Note: Timthumb has now become depreciated from within our theme. As of the release of version 5.0 we announced that within 60 days, we’d be removing Timthumb and no longer offering support for it. We strongly recommend you select from one of the two alternatives if you were previously using Timthumb. To change this, simply log into your WordPress Dashboard, locate “Appearance > Theme Options > General Settings” and you can change the Image Resizer scripts here (AquaResizer is default).
Important: Our updating the jQuery scripts may result in conflicts with existing plugins that may have previously worked. We cannot guarantee that all plugins will work with our theme, but those that are of popular request we’ll take into consideration and review. We do have a thread started in our Support Forums labeled “Supported Plugins: List your active plugins!” that we’d recommend checking out. Add the plugins that work for you, as well those that you’ve discovered conflict with our theme.
Reporting Bugs and/or Issues
We offer buyer support only on our self-hosted Support Forums:
http://www.ourwebmedia.com/support/
When reporting a bug, or opening a new thread, we strongly encourage you to read our Post Guidelines. They’re there to benefit you and us while trying to assist you with your posted concerns. Knowing things such as “current version of the theme” and “WordPress version”, as well a “link to the issue page” as reference can help us, as well speed up our ability to resolve it.
We take bug / issue reports with a high priority and will do our absolute best to ensure that they’re resolved as quickly as possible.
We also ask you bear with us during new releases, as at times reports of issues can be higher than normal and require more time.
