Nirvana is not designed to actually be used for a single-page site. You can try placing forms in one of the theme’s presentation page extra text areas (by placing the shortcode in the text field).

Hi Zed

Yes I did, I found it easier to customise and get the look I wanted. However, your answer has solved the problem – I didn’t realise that my posts were automatically recategorised as ‘gallery’ posts, which I assume means as non-standard posts they were displayed in full. If I was to change them to standard posts in Anima (because I could switch theme again), would I be able to display the excerpt?

Thanks

@nazpaan, did you switch to Nirvana?

If you’ve tried the same content with Anima, almost all of your posts are image posts. As the hint you’ve already found says: ‘post formats always display full posts’ – this includes ‘image’ posts.

Check under the Screen Options panel on the menu administration page and enable the necessary hidden fields.

Hi Premmarga,

Thank you very much for you kind help! It’s very appreciated. I tried your CSS suggestion, but it seems to have no effect on the meta information as it appears in the headers of the individual post pages. Only the text on the front page in the overlays of the item-blocks increases in size.
I know a very little bit about css, but while trying to understand the code you gave, I realize this is way out of my league 😉
Further suggestions are always welcome, of course. 😉
But given the fact that the Anime theme is customisable on so many details, I think the developers simply forgot the style of the meta information.
PS: I removed your css code again, so there is nothing visible anymore on the site.

For the featured image to appear above a post, it needs to be 1920×420 pixels. You can crop pictures in that format, but most of the time you end up with just a very small portion of the photo. Not very suitable. So I made an empty picture of 1920×420 that I use as a template (did that in Photoshop Elements). Then I take the image I actually want to use, scale it down to 420 pixels height (the height of the header) and copy and paste it in the template picture. Save the template picture under another name (then you can use the template again later).
Make the new picture the Featured image of your post and it will appear above it. It’s not a ‘full width’ illustration, but at least you have the featured image above your article.
Don’t forget to save the jpg image in a lower quality resolution, otherwise you end up with pictures that are to heavy for a website.

I put it in the Additional CSS field–that was the first thing I tried–but it makes the logo/title disappear on every page, not just the homepage. Do I need something in the CSS to specify just the homepage?

[mmmisiek]

I don’t use plugins – only PoEdit.

OK – it looks we have three possibilities.

1. /wp-content/languages/themes/fluida-xx_XX.mo – everything works fine
2. /wp-content/themes/fluida/languages/fluida-xx_XX.mo – no one string displays in my language
3. /wp-content/themes/fluida/languages/xx_XX.mo – everything works except Customizer

Regards
Michał

@cordischi, we’ve identified an issue that caused the plugins’ compatibility mode (restoring the settings page for older theme versions with newer WordPress releases combination) to fail and we’ve released update 0.5.8.1 today to correct that.

Please tell us if this solves your problem.

@Sushi_Overdose, are you also running an old theme version with new WordPress mix?

@zed – My apologies for using the wrong question – it seemed similar and I could not see another thread.

I am not sure how to “enable the Featured images in the header option” – i have looked through the customize menu. Can please direct me to where I do this. TYou

[Zed]

Simple CSS customizations should go in the Additional CSS field in the customizer interface (or you can use a custom CSS plugin to apply extra CSS to your site).

Complex customizations should be performed through child themes.

Maybe this plugin does the job:

Schön!

@Michou, have you already tried the newly introduced widget area’s?

Sidebar – After menu #1, visible on all devices

Sidebar – After menu #2, hidden on smaller mobile devices

This maybe helps you out a little bit.

[cgs18]

Ok, so I’m just learning CSS and I’m not sure where to put the code you gave me. I tried in “additional CSS”, but that didn’t work, so I tried in various places–in style.css it took it hid it on all the pages.

I was trying to put it in the landing-page.php file and when that didn’t work I deleted the code, but apparently I have a stray bracket or something and now I can’t get into any file at all to try to find my error. I get a “parse error” message. I can’t even logout. I’m stuck. This is not a live website, so not tragic or urgent (but it feels kind of urgent), but is there a way out of this? I tried just closing the browser and now I can’t get back in at all. Is there a way to recover? And if not, how do I just start over?

[Guillermolo]

Thanks for your reply, Zed.

I’ve followed your advice and added the following lines telling the CSS to hide the first article of the #content-masonry ID:

#content-masonry article:first-of-type {
display:none;}

Thing is, with this the second post takes the place of the “hidden” one, but the third one doesn’t take the place of the second one and remains in the second row in the desktop view.

I think a more correct way to do it would be modifying the posts query, but your template uses a query I don’t understand enough to modify it.

Any idea?

Plugins which choose to render custom post types themselves will always have layout issues with our themes due to differences in the layout elements plugins expect or integrate and the ones our themes use (due to their customizable nature).

To make the plugin work you’ll need to create a merge of the plugin’s themes/portfolio_details.php file (handling single items view) and our theme’s single.php and then write the code to replace the plugin’s usage of that file with the customized one.

You could of course simply edit that file but you’d have trouble the next time the plugin receives an update.

That text is placed in one of the theme’s presentation page feature extra text fields. You’ll find its control under Appearance > Parabola Settings > Presentation Page > Extra

Parabola displays featured images in posts lists, not on single post/page views.

Following up here. I was able to get to achieve a stock feel newsletter subscription box using my child theme with a bit of copypasta from a few different files in Septera. Here’re the results shown for the sidebar and footer widget:

My implementation could be further improved by making some of the theme-controlled hardcoded styles dynamic and including an icon-envelope font icon (not currently available in the theme).

I’ve just gone back to an old post and set the featured image and it’s now displaying in the home page previews. I never used this before because I found that earlier posts with images in text were being displayed automatically…

I’ll now use the featured image setting for all posts 🙂

Thanks

[francis]

No, none of the other posts showing images have featured images set.

I noticed early on when I created a post and placed an image in the text it usually appeared in the previews images on the home page. This doesn’t seem to be working anymore. But for some strange reason, when an another admin user creates posts with images they do diplay in the home page previews.
I’ve checked the other person’s posts and they’re not using the feature image setting.

Weird!

[Zed]

The list is available in the featured blocks configuration (through the icon option fields).

As you can also see on the theme demo page, the featured images have a hover effect which applies a semi-transparent overlay in the theme’s accent color.

The opacity of the overlay is not directly configurable, but can be adjusted with CSS:
body #container article.hentry .post-thumbnail-container:hover a::after { opacity: 0.5; }

Your copy of Septera appears to have modified styling in its main styling file:

.lp-block {
	position: relative;
	display: block;
	float: middle;    <--
	overflow: hidden;
	background: transparent;
	margin-right: 4%;
}

However there’s no middle/center float value in CSS.

I recommend keeping the theme files unmodified and performing all customizations through the child theme.

Here is an exmaple page:

The title is sucesfully hidden on Firefox (Desktop), Chrome (Desktop), Edge (Dekstop) and Chrome (Android).
I can see the titel on Firefox (Android) though.

Was this site previously running as non-SSL or is it a new site, set-up from start to run on HTTPS?

If it’s a migrated site, you’ll need to make sure that any URLs that refer to the site domain and are stored in the database (either part of content – posts, pages, widgets – or plugin settings) have been updated to use the new secure URL. You can also use the browser to investigate which media resources are still loaded via plain http.

If it’s a new site, you may have a bit of content somewhere (actual post/content text, widget, plugin resources, so on) that tries to load its resources without ssl, resulting in the aforementioned warning.

Have you tried setting Customize->Settings->Landing Page->Featured Content to DISABLED? That’s what makes it show or not show on mine.

[lynnvr]

Same problem here.

I wanted the possibility to link first to pages (as is possible in Nirvana and Parabola btw) and then from those pages, go over to categories. The only other way I could think to solve this would be if the link to the “post” could be changed to link to a page instead (as far as I can see, not possible) -or- if the icon boxes could have images instead of icons (also not possible as far as I can see, at least without being a developer, which I am not).

Sad because I really like this one. Any other ideas?

Hi!

We tried setting up the anchors with the custom links feature for the top menu, but we have the problem that all the links that anchor to a place in the same page get the class “current-menu-item” and “current_page_item”, so we happen to have two active (and thus highligthed) links on the menu at the same time (“INICIO” and “PORFOLIO”). Is there anywhere or a way in the code we can handle the state of the links so we can force only one active item at once?

Thank you!
