    Under Mantra Settings > Text Settings, you just type in the names of the Google fonts you want to use for particular areas and the theme will do the rest.

    Create a transparent 1100×75 pixels image and place your 250×75 logo in the top left (actually just left). Then you’ll have a 1100×75 pixels image where only your initial size image is visible.

    Remember to save it as PNG.

    The “New Posts” sections is not a “page” per se, but a category section. Categories display the posts set to that category (and subcategories), not static content.

    If you weren’t using the magazine layout, the workaround would have been to create a page using the “Category page with intro” template with the same slug “new-posts”, change the menu item to link to that page instead of the category, then add the banner to the “new-posts” page.

    But the category page with intro template does not support magazine layout.

    We’ve also received your support thicket on this. Unfortunately there’s some issue with our emails so you most likely did not receive the automated confirmation.

    This will require a bit of custom work, but I’ll get back to you with the solution as soon as possible.

    That issue should actually manifest itself on IE8, not Firefox.

    I use Firefox and I see you’ve set black as the header background colour.

    Elizabeth, if you’re by any chance using the ‘Category Page with intro’ page template, that one doesn’t display comments.  Pages, categories and posts are 3 separate things (using 3 separate templates, as far as the theme is concerned). I’m not sure from your statement what works and what doesn’t.

    This only applies to the first sidebar. If you’ll ever use two sidebars, you’ll need to duplicate this for #secondary.

    The header responsiveness should improve in the upcoming 1.9.9.7 update.

    The slider is the backbone of the presentation page, so I don’t think there will ever be an option to hide it.

    But you can easily hide it using custom CSS: .slider-wrapper { display: none; } or by editing the theme-frontpage.php file (preferably in a child theme) and comment out / delete the slider code.

    Mantra was not designed with dark backgrounds in mind, so there are still some hiccups to be sorted out.

    Could you give me a link with a page that features a troublesome pullquote? As I couldn’t find any on your site so far…

    Hi.

    Header scaling is on the list of things improved in the upcoming 1.9.9.7 (which should become available in a couple of days).

    in reply to: Mantra theme clashes with plugins #4161
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Notices are not harmful (after all, they’re just notices – in this case it could be caused by using some variables that have no values set). Production servers should not display notices (your server seems to be configured as a development environments). Then you get a warning caused by the fact that those notices get displayed before all other output.

    I’m not sure what “Bullit Proof Security” does, but if it’s the one enabling all the debug reporting, then you should turn that off (notices that is) for the time being.

    Thanks for pointing this out, we’ll investigate to see if this is indeed an issue with the theme (we develop the theme on production servers with all debugging turned on and I did not see these messages so far). If it is indeed a theme issue, we’ll fix it by the next update. But for now it is not something critical.

    Did you try disabling installed plugins to make sure it is not a jQuery/script incompatibility?

    There are some typos in there. For example, there are two : after background-image instead of one. Should be:

    background-image:url("http://wordpressoddballexotics.xlconsultinggroup.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/Williams-logo6.png");

    I think there’s a typo there – the !important goes before the ;

    .column-image { border: 3px solid #000 !important; }

    As a general rule, when CSS fails, add !important 🙂

    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    If you’d have the site running on a public domain, I could easily use Firebug’s “Net” functionality to determine which css files fail to load (and why).

    But since you are developing this on localhost, you’ll have to inspect this yourself.

    in reply to: Cannot write comments on blog page #3884
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    You should do the opposite of this to make the comment form show up.

    The “Leave a comment” doesn’t refresh the page, it actually moves you from http://www.oaklandjoe.com/blog/ (the blog page with only 1 post URL) to http://www.oaklandjoe.com/next-post-this-is-a-test/#respond (the post’s URL). And it should also scroll down to the comment form – if it were visible.

    I assume you disabled comments on pages for fear of spam. Keep in mind that comments written while you’re logged in are not treated the same as comments written by visitors that are not logged in. Did you submit a comment while not being logged in?

    in reply to: Adjust column size on presentation page #3882
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    The front page columns will always take up equal percentages of the total site width so that they occupy the whole space.

    Using 4 columns means they will each take up 25%, 3 columns – each 33%, 2 columns – each 50% and one column will take up the entire width.

    If you force a particular width on them, the columns will no longer appear centred on page as free space will remain on the right side.

    There’s a “Custom Footer Text” field under Mantra Settings > Graphics Options (I know, not the most intuitive place to put it) and the theme also support a footer menu so you can add any links you wish extra to the footer text.

    in reply to: How to separate header text and image #3880
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    You can do this with code changes (quite a bit of work); or you can do this the “workaround way” by using a header image that is transparent in the top area, then move the site title and description over that transparent area using CSS so it no longer appears over the image.

    You can set any number of slides you want if you use post-generated slides.

    For custom slides, the number of posts will remain 5 for now  (since we plan on redefining the way the slides are configured in a future version anyway)
