Thanks for colaborating.
Love the theme!
But don’t know how to add the slider at the frontpage. I know left there are the Nova settings with the slider options, but don’t know how to link a picture. Just the URL, from google? Or from your FTP server and in which map?
Please help me!
What was your solution? I am having a similar issue not being able to upload files to the slider; or I am doing it wrong. Any Help would be greatly appreciated!!

Very great Wordpres template
Is there a way to set a conditional statement for the images in the tabs on the home page? For instance, if one of the posts or pages just has text and no image, is there a way for it to not show the blank space with the plus sign graphic and just show the text pushed up to the top?
Thanks,
Ali

Hi azimuth, i just have downloaded your nice theme Nova. Like it a lot. One question. Is it possible in someway to get rid of the both advert buttons in the backend Themeforest/ Luiszuno). I really need this theme for my customer. But off cause without the buttons. I also would pay to get this thing away. I think its embeded by a little trick.
Thanks. Have a great day!

Hi! I fix this issue, the .mo file is not correct.
And there are many bad translations (link!=liga, link==enlace)
I have the correct translations files, if you want I can send to you, or you can do it yourself:
1. Download “poedit” program
2. Open es_ES.po file located at “wp-content/themes/nova/languages”
3. Review translations and save, program automatically generated a new .mo file.
4. Overwrite .mo and .po files with the modified files.
And that’s all
Please send me the corrected file. and ill include it on the files.
Thanks
I have the same problem, some words are cut and indeed I see no problems in translation, I think the problem is the size of the cell assigned to the text. Anyway would appreciate your help Sergio.
Use the forums for comments related to issues.
I don’t have a Twitter account. What is this nonsense.
Sorry this is the only way to download freebies at the moment.
I don’t know how to config this theme like you did?
Did you have a bookguide for this theme ?
There’s the help docs.

I am having an issue with getting this theme to work with the All in One SEO Pack plugin which I use for page by page SEO.
The description is working but the Title is not getting correctly re-written.
Sorry i can’t help you with 3rd party plugins. Try the built in seo feature.

Después de instalar el tema, tengo WordPress en español, pero la parte del menú de Nova se traduce de forma incorrecta eliminando parte de las palabras, tanto en el índice como en las páginas específicas de NOVA, p.e.: En lugar de escribir “Generales”, aparece “nerales”, en lugar de “SEO”, se ve “O”. En algunos casos se puede deducir, pero no siempre. ¿ Sabéis a qué puede ser debido”.
Aparte de este problema el tema está estupendo, felicidades.
I really like the theme, just that I have a problem, I load each page I get a pop up page from a psychic and not find a way to remove it can you help?
No idea. I think you installed a plugin that causes this.
thanks and what solutions was the address of a counter that I had put what caused the problem
Hi,
Great theme. Congrats!
However I am being able to upload it. When I try to upload the zip file the system returns an error saying
“The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the style.css stylesheet.
Theme install failed.”
I am using version WordPress 3.4.2.
Can you help?
Thank you.
Best regards,
Susana
Where can I find documentation of this theme? How to use shortcodes, etc. Tried the free forum but it’s not really active!
Otra cosa: en la versión en español en el dashboard del WordPress salen todas las frases cortadas por el principio, (“SEO” sale como “O”). Es un jaleo!
Felicidades, excelente trabajo.
cool but not responsive..
Can you add Pinterest to the list of social media buttons?
If i find the time i will. Thanks
Hi Ansimuz,
I can’t really understand how to configure the portfolio page. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Antonio
Hola,
Genial plantilla, pero tengo un problema a ver si puedes ayudarme.
Utilizo la plantilla en español, y me “corta” muchos inicios de palabra tanto en el apartado de administrador como después en la página subida.
ejemplo: “Ver más” me lo deja en “er más”
una ayudita por favor!!
genial trabajo!
Lo siento no puedo dar soporte pero intenta aqui: http://luiszuno.com/free-forums/
does Nova comes in responsive version
no
Hola de nuevo,
Estoy intentando añadir una galeria de imágenes a un trabajo “work” y no hay manera, ¿como lo hago?
Saludos
When trying to download this it just navigates to a blank page which never loads although the link is there
Download servers (tweetandgetit.com) are down at the moment please try again in a few hours. - Oct 18, 2012
Luis, what a cerebral, beautiful theme, thank you for sharing it.
I know that you have the free forum, but I was wondering whether you are planning to launch Nova WP as a paid, premium product so that people can receive some direct support from you.
Cheers!
Good idea however i dont think iwold have the time to support thousands of support tickets.
Hi Luis, if I may bring your attention to this opportunity, webpagetest.org has some suggestions for improving speed of Nova WP:
http://www.webpagetest.org/result/121018_GE_1FM/1/pagespeed/
Basically, the two main suggestions are to
- cache static resources (Is your .htaccess file configurable in the WP control panel? I am familiar with htaccess, but not WP)
- combine 15 images into one sprite-image (this can be done by a free online sprite generator such as http://csssprites.com/)
Is there any chance you could do this for the WP or the html theme in a future update?
Compliments!
Thanks for the suggestion, however i dont think i would implement this in the near future.
Hi.
Please, is this theme compatible with WordPress 3.4.2?
I’ve tried installing it, but I only get this response:
“Are you sure you want to do this?
Please try again!”
Please help
How do I get the images to display in the “Recent Work” tab?? I took the stock images out now I have no idea why I cant get them in my frontpage???
I tested the theme but there are many visual problems, it’s not as in the live demo, for example on the blog page it doesn’t show all the data correctly when I hover the post.
It displays :
“ed on October 10, 2011 – 10:19 pm
By admin
ed in Uncategorized”
The text in the navbar is not vertically centered and the navbar height is upper than on the live demo.
And there is no sidebar so all the sidebar widgets are shown in the footer and aren’t layered as well.
most of the functions of nextgen are not working with nova theme, when i click on (add image/gallery ,options ) it will show empty page. when i deactivate the nova theme all function of nextgen works fine.
please help me!!! please
Really really admire your effort <3 <3, it is fantastic : D …..
Nice Theme! I have one question which plugins did you install for the theme? (Subtitle & subheader) !!!
None. Its a built in capability

Hi! Thank you for sharing all those lovely templates! They’re amazing! But I cannot install them in WordPress 3.5.1 because I get the info that “the pack doesn’t have .css file and it cannot be uploaded”. And it says it about all of your themes. Any solution?
Thank you in advance for help!
Hello!
Firstly, thank you for you template – it is purely fantastic!
I am having trouble with one thing and not sure if you can help….
On the ‘view projects’ buttons on the portfolio page, i have set it up to link to the gallery page so you can see all the thumbnails. However, i would like this to link to a specific category within the gallery, for example link it to just the thumbnail images in ‘pink’ or ‘blue’ (data filter). How can i set this up and is there code for this? Sorry i am new to web design and have spent so long trying to figure it out but i am not having any luck!
Thank you in advance!
I have paid with a tweet twice, and I still can’t get the download access. What am I doing wrongly?
Hi, when i modify the dummy images in the gallery page to be of a larger size, IE cannot recognise and load these. Why is this? Is it a compatibility thing? It’s find in Firefox and chrome…please help!
