Thanks for the idea. I got it working using your concept.
For reference for anyone else wanting both themes available in a multi-site install;
1. Fully installed and activate the Evolve in the network-admin plugins section.
2. Fully installed and activate the Alora in the network-admin plugins section (this replaces t4p-core plugin with a slightly different variant)
3. Extract the Evolve theme on my local machine and rename folder \library\plugins\t4p-core\t4p-core to \library\plugins\t4p-core\t4p-core-Evolve
4. Edit t4p-core.php /* Plugin Name: to Theme4Press Core Evolve …
5. zip this plugin and uploaded to my wp-content/plugins folder then unzip to it’s own folder (should be t4p-core-Evolve) .
6. Now deactivate the Theme4Press Core plugin in the network-admin plugins section.
7. For each specific site under its own plugin section you activate the appropriate plugin based on the theme you want.
Thanks for the great theme – I look forward to having this integrated so that future updates don’t become an issue for me.
Roman, that makes me sad {:-(
I like Alora for my more complicated site, but Evolve for the simplicity – the effort to replicate the Evolve pages in Alora was enough for me to choose Evolve. Having identically named plugins with different coding is unusual – surely the evolve plugin could be named something different and installed alongside.
I purchased the two themes in the Alora+evolve plus pack thinking they were independent, so to find out that they aren’t compatible with each other is disappointing. It would seem then that I have no use for evolve as in the multi-site config I cannot rely on any evolve features. The only way anyone would benefit from Alora+evolve plus pack is for completely independent installs.
Is there a features request/suggestions area where this might be ticketed? The only other solution would be me requesting a refund for the Evolve component of my purchase (I don’t want this as I like everything I’ve seen so far in both themes).
I meant that I have multisite installed not WPMU, and another site is using Alora.
Thanks for the quick reply. I am using WPMU, so it is showing only 1 theme4press Core plugin.
