Question by Pierre
Hi again
If i buy the theme, can you put the footer widget?
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Pierre. Yes, we can add footer widgets for an additional cost.
Question by Alice
The footer.php is block in single user?
Answer by Michael Pollock
Sorry Alice, but I’m not understanding your question.
Question by Pierre
Hi
I would buy the theme wp-prolific, but I have a question:
If I buy this item, single version, put the site up, but then I quit this site and do another, I can not use the theme more?
or can not use this theme in two sites at the same time in the air?
Hugs
Sorry about my English, I used the google translator
Answer by Michael Pollock
The single use option allows you to use the theme on *just one wordpress site at a time.* If you put a site up then quit, you can use the theme on a different site as long as it’s not being used on the first one.
Question by Phil S
Is the prolific theme supported on WP 3?
Thanks,
Phil
Answer by Michael Pollock
I’ve tested it on WP 3.0 Beta version and it work fine, except it does not have the Nav Menu system built in. That’s pretty easy to add though.
Question by Ann-Michele Timmerman
Hi there!
I have decided to take it upon to myself to create my own WordPress site – and I have zero technical skills!
With WP – Prolific – or any of these themes – is it possible to create a LARGE opt-in box on the right hand side of the page? (Currently where the widgetized sidebar is?) And then put the widgetized sidebar BELOW the opt-in box?
Thank you for your help!
Ann-Michele
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Ann. You can simply paste your optin form code into a text widget and place it at the top of the sidebar.
Question by EuroDomenii
Is there any encryption for php files? I would like to customize the theme for single use, not for multiple or developer use.
Answer by Michael Pollock
No, there’s no encryption. You can customize the theme as much as you like.
Question by Rocky Landsverk
could the slideshow image easily be made larger?
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Rocky. Yes it could be made larger.
Question by Inigo
Hello, I really like this theme, but I need to translate it to Spanish. When you say that I would need to go through the code, you mean is just in one file where I can find all the text i have to change, or I would need to go through different ones???
Thank you very much
Answer by Michael Pollock
You’d have to go through each template and translate any plain-english text within the templates.
Question by Eric Alexander

Sorry to be a pest, but just wanted to know whether video can be added to all the themes or only those where it is shown in the sample/demo ?
REgards,
Eric

The themes that show videos on their demo site are already coded to do so. Those that are not could be modified to allow for it.

I’d like to know if the themes uses a lang file where I can find a .mo and a .po file so I can translate the theme to Spanish.
Thank you
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hello inigo. No, there is no language file for this theme.
Question by Eric Alexander
Hi,
Awesome !
Just wanted to know about the Header. Is it possible to add my own header. If so, what’s the size ?
Will this work with a program called WP Spire ?
Best regards,
Eric
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Eric. Yes, you can add your own header to the theme. The specific size is flexible. I’m not familiar with WP Spire so can’t say if ti would work with the theme or not.
Question by Nevrela
Hi,
is the admin in german language to?
Is that possible to make changes in the code, for another design and additional features?
If my site consist of more domains for the same site, do i have to buy multiple version?
Thanks
George
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi George. The theme is only available in English. You are welcome to make any changes within the code that you like. You would need the Premium (multiple use) license if you’ll be using the theme on more than one wordpress-driven site. If you have multiple domains pointing at the same wordpress-driven site (not a good idea for SEO), the Basic license is fine.
Question by vivek
Hello Michael,
Thanks for the reply… just few queries more (apologies for this) just answer in Yes or No
1. At top hand right of the WP-Prolific theme there is four link buttons named ”
Subscribe, Archives, Tags, Popular .. Can I change those links content-wise in this order: Popular, Archives, Tags, Subscribe
2. I use PayPal and my id is resumevivek@gmail.com so i hope when i pay using this account all the theme files will be delivered to me in same email-id (resumevivek@gmail.com)
3. Can I do little alterations by changing little code in php files/images/css .. For Eg: i want to place an image-logo at top left side instead of text… also i want to use different color scheme as per to my choice and different text format with different font size… I hope i can do all this ?
4. I assume that there would be no internal script file in whole theme that may loose my privacy
5. Once i purchase the theme I will be the 100% owner of this theme ..
Please answer in sequence-wise order For eg:
1-Yes,
2-Yes etc…..
Regards,
Vivek
Answer by Michael Pollock
1. Yes, if you don’t mind editing the code.
2. As i said, the files are sent to the email used during the purchase process.
3. Yes.
4. No, there’s no “internal script file” within the theme that may lose your privacy.
5. Technically, no, you do not “own the theme” when you purchase. By purchasing a theme, you are purchasing a license to use the theme. That license give you permission to use the theme on your own site or multiple sites that you own (Premium license). You may make any modifications to the theme that you like, but you may not redistribute it in any way.

Question by Alexandra
Hello Michael,
It is a wonderful theme but can you have a template attribute to create a new page since the appearance editor is not enabled?
In other words installing an Amazon astore, for example, you need to create a new page template where you are going to put your astore link. Can you tweak wp-prolific to do this?
Thanks
Answer by Michael Pollock
You’d have to create a new page template. You could simply modify the existing page.php template built into wp-prolific and save it under a different name, perhaps something like page-store.php. Then upload it and select it as the page template when you create the page for your store.
Question by vlad
Hi there!
Is the WP-Prolific theme the theme is only available in russian or/and hebrew languages? I mean is it possible to translate commands in control panel, like this : “Search results” for “Результаты поиска” and so on? so that readers and users could understand why and what for all these buttons.
If “yes” – I’ll get it.
Thanks for your really wonderful mastery of the subject.
Vladislav
Answer by Michael Pollock
The theme is only available in English. You’re welcome to translate it yourself though.
Question by Cathy Mitschele
Hi, Just a quick question – How do I change the picture showing up in the thumbnail on the home page? I’ve changed the picture on the post page but the old image continues to show up?
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Cathy. Please visit the Solostream Support Forum ( http://www.solostream.com/forum ). We do not address support issues via email or site comments.
Question by John
Hi. Thanks for quick reply. Before I purchase, some other questions, if you please confirm them. (apologies for so many …)
1. So, I can place a text widget on the right top and it can have my Photo + some text for about me. I am in real estate and need my photo stuck everywhere :-).
2. The featured articles are controlled via the Featured category.
3. In the boxes below it, I can select what Category to show.
4. In the Other Recent Articles, it simply shows the rest of the articles. Does it display most recent ALL articles, or based on category?
5. In the Featured article I see an image, when I click on it, does the same image show inside the article? In your article I see a different image. I don’t have many images, my articles have one image which I would like to show both on featured and in boxes, as well as inside the article when you open it up.
6. Can the tags be a cloud?
Is it possible to embed video from youtube?
Thanks
Answer by Michael Pollock
1. Yes, you can place whatever you like in a text widget.
2. Yes, the featured category.
3. Yes.
4. Other recent articles display most recent ALL articles.
5. The featured article image will also appear in the post content if you insert it into the post content. If not, it will not appear.
6. Tags can not be in a cloud without customizing the theme.
7. You can easily embed Youtube videos in a WordPress site regardless of the theme. Just paste in the embed code when you write a post or page, or paste the embed code into a text widget.
Question by John
Hi. Is there any place on main page I show Author and About Author text? I need to have my picture stuck on main page somewhere with a welcome message. Where do I do this? This is a pre-sales question. Thanks.
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi John. You could place that information in a simple text widget.

Question by Sebastian

Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Sebastian. Currently, the theme is only available in English.
Question by Tom
Hi, Greets from the UK.
Really great theme. So good I’m tempted to buy.
Colours are bit dark though (header etc). How easy/difficult would it be to change these?
Let me know,
Thanks,
Tom
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Tom. Thanks for the kind words. The colors are very easy to change.
Question by Wayne
Is one of the theme options to remove the navigational menu that lists categories (under the pages menu)? I would rather not list the categories like that, and wanted to know before purchase, thanks.
Answer by Michael Pollock
Hi Wayne. Yes, that is an option on the Theme Settings Page.
Question by Ángel Verdugo
Hello,
First of all, congratulations for your works. Your templates are very nice and very professional.
I would like to know if this theme (and its plugins) are compatible with the current wordpress version (2.9.1) and also if it’s possible to add footer widgets and if can change the featured content glider for another like the Wp-Sublime’s or WP-Launch’s ones.
Thank you in advance. Cheers.
Answer by Michael
Thanks for the kind words Ángel.
The theme is compatible with WP 2.9.1, and the plugins used by the theme are as well.
There are no footer widgets built into the theme, but you could add them if you know what you’re doing with code.
The featured glider could be be changed – again – if you know what you’re doing with the code.
If you do not know your way around the code, we could customize the theme for you for an extra charge.
Question by JM
Hi,
I’m a french webmaster. I want to know if your template is ready to translate in French (in one file) or I’ll must translate it manually.
Thanks
JM
Answer by Michael
Hi JM. Aside from the Theme Settings Page, we have used the gettext function throughout the theme. You would need to create a .po file for translation however.
