Appearnace > OneNews Settings and change Logo to “Image”.

106. mike | May 1st, 2011 at 10:47 pm

     Hi

     I’d like to include a banner or a google ad just below the news feeds like in your demo on the right hand side. How do i do this?

     Also can i replace the wordpress search in the header with a google custom search?

     Thanks Mike

     • Genkisan | May 2nd, 2011 at 9:30 am

       In the textRSS widget, enter your adsense code in “Content to display after feed”.

       You will need to edit header.php for the google custom search.

107. Gerardo | May 3rd, 2011 at 10:34 pm

     Hi. Very happy with your theme!

     One question: How can i put something (ads, weather…) in the left or right sidebar of the page? When i put something in the sidebar widget, it does not work.

     Best regards and thank you!

     • Genkisan | May 4th, 2011 at 8:34 am

       The sidebar widget-area is for the blog section sidebar. You can put a OneNews textRSS widget on the homepage widget-area and insert your ads/weather code into the “Content to display after feed”.

108. Roseanne | May 13th, 2011 at 2:54 am

     Hi Genkisen…just love your OneNews template. How can I add an “Adjust Text Size”function to the template so that people can increase the feed point size of the font? Possible?
     Thanks!
     Roseanne

     • Genkisan | May 14th, 2011 at 8:22 am

       You can try out these plugins.

109. NoCo | May 13th, 2011 at 6:41 am

     I am using only one page for all feeds. Is there a way to eliminate the top menu bar (where it currently has a link to “Home”)?

     Thanks!

     • Genkisan | May 14th, 2011 at 8:15 am

       You can create a blank menu at WP-Admin > Appearance > Menu.

110. NoCo | May 13th, 2011 at 11:06 pm

     Also, is there any way to remove the search box in the header? Thanks. Love the theme!

     • Genkisan | May 14th, 2011 at 8:30 am

       In header.php, remove

       <form style="float:right;" method="get" id="searchform" action="<?php echo home_url(); ?>/">
       <input type="text" name="s" id="s" class="search_input" value="<?php the_search_query(); ?>" />
       <input type="submit" id="searchsubmit" class="submit_input" value="" />
       </form>

       • NoCo | May 14th, 2011 at 12:14 pm

         Is there a way to allow for a larger (longer than 500px) Header graphic as well?

         Thanks so much for all your help!

       • Genkisan | May 16th, 2011 at 8:31 am

         In style.css and functions.php, replace all “500″ with “935″. Then in header.php, delete

         <div id="toprightbar">

         <div id="topicons">
         </div>
         </div>

111. Roseanne | May 17th, 2011 at 5:12 am

     Hi,
     Installed the WordPress PlugIn: wp-chgfontsize 1.8
     Three things:
     (1) How can I get this widget to appear flush right on the OneNews template page instead of flush left?
     (2) How can I get the widget to stay in Widget selections after adding it to a page. Now it just disappears because I’ve used it once so I can’t apply the widget to any other pages. I’ve applied to the Gaylord National Resort page only at this point.
     (3) The widget only works on the menu headers and not the RSS feeds or the default template content? Any suggestions?
     Thanks so much, Genkisan.
     Roseanne

     • Genkisan | May 18th, 2011 at 9:53 am

       Don’t use the widget and use the php code instead e.g in header.php, look for

       <a href="<?php bloginfo('rss2_url'); ?>" title="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Subscribe to Feed', 'onenews' ); ?>"><img src="<?php bloginfo('template_url'); ?>/images/icon_rss.png" alt="<?php esc_attr_e( 'Subscribe to Feed', 'onenews' ); ?>" /></a>
       <?php } ?>

       and paste the following code after those lines

       <?php chgfontsize_display_options(); ?>

112. Andrew | May 22nd, 2011 at 11:10 am

     Do you know how you would randomize the feeds on a page?

     • Genkisan | May 23rd, 2011 at 9:28 am

       Not possible unfortunately.

113. Kerstin Hoffmann | May 26th, 2011 at 4:20 am

     Hi!

     Really great theme and I am busy installing everything and learning more. But there is one problem: Creating pages is not possible. The URL of the page always produces a 500 Internal Error message.

     And it does work with any other theme on that same webspace.

     Do you habe any ideas?

       From what I googled, most likely it’s .htaccess related.

       Try to rename/delete the .htaccess file in the /newsroom/ folder. Then go to WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks and click Save Changes (a new .htaccess should be created in the /newsroom/ folder).

       • Kerstin Hoffmann | May 26th, 2011 at 3:12 pm

         Wow, thank you very much for your quick answer. That was great advice. Because there wasn’t even a .htaccess file in the folder. So I just did >Permalink >Save Changes. Then I had one, and now it works. Great theme. Great advice. AND far more better Google skills than I have. Congrats!

     How do I create a RSS Feed and RSS Video in the same row ?

     • Genkisan | June 1st, 2011 at 8:19 am

       Insert following into the “Content to display…” field in the OneNews textRSS widget.

       <?php
       echo SimplePieWP('http://gdata.youtube.com/feeds/base/videos?q=wordpress&client=ytapi-youtube-search&alt=rss&v=2', array(
       'items' => 4,
       'template' => 'videorss',
       ));
       ?>

       • Richard Dennis | June 7th, 2011 at 2:53 am

         thanks for the response, can you explain how to use this php program.

         Should I insert in the beginning or end ?
         etc

         • Richard Dennis | June 7th, 2011 at 3:22 am

           after further review I would like to have the text rss and the video side by side

         • Genkisan | June 8th, 2011 at 7:35 am

           Just leave the feed url for 1 of the columns empty and place the code into the “Content to display…”. It doesn’t matter beginning or end. Try it out. Nothing gonna break and you can always undo.

115. Colin Boyd | June 1st, 2011 at 11:34 pm

     Hi,

     Do you have any tips on duplicating filled in widgets, I looked at Jaws but that doesn;t do it, I also looked in via phpmyadmin and it looked messy to uncode

     • Genkisan | June 2nd, 2011 at 8:24 am

       Unfortunately no due to the way wordpress stores the widgets settings.

       • Colin Boyd | June 2nd, 2011 at 9:02 pm

         Thanks, if you find a way be sure to let me know, do you have the edited files for the widget management thing.

         • Genkisan | June 4th, 2011 at 8:40 am

           Nope, as I’m not using the hack.

116. dessign | June 4th, 2011 at 4:48 am

     This is cool theme, is the FEEDBURNER working? Thank you

     • Genkisan | June 4th, 2011 at 8:30 am

       Do you mean the RSS icon link? You can use the feedburner plugin

       • dessign | June 7th, 2011 at 4:31 am

         Thank you, Genkisan, I got it to work with the plugin,

         Marios

117. Ewan Spence | June 5th, 2011 at 3:08 am

     Quick question before installing – POPurls has a section at the bottom where there is the SITENAME followed by just the FIRST RSS entry, with a block of them one after another. Possible to do this, quickly hack one together, perhaps in the OneNewsHTML block?

     • Genkisan | June 6th, 2011 at 9:41 am

       Unfortunately there’s no equivalent of the popurls quickies. I may add that in the next version but no promise.

118. Richard Dennis | June 11th, 2011 at 12:15 am

     hello,

     what is the link color hex code ?

     • Genkisan | June 13th, 2011 at 8:30 am

       Link color hex code is #326ea1 (light scheme) and #7bb9d0 (dark scheme).

       • Richard Dennis | June 13th, 2011 at 10:21 pm

         thanks can you tell me if you are using a plug in for the facebook, tweet +1 google sidebar, if so what is the name of it?

         • Genkisan | June 15th, 2011 at 9:05 am

           Please refer to my email on monday (sent to pacian at yahoo.com).

119. Kris | June 14th, 2011 at 4:25 am

     How do I remove the space between my “site of the week” and the categories section? I am using the OnenewRss widget with only 1 entry.

     You will have to go to the website to view it. http://www.velotoday.com

     Thanks.

     • Genkisan | June 15th, 2011 at 9:11 am

       Not possible unfortauntely. You may want to move the categories on top.

120. Interested | June 24th, 2011 at 2:27 pm

     Hi again,

     Is it possible to include a custom menu into a textRSS? If yes, how?

     thx

     • Genkisan | June 25th, 2011 at 8:39 am

       Nope but you can paste the following code into the textrss widget’s “Content to display…” field.

       <h2>test</h2>
       <ul>
       <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
       <li><a href="http://123.com">123<a></li>
       </ul>

       • Interested | June 26th, 2011 at 10:05 pm

         Thanks!

         Do you know if its possible to make a description box for the links? Like the one which is showing the first couple of words of an article if its a rss feed (mouseover)?

       • Genkisan | June 27th, 2011 at 9:42 am

         <h2>test</h2>
         <ul>
         <li><a class="itemtitle" href="http://123.com">123</a><div class="tooltip">description</div></li>
         <li><a class="itemtitle" href="http://123.com">123</a><div class="tooltip">description</div></li>
         </ul>

121. Colin Boyd | June 28th, 2011 at 6:31 pm

     I know this might be a bit far fetched, I’m using a Facebook Comments plugin to use instead of the wordpress comments, this is the homepage for the plugin http://we8u.com/facebook-comments/#faq

     this plugin attaches itself to the exist wordpress comment plugin, however the problem I have is that the comment count doesn’t work.

     Thios is the info they give to fix the issue but I’m lost with it.

     Combined comment counts aren’t working on my site.
     Ensure your application secret is set correctly. If it’s not, all Facebook API calls will return an error and the plugin won’t be able to retrieve the proper counts.

     If you’re sure your application secret is correct, note that the combined comment count is passed through WordPress’ get_comments_number() function.

     If you’re using a custom theme, you may have to modify your comments.php file (located inside your theme’s directory) to include a call to get_comments_number() where your comments are being listed.

     Any help would be great.

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | June 29th, 2011 at 8:17 am

       Not sure. Maybe put this code where you want the comment to appear in index.php or single.php.

       <?php echo get_comments_number() ?>

122. Eli | July 4th, 2011 at 10:28 pm

     Hello. Thanks for the theme. Is there any way to display link hits? I mean how many people clicked on the links?

     • Genkisan | July 5th, 2011 at 9:27 am

       Nope. But you can display the most popular links.

       • Eli | July 7th, 2011 at 2:16 am

         Thank you.

         • Eli | July 7th, 2011 at 2:18 am

           Only one problem – it takes now forever to load the page. Please see yourself. http://www.weirdheadlines.com

       • Eli | July 7th, 2011 at 2:40 am

         Basically i did tests with this
         http://www.webpagetest.org/result/110706_1R_105R7/1/details/
         with the popular links script it takes up to 27 seconds to load the page from an average 17.
         http://www.webpagetest.org/result/110706_RN_105RN/1/details/
         Please consider a solution or a different advice on this topic. I appreciate it.

         • Genkisan | July 9th, 2011 at 8:49 am

           To get the page title, the code snippet visits each site, hence the slowdown. For speed, display the url instead by deleting

           $file = file($p['click']);
           $file = implode('',$file);
           $file = str_replace(array("\r", "\r\n", "\n"),'',$file);
           if(preg_match("/<title.*>(.*)<\/title>/iU",$file,$m))
           $title = $m[1];
           else

123. OJ | July 6th, 2011 at 12:42 pm

     Hi,
     How do you manage all the feeds in the demo? It runs pretty fast, I have a lot less feeds than you do and the site is too slow(feels sluggish). I place them through Yahoo P and then into the theme but they still no improvement on the loading speed. I also use W3 Total cache an that did little.

     What are you doing exactly? Is it the hosting provider, CDN, etc. Please share a tip or two as to what you did, not what you think should be good for us.

     Please help!

     Thanks.

     • Genkisan | July 9th, 2011 at 8:40 am

       My host is downtownhost and using wp-super-cache. The feeds are direct. Pretty much everything is default with no tweaks.

124. Ralph | July 11th, 2011 at 2:59 am

     Hey folks, I’ve noticed that some of you are saying that the theme loads slow. Well, in IE7 (not in Firefox, where it is super fast) I had the same problem (even with W3 cache) and I solved it as follows:

     1. Go to the theme’s settings page;
     2. Scroll to the Social Icons in Tooltip setting;
     3. Select “Hide”;
     4. Save settings;

     Now the theme won’t show the social media icons in the tooltips anymore, which should increase your site’s loading speed (these social media buttons always seem to slow a site down, so using dozens of ‘em on a single page seems like a bad idea) Good luck!

125. Alex | July 11th, 2011 at 2:56 pm

     Just wondering, is it possible to customize the news wigets (e.g., Google news, Digg, etc) to display only a particular type of news such as ‘mind & health’ or ‘cars’, etc?

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | July 12th, 2011 at 8:03 pm

       Only if the site offers keyword-based rss e.g https://www.google.com/news?pz=1&cf=all&ned=en_sg&hl=en&q=health&cf=all&output=rss

126. Jedidiah | July 18th, 2011 at 10:51 pm

     I have been having some trouble fixing my site ( am a flat dummy that can learn fast, anyway)

     1. how do i fit a 728 leaderboard banner to my header (beside the logo)

     2. if i have a sub-category, how do i show the arrow to drop down like in http://news.jungle.mn (i cant seem to figure it out on my own after creating the subs)

     3. do the theme allow me to do a customization like this for the footer area…if yes, where do i play around (pls, be a little detailed)
     See the link here http://bit.ly/pWNjoc of my design concept here

     thanks in advance

     • Genkisan | July 21st, 2011 at 7:49 am

       1 & 3. Sorry but theme is sold as-is so I’m unable to help with these customization. You probably need to revamp the entire footer.php rather than thru the widgets

       2. Copy and paste this symbol ▼ here to the parent menu.

       • Jedidiah | July 21st, 2011 at 8:40 pm

         i copied the code ▼, to the top menu, but it is ‘?’ displaying. Pls be a little detailed with the step to follow.

         Thanks in advance

       • Genkisan | July 23rd, 2011 at 9:42 am

         Should be quite straightforward. Or you can try the instructions at http://chexed.com/ComputerTips/asciicodes.php (hold down ALT key and press 31). What’s your blog url?

         • Jedidiah | July 29th, 2011 at 1:12 am

           unfortunately, the error still persists.it still shows the “?” mark i have to remove it from. url is http://news.citygist.com

         • Genkisan | July 30th, 2011 at 7:40 am

           Could be caused by a plugin. Try disabling them.

127. RS | July 20th, 2011 at 8:15 am

     Does the theme support the Google+ button?

     Was not in the live demo. Would like this before I buy.

     Thanks!

     • Genkisan | July 21st, 2011 at 7:44 am

       Nope. But you can easily add the google+ button code to the addthis service.

128. Bill | July 21st, 2011 at 10:46 am

     About to launch an NFL aggregator with OneNews… Do you have designated AD spaces built in? – ie. in the header area etc. Any AD info about your theme would be helpful. Be sure to check out redzone365.com in August. Thanks so much, Bill.

     • Genkisan | July 23rd, 2011 at 9:35 am

       You can paste your ad code into the OneNews HTML widget.

129. Marz | July 28th, 2011 at 7:08 am

     Hi Genkisan,

     what if you want to show the flickr photos just like popurls? meaning smaller thumbnails, 9 thumbnails in each row (3 thumbnails in each 300px box).. i looked at photorss.tmpl but the thumbnail size is not there to change.. please advise.

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | July 28th, 2011 at 8:37 am

       In style.css, look for .photovideowrapper and change the following

       width: 80px;
       padding: 8px 8px 0 4px !important;
       padding: 8px 6px 0 3px;

       Note that this will also affect the videorss.

       • Marz | July 28th, 2011 at 10:28 pm

         so it’s only the CSS to change? cool..

         i see what you’re saying.. in both photorss.tmpl and videorss.tmpl you used and but if i edit photorss.tmpl to use different div and span class then i can have different thumbnail sizes for only my photo thumbnails.. correct?

         sorry, my codes got wiped out in my previous reply.

         looks like i cannot embed code in my comment.. i meant to say if i replace div class=photovideowrapper and span class=photovideothumb in photorss.tmpl and write a new css for photo thumbnails

       • Genkisan | July 30th, 2011 at 7:35 am

         Yup.

130. Nesika | July 30th, 2011 at 4:59 pm

     Hello,

     I like your theme a lot but before purchasing I need to ask a few questions:

     1. I understand that I can use ANY RSS feeds in any language.
     Is that correct?

     2. Do all the pages stay on my site or they are “on the fly”?

     3. I see that pictures show on Google news feeds, but would they also show on my custom feeds whenever applicable?

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | August 3rd, 2011 at 2:38 pm

       1. I can’t guarantee all languages but I’ve seen chinese/turkish/spanish feeds that work.

       2. On the fly

       3. Not all feeds will work.

131. WOLE | August 1st, 2011 at 7:02 pm

     What plug-in can you recommend that will give me a credit link for posts shared through my site AND will make use of facebook Open Graph Protocol, maybe like MaxFbSEO mentioned above.

     Please check this link for a clue on my request http://bit.ly/n0qICf and this video too http://maxinsiders.com/119/post-to-the-wall-of-facebook-user-that-liked-you/

     Thanks in Advance Genkin and all OneNews users

     • Genkisan | August 3rd, 2011 at 2:46 pm

       Sorry but these 3rd party integration is beyond me.

132. Martino Chiaviello | August 5th, 2011 at 2:51 am

     First, I just want to say this is probably one of the best and easiest themes I have ever worked with. It is very well done an documented! Thank you!

     I have a question regarding the RSS feed button next the the search box. Is there a way to program that so it reads the first link in each widget and populates an RSS feed for the actual page? Also, is there a way to make the search box able to search the feeds?

     Thank you again!

     • Genkisan | August 6th, 2011 at 8:35 am

       Unfortunately no for both as the feeds are not archived, only displayed on the fly.

133. Poya | August 7th, 2011 at 7:37 am

     Hi,

     I want to add a new sidebar to some pages (not onenews pages) and when I add a new line in functions.php to register the new dynamic sidebar, the new sidebar shows under widgets BUT my news feeds on other pages get messed up. Looks like all the onenews widgets are getting shifted one level up. How can I add this new sidebar without messing up the other onenews pages and widgets?

     Please advise.

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | August 8th, 2011 at 8:37 am

       Unfortunately this is a limitation of OneNews. Not sure if these plugins will work but you can give them a try: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search.php?q=multiple+sidebar

       • Poya | August 11th, 2011 at 12:18 am

         Genkisan,

         I figured this out. I added the the code to register the new sidebar at the bottom of the code that generate the new onenews pages in functions.php.. now the new sidebar shows up under the onenews pages (under widgets) and that doesn’t mess other pages up

134. Menezes | August 9th, 2011 at 6:34 am

     Did you think that I can use this template integrated with FeedWordPress plugin > http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedwordpress/ ?

     • Genkisan | August 10th, 2011 at 8:55 am

       Not sure as I have not used it myself but some have reported success but some failed.

135. Marz | August 11th, 2011 at 12:22 am

     How to remove ‘Add This’ icon from the tooltip?.. Let’s say you want to only show facebook and twitter icon for sharing, how do you do that?

     • Genkisan | August 13th, 2011 at 9:05 am

       You can replace the addthis code with your own services in includes/simplepie_wordpress_2.php line2248-2253.

       • Marz | August 13th, 2011 at 11:59 am

         Genkisan,

         I want to keep using the ‘Add This’ service, but I want to remove some of the icons. Let’s say you want to keep only ‘facebook’ and ‘twitter’ and ‘email’ icons and remove the rest. Is that possible?

         Cheers!

         • Balu | August 13th, 2011 at 3:07 pm

           http://www.addthis.com/ – where u can solve your problem. That’s what i think.

           GL.

136. Marz | August 14th, 2011 at 8:46 am

     Genkisan,

     I edited the home page to add some social sharing buttons template tag and the home page stopped working, it shows the default feeds but not the feeds of the onenews widgets. I undoed the changes on home.php but that didn’t help. Then I created a new Home in the menu and moved all the widgets to the new one .. why is that happening to the pages and the home page?

     • Marz | August 14th, 2011 at 8:51 am

       Genkisan,

       I thought adding a new HOME page to the menu fixes this issue but it technically does NOT because now http://www.domain.com shoes the default feeds on the home.php .. the new HOME page that I created and added to the menu is only accessible on http://www.domain.com/home/ .. Please man, I need to fix this ASAP

     • Genkisan | August 15th, 2011 at 7:55 am

       If you wish to use the new page as your homepage, you can go WP-Admin>Settings>Reading and set “Front page displays” to a static page for the front page.

137. Menezes | August 15th, 2011 at 10:20 am

     Could you give me a example for the ‘OneNews VideoRSS’ using Vimeo, let’s say I want to show the Art category at http://vimeo.com/categories/art

     • Genkisan | August 18th, 2011 at 8:13 am

       Seems like vimeo doesn’t have feeds for categories. Only
       author e.g http://vimeo.com/rockmonkeyart/videos/rss
       channel e.g http://vimeo.com/channels/teamg/videos/rss

138. Ryan | August 16th, 2011 at 6:37 pm

     I want to be able to show my own recent blog posts from my site. Is this possible with this theme?

     This looks awesome, and I want to buy it, but I need to be able to have some of my own blog posts, from the same site this theme will be installed, to show on the main page.

     See, I get paid for sponsored posts. And many of the advertisers want their post, with any paid links within the posts, to display on the main page.

     Is there any way to do this with this theme?

     If this is more help, here’s a for instance: I would have one blog category called “sponsored”. I would need the blog posts from this category to show, in full, on the home page where this theme would be installed.

     Thanks.

     • Genkisan | August 18th, 2011 at 8:19 am

       You can display the blog as your front page with this theme. Then use the Frontpage Manager plugin to display only posts from the sponsored category.

139. Pete @ CashBlogged | August 18th, 2011 at 4:27 am

     Hi there,

     Great theme, although I’m at the point where i think I have hacked it a little to much, quick question – Adding new pages and not selecting the onenews template should result in my page NOT showing up in the categories above, correct?

     Thanks!

     • Genkisan | August 18th, 2011 at 8:04 am

       You mean the top grey menu? They will show up but you can use the custom menu to hide them.

140. Arlen | August 19th, 2011 at 7:29 am

     In setting up new pages, is it possible to duplicate the widgets set ups on already created pages? I.e., each of my pages has the same widget structure and similar feed sources. In setting up another new page is it possible to just easily duplicate everything from an existing one, or does it all have to be done by dragging/dropping/manually inputting feeds, titles etc.?

     • Genkisan | August 20th, 2011 at 8:20 am

       Unfortunately no as WordPress does not have a duplication mechanism for the widgets.

141. Jedidiah | August 19th, 2011 at 3:20 pm

     Hi,

     Been working my ass off to get the best out of this awesome script.

     Please, i have some questions that border on CSS functionalities, after attempting severally without some success:

     1. I have attempted to reduce the default LOGO size from 500 * 82 to a smaller size. I will need to some help to fix it [i cant find the function that controls it in the CSS

     2. i want to render the FOOTER image to be 100%...so that it covers the whole website. see my website http://news.citygist.com

     3. How do i integrate SEARCH THE WEB FUNCTIONALITY [using Google] with the search box, since the script does not allow posts to be searched on my website

     Thanks

     • Genkisan | August 20th, 2011 at 8:45 am

       1. In functions.php, change the size in

       define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_WIDTH', apply_filters( 'onenews_header_image_width', 500 ) );
       define( 'HEADER_IMAGE_HEIGHT', apply_filters( 'onenews_header_image_height', 82 ) );

       2. The theme uses the blueprint framework which limits the width to 950px.

       3. Try these plugins

142. Jedidiah | August 20th, 2011 at 5:10 am

     Attempted to change the default ADDTHIS share button with a custom bookmark share (using http://www.wpfacepages.com)
     As explained, i focused on line 2248-2253 in “includes/simplepie_wordpress_2.php ″

       I’ve not used that plugin so I’m can’t really tell. You can disable the addthis social buttons by going to WP-Admin>Appearance>OneNews Settings and set “Social Icons in Tooltip” to hide.

       Then in textrss.tmpl (and other tmpl files), delete {ITEM_SOCIAL_ICONS}. And put your own code in place.

       • Jedidiah | August 21st, 2011 at 1:37 am

         Thanks. We try it out

       • Jedidiah | August 22nd, 2011 at 1:31 am

         tried out your timely response.

         REPORT: After making changes, page could not be saved, saying: “Page Not Found”. though a dummy. My good guess is that if the bookmarking option works for “normal” wordpress theme, it will also work for OneNews.

         Will post any progress i make as i await your support.

         I nice week ahead

       • Genkisan | August 22nd, 2011 at 8:13 am

         Sorry but I’m lost as well.

143. Dan | August 25th, 2011 at 2:54 am

     What SEO options are available for this theme? There is very little to customize.

     Also is there a way to prevent the feeds from taking visitors away from our site?

     Where can we get updates as well?

     • Dan | August 25th, 2011 at 3:04 am

       I also need a way to get my twitter name or a link to the site included when people use the sharing options. Otherwise this site does nothing to keep people on it.

       Can search engines actually crawl and index these feeds? I havn’t seen any evidence of it….

     • Dan | August 25th, 2011 at 3:12 am

       Is there a way to customize the Add This share buttons? I really need some help here.

     • Genkisan | August 27th, 2011 at 8:40 am

       You can use the All-In-One SEO plugin as it provides more options.

       You can choose to open the links in a new window (which is on by default and switchable in the theme options).

       Simply email me for new updates with your paypal email.

       The addthis code can be found in line 2248-2253 in /includes/simplepie_wordpress_2.php. Help for customizing addthis can be found here.

       Type site:ericulous.com/onenews into google search engine to see the pages indexed.

       Just a note that the theme does not grab feeds as wordpress posts, only display them on the fly.

144. Marz | August 25th, 2011 at 10:28 am

     Does removing the tooltip help with the speed of loading the news feeds and the website?

     • Genkisan | August 27th, 2011 at 8:48 am

       Try it out to see if there’s any diff. In script.js, delete line 1-7.

       • Marz | August 28th, 2011 at 1:21 pm

         i thought i should delete the javascript from the bottom of the footer.php.. does removing lines 1 to 7 in script.js do the same thing?

       • Genkisan | August 29th, 2011 at 8:09 am

         Yes, works both ways.

145. OJ | August 25th, 2011 at 11:32 am

     Is there any way to add podcast feeds to the theme? Is it a feature that could be added in next update? None of the widgets seem to work.

     Thanks.

     • Genkisan | August 27th, 2011 at 8:50 am

       Unfortunately podcast is not supported.

146. Roseanne | August 25th, 2011 at 10:22 pm

     Hi Genkisan,
     Facebook has done something strange with group RSS feeds. All the group feeds that we had imported into our site are now broken. Individual page feeds are fine. How do we find a feed for group pages that we can import into the OneNews WP theme?
     Thanks for whatever help you can give us.
     Love this theme, by the way…
     Roseanne

     • Genkisan | August 27th, 2011 at 9:12 am

       Sorry as I’ve not dabbled much in facebook groups so pretty clueless on this.

       • Roseanne | August 30th, 2011 at 11:35 pm

         Does anyone using this theme know how to access Facebook group feed information?

147. Shashwat Nagpal | August 26th, 2011 at 5:44 pm

     How to show sideblog link?

     • Genkisan | August 27th, 2011 at 9:07 am

       Go to WP-Admin > Appearance > Menus to customize the top grey menu.

148. Marz | August 28th, 2011 at 11:23 pm

     the website loading speed is still my main concern.. I have wp super cache installed but the first load of the pages are still taking for ever.

     i was thinking, maybe moving the location of the javascripts in header or footer can help! Right now, the pages are loading when all the news feeds and videos are fully loaded. I’d rather load the page first and then the content of the pages gets loaded as the visitors scroll down to see more.

     this way, at least they see something before the rest of the content in the page is loaded.

     is this something doable by moving the location of some scripts in the pages/header or footer?

     please advise,
     thanks.

     • Genkisan | August 29th, 2011 at 8:11 am

       I dun think moving the location will help.

     • Richard Dennis | August 31st, 2011 at 7:18 am

       I recommend, hiding SOCIAL ICON IN TOOLTIPS, this will actually help loading the page. see ONE NEWS setting to make changes

       • Marz | September 3rd, 2011 at 2:35 am

         Richard,

         The social icons in tooltips have been hidden. wp super cache is installed and the pages get cached and load fast BUT the first load of the pages take so long.

         I am thinking about removing the tooltips

     • Mark | September 3rd, 2011 at 5:54 pm

       Switch preload on and then you won’t have that problem.

       Mark

       • Mark | September 3rd, 2011 at 6:29 pm

         I removed the social icons in tooltips due to loading time but added a wibya bar at the bottom that has facebook, linkedin, google plus and twitter etc.

         Take a look at the site to see what I mean.

         Mark

149. Matt | August 30th, 2011 at 12:50 am

     Just installed your theme on my 3.2.1 version of WordPress and kept getting this error:

     public_html/headlines/wp-content/themes/onenewspremium/includes/cache/83019d3cfa0bd090fc02f7da4cebef58.spc is not writeable in /home/wotnstv/public_html/headlines/wp-content/themes/onenewspremium/includes/simplepie.inc on line 1770

     Messed around with my permissions for an hour and nothing worked. Reverted back to a 3.1 install and now everything works fine. Just wanted to make you aware moving forward of this issue.

     • Genkisan | August 31st, 2011 at 9:06 am

       Thanks for the heads up.

       • Mark | September 2nd, 2011 at 10:01 pm

         I am using WordPress 3.2.1 and it all works fine.

         Mark

150. Dan | September 1st, 2011 at 9:52 am

     How much would you charge for customizations? I don’t have the skills to do what I want.

     • Genkisan | September 3rd, 2011 at 8:24 am

       Sorry but I’m not taking on jobs anymore. You may wish to get help from the experts at WordPress HelpCenter or browse the freelancer directory.

151. Ike | September 2nd, 2011 at 1:34 am

     Hello,

     I’m about to buy this theme and I have a question: Is it possible to localize this template on another language?

     • Genkisan | September 3rd, 2011 at 8:27 am

       Yes, the theme is localization ready.

       • Ike | September 3rd, 2011 at 4:47 pm

         Thanks for your reply. I’ve already purchased the theme and I wonder which file needs to be edited in order to localize? In the folder “Languages” there is only one file called onenews.pot, which opens with Powerpoint.

       • Genkisan | September 5th, 2011 at 8:38 am

         You need a program called poledit to do translation. Read up the tutorial here and here.

152. DD | September 2nd, 2011 at 3:41 am

     cudt see my pages whts the problem…only can see the home page..if i added page its not showing..,.

     • Genkisan | September 3rd, 2011 at 8:30 am

       Select OneNews as the Template (see guide at WP-Admin > Appearance > OneNews Guide > Adding More OneNews Pages Step 3.

153. Jorge | September 8th, 2011 at 7:13 am

     I’m ready to purchase your theme but before that I have two questions.

     Can I use an image instead of text for the logo?
     Can I have multiple users that can customize their page?

     Thanks in advance.

     • Genkisan | September 8th, 2011 at 7:39 am

       Yes, you can use an image which can be set in the theme options.
       Yes, you can run WordPress in Multisite mode for your users to have their own account for customisation.
