Lynda, did you make any changes to any of Mantra’s files?

I can see everything on my website on the mobile version except for the pictures.  It seems that after I activated 4 subdomains and installed Mantra in each of those, the mobile feature stopped working.  I also see the “Leave a Reply” section at the bottom of the mobile page, which is not even turned on in Mantra.

I am afraid to export and reinstall because I have 4 links to domains which I am afraid will be erased. What can I do?

Thank you

[Zed]

On a more serious note: to revert any changes made to the files, export Mantra’s settings, uninstall then reinstall the theme, import Mantra’s settings and you should be fine.

Well, I’ve emailed four or five times now – which is to say completed a support request, and used your contact page – and I’ve had no reply, having paid $25 and waited, and waited, and waited.

My first issue, I resolved myself in the end – by growing many grey hairs through age (that was the waiting for the response that never came) and in the end rolling up my short sleeves, and hacking the hell out of the site until I found what I needed to change, using no doubt very clunky code – the best I can do as an electrician. That was placing a video presenter on the front page in place of a fourth column.

The second issue was altering the footer text – where it says “Mantra – powered by WordPress” etc – frankly, I don’t want to make it easy on hackers knowing the site is built on WP.  I have no issue crediting Cryout at all – and I take the view that although you offer the removal for the $25, it’s still you guys that put all the hours and almost as much coffee as I drink into building it.  Fair’s fair. I do want to EDIT it though.  Not yet solved.

My third issue, I discover, is that I am making heavy use of the presentation page – it suits what I am doing with my site, essential, in fact.  On this point, Mantra beats the very much paid for theme we’ve been using the last two years.  However, I also have a blog/News section.  I cannot find a way to enable both the presentation page and have my blog posts show up on my “news” page.  This is also critical as it’s driving my SEO and backlinking.  Not Yet Solved.

I feel both of these are reasonable questions for $25 — paid for, as I say, around two weeks ago – and yet no response at all from anyone at Cryout.  Very sure I cannot be the only one who would want both the presentation page, and a news page with my posts on it…..

Since I cannot seem to elicit a response from you guys at Cryout, perhaps you can email me – you can see my email adress in the log, I believe.  Thank you.

Not looking good here I can’t even post a question that shows my own code, the bit that says lotus foot is where my img tag appears with the src, alt, width, height and class attributes specified. The class aligns it right and then my text just flows around it. I have not put either the image or text into any additional div tags.

[gillian]

Just noticed that my code didn’t get into the post – no wonder no replies – but I have solved this.

[Corine]

Sorry, you also asked for an example so here it is: http://www.afslankuniversiteit.nl/dieettrends/crash-dieet-zoooo-2012/

The bold headings are h2 the bigger one on top is h1.

[Zed]

Go to Appearance > Mantra Settings and you’ll see a Custom CSS field under Miscellaneous. Paste it there.

I am at 2.0.2 with no update notices so I am not sure whats up. I have tried it on several different browsers.

[Mike]

First, I must say I love this theme! My latest site is the first using the Mantra theme and it is quite impressive. The only problem I have had is a similar logo issue. The header logo displays perfectly on any laptop/desktop, even when the browser window is re-sized to that of a smart phone. It also works perfectly to re-size the logo on an old droid phone and a Samsung tablet. However, on an iPhone or iPod, it displays a tiny distorted piece of the logo. On an iPad, it is fine in landscape, but the same distorted image in portrait. It would be nice to figure out this issue. Thanks for the wonderful theme!

[Zed]

Any changes made directly to the theme’s files are lost on update. You should only do this via child themes…

Version 2.0.2 adds shortcode support for columns texts and the two fields below the columns, so if that’s where you were trying to add content, you should be able to do it via a widgets-as-shortcodes plugin plus Custom Text widget combination now.

but it also switched tags, and it is a mistake because I did not want to gray and his field and he wants to know tags

[Zed]

I think you are following WordPress.com hosted blogs instructions on a self-hosted WordPress blog. These rarely work as WordPress.com blogs include a lot more extensions that are not installed by default in self-hosted WordPress.

There is no “Pinterest Site Verification” field in WordPress. And Mantra has nothing to do with this.

Perhaps this will help.

You need to use categories instead of pages – http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/categories/

1. Check in the “Discussion” settings under the “Settings” sidebar tab and make sure that the “Allow people to post comments on new articles” box is checked.  – YES, IT IS CHECKED.
2. What is your website? http://www.travellittleknownplaces.com
3. Under the “Text Settings” in the “Mantra Settings” are the sidebar font settings. YES, BUT THERE IS ONLY ONE SETTING FOR BOTH SIDEBAR HEADINGS AND SUBHEADINGS.
4. Any registered user will see the toolbar.  Non-registered views will not see it.  But in each user’s profile you can turn the toolbar off.  As how to remove or change the “Howdy, username“, I do not know.  That is WordPress itself, not Mantra. OK, I WILL TALK TO WORDPRESS.

Because the setup is different for Worpress 3.5 “Add Media” button, I did not see the “align” drop-down option.

That seems to have fixed it.

Thank you for your help. I would not have bothered you with this, but the tech support people at Bluehost (our hosting service) believed it was theme related and not due to WordPress.

Thanks agan,

Mary

Hi Shirley,

1. When you are adding or editing a post, look at the top right of screen.  You will notice a gray tab that says “Screen Options”.  Click on it to display a drop down menu.  There you can select the check box to display the comment section.  Once checked, scroll down while you are in the add/edit post to select comments.
2. You can change the font size of the header and description text in the Mantra settings page under the Appearance sidebar tab.  From the Mantra settings page, select “Text Settings” to modify the font and size and “Color Settings” to modify the color.
3. Are you wanting to move the Description text below the page title text?  If so, remove the description text from the settings “General Settings” tagline and add the text to the page.
4. Change the text size in the Mantra settings page “Text Settings”.
5. You will only see that when you are logged in as a registered user to the site.  Normal viewing will not see it.  If you do not want to see the toolbar when viewing the site, edit your user profile and uncheck the box for “Show toolbar when viewing site”.

I hope that helps.

Hi

I’m using your module and is working very well except with the code

<?php

$number=”3″;

include(“/domains/aranzmaji.si/public_html/news/show_news.php”);

?>

when i reopen module, because news are not shown, i see the code

<!–?php

$number=”3″;

include(“/domains/aranzmaji.si/public_html/news/show_news.php”);

?–>

.. see the commented code? I tried the code on normal blank php page and it works well

 

Any idea?

Thank you very much

[TANomix]

a lot of people that is looking for what you see on helping WP

 

This code in this topic as only parts solves the problem – because it does not change the size of your images

http://pl.forums.wordpress.org/topic/grafiki-w-poscie-wyswietlane-w-kategori?replies=1#post-28520

It may be useful to improve the template mantra

[Zed]

Well… that’s up to WordPress’ theme review team.

Oops, almost forgot. About that favicon.

I tried uploading an image from my computer that’s now also in the media library and it shows up where I’m doing that favicon insertion change from but then it doesn’t show after hitting ‘save changes’ etc.

I’ll keep looking around.

Thanks again!

Support for Google fonts was added in version 1.9. Are you using an even older version?

Right under the selector for the predefined fonts there’s the input field for the Google font names.

EDIT: I see you’re using 1.8.6. You’ll most likely need to use a plugin to apply Google fonts.

I should let you know that the proper way to do this is via a child theme.

Your child theme will need 3 files:

• style.css (with the content documented in the WordPress tutorial)
• functions.php with the content below:

`<?php
require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . “/theme-frontpage.php”);
?>`

• and the modified theme-frontpage.php file copied over from mantra/includes/ to the root of  your child theme’s folder.

This will make sure you will not lose your change at the next update.

Yes, there is a more update-friendly way, but modifying our copyright link is discussed in questions A3 and A4 in the FAQs.

Hugo, we still don’t know what’s causing your issue (we believe it to be browser related, but we could never reproduce it on our computers), but it should be fixed (or at least prevented from breaking Mantra completely)  in v2.0.2.

Mantra (and themes in general) doesn’t mess around with anything database related.

We have been using Mantra and WordPress on this website (and on the previous domain) since Mantra was created… and that was 2 years ago. Old comments are still readable and nothing changed.

Perhaps you had some comments related plugin that messed with those fields which you uninstalled/disabled in the meantime.

That is the original WP post and page after you install WP for the first time.  Check your Reading Settings to see what your front page is set to.  Look for those in posts and pages.  Delete them if needed.

To verify what Facebook will thumbnail when you type in your web address in a post on fb, use this tool.

This is my Users Group website that is having the issue, http://www.tbvug.com.  I’m at a lose why the slider is not working.  It is currently set to custom slides.  Slide 1 is defined and the links to image are verified, Slide 2 is original theme settings, the rest of the slides are blank.  I’ve tried post, categories, still the slider just sits there with the loading circle.
