In reply to: [Tracks] Featured Image Size with Premium LayoutYeah, that’s not going to work. Thank you for the assistance anyway. Money wasted.
I really don’t like the use of a full-size feature image on a blog entry page like that. As a photographer I do want to show off my work, but I, also, want control over how it’s displayed. Typically, I’m going to want to place my images within the content of the post or page while utilizing the feature image for feeds and archive pages, etc. I use a simple lightbox feature to allow for larger or full page views.
With a full size feature image showing in the header of the post it becomes redundant for individual posts and, also, forces my viewers to scroll through in order to see the image. That’s not a good way of displaying a picture. The feature is okay for galleries, but with individual posts it’s overkill.
Still, I like the cropped version of the feature image in the header as it’s a nice lead in to the content whether it’s for a gallery or individual post. So, I’ll continue to use the theme as it looks nice and functions well, but it seems pointless to upgrade if I’m going to lose control over what I like about the theme.
I saw in another thread how to actually turn off the feature image, but that would result in a blank header.
Anyway, it’s a nice theme. Thank you for creating it.

In reply to: No Graphics/Images in sub-sites w/upgrade to 3.0Yep. That was it. I had it set up via my .htaccess file. Once I removed it everything started working fine.

In reply to: Images not appearingI think I’m having a similar problem. With my main site I have no issues with my images, but when I create a new sub-site no images show up anywhere. Not in themes preview. Not in custom headers. Even the header image in 2010 is missing. None of my blog posts have images associated with them. This problem is related only to the new site created.
Help!

In reply to: Archive Page To Show Main Page Post and Category Posts?Yes. I believe that’s how it should work.
It’s based off of how they created this theme. https://branfordmagazine.com/
You may wish to download it an examine how it was designed.
Best wishes

In reply to: Theme Not Recognizing Categories?Thank you. I considered that option last night when I was researching the matter. My concern is that if the theme isn’t recognizing the category id which has been correctly coded in the archive.php file what good will it do if I separate that out into an individual category archive file? Wouldn’t it just be using the same codec except individualized?
Here is a download link for the theme. https://themespack.com/cianmag.html/
Thanks.

In reply to: Archive Page To Show Main Page Post and Category Posts?You can create a call of another page.php template file to post at the top of the page. This page can be used for editable text. I’ve done it before and should have thought of this method first.
Basically you insert that page.php file to be called at the top of the page in the same manor that the header.php file is called. As a matter of fact you should place that call right after the header is called.
The page is editable through the standard text input in the admin panel just like any other page. It just has to be based off your new page template.

In reply to: change fonts on the themeDo so by editing the CSS style sheet of your theme

In reply to: Archive Page To Show Main Page Post and Category Posts?If you just want a listing of the wedding-photos category with thumbnails and excerpts you can create an archive page just for that category. Then you can add static texts at the top of the page as long as you do it outside of the loop.
But you have to add the static text in the template file (i.e. wedding-photos.php) of the page. Can’t do it via the page edit view. Additionally, this will eliminate the need for creating a static page.Does that make sense? The page I linked to in my prior post has explanations for how this can be done.

In reply to: Archive Page To Show Main Page Post and Category Posts?I think you can find what you’re looking for here. Look for the heading Showing Excerpts or Full Post Depending Upon Number of Posts
Also, at the bottom of the page there are some additional links to articles which explain the process further.
Hope this helpsForum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: Archive Page To Show Main Page Post and Category Posts?If I understand you correctly you want to have a page which displays the main post followed by a series of archived level post links. Is this correct? If so then it is possible.
You basically will need to create a category archive page with the newest post showing full content instead of an excerpt. Does that make sense?
You can use the category slug in lieu of the number

In reply to: get to site from blogAll you’re wanting to accomplish is to create a link that connects to the other site from your page navigation bar.
Quickest way would be to go into your page code and hack the navigation bar and add the link in there.So your navigation code should look something like this:
<?php wp_list_pages('sort_column=name&title_li=&depth=6'); ?>
and what you want to add is this
<a href="https://yoursitedestination.com">yoursitename</a>
You should be able to add that right after the php code while still within the ul of your navigation bar.You might need to create a little extra CSS code for that link so that it lines up correctly, but it works.
