Same issue here.. I want to remove the field which contains the title.

Hi Thierry,

Did you update to the latest version of the theme and did you enable the above mentioned “Force Header Responsiveness” option? Also, could you show us a link to your site so we can check it out ourselves?

This is solved by the great and kind Dr. Gabriel Malonzo of New Era University and my Professor Albert Vinluan, we just fixed few things up. Thank You Kay for responding.

I too cannot publish to facebook with this meta property included.

I could just edit the theme, but it’ll come back on the next update.

I have tried adding this line to my child template, but it doesn’t do the trick, no matter what priority I set it to.
remove_action (‘cryout_seo_hook’,’mantra_seo_template’,1);

I don’t mind letting people know I use the Mantra template, in fact I’m proud of it, but Facebook and w3c both throw fits about this property.

Please advise.

[SG]

OK, so I found the solution; you really have to edit it in the backend but not where Andreas thought but under “Beitragszusammenfassungen” (should be something like “Post summaries” in English). It is not included in the .po/.mo language files.

Hi Patrick! I´m having the same problem than yours. I can´t center my menu. I´ve tried with the option Parabola Settings > Graphics Settings > Menu Alignment > Centre, but it doen´t work. I´ve checked your web site and I see the your menu is centered right now. How did you get it?

[Ruskus]

I had the same problem, and I tried out the solution proposed by Randy: I changed the settings in the presentation page to a higher number (to show 6 posts instead of 4). Now the button works fine. Thanks Randy!

[Ian Eric]

In my limited experience, that’s what “responsive” means; the theme adapts to mobile devices by detecting a mobile browser and displaying a mobile-friendly version of the site.

[martin]

That’s perfectly understandable. Apologies.

Thanks for the proper link.

My website is under contruction and host on my NAS so I can’t show you my website for now but even by viewing that won’t give you more informations of what I ant to do. I reduce the size of the slides but now I would like to move the slides to the right so I can put text on the left.
Anyone who had an idea how to do it, that would be awesome help!
Thanks in advance everybody.
Kind regards.

[Kay]

@martin Thanks a lot for the feedback and the help you provide but please don’t share unverified links of theme files.

For other users looking for older theme versions, you can always find them on WordPress.org. All of Parabola’s previous theme updates can be found and downloaded from here https://wordpress.org/themes/tempera/developers/

@ Catalin – I had another site where I had not upgraded. Copied the theme folder from there.

I use no custom CSS.

It would be great to have notification options in the forum!

[Sara]

Hello! I have the same problem.
The server is running on ubuntu 12.04. I use firefox. I use the latest version of WordPress (3.3.1) and Tempera 1.2.2.
I made a fresh install of WordPress and Tempera.
I disabled all plugins, uploaded the theme again, deleted the browser cache but tempera settings menu stayed unclickable.
I tried also to use older versions of Tempera (1.0.0 and 1.2.1) but tempera settings menu was still unclickable! I tried also chromium but nothing changed.
What can I do?

Best regards,

Sara

P.S.: I choose your theme becouse I liked it a lot! 🙂 Thanks for everything!

[Kay]

Hi again guys,

@Catalin Baicu Actually I am one of the theme developers 😉 And the reason we suggested a force refresh (normal refreshes don’t do the trick so you must go the Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+R way) is because in this 1.4.0 update we’ve moved some JS files around inside the theme and browser cache may remember them somewhere else. And as you’ve seen, most other users found that the force refresh works. Also this is a local issue and other visitors on your sites would not encounter the issues you’re getting.

Anyway, first of all we’d have to ask you to disable the maintenance mode you have enabled right now so we can check the issue ourselves. Another thing would be to change themes and see if this still occurs. The issue with post images not showing really doesn’t have anything to do with this update. And a third thing to try would be to disable all plugins and check then.

@Daniel You have custom CSS code added to the theme. Your menu is absolute positioned and that doesn’t really work with responsiveness. Remove custom CSS related to the main menu’s positioning and everything should be back to normal.

Hi Kay,

thank you very much for your lightning fast answer! Now it looks exactly the way I imagined 🙂

This motivated me to play a little bit with around with CSS and I already managed to change the look and the colors of the e-mail subscribe field and button (with the help of “firebug”).

See you around in the forums!
Daniel

Hi Kay.

I have tried your recommendation by refreshing the website with ctrl+F5 or ctrl+R , even more I have simply refreshed with F5 on windows pc, and also by using the browser refresh button and all this for more then 10 times each, and still the images on the slideshow and all posts images are still broken and don’t show.

However, I have done also a big research into trying to downgrade to an earlier version of PARABOLA and seems that at least from the parabola team developers I have not yet received any help apart of suggesting to refresh my page which obviously turned to be of no help.

Anyway, refreshing my page was a primary instinct of mine when I saw this broken images straight after upgrading the parabola theme. But thank you anyway for your help and again I have to repeat that the problem with the new update of parabola v.1.4.0 is still not resolved!

[Kay]

Please search the plugin developer’s site for this type of info. It is not theme related. Anyway, as it states in the very link you gave us:

Open wp-content/themes//index.php
You may place it in archive.php, single.php, post.php or page.php also.
Find:
Add Anywhere Below It (The Place You Want The Views To Show):

As always, we recommend the use of child themes for modifications like these.

You can’t paste PHP in the custom footer text field. If you want to do this you’ll have to get your hands dirty and edit some .php files. /includes/theme-functions.php would be the place where it’s at. As always it’s recommended that you use child themes.

Good luck!

Hi Rick and thanks for your feedback and for sharing your experience.

These type of issues can also be caused by faulty plugins. Should other people encounter ‘locked’ theme settings you should disable all plugins for a moment and check the theme settings then.

Good luck!

Hi Daniel,

Add this to the Custom CSS area:

.footermenu, .footermenu + span {
display: table !important; float: none !important; margin: 0 auto !important;
}

Thanks for the kind words and good luck!

I would rather recommend to install an earlier version of parabola instead downgrading wordpress. To downgrade wordpress is not a good idea at all as well as parabola theme is not good to downgrade it for security reasons but since there is a problem (a bug) with the theme, I only see this one option to downgrade parabola instead wordpress. However, since there is no support here on the website in regards to this issue from the author of the theme, I don’t see any solution but to downgrade to an earlier version. Now another problem is that an earlier version is not to be found on the website and so far on the internet as well. So….!!!

The “Leave A Reply” Cannot be shut off. Why? I’ve spent hours looking at php settings in the editor. This is absurd. I simply want to shut off comments or replies on a page. Why is that so hard?

[Kay]

Hi again Julie,

Right now it’s not possible but we’ll add this option in a future update. Thanks a lot for the feedback.

Hi Danielle,

Go to the theme settings page >> Graphics and you’ll see an option called ‘Menu Alignment’. You don’t need to edit and CSS for this.

Good luck!

The problem appears jQuery related I’m getting the following error when testing w/ IE script debugger:

SCRIPT438: Object doesn’t support property or method ‘tinyNav’
sandyhookvillage.com.qts.arvixevps.com, line 101 character 6

Code:
jQuery(document).ready(function(){
// Add select navigation to small screens
jQuery(“#access > .menu > ul”).tinyNav({
header: ‘ = Menu = ‘ // Show header instead of the active item
});
});

I have running WP 3.9 and not installed new plugins since this error started.

[Cliff Dugan]

Has this problem been fixed I am now experiencing the same issue with the Presentation Page Slider disappearing. This is a very important website for the town of Sandy Hook Connecticut.

Hi Kay and Terrance

I was just wondering where you put that particular piece of code to get it working?

Thanks

[Kay]

Hi guys,

Files at WordPress.org are held on 4 different servers and once in a blue moon it happens that the theme files on one of those servers get corrupted. Since every time you click download you get the files from a different server, you sporadically download the corrupted version of the theme.

So the best solution when this happens is to download the files again (or re-install the theme from the dashboard again). This usually fixes the problem as you’re probably getting the files from a different server which has the correct theme files.

Anyway, we’ve already submitted a notice to the WordPress Theme Repository Team and they’ll rebuild the theme files on all the servers. We’ll let you know when that happens.

Sorry for any inconvenience but this one’s totally out of our hands.

Optimize Press is incompatible with Mantra – I suspect it is a javascript conflict – although the pages seem to work fine once you get them put together. I suggest building them on a subsite, using the OP theme (you don’t need to use the plugin if you are using the theme), saving them, exporting them from the build site and uploading to the build site. You may have to switch themes briefly to import them and test them.

Good luck!

[Kay]

Although it may not seem like it this is more of a WordPress thing rather than a theme issue and it can get pretty complicated for a novice user.

Here are details about the WP comment_form() function http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/comment_form

Anyway, in Tempera all comment related functions are found in the /includes/theme-comments.php file. If you’re gonna try and edit anything remember to backup your files and use a child theme.

We are considering making these editable fields in a future update.
