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(‘.social li’).hoverIntent(function(){
jQuery(this).animate({ ‘opacity’: ‘1’}, 200);
}, function(){
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?

A: Add this to the very bottom of your stylesheet:

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

/*FULL WIDTH PAGE*/
body .single_post, .error404 .single_wrap, .error404 .single_post{ width:970px;}

<?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

  • hey

    I am trying to get the social tabs on the side to like to the site instead of linking back to my website and a 404 error message!

    I have seen other people struggle with this with earlier version but I am running version 1.9

    any suggestions very very welcome 🙂


    • add http:// at the start of your link.


    • thanks… I thought I tried that last night… working now 🙂


  • How do I integrate the woocommerce with zenon lite? is it possible at all?


    • it should work just fine.


    • When i try to activate woocommerce, I get ‘Your theme does not declare WooCommerce support-if you encounter layout issues please read our integration guide or choose a WooCommerce theme’. I want to keep Zenon lite. You know it will work?


    • Open up functions.php and add this:

      // WOOCOMMERCE
      
      function zenon_lite_open_woocommerce_content_wrappers()
      {
          echo '
      '; } function zenon_lite_close_woocommerce_content_wrappers() { echo '
      '; } function zenon_lite_prepare_woocommerce_wrappers() { remove_action( 'woocommerce_before_main_content', 'woocommerce_output_content_wrapper', 10 ); remove_action( 'woocommerce_after_main_content', 'woocommerce_output_content_wrapper_end', 10); add_action( 'woocommerce_before_main_content', 'zenon_lite_open_woocommerce_content_wrappers', 10 ); add_action( 'woocommerce_after_main_content', 'zenon_lite_close_woocommerce_content_wrappers', 10 ); } add_action( 'wp_head', 'zenon_lite_prepare_woocommerce_wrappers' ); //woo_end

      before this:

      //Post Thumbnail

    • Dear Towfiq, thx for nice theme. I am using lite version. I added today woocommerce and all is working fine except notice Your theme does not declare and that my sidebar went down under all and it is should be on the right side as normal. I did what u wrote and added code to functions.php and shop page become more narrow but sidebar didnt go upright. I is ony happing on shop and product page. Others are fine. U can check it on my web adress http://www.jogiraj.se/shop/
      Thx in advance. Ivan


    • Sorry i am writing again. I think it will great if u can explain to me how can I remove my right sidebar at all only from shop and product pages and to leave shop and product pages to be full with… Maybe this can be better idea as I saw with adding the code to functions.php some of the tabs (additional informations, reviwes…) become disbalnaced and ugly.


    • Add this to your stylesheet:

      .woocommerce #sidebar{display:none;}


  • 2 problems with translations:

    1. poedit can’t find any phrases to translate (i’m using UTF -8 and __ , _e

    2. slider always links to this same language version.

    any ideas?


    • contact me through the contact page about this.


    • Hey!
      You should try another tool for translations, poedit is not necessarily the best. 🙂 I suggest this tool https://poeditor.com/ which I have been using for a while and it proved itself very effective.


  • Is there a way of changing the number of Blog posts displayed on the home page?

    At the moment I have a 10 displaying and it looks very cluttered, I was wandering if I could change it to three and have more pages to scroll through?


    • Go to Settings> Reading and select posts per page to 3.


  • Hi Towfiq,

    Not sure if this is wordpress or theme related – currently having an issue with any images uploaded. I’m resizing the images to 640×427 for posts, in edit mode they look fine – however, once they’re posted the images have a slight blur on them, any thoughts (sounds like quite a common issue but I can’t seem to find a solution)?


    • can you send me a page link where this issue is visible?


  • I got one problem of using this theme.. :'( help
    I just wonder slider image size.
    could you know me slider size ?


    • width: 1000px
      height: 360px


  • Hi, love the theme! What aspect ratio should I make my pictures for the slider so that they’ll fill the entire slider without looking stretched? Thanks!


    • width: 1000px
      height: 360px


  • I too am having the same problem as tyler, the theme doesn’t seem to fit when looking on an ipad or iphone in portrait, any ideas?

    Thank you for any assistance.


    • yes only in portrait. I will fix this in near future.


  • Superb blog! Do you have any helpful hints for aspiring writers? I”m hoping to start my own site soon but I”m a little lost on everything. Would you recommend starting with a free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option? There are so many options out there that I”m completely confused .. Any tips? Kudos!


    • wordpress obviously.


  • Hey Towfiq, I’d like to put our logo as the header for the blog but am not sure how to do it. I’ve put it as a background image but you still can’t see it because the other areas of the layout sit too high. Can you help?
    Many thanks indeed,
    Kim.


    • add this to your stylesheet:

      #menu_wrap{margin-top:285px;}

      and you can only add logo in the PRO version.
