A very similar problem here.

I’m manually listing the posts I want on the presentation page and it will only show 10, no matter how many post IDs I copy into the field.

I have “show posts on presentation page” disabled, but I’ve set the number to be displayed to 20 regardless.

Under “presentation page columns” I have “specific posts” selected, and have so far entered 12 codes.

Previously, I had Latest in category selected, and it gave me the option to give a number of posts I wanted. But this option puts the posts in the wrong order. The option where I have to find and enter the individual post ID does not have a box where I can change how many posts I want displayed.

Over the weekend, when I tried several times to download the 1.5.1 zip file it failed on loading in WordPress with the following message:

Unpacking the package…

Installing the plugin…

The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.

Plugin install failed.

Regards,
Mark

I am having the same problem. I just want to show my header on the presentation page and I want to make different headers (the full header and I don’t want the site title showing at all) on the other pages. I am not experienced in CSS and I don’t know where to put the code that ZED listed above. Is there a way or a plugin that i can use to only show the Site Title on the presentation page and can I put what I want on the other header pages. Thank you.

Graphi, you cannot add iframes in the extra text fields since WordPress filters that code out.
You’ll need to use shortcodes (provided by some plugin).

Check https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fseethelightshine.com%2Fnew%2F
See error at #9, that’s the first markup issue which triggers all those following (including your columns issue).

Double check that all open tags get closed and that you are not closing more than you open in your extra text fields.

Start by checking if your Parabola colour fields still have the hash sign (#) in front of the colour codes in the settings.
If they are gone, that’s always caused by a plugin interfering with the settings page. Most such plugins also create two colour selectors (instead of the normal single selector provided by the theme), however this may not always be the case.

You’ll need to cycle through your plugins (by temporarily disabling them) and re-saving the theme settings with at least one colour field with the # restored to see if it sticks. Once you figure out which plugin it is, you can restore the # sign for all colour codes and re-save settings. You then need to either stop using the problematic plugin or never save theme settings when you have the plugin enabled.

If this is not the case (the # sign is still present in the colour fields) let us know so we can look for other causes.

The homepage can be uniquely identified with body.home. As a result, you can append this to any custom styling rule to only make it apply on the homepage:
body.home #my-container { display: none; }

I believe those files are it. Keep in mind all theme files are reset on update so make sure you force disable theme updates if you customize files.

Thx Zed,

in excerpt view on welcome page or cotegory overviews the featured image is shown. No problem!
But if a single post is shown to read more, the image is missing.
You say, the image is just shown in excerpts… Ok, then – in think – this is my answer. Thx!

I’m not a pro to csustomize the theme files 🙁

[Zed]

Add that in the theme’s Custom CSS field or your favourite custom CSS plugin.

I believe we’ve figured this out as being caused by the caching plugin’s CSS minification option.

It appears you have empty paragraphs (newlines) at the start of your posts which turn into spaces in the excerpts.

Try to correct this in the post content (by removing the empty lines at the beginning) – switch editor to Text view mode to see the empty paragraphs.

I dont want to view my featured images as header. But I tested your issue and it worked for me. But only with images bigger or equal than the normal header. So I cant copy your issue :-/

My problem is, that I dont see any featured image at all. The theme dont show me any thumbnail on the post page. As header yes, not inside (or above or whereever) the post content. 🙁

Plugins are both friends and enemies.

I did a bit more checking. I have been testing using a subscriber that I created with no luck. However, I tried it once while signed in as admin and I can see the text under the comment form and it appears to be working only for admin. I reassigned the role for the subscriber to each of the other roles, and it would only work with admin. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Hi Zed,

I was finally able to shut off all the plugins again and perform step #2 which you recommended as part of the jQuery investigation that you would undertake. I must disable all plugins late at night to minimize the inconvenience to my client.

I browsed through the jQuery code on the website’s server while all plugins were disabled.

I was able to determine that all the jQuery files located in the wp-admin/js folder seemed to be WordPress files, from the latest version of WP.

I was unable to determine where all of the jQuery files in wp-includes js folder originated from. I downloaded the Mantra zip file and looked in there, but I didn’t see where those jQuery files for Mantra, are located on the server.

Sorry to be so clueless about jQuery but, I really know next to nothing about it, nor where to check for all the jQuery files.

Can you tell me what steps would be good take next, to determine where the jQuery files on the server originate from, and/or if it’s safe to delete or move them? — Since there was no indication of the origin of the jQuery files on the server, all I could think of to do was download WordPress and Mantra again (which I did), and then compare.

Any thoughts or help would be VERY much appreciated! 🙂

Thanks.

Mary

P.S. I am running the most up-to-date version of WP, and all plugins are updated — I do that anyway as part of my standard maintenance. As usual, this time also, the Mantra Settings page was still frozen.

found some code, tried it out and it worked, thanks to anyone who may have read this. issue resolved.

On the “Social Media Settings” page, I cleared both of the text fields on the ones I didn’t need and “saved changes.” It seems like leaving the default “About me” selected in the dropdown, but clearing out the fields to the right makes it disappear.

The website works well when viewed from a computer. WordPress – Tempura. http://healutah.org
However, when viewed on a mobile device (in a vertical position), the columns do not respond well. The text slims down and is unreadable. However, when the phone is horizontal, the website responds accordingly. I’ve tried individually deactivating plug-ins, and it was not useful. I’ve realized it’s a problem with the columns but cannot figure out how to make the columns respond.

Suggestions?

[Zed]

This should not happen and it definitely does not happen while you’re not changing settings.
The only instance when we’ve encountered lost settings was with:

• oddly configured servers that had issues with special signs inside the text fields (so far we’ve seen issues with the apostrophe ‘ and chevrons < >)
• servers tightly configured, limiting the number of POST/REQUEST variables too low – in this case it’s usually the lower part of the settings fields that are affected (left out)

The theme does provide a settings export feature, so I recommend you use it as often as you change settings (it only takes a moment and you get an export file which you can later import back to restore settings).

The only way to recover things is from backups.

Thank you! That worked great.

Which part in the theme settings deals with the partially transparent black background? If I removed it, it was intentional. I’ve tried to mess with the color settings to get it back, but that doesn’t seem to work.

Thanks!

[Zed]

Whether you use the theme’s blog page template or it’s the default (blog) homepage or you set it as the blog page from Settings > Reading, the blog page will use the general layout as configured in theme settings (under Layout). You can change it, but that option applies on (almost) the entire site, not just the blog page.

Include the character set definition in the font identifier, for example:
Open+Sans&subset=latin,latin-ext
or
Open+Sans:400,300,300italic,600,700&subset=latin,latin-ext
to also include font weights.

You are currently using the logo to display the logo, not the header image.
The center option applies to the header image. To center the logo (or title/description), use
#header-container > div { text-align: center; }

The theme will not display both logo and title at once.

The whole slider is clickable, except for a centra invisible rectangle which holds the title and caption.

The Read More button will relocated beyond the visible viewpoint if your slider text is too long and/or your slider height is too small for the whole caption to fit in.

If the screen you are viewing your site on is wider than 1920px, you will see grey border on the left/right sides.

If that is not the case, are you by chance zoomed out in your Firefox? Press Ctrl + 0 to reset zoom.
