  1. Hi. Re: the custom boxes under the slider. Can you tell me if its possible to have the caption words permanently at the top of the box as apposed to at the bottom of the box where they currently are only when you hover the cursor over that part of the box. Thanks
    Peter

  2. Casadelydia, I’ve done this purely in experimentation. Just empty all of the settings, photos and type from all of the slider control, and it will do exactly what you want. You can also uncheck the box that says to use the slider.

  3. Hi Zed. How do I remove the slider from the presentation page so I can use that space for a call to action and or move up the boxes below the slider?
    Great theme

    thanks
    Pete

  4. First, I love the theme. I searched for months before finding it.

    My question is this. My site is primarily a blog site. I have five separate pages. Or topics. Many people will be blogging on these various pages. When making comments, is there a way to allow someone to post a picture along with their comment? Or copy and paste a photo and article from Facebook without having to enter and html code in the comment?

  5. The headers look great on laptop but are squeezed on iPhone. The headers are all the correct size. How do I make sure phone version headers look ok? I see an option in template for responsive. It says do not recommend you use this at the side

  6. I have a blog with blogger. I have registered my blog using a gmail account. Now, I want to use a new gmail account and I wanted to import my whole blog along with the posts and comments to this new gmail id.. . Please tell me, is this possible and how can it be done?.

  7. Hi Zed, I really like this theme a lot. I went through all the threads on the WordPress support forum and I noticed that questions don’t really get answered, is that correct? So I’m trying here 🙂

    I would like to add more images than the Parabola slider (5) provides. I made posts and added a specific category to them, and put in the featured image with the size of the slider. I tried the option of the specific post and the option with the specific category. Neither works. I don’t want to publish the posts because for me it’s just a workaround to get more pictures in the slider (10 in total). Did I do something wrong or do these options only work if you publish the posts? Do you have another suggestion to add more images to the parabola slider on the presentation page?

    [if not, I would like to do a feature request to be able to add more images to the slider up to 10-15.]

    All help would be much appreciated!

    Kind regards, Sandra

    1. Hi Zed, are you very busy of is there another reason why you haven’t answered my question? Because I would still like very much to have more slides in the slider.

      And I have an additional question. In the author box beneath the blog posts my gravatar doesn’t appear. Is there somewhere else where I should install this?

      Help would be much appreciated!

      My site is http://www.remakeme.nl

    2. Hi Zed, are you very busy, or is there another reason my question doesn’t get answered? I would really like more than 5 slides (10 slides) in my slider, and in the above post I’ve asked why the specific category or featured image doesn’t work.

      Another question: why is my gravatar not visible in the authors box beneath the blog pages? Do I have to configure that someplace (else) other than the gravatar company?

      Please, answer my questions it would make me really happy.

      Kind regards, Sandra Stokmans

  8. A fix for the new woocommerce theme:

    custom css (theme options):

    /* Parabola Custom CSS */
    #content ul{
    background-color:white;
    }
    .woocommerce ul.products li.product, .woocommerce-page ul.products li.product {
    margin: 3.8% 0 0 3.8% !important;
    float: left !important;
    }
    #woocommerce-result-count{
    background-color:white;
    }
    #sidebar{
    background-color:white;
    }
    #sidebar li {
    margin-left:3.8%;
    }

  9. I am working on a clients website. we managed to change the color on the presentation page behind the slider to black to make it blend into the black background, but after fiddling with the settings I still cannot make the column “buttons” background black or transparent so that his round buttons show up without any frame at all. I have flipped through the forum for over two days now, run several searches on Google search and still cannot find how to change this for him. please help.

  10. Hi,
    I just want to let you know that I absolutely love your great parabola theme.
    Being a beginner, I struggled far less than expected because everything is clear and intuitive.
    Although I have to say that I still have a – very- long way to go with my site, but it is a real pleasure to work with such a great theme (not to say team).
    You did a really amazing job!
    Thanks you so much.

  11. Hey Zed, thanks for a great theme!

    I’d like to write a custom page template that removes the side margins entirely, so I can edit the entire width of the page. (This would only be for use on some pages- I’d keep standard formatting on the rest.) What’s the best way to do this?

    Jake

  12. I need help with putting my logo on the top. i checked the dropdown box for custom logo then uploaded my logo. saved, then refreshed my site over and over again. Why is it not showing up? PLEASE HELP!! I HAVE A DEADLINE

  13. Hi Zed,
    I’ve just updated to the new version. When I go into Parabola settingsI’m able to highlight each setting but the setting does not open. Can you advise me on what might be wrong?
    Thanks,
    Jack

  14. None of my social media icons are working. When I click on them they stay on the same page. I’ve tried removing the links and adding the links to no avail.

  15. Hi Zed!

    How do I rearrange my front page so that my posts/page updates are visible after the presentation slides but BEFORE the presentation columns?

    Thank you for your time!!
