First thing to check when experienced layout/styling issues is to disable any CSS minification/compression plugins (or such functionality from caching plugins).

Tempera is not compatible with such compression as it needs its styles to be loaded in a certain order.

Try making your CSS more specific by adding body in the front of the identifier(s), like:
body h2.entry-title { ... }

I’m a big fan of Cryout creations themes and the flexibility in layout they offer. The one minor nuisance for me is that I’m used to themes that display the featured image inside the post or page. The right way to use theme themes from the start is to simply put the desired image in the post and then set the theme to auto select the featured image from the post. But what if you didn’t build the site that way from the start?

I just switched a site with a lot of content that relies on featured images in posts to Parabola, and I thought I’d have to make a child theme to show the featured images, but decided to look for a plugin first. Voila! This plugin works great: Featured Image in Content. Hope others find it useful.

I reinstalled wordpress in another subdirectory, installed my plugins and imported all of my content from my original website into the new installation…and Tempera seems to be working fine!

So it seems that in my case it was something related to do with the wordpress installation, though no idea what that is. Strange though, because I’ve tried looking at quite a few other themes and they seemed to be running fine; perhaps Tempera is just a bit more ‘sensitive’ to these kinds of things.

Nicola – I tried looking at your sites but got a “Error establishing a database connection” message on your photogenico site…might looking at?

Ads are usually HTML/JS code. That doesn’t belong in the CSS field or files.

To include content in your sidebar, use the Text widget (it also supports HTML/JS).

That behaviour is usually an indication that your WordPress is running on a weirdly configured hosting server (POST variable limits too low, issues with some characters like apostrophes, quotation marks in input fields).

Hi, I’d also like to request a few social media icons, specifically for online code repositories like GitHub and BitBucket. Could these be added as well?

Love the theme, keep up the good work!

[Celia]

Regarding “…change the color of the titles of the blog entries on the blog page…”, in the Mantra Settings, Color Settings, doesn’t Post Title Color make the color change you want?

[Paul Wandason]

Just noticed that even though the Jetpack module for the mobile theme is activated, it’s not working – it’s getting over ridden by the responsive tempera theme (which isn’t working…)

So viewing the site on the mobile phone actually does show the error. Really frustrating 🙁

I’m running into the same issue and am not replying with a fix, but in hopes of being notified too if a response is posted. I just installed the plugin that gave me my theme settings back (yay!!) and was able to fix my page tab/menu button color back to the pink I wanted but the font on it is gray and hard to read. I really would love to be able to control the color to make it white or black – something more readable than grey.
Thanks!!

(sorry if this double posts – first update didn’t seem to post)

I am adding additional info hoping to clarify my issue and get a reply so I can update the client.

before updating WordPress to version 4.2.2 and the template to version 1.4.0.1, YouTube videos displayed on the Presentation page via an entry on the extra text section using this code`[video src="https://youtu.be/Z9ae-tmuQa0"]

After updating (Feb 24) both WordPress and the Tempura template, the video will not display in Firefox.

I appreciate the complexity of the presentation page ‘offers’ more opportunity to have things display differently on different browsers. For example, in Windows, you can use relative links for the sliders on the presentation page; but, they don’t render properly in Safari and require an absolute link to display. I am curious if there is something malformed in the code referenced above that now makes it not work for Firefox?

Thank you in advance, -Rick

[Rick Richbourg]

The client is starting to inquire more forcefully about why the video is not working on the presentation page in Firefox. Let me try and clarify.

Let me state that until the site was update to the current version of WordPress (4.4.2) and updated the theme to version 1.4.0.1, YouTube videos played on the presentation page of theme just fine (using the code in referenced in the post above). After the updates, youtube videos no longer play on the presentation page in Firefox!

I appreciate that the complexity in the presentation page multiplies the chances for things to display differently on each browser. I also understand that it interacts with different browsers in different ways. For example, I have discovered that on windows the sliders can be called via a relative link; but, in Safari, they must be explicitly called. Obviously, to correct that issue I just use explicit links and every thing works as expected. I am looking for some sort of work around to allow the YouTube video’s to be displayed on the presentation page. If there is something malformed about the code below, please let me know 😉

Hey friends,

Cryout Serious Theme Settings works fine to restore the setting page in single page sites. Thank you for that.

But I noticed it won’t fix the problem on multi-page installations… I have a sitewith one theme in german and one in turkish, I updated wordpress and the themes and I installed the plugin (on the network dashboard of course), updated databases – but still have no access to the settings.
Do you know what to do in this case?
Thank you in advance
Jens

[paula]

I have my theme, wordpress and plugins all up to date
Wordpress 4.4.2
Nirvana 1.2.3
and cryout theme settings 0.5.5

I’ve tried different browsers on different computers.. safari, chrome and firefox.

I keep trying to deactivate/activate plugins but nothing. It worked a few times when this problem first started but now nothing changes when all the plugins (except the cryout theme settings) are deactivated.

[Zed]

Javascript (and complex HTML code like, for example, frames) cannot be placed in any of the theme’s input/textarea fields as it will be filtered out by WordPress’ content sanitization filters.

As such, that code cannot be placed in the slider without editing theme files.

Setting the Page/Category Titles option to Hidden on Categories yields the same result.

Paulette, I see you’ve got the presentation page back.

Marilynn, there is no error in the theme. There problem comes from one of your widgets’ content:
<iframe src="https://www.fiverr.com/anywhere/anywhere_widget/56988c626175783ba5814f00" width="190" height="75" frameBorder="0" scrolling="no">
This iframe is never closed, making the browser believe the entire right sidebar is part of the iframe and gets it displayed on the left sidebar. Correct your widget code.

The homepage title is defined in WordPress’ general options and multi-language plugins should handle that.
A meta description field does not exist in WordPress by default so the plugin adding it should also provide support for multi-language plugins as well.

We have no way of controlling these at theme level without interfering with WordPress functionality.

But from what I see your site title is already localized based on language. What Google grabs from you, though, is a matter of which is the default language or which IP / browser agent info they crawl with (if you use some more advanced language guessing rules).

The error is now in
wp-content/cache/minify/000000/M9TPzCsuSUwvSszVTUtNTdHPKtYvTtKFC-qY6Cfn5-am5pXoFqUW5FTq5Wbm6Rjqp-UkFqWC1IIZeimpZQA.js
which indicates yet another caching plugin (I believe this is W3 Total Cache).

Using multiple caching plugins at once? That’s not a good idea…

Hi! I have the same problem. I have no plugin activated. It’s very important for me this function works cause the layout of the blog. I tried with Nirvana and Parabola and have the same problem.
Can you fix it, please?

Thank you!

[Lanie]

Updating this because I think there’s something wrong with the template itself. When the blog page loads, the last bit of code I see in the source is: <div id=”content” role=”main”>. For some reason, it’s not recognizing anything below that. And in case I inadvertently changed something, I tried re-uploading it, but I’m having the same issue.

Also, I think this should have been posted in Bugs now instead. I thought maybe there was something I was forgetting how to do, but now it seems to be a bug. Sorry about that.

[Anish]

The issue was rectified when I deactivated the W3 Total Cache Plugin.

[Anish]

I am suffering from the same problem for a few days now. There is no problem when in desktop. Even if I remove all the widgets in right sidebar, the problem remains. Only if I disable the right sidebar, I am able to view the contents in mobile. The empty space with invisible content squeezes the main content almost to once alphabet width.

[Dave]

I have installed the Cryout Serious Theme Settings plugin, activated it, and I still have that blank settings page. I have updated to the latest parabola (1.6) verified no updates available via Dashboard-> Updates. No plugin updates available either.

I’m stuck unable to edit the site.

[David B]

Hi Zed
It’s saved to display in the Footer and not the header.
It doesn’t show in the Footer on the front end.

Social Media icons are set to display in the footer also, if that makes any difference.
The site:

[David B]

Over in Bugs, Lars posted a solution to Centering the blog:

I copied this text into ‘custom theme css’ under ‘Miscellaneous’:

body {
margin: auto;
}

[David B]

Thanks, Zed.
Categories displays the large block above the Content block so it’s not clear to me how any Structure settings change that.

Titles seems to be the relevant one but that changes content Titles which I want.

But as mentioned, the above worked. I tested it on Archives and it works there too.
