Hi

I just downloaded your latest version of VW Hospital Theme but when i went to install the Zip file (vw-hospital-pro-plugin_1.0.zip) I got the following message “The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.” – Can you please advise?

I have been using VW Theme’s for nearly two years now, they have consistently provided extremely quick support to solve any issues that I had and answer any and all questions I posed. They are an absolute pleasure to work with and I have no hesitation in recommending their professional capabilities. They come back so promptly with either a solution or an answer that you would think they are only next door to you – brilliant and definitely reassuring.

I am using the ‘Doctors’ Category to show Locations and have created 13 ‘Locations’ in the Doctors section but only 10 Locations are showing in the drop down selection box – why will it not show all the ‘Locations’ available?

Thanks

Hi Keymaster

Thank you for your reply.

I added your code to the child theme ‘functions.php’ file, unfortunately it didn’t work. When I tried to load and run the site, the code just appeared at the top of the screen – do you have any other suggestions?

Regards

Martyn

Hi
I needed to create a couple of additional sidebar layouts with their own menu structures.

I created the sidebar.php files in the child directory and thought I could then register them through the child theme directory functions.php file but this did not work and the theme ignored my additional sidebars until I edited the main functions.php file and registered them there.

This is how I edited the functions.php file:-
Original entry
_________________________________________________________________
register_sidebar( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Page Sidebar’, ‘vw-hospital’ ),
‘description’ => __( ‘Appears on page sidebar’, ‘vw-hospital’ ),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar-2’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<aside id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</aside>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widget-title”>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’,
) );

I then added my additional sidebar array:- (which works ok)
register_sidebar( array(
‘name’ => __( ‘Hearing Sidebar’, ‘vw-hospital_child’ ),
‘description’ => __( ‘Appears on hearing sidebar’, ‘vw-hospital_child’ ),
‘id’ => ‘sidebar-3’,
‘before_widget’ => ‘<aside id=”%1$s” class=”widget %2$s”>’,
‘after_widget’ => ‘</aside>’,
‘before_title’ => ‘<h3 class=”widget-title”>’,
‘after_title’ => ‘</h3>’,
) );

This works, but only if I register the array in the functions.php file in the main theme directory and not the functions.php in the child directory. I know it’s not a good idea to change the main theme directory files so is there a better way of doing this?

Hi Keymaster

Thanks for the reply on adding my own slider utility, unfortunately I cannot find the option to disable the VW Slider in the Customizer, all I can do is pick the number of slides and change the image there does not seem to be a disable option.

Hi

I already use Slider Revolution for my sliders as it gives me the ability to add other detail to my images, is there a recommended way of using this plugin with the VW Hospital Theme instead of the inbuilt one?

This is an extremely versatile and easily configurable theme with excellent and quick support from the authors for any required ‘tweaking’ or clarification on installation and implementation procedures. As many of the previous reviews have stated, the backup assistance is superb and its this that gives you the confidence in the product. This theme is turning out to be a real joy to work with.

I highly recommend having a look at this theme family.

Hi Keymaster

That solved the problem perfectly, added to child theme style.css and I can now add another menu item, thank you for your assistance. Brilliant theme layout by the way.

Thanks

Hi

I need 8 Items on my main menu but as I added the 7th item to my menu it has dropped below the ‘HOME’ item, is there a way I can extend the width of the menu bar?. I am developing the site locally on my computer and so cannot give you a URL to access and see the screen.
