Sorry about this. A broken file (due to an incomplete file transfer) managed to sneak through in the 1.1.3 update archive.
We’ve already released 1.1.4 to correct this. If you haven’t updated or restored an older version to recover the site, you can now update to 1.1.4.

If your site is still malfunctioning due to the 1.1.3 update, unfortunately the fix isn’t too simple: you’ll need to get into WordPress’ folder/file structure (using the hosting account’s file manager or a FTP client), look for the fluida folder in wp-content/themes/ and rename (or delete) it.
This will make WordPress switch to the default theme, restoring the whole site to working order. Now you can reinstall Fluida (the settings are kept).

If you’re comfortable with file management, uploading fluida/admin/main.php from 1.1.4 over the one present in your site will suffice.

PS: I’ve separated this discussion as the original thread is unrelated.

Hello,
same problem for me. I tried to delete it and do it from start again, but still the same bug. For now, I deleted the content (Slider with video in full width).

I totally agree with the new options turned off by default when updating to the latest version otherwise it’s quite confusing and can really messed up the layout.

Any solution for the “content before” bug showing twice ?

Best regards,

Johann

Each menu element has a unique identifier (ID and classname) which makes it possible to write custom styling for each one of them.

That code will not work in the theme’s Custom JS field (at least not in its current form).

As it is meant to display content, you need to place it in a content area – like a Text widget.

Thank you for your answer. I found my solution by putting a background-image on nivo-caption.
Now the problem is that when the screen is too small, the background-image goes under the slide.
As you can see here if you reduce your windows size : click

Do you know a solution ?
Thank you 🙂

For window border detection and automatic submenu placement to avoid offscreen appearance scripting is required.
However, the menu is designed to be as light as possible (in browser resource usage) and as such it has almost no scripting applied to it.

To avoid submenus appearing offscreen I can only suggest to either rearrange your submenus or try to keep the submenu labels length at a minimum.

Hello friends finally, is not a problem of the theme, it is a problem of my computer, thank you very much and sorry for the inconvenience.
A greeting.

[bmuench]

I am also having problems with full posts showing even though I have selected excerpts.

I am also having problems with shortcode being displayed in the post preview on the main page.

I hope there is an answer to this problem soon.

[Shlomi]

Very good.. Thanks,
That did the job

If I’m already here can you tell me how to change the font size for the except (showing on archive & category pages)
I tried looking on the style.css bot I don’t know what to change…

[Zed]

Images don’t normally open on-top in WordPress – you will need to use Lightbox/Fancybox/Colorbox plugin (the names of the JS libraries creating the effect).

Try increasing the max-width to 800px so it applies to larger devices as well.

Hi
Following on from the previous chat, my site is still not displaying posts correctly on the homepage. I’ve made a screen grab but I don’t think I can attach it here.
Basically instead of having all the post lined up in rows of three like this:

X X X
X X X
X X X
X X X

Etc…

I’m getting this… or varieties of this:

X X X
X X X
X
X X X
X
X X X

I don’t understand why there are random gaps, nor how to fix it. It looks weird and wrong. Can you help?

Thanks
Bella

Yes I did a CNTL F5 and it still looks the same on Google Chrome. However it looks fine on Microsoft Edge. Could it be the fact that I’m using Windows 10 on Google Chrome to view it?

@dneale123 You’re not doing the whole child theme thing properly. The child theme’s CSS shouldn’t also contain the parent theme’s old CSS. You are not including Tempera’s styling (which in the last version changed quite a bit, as it always does) and you’re using old Tempera styling (from version 0.9.8?). You need to only leave your Custom CSS in there and include the parent theme’s CSS via @include (which you commented out).

And yes, style-frontpage.css has been moved inside the main style (style.css). If you just want to copy that code into your child theme’s stylesheet (which is something I strongly advise against) you’d have to copy the section in style.css from /* Presentation Page */ up until /* Style HTML5 tags for IE8 and lower */ .

Again, you’re doing things wrong and further updates will probably cause other issues. The reason child themes exist is so that you can update the parent themes without having to worry about code changes. Keeping an old version of the style in your child theme and not using the current theme’s stylesheet is a bad practice and kind of renders null the use of a child theme.

@jistwp Could you show us a link to your site?

I also just updated and have an almost identical issue using the Child Theme:
1. the presentation page Cryout columns align vertically in one column, rather than horizontally in one row.
2. the Top Text and Second Text font sizes appear reduced.

However, if I live preview the site using through the main Tempera theme, the font size seems fine, and the Cryout columns do align horizontally. In the preview, however, it only displays Cryout columns 1, 2, & 4 – Column 3 vanishes altogether.

I also notice a search box in the main navigation bar in both the child and main theme, but cannot see how to disable/otherwise manipulate it.

Workaround to my quest…
Found a good plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/q2w3-fixed-widget/
Its simple to use. After installing it, under Appearance->Widgets, there are check boxes labelled “Fixed Widget” displayed under each widget so that each widget can be ‘fixed’ or floated separately. On our site rtfzine.org I also installed Display Widgets from https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-widgets/ which allows each page to have it’s own selection from your available widgets -or NO widgets at all displayed. This is probably an overkill workaround to our need to have a special piece of floating text appear on only one page. Using Display Widgets I’ve created a widget which is just plain text which will display a message on just one page. I did this because all the other floating element plugin I found required a unique document element ID and I don’t know how to determine Mantra element IDs. There is probably a custom CSS snippet which could be included in the Mantra Options->Miscellaneous Settings section?
If anyone can tell me now to determine the element ID or tags that Mantra’s PHP dynamically generates On-Load I would be very appreciative.
Cheers,
-Mike

Hi,

First of all, thank you for making such a beautiful theme available for free.

I’m having the same trouble where my images are not showing up in the grid view as per demo. I have enabled featured image and it is still not showing up.
Thanks.

Thank you Zed… seems a little complicated alas.

How about putting posts above the cryout columns? is that an easier job?

Thank you.

It works on various Android smartphone in portrait mode only.Turning the device in landscape (2 rows and 2 columns), the images are distorted.

On tablets instead, tried on Ipad Mini 2 with ios 10, in portratit mode (2 rows and 2 columns) the images are deformed (in landscape is displayed desktop version, one line with four columns)

[RHCRAU]

Thank you for your answer Zed.

I found out friday night what was the origin of the problem.

It’s the “WP-Properties” addon that overwrite the css of a part of the frontpage, so it makes disapear this text. I totaly forgot to disable this one when I was trying your troubleshooting guide 😐

As i were away for the weekend, i couldn’t send a message saying that problem is now partially solved (in fact, when i “deactivate” (or more precisely, when i change some stuff on the presentation) the default WP-Properties’ css, there is now another problem, but only in “properties”, so i’m working on it).

[Zed]

The theme uses WordPress sanitization functionality on all input fields (including social URLs) – and as whatsapp:// is not a valid protocol identifier is it most likely filtered out.

The code looks right. How is the new social icon malfunctioning on sub-pages?

The theme’s presentation page Extra Text fields support shortcodes, so you can place that in one of them.

You may need to look for a plugin that lets you pick which categories of posts you can list in a certain place (like in a page).

I got it to work but I needed to add some CSS that wasn’t anywhere in the theme.

.theme-default .nivoSlider a.nivo-imageLink {
	background-color:#fff;
	filter:alpha(opacity=0);
	/other than IE/
	-moz-opacity:0;
	-khtml-opacity: 0;
	opacity: 0;
	z-index: 101;
