@xorpheous, if you referring to single posts using up half of the available content space (leaving empty room for a second column, like here) this is an issue we’re fixing in the upcoming update.

Otherwise, the homepage posts list and other posts lists (categories, archives) always used the same layout simultaneously – either posts in two columns or posts in one column – excluding the sidebar.

@pattyoss, it appears you’ve disabled (or never used) the magazine layout option. You’ll be able to re-enable it after the next update without it breaking the single posts layout anymore.

Thank you Zed. After realizing that it was only the files I already had in the mantra-child directory which needed some editing (eg. category-27.php and style.css), I was somewhat surprised to find that I also needed the “includes” sub-directory (containing theme-frontpage.php) to be under mantra-child as well. (This is just by testing on a test site; I still haven’t updated the live site yet.)
Does that seem to be expected, to you? I don’t appear to need the other sub-directories content, resources or templates, to be under mantra-child; they are OK just in the main mantra folder.

[jgcordes]

Another update. The padding in the menu bar titles is in the main Mantra style. I’ve tried to override that with this entry in my mantra-child/style.css file:

#access a {
padding: 0.5em; 0.5em;
}

but it is not working. (The parent Mantra theme as padding: 0.5em; 1.5em;)

I have also tried including !important but that doesn’t help either. I don’t know if there is a css speficity issue here or if there is something else wrong.

Any ideas, anyone?

John

Partial solution found, thanks to my son. I edited the category-27.php file which is directly under the mantra-child directory (the old location before Mantra 3 came along) to use the “content/content” as indicated above. I believe this is now picking up the posts as desired.

At the moment this leaves the other problem, of modifying the css for the padding in the menu titles — I don’t know what class names are involved, or where that particular css is located.

Thanks,
John

In wp-content/themes/septera/inducles/landing-page.php:
in text area builder edit this:
‘text’ => apply_filters( ‘the_content’, get_post_field( ‘post_content’, $pageid ) ),
to this:
‘text’ => get_post_field( ‘post_content’, $pageid ),
That’s all you need change to sovle this problem 🙂

The static slider functionality is indeed missing responsiveness. We’ll correct this in the next theme update.
On our demo there was some leftover styling being applied which made it behave differently.

The font name you’ve set for the site title is invalid. The font name should be ‘Fjalla One’, not ‘fjalla’.

On the homepage the site title is a heading, inheriting the headings font. On other pages the title is a simple span, so the headings fonts no longer applies.

Tempera does not store your URL paths, WordPress does this (in thedatabase). If you’ve moved your site (WordPress install), make sure to correctly update all URLs stored in the database the reflect the correct new one (including SSL if you’re using it):
https://codex.wordpress.org/Moving_WordPress

Using the correct procedure will update all entries, including those in the theme’s options.

Tempera has backup capability – you’ll find its Export/Import functionality in its settings page, under Appearance > Tempera Settings.

I am unable to use the code you provided to translate the icon blocks. Did something change with the latest update or is this my fault? Maybe you could provide a screenshot of the code area after you’ve copied the code so that I can make sure that I’ve done everything correctly.
Also, are you planning on fixing the problem any time soon or will I have to change themes? I love Fluida so I hope you’ll be able to fix this problem…

Thanks in advance 🙂

[Zed]

@ncesareo, the CSS in my previous answer only applies to the theme’s static slider. Our slider plugin has an option (since the latest update) to control this behaviour.

The spacing between widgets can be adjusted with custom styling:
body .widget-container { margin-bottom: 1em; }

The vertical spacing between articles can also be adjusted with CSS:
body #content-masonry article.hentry { margin-bottom: 2%; }
The horizontal spacing between articles is more difficult to adjust since it is applied by multiple styling rules, some generated based on the theme options.

Mobile Safari has some issues handling the styling applied on the text areas background image (it can’t handle fixed positioning with cover sizing). We’ll correct this in the theme in a future update.

@laiello, sounds like caching was delaying the change to take effect.

Your site has a JavaScript error:
ReferenceError: Cookies is not defined woocommerce.min.js:1:436

Our theme requires JS to be functional for some of its functionality (like the mobile menu).

Thanks for the explanation, but in the colors menu, all the colors are filled with some default value and are not Empty. And I don’t find any color option that specifically says that this color is for Input fields, etc. Can you Help please?

[TBrewer]

I realize now I misunderstood your problem. I was under the impression it was the landing page image that was giving you problems not the header images on the separate pages. Have you tried adjusting the header image behavior? You can toggle between responsive and cropped, you’re likely getting a cropped image now. This shouldn’t cause pixelation, in fact these are the only options in order to prevent that, but the responsive image may give you more information on the true image size after uploading it. Is there any chance it could have been compressed in that process? Have you tried looking at the photos via some other wordpress media type? e.g. a slider, embedding the picture, etc. I haven’t had any issues with compression when uploading but it’s possible. Beyond that you’ll have to wait for Zed to make his rounds.

Hi Tina,

Did you figure out why your featured images are getting blown up in the header? The same thing is happening to me and the pictures look very pixelated. It looks terrible. I have tried to resize my images in so many different ways and it doesn’t make a difference.

-Gabrielle

[Undrwatrgrl]

I have tried setting the width to the exact width of the site (1380) and it did not change a thing. The image is still highly pixelated and looks terrible.

[TBrewer]

What resolution are the pictures? What is the width of your site/slider set at?
The numbers are adjustable so if you want to use some smaller pictures adjust for that. Beyond that as long as you can find the slider ratio and crop your pictures to the same it’s just a matter of using photos that have a high enough resolution to not appear pixelated at that size. I believe the default settings are something like 1380×525.

Images are possibly cached on your laptop, not on your mobile, your image 3 does appear to load.

however the others do not.

This is not the same as we were experiencing, our slider did not display at all.

[Zed]

There is a phone icon available for the icon blocks if you wish to use it, but I believe the social menu functionality is better suited for adding your phone number on the site (beside displaying it in the content/footer/sidebar/header areas as well).

I tried to reply to your email but it was NOREPLY@ I hate them, they are so unprofessional.
See my original request above:

From the theme customiser. Like in my post I stated there is no way to do what I want without resorting to changing php and css.

[Zed]

This is not a theme styling issue. You left necessary color fields in the theme’s options empty, disabling certain styling rules.
Only background color fields can be safely left empty, leaving other colors empty can result in invisible content elements.

Pages can be configured to use a custom sidebar layout. The rest of the site (archives, categories, so on) will use the general layout configured in the theme’s Layout options.

The number of posts displayed on the homepage is not independently configurable from the number of posts displayed on standard post lists (categories, archives, search results) – it is the same set in WordPress’ Reading settings.

Update: Its a CSS issue, when I used custom CSS in the “Customize” for the input fields I was able to make it visible. Kindly fix the issue so that we can use the forms on the theme.

[beth-f]

Well, that worked when I modified the theme file. When I created a child theme and added my modified landing-page.php to it, it is no longer working. For some reason it is not seeing the file in the child theme? I made an includes folder and put it in there. Not sure if I’m missing something. Any help would be appreciated.

[Pitufo]

May be related to bot activities. As I only experience this on the palabola themed sites and only examined code, not tracked logs, I’m unsure about the origin.

Too much thanks!

[Zed]

But does the form submission work with one of the default Twenty themes? (you can temporarily switch to test or even do this through the customizer preview).
