I want to disable the slider on the presentation page, as I’m not needing it at all, but there’s badly no option for it 🙁 I’m using a child theme and all I found was (when I tried to find the right file for customizing, a function called

if ($mantra_frontpage=="Enable" && is_front_page() ) {
mantra_frontpage_generator();
} 

but haven’t found the code of the function right now ;(

How can I do that?

Hi,
For some reason the slider just won’t work on my website, I am very new to the theme so it may be that I just haven’t figured it out yet.
The presentation page is enabled, and I have uploaded several slides, but for some reason they just do not show up on the actual website.
Not really sure what to do- having read the above posts, I tried disabling the other plugins but this didn’t make a difference.
I have updated WordPress, so it is the most recent version.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
Sarah

Thank you VERY much! Somehow I didn’t immediately notice that after installing the latest Mantra update, but now I can see the difference as I “test navigate” my way through the drop-down menus. Perfect!

Help Please!!! 🙂

Hi Gang –
So I tried this myself manytimes but to no avail. I know (at least I suspect) I need to work with the header.php file right before the <!– #branding –> div.

Anyone has an idea how should this be done? Any hints greatly appreciated.

thanks
gabi

I tried C23 Faq’s but can’t find #access, #access .menu { text-align:center; } in CSS

The drowdowns now have both a show delay and a hide delay, to make the navigation less prone to errors when moving the mouse incorrectly.

There are no configurable options for these delays.

Parabola supports full-width header image, but in a not-documented (yet) way:

Remove your current header image and leave the header background colour field empty. Do set the header the desired height, though.

Then use this custom CSS to define the full-width header image:

#header-full { background: url(path/to/full/header/image.png) top|center|bottom center|left|right no-repeat|repeat-x; }

Keep in mind this image is not responsive and also that you’ll need a proper sized image that either repeats itself cleanly or looks properly on all screen sizes.

The mobile menu should behave itself in the latest 2.0.7.x updates.

The “mobile” option is now called “responsiveness” and it’s under Layout Settings.

Remove any custom sizing you applied, revert your website width to a fixed value and remove your header image.

Also remove the header background colour by leaving the header background colour field empty.

Then add this custom CSS:

#header-full { background: url(path/to/your/full/width/header-image.png) top center no-repeat; }

Or you can leave background colour fields empty in the settings.

Update: Tried to reinstall the theme, got this message:
Unpacking the package…

Installing the theme…

The package could not be installed. The theme is missing the index.php file.

Theme install failed.

[Dwight Clough]

Okay … I’ve identified the problem … the sliders will not work for me as long as I’m logged into the site. The moment I log out of wordpress, the sliders work again. Apparently they are working fine for anyone not logged into the site.

[David]

Where is the mobile settings? I’ve looked all around the theme and can’t find it.

[Michael Jones]

I’ve been reading about issues with the WP 3.6 update and Mantra 2.0.7 but I was wondering if there was any news on this issue. Is this still a problem with the newest updates that have been released? I have about a month before the site I’m developing goes live, and while this is not a deal-breaker it is still something that needs to be resolved.

[Joel]

Well, while I much appreciate the 2.0.7.1 update, now that I have that installed, I don’t see any difference with the menu “tabs” (nor can I find anywhere new to modify something such as was originally noted). Unfortunately, they still are a bit “sensitive” when it comes to mouse movement/placement in relation to them. Am I missing something? 🙂

Note that this post was NOT in response to what appear to be menu-related issues after the 2.0.7 update was made available. This was submitted prior to then (and seems to still be a valid, separate request/issue).

Please assist if you can! Thanks again!

[Zed]

I hope the change introduced in version 2.0.7 is helpful 🙂

nevermind. I upgraded to the latest version of Mantra and all is good. (I swear that upgrade wasn’t available earlier…!?)

[Pantelis]

Question on that, cause i want to have also more “custom slides”.
I’m ok to create post generated slides and to put featured image and leave post empty.
Where should i change the code so i won’t have linkable/clickable slides/post (just slideshow of images as you can do on a custom selection of images)?

and also what class/id should i configure, so i won’t have nivo-caption appearing in the slideshow (the title of each post) ? i tried on custom css to add .nivo-caption {display: none; } but it kept appearing.
thanks in advance

OK, I found the “post excerpts settings” option. But the problem is now that the articles are cut after à precise number of words (50) whereas all my articles are cut at the end of a sentence with the “more text” option of the wordpress post editor. Moreover, each article begins with a picture which diseappears now.
To have an idea, here is a link of my photography category :

Yes, I know, it’s not Parabola. In fact I’m making test with Theme Test Drive before changing the theme. It’s just to give an exemple of what I mean and what I would like to see in this Posts page.

[Zed]

With Mantra it’s a bit trickier.

Start by creating a fully transparent empty 210x100px PNG image and set it as your logo in Mantra.

Then upload your dual-version logo image someplace on your site/server, and add this custom CSS:
a#logo img { background: url(/path-to-your-dual-version-logo/dual-logo.png) top center no-repeat; }
a#logo:hover img { background-position: 0 -100px; }

Add the link to the article itself in the URL field.

Is that the only field causing you issues? Does the custom CSS field get saved correctly?

This is missing from your download file.

opencart/admin/view/javascript/ckeditor/ckeditor.js

Is this supposed to be in the download file or do I need to get this file from somewhere else?

[Paul T]

I installed CR2 HTML Module and it did what I wanted it to do in the front-end except in the back-end section where to add the HTML and it says “HTML Content:
Use the “View Source” button to avoid any issues when writing complex HTML.”
It only has a input field with no WYSIWYG editor. I was able to past in html and it worked but not sure why the WYSIWYG editor isn’t showing. Have you got any ideas on why it may not show?

[Christy]

@ Zed. I’m not sure what browser he is using. I will check. The client brought it to my attention that the website was not showing any groupings of pictures together. It doesn’t seem to matter if it is created in with Nextgen Gallery or a plug-in that I have running on the bottom of the pages. This is one of the pages that have quite a few photos on it. http://regionfencesales.com/residential-fencing/ Do you know if it is Windows XP, the browser or what would be causing the pictures to stack on top of one another? Any help or direction you could give me would be very much appreciated.

[Arden]

Thank you! I got the update and now the footer is behaving nicely!

[Zed]

It depends on the browser you’re using in Windows Xp. If it’s the built-in Internet Explorer version 6 (or even 7), then these are no longer supported, are terribly insecure and broken and you should never touch them again.

If you encounter this issue on any updated browser, tell us the browser name and version.

Arden, you’re using an older version of Mantra. Please update to the latest version as the footer is now fully responsive.
