TT Themes

First, create a slideshow in the menu “Cyclone Slider” (this button is located in the main left sidebar of WordPress administration) and upload some pictures to this slideshow. Then go to “Appearance > Widgets” menu. Put a “Cyclone Slider Widget” into “Home page slideshow” widget area in right column and select required slideshow from drop-down list. The “Title” field in this widget should stay empty. After saving, the selected slideshow should display on your homepage in its proper place.

Please send me the link to your website. There should not be any “Continue reading” message in header. You can check if you have not some text widget in “Home page slideshow” or “Header icons” widget areas in “Appearance > Widgets”, which could cause this problem.

Thank you, I’ll do my best in all upcoming updates!

Yes, this is the standard view in current version. Maybe in the next update, I will include more options for displaying the header menu.

On mobile devices, the header navigation is displayed as a drop-down menu. This navigation covers almost full width of header section, so it is visible on most mobile devices. If you see a part of this drop-down menu behind the logo box, it is therefore the standard view.

If your header menu is overlapping with logo box, please go to the “Theme Options > General Settings”. In drop-down list “Menu Item offset” select which menu item should get the left indent to avoid overlapping with the logo. For example, if is your logo overlapping with the fourth menu item from left, select “4″. Then type into the field “Offset value (px)” numerical value of the offset – by how much pixels should the selected menu item be shifted from left. For example, type here the value “350″ and then see, how it looks. Then, if necessary, increase or decrease the value of offset.

You can upload your logo via Media Uploader in WordPress administration and then copy its URL address into the code described above:

<div id="header-title">
    <a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>"><img src="https://your-logo-url" alt="My logo" /></a>
 </div>

It is also possible that the issue is caused by collision with another plugin. Please try to deactivate all of your installed plugins (except Cyclone Slider 2) and see the result. If the problems continue, could you please send the link to your website?

Dear Lori,

the image (also can function as slideshow) above the posts listing is editable via “Cyclone Slider” panel in WordPress administration. The Cyclone Slider 2 plugin is distributed with VisitPress theme (if you have not yet installed this plugin, you see the notice in your WordPress administration). Go to the “Cyclone Slider” panel and create a new slideshow. If you upload only 1 image to this slideshow, it will behave as the static image.
After creating slideshow, go to the “Appearance > Widgets” panel, put a “Cyclone Slider Widget” into “Home page slideshow” widget area in right column and select required slideshow. The “Title” field in this widget should stay empty.

Hi Gabriel,
if you want to put your logo in header area instead of the Site Title and Description, please replace the following code in header.php:

<div id="header-title">
    <p class="site-title"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>"><?php bloginfo( 'name' ); ?></a></p>
    <p class="site-description"><?php bloginfo( 'description' ); ?></p>
  </div>

by this code:

<div id="header-title">
    <a href="<?php echo esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ); ?>"><img src="<?php echo get_template_directory_uri(); ?>/images/logo.png" alt="My logo" /></a>
  </div>

In this specific case, your logo file has to be named “logo.png” and must be located in “wp-content/themes/visitpress/images” folder.

I hope that my answer will be helpful for you.
