@steven2 , I have setup and demo for the newly developing theme - http://demo.amiyasahu.com/donut/

---

Thanks Ami!!!!

---

.qa-q-list {
float: none;
}

I guess float:left is having problem if a related questions widget is added at bottom and then google ads are added below it. float:none fixed the issue for me..

will check and fix in next version , thank you arjun

Answer 1

Your theme is very very beautiful.
I think it would be interesting the possibility of it working with On Site Notifications.

it is added now

Answer 2

Hi Amiya,

Donut is a wonderful theme. Actually I have on site notification working with it (don't remember exactly how it is fixed). One issue I have found is this:

On the category list on the right side bar- there is count of the questions. This works fine. But when we enable the category for unanswered questions, there is no count and hence the category list gets scrambled a bit. I think I got this fixed by adding "float:right" to the below CSS class and removing some attribute from the category item class. 

.qa-nav-cat-note 

One more cool feature would be the add numbering for the questions displayed. I had this request from some users. On a single page this is not very difficult to do - I don't know if numbering can be done for all questions in display, but at least for a page this would be nice to have. 

Thank you.

Hi Arjun , Thanks for reporting the bug . I will look into it and fix it soon .

Created a issue for following it up - https://github.com/amiyasahu/Donut/issues/24

This issue has been fixed

Thank you Ami :)

Answer 3

Update - 

I saw many users do not like too many buttons for the questions , answers and comments . So I have updated the theme with a new feature . Which allows the extra buttons collapsed into a single button and shows when users clicks the action button .

Hope you guys will like it .

Download This theme from Store

Next plan - 

Now next is to build a Admin panel with all the configuration options for the theme .

Comments

I'd change position of favorites button and make it more visible.

Feel free to fork , make improvements and send a PR . Thanks

Answer 4

Please is there anyway to add quote to be used with the editor just like forum software.

Also, giving the users option to remove the header will be great. The header is fine but I really don't need it. The header I mean is this

Comments

yes you can -

if you want to allow users to close the banner you need to edit the user option file .
After this -
https://github.com/amiyasahu/Donut/blob/master/options/donut-user-options.php#L8
'allow_user_to_close_home_page_banner' => true ,

and if you want to close the Banner totally , add like this

'show_home_page_banner'                => false ,

PS - You can find the available options in the the default options file (they are documented) -

https://github.com/amiyasahu/Donut/blob/master/utils/donut-system-defaults-options.php

I will be importing them to the admin panel in next version , so that you guys can play with them right from the admin panel .

---

Ok thanks, what of the quote option? Is it possible with the theme customization?
Also is there any way to use horizontal rating in the mobile device as  the default rating occupy some space in small mobile screen. This is available in Cleastrap theme.

---

What do you mean  by "quote option"

---

Quote answers instead commenting on theme. Found in Forums.  Instead of commenting on users answer, you quote it while replying.

---

You can do this by using a plugin .

---

Please do you have the plugin? I don't mid buying it. This comment system is not my style, so distracting.

---

I dont have a plugin for this currently . If you want you can PM me for a custom development .

---

Now you can do all the customization from the theme admin panel . Update your theme from the admin panel .

Answer 5

Update - 

Now Donut theme can be customized directly from admin panel .

Same problem here! After clicking on "Donut theme settings" i get this:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function qa_admin_check_privileges() in mypath/qa-plugin/Donut-admin/admin/admin-panel.php on line 29

---

Which q2a version do you use ?

---

Oouch , it is a bug .. Will fix it now

---

Fixed it now ... https://github.com/amiyasahu/Donut/commit/2496625a9870fc6a74cbc519dfb74aa978aefa34

There were some interference with other plugin so I did not notice

Answer 6

Few feature requests:-

1. On the categories page, it will be very elegant if we can display icons of most active users, recent questions/answers against each category.

2. On the main menu "Ask A question" can be shortened to "Ask".  or even better as a button with just Ask written on it.

3. Infinite scroll

There are some more in my mind, if you think what I am talking makes sense than PM me and we can talk.

Comments

1. It should be part of a separate plugin , I dont think it should be included in a theme
2. This can be done by modifying the layer (Just wanted to keep it simple , not too much modify q2a data in the theme , may not be good for all the users ) . I will think a better approach for this
3. There is already a plugin for this http://www.question2answer.org/qa/27839/

Answer 7

@Ami check out this css bug. "Show view count in question lists:" is enabled.

Comments
