All CSS we usually recommend on the forum is to be placed in the theme’s Custom CSS field (that what it is for).

It works in the style.css as well, but remember all theme files are replaced on update so any changes get lost. If you have a complex child theme, you can use its style.css file.

Unfortunately no. WordPress theme review guidelines explicitly state a theme must display the static page if set.

You’d need to duplicate all the styling applied to #primary / #secondary / .sidey elements to above and below content elements (which I don’t believe exist in the current style).

Actually, just tried it on one of the Tempera sites and am having the same problem. Cannot access Layout Settings. Same Yoast message appears. NOthing behind it.

I tried this in the child css but it didnt seem to work:

.socials {background-color:#870203;}
.socials-hover {background-color:#040f43;}

I imported a color scheme and saw this – but the new scheme changed all the text fonts as well so I imported the original scheme and tried the above.

do I need to put something else somewhere else?
thanks

I tried putting that in using custom CSS and through teh editor but it didn’t seem to work either way.

I’ve decided to use a different one of your themes because I find the dedication settings page much easier to use. I don’t particular like the live customiser wordpress uses.

[Zed]

The header widget size option is kind of inherited from our other themes. I believe it will need some reworking as the header image is now a different layout than on the other themes.

The featured images behaviour is entirely different from that of Mantra (or the other themes).
If your source images are large enough, you can automatically regenerate the thumbnails with a plugin so they fit Fluida, otherwise they will indeed look bad (be zoomed in too much if small).

Which demo?

The theme does not implement special functionality to create galleries. You can create them using WordPress’ functionality, JetPack’s features or a gallery plugin.

Nirvana’s frontend styling is mostly generated on page view based on the theme settings.
WordPress’ TinyMCE editor accepts only CSS files for extra styling, so there is no easy way to add the settings-based generated styling to the editor.

You can change anything related to appearance with custom styling:

body #main {
    background-image: url("http://www.pixeden.com/media/k2/galleries/165/001-subtle-light-pattern-background-texture-vol5.jpg");
    background-repeat: repeat;
}

Nirvana will always display latest X from all posts on the presentation page.

This is a requirement by the theme review guidelines that we have to follow to be accepted in the themes repository.

The CSS field is for styling only, the JS field is for JavaScript.

What kind of code are you trying to include? HTML? PHP?

Yoast’s SEO field for the homepage (this includes the default WordPress homepage that the presentation page replaces) are located separately, in the Homepage section under Titles & Metas.

However I am not sure how this works with multilanguage plugins.

Marjorie, Kathy, did you install the settings plugin?

Ditte, yes – the plugin is designed to work with all Tempera versions and will pick the correct functionality to restore/fix depending on the combination of WordPress/theme versions used.

Your theme is configured to a width of 1980px (which is wider than most monitors out there), so you site will always expand the full width of the screen and never appear center aligned.

Reduce this width to a more decent value (considering the screens you want your site to be best viewed on) and then it should look more like the demo (the default value is 1050px).

Look at the Custom Footer Text field in the theme settings page (under Miscellaneous).

If you’re missing the settings page, read this announcement.

Well, actually I solved it by injecting this javascript in the “CUSTOM JAVASCRIPT” field of the Nirvana Settings:

var _hack_nirvana = document.getElementsByClassName("page_item_has_children");
for (var i in _hack_nirvana) {
   var item = _hack_nirvana[i];
    if (item.firstChild) {
   item.firstChild.removeAttribute("href");
}
}

Hi

We are running several WP-sites with Parabola and experience the same thing with disappeared date/time in the frontend.

If anybody has a hint or advice, it will be greatly appreciated.

Kind regards,
Michael

[Brian Moore]

Very much liked the Parabola template. Made a start but found a problem – see earlier posts. Flagged the problem up on the forum but no response, so decided to sign up for the $25 contribution to get Premium Support. Sent the query to Premium Support who suggested a possible solution which I immediately tried but sadly, it didn’t work, so I replied a few minutes after the initial email from Premium Support explaining it hadn’t resolved things and I attached screen shots showing that I’d carried out the suggestions but to no avail. Since then, a period of over 36 hours, I’ve heard nothing.

In many ways, it is good to discover early that this would be a bad choice for me as a template for my business as I can’t be going days without resolving issues. So, despite how much I liked the template and despite the modest $25 investment, I’ll be using a template from elsewhere. It seems many others are also unable to get a response which is a real shame.

[Brian Moore]

Since no ideas were forthcoming and I wanted to get on, I domated the $25 for customer supports and about 8 hours ago I did receive an email saying: ‘Check that the theme’s presentation page in the theme’s settings (under Presentation Page Settings) is set to ‘Enabled’ and also check that WordPress Settings > Reading options are set to display Latest Posts for the homepage (and not a static page).

Setting a static page there has priority over the theme’s presentation page and is displayed instead.’

I did have the Presentation Page enabled’ but hadn’t set the WordPress Reading settings to Latest post, rather than Static Page. I altered this and saved changes but sadly, it has made no difference. I did respond to the customer suport to say I’d tried this but it didn’t work and asking if they have any more ideas. I haven’t yet heard back but as it is a .eu site, they were probably getting some much needed sleep.

However, if anyone else has any good ideas, please feel welcome to offer them as I’m stuck at the moment.

My problem now, I got notice in updates that I needed cryout serious theme settings plugin installed since I had tempera i installed and activated. Since then my presentation page sliders are gone. I tried deactivating that plugin but it made no difference. At this point just want my site back the way it was. I am so frustrated with always trying to figure out how to do stuff on this. Can anyone please advise me as to how I can just get back to where my site was before this update?

[Tadh]

Any chance for some help with this? I’ve tried many things but couldn’t get to anything that works 🙁

[Leland]

Oh Hey, almost forgot. I love the ability to control the featured image, but here’s my dilemma…

My Mantra featured images were all 250×250 and placed to the mid-left of the excerpts on my blog post page. The supposedly “responsive” nature of the new featured images on the excerpts mess with all of my graphics and the look is atrocious. Is there anyway we can get the old type incorporated into this theme also?

I like that they can become a featured image to the post, but on the excerpts it seems a little buggie. I don’t want to have to go thru and update images on ALL of my posts to fit the theme if I don’t have to.

Thanks again.

Hello,

I am writing about an issue I am having with the Parabola “Presentation Page” settings on our Web site. The issue we are having is with the column graphics on the “Presentation Page” when the Web site is viewed on a mobile or iPad device when rotated.

The presentation page has several segments that make up the page: Header, footer, slides, and presentation page columns. We currently have the settings set to show one of five different graphics displaying in the center “Slides” graphical element on the presentation/home page of the site. Beneath that main graphic element, there is a section labeled “Presentation Page Columns.” We currently have that option set to show three of the four available graphic items in the presentation page column settings under theme appearance.

So, the issue is when the iPad (or cellphone) is in the portrait display mode. In this mode the Web page Center graphic resizes and displays the images properly; however, the three graphic elements below it do not. They wrap instead of resizing? When the iPad or phone is rotated back to landscape mode everything displays again as expected.

It seems that the “Slides” section of the presentation/home page has an attribute applied to it that causes the “Slides” element to resize the displayed content based on the orientation/page size of a device. But, the “Presentation Page Columns” placeholder section does not seem to have this same/similar attribute and wraps the the graphics instead of resizing them.

Is this a bug or feature? Please advise.

Thank you!

[Sanda]

Zed, Brad is right, your fix for this problem is NOT working for most of us. I tried it and yes, it restored the presentation page and slider as it was, but it make disappear the blog page instead. The problem started only when I installed Cryout plugin, so please, could you try and see what is happening? My website is my business and my job, so I’m really anxious to have running again.
Thanks for your help,
Sanda Reynolds
