  1. Quick question, I have a form on a page, but the radio buttons and checkboxes show the cooresponding text underneath the actual button, instead of beside. Like this:

    Will you need information about staying in a local hotel?
    ()
    Yes
    ()
    No

    It is confusing because the spacing looks correct, but the text option for the radio button shows up on the next line. Is there a setting that I am missing?

    Love the theme! Thank you!

  2. Hello, thank you for the cool theme! I seem to be missing something though. The content text in Posts is stuck on one color (black) and I have set a dark background. t may be due to my selecting Heading 2,3, 4, etc. (instead of Paragraph) as Heading 2 does not resolve to it’s expected size in relation to the other Heading selections. Thanks, again, for the theme…very versatile.

  3. Is there a way to make the parent page of the main menu not linkable? For instance, I would like my parent menu item “yoga” to just have the dropdown menus (submenus) without the ability to click on yoga. Thank you!

  4. Hi!

    Im pretty new to this and are now trying out this theme, i really like it so far..

    But i would love to change the Sidebars size, independent from each other? Now the action button from search widget always jump down a row 🙁 If i set it not to be static site i can get i work but then both sidebars will be really wide and site looks funny.

    Is there any way i can fix this? Use 3 columns theme with main to left and 2 smaller on right side..

    Very thankful for some help

    1. While independent sidebars sizes is a great feature idea, it is not possible at the moment (because of how the sidebars are coded at the moment). We’ll try to build this in for version 2.0…
      3 sidebars (+ main = 4 columns) will most likely never be implemented. The work for adding proper handling for another sidebar grows exponentially with each sidebar.

  5. Could you precise the parameters that have to be set if I want to change the background color and the font color of level 2 and level 3 menus?
    I assume they are inherited from different sources as they don’t appear the same way.

  6. Hi guys!! Congratulations for this amazing theme.. 😉
    I’m working on a web site where I need to use the presentaiotion page, but is seems not be working; selecting “Last posts” as slides, I can read the posts below the image, but I can’t see any images sliding. Which images it’s supposed to load? (I have an image at the beginnining of each post).
    Considering tha I have a side menu for this site, how to remore the main (horizontal) menu? Is there any way to get the side menu (widget) in one of the four column?

    Thank’s so much, I really appreciated your work as well as your help! 🙂

    1. You need to set the images as “featured images” on the posts for them to be used in the slider.
      You can use CSS #access { display: none; } to completely hide the menu (not that it still is there, just invisible). And you cannot display a menu in one of the columns without modifications to the theme files.

  7. hi, I just download mantra theme, but like to know which file at the editor page can be edited?

    E.g. like you said before use anchors link text here in any of those text fields. but where should I insert this to? I try insert into the extra text/ top tittle but nothing no link appear?

    Please help as i’m new to this..

  8. Hi!
    Yep I have this warm feeling now I donated for http://www.oeecoach.com...
    You did a great job so to all users: support these guys so they can keep up the good work!

    Now the little questions;
    1. To remove the standard texts in the footer: do I go to the source or is there a setting?
    2. Some versions ago, in the default header there was a vertical separator between the header and subheader text. I liked that very much. Is it possible to have it back??

    Best,
    Arno

    1. Same as any theme. In the Menus section, make your own menu. Then place the pages/categories you want in the dropdown under it’s parent, so it’s slightly to the right. If done correctly, you will have the dropdown 🙂

  9. Hi I absolutely love your theme… Have received many compliments on our website (abbymiddle.com)

    I am wondering, can you tell me how to format the post titles For example, I would like to bold the titles and dark the grey background behind the post date. Where in the editor do I look?

  10. Can’t seem to find the answer here. How do I go around getting a logo on my site? I don’t want to use the custom header image, but rather just use my fine logo and keep it at that. 🙂

  11. what a fantastic job. Truly.

    I’m having an issue that the columns on the index page are all lined up vertically instead of horizontally. They are stacked one upon the other, with only half of the column showing. Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

  12. I am using Mantra, which I love at http://lanpartymania.com

    I have a problem when viewed with mobile browsers. It removes the banner completely, but it also adds a “Navigation” link to the dropdown box which doesnt exist on my server. If a user selects this link, they get an error 404 not found. Is there anyway to remove this link?

    1. I see you’ve disabled mobile view.
      The navigation link is actually a drop down menu copying of the site’s main menu. And it should work…
      The banner is hidden on mobile devices as it is not yet responsive (plus it eats up cpu for animations).

  13. (Incidentally, THANK YOU SO MUCH for evening providing support. I’m coming over from Joomla and am having the worst time acclimating with WP. Near every free them I attempted to work with offer 0 support without fees. This forum really rocks of you, thanks)

    1. There’s no built-in option for that (yet). You’ll have to play around with custom CSS on #content (the main text body), #primary (left sidebar) and #secondary (right sidebar) to resize them.

  14. Hey everyone, I seem to have lost my sidebar information. It used to be there and now it is not. Not quite sure where it went; I put some overriding CSS on my site to move a few things around and format them, but nothing that should be affecting the sidebar stuff. If anyone could help I’d appreciate it.

    1. Well, your sidebar is there, so the CSS isn’t hiding it. But it is empty.
      So go to Appearance > Widgets and make sure you’ve put the content to the right sidebar, as there are two sidebars and several sidebar areas…

  15. Hi… firstly… awesome theme !!! Thanks
    I am testing it now for my new site under construction (negroyblanco.com).
    I have 4 questions:
    how can I center the menu?
    how can I center the social icons?
    I don’t know what happen with my logo, when I test in mobile it disappears
    In mobile view the title of the drop navigation menu is Inicio (my home page), however the title “Navigation” is below (with link to a “not found” page)
    Can you help me specially the two mobile issues?
    Thank you very much (sorry for my english)
    and again… awesome

    1. On that page in particular you can use .hentry { margin: 0; } to bring the posts closer together. But other than that there’s not much you can do to squeeze things in…
      There are two indentation options and a line height option, but we can’t very well make up options for every css-controllable feature for every particular spot in the theme… that’s what custom CSS is for 🙂
