== About Lobster ==
Launch your new site with Lobster, built with Bootstrap 3.0. Lobster is lightweight and fully responsive. You can add your own background, set page layouts and more. Lobster supports eight post formats: Video, Image, Aside, Status, Audio, Quote, Link and Gallery. Recommends using Jetpack and is compatible with bbPress & BuddyPress. Built with Google Fonts, hence 'Lobster', for improved typeface readability and works perfectly across all devices!
== NOTES ==
== HEADER IMAGE ==
To enable the Header Image in the Theme Customizer to go Custom Header and check to the checkbox to enable this feature.
== INSTALL CAROUSEL ==
To use the Carousel on the Front Page as displayed in Demo. Download CTP Bootstrap Carousel from: http://wordpress.org/plugins/cpt-bootstrap-carousel/
Open ctp-bootstrap-carousel.php in a text-editor and on line 128 which reads: " 'showcaption' => 'true', " change the showcaption to 'false' like so:
" 'showcaption' => 'false', "
This now hides the caption and the read more link, which do not render well with responsive design.
== CHANGE JUMBO ICON ==
To change the Star / Jumbo Icon (icon-star-empty) to any one of Font Awesome's 361 different options go to:
....your/path/to/wp-content/themes/lobster/inc/theme-options.php
on line: 39 you'll see -> ''
Simply change the 'icon-star-empty' to any other icon supported by font-awesome. Below is a link to their range of icons.
see: http://fortawesome.github.io/Font-Awesome/icons/
Example: If you want to replace the icon-star-empty with the Globe icon - 'icon-globe', then you would change line 39 of your lobster/inc/theme-options.php as below:
You could also just delete line 39 to get rid of the icon altogether - it's all up to you!
