I'm really waiting for it because for now the sidebar doesn't look very well, and i guess almost all buy your theme for the sidebar I can push the sidebar changes out tonight. But can you pm your site so I can verify that extra widgets are good for your end as well? You can check my demo site to see more widgets tested and verify they are good

So dump all that into krocan.css and stick it in the custom directory - otherwise end users have no way to save their modifications when they upgrade your theme as your custom.css file will over-write the end users. On 01/05/2016 at 2:47 AM, Dylan Riggs said: No no, I got that part, it was how the CSS is loaded, and is why I put those changes in custom.css, if they were to be edited, they just needed to be found in custom.css Also note, that 95% of the CSS in custom.css won't really be modified unless you're really modifying major elements of the design. I already put most other CSS in there own files because of t heme options and such. Either way, when I push this out tomorrow, custom.css will be empty This is the whole point of the custom.css - it should be blank. Any custom css you made should be under the custom tab and be labelled correctly, then if the end user wants to add any custom css of their own they do it in the custom.css file. This is how all the other themes I have do it, seen a few who add a lot of their css into one big file and have small little custom files separates for other things. (I think you're still miss understanding Eudemon).

(I think you're still miss understanding Eudemon). Already done. The point I was making was that when I had it all in "Krocan.css" it was still being overwritten since Krocan loads after custom, thus overwriting any changes a user would make IN custom, make sense? Hence why I put common CSS inside custom.css since they were getting overwritten unless I put an !important tag there. I'm just pointing out that css files were/are loaded alphabetically, as flitterkill has mentioned... so if I made zCustom.css and threw everything in there.... nothing you put in custom.css would show because of how they were loaded alphabetically. The fix is to just use _krocan or any prefix solution that shows before thus being loaded and not overwriting a users changes. Either way, already have a solution for it
CP_User Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Makes sense! Noticed a few plugins don't work with the theme, I'm not sure if you can fix it or if it's to do with the plugin itself? Either way, I'll be waiting for the next update

KroCan has a ton of edits, as you can see from all the CSS changes needed. Add in the Off-Canvas menu and a few other features, I bet there will be conflicts, and I have no problem fixing everything... I just have to see everything :P. Shoot me PM and I can apply CSS fixes if it's display error or a theme error/compatability. If it's a 3rd party plug-in and they've added there own CSS classes for example, I can't really touch those.
CP_User Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Yea it's a 3rd party plugin, not important right now as I have other plans for the theme now, but if I run in to issues, I'll send a pm your way!
MikePT Posted May 3, 2016 Posted May 3, 2016 Just a suggestion: Have the sidebar have it's own scroll instead of scrolling the entire page to scroll the content on the sidebar. Also the sidebar should never be bigger in length than the page... this could be solved with a scroll-able sidebar.
Dylan Riggs Posted May 3, 2016 Author Posted May 3, 2016 Welp, It's going to take another day or 2. All the changes I made were lost when I built designers mode and then got out of designers mode to commit the changes.... looks like _Krocan gets deleted.....

They thought the double scroll was a bad idea. If you looked at the demo site, it's still being critiqued, I'm not finished with it. It'll be touch based and scroll able with a drag of mouse or via phone
Mr.Jake Posted May 4, 2016 Posted May 4, 2016 Put this in there and make option to load it or not. https://github.com/gromo/jquery.scrollbar Or that "Mac OS X Lion" in the demo: http://gromo.github.io/jquery.scrollbar/demo/basic.html So its not visible until you hover it.
razz Posted May 8, 2016 Posted May 8, 2016 Do you have an ETA for the update? The theme is pretty broken as it is now due to the lacking CSS for widgets.
Dylan Riggs Posted May 8, 2016 Author Posted May 8, 2016 In about 2 days, I was out of town for mothers day. I've got most of the widget side of things complete,a long with more theme options. I am just looking over other widgets I can add and then providing fixes for them. Also, made a few core changes to the canvas menu.
Mike Niewold Posted May 11, 2016 Posted May 11, 2016 I have buy Krocan. We have upload the xml file in the IPS. Now we got an folder 'owlcarousel' were do we need to place this in the Filzilla folder the name "Krocan 1.0" and upload / owlcarousel In the folder owlcarousel are standing more folders.

razz Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 What is the current status of the bugfixes / update? I'm getting quite fed up with the lack of communication, as you said it would be roughly two days from last sunday.
Dylan Riggs Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 Sorry for the delay - I know, I'm breaking promises, it's just I keep either throwing in updates or I didn't get a chance to work on it as much as I anticipated. Last week was just a bad week for me to work on any projects because of a work event I had to prep for. I've been fixing anything reported, but I wanted to iron out the canvas menu the most, with a few theme options, but I couldn't release a half done theme option, or one untested. I've finished most of that though Here's what's planned on release: 1. Bug fixes/UI changes - Please look at @Eudemon suggestion post, as well as @razz's post. I honeslty can't remember if I got everything or not since I've been going back and forth since release. 2. Canvas Menu styling updates from those who offered feedback from the sites. I catered the CSS to what you guys offered and put the CSS in the theme, if I miss anything. Again, I'll gladly cater the widget for your needs 3. Canvas Menu updates and a sticky option. Though, the sticky is only good on larger screens, otherwise it will still collapse. There isn't an easy way (at this time) to make it stick while giving you a lot of visible content. The overlap was intentional from the get go, as that's the nature of an off-canvas menu I'll push what I have out tomorrow, I don't have anything else going on as I'm caught up with all my other work.
Mr.Jake Posted May 14, 2016 Posted May 14, 2016 I've bought the theme and i'm not having any problems with lack of updates or support. You ppl are too hasty when it comes to patience Let him do the job and it will be fine!
Dylan Riggs Posted May 26, 2016 Author Posted May 26, 2016 Very sorry for the delay's. I rewrote the canvas menu to better support the widgets which was the longest process. Basically, I added every single widget that I have on there and everything looks good now. Not sure with more 3rd party widgets, but I'll fix those that need them. I've also fixed everything that you all wanted outside of adding a couple theme options. Mostly from Eudemon's request for logo URL and static canvas menu. Download, try it out and let me know.
Eudemon Posted May 26, 2016 Posted May 26, 2016 Few bugs here for now, you can check my site to verify 1, uploading new version will break the theme, I had to removed the old version and then re-upload as new theme 2, menu button shows drop down icons even if it doesn't contain drop down menu 3, The last menu button is complete broken
Dylan Riggs Posted May 26, 2016 Author Posted May 26, 2016 Will fix the icons. I think when I went back to make a few changes, I went too far and didn't fix the icons. Will fix that As for the navigation issue, it's related to the "more" menu. I haven't used it yet - will provide a fix. Outside of the navigation, how's the Canvas menu and other bugs if any? Getting there! I can only test with what's available on my community.
ChurchOfPop Posted June 4, 2016 Posted June 4, 2016 Hi, we're new to the theme. www.churchofpop.net - its our default theme. One glitch we really need fixed is this... That menu and the sub-menu's are really important. They get cut off.
Dylan Riggs Posted June 17, 2016 Author Posted June 17, 2016 @ChurchOfPop Your fix will be in next update. Please see this: http://prntscr.com/bhdvdg @Eudemon- Same, next update which I'll release over weekend will finally fix all of those culprits. The "more" menu was causing a bunch of conflicts and it's about done. Please see attached screenshot: http://prntscr.com/bhdvle It's not finished yet. What I did is scrap out how I traditionally did the menu and done it over from scratch to include the more menu which I left out from the first version when 4.0 released lol.
Eudemon Posted June 17, 2016 Posted June 17, 2016 @Dylan Riggs why is there even a "more" button when we don't have it in our menu manager, why not just remove it
