Please see https://startupwp.com/topic/upgrading/

And if you have any specific questions we would be happy to help.

If you would still like a refund we just need your final confirmation on that.

Thank You

This will be a multi-step customization.

You’ll need a good text/code editor:

http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ (Win)

And you’ll also need to know how to FTP (check with your host support/documentation if you need help with this).

1. Unless you intend on not upgrading to new versions and just managing the theme yourself you’ll need to setup a child theme:

https://startupwp.com/topic/child-theming/

2. Copy over functions.php to the child theme folder and find the widget code inside, the last registered widget area should look like:

register_sidebar( array (
'name' => __('Content Widget Area', 'startup' ),
'id' => 'content-widget-area',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget-container %2$s">',
'after_widget' => "</li>",
'before_title' => '<h3 class="widget-title">',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
) );

Just copy that and add your new one below with whatever details you’d like to use, suggested:

register_sidebar( array (
'name' => __('Far Right Sidebar Widget Area', 'startup' ),
'id' => 'frsidebar-widget-area',
'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget-container %2$s">',
'after_widget' => "</li>",
'before_title' => '<h3 class="widget-title">',
'after_title' => '</h3>',
) );

3. Copy over the template-sidebar-right-right.php file from the /templates/ folder, but just place it in the root of the child theme folder (so no templates folder) and rename to template-sidebar-three-right.php or whatever you like.

4. Open it up, and find this line:

<?php get_footer(); ?>

Just above that paste in:

<div id="frsidebar-sidebar">
<?php if ( is_active_sidebar("frsidebar-widget-area") ) : ?>
<div id="frsidebar" class="widget-area">
<ul class="sid">
<?php dynamic_sidebar("frsidebar-widget-area"); ?>
</ul>
<div class="clear"></div>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>

5. Add the following CSS to the child theme stylesheet:

.page-template-template-sidebar-three-right-php #content{width:48%;padding:0;margin:0 0 0 2%}
#frsidebar-sidebar{width:14%;margin:0 2%;float:left}

6. Upload and activate the child theme like any other theme (though manually – or you could just zip it and do it the automatic way too).

7. Edit a page and switch the template to the new one you just created and save, add widgets to the new sidebar under Appearance > Widgets.

Please Note: This has not been tested. However should work just fine. The only thing that could likely need adjustment is the CSS.

Great, let us know if you need further help.

You’re welcome.

Happy to hear you got it working.

Hi arjan,

I cannot pinpoint the issue for you so I’ve moved support over to:

http://support.dev7studios.com/discussions/nivo-slider-wordpress-plugin/1494-error-when-uploading

to see if they have any insight into what could be causing this.

Thank You

I think I see what’s happening. You’re uploading images, but then you’re clicking “Upload files” again which is actually interrupting the the upload.

Click “Upload files” just once and then select your files either double-clicking or clicking “Open” then stop, don’t do anything. Let your files upload and then adjust your slider settings further or save, but do not click “Upload files” again and you should be good.

See: https://startupwp.com/topic/setting-up-the-slider/

And also you can reference other documentation here:

Hi arjan,

Not entirely sure what you’re trying to do. We can utilize the slider, but you’ll need to setup a child theme:

https://startupwp.com/topic/child-theming/

And I can then instruct you on moving the slider to above the menu if I am indeed understanding what you want correctly?

Thank You

Just with the plugin options page? But, the slider itself is appearing fine for you on your website in all browsers? Just want to make sure for quality assurance.

Just to be sure, everything is resolved now? Just a temporary hiccup?

You’ll want to setup a child theme:

https://startupwp.com/topic/child-theming/

Then copy over header.php from your parent theme. In your theme options you’ll want to choose the logo option. Then find the following in header.php:

<?php
if (!is_singular()) {echo '<h1>';}
echo '<a href="'.home_url().'/" title="'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo('name')).'" rel="home">';
if ($options['logo']!="")
echo '<img src="'.esc_url($options['logo']).'" alt="'.esc_attr(get_bloginfo('name')).'" id="logo" />';
else
echo esc_html(bloginfo( 'name' ));
echo '</a>';
if (!is_singular() ) {echo '</h1>';} ?>

Either above or below this block of code, you’ll want to add:

<h1>Your Site Title</h1>
