    Yes, using custom CSS πŸ™‚

    And this is not a bug…

    First off, the “Post Excerpts on Home / Archive and Category Pages” need to be set to “Excerpt” and the “Featured Images as POST Thumbnails” and “Auto Select Images From Posts” options need to be enabled.

    Then this is how the theme behaves:

    • on a post with featured image but no images inside, the featured image will be displayed
    • on a post with featured image and more images inside, the feature image will be displayed
    • on a post without featured image but with images inside, the first image from the content will be displayed
    • on a post without featured image and no images inside, no image will be displayed

    This way you have automatic post images (when you have images inside the post), which you can also override as you wish through the “featured image”.

    SoΒ  I do not believe that this behaviour needs any change.

    I think I already answered this through email…

    That is not Mantra. It’s either a plugin you are using, your host passing adds through your website or a program on your computer intercepting sites you are seeing and inserting adds in them.

    Not likely, but you could have installed/enabled a plugin that messes with the javascript functions used by Mantra.

    Disable newly installed/enabled plugins and see if the issue goes away. Then tell us the plugin in question so we can check it out and work out a proper solution.

    I see a different behaviour on our test site: the posts pictures display just fine, but the Digg Digg floating area fails to display on category pages displaying posts with pictures.

    We’ll look into this…

    I used featured images for posts on my blog as well, and I did not encounter this issue after updating.

    Did you test to see if this happens when all plugins are disabled? Could be an incompatibility between a plugin and the theme.

    If you remove those lines, of course the whole site is going be messed up. Those two lines output about half of the site’s HTML code (including the <head> and header sections).

    I don’t know anything about Facebook’s OpenGraph, but I’ll document myself and see if I can come up with an answer.

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    The uploader automatically detects the configured site width and configured header height and crops the uploaded header image to that size.

    Check your configured options and see if they are correct.

    While I can see the issue on your site, I cannot reproduce it on our test installs.

    Could you create a support ticket and send us an export of your theme settings? Perhaps a combination of options triggers the problem. (just type anything in the transaction id field).

    Did you try disabling any plugins and/or switching to one of the default themes and see if the issue still occurs?

    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…

    in reply to: Exclude Images from Indentation #3530
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    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.

    in reply to: Exclude Images from Indentation #3497

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Not quite.

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

    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?

    in reply to: edit tag line #3478
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
