Title: Permalinks and layout question
Post by: soundworks on September 10, 2013, 02:49
Hi guys! I've also made the jump with Symbiostock. I have two questions:

1. I have changed the permalinks to "post name". However, the URL of the images include "/image/stock-image-by-(my username)". How can I change it to display the name of the photo.

2. How can I change the layout of the first page? It says "Nothing Found" for posts. I want to remove the posts section and put a slideshow for instance.

Thank you in advance.  :)

Sorry  - had moved to the new forum at symbiostock.org  and forgot to visit here.

1.
Have you put a title in for the photo -
Upload images
Process to drafts
Edit in the Stock Images (ladybird), All Images section to add title, description, SEO etc

2.
Have you checked out the tutorial on the Help page in the Symbiostock (Bee) section and Amanda's tutorials - I have a link in my signature, these might both help you.

3. 
Some of us are now offering a setting up service which might help if you get totally stuck?

I can't make it right  :-\. I want to place the slider where it says "nothing found" but just can't find the option in the customisation menus.

That is a post (think blog)
You need to make a Page (symbiostock pages) for a slider.  Go into  Pages , find your Home Page and edit that
Go to your Theme (or hopefully you have created a child theme ) and edit it , make the static front page your home page

Thank you again! It worked. One more thing - can I make the slideshow to take the whole width of the page? I want to remove those elements on the right -- for instance featured images -- to remove the whole right panel.
