    Hello,

    On my site (www.goedkopebedrijfspresentaties.nl) I like to have NO links (so no hand with finger) on:

    – the ‘Çustom Logo’
    – the ‘Slide Show’
    – the ‘Presentation Page Columns’

    How can this be done?

    Great theme by the way!

    Thanks in advance,

    Hank

    ‘Presentation Page Columns’

    If you go to Appearance > Mantra Settings > ‘Presentation Page’ tab, you can adjust the presentation page column settings. For example under ‘1st Column’ settings you could remove any link.

    Hi Andy,

    Thank you for answering!

    Unfortunatly it doesn’t get rid of the ‘hand with the finger’.

    In the ‘Appearance > Mantra Settings > ‘Presentation Page’ tab, when you leave the link empty it still will appear as a link so the ‘hand with the finger’ is still there. and I would like to see no ‘hand with finger’ on
    – the ‘Çustom Logo’
    – the ‘Slide Show’
    – the ‘Presentation Page Columns’

    but thanks again for taking the time to find an answer!

    All the best,

    Hank

    Hi Hank,

    If you edit the includes/theme-frontpage.php file and change
    line 211 from:
    “>” alt=”” title=”#caption<?php echo $i;?>” />
    line 211 to:
    ” alt=”” title=”#caption<?php echo $i;?>” />

    Then the presentation slider will have no link and no hand.

    Check and test that first.

    If that works, then you can do the similar on line 254 etc of the file:
    remove the a href=”
    that will have the same effect on the columns

    As the other post I linked to suggests, you will lose any changes to the core files on a theme update, I am still working on how to make these changes called from a child page.

    I am not sure about the custom logo.

    Let me know how you go.

    sorry, the code isn’t displaying properly on submit

    from:
    /* “>” alt=”” title=”#caption<?php echo $i;?>” /> */

    to:
    /* ” alt=”” title=”#caption<?php echo $i;?>” /> */

    Hi Andy,

    I did it! Or better: you did it! Thank you very much indeed!

    Great advice! The trick was to remove all the a href code. The custom logo is still clickable but that is not that big a problem.

    Like the monkeyshrine site by the way, makes you want to take a Trans Siberian trip! Who knows, one day… Well, I know where to book!

    Thanks again Andy!

    Best wishes,

    Hank

    PS. You know there are two columns on your homepage which are still Mantra defaults? Of course you know.

    Hi Hank,

    I am glad it works. The downside is you need to remember this when there is a theme update. I haven’t worked out yet how to add this change to a child theme, if at all possible.

    And thanks for looking at monkeyshrine, it still very much is a work in progress.

    Andy
