I linked to the blog section because our Mantra demo setup does not have enough posts to activate the pagination on category sections. However, I tested this on one of our test sites and links there work as expected.

As I told you before, pagination links are generated using core WordPress functionality and are not controlled by the theme – however, these are generated based on your WordPress permalink settings.

I notice that your example URL:
https://yoursite.com/yourcategory/page/2/
is missing the category base in the permalink – by default category/
making the correct URL be:
https://yoursite.com/category/yourcategory/page/2/

Unless you’ve set up a complex fine-tuned permalinks configuration, the base for categories/tags cannot be empty.

Nevermind. Solved it.

For anyone trying to achieve the same, i used this code in custom CSS:

.widget-title, #comments-title, #reply-title, .related-posts .related-main-title, .main .page-title, #nav-below em, .lp-text .lp-text-title, .lp-boxes-animated .lp-box-title {
	background-image:none;
}

Hi,

The theme is designed with a menu appearance where all menu items fit in the allotted space (on the target screen sizes). If this does not happen, then the menu will overflow on top of the header image / slider image (depending on the site section viewed).
This can be avoided by ensuring the header content (logo/title, menu, socials) fit in the available width.
In the Plus edition of the theme it is additionally possible to reconfigure the screen width at which the desktop menu (that could be overflowing) gets replaced by the smaller mobile menu.

Hi,

Frontend not updating instantly after making changes in the dashboard is usually an indication that some form of caching is preset. Since you didn’t include an URL, I cannot look for the usual caching plugins signatures to confirm this.

The menu layout should be displayed exactly as you have configured it in the dashboard (if you use a custom menu). If you rely on the default pages menu, then that should use the pages’ set hierarchy.

Hi,

Using different content for the icon blocks (as well as featured boxes and text areas) is a feature that’s only available in our Plus edition of the theme.
The free edition, due to WordPress.org guidelines on the numbers of allowed custom fields in the theme options, is limited to only being able to use the same posts and pages that are also the target (linked to) from the blocks and boxes.

Hi,

The theme uses core WordPress function calls to retrieve the appropriate (page/post/section) title. You can make use of the available the_title filter to hook your own code, check for the section that’s being currently processed and override the text returned accordingly.

Is there a specific reason you want to use a separate title in the dashboard from what’s displayed publicly on the site?

Hi,

That really depends on what specific changes you’ve made (and what version of the theme you’d be updating from).
As a general rule it’s a bad idea to make changes directly to themes or plugins installed from the repository (or third party sources). For themes you can usually use the Additional CSS field for just CSS tweaks or implement a child theme for more complicated customizations.

Since updating now would actually require to transfer these changes to the new theme version (the opposite of implementing the theme update changes would most likely require more work), I suggest you take the opportunity to also transfer the tweaks out of the theme’s files.

Hi,

The query block uses very different markup for its output from the regular posts list displayed by the theme, so none of the existing posts list appearance styling will apply to it.
Unfortunately, there’s no easy way (CSS class/identifiers) to change this.

I used an unfamous plugin called: Catch Sticky Menu
And this works in the Theme Nirvana for desktop and mobile view perfectly.

Desktop menu selector: #access
I left the Mobile Menu Selector empty because I don’t want a sticky menu on mobile.

However, when I wanted te mobile menu to get sticky, do not use #access or #nav-toggle
because this won’t work well with z-index.

Instead use for Mobile Menu Selector: #header.
Then the z-index is right. The mobile header and menu is sticky.

My problems with Sticky menu in the Nirvana theme:
– The hamburger menu shows, but it won’t stick
– Clicking on the hamburger menu (despite giving max/min-sizes) will not show the menu while holding the mobile phone vertically.
– When turning horizontally, the menu shows, depending on min/max size in the width that is given
– could not deactivate the plugin for mobile view. So: no menu on mobile.

I think Zed is on vacation.
Unfortunately there is no update in my account, I am now working without a child theme again, so the graphic errors have now disappeared for me.
Posting works again since I swapped WordPress’s Classic Editor for a different one.
_______________________________________________________________
Ich denke Zed hat Urlaub.
In meinem Konto ist leider kein Update, ich arbeite nun wieder ohne Child Thema, dadurch sind die Grafikfehler bei mir jetzt verschwunden.
Das Erstellen von Beiträgen geht wieder, seit ich den Classic Editor von WordPress gegen einen andern getauscht habe.

[Otti]

I have the same problem here.
Various graphic errors and I can no longer change the posts or create new ones.
There is no update available for the child theme, what’s the next step?

Ich habe das gleiche Problem hier.
Diverse Grafik Fehler und ich kann die Beiträge nicht mehr ändern oder neue erstellen.
Für das Child Thema ist kein Update verfügbar, wie geht es weiter?

Hi,

same issue here. The search bar is not displayes as wanted in safari. There is a white background, so you cannot see the search Icon or text. Transparency is not applied to the background of the search bar. I tried some CSS changes, but this did not help.

Please have a look.

Hi,

Custom CSS is included from the options directly inline, after the main styling file. You can check if your changes are present right after being done by viewing the source of the site.
WordPress’ additional CSS field content is included the same manner, but a bit later in the source.

A delay in changes taking effect until a bigger change is done to the site is usually a clear indication of caching being present and not clearing properly (in some cases there may even be multiple levels of caching).

Hi @MichaelWieden,

I would need to browse your site to investigate this further. Could you provide a link?

The static homepage is core WordPress functionality – to activate it you need a (static) page, normally with content since WordPress will use it on the site’s homepage.

The theme extends this existing functionality through its landing page feature, which allows additional special content on the homepage beside that one static page, and even allows you to disable the static page’s use entirely (in which case a blank homepage can also be used; but note that the page’s properties such as title will still normally be used for meta/SEO purposes).

Hi Zed,
Thanks for the answer and solution.
On a first view it seems to solve the issue.

Hi,

Please see my answer on Anima as the same functionality applies.

Thanks for pointing out the glitch on our Kahuna (Plus) demo, I reconfigured the limit.

Hi,

There are multiple plugins for embedding fonts on the site in the .org repository, however none of them would integrate in any way with Nirvana’s options (to make the embedded fonts selectable in the font lists). There is currently no way to apply custom fonts beyond Google Fonts through Nirvana’s options – this needs to be done manually (with CSS) for the respective content elements.

We’ll try to add support for custom font identifiers beside the existing Google Fonts support with a theme update.

Hi,

The theme uses Google Fonts when configured to do that – by using the dedicated Google font identifier fields in the options. If you leave the identifier fields empty and select any of the fonts from the preset fonts list, those rely solely on browser/operating system support.

It is not currently possible to set custom font names through Nirvana’s options (to apply manually embedded fonts, for example) – but we’ll try to add this in a future update.

Hi,

Archive sections (tags/categories) don’t have built-in support for individual featured images so they can’t make use of the theme’s featured images in header functionality.

I have not personally tested its functionality, but this plugin appears to support custom header images for categories and tags.

Hi. I’m experiencing links on a category page not working. The links in the widget work, but nothing in the post excerpt section, including the twitter and facebook buttons. Thanks. See the link below.

[TigerWolf]

Thank you!

It is almost perfect, but not exactly.
I want 2 rows, with the second longer.

Is this also possible?

[Zed]

Hi,

That cannot be achieved through the options but should be doable with custom CSS.
However, since there are multiple elements that have a background color set and can also display posts, I’d need to see the exact places you want transparent indicated in a screenshot, if possible.

Hi,

Each text area has a title and content section (the title and content of the source page). If you require an extra title beside the page title itself, you’d be able to partially achieve that by using one extra text area just for the extra title (but there aren’t 8 text areas in the free Bravada) and/or perhaps by using the featured boxes section for their titles (and leaving them empty of content by assigning an empty category).

Hi,

I feel it’s rather harsh to consider a theme abandoned after 5 days of no replies on a free support forum.

Anyway, to answer your question I will need more information since I can’t really pinpoint what the desired outcome of “enforce left-alignnment for the entire theme” would need to be.
– Are you referring to the general text alignment?
– Do you mean the blockquotes (since those are the ones targeted in your CSS)?
– Do you want to left-align text in blockquotes? (it already is)
– Are you looking to left-align the blockquotes as a whole?

body .entry-content blockquote {
    margin-left: 0;
}

Hi,

When the featured boxes (or pages or blocks for that matter) show a different excerpt or content than what they should (and generally the same everywhere) that’s usually an indication of a plugin filtering the content on that site section. Since the plugin isn’t aware of the theme’s specific functionality, when it filters the core content/excerpt retrieval functions, it returns the content/excerpt of the main static page everywhere.

The most frequent cause of this are content builders plugins being used on the static page that’s assigned as the homepage. If that is your case as well, you’ll need to avoid using the builder to create the content for the home static page.

Hello, I am having similar issues. I have set the home page as a static page and then created some landing page features along side this. Now the static page itself will not show up at all. I have tried even connecting other pages as the static page and does not work. I tried deactivating all plug ins and then reactivating them but did not work. Can someone assist me as I am really stumped at how to get around this bug with the theme.

ok. Menu problem is fixed.
Does somebody know how I can change what is written in the field “search”?
