Thanks. I believe that the CSS added to the customiser is not applied to the backend, but only to the frontend.

Either way, I’ve resolved this by creating a plugin, and adding the CSS to the backend via the plugin.

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the message. Lack of support has been a huge concern for me in 2023 as I’ve really grown to love Fluida Plus over the years and I would MUCH prefer to not switch away if that’s at all possible. You are right though, Priority Support should be treated as such.

I’ve been trying to give Zed the benefit of the doubt. Historically, Zed has always been fast to reply and fix bugs. I did get a reply from him maybe one month ago where he addressed being aware of some incompatibilities with the latest WordPress release and he stated he has been working on fixing it. I sent a follow-up email though because I never saw any theme updates and that follow-up email went unanswered.

I have no information beyond that. I’m really hoping the theme was not abandoned because I’ve dedicated years to customizing and building a website off of Zed’s theme templates. I’m just hoping maybe something came up that required his attention and that he will soon return. That’s my hope, anyway.

Hi Rocky,
looks like we are in the same boat, no replies to emails anymore, no replies to posts on the forums.
We pay an annual fee for updates and support, but we are not getting any of this.
Sadly, after many years supporting Zed, it looks like we have to find a new provider for our themes 🙁

[MikeEckman]

Carrie, I found a workaround to make that text go away.

Go into Appearance, Customize, then when in the Customizer, go to Post Information, Meta Information, and uncheck the box for Display Comments.

Disabling that option will make the itemprop=”discussionURL” text go away, but it also takes away the count of how many comments are on each post. If you can live with losing that number, you can get rid of the text that is showing up now.

Hopefully someone fixes this as this is almost certainly only the beginning of more defects that will show up as WordPress is updated, but these themes are not.

[Steve Procter]

The other issue with this theme, is it’s pulling info to the Landing Page from the MACHINES PAGE for example, but for some reason it is making all the text centred, but on the MACHINES PAGE it is justified and looks exactly how we want it to look, can this also be changed?
Thanks

[MikeEckman]

I am experiencing the same problem after going to 6.3. It only shows on my Search Results page. I tried changing from 3×3 to 2×2 and it was still there. I am using Septera Plus. My site is:

Solved!!!
A friend discovered that there is a bug in the theme’s translation files. A value is not accepted (% 1 $ dpx). PHP 7.4 still forgave the error, but 8.1 no longer allowed it in our opinion. He recompiled the .mo and .po files and I overwrote the existing ones.
So the theme really works on PHP 8.1 as well.

[Gyulavitez]

This is line 284:
‘description’ => sprintf(__(‘Only drag [Cryout Column] widgets here. Recommended size for uploaded images: %1$dpx (width) x %2$dpx (height). Go to the Tempera Settings page >> Presentation Page Settings >> Columns to edit sizes and more.’,’tempera’ ), $temperas[‘tempera_colimagewidth’],$temperas[‘tempera_colimageheight’]),

A friend of mine tried Tempera in a test WP server. He cannot activate the theme, same error(PHP 8.1 and apache).
So it is a compatibility issue after all?
Please help, this is a school’s homepage, the will need it in august.
Or is there a way to migrate a newer theme of yours?

[lighty]

@ Zed – Hello
I just re open this old discussion because it’s now time to move to Tempera. I modified the plugin provided to show the featured images just below the title. It works great but, the post information (creator – Date/time) appear below the image, is there a way for this to be just below the title ? I’d like to have The Title – Post Info – Featured image like here -> https://ibb.co/Yh9gtK2
One more point : If you show a Post category list, the featured image appears twice – seems WP core show it, and then your plugin shows it again, any way to fix this ? Exemple here -> https://ibb.co/yytQ74N
And last, does Tempera is ok for php 8.2 and do you know how much time it’ll be maintain ?
Thanks a lot for what you do / explain.
Lighty.

Bonjour, est ce que le problème est réglé parce que L’option des titres de page/catégorie ne fonctionne toujours pas.

[Zed]

Hi,

That functionality is not available in either of the theme’s editions, but should be achievable with CSS.
Can you include a link to your site and the URL for the alternative logo?

Hi,

The theme’s layout is configurable in the settings page. This layout applies throughout the site (except the presentation page feature, when that is used).

Hi,

That effect is usually obtained with JavaScript libraries that have expanded on one another and share similar names: fancybox, lightbox, colorbox. There are multiple WordPress plugins that implement them for WordPress sites.

Animation happen when triggered (on click/hover, other user interaction) so the animations/popup themselves add no extra drag on the performance of the site. However, the scripts/resources needed to add the effects need to be loaded on the site, and depending on the solution chosen they may be lighter or heavier on the site.

@deKay, your issue is different and looks to be caused by the theme failing to retrieve in-content images to use a featured images from your posts.
This happens because the function checking for such images is told by WordPress that the posts have images attached (inserted in) to them when in fact they don’t appear to (maybe they had them in the past?).

We’ll add some extra logic checks in the next update to not trust WordPress’ returned data blindly and to avoid this condition.

Testing out the site with just WordPress and the theme, without any active plugins, with all caching cleared (and browser force refreshed) is the standard course of action after any major change such as updating PHP (or moving the site, or even updating WordPress) if malfunctions occur.

If the bare site doesn’t work, reverting to one of the default Twenty themes would be a good additional step.
If that still fails, next would be digging through the server error logs to identify where the fault lies.

When a functional state is eventually reached, then extra extensions and functionality can be gradually re-enabled until something fails again or everything is restored.

Hi,

In WordPress, the “blog” special section is designed to display latest posts regardless of other attributes (categories, metas, authors). There are no built-in filtering options for this section, but there are plugin that can add such filters.

Concerning journal posts, it depends on how those are created. If those are just regular posts, then simply creating a category page would limit the list to posts belonging to the specific journal category. If those are a separate custom post type, than those would need their separate frontend code (dedicated templates) to handle their display.

Since a number of threads haven’t been responded-to for weeks, I did some digging on my own — this is what I found that might be the solution: Add this to the Custom CSS in the Customizer:

/* Hide element on Desktop */
@media only screen and (min-width: 981px) {
.hamburger {
display: none !important;
}
}

I’m checking with the client to see if their Windows viewers can now see the menu on a single line.

Hello!

The site header is overlapping our menu icon in mobile view. Since the site header is too large and overlaps the icon button clicking the icon area refreshes the home screen instead of expanding the menu.

Does the code need to be adjusted or is there another way to fix?

div.site-header-top > div.site-header-inside > div#branding > a#nav-toggle

Thanks again, @Zed. The fixes you suggest above worked well. Hard to believe it was 1.5 years ago already… 😀

I have another styling question: I cannot find any settings for background (currently transparent) in the Main Menu in the Customizer. And also, the change of font (family and/or color) in that Main Menu via the Customizer is not showing any change when I attempt to bold the font or change fonts altogether. Do you have any input or how-to links to share with me about editing/changing the main menu? Thanks in advance!

I am curious if you found a resolution to this issue, TigerWolf.

My site is running on PHP v7.4. I tried to upgrade the version of PHP to v8.1 as my host requested, but when I do so, the site doesn’t work. Similarly, v.8.0 doesn’t work. My host is no longer supporting outdated PHP versions, so I am concerned. I love my current Nirvana template and would hate to switch.

Any chance this bug is going to be fixed? I can’t really use galleries any more!

[LindaWoods1]

Zed, I am having the same issue of the headings getting cut off in mobile view. My logo also overlaps some of the heading text. I used the custom CSS that you suggested (above) to further shrink the titles but it did not work. I’m using the Mystic theme. Here’s a link to my site: http://www.lindawoods.org

Also, If I purchase the plus version of the theme, will this take care of the problem? And does the 24 hour priority support (in the plus version) mean that you will answer questions within 24 hours? I would be happy to purchase the plus version if that is the case. Thank you!

Me too 🙂

Pagespeed insights is giving me “Buttons do not have an accessible name”

Is there a piece of code I can modify or add to get rid of this error?

I tested further, it seems to be due to Firefox, it works with Chrome…

Hello,

i have the same issue. On two completely different sites, different hosters.
One is has your Mantra-theme, the other has the Roseta theme.

The Gallery block items are rather small, it should be possible to have 4 in a row. In edit-view, its displayed as desired, but in the public frontend, all gallery-images are displayed one below the other.

[Zed]

Hi,

That sounds like the styling is applied incorrectly, which from experience tells me something (namely a plugin) is manipulating the styling or mixing it around.

I you have any caching/minifying/optimizations plugins active on the site, please disable them temporarily and check if the issue still manifests.

Otherwise, broken appearance can also be caused by an issue in the markup itself, like unclosed/unbalanced tags or incorrect tag combinations (causing the browser to try to save face by attempting to guess what starts, goes and ends where).

Without browsing the site in question I wouldn’t be able to provide any more specific insight.

The page/category titles option is indeed not working as expected in the current Bravada release, thank you for pointing this out. We’ll have it sorted out in the next update.

And I can now see what you mean by absolutely massive, but that is so due to locally configured text size settings in the content itself:

So from the theme’s perspective, the content is appearing in the way you set it to appear (as local styling takes precedence over more general styling applied by the theme).

Hi Zed,
Thanks for your answer.
It works fine with the Twenty Twenty One Theme, I forgot to told you that I did tried that.
How can I deactivate all my plugins without injuring my website ?
