Cryout Creations mastermindThe theme’s settings management interface is located in the dashboard, under Appearance > Nirvana Settings.
If that page is empty or malfunctioning, check that you have the necessary companion Theme Settings plugin (that page should instruct you about this as well).If you like our creations, help us share by rating them on WordPress.org.

Cryout Creations mastermindWe haven’t encountered any issues using Nirvana’s administration page with the current versions of WordPress.
If you’re using the current release of the theme try to temporarily disable all active plugins to rule out any interference from one of them.If you like our creations, help us share by rating them on WordPress.org.

Cryout Creations mastermindThe next/previous post links are core WordPress functionality.
If you want to customize them, you’ll find the function calls in Parabola’s single.php template.If you want to hide them, that can also be done with CSS:
.single #nav-below { display: none; }

Cryout Creations mastermindBy configurable I am referring to “configurable through the options”.
With WordPress, “pluggable” means you can copy that entire function to the child theme (in the functions.php file or a separate file that gets included) and then you can customize it there.
Some of the files present in the theme are not automatically picked up by WordPress if they are duplicated in the child theme. Everything in the includes/ folder falls in this category.

Cryout Creations mastermindI would need to browse the site to figure out what applies that styling and/or what generates the additional markup. I cannot guess that from the images alone.

Cryout Creations mastermindTry the following CSS:

Cryout Creations mastermindThe entire site will display the general header image, if one is assigned.
Additionally, on the single section, the theme can display the post’s or page’s featured image as the header image if configured to do so.If you like our creations, help us share by rating them on WordPress.org.

Cryout Creations mastermindThe order of the presentation page sections is not configurable. The task can be achieved only by modifying theme code (look for mantra_frontpage_generator() in includes/theme-frontpage.php; this function is pluggable and can be customized in a child theme).

Cryout Creations mastermindThe header area is not designed to use a background image (the header image itself, displayed below the menu, performs the task of being the image in the header).
If you’re looking to apply some kind of texture to the header/menu area, try the following CSS:
body .site-header-top, body .site-header-bottom > div { background-image: url(...); /* other positioning attributes: https://www.w3schools.com/cssref/pr_background-image.asp */ }

Cryout Creations mastermindThe slider caption does shrink with screen size, just not enough for your site to make the text fit next to the person (the standard usage scenario we’ve designed the slider for is for the caption to go over all the image, not just part of it).
You’ll need to shrink the text further to make it fit on the smaller screens:
@media (max-width: 960px) { body .lp-staticslider .staticslider-caption { font-size: 0.7em; } } @media (max-width: 640px) { body .lp-staticslider .staticslider-caption { max-width: 50%; } body .lp-staticslider .staticslider-caption h2 { font-size: 2.7em; } }

Cryout Creations mastermindSelecting a page template does not add content to that page – it simply activates specific theme behaviour to display the (future) content in a certain way and enabled some additional configuration fields.
Please see the documentation to see which page templates actually have specific layouts and configuration fields: https://www.cryoutcreations.eu/docs/themes/plus/templates/
PS: Page templates are only included in the Plus edition. If you have selectable page templates with the free edition of Fluida those are not provided by the theme (plugins may also force-add page templates).

Cryout Creations mastermindCustomizing the theme’s functionality can be done in multiple ways, depending on what bit of code you’re actually looking to extend/replace.
WordPress has a long list of files that are automatically recognized and get used with priority if they are present in the child theme’s folder. Beside the templates listed there, it will automatically used any files preset in the content/ subfolder if they have the same name as those also found in the parent theme.
Beyond these, you wouldn’t be able to replace other theme files (especially php) by simply duplicating them in the child theme. For the functionality found in the rest of the code you’ll need to apply different approaches, depending on the code in question:
– pluggable functions (those wrapped in if (function_exists('function_name')) calls) can be copied over to the child theme (in the functions.php file or any other file that’s included/loaded by it) and customized there.
– the rest of the function calls are usually hooked in place (using either filters or actions); to customize those functions’ code you’ll have to unhook the original calls, copy and rename the functions to the child theme and hook back the replacement.Styles and scripts are also enqueued using WordPress’ core calls, so replacing theme would be done de-enqueuing the original and enqueueing the replacement in place.

Cryout Creations mastermindPlease temporarily disable all active plugins to rule out interference with WordPress’ options (the stuck “Updating…” message).
The static page you were previously using as a homepage may have vanished at an earlier point time (was unpublished or marked as hidden). Its selection remained valid and had effect in WordPress because WordPress saved its ID until you selected a different page from the list (at that point the invalid/empty option is no longer available to return to).

Cryout Creations mastermindYou can try the following custom CSS:
.page-id-123 #header, .page-id-123 #main, .page-id-123 .topmenu, .page-id-123 #colophon, .page-id-123 #footer2-inner { max-width: 1500px; }
Replace 123 in .page-id-123 with the correct numeric ID of your page.
This CSS will widen the entire site layout (header, content and footer) for that particular page.If you like our creations, help us share by rating them on WordPress.org.

Cryout Creations mastermindAll inner content is limited to the theme’s configured site width. If you need to have content span beyond this limit you will need to create a custom page template (or post template if you need it for posts as well). The Plus edition already includes a page template with this functionality.
Applying this behaviour for other sections beyond individual posts and pages is not easy to achieve.

Cryout Creations mastermindThe indicated URL is not a valid public URL so I cannot check the site myself.
The featured image is only displayed in posts lists when excerpts are used, so I can only wonder if the post you are applying the featured image to and doesn’t display it is perhaps using a post format (post formats other than default always display in full in Mantra and as such don’t display featured images).

Cryout Creations mastermindUsing and configuring the theme’s landing page is described in our dedicated tutorial:
https://www.cryoutcreations.eu/wordpress-tutorials/how-to-use-landing-page-feature
Customizing the landing page sections beyond the available features (and what you can work around using the elements’ content) would require customizations to the theme’s files and functionality.

Cryout Creations mastermindSome of the individual meta control options do not currently work correctly. This is on our to-fix list for the next theme update.
In the meantime, use the following CSS to hide the date in the meta bar:
.onDate.date, .onDate.date + .bl_sep { display: none; }

Cryout Creations mastermindYou’re not providing any details about what fails to work. Are all the options failing to apply or just some particular options?

Cryout Creations mastermindSince version 1.2 Nirvana uses the companion Serious Settings plugin to activate its settings page (the reasons behind this are detailed in the 1.2 update announcement).
As you’re still using a (very) old version of the theme on the site you will need to update the theme past v1.2 for the settings plugin to work (as described here).
