Sela – help

It could be disable by the theme, but i doubt it.

At the top of your wordpress dashboard when you are editing the page/post, pull down “Screen Options” and make sure “Featured Image” is selected.

Oh, maybe I wasn’t clear enough. Sorry. I have “Featured image” option and I selected the image I wanted to be shown but the site just doesn’t show it.

I did the same process like on other pages but on this (post) page featured image is just not showing.

Interesting, by looking at their demo site, it looks like the posts page should be showing the image.

You may want to try updating or re-downloading the theme.

If you are a little comfortable with code, you can go to your editor and navigate to your current theme’s content-single.php file. Then see if you can find a mention of get_post_thumbnail_id( $post->ID ) somewhere in it or something like that.

Looking at the theme, it will be between <div class="post-thumbnail"></div>

Okay, while I do that, can you tell me where in the code can I change the font family of the main menu? This font doesnt have “special” latin letters that I need for the site.

Thaaaankkkk you a looot! ??

Wooow! Surprise! I don’t have content-single.php in my editor o.O

Is there a single.php?

There is, btw, I don’t have that problem anymore ??

I just need to change the font of the main menu and I’m done with that site! ??

Do you maybe know where can I change the font? I know about style.css but when I change it there – nothing happens.

Hi @, the bulk of the menu font styling is set in the following. If you wish to change the font family, just add that declaration to the below.

.main-navigation a {
    color: #fff;
    display: block;
    font-size: 1.4rem;
    font-weight: bold;
    line-height: 1.7143;
    padding: 1em;
    text-decoration: none;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    transition: all 0.2s ease 0s;
}

Font size and some styling for the submenus is in this rule:

.main-navigation ul ul a {
    color: #4f4f4f;
    font-size: 1.2rem;
    font-weight: normal;
    padding: 1em;
    text-transform: uppercase;
    width: 180px;
}

I am so stuck! My sela wordpress looks NOTHING like the cool theme/template i downloaded. I am just going to have to get by with what i have – my main concern is…..

I REALLY want to remove the date from all blog posts. (date is not relevant to my posts) can i???

and how DO you get that nice big photo on the front!???

OH and another question – –

i would love for my blog posts to show up as a shortened summary.
i can NOT figure out how to make my posts shortened and be able to click them and see full content.

HELP!!!

lisajohnston –

You can hide the date on the blog page and single blog posts with this CSS:

blog .entry-date, .single .entry-date {
  display: none;
}

Don’t edit the theme files directly, otherwise your changes will be overwritten whenever the theme is updated.

An easy way to add custom CSS is to install the Jetpack plugin and activate the Custom CSS module. You’ll then add your custom CSS in the new stylesheet editor that’ll appear in your dashboard, under Appearance > Edit CSS.

As alternatives, you could either install a standalone custom CSS plugin, or create a child theme.

and how DO you get that nice big photo on the front!???
