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.

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.

Hi!

@Jason To remove the link from the Site title add this to the Custom CSS area:

#site-title span a {
cursor: default;
pointer-events: none;
}

@Chreste if you want to remove links from the menu, when creating a menu http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/wordpress-themes/wordpress-tutorials/how-to-use-a-custom-menu-in-your-wordpress-website leave the href field empty.

Hi guys and sorry for the lagged response.

The ‘cryout_header_hook’, just like the name implies is a hook. It’s not an editable function, it’s just a function that you can ‘hook’ into with your own custom functions.

Here’s more info on WordPress hooks and actions http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_action You can also google for more in-depth tutorials.

Good luck!

Hi Julie,

Yes, you can only choose one category for the columns. If you want more control over them there’s a “Specific Posts” option where you can add the IDs of the posts you want.

Also, you seem to be using the Presentation Page just like it was intended to. We just added a Showcase forum for Tempera but you can check the Parabola and Mantra Showcase forums for more inspiration/understanding.

Good luck!

Hey,

thanks for the theme, great work. But i want to change the background to transparent. I tried a lot but nothing worked. All the background sites in white is bad. So i want a transparent on it. Maybe you can help me out.

Thanks again

and sry for my english ^^

[Gerry]

I am using lots of images with captions. The problem is that to then carry on with text below the images, the only way I seem to be able to do this is add lots of ” ” line breaks. Is there a tidier way of doing this?

Thanks,

Gerry

[Steven Britton]

Hi Kay,

Those were the first two things I tried – disabling all the plugins and reinstalling the theme.

I just did the same thing again, to no avail.

Could it be a java/jquery thing?

Steve

[Aaron]

Yea I understand Ill lose my change. Its only one line of code though so I can always add it back. I also tried creating a menu in the reverse order, and it never took. The theme always put the navigation in the wrong order when justified right. I dont know why, but this fix works for now.

[Kay]

Hi marcella,

Your CSS is added just fine within the theme. The only problem is the actual CSS you are using. I suggest you read a bit about it if you’re going to use it extensively. http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_intro.asp

For example this:

element.style {
display: none;
float: right;
text-align: right;
padding: 5px 20px 5px;
text-transform: uppercase;
font-size: 14px;}

does nothing. It’s probably copied from Firebug or something similar but it doesn’t do anything.

You also have spelling errors like ‘ffont-family’ here

h1 {text-transform:uppercase; ffont-family: ‘Cutive Mono’, serif; color: #699; font-size: 20px; }

Also, remove all media='all' text from the CSS. That pretty much ruins all the CSS. You’re just not using it right. Here’s a quick read on how to use them http://www.w3schools.com/css/css_mediatypes.asp

Good luck!

I too was experiencing the same problems as Patrick. I have now updated my header file to include the new line from Angel – I now get the mobile menu icon appear when viewing on mobile (or at a reduced browser size). However, clicking on this icon does nothing. Menu items do not appear. Is anyone able to assist? Thanks

(My first post on these forums, love the Tempera theme!)

[Michael]

Hi,
When updating to 1.2 I had the strange arrow on Firefox while on IE I had a strange symbol like the one which shows location on a map. Moreover I lost the slider on IE (?!).
I refreshed both browsers (Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+R) just like Zed said and everything came to place.
Thanks Zed!!

[Kay]

Hi again Will,

The meta bar setting only affects post pages (blog, categories, archives etc.). On single pages the meta is fixed and split between above post content and below post content.

The menu alignment bug has been fixed and you can download the new theme version here https://wordpress.org/themes/download/nirvana.0.9.1.zip?nostats=1

With help from Brian (Supertech from Bluehost.com) we were able to solve the settings and category problems at the same time. We created a test folder in a different c-panel location from the wp-contents folder where my site is located. We installed a new copy of WordPress (in case the old was corrupted) then uploaded in new copy of Parabola. We created a dummy post, page and category. Then we checked to see if they displayed properly–which they did. Finally, we copied the contents of the Parabola folder from the tested site into the original site Parabola folder, replacing the corrupted contents. Apparently, Parabola’s settings are stored in the database, because all my original setting were preserved when the corrupted files were replaced. I hope this is a helpful repair option even though we still don’t know what files were corrupted. We do know, however, that the problem occurred after we installed the wooCommerce plugin.

[Rick]

The settings for Parabola are somehow have become locked and my categories will no longer display post excerpts form the menu. It’s a very stubborn problem, even restoring from backup doesn’t help. Any ideas

[terrence]

I am having the same issue with the header image getting cut off on the right side, specifically in landscape view on Kindles and iPads and some desktop resolution settings.

Has there been any resolution to this issue? Thanks!

[Walt]

They look fine. I would be more worried about taking a couple links off of your navigation menu so it doesn’t create a 2nd row.

[se80]

PPS: regarding the menu issue. I’d like to clarify that only accented letters are formatted as italics but they shouldn’t be. IE. The word “attività” looks like “attività“

[Zed]

Everything on the presentation page is configurable from the Presentation Page section in the theme settings. Clicking the sub-section titles will open up more fields.

Could we see a link to your site?

I believed this was caused by an unclosed <strong> tag and we solved it via the support system.

I believe we may have solved this issue via premium support, didn’t we?
If I’m wrong, check that you have no widget in the theme’s Header Widget area.

If you’ve updated to 1.2, font files did get moved around. Force a refresh in your browser (Ctrl+F5 or Ctrl+R) to correct the fonts (and javascript code for that matter).

If you get weird squares instead of the characters, my previous answer still applies.

I’m glad you found a solution.
You should suggest this change to the Woocommerce team, as you’re editing plugin files to correct behaviour.
I don’t believe we can bundle other plugins’ files to our theme.
