Sitecore Rocks - Package - Add Dependencies for Multiple Items - sitecore

VS Ultimate - 2013
sitecore rocks - 1.5.0.0
With sitecore rocks you can make a package and include the dependencies for any selected item. I would like to grab all of the dependencies for multiple items. Is there a way to do this?
...gregory

You'll have to add dependencies manually for each root item as multi-select actions for Sitecore Rocks packages aren't currently supported.

Error installing new theme in opencart 2

I am new to opencart and I am using opencart version 2.3.0.2 and working on xampp localhost.
I tried to install new theme (simplica free theme) by copying the theme files(catalog, system ) to my project folder which already have those 4 folders(admin,catalog,image,system). So it merges with those 2 folders.
When I go back to my backend extensions>extensions and select modules, I can't see any new module. Under extension>extension>themes, I can only see my default theme. also under system>setting>mystore, I can only see default store theme under theme option.
Did I do anything wrong? or what should I do to install a new theme?
Please help. Thanks in advance
I found the solution, hope this may help someone with similar problem.
I had to go to extensions>extensions then select themes then had click edit button of the default store theme. Under general> theme directory, I was able to select my theme.

Sitecore freezes when trying to define WFFM (Web Forms For Marketers) restricted placeholders

I have the latest version of WFMM (Web Forms For Marketers) for Sitecore. When I try to define the restricted placeholders from Desktop -> All Applications -> Web Forms for Maketers -> Restricted Placeholders everything freezes, including IIS.
I have no errors in the browser console or Sitecore's log.txt.
I has same issue with Sitecore 8.0 rev. 150621 (Update-4) and Web Forms for Marketers 8.0 rev. 150625. Sitecore Support helped me:
The //*[contains(#Allowed Controls, '{0}')] query runs on all items from the database. We apologize for any inconvenience this issue may have caused.
I changed the query to search items only under the root item: .//*[contains(#Allowed Controls, '{0}')]
Could you please follow the steps below to address the issue:
Copy the attached Sitecore.Support.406505.dll assembly to /bin folder.
Change the implementation class for forms:selectplaceholders command in forms.config file:
from
<command name="forms:selectplaceholders" type="Sitecore.Forms.Core.Commands.RestrinctingPlaceholders,Sitecore.Forms.Core" />
to
<command name="forms:selectplaceholders" type="Sitecore.Support.Forms.Core.Commands.RestrinctingPlaceholders,Sitecore.Support.406505" />
Here is the linked to the mentioned dll: Sitecore.Support.406505.dll
Restricting Placeholder dialog is an quick way to add WFFM sublayout form and view form to Allowed Controls field in placeholder settings. Selection of placeholders is maintained on last step of installation of module. Everything is already installed, you just need to follow manual poststeps(attach DB, etc). You can continue without solving this problem.
And if you don't have a huge amount of placeholders then it is quicker to do it using Allowed Controls field rather than trying to find root of the problem.

Sitecore TDS Deployment __Standard Values

I'm running into an issue with Hedgehog's TDS - I have some presentation details specified on my Base Page template. The presentation details reside in the __Renderings field of __Standard Values. I've set the item to "Deploy Once", but it appears that Sitecore ignores that setting on __Standard Values with the package deployment (UpdateInstallationWizard). If I update any of the presentation details on the production site, they are lost with my next deployment.
For now I've excluded the item from my production build - but it's kind of a pain.
I've opened a ticket with Hedgehog - they say it's a Sitecore problem. I opened a ticket with Sitecore - they say that UpdateInstallationWizard wasn't meant for use outside of sitecore.
Is there a good way to get around this? Should I not be specifying any presentation details in a base template?
I ran into the same issue just today. The only solution I can offer is to manually delete the previous __StandardValues and then rerun the update installation wizard.

Sitecore Rocks : Random Serialization Folders

Due to the limitation of windows file path, Sitecore creates some random directory in the serialization folder for the sitecore content items.
This works well when we revert using the sitecore content editor, but not working while using Sitecore Rocks.
Sitecore rocks installs only the items in the correct path and skips the items in the random folders.
Any thoughts?
First, make sure you are running the latest version. If you are, then create a ticket at http://sitecorerocks.uservoice.com/

Sitecore Web Forms for Marketers Multiple Themes Not Working

I have a bit of a weird bug on a website I'm working on. I have multiple themes configured in the Forms Folders in Web Forms For Marketers. No matter what theme or color I select, all of my forms use the theme and color selected for the Website folder. I tested this with a clean install and it worked fine, this is a bug on my specific website.
Here's what I'm working with:
CMS 6.5.0 rev. 120427
DMS 2.0.1 rev.120427
Web Forms for Marketers-2.3.0 rev. 120216
Any ideas?
This is by design. From Sitecore Support, when I raised the same issue a while back:

Hi Mark,
This is expected behavior. The Theme and Color defined for all forms
for the current site. If you run site (For example Site1) all web
forms will have themes from forms folder that defined in formsRoot
attribute for current site instead of theme from forms folder that
stored this form.
I have registered a wish that we can change this behavior in future.
I can't find the easier way to change this behavior now. I see only
one workaround: Create you custom control which will be insert link to
needed .css on the page. Note: the link to your .css should be defined
below then standard .css.
The Sitecore Support case reference is 336904.
In essence, WFFM assumes themes to be "per site", not multiple themes in the same site.
