OneDot WordPress Theme – Issues

Hello.

OneDot is an interesting theme I’m trying to use for my mother’s gardening web site. However, there are issues with it, and it would be great to be able to fix them. My site is currently in staging, not online as yet.

1. My mother’s gardening journal in pdf format is hosted at scribd. However, the scribd embed codes don’t work in OneDot. They do work in Twenty Seventeen on wordpress.com.

2. OneDot features an image slider for the header, with a dark overlay. Sometimes the overlay is very dark, sometimes it’s light. Can’t find the page of theme code where this could be adjusted. I’d like to be able to specify the color and transparency level of the overlay.

3. By default, the post titles appear in the middle of a random header image. (1) I’d like to be able to link a particular header image to the post. Otherwise, a post about a particular plant is showing an image of a different plant, misleading to the reader. (2) I’d like to nonetheless also have additional images in the header slider that are not linked to any particular post or page, but the label on the center of the image should “stick” to that image, so I can use it to name the plant in the image.

4. Default widget titles are larger than widget titles we add, ourselves. Changing the header tags in the default widget titles reduces their size, but they still are not the same size as the widget header titles we insert ourselves. It would be nice to have all the same size and consistent.

Thanks for your time.`
