    Hi,
    WordPress does not provide an option for setting the default alignment mode for content images.
    Searching for information on this topic does reveal some old solutions which seem to no longer work in the current WordPress releases:

    Could you test if the slider works as expected when used somewhere else (inside a page/post, for example) or if you activate the buttons on another slide as well?

    in reply to: PHP version update issue #111140
    Zed

    I am not seeing any deprecation warning concerning that code structure when testing with PHP 7.4. We also currently develop on 7.3 (with debugging enabled) and I can see nothing similar there either.
    Deprecation and discouragement are varying levels for precursory information of upcoming changes before a specific way of coding becomes a warning (and later an error).

    Concerning the failure of your 5.3 to 7.2 update, that is relatively big jump and there’s a lot more code running on a WordPress site than just the theme – any of your extensions (including WordPress itself, depending on the version you were using) could have failed.
    The actual error messages (which should have been recorded to the error log) will reveal specific information on what went wrong.

    All our themes are released under the GPLv3 license, which means you can use (and abuse) them in any way you see fit, including adding, editing or removing parts of them, including the footer link.

    There is the side-effect, however, of us not providing free support if our credit link is removed. The commercial Plus edition of the theme does not come with such a link displayed by default (and has the built-in option to easily set your own text instead).

    Hi,

    The theme displays the configured number of boxes at all times; there is no built-in ‘more’ functionality to dynamically show additional boxes. Only the featured content section when set to display the latest posts has this ability.

    in reply to: ALT in header image main page #111136

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Parabola uses WordPress’ core get_header_image() function to retrieve the configured header image. This function only provides the image file URL and does not supply any additional information entered in the library (such as caption/alt texts).

    In newer themes we’ve relied on using the site’s title for the alt attribute, we’ll look into this for Parabola as well.

    But you may already have text that’s causing issues with the current server configuration, which may or may not be the same since the last time you successfully saved.

    I suggest looking if you have any characters from the extended set (beyond ASCII) in any of the input and textarea fields – if you do try removing them to see if that resolves the limitation.

    There are multiple markup errors on your site (tags not closing when they should, tags closing in a different order than the opening one, unaccepted tags nesting):
    https://validator.w3.org/nu/?doc=http%3A%2F%2Fholmensgarage.com%2F

    There is such an error even in the target #lp-boxes-1 elements:

    There’s an anchor there that’s opening in the title and closing in the description, which is not correct structure for HTML.

    All these can affect how the browser interprets the content, including how in-content links work.

    Thanks for the .text() suggestion, Brian.
    We used .html() because the code needs to take HTML tags into account when preparing titles for animation, but the solution is somewhere in the middle and will be included with the next theme update.

    Number formatting functions in PHP need to take a float input number, and this is the same problem with using that number directly in the CSS – it can have either a comma or a dot for decimals separator depending on regional settings.

    We’ll have to run some additional tests to see if number_format() can be a solution.

    You can also hide the header image (and the entire header area) on individual posts or pages using the theme’s meta options:

    From past experience we’ve reached the conclusion that (excluding permissions errors or plugins interfering with WordPress’ dashboard) such issues are usually caused by server restrictions or misconfiguration which either limit the amount of text that is accepted in the theme’s input/textarea fields or cannot support specific characters.

    To debug where the fault lies, I suggest making a theme settings export and leaving all the fields that hold large blocks of text empty to save the saving procedure. If this works with those fields empty, add their content back one by one (from the export) to see when the issue returns.

    You can use a site like unserialize.com to convert the export file to one that’s more easily readable.

    I’m sorry for the very delayed reply, your topic was held for additional review and didn’t get published on the site.

    Concerning the reported issue, I am not seeing this behaviour on the theme’s demo (which displays the top menu in the same location):

    I see you use a mega-menu plugin on your site for that menu location – I suggest trying to turn it off and use the default menu functionality to check if the issue is still present.

    Hi!

    I split your messages to a separate topic as this is distinct from the original topic.

    The opacity value is automatically generated by the PHP running on your hosting server as it is the result of the simple arithmetic of dividing the opacity percentage to 100.
    opacity: <?php echo esc_html( $theme_overlayopacity/100 ); ?>
    We have been reported a similar issue once before here, and it turned out to be due to PHP configuration (most likely something about localization).

    Hi

    I took a quick look at the indicated page and all content images appear to load fine for me in both Chrome and Edge (which is now Chromium-based).

    If you’re still seeing missing images on that page, perform a force refresh and check out the browser’s developer tools Console and Network tabs for any (red) error or blocked elements.

    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    I remember resolving this through the support system.
    For anyone else encountering a similar issue, the fault was tracked down to a version mismatch between the theme’s internals and the style.css file which made the settings plugin activate the wrong settings mode.

    As a result, the next settings plugin update will rely on the theme’s internal version number for compatibility check instead of the one in style.css (which is easier to change for customization purposes).

    Hi!

    Upon further checks I see that the absolute navigation is in fact broken in Kahuna since the 1.6.0 update.
    Thank you for pointing this out. We’ll get it fixed for the next theme update.

    The auto-update functionality is available for all WordPress.org repository themes and plugins, and we don’t have to enable anything for it to work:

    You did not include a link so I’m only guessing here, but if you’re using a child theme that is not published in the wp.org repository so it has no auto-update functionality to enable.

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    Hi!

    I have adapted the mini-plugin that force-adds the featured image to one of the theme’s in-content hook locations to work with our classic themes as well.
    You can find it here: http://archive.cryout.eu/plugins/cryout-featured-in-post-DRAFT/cryout-featured-in-post-classic.0.1.zip

    With Tempera it adds the featured image right before the page’s/post’s title.
    You can further edit it to move the image below the title, but that theme hook is only available for single posts (not pages).

    The posts previous/next navigation is controlled by the theme’s respective option: https://www.cryoutcreations.eu/docs/themes/options/general/structure/#single-post-prevnext-pagination

    The left/right display mode use JavaScript for the animation effects, and having JS issues on the site can cause them to fail.

    Without a site link I cannot check for myself to see if I can pinpoint the cause.

    All our customize-based themes are capable of displaying the slider full width as part of the landing page feature. The rest of the site content is always constrained to the configured site width and would require a custom template to allow the content to span outside the limit.
    The Plus edition of the themes already includes such a template.

    in reply to: iPhone 6s problem & Should I Replace PARABOLA? #110517
    Zed
    Cryout Creations mastermind

    I can confirm that the mobile menu is unusable on mobile devices with WordPress 5.6 (most likely in connection to the introduced core JavaScript changes). We will look into this and publish a theme update as soon as possible.

    To answer your second question, “which of our newer themes is most like Parabola”, the answer isn’t quite simple:
    – comparing the options and their control, all newer themes are different from Parabola, which (together with Tempera, Nirvana and Mantra) is part of our legacy settings-page based themes.
    – comparing the appearance the the two theme groups are also rather dissimilar; the most squarey/blocky looking one (if that’s what you’re looking for) from the new set would be Kahuna.
    PS: WordPress.org repository themes are not allowed to add widgets.

    Cryout Creations mastermind

    None of our themes display the images inside the content in single post pages (some of them are able to use the featured images as replacements for the header image). Adding the image to the content manually gives better control over how and where this is displayed – this would only work with new sites.

    I recently wrote a mini-plugin to add such functionality to one of our themes, available here.

    To make it work with Tempera, however, you’ll need to adjust its placement action hook to cryout_before_content_hook or cryout_post_before_content_hook (or both to cover both posts and pages) instead of the used one.

    Leaving any background color option inputs empty in the theme’s options will remove that particular background color (technically making the elements to which it applies transparent to the next container).

    We are aware there’s an issue with the preloader due to changes introduced in WordPress 5.6.
    Disabling the preloader itself through the options will avoid the problem until we correct this in the next theme update.

    The header widget area is located underneath the header titles container making it unusable for interactive widgets. Apply the following CSS to bring it forward:

    #header-widget-area {
        z-index: 30;
    }

    until we correct this in the next theme update.
