  3. Awesome! I’d be super keen on a design with similar colours etc to modularity (a bit classier). Does it come with a darker option?

    Brilliant theme. Well done.

  9. I would ask this on the support forum, but I can’t get in. I’m having trouble setting up the portfolio slider. I followed the instructions on the instructions.html page, but no image is showing up. The directory is located in my “wp-content” folder, and is called “uploads. What can I do to fix this? Thanks.
    The theme looks beautiful here though! ๐Ÿ™‚

    1. slider? What are you doing to upload your images? You only have to click the add an image button and add your images. Do NOT insert into the post itself. Just save them (in the gallery) and the code will automatically pull the mediumsize images and thumbnail size image (for home / archive pages)

      1. I’ve been doing that, but it isn’t showing up. I’m adding my images from my desktop, so it’s creating a database called “uploads” and I can see the file on my FTP. Where should the images be located? Thanks!

  12. Great job! I think this is really close to what I’ve been looking for in a theme. As much as I like the idea, and overall look and feel, behind Fullscreen, it’s a bit too busy for me. This is cleaner and easier to use IMHO.

  14. The instructions for us poor free members arent detailed enough. How do you separate the blog from the portfolio. Also the drop down on my portfolio is showing oddly.

  17. I don’t see option to leave comments on post pages… is this missing ? or it is designed like that ???

    1. Yes, its designed like that. Comments can go specifically on the Blog section. Portfolio is just to showcase your work not for discussion.

      1. Even if it is designed like that, is it possible to arranged for comments to work on the Portfolio posts?
        I would like to have people commenting on the works there too.

        Thanks for the great new theme anyway.

  21. Wonderful theme. I must be misunderstanding the instruction not to “insert into post”. I can only insert images into posts by clicking that button in the image library. But when I do, the image shows up twice in the post: as a medium-sized image top left, and then full size below. Is this how it is supposed to be?

    Thanks

    1. After you upload the image, do not click insert into post. It automatically should be associated with the post. To confirm, just check if you can see the Gallery (1) (sort of) tab after you upload the image. Save changes and exit. When you publish, you will see the image(s).

      If you click insert into post, yes, the images will be printed twice and ruin the design.

  25. Hello,

    On the homepage header, the images are stretch to fill the thumbnails, is there a possibility to crop them instead because the quality is not good.

    I tried to change the settings in the media (choosing crop) but it doesn’t work on the homepage. Any help?

  28. I would like for the brown border to adjust itself and fit to each image in the post. is there a way to accomplish this?

    1. Yeah, it would be rad if it did that and centered the image in the column. Some images (especially portraits) are almost too big at 600 pixels wide. This is a killer theme though! This is pretty much exactly what i’ve been looking for. Great work and many thanks!!!

    2. Did you figure out a solution for this? It’d be nice to have the border automatically fit the image. Please let me know. Thank you!

    Is it possible to get comments going in the Portfolio posts…?
    Has anyone managed to do that?
    I would like to have people making comments there too.
    It would be great to have that on both the Blog & the Portfolio sections.

    1. I have figured it out… lot of luck !!
      For this theme to be PERFECT all it needs now are excerpts showing up with the thumbnails/Portfolio…
      Anyone?!

        1. on single.php just remove the if condition here:

          <?php if(in_category($blog_ID)) { comments_template(); } ?>

        2. on single.php just remove the if condition here:

          <?php if(in_category($blog_ID)) { comments_template(); } ?>

        3. Actually, Chandra’s suggestion would remove the ability to make comments on your blog posts.

          You need to remove the if condition and replace it by just

  37. Hey Chandra/GPP

    Great job on the theme. Had 2 quick questions:

    1. Is it possible to make my home page my Blog instead of the “Latest Work” and make my Portfolio page the “Latest Work”?

    2. And how do I change the category for what’s displayed in “Latest Work”?

    Thank you for your help!

  40. I cannot get WP Thumbnail to work. I am using WP 2.8. There is no way for me to do custom settings in the settings panel and the thumbnails don’t transfer to the front page after crop. It just takes the image and shrinks it to size. Is there anything I can do to fix this with that plug-in, another plug-in or a custom field?

    1. Mine is working but when I change the preset to “thumbnail-wide” my thumbnails just vanish. If I change it back to the default, then it shows an image, just not the thumbnail I’ve chosen/cropped, more like what you describe of taking the image and shrinking to size. I’m guessing I’ve missed something obvious.

  42. Same problem as Chris – WP Thumbnail does not work with WP 2.8 (for me). I’ve followed all of the instructions and I get a “nullpx” error. On the settings page, I can’t even change the options. I’d really like to change my thumbnails but I don’t know of a workaround.

  50. This is a great theme, just the kind I was looking for to get my portfolio out there. The problem is that for some reason the portfolio section isn’t working for me. When I roll over the header links they don’t drop down and my portfolio posts display the images inline, one after another, down the page. Can anyone help me out?

  56. Thanks Graph paper press for the template… nice work and thanks Chandra.

    I too am having the issue where if I just put in one image and don’t insert into post, the image will not show up on the homepage as a thumbnail or on the post as a larger image.

    If I do click insert into post, I get two images, a medium and a large on the post.

    Will try get it to work without inserting into post once uploading but have tried about 20 iamges to no avail.

    Thanks again for a lovely design.

  69. a couple of questions ….

    1. same question as threegp above. i know this must be simple, but i cannot find the location.

    2. i want to show multiple photos embedded within the text of a blog or portfolio entry. When i “insert into post” it inserts to the post but also into the top image of the post along with the primary image. is there a way to keep it from embedding into the top part? i only want one image on the top part and the other “inserted” images to be seen in the post itself among the text.

    hoping another user has encountered and solved the same problem. if there is no solution i may need to change to a different template… (yet again)!

    thank you!

    1. Try embedding the photos via html. Upload them to your server, then take the url’s and in the HTML post area.

      This shouldn’t add the photos to the top, but should add them to the bottom.

      I haven’t tried this, its just a theory, so let me know if it works out.

      1. good idea about embedding w/ html. i haven’t been able to get it to work just yet… i’ll have to give it a shot again.

    thank you!

    1. Try embedding the photos via html. Upload them to your server, then take the url’s and in the HTML post area.

      This shouldn’t add the photos to the top, but should add them to the bottom.

      I haven’t tried this, its just a theory, so let me know if it works out.

      1. good idea about embedding w/ html. i haven’t been able to get it to work just yet… i’ll have to give it a shot again.

        i found out how to change the “hi! We design beautiful websites…” greeting. it’s in the Main Index Template (index.php) file. called “introduction”

  71. Okay, somehow I managed to screw up my “Portfolio” heading on the homepage, by replacing it with the word “Services”. It must have broken a connection somehow, because now I have something besides Services that says “No Categories”.

    I can’t get rid of the “No Categories” thing! And yes, I’ve tried creating categories, but it’s still there!

    Also, I went back into the code to put “Portfolio” back in where it was before, but now I can’t find “Services” anywhere to replace it.

    Any suggestions AT ALL would be greatly greatly appreciated.

    Thanks! Otherwise, I love this theme!

    1. i have the same problem with the no categories thing. also, can’t get my portfolio/blog posts to link up with the portfolio/blog header. not sure how to fix the link ….

    3. Go into “theme options” and put the appropriate number for your blog category. Chandra also shows this in his video. Hopefully that will fix your problem

  76. That is what I have been looking for, for my portfolio. Unfortunately I’ve had to switch servers and somehow now the Workaholic doesn’t create the thumbnails, only the high resolution image. I’ve tried even to downgrade to WordPress 2.8.2 as this was the last known version that worked perfectly, but this doesn’t help. I even de-activated and re-activated the theme, re-entered the dimensions in the Media options page, no luck – still only 1 picture, which is also used as a stretched thumbnail. Please, Chandra – help, I don’t want to look AGAIN for another theme. Pleeeeeez ๐Ÿ™‚

  83. Hello Chandra,

    I am looking at the workaholic template and I would like to change the “Portfolio” tab to something else like “work” or “projects”. Is there a simple way to do such a thing? I appreciate all the hard work you put into this, it is truly a gift for everyone!

    1. In the theme editor, go to ‘Header (header.php)’ and scroll down until you find the html code that defines the Portfolio tab.

      Here you can change the word ‘Portfolio’ to whatever you want ๐Ÿ™‚

  98. There has been a lot of talk recently about how good SEO can improve your sites ranking, but I think that having a well coded layout is just as important. Your site should still make sense to people that have CSS and/or images disabled, and to achieve this the structure of your HTMl should be such that a plain html page can still be read and understood. This also makes it accessible to screen readers for partially sighted or blind people.

    1. renato — I’m experiencing exactly the same problems as you. I looked up your domain on a hunch — we’re both using GoDaddy. I wonder if it’s a GoDaddy problem.

        1. Hi Nitrogliserin,
          I see the video and i follow exact step by step
          what he recommends and dont works…
          I got same problem of Mela =(
          Any suggestions?
          Hugs!

        2. i think that i understand what’s happening!

          the new updated version 1.1 of work-a-holic is incomplete!
          i take a look in “functions” of the theme … and see many archives that not are in the zip… for example in this lines of “functions” of this 1.1 theme we have:

          wp_enqueue_script(‘superfish’, THEME .’/js/nav/superfish.js’, array(‘jquery’));
          wp_enqueue_script(‘nav’, THEME .’/js/nav/jquery.bgiframe.min.js’, array(‘jquery’));
          wp_enqueue_script(‘nav’, THEME .’/js/nav/hoverintent.js’, array(‘jquery’));
          wp_enqueue_script(‘search’, THEME .’/js/search.js’,”);

          note that in this new version 1.1 (workaholic_1.1.zip) that i donwloaded don’t have sub directory “nav” in “js” directory.
          the “js” directory just have 2 files: jquery.gallery.js and search.js and no subdirectories…

          i think the owner of graph paper press commits a mistake compacting the
          1.1 version of this theme and forgot to put all files in ZIP =(

          please graph paper press staff fix this zip file of 1.1 version of word-a-holic theme… its incomplete =( !!

        6. Hi Nitrogliserin, thanks for clarifying that it’s not a GoDaddy problem. I brought up plugins because the instruction page lists that JQuery not working could be due to installed plugins.

          I actually just installed WordPress a few hours ago and yes, prior to your comments had done the instructions as recommended by the video. Still the same problems though.

  105. Hi!
    Iโ€™m using Work-a-holic for my website http://diebeiden.eu and I think it is really amazing. But Iโ€™ve got two questions.
    First: Is it possible to show and see the pictures Iโ€™ve posted in the portfolio section also in the RSS-feed?
    Second: How can I enable comments in the portfolio section?

    I hope someone can help me.
    Thanks.
    Bye.

    1. I manged to enable comments in the portfolio-section.
      To enable it just open the ‘single.php’-file in you workaholic folder, go to line 22 an delete this: ‘($blog_ID)’. (of course without the ”. And that is it.
      I think it is not the correct PHP-way, but I am quite new in this area and this works well for me.

    First: Is it possible to show and see the pictures Iโ€™ve posted in the portfolio section also in the RSS-feed?
    Second: How can I enable comments in the portfolio section?

    I hope someone can help me.
    Thanks.
    Bye.

    1. I manged to enable comments in the portfolio-section.
      To enable it just open the ‘single.php’-file in you workaholic folder, go to line 22 an delete this: ‘($blog_ID)’. (of course without the ”. And that is it.
      I think it is not the correct PHP-way, but I am quite new in this area and this works well for me.

  107. Hi,

    I’m getting the same javascript problems as Mela and Renaton mentioned. I downloaded the theme from the membership page on the 30th of August and I have the missing files mentioned by Renaton.

    So I can’t figure out what’s wrong. I do notice a superfish error in my javascript error console tho.

    I noticed Mela’s site is working now. How did you fix it?

    It’s a great looking theme. I can’t wait to get it working.

    Cheers

  109. Hi, first, like the others, congratulation for this template. Very beautifull and usefull.

    Unfortunatly, I have a problem that I noticed too on some websites using the theme. Here is the problem : for example, I set up wordpress in order to display 3 posts per page. Supposing I post 3 portfolio posts and 2 other posts in the category blog (with the right ID excluded in the theme options), I should see only the 3 portfolio posts with the โ€œNEXTโ€ thumbnail off at the right bottom. Actually, this โ€œNEXTโ€ thumbnail is enabled, linking toward an empty page. To understand the problem, check the website of Sascha (see his message above). I have exactly the same problem.

    Before to submit my message, be sure I checked the problem on a local version of wordpress (2.8.3) and on a personnal server.

    Is anyone having an idea how to fix this?

    Thanks.

  111. Hi, it’s me again! ๐Ÿ˜‰

    It seems the problem is fixed. I erase the command wp_reset_query in the index.php file. The result is that the NEXT link only toward the portfolio and not toward one or few blank pages, depending the number of posts in the Blog catagory.

    I think it’s OK right now, but tell me if I’m wrong or not.

        1. Yep!!!

          And it was not the same problem for me. Read above my message posted in August 31, 2009 at 11:53 am. And the solution I posted in September 1, 2009 at 8:07 am.

          I would like to have the validation of the Graph Paper Press team.

          Good luck!

  113. Hi, I think that in version 1.2 there’s an error in the menu styling because it’s quite ugly and completely different from your demo site(which is using v1.0 I suppose..)!
    Hope you can fix it really soon!
    Thank you

  115. I’ve just created a child theme for Workaholic called WorkBase.
    I’ve Ironed out some glitches in the process as well. Its got sleeker graphics, a widgetized Intro heading on the homepage (you had to edit the core php file before) flash-like image galleries via the SmoothGallery plugin and a spam free contact form.

    The demo is here:
    http://www.antoneycalvert.com/wordpress/

    I’ve just completed this so let me know of any glaring issues I’ve missed. This is my first child theme so I’m not sure how to go about making it available to the users here (if it’s good enough that is)? Maybe Thad can give me some info?

  119. First of all, this theme is absolutely amazing! I’ve been able to customize it to my liking, but have run into a snag. I realize that by adding an image to a post gallery, the theme automatically creates a thumbnail, which is great, but also inserts the full size image into the post.

    Is there a way to disable the automatic insert into the post on specific categories?

    Is there a way to disable the automatic insert into the post on specific categories?

  121. First off, this is an absolutely stunning theme! I love the simplicity and cleanliness, perfect for displaying our record catalog.

    I understand how the theme works, and think it’s great that it creates thumbnails for the gallery automatically – whew! However, I would also like to create a category to display my video portfolio. With that being said:

    If I insert an image of the audio player into the gallery for each post, a thumbnail of the video is created which is good. However, in the actual post, I then have an image of the video and the identical looking video player below it.

    Is there a way way to manipulate the theme so that for a particular category, the thumbnail is still created when uploading an image to the post gallery, but the image doesn’t actually show up in the post?

    Any help would be greatly apprecated. As soon as I figure this out, I will post a link to our modded them for everyone to look at.

    1. Don’t insert the image into the post, simply upload the image then save the changes only. The image will show up in the thumbnail clipping area at the bottom of the post admin page.

      Hope this helps.

      1. Thanks for the reply, Toney, but that doesn’t fix my problem. When I just save the image into the gallery, the full size image still shows up in my post as well as creates a thumbnail.

        For posts in the video category, I would like the theme to create the thumbnail for the gallery only without placing a full size copy of the image in the post automatically. This happens when I only “save changes” – I am not actually inserting the image into the post. This reason this is undesirable is that the post has an image of the movie, and the movie that look identical.

        See for yourself at http://siteholder.net/?p=379

        1. Do you have the WP Post Thumbnail plugin installed? You will need this for the thumbs to work properly.

          I have a video working on my demo site without the thumb showing on the page. Its the first featured rollover on the home page: “Motion Graphics”

          Hope this helps you.

          Toney

        2. Toney, thanks for the info.

          That’s exactly what I’m looking to do, but unfortunately, i can’t get WP Post Thumbnail to work with this theme in WP 2.8.4.

          I’m able to install the plugin and activiate it, but there are no settings, and options to not show up when I try and upload an image through the post editor.

        3. The only thing I can think of is that your server isn’t running PHP 5. I ran into this issue when trying to install WP Post Thumbnail on a Yahoo Hosting server.

          PHP 5 seems to be needed for the plugin to work properly. Try asking your web hosts if they have PHP 5 installed on their servers.

          Hope you manage to get this sorted. Great site by the way!

          T

        4. Thanks, Toney.

          I checked my cPanel, and I’ve actually got PHP 5.2.9 installed on my server. It looks like this will remain open ended until WP Post Thumbnail gets another update, and perhaps even then it won’t ever work.

          Either way, things could be worse ๐Ÿ˜‰

  123. When I use this theme The thumbnails on the portfolio page are stretched and distorted. The images look fine in the post, but the thumbnails are all out of whack. Can anyone tell me where I can adjust the thumbnails specs or just how to fix this? Besides this, this theme would be ideal for my needs. Thanx

  129. I am having similar issues to those mentioned before.
    The thumbnails on the home page are stretched.
    I have installed the WP Post Thumbnail plugin, doesnt seem to help.

    ALso when inserting images into a post, once published, there is the gallery above with 1, 2, 3, 4 etc and then the images below.

    I have tried to reload from scratch, same issues.

    This is such a great theme, would be a pity to have to ditch it.
    Am I doinng something wrong here?

    Does it work with Wp 2.8.4?

  131. Hello!

    I love the theme, but I have one little glitch that I can’t figure out. At the top of my page, in the nav by the search bar, there’s a “no categories” non-functioning link that I am not sure how to get rid of. Thanks!

    1. Hi, you have to solutions to fix it.

      1 – if you plan to have a blog, do not forget to specify the ID category of the blog. It’s very well explained in the video published by the Graph Paper Press.

      2 – in the file header.php, delete or comment(best solution) the line of the blog ID. And “no categories” will disappeared.

      Don’t forget: you have to choose one of these solutions, not both.

      Good luck!

  133. Hello,

    Very Nice theme. I like it and have been working with it for several days now. However, I cannot seem to do two things:

    I would like to post just two rows of images (thumbnails) on the main page. This page then, should have two working arrows (previous and next arrows) near the bottom of the page. Currently, the page is generating more than 3 rows. After the 3rd row, the arrows are “active” but the image that should “go” to a secondary page instead remains on the 4th row on the main page. I guess I expected that it would be moved to the secondary page once 3 rows were filled up. Clicking the arrow only brings you to a page with no posting.

    How can I force the template to show only two rows on the main page and display extra’s on a secondary page? I assume that fixing the first problem with take care of the issue with the arrows pointing to new page without a post.

    Thanks in advance.

    Wendy

    1. Doh…problem solved. So sorry. I finally stumbled upon the link for the older posts and found my answer, which was right under my nose all along (isn’t it always?). Setting the maximum number of blog posts to 6 (Settings >> Reading). Geeze! Too simple! I now have two rows of thumbs on my main page. Yay!

      Thank you Chandra and GPP!

  139. hi,

    FANTASTIC theme, and thanks for making it free.

    i have a question.

    for the “Portfolio” section, how can i make the top menu item stay highlighted when a sub/child category is selected. For example, if I rollover “Portfolio” and click on the category, “Art,” I want the parent menu item, “Portfolio,” to be highlighted.

    i’d also like the top menu item “Portfolio” to stay highlighted when viewing a post in any “Portfolio” subcategory,

    i figured out how to do it for the “Home,” “About,” and “Contact” menu items, but not for “Portfolio.”

    racking my brain…any help would be GREATLY appreciated.

    thanks!

    1. Hi! Can you share how you managed to change the menu link colors when it’s the current page? I’m having trouble with all the menu pages. Thanks!

    Is there anyway to prevent this?

  154. Hi all,
    I was wondering if anyone can help me with my problem.

    I have just started to create my website using the Workaholic Theme.

    Today when I did 3 posts as you will see on my website’s home page, none of the thumbnails came up for these recent posts (I just had my server and host upgraded and had no problem with the first 3 posts I had tested a few months ago)..

    Can someone help me?

    I would be so greatful. I simply want to know how to get the ‘Thumbnails to appear on the homepage when I create a new post).

    It used to be something that automaticaly happened so I am confused why it won’t work now. ( I am posting my single images via a URL link).

    Cheers,

  158. why am i getting this? Warning: imagecreatetruecolor() [function.imagecreatetruecolor]: Invalid image dimensions in

    my file is in vertical

    1. Sounds like a WP or PHP problem. Please either update to the latest version or make sure your server is running PHP5.

  160. Comments are not working on this theme for me, and I think it has something to do with pretty permalinks. The sites I’ve seen with this template working all have the default, “ugly” permalinks and since I activated pretty permalinks, comments have vanished. All my backend settings are correct for allowing comments, but although the comment links show on the blog page, when you click on one you just get taken to the post and no comment box is loaded. Every other template I try, the comments work fine. This is a horribly frustrating bug… anyone know a workaround? Till it’s fixed no matter how beautiful this theme is, I can’t use it ๐Ÿ™

    1. …oh, and by the way I’d like to add that this theme is a real beauty – I had praised it enthusiastically in my original comment which somehow got eaten. I don’t want the designer to think I don’t appreciate their work ๐Ÿ™‚

  162. The template is showing the first 10 posts and breaking to 4 rows. I am running WP 2.9 and even have a test environment running 2.9.2. I thought it was something wrong on my part but even when I take a look on your site it is showing the extra post. I assumed by the picture in the description that it was supposed to show the latest posts 3×3

    Was this intentional? If not to do you have a solution?

  164. Hi,

    After uploading this theme yesterday, I noticed that clicking on any of the posts on the front page (under “Latest Work”) would, sure enough, bring me to the post, but I would be unable to comment or view comments on the post. However, clicking on “Blog” at the top and then clicking on the post would allow me to comment/make comments.

    Is there any way to make the posts commentable when clicked on from the from page?

    Thanks in advance!

  166. Hello Blogger!!! Greetings of the day!!!
    I just canโ€™t believe that plenty of outstanding features can be easily found on one WordPress theme. Well I would have downloaded this WP theme if I wouldnโ€™t have visited nullit.net website because Iโ€™ve already downloaded one WP theme making portfolio website for my project.
