To have dropdown items in your menu, create a hierarchical structure on your pages or use a custom menu.

I believe we’ve resolved this through the support tickets and was caused by a Hide Page Titles plugins adding the extra span markup.

I’m sorry about the very late reply, we’ve been busier with some personal events recently.

The doubling of the borders on the menu items is due to the addition of an extra span by the plugin that’s providing the menu icons/images functionality. You can disable the extra border with some CSS:

#access .sub-menu li:not(:last-child) span > span, 
#access .children li:not(:last-child) span > span {
    border: none;
}

The difference in title placement between the homepage and the rest of the site is due to additional (unused) markup being present on the homepage. Apply the following CSS to correct that:

.home #header-page-title .aftertitle-meta,
.home #header-page-title .aftertitle-meta + .byline {
    display: none;
}

Fluida’s styling is already responsive, you don’t have to do anything to activate this.

Are you having any issues viewing your site on mobile devices?

To have a drop-down menu you need to either create a hierarchical structure between your pages (which will be used in WordPress’ automatically generated pages menu), or use a custom menu (which gives you full control over the menu’s content and structure).

Are you having the same trouble (inability to view/use the theme’s settings page)?

What theme version do you have installed on the site? Is the companion settings plugin also installed and activated?

CAN YOU GIVE ME A CODE THAT APPLIES THAT TO EVERY PAGE AND POST?

I have tried it but it is not working. You claim it changes at 800px but I have an LCD which has 1050px and when I resize the windows the menu changes to the mobile menu at around less than a half of my screen ( less than 575px). This indicates 800px is not true. Check it again please.

[aristosv]

thank you, that worked.

For some reason though it only works if I put it in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS.

It doesn’t work when I put it in the style.css of the child theme.

This is my child theme style.css

https://paste.ofcode.org/54qW4v3yBH2w4FHTXKm3YF

I tried this code at the bottom but it didn’t work.

Hi Zed!

You say that the order of the presentation page sections is not configurable.

But then you say that mantra_frontpage_generator is pluggable, and can be customized in a child theme.

I’m afraid you lost me there.

I’m already using a working child theme from before.

Now I’ve tried the following:

Copy: themes/mantra/includes/theme-frontpage.php
To: themes/mantra-child/includes/theme-frontpage.php

Then cut line 170, and pasted it to line 143.

I might be wrong, but I thought this would achieve my goal.

Could you please guide me in some more detail?

[Zed]

I would need to browse the site to figure out what applies that styling and/or what generates the additional markup. I cannot guess that from the images alone.

The order of the presentation page sections is not configurable. The task can be achieved only by modifying theme code (look for mantra_frontpage_generator() in includes/theme-frontpage.php; this function is pluggable and can be customized in a child theme).

Selecting a page template does not add content to that page – it simply activates specific theme behaviour to display the (future) content in a certain way and enabled some additional configuration fields.

Please see the documentation to see which page templates actually have specific layouts and configuration fields: https://www.cryoutcreations.eu/docs/themes/plus/templates/

PS: Page templates are only included in the Plus edition. If you have selectable page templates with the free edition of Fluida those are not provided by the theme (plugins may also force-add page templates).

Customizing the theme’s functionality can be done in multiple ways, depending on what bit of code you’re actually looking to extend/replace.

WordPress has a long list of files that are automatically recognized and get used with priority if they are present in the child theme’s folder. Beside the templates listed there, it will automatically used any files preset in the content/ subfolder if they have the same name as those also found in the parent theme.

Beyond these, you wouldn’t be able to replace other theme files (especially php) by simply duplicating them in the child theme. For the functionality found in the rest of the code you’ll need to apply different approaches, depending on the code in question:
– pluggable functions (those wrapped in if (function_exists('function_name')) calls) can be copied over to the child theme (in the functions.php file or any other file that’s included/loaded by it) and customized there.
– the rest of the function calls are usually hooked in place (using either filters or actions); to customize those functions’ code you’ll have to unhook the original calls, copy and rename the functions to the child theme and hook back the replacement.

Styles and scripts are also enqueued using WordPress’ core calls, so replacing theme would be done de-enqueuing the original and enqueueing the replacement in place.

The screen width-dependent styling is defined in the theme’s styling.
Search for the media queries applied at 800px to the #nav-toggle and #access display rules.

@Kasia, to disable the buttons simply leave their label and link fields empty. Use the same workaround I mentioned in my previous answer to access their configuration options.

You can use simple markup in the option fields, for example:
We are <b>Forester Haynie</b>

Please temporarily disable all active plugins to rule out interference with WordPress’ options (the stuck “Updating…” message).

The static page you were previously using as a homepage may have vanished at an earlier point time (was unpublished or marked as hidden). Its selection remained valid and had effect in WordPress because WordPress saved its ID until you selected a different page from the list (at that point the invalid/empty option is no longer available to return to).

All inner content is limited to the theme’s configured site width. If you need to have content span beyond this limit you will need to create a custom page template (or post template if you need it for posts as well). The Plus edition already includes a page template with this functionality.

Applying this behaviour for other sections beyond individual posts and pages is not easy to achieve.

.sidey .widget-title { text-align: center; } would be more appropriate as it only applies to sidebar widgets.

What do you want to add the background image to? Individual widgets or the entire sidebar?

Bonjour,

J’ ai activé correctement l’ image à la une dans le thème Mantra, j’ ai récupéré une image dans le Media pour la mettre en “image à la une” de mon article, et cela ne fonctionne pas, rien n’apparait. Je suis sous WordPress 4.7.2
Quelqu’un peut il me dire pourquoi ?
Merci

[simpleman]

Greetings, Mr. Zed.

Thank you for taking the time to reply!

I searched the files for strings that contained Search results for, without any extra inputs or special symbols. And I indeed found two very similar strings with these phrases.

The first string (the one with the %s placeholder) I managed to replace the text within my child theme successfully. This was situated within /search.php .

The second string (located within the breadcrumb) is the string that I am trying to change, but I am unable to alter via my child theme, however. This one is situated within /includes/theme-functions.php .

Originally I tried to change it by replicating the filepath within the child-theme, and then trying the change the string that way. This however didn’t work. I can edit the string within the original theme’s files, but I would prefer not to tamper with the original theme.

It is likely that I am missing something, but I am unsure what the best approach is within a child theme. If there is a better way, I’d love to know it 😀

Hi, Zed!

Kudos for Mr. Kay, then, too! I do appreciate your work, guys.

And thanks for the CSS. It worked like a charm! The owner of the site may prefer to keep the border, though, so if you check the site and it’s still there, it’s not because the CSS didn’t work, but simply because the client wanted to keep it.

Thanks again for your kind and prompt response!

Cheers,

Rafael

Unfortunately, the new URL does not appear to work at this time so I cannot check it to answer your first two questions.

Concerning categories, that option is not currently working correctly but is fixed for the next theme update.

Thanks for looking Zed. Apologies for the link – corrected below.
I changed my homepage to the static version and as you say, the borders are gone. But they are still there on the other pages and I would still like to get rid of them.
Also, why are the posts appearing in one half-width column (laptop view) when I have ticked the 2-column structure under the appearances tab?
If I can ask a third thing – is there a way of removing the white box that says ‘categories’ on category pages? I’ve ticked ‘hide category titles’ but that doesn’t do it.

If you’re getting different content in the preview than on the actual frontpage of the site, then my first guess would be something caching related.
You may have cleared one cache, but your site may be behind multiple levels of caching (one from a WordPress plugin, one at server level, depending on hosting, and even the browser is capable of caching).

Before it loads fully it shows like that every time, then 98% of the time the css loads and it’s good, the other 2% of the time the css just never loads n it stays like that, a refresh always fixes it though.
I believe its caused by the settings I have on in autoptimize.
