Ok guys, I have just installed a fresh copy of WP 3.4.1 and then uploaded Gamecrusade.

But I have some problems:

1- I can not add tags to posts.
2- I can not move main menu widgets on Wp welcome page
3- If I write some news, and see that under the news category, I can not see the contecnt of the news cause I can not click on the title of the news to look inside.
4- Quick editing posts does not work.

my plugins FYI:

Akismet
Better Related Content
Broken Link Checker
Disqus Comment System
Facebook
FD Feedburner Plugin
Google Analyticator
Hello Dolly
Smart Youtube PRO
WordPress SEO
WP-PageNavi
WP-UserOnline
WPtouch

I was really disappionted by the theme and I think the theme is not fully compatible with WP 3.4.1

Regards

2 more problems:

- The main page keeps expanding under Chrome
- Last News title becomes the site title.

And guys, please do not offer code modification. Instead, update the theme if required.


Update:

How can I remove that line with "League of Legends - Technopat" writing in it?

I can not add tags to posts.

There is a javascript conflict between the latest version of WP admin and the code that was used for theme options in the earliest few releases; the issue has been fixed in the newest releases and all future themes using the new Vertex framework should function fine without that issue.  The only way to fix it in the old releases is to completely reprogram them with new admin code and rewrite a lot of the older functions.  I may eventually get around to reprogramming and re-releasing the older themes, but my first priority is releasing newer and better designs.  Many of the new designs have features that the older ones will never be able to support.

2- I can not move main menu widgets on Wp welcome page

What do you mean when you refer to "main menu widgets on Wp welcome page"?  Game Crusade doesn't have the Flex menu and does not support widgets in the menu.


3- If I write some news, and see that under the news category, I can not see the contecnt of the news cause I can not click on the title of the news to look inside.

That is an issue with the twenty_eleven loop.php which was used for some of the older themes that were released before I programmed a custom loop with styling on other custom options.  The quick fix is to edit loop.php and replace
Code:
<?php the_title(); ?>
with
Code:
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>

4- Quick editing posts does not work.

See my response to the first question regarding tagging; it's the same javascript conflict.

I was really disappionted by the theme and I think the theme is not fully compatible with WP 3.4.1

There are some compatibilty issues, yes, but the theme was released a year ago and a lot of WP core has changed in that time.  I have been extremely busy the last few months creating a WordPress version of the Vertex Framework as well as releasing new themes and plugins on a regular basis; now that I have released the framework, the conversion process needed for theme releases should go much faster, and I will hopefully finally have time in a month or two that will allow me to work my way backwards through the old releases and update things as needed.  As stated above, first priority is new releases and improvements in the framework and what themes are capable of.

- The main page keeps expanding under Chrome

What do you mean by that?  I have looked at your link in chrome, and I'm not seeing anything unusual in the way the site loads.

- Last News title becomes the site title.

If you would like to stop the page/latest post title from being added to the site title, just edit "s5_admin/s5_fw.php" and comment out (add "//" to the front of) or remove
Code:
$header_html .= the_title('',' on ',false);
from the "s5_header_top" function.

And guys, please do not offer code modification. Instead, update the theme if required.

The theme will most likely be getting an eventual overhaul.  Until then, I have given you the info you need to be able to make the customizations/personalization you want.  If you don't want to edit code and can't wait a few months for an overhaul, I would suggest looking at newer releases to see if there's something else that will better meet your needs.  The "Hexicon Gamer" design is on track to be released in October, but I am currently trying to get ahead on releases, so it may be available by sometime in late August or early/mid September.  Either way, it will definitely be out before an overhaul is done on older releases.

How can I remove that line with "League of Legends - Technopat" writing in it?

The line you are wanting to remove is your site breadcrumb and can be disabled on the "Appearance -> Shape 5 Theme Options -> Advanced -> Advanced Options 1" page.

2. problem is related to the framwork I think. I meant the WP Admin Page widgets which can be placed freely. But after enabling the theme, I can not move them.

For the site expand problem, open the site with Chrome and drag the site to the bottom. The bottom of the page keeps expanding downwards with a black space.

Tristan, thank you for your help and reply but as a customer, what would you think if you were me? The theme is marketed as Chrome compatible yet it is not. It has a lot of problems that needs to be fixed.

I am also a customer of wpzoom and they update their themes regularly with wordpress. They are probably a bigger company but what the customer cares in the end is, satisfaction.

I am disappointed but I will try to understand your workload -which, as a customer I should not care about-. I have checked Hexicon Gamer and I kinda liked it. Now all I want is a certain release date either for Hexicon or for Game Crusade.

Regards

I have tried that on multiple computers, and I am not getting the problem you describe; are you sure you don't have a Chrome extension that's causing the problem?

Tristan, thank you for your help and reply but as a customer, what would you think if you were me? The theme is marketed as Chrome compatible yet it is not. It has a lot of problems that needs to be fixed.

As stated above, I can't duplicate the chrome problem on any of the computers I've tried it on, so it appears to be on your end.

I am also a customer of wpzoom and they update their themes regularly with wordpress. They are probably a bigger company but what the customer cares in the end is, satisfaction.

The older themes didn't have a framework of any type, each was custom coded with new functions and methods being added as needed.  I will hopefully be able to convert them all to a basic version of the framework I've been working hard on developing, but that will take a while for each; my current focus is on bringing new and improved releases to the club, all of which will use the framework and can actually be updated on a regular basis.

I am disappointed but I will try to understand your workload -which, as a customer I should not care about-. I have checked Hexicon Gamer and I kinda liked it. Now all I want is a certain release date either for Hexicon or for Game Crusade.

Hexicon Gamer is guaranteed to be out by the October release date, but it may be out sooner as I am attempting to accelerate releases until I am only 1-2 designs behind the Joomla club.

I have found the source of scrolling problem. It happens when I am signed in as admin. The template conflict with the admin area somehow effects the site... Aslo since I am building up the site on that template, it will be harder to move to another template easily without losing some hit.

So, I don't really wan to switch to Hexicon or another template. Please instead of converting  Joomla templates to WP, update the present WP templates. I hope that you get it done in a month.

Aslo I would like to have the lost days added to my account when the update is rolled out. Beacuse I can not use it effectively at the moment. Yet I am losing days from my subscription. I should have got a refund but your policy does not allow that. So, I won't force it.

I will see what can be done about extending your subscription.

I cannot just halt the standard release schedule of the club because a single member wants an update to an outdated theme rather than using one of the many newer themes that are available and fully functional.  I can, however, try to make the time to look at the problem after I finish the release for this month; if there's a quick fix, I'll do what I can.  If not, it will just have to wait until I am able to overhaul all the old releases.

My first priority must be providing new releases on schedule so that all members get the minimum 1 new theme per month guaranteed by membership.

Thank you for your understanding. I didn't know about "1 new theme per month" thing... I will apply the fixes provided and wait for other fixes, hoping that you will be able finish your current tasks soon and have time.

Solved:

News Titles can no be clicked on.
Last News title becomes the site title.

Unsolved:

-Adding tags to posts
-Can not move main menu widgets on WP welcome page
-Quick editing posts
-Site expanding
-media uploader does not work

All of the problems you have listed are likely to be caused by the javascript conflict.  As I said, I will be looking into it as soon as I release the theme for this month.

If you would like to provide FTP/Login information for your site, I will be glad to take a look at the code and see what I can do; that will give your site top priority on the update.

I believe the javascript conflict has been resolved.  Let me know if you notice any other issues.

I cannot test all the errors you've mentioned before, due to your WP install being non-english, but I did test the "quick-edit" problem and the issue with dashboard widgets; both of those seem to be resolved, and everything else should be working correctly now too.

Thanks a lot. I hope that you make the template completely compatible with WP 3.4 by the end of September.

The javascript was the only incompatibility I was aware of.  Is there another issue I need to know?
