lovely theme.
Please give option in the theme panel to control the width of the theme.
Wow!!! this looks great. Thanks to Magpress for such a wonderful theme. I’ll use it for my next wordpress blog. Downloaded!
Can you release an updated version of this theme in white and an option to control it’s width.
I really like all your themes! they are amazing….thank you!
It would be nice if you can show me how to add the navi. button on the feature thing…like click NEXT or PREVIOUS or by PAGE #….im testing it on local and never get it to work 🙂
Hai, Vincent. Thanks for using our theme. Regarding your question, please download this slider addon, unzip and upload the img folder inside the theme’s css folder. Then, open the featured.php and change the slider variables to:
timed: false,
showArrows: true,
showCarousel: true,
embedLinks: true
Also, uncomment the img scr with thumbnail class to enable carousel navigation. Please try it out and let me know the result. Thanks.
I have installed the theme on 2.9.1 version but not able to set the Featured Post option.
Its not able to load the existing categories.
Can you please help?
It would be nice if I look at your site and determine the problem. Anyway, can you try using other category and make sure the category has more than 1 post on it. Thanks.
Getting an error after installing this theme when i view the individual posts that have a comment.
Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /nfs/c06/h01/mnt/88259/domains/dev.sinkingstar.com/html/wp-content/themes/zinet/functions.php on line 366
Also tried to install the carousel file but that doesn’t seem to show up either. Any ideas?
Thanks
Hai. I’m not sure what’s going on there. This theme was tested and worked fine on 2.6+, 2.7+, 2.8+ and 2.9+. You also have to enable the featured content slider via theme options and make sure you have more than 1 post on the category choosen.
Hi,
I cant get to display the image in the “featured” section.
Also, how do i change the thumbnail for each post on the homepage.
I am kind of confused. Please reply asap.
regards,
kittu
😀 got it.
oops. i still cant get to display multiple images in the featured section.
Hai. You can only show 1 image per featured post. You can customized the image to show by using the custom field feature, please refer to the readme.txt for more info. Thanks.
I am following the instructions on the readme to have images show up on the featured section but they’re not showing? I am using – feat-img = featured content slider and adding in the entire URL of the image as the value. Still nothing. Please help.
Helo, please make sure the category you chosen to be featured has more than 1 post on it first. Thanks.
Hi there,
I’m using the “super awesome” Zinet theme for my blog but I get the error message below.
—->>> Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /home/dynam30/public_html/smartdogstraining/wp-content/themes/zinet/functions.php on line 366 <<<<—
The theme works perfectly well from the outside but in the admin area (the post editing page), the above error show in the comment section. To get a better understanding of this, please, visit http://www.smartdogstraining.com/wp-error.doc for a word file showing the image. Also, the error means I can only edit one post at a time.
It might also help to know that I used an auto blogging software to make the post.
I look forward to your help.
Thank you very much in advance.
Hai. One user told me before that the problem solved after he upgraded php4 to php5. It might cause by php config on php4. If you can’t upgrade your php, try opening the functions.php and delete the lines below:
if(function_exists(‘wp_list_comments’)) {
add_filter(‘get_comments_number’, ‘comment_count’, 0);
function comment_count( $count ) {
global $id;
$comments_by_type = &separate_comments(get_comments(‘post_id=’ . $id));
return count($comments_by_type[‘comment’]);
}
}
Please try it out and let me know. Thanks.
Hi Ronald,
Upgrading to php5 completely solved my problem and that only took a click of a single button in my cpanel. For that and your continuous generosity, hard work, and all, I say thank you very much – you’re a legend in my books! 🙂
Kind regards,
Alex.
Hi again,
I just read that someone already asked the same question. I’ll try what you’ve advice there and see what happens.
Thank you very much for sharing your themes; there remain by far the best FREE themes out there.
Cheers!!!
Is it possible to edit the template files to reduce the dimensions of very large images in the featured section ?
Hi Ronald,
I’m back again; this time with 3 quick questions for you to answer – please!
1. I used an auto poster to update my blog sometimes. The problem is, most of them come with excerpts to long to fit in the home page preview. Do you mind showing me how I’d be able to somehow shorten them to fit or eliminate them so the plugin use a sentence from the post?
2. After making posts, I get an error message saying my http://www.SmartDogsTraining.com/wp-admin/post.php might be temporarily down and that shots down my browser completely – meaning I have to restart it after letting it sit for a while. Can you help with this please?
3. If I were to want my post previews on the main page to be without pictures instead of the default one, do you think I can do that?
This for sure will be plenty of work but I sure hope you can spare sometime to help me out.
Thank you very much in advance.
Alex
Hi again,
I thought I’d let you know I’ve managed to solve one of the problems; #2 that gives error messages on every post or post edit. It was an issue with one of my plugins, Twitter Poster or so it’s called.
I look forward to getting the answers to the other two.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi ! Thanks for this excellent Theme, I just have a little problem.
I would like to change the tabber widget to a “classic” widget we usually see in wordpress, is it possible?
If it’s not, how do I remove the title part in this widget?
Thanks
