12. The Mobile menu is always displaying the Last Menu item. How to fix that?

A: You could display the word “Menu” instead of always displaying the last menu item. to achive this, open up zenon.js and replace this:

jQuery(“#topmenu ul.menu”).tinyNav();

with this:

jQuery(“#topmenu ul.menu”).tinyNav({active: ‘selected’, header: true});

 

13. I can’t see the menu in mobile. why?

jQuery(this).animate({‘opacity’: ‘0.3’}, 100);
});
}
15. When a message is sent from the contact page Where do the emails go to? How do I change the email address?

#slider li img{border:none!important;}

<?php echo of_get_option(‘block4_textarea’); ?>

 

24. I added 3 -4 slides but my slider is showing 10+ blank slides.
A: The sharing feature of Jetpack plugin is causing this. to fix this, add this to your functions.php:

if ( function_exists( ‘sharing_display’ ) ) remove_filter( ‘the_excerpt’, ‘sharing_display’, 19 );

Before this:

//Post Thumbnail

      theres already a sidebar in pages.

  • routine on August 25, 2012 at 8:12 am

    Hi Towfiq, im’ testing my wordpress site locally with my iPad it’s ok if i use it in a landscape display but the slider doesn’t seem to resize in a portrait display.

    where could i fix that?

    Reply
    • Towfiq I. on August 26, 2012 at 12:51 pm

      theres no way to fix this.

    • routine on August 26, 2012 at 3:30 pm

      Helen, who posted here on june, has a site (http://www.chooseverbs.com/) using yout theme that does almost fit the portrait display (much better than mine) + you can zoom in whereas i can’t on mine… would you help me get this clearer

    • Towfiq I. on August 26, 2012 at 5:24 pm

      she is using an older version which doesnt support mobile.

  • Nicole Hanna on August 26, 2012 at 9:44 am

    First, I have to say I’m still thoroughly enjoying this theme. I purchased another theme before trying yours and hated it and still waiting for a refund, and as soon as I get it, I’m buying your pro version.

    Second, I’m still playing with the slider and the text area and I was wondering (if it’s possible) how to change the shadow text are to a light color with black text, and make the shape a rectangle, and if there was a way to change it’s position on the slider, like maybe upper right corner or lower left corner. Something like that.

    Third, (if it’s possible) how would I go about making the color of the social networking buttons all the same, like a nice gray?

    And, finally fourth, lol, how can I remove all the borders from the elements on the front page (around the header, menu, slider, blocks, footer, ect)? I was doing it by changing the colors manually to just match the background color, but that’s just way too labor intensive. lol

    Thank you for all the help and the quick answers. Your customer service is the reason I’m buying the pro version.

      yes its possible to make the slider content background square and position them to top right/left.

      And to remove the borders. Add this to your stylesheet:

      #topmenu ul li ul li, .midrow_blocks, .mid_block_content, .lay1 .hentry, .lay2, .lay3 .post_image, .lay3 .post_content, .lay4 .single_metainfo, .single_post, .commentlist li, #commentform, #commentform label, .comment-form-author input, .comment-form-email input, .comment-form-url input, .comment-form-comment textarea, #sidebar .widgets .widget, #sidebar .widgets .widget li, #footer, #footer .widgets .widget ul li, #footer #wp-calendar caption, #copyright, .znn_paginate span, .znn_paginate a, .navigation a, .navigation span, #related_wrap ul, #searchform #s, .search_term, ol#controls li, #topmenu, .wp-caption { border:none!important;}

    Hi!

    LOVE this theme – it’s just what I’ve been looking for. Question: what’s the optimum image size for the slider? I want them all to be the same and, ideally match the full-width (no sidebar) template default size. Thank you!

    Reply
    • Towfiq I. on August 28, 2012 at 5:39 pm

      width 1000px
      height- 360px

    • MG on August 28, 2012 at 8:58 pm

      Thanks so much for the image size reply . One other question: I can’t get ANY of the slider images to upload properly. I select slider/”new” in the slider option of the dashboard page, and then upload the picture. These photos are not used anywhere else on the site, only wanted in the slider. Is there a size maximum (or do there have to be multiple slides before it shows you what’s there?)

      Thanks for the help! This really is an awesome theme – I’ve been hunting for months and this is the first one that does pretty much everything I want without compromises.

    • MG on August 28, 2012 at 9:01 pm

      Sorry – unclear – I mean I TRY to upload them, it seems to be uploading, but then I get a blank upload screen and nothing shows in the “slider” section (or on the pages). All other images used on the site upload and display fine.

    • Towfiq I. on August 29, 2012 at 4:26 am

      can you disable all the plugins and try again? sounds like a plugin issue.

  • Clay on August 27, 2012 at 1:28 pm

    Nice theme! Couple questions…

    1) How come the sidebar doesn’t show up on the home or blog page but does on the about page?

    2) The side widgets are using the wrong URL for the social sites because its putting my domain in front of the actual URL, how can i change this?

    Reply
    • Towfiq I. on August 28, 2012 at 5:41 pm

      1) the theme is made that way.
      2) not sure what you are talking about.

  • Irene on August 29, 2012 at 1:59 am

    Hi!

    I have a problem with the posts. I have now in Settings 20 posts per page and in most of them I have more than 20 posts. When this happens the page doesn’t display properly.

    1. Is hard to navigate between the different post pages. In fact, the other pages are not accessible, if you click the number button it doesn’t change the page. And just for one second stays the >> arrows to change the pages, which works, but disappears after one second the page is full downloaded.

    2. The right column appears at the end of the posts, not next to them.

    You can check it here:

    Thanks! I appreciate your help!

      1. Go to Zenon Settings and disable the “Ajax pagination”
      2. You made a mistake while editing the index.php

  • Susan on August 29, 2012 at 4:13 am
