The nav menu bar, incl. site logo, that are normally at the top of our site have disappeared overnight. They’ve been stable for years. I can’t work out why it’s suddenly just… not there. There’s nothing in the browser Inspector tools or in the source view. It’s just not being generated.
I’ve disabled all plugins, but this didn’t change anything. And I’ve checked the menu settings in WP. These all look fine and haven’t been changed recently.
Any ideas please Carolina or anyone?
]]>Hello,
I have a list item that I wanted to use the <del tag on to show it will be deleted. I’ve selected it from the top of the Write Page tools and it works correctly in the code (surrounds the line with del and /del and ads the date and time) but there is no line drawn through the text when it is viewed in the page. I checked several browsers and it was the same in them all. I wrote a post to the Fix WordPress forum and got an answer back that it is because the theme doesn’t style it.
I checked the Aaron style sheet and it is one of the ones you reset but all the rest work for me as expected. (Some of them I have added styles for in my child theme.) What styling do I need to add to get the line drawn through the text?
The line is on https://wdcb.stcwdc.org/faq/faqs/writing-and-editing/ under the subheading for Dialogue and Prose Generators (the last bullet for for Lorem Ipsum).
The code is:
<del datetime="2020-06-03T15:17:53+00:00"><li><a href="https://generator.lorem-ipsum.info/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Lorem Ipsum</a> is a plugin by Emmet, a toolkit for web-developers. It can generate filler text in different languages: Esperanto, German, Old English, Icelandic, Morse Code, Spanish, etc. <em>(May be temporarily offline. Keeping it here in case it returns because of the unique languages it can do. 3jun20)</em> <span class="updated_link">Updated</span></li></del>
Thanks for your help.

I would like the header image to be visible on every page and post. Right now I’m including it by manually adding it in the option section for every page. It is not optional, but it works.
However, I installed theeventscalendar, and they don’t have an option to include the header, only to put some HTML before every post. I tried to copy the HTML for the header, but it’s not acting like the real header, it’s way smaller.
So I’m wondering, is there anu simple way to change the css of the header (or, even better, the extra css) to make it default for every page?

Jetpack’s settings refer me to the Customizer but again there are no options there for me as it still says “Please visit a single post view to reveal the customization options.” Are there some options hidden in there for me?

Hi Carolina! Before I update to WordPress 5.0 I wonder whether you have tested Aaron with it. Thank you for the great theme, I love love love it.
]]>Hi,
Thanks again for the theme!
I was just looking for a way to add a custom link to the logo on the homepage. Seeing as it only appears on the homepage, it’s kind of a waste that it links to home. It would be great if you could add the custom option in the future.
Thank you!
Hi,
Thank you for this theme! I was excited to find something with easy-to-use front page highlights – exactly what I needed.
I was just wondering if it would be possible to add the option to open highlight links in a new tab? Or is there a work-around that would allow me to do that?
And on the topic of opening links in new tabs, this is not working for me on posts and pages either. The html says target=”_blank”, but the links are opening in the same tab.
I have tested in Chrome, Edge and Firefox – same issue.
Thanks in advance for your help.
]]>Hi Carolina
I am running a child theme based on Aaron 3.5. I have currently turned off all child styles declarations.
My problem is that the fonts I am selecting via the Customiser are not staying set. They keep reverting to the defaults (Open Sans and Montserrat). I have used Aaron for a year or so, and not had this problem before.
Here’s what I do:
1. From Dashboard, select Appearance > Customise
2. In Customiser, select Typography
3. Choose “Source Sans Pro” for font in both settings
4. Click Publish
5. Click X to return to site
I find that the fonts on the site are unchanged from the defaults, even after refreshing the page. When I go back into the Customiser again, the defaults are once again selected in the Typography settings. My changes have not been kept.
I have just switched my site back to Aaron itself, not my child theme, and the problem is the same. Any ideas?
]]>Currently, the links in the front page highlights icon/image are empty, causing an accessibility error when checking the page on WAVE. This issue can be solved by adding
echo '<span class="screen-reader-text">' . wp_kses_post( get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_headline' ) ) . '</span>';
to /inc/highlights.php:
// If there is an icon, show it unless there is also an image, then the image will replace the icon.
if ( get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_icon' ) && get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_icon' ) !== 'no-icon' && ! get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_image' ) ) {
echo '<i aria-hidden="true" class="dashicons ' . esc_attr( get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_icon' ) ) . '" style="color:' . esc_attr( get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_textcolor', '#333333' ) ) . ';"></i>';
echo '<span class="screen-reader-text">' . wp_kses_post( get_theme_mod( 'aaron_highlight' . $i . '_headline' ) ) . '</span>';
}
If this issue can be solved in the official release it would be great!
]]>I was working with my child functions.php file trying to solve a PHP problem about the order to enqueue the parent and child styles. I had added code exactly like the code on the Codex https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Child_Themes page. The warning directed me to re-read that page. I verified that my code matched. I looked at your Aaron functions.php file and saw that you already have an enqueue statement for a child theme so I deleted the one I’d put in mine to test it. My child style still worked but I still got the PHP Notice.
I am wondering if the notice is talking about the enqueue statements in Aaron’s functions.php file since I’m not enqueueing anything now. Here is the notice:
]]>PHP Notice: wp_enqueue_style was called incorrectly. Scripts and styles should not be registered or enqueued until the

Hi,
I was looking at the changes between 3.2 and 3.3 and there is one I don’t understand.
.post-type-archive-jetpack-testimonial .content-area,
.single-jetpack-testimonial .content-area{

}
In 3.2 there was a space between .content-area and the curly left brace. In 3.3 that got closed up. A mistake?

There is one odd problem with the page header when it goes to mobile. In desktop mode, the page header area is filled with #4777a6 as background and images if you want them.
When my site is viewed on an iPhone 6, the colored background and images disappear and the white lettering for the website name and tagline are left displayed against the #fafafa white background and is very difficult to read even though I added a pale gray outline around the letters to make them stand out.
I looked at your customizer.php file and I don’t see why this is happening for mobile. I also looked at the Jetpack page https://jetpack.com/support/mobile-theme/ and see that they say they support the background and images in the header:
[blockquote]<p>
Custom Header and Background
The Mobile Theme respects the following custom header and background settings from your current desktop theme:
– Custom header image
– Custom background image or color
– Custom background image repeat and position settings
– Whether or not to display the header text (applies to site title and description)
– Site title text color (if you have enabled the custom header text color in the mobile theme options)</p>
[/blockquote]
So it looks like I will need to install the extra functionality plugin Jetpack says is needed if I want to keep the site title text color. But that is just for the site title.
Aaron is integrated with the Jetpack mobile thee.
Is this a conflict of Aaron with the Jetpack mobile theme?
Is there something I can add in my child theme that will keep the header background color, title text color, and an image if there is one?
Or change the color of the header title text to a darker color when in mobile mode?
Hello,
Is there a mobile theme for Aaron? I’ve tried the Jetpack mobile theme but it doesn’t do well with CSS tables and two columns such as the main content and the sidebar.
Thanks.

]]>I ran a link checker and it came up with
link has target url: "https://fonts.googleapis.com", link text: "[linked file]" and status: 404 not found
?
There are 33 occurrences of this link on other pages.Besides the 404 Not Found problem, searching for and waiting for the fonts to download is slowing down the page load. Is there any way to speed it up?
I found where the call is coming from in the functions.php
if ( $fonts ) {
$fonts_url = add_query_arg( array(
'family' => urlencode( implode( '|', $fonts ) ),
'subset' => urlencode( $subsets ),
), '//fonts.googleapis.com/css' );
}
return $fonts_url;
}
I recently changed protocol for the website to https. Would it improve the search for fonts.googleapis.com if the https protocol was added to this in the function?
I searched for information in Google’s API documentation at https://developers.google.com/fonts/docs/getting_started and they use the https protocol in all their examples.
Or would it help to add a link to the Google fonts api to the header as they show in their example:
<link rel="stylesheet"
href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Tangerine">
substituting Montserrat for Tangerine?
