In reply to: Error when trying to leave comments

#25720

@Prasanna:

Probably all the links got caught in the spam filter.

@Darrick:

I don’t see any options to leave comments. Have you disabled them?

Quite often, problems of this sort are just as likely (if not more so) to be a browser setting or even an ISP quirk, rather than a theme issue. And if it is a theme issue, it is most likely a plugin conflict of some sort. Or from editing theme or WP core files.

I would recommend reactivating comments, and then checking the site from a different computer on a different ISP–say at your local library. If you still can’t leave comments, then I would disable all plugins temporarily to see if that is the issue.

If nothing else, try a reinstall of Graphene, and if that doesn’t solve the issue, try a reinstall of WordPress. But chances are that you will have this solved long before you get to this point.

Try using a Graphene Action hook widget area, along with the PHP widget, and insert this code in a PHP widget on your home page only.

See this tutorial:

Probably the Excerpt field is used for this?

It’s the caption field that is used.

In reply to: Image Border Removal

#25856

If you want to remove the border from a single image, you can define that as a class in your child theme (.noborder for example) and then edit the image, go to advanced settings, and enter that class (no period) in the “css class” box.

Using this method, you can define a number of different image treatments (different colors of borders, for instance) that you can then use with any image.

Does the theme use the same exact image (same place in the same sprite)

No. Check the changelog here:

http://dev.khairul-syahir.com/wordpress/graphene/documentation/changelog/

Increased the spacing in sprite image so that primary menu can span over two lines

Not sure if this solves your issue, but you may be on to something here.

You can also use the before css pseudo class:

.post-title:before {image stuff here}

Not tested; YMMV

Or just use Firebug, which will tell you exactly which codes you need to change.

You’re welcome.

BTW, feel free to show off your sites in the “Showcase” part of the forum. After all the work you’ve put in, we’d love to see how things are looking.

Use the Widget Logic plugin to control where widgets appear.

Or, you can do it like this:

In reply to: Remove arrows showing top-level menu items with children

#24751

That’s a category archive. You can’t really fix it because it’s not really broken.

There is a way around this, but it’s a two-step process.

1) Create pages for these categories, and then use Kalin’s Post List plugin to add all the pages in that category. Here’s a tutorial on that plugin:

http://blog.kjodle.net/2011/10/30/kalins-post-list-a-brief-tutorial/

2) Use a custom menu in your menu bar, instead of the default that shows up. Here’s a tutorial:

http://blog.kjodle.net/2011/08/25/how-to-create-and-use-custom-menus-in-wordpress/

Then, instead of using categories in your custom menu, use the pages you created in step #1.

I’m gradually switching all my archives over to this method.
