    Depends on what you’re seeing when you enable debugging.

    If it’s just debug information and notices, things should still work.

    If you’re getting warning or even errors, that’s bad…

    I can confirm the mobile menu is acting a bit strange.

    We’re looking into it.

    What you could do is view your pages/posts with the text editor and make sure all <img> tags which you do not want indented are outside the <p> tags.

    But you need to check if switching back to the visual editor doesn’t undo this and wrap images in paragraphs again – making you have to do this check every time you edit the text.

    Not quite.

    Wordpress’ rich editor usually encapsulates <img> tags inside <p> tags (which have the indentation applied to them)

    With a bit of CSS knowledge, it can be done.
    I haven’t looked for a plugin as I was able to just use CSS – see http://www.zedt.eu

    There are (yet) no options for that, but you can use custom CSS to change any colours.

    What particular areas do you want to change the colour to?

    I need to see your website to figure this out.
    The theme does not control titles capitalization.

    in reply to: edit tag line #3478

    Trick question πŸ™‚

    Wordpress doesn’t accept HTML in the site tagline, so a <br> cannot be used.
    A trick would be to limit the width of the site tagline container, so the text wraps at the desired point.

    To do this, use this CSS: #site-description {width: 50px; } and change the value until you split the text into two lines at the desired point.

    You may also need to play around with line-height and padding/margin to make it fit correctly.

    in reply to: Presentation Page Does Not Allow Posts #3477
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    This is not (currently) a built-in function. Posts can be used for the slider, but anything else on the presentation page is static text/HTML.

    It can although be done by anyone good enough with coding and WordPress to write in the code him/her-self for this.

    No, the columns cannot be increased (easily).

    You can chose to display any number of columns between (including) the built-in 0 and 4. That means: no columns, 1 column, 2 columns, 3 columns or 4 columns.

    You chose the number of displayed columns in β€œNumber of columns:” in the Presentation Page section of the theme settings area.

    in reply to: increase font on tagline? #3475
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Both the site title and the tagline can be styled using custom CSS.
    #site-title span a { } for the title
    #site-description { } for the description

    You’d need something like
    #site-description {font-size: 20px; }

    I’m glad we got that sorted out πŸ™‚

    You need to fill in your site title and tagline in WordPress – Settings > General. Then they will be displayed in the browser title (and to search engines), but since they’re hidden by the settings, they won’t show up over your header image.

    As a general solution for anyone else encountering this issue, delete / erase / clear the cache and then turn off and disable caching plugin(s) – if you use such a plugin.

    Hopefully you’ve received the replies I wrote today, but if not, I’m copying them here as well (as there’s no private information in them):

    The search bar question:

    That is the default WordPress “search page”. As you can see even in their demo, http://twentyelevendemo.wordpress.com/?s=search&submit=Search the big search bar in the middle of the page is right there.

    If you don’t like that, you can remove the form from inside mantra/search.php.
    Just delete or comment out get_search_form();

    Just remember a child theme would be better to implement your customizations as you will not lose them in updates.

    And the other question(s):

    I see no pending outgoing emails so our emails must be blocked by your email server. Your server doesn’t like our host/ip πŸ™

    And no, you don’t have to donate each time you have a question to ask. Just use the same transaction id, or reference your previous ticket number (so we can find that easily), or just write that you previously donated but don’t remember any numbers (and we’ll do the searching instead) πŸ™‚

    PS: I recommend reading question C11 in the FAQs on how to properly hide the site title without leaving a stray dash in the browser title…

    You can display any number between 0 and 4 columns – see “Number of columns:” in the Presentation page settings for that.

    Read more is defined right below that, in the “Read more text:” field.

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    If you want to do more than the “default”, you’ll have to learn CSS… and HTML too πŸ™‚

    W3C has information for anything concerning HTML and CSS – see thead and class.

    And yes, I mean the custom CSS field under Miscellaneous in Mantra Settings, the place where you can type in all your custom CSS so you don’t have to change any theme files.

    If the image URLs are correct, the slider not working is usually caused by a javascript error.

    Follow the checklist to rule out an incompatibility between extensions.

    You can only type filtered HTML into the presentation page fields. Shortcodes don’t work (yet).

    There’s no other way of doing this (currently) than to modify the theme-frontpage.php file and hard-code HTML or shortcodes.

    in reply to: Main text overlapping the left sidebar in IE 8, what to do? #3435
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Yes, IE 8 is the lowest we go.

    IE 8 in compatibility mode is in fact IE 7, and IE 7 is insane to create websites for… I can’t even debug a simple CSS on it…

    Nonetheless, I think I know what is causing this and I’ll try to find a workaround (which doesn’t break the website for all other browsers).

    I found this browsing the source of your site

    so some files are indeed changes (or damaged).

    Export your theme settings, uninstall Mantra and reinstall it, then restore your theme settings.

    We never got to such a number of posts in a slider category in our tests, but numbers shouldn’t be an issue.

    I’ll try this out and see if I can reproduce the issue.

    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    You’re on the right track… but not quite πŸ™‚
    Don’t include php files in the CSS. “require…” is a php function, it won’t do anything in a CSS file.

    Mantra’s files are not automatically replaced with child theme files if they get detected.
    You need to create a functions.php file in your child theme and include your custom child theme files (copy Mantra’s functions.php file and edit it to include your own files). Keep in mind your directory structure.

    Also, not all Mantra functions are over-ridable easily with child themes. Some need to be unhooked and their child theme copies hooked in their place.
    But at least the front-page function does not need this.
