Fhi-zin, free AJAX Wordpress theme template for Portfolio and Photography

October 28th, 2008

AJAX, CSS, Javascript, Noteworthy, Photography, Projects, Themes, Wordpress

Fhi-zin is one of the best Wordpress themes for Portfolio and Photography websites on the web, and with its unique design it doesn’t even look like a Wordpress website ! On top of that, its completely driven by an AJAX engine, is Googlefriendly, SEO-optimised and capable of attaching an unlimited amount of images on each post.

Like I said before, Fhi-zin is completely AJAX-driven. It’s powered by my com.bydust.ajax class, which automatically converts a static website into an AJAX-driven website. The theme runs smoothly on computers with javascript disabled, for example older browsers and search engines. Whenever a javascript error occurs - which should be never, but you never know - the ajax class should commit suicide and your theme will run without the ajax-functions. Offcourse that never happens, its just in case ;-)

Fhi-zin will most likely be used for portfolio sites and photography galleries which will use Wordpress as a CMS-system. The possibility of attaching an unlimited amount of high-resolution images to each post can be used to create a separate gallery from each post in your Wordpress site, which you can group in the standard Wordpress categories. There is no maximum dimension size for these images, but if you pick large dimensions some users may have problems viewing the images since they dont fit on their screen. If you keep the dimensions smaller than 1000×700 things should be fine :)

Apart from the unlimited images, you can define external links and downloadable files for each post too. There is a live demo available for you, and the theme is up for download on Wordpress.org.

When the theme is activated, there will be an information page available in your Wordpress administration. This can be very usefull for adding images and links. If you still have some questions or remarks, please post them here.

For all users who want scrollbars in the post/page content text, I’ve made a modified theme which includes scrollbars. You can download it here. If you already uploaded the Fhi-zin theme, you just need to replace the files “style.css”, “single.php” and “js/main.js”.

I’ve found already quite a few websites who use Fhi-zin, here are a few nice examples:

Could you possibly help me out?

I posted something earlier today regards to text on the main page and the menu options above the images on the left hand side.
I have had a look at your site and you seem to have nailed both of them. Please could you advise how you did this.
Also you have other pages where you have the ‘coverflow’ with no text, how have you done this?

Thanks in advance.

Hey Nick,
I can see you have been inundated with questions to do with every little aspect of what can only be described as the perfect portfolio wordpress webpage. So thanks!

I have read through every comment that is still visible on this particular post and I can’t find the answer for two issues.

1. I want to have text on the home page like you have on your demo.
2. The option to view image above the image on each page.

Unfortunately, I’m not 100% familiar with PHP and would appreciate your help (or anyone elses for that matter) in resolving the issues I’m faced with.

I look foraward to a reply.

Thanks again.

CarolCjo says:

Like the look of the site. I’m a graphic designer - I activated the “show categories in menu” widget - but I want to have some ’static’ text on each category page while showing those posts. (for example on my web portfolio category page I’d like to have a “welcome to my web samples…” text.)

I have read and read thru WP documentation about Category templates but adding category.php template in Fhi-Zin causes an error. Which is the template used for the category pages? and what else do I have to mod to make this work?

Also no luck with permalinks either. had setting to “almost pretty” - using “index.php/%category%/%post%/ but that caused the category menu items to give 404 error.

couldn’t make the pretty permalinks work at all. (Win server - using the web_config. file no go).

thanks, CJo

Tiffany Necklaces are probably the most popular kind of sterling silver these days. Its immense popularity stems from the fact that its attractive designs hails in the hands of famous designers. Apart from your really obvious reason how the designs are absolutely captivating this line also boasts of its very cost-effective tag costs. Now, with the availability of sterling silver jewelries inside the likeness of Tiffany styles, people from all walks of life can afford completely alluring and glamorous jewelry pieces.

Fundamentally Tiffany Jewellery, the selling point of Tiffany jewelries could be the reality that it is possible to get exactly the same pricey look of a actual Tiffany jewelry with out spending as very much. The charge of these are roughly about 20% of the cost of the authentic ones and much less than 10% of individuals products which have valuable stones. The big difference in costs does not mean that the materials getting utilized in jewelry are inferior, Tiffany Bangles also use .925 sterling silver that is exactly the same material as costly designer jewelries. The additional noticeable big difference in cost is in between products which have precious stones, a diamond when replaced with an equally stunning cubic zirconia is just as ideal aesthetically however the selling price drops down to about 1-3% of the expense of a real diamond.

Tiffany Jewellery are so genuine searching that some unscrupulous suppliers may possibly attempt to pass them on as originals. It’s sometimes tough to tell the replica in the unique given that the excellent of the replica is often as very good as the authentic. For the personal very good, in the event you want an authentic Tiffany then you may as well obtain it from Tiffany Necklaces or any identified licensed re-seller.

hi Nick and all,

I guess the same question goes here, how do you add text to the welcome page. I am able to identify that you did it on the index.php (main index template) but when I paste the text, my right side menu moves to the bottom of the page and that is what I am trying to find out, where is the placement…any help is appreciated!

The rest was perfect, so thank you very much.

Yours faithfully.

This really is a great theme! Thanks a lot. I’ve spend quite the hours now working with it and it looks great.
There is one little thing though, inevitably, the photo’s attached to a post (all in the correct way) not always load in the pop-up screen (is that what you call ‘lightbox’?). Sometimes it just stays a white square with the loading symbol. At first I thought it was a browser-issue, since it wouldn’t load in explorer or firefox. But it also affects my browser (chrome), so I don’t really have a clue where the problem lies. Any ideas by chance?

I have been playing with this theme and seem to be having the same problems as most posters here, but I cannot see the solutions posted. I cannot get the 120×120 small images to work on the main page, despite using the custom fields command. The inner post image works with lightbox but the post thumbnail doesn’t show either. None of the thumbnails work in fact. Has anyone been able to work this out?

jeni says:

hi there.
I’m having some trouble displaying photos in a post using the custom fields. I began by using your key names “image1_file” which works perfectly when you have less than 10 images. But when you add more images they re-arrange to put any file name where the number starts with a one first. eg if I have 14 images it will order the images from 10 - 14 and then follow with 1 - 9. I have tried to re-name the custom field keys to fix this but now the link to the images doesn’t display at all.
Do you have any suggestions?
many thanks

Hi everybody

Has anyone tried (and succed of course) to embed Flv files in the light box ?

I tried with differents tools, and methods, and the best result I get is with “FlashInLightbox” build on lightbox 2.04 and swfobjects 2.01(see http://code.google.com/p/flashinlightbox/), Flv is found the lightbox works fine but the player don’t start. Seems like there is a conflict with the lightbox used for displaying still images (the one provided in Nick’ package), but the box for still images continues to work fine.

I added lines to the fhi-zin “single.php” so that I have the link to the video as well as it was a still image, and this link open the lightbox in wich the flv player is embed. But he dont want a start ¤#!¤ !

Nick ?? some one ? an idea about that ??

Thanks in advance

Hey Nick,

I’m really impressed. This theme is terrific! But I’m having some issues with the ’slides’. Like here: http://www.bydust.com/examples/fhi-zin/#/examples/fhi-zin/category/photography/ I’m trying to figure out for hours how I can make my images appear in a row. The only result I get is the charming “image not found” picture and the option to view 3 images above. The lightbox is working totally fine and I read the instructions a thousand times but I just don’t get it. Maybe you could help me?

Hello there,

First my greetings to Nick for your great job, and many thanks for sharing it.(and sorry for my poor english if I were to make mistakes)

As many of us here, I had this problem with viewing the thumbnailed images with reflection : those famous “image_small_120×120″.

Looking in the html code of the element, an image with an height=”NaN” was searched (and of course not found) even with the “image not found” image.

After reading all the posts here (uuhh!) and trying differents solutions, the only way I finally found was to by-pass those lines in the reflect.php :
```
 /*
    if (ereg_replace('[[:alpha:][:space:]()]+', '', $gd_info['GD Version']) < '2.0.1')
    {
        echo 'GD library is too old. Version 2.0.1 or later is required, and 2.0.28 is strongly recommended.';
        exit();
    }*/
```
May be this will help some of you…

And Btw, if someone have any idea about the reason I have to do that…he will be very welcome
(I’m actually working in local-mode : apache server - php 5.3.0 - with GDsupport enabled and GDversion bundled 2.0.34 compatible.)

Hi, Nick. Beautiful theme! I searched through about 200 themes to find one for my business/portfolio site. Yours was the only one that really stood out and looked like it would suit my personality.

That being said, I am new to WordPress and am having some problems. I hope you can help me with these:
1. I created pages for main categories (Home, About Us, Contact, etc.) and numbered them but they still show up in the navigation in alphabetical order. Any idea why?
2. Because this won’t function as a blog, I don’t need any “comment” fields. I was able to alter the code to delete the footer, but two of my pages show up with “Comments” in the upper left corner. How do I delete those?
3. I also don’t want my posts to show the date/time info. I went through all previous posts and found a reply from you to alter the “single.php” file after “the_title” function and to add “display:none” in the style.css sheet. I still have dates and times. Any other ideas?
4. I have uploaded images for the home page and portfolio posts. They show correctly on a preview, but not on a published page. My other two pages are correct and I’ve followed the same instructions so now I’m stumped.

Thank you for any help. Once I figure out how to fix these issues, I’ll finish building out my portfolio pages with more posts and will tackle adding a contact form. That might lead to more questions!

Hi Nick,
Awesome theme! So clean and classy…I love it. I have modified it quite a bit and managed to work out most of the details, but there is one thing I can’t figure out. I would like to display the “caption” that I assign to an image in the WP-library, instead of the “There is an attached image for [post title].
I think the change would happen here:
<a class="bda_ignore" title="There's an attached image for ''" href="" rel="lightbox">View image</a>
But I don’t know what to do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Nick!

F.o.a.: This theme looks amazing! Nice work ;-) But unfortunately I can’t see any uploaded pictures or photos. Firefox doesn’t screen them at all. And the carousel doesn’t work either. I already tried typing x manually in the custom field (image_small_120×120) instead of copying it, but nothing happened.

All my uploades pictures are wp-content/uploads.

Info from Wordpress Dashboard: GD Version : 2.0 or higher | # PHP Version : 5.2.6-1+lenny4 | # PHP Safe Mode : off

My admin says, that I have got the newest GDlib available. When I check GDlib with the reflect script it says: “GD library is too old. Version 2.0.1 or later is required, and 2.0.28 is strongly recommended.”

I don’t know what to do…

Hey Nick!

thanks for your efforts, that’s the best portfolio WP theme ever (and I’ve seen dozens)!

here are few tips on how to improve it:
* implement a plugin to manage images attached to a post e.g. nggallery, probably the most sophisticated piece of code for gallery managing. It will save loads of time, specially if you have to manage dozens of galleries daily, bet lots of people gonna appreciate that move
* my personal request - is there any way to setup the index page carousel in single post? so it could display the images attached to the post? It seems quite easy, but since I’m no coder I’m only able to do some very basic changes :)

Thanks in advance!
btw why there’s no paypal donate link? ;) I know it won’t pay your bills, but at least it’ll give people show their appreciation.

I posted something earlier today regards to text on the main page and the menu options above the images on the left hand side. I have had a look at your site and you seem to have nailed both of them. Please could you advise how you did this. Also you have other pages where you have the ‘coverflow’ with no text, how have you done this? Thanks in advance. Nate #417 August 18th, 2010 Nathaniel says: Hey Nick, I can see you have been inundated with questions to do with every little aspect of what can only be described as the perfect portfolio wordpress webpage. So thanks! I have read through every comment that is still visible on this particular post and I can’t find the answer for two issues. 1. I want to have text on the home page like you have on your demo. 2. The option to view image above the image on each page. Unfortunately, I’m not 100% familiar with PHP and would appreciate your help (or anyone elses for that matter) in resolving the issues I’m faced with. I look foraward to a reply. Thanks again. #416 August 18th, 2010 Jennifer says: please help :[ i cant for the life of me figure out how to change the 120×120 pictures. i have resized and hosted on WP, using the link from there & im still seeing the lighthouse. please help!

I’m a graphic designer - I activated the “show categories in menu” widget - but I want to have some ’static’ text on each category page while showing those posts. (for example on my web portfolio category page I’d like to have a “welcome to my web samples…” text.) I have read and read thru WP documentation about Category templates but adding category.php template in Fhi-Zin causes an error. Which is the template used for the category pages? and what else do I have to mod to make this work? Also no luck with permalinks either. had setting to “almost pretty” - using “index.php/%category%/%post%/ but that caused the category menu items to give 404 error. couldn’t make the pretty permalinks work at all. (Win server - using the web_config. file no go). thanks, CJo #412 July 24th, 2010 tiffany outlet says: good site! #411 July 13th, 2010 darma says: it doens’t work in my blog. #410 July 11th, 2010 Tiffany says: it doens’t work #409 June 30th, 2010 Carole Hayes says: Never mind!

(When you go to a post, ALL of the pics are loaded on the page, instead of a “view photos” link that opens the lightbox.) Can you help, please? The site is here: http://www.newvantagephotography.com Thanks! #407 June 19th, 2010 Kelsincunnifs says: Tiffany Necklaces are probably the most popular kind of sterling silver these days. Its immense popularity stems from the fact that its attractive designs hails in the hands of famous designers. Apart from your really obvious reason how the designs are absolutely captivating this line also boasts of its very cost-effective tag costs. Now, with the availability of sterling silver jewelries inside the likeness of Tiffany styles, people from all walks of life can afford completely alluring and glamorous jewelry pieces. Fundamentally Tiffany Jewellery, the selling point of Tiffany jewelries could be the reality that it is possible to get exactly the same pricey look of a actual Tiffany jewelry with out spending as very much. The charge of these are roughly about 20% of the cost of the authentic ones and much less than 10% of individuals products which have valuable stones. The big difference in costs does not mean that the materials getting utilized in jewelry are inferior, Tiffany Bangles also use .925 sterling silver that is exactly the same material as costly designer jewelries. The additional noticeable big difference in cost is in between products which have precious stones, a diamond when replaced with an equally stunning cubic zirconia is just as ideal aesthetically however the selling price drops down to about 1-3% of the expense of a real diamond. Tiffany Jewellery are so genuine searching that some unscrupulous suppliers may possibly attempt to pass them on as originals. It’s sometimes tough to tell the replica in the unique given that the excellent of the replica is often as very good as the authentic. For the personal very good, in the event you want an authentic Tiffany then you may as well obtain it from Tiffany Necklaces or any identified licensed re-seller. http://www.tiffany.com/Shared/Images/header/logo.gif #406 June 19th, 2010 моддинг корпусов says: Большой пост Занесу в закладки.

I am able to identify that you did it on the index.php (main index template) but when I paste the text, my right side menu moves to the bottom of the page and that is what I am trying to find out, where is the placement…any help is appreciated! #401 June 6th, 2010 Byron Castillo H says: Dear Nick, Greetings from Nicaragua and thank you very much for your work. I recently found this theme and wanted to ask how I can add the welcome message. (It seems that some people asked the same question but can not find answers in this blog). The rest was perfect, so thank you very much. Yours faithfully. #400 May 25th, 2010 Romain says: Hello everybody ! I’m a French student and i need help to edit the famous reflect.php. In fact, PNG are not supported, a black background is added. It is possible or not to delete this background ? Thanks for all ! #399 May 18th, 2010 Ilori says: Hey, how do you insert a welcome message, like the one that appears in the demo of this theme? #398 May 11th, 2010 Thomas says: This really is a great theme! Thanks a lot. I’ve spend quite the hours now working with it and it looks great. There is one little thing though, inevitably, the photo’s attached to a post (all in the correct way) not always load in the pop-up screen (is that what you call ‘lightbox’?). Sometimes it just stays a white square with the loading symbol. At first I thought it was a browser-issue, since it wouldn’t load in explorer or firefox. But it also affects my browser (chrome), so I don’t really have a clue where the problem lies. Any ideas by chance? #397 May 11th, 2010 Erik says: I can not make right side pages appear. What are they? pages? posts? categories? The ABOUT page doesn’t appear. #396 May 7th, 2010 behzad says: Ok, I read somewhere that this theme will not work locally, I assume that means if using XAMPP to run the site. Is there a way around this as I need to demonstrate the finished site before committing it to the server? Is this why the thumbs don’t work? #395 May 7th, 2010 behzad says: I have been playing with this theme and seem to be having the same problems as most posters here, but I cannot see the solutions posted. I cannot get the 120×120 small images to work on the main page, despite using the custom fields command. The inner post image works with lightbox but the post thumbnail doesn’t show either. None of the thumbnails work in fact. Has anyone been able to work this out? #394 April 19th, 2010 Sandro says: Hi, I have a problem with the image_small_120×120 … I have read all comments but I don’t find the solution. My key : image_small_120×120 The link : http://sandra.contat.perso.sfr.fr/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/essai.jpg What is the problem ? Help me :) #393 April 10th, 2010 jeni says: hi there. I’m having some trouble displaying photos in a post using the custom fields. I began by using your key names “image1_file” which works perfectly when you have less than 10 images. But when you add more images they re-arrange to put any file name where the number starts with a one first. eg if I have 14 images it will order the images from 10 - 14 and then follow with 1 - 9. I have tried to re-name the custom field keys to fix this but now the link to the images doesn’t display at all. Do you have any suggestions? many thanks #392 March 22nd, 2010 jimic says: Hi Problem is solved, with the shadowbox (see http://www.shadowbox-js.com/ ) which replace the lightbox2.04 and is abble to embed pics as well as videos… Site will be soon on line now yippi bye #391 March 19th, 2010 jimic says: Hi everybody Has anyone tried (and succed of course) to embed Flv files in the light box ? I tried with differents tools, and methods, and the best result I get is with “FlashInLightbox” build on lightbox 2.04 and swfobjects 2.01(see http://code.google.com/p/flashinlightbox/), Flv is found the lightbox works fine but the player don’t start. Seems like there is a conflict with the lightbox used for displaying still images (the one provided in Nick’ package), but the box for still images continues to work fine. I added lines to the fhi-zin “single.php” so that I have the link to the video as well as it was a still image, and this link open the lightbox in wich the flv player is embed. But he dont want a start ¤#!¤ ! Nick ?? some one ? an idea about that ??

Aaaand I’ve found the solution. All the time i thought that the carousel (did I douchebag say slides?! Sorry, it’s already pretty late) is a function that automtically appears (like a gallery). Now I fixed it and I can finally get some sleep ;-) Bye! #385 February 27th, 2010 Jo says: Hey Nick, I’m really impressed. This theme is terrific! But I’m having some issues with the ’slides’. Like here: http://www.bydust.com/examples/fhi-zin/#/examples/fhi-zin/category/photography/ I’m trying to figure out for hours how I can make my images appear in a row. The only result I get is the charming “image not found” picture and the option to view 3 images above. The lightbox is working totally fine and I read the instructions a thousand times but I just don’t get it. Maybe you could help me? Best regards, Jo #384 February 17th, 2010 jimic says: oupsss ! think I made a little mistake using the “ " to insert the code sample... sorry for this #383 February 17th, 2010 jimic says: Hello there, First my greetings to Nick for your great job, and many thanks for sharing it.(and sorry for my poor english if I were to make mistakes) As many of us here, I had this problem with viewing the thumbnailed images with reflection : those famous “image_small_120×120″. Looking in the html code of the element, an image with an height=”NaN” was searched (and of course not found) even with the “image not found” image. After reading all the posts here (uuhh!) and trying differents solutions, the only way I finally found was to by-pass those lines in the reflect.php : /* if (ereg_replace('[[:alpha:][:space:]()]+', '', $gd_info['GD Version']) < '2.0.1') { echo 'GD library is too old. Version 2.0.1 or later is required, and 2.0.28 is strongly recommended.'; exit(); }/ May be this will help some of you… And Btw, if someone have any idea about the reason I have to do that…he will be very welcome (I’m actually working in local-mode : apache server - php 5.3.0 - with GDsupport enabled and GDversion bundled 2.0.34 compatible.) #382 February 3rd, 2010 jean says: Hi I really want to use the Fhi-zin theme for wordpress and i have incorporated it into my site …the only thing i do not now to change is the message on the home page ……. “Hi there, welcome on the Fhi-zin example blog.

It is available for download on http://www.bydust.com.” Where do i change this….please help Jean #381 February 3rd, 2010 Tiffany says: Hello, I am unable to get the photo gallery/lightbox feature to work. I’ve attempted to follow the directions in comment #94 by adding custom fields, but have been unsuccessful in getting the links to display. I have also tried going into the image library in Word Press to “attach” the image to a post. No success. What do you suggest? Let me know if I need to provide you with additional detail. Thanks in advance! #380 January 26th, 2010 Debi says: Sorry. I think I forgot to include the website URL when my husband started talking to me. Please let me know if you need an admin password or anything to look around. Debi #379 January 26th, 2010 Debi says: Hi, Nick. Beautiful theme! I searched through about 200 themes to find one for my business/portfolio site. Yours was the only one that really stood out and looked like it would suit my personality. That being said, I am new to WordPress and am having some problems. I hope you can help me with these: 1. I created pages for main categories (Home, About Us, Contact, etc.) and numbered them but they still show up in the navigation in alphabetical order. Any idea why? 2. Because this won’t function as a blog, I don’t need any “comment” fields. I was able to alter the code to delete the footer, but two of my pages show up with “Comments” in the upper left corner. How do I delete those? 3. I also don’t want my posts to show the date/time info. I went through all previous posts and found a reply from you to alter the “single.php” file after “the_title” function and to add “display:none” in the style.css sheet. I still have dates and times. Any other ideas? 4. I have uploaded images for the home page and portfolio posts. They show correctly on a preview, but not on a published page. My other two pages are correct and I’ve followed the same instructions so now I’m stumped. Thank you for any help. Once I figure out how to fix these issues, I’ll finish building out my portfolio pages with more posts and will tackle adding a contact form. That might lead to more questions! Debi 4.

I have modified it quite a bit and managed to work out most of the details, but there is one thing I can’t figure out. I would like to display the “caption” that I assign to an image in the WP-library, instead of the “There is an attached image for [post title]. I think the change would happen here: <a class="bda_ignore" title="There's an attached image for ''" href="" rel="lightbox">View image</a> But I don’t know what to do. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ~Dale #374 December 30th, 2009 ashley says: Hi! I am in need of some assistance with customizing this template. 1. How can I make the post section (with the text) bigger? It feels a little cramped the way it is. 2. How can I replace the white/grey background with an image? 3. How do I get multiple images to show up as a gallery in a post? Thank you! -Ashley #373 December 28th, 2009 Fab says: Hi Nick! F.o.a.: This theme looks amazing! Nice work ;-) But unfortunately I can’t see any uploaded pictures or photos. Firefox doesn’t screen them at all. And the carousel doesn’t work either. I already tried typing x manually in the custom field (image_small_120×120) instead of copying it, but nothing happened. All my uploades pictures are wp-content/uploads. Info from Wordpress Dashboard: GD Version : 2.0 or higher \| # PHP Version : 5.2.6-1+lenny4 \| # PHP Safe Mode : off My admin says, that I have got the newest GDlib available. When I check GDlib with the reflect script it says: “GD library is too old. Version 2.0.1 or later is required, and 2.0.28 is strongly recommended.” I don’t know what to do… #372 December 9th, 2009 Stéphanie says: Hi, I like very much your template and I just want to know how do you process to make a link “View image” which opened Lightbox… I don’t understand anything to lightbox and I would like to do the same effect than you for your photography with mine. Maybe the question even been asked but there is a lot of comment’s page. Help me please ! #371 November 24th, 2009 Gadget says: Hey Nick! thanks for your efforts, that’s the best portfolio WP theme ever (and I’ve seen dozens)! here are few tips on how to improve it: implement a plugin to manage images attached to a post e.g. nggallery, probably the most sophisticated piece of code for gallery managing. It will save loads of time, specially if you have to manage dozens of galleries daily, bet lots of people gonna appreciate that move * my personal request - is there any way to setup the index page carousel in single post? so it could display the images attached to the post? It seems quite easy, but since I’m no coder I’m only able to do some very basic changes :) Thanks in advance! btw why there’s no paypal donate link? ;) I know it won’t pay your bills, but at least it’ll give people show their appreciation.
