I am trying to show all posts on home page using custom template, it is showing thumbnail size to 88 x 88px.

So i tried to make changes in function.php but it is still showing the same size when i upload a featured image for the posts.

Hello!

I am trying to make some changes to my websites design. I want to change the background colour, which worked, but the small area above the header photo did not change. I know I did this years ago when I started the site, but I cant find how to change it anymore.

Also, I removed the logo from the sites tagline/identity. On desktop, it is no longer visable, but on the mobile site, I still see it. How can I change this?

Thank you!

Superscript numbers 1 and 2 are smaller, once 3 and more they are normal font size.

On admin page everything seems OK, but on the blog itself it looks confusing.

I’ve looked in styles but cannot really find a solution.

Is there a way to add a white background to the Text Widget on the Lovecraft theme?

Hello,

I’m facing a bit of an issue… Whenever I try to use query blocks, a little border appears around the text. No matter which query block template I try, it still appears. I have a secondary website where I’ve tried using query blocks before but it doesn’t have this issue so I was wondering if it’s a issue with the theme and how I can remove those grey boxes.

This page linked to the post may be confusing but right now the table of contents in pink is not a query loop template, it’s copied and pasted and I attached a link to everything – it’s how I would like my query loop to look after formatting. If you scroll down further, you can see the query loop.

Hi, On an iPad in landscape mode, with a menu item holding child items, and with a menu created under Appearance/Menus, you need to click three times on the parent item to open it. If you want to open a child item, then after clicking the parent item (which opens the child items list) you need to click the child item twice in order to open it. If there is no dedicated menu (meaning that the page structure determines the menu structure), there is no problem. The same is the case on a computer. However, then the small red arrows indicating that there are child items do not appear. I would prefer the arrows, as with a dedicated menu. Regards, Niels Brandt

If you have created a child theme for Lovecraft and can’t get your stylesheet to load, bear in mind that you should use the SECOND block of code they provide at Section 3 of the dev page instructions. The first set didn’t do the trick for me, but the second does.

Hello! I usually am able to crop my featured images to work well in the theme, but I’m stumped about this one I just used. The entire image is visible in the media library, as well as on the view of the post on the category page and on mobile, but if you click into the post on the web, the top gets cut off.

I originally sized the image to be 1280 px wide, which ended up with a height under 400 px (so, actually narrower than the prescribed 444) but the top of the picture was getting cut off. Just to see what would happen, I tried a crop with a height of 440, which of course made the width shorter than 1280, but the top is STILL getting cut off. I can’t figure out why this is happening. If I make the height smaller, it just removes more from the bottom of the image, rather than including the the top.

What am I doing wrong? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I would like to know how I can split the name of my site into two lines. I consulted many forums and applied many of the proposed solutions but none of these work. I would like to keep the same text size for the two lines. I also looked for solutions to change the text and size of the tagline to make it appear as the second line but all the solutions I consulted were not effective. Thanks everyone for the replies.

I’m a Lovecraft user who’s moving from WordPress.com to www.ads-software.com, and I find that I’m still dealing with a few annoying issues. One of those issues is that, on www.ads-software.com, there is no indication in the red type just below the headline that people can leave a comment, even though they can, in fact, leave a comment if they just scroll down. On WordPress.com, “Leave a Comment” is prominently displayed. On .org, it doesn’t appear.

I posted this elsewhere and was told that this was an issue with the theme, even though I use Lovecraft in both places. Is there a simple toggle to make “Leave a Comment” appear?

Thank you!

Site looked normal last night; this morning the previews look normal but the live site looks like a themeless mess. Didn’t change anything with my longtime WP-Optimize settings. Thanks for any help.

Hello, trying to use custom CSS to solve the problem of text beside images looking bad on mobile. I found this snippet in a couple of different places, but it doesn’t seem to be working with the Lovecraft theme:

@media only screen and (max-width: 767px) {
    figure.alignleft, img.alignleft, figure.alignright, img.alignright {
        float:none;
    }
}

Is there a way to make this work, or if not, is there another workaround that will accomplish the same goal?

Thanks!

Hi! I am using love craft as my theme in creating my site. I added a column on the footer, and the three columns that I added are just cramped up on the left side of the footer. I want it to have spaces in between. Please help how I can resolve this. Thanks!

Hi, I have the latest version of this theme, and I’m also using the latest version of WP Store Locator plugin. There seems to be an issue when trying to use the plugin with this theme, and I’m getting this error:

Uncaught ReferenceError: _ is not defined
at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (wpsl-gmap.min.js?ver=2.2.235:1:14931)

The map is not loading, and only the input of Location is visible but not working when something is typed. The rest of the inputs are hidden.

I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong with that, but I haven’t seen anything so far.

This plugin works perfectly using some of the default themes from WP.

Frankly, I don’t really know who is to “blame” for this (I’m using them for free, so nothing to add there but to thank you for your work).

Thanks.

Hi,
I’ve been using the Lovecraft theme for a few years and really like it but the menu and search buttons don’t show properly on a mobile when using in portrait mode. Shows fine in landscape. Is there anything I can do to change this?
Thanks,

When I add an image to a post, then mark that image as a featured image, it ends up turning into the new header image in my page and replacing my default header. How do I prevent that from happening?

Ideally, I want my default header image to appear regardless of whether I’ve selected a feature image or not. I just want the feature image to show up within the post body itself, and within thumbnails when I share it online or when it’s listed within the “Recent Posts” widget.

Since WP 6.1,accented characters and other scripts display merely as squares

All images on a website need an alt attribute according to WCAG 1.1.1. It can be empty, but it must exist for compliance with WCAG Guidelines.

Example from this theme:

<a class="logo" href="https://testingcenter.duke.edu/" rel="home">
  <img src="60055345143.png">
  <span class="screen-reader-text"> Duke Testing Center at Duke</span>
</a>

The existence of screen reader text does not qualify as a reason to omit the alt attribute.

Suggested solution: Make the image’s alt description from the media library carry over to the logo.

Hi again (you kindly helped me recently with another issue in another thread!)

I’ve already eliminated post dates using a plug-in, and want to also remove the author name and “on” (since there’s no date, the “on” is just hanging there.)

The only thing remaining should be “category.”

I searched and did find a similar inquiry to which you responded a few months ago, but that user wanted to do the opposite (they wanted to leave the date intact but remove “on” and the author’s name and category). I don’t know enough CSS to be able to figure out how to modify the code you provided for THAT fix to make it do what I need.

Can you share the appropriate CSS for my purposes here?

Thank you very much!

Real newb here, just started building my site. Looks great on PC, but when I pull it up on my phone, the tagline and header image are completely gone. It looks like maybe the tagline just isn’t designed to show up in the mobile view, which I can live with, but the image should still be there. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

The fonts change when I update Lovecraft to the latest version. It never happened before. I wonder why. I am using a child theme.

Hello,
I use Lovecraft theme for a running event website.
Since I’ve upgraded to wordpress 5.8.3 on my synology NAS (5.8.2 before), I’ve a error in every page :

Notice: Trying to get property 'attachment_id' of non-object in xxx/wordpress/wp-content/themes/lovecraft/header.php on line 149

The line 149 is:
$header_image_alt = get_post_meta( $header_image_data->attachment_id, '_wp_attachment_image_alt', true );

I don’t understand where is the problem with this ‘attachment_id’ ?
Thanks for your help.

Greeting. I can’t find how to remove this red arrow from the main menu. When I remove it with the display: none command, then it remains the same space that the arrow took up. I guess it’s simple but I have no idea.
Thanks everyone

I’m using Lovecraft theme and on the new version of WordPress (5.9) the featured image loading area in the articles editing page is no longer available, so it seems there is no way to use that nice feature of the theme.
Is someone else experiencing the same problem and how have you solved it? Does the theme need to be updated?

Hi
I am studying a Lovecraft theme and would love to see only the date below the post title but not the author and category. Can it be fixed?

Hello,

what is the version of WordPress supported by version 2.0.1 of the Love Craft theme. I don’t see the information anywhere.

Thank you

I have almost everything on my site how I want it, but I’m having trouble with the Email Subscription widget from Jetpack. The “Subscribe” button is black with black text. Why is this happening, and how do I fix it? Ideally, I’d like the button to match the formatting of the search button, where it’s black text on white, then and then when you hover, it’s white text on the site’s accent colour.

Related question: How do I make the “title” attribute in the subscription widget match the way the headers are formatted in the other widgets?

I want to hide that nature image from home page, tried hide image in customizer but it is not working.

I’ve uploaded a new image for my header, and I’d like to update the credits section of the theme to include an attribution to the photographer. How do I do that?

I don’t see an option to edit the credits section in the site customizer, and I’ve tried opening various CSS and PHP files with no success.
