When not perched on my workspace, I tremendously enjoy hiking in the bushes and climbing mountains. They serve as much-needed refuges from the pretense of cities.

Try using WP Super Cache first, as it has better built-in support for mobile themes. Let us know how it goes.
Graphene does not add the “Switch to mobile version” link by default. You will need to manually add the link into Graphene, either by using widgets or by using the footer text option. To see the link or shortcode that you can use, go to WP Admin > Settings > Any Mobile Theme, and scroll down to the bottom of the page where there is a panel for “Theme Switch Shortcode”.
Which caching plugin are you using now?
In reply to: Problem switching from Graphene to Graphene Mobile Neo – sidebar text
November 15, 2015 at 10:45 am #45618It appears that your site is using another mobile theme (WP Touch). Graphene Mobile Neo is designed to work alongside your desktop theme (which is Graphene), but not a second mobile theme.
On top of that, Graphene Mobile Neo need not be activated in order for it to work. The bundled helper plugin takes care of loading the theme when necessary. This is reflected in the theme’s [url=https://forum.graphene-theme.com/graphene-mobile-neo/installation-instructions/]Installation Instructions[/url].
If you need assistance with installing and setting up Graphene Mobile Neo, we are available to help at no extra charge.
Quote:Anyway, i entered the API key (again), saved and tried to update again, nothing changed, i get the same error.While writing this i tried it again but this time i tried it in the Appearance tab (before it was the wordpress updates tab) and this time it worked, don’t know if that had anything to do with it.
WordPress caches the update URL, which includes the API key if present. The second time you tried, WordPress was using the old update URL before you entered the API key, hence causing the update to fail. Then, WordPress fetches the new update URL with the API key, and so it worked.
In reply to: Franz Josef Stack: Slider > Display > Background Image Display > Paralax
November 12, 2015 at 1:46 pm #45614The parallax option is for the overall background of the widget in the page builder, not for the individual background of the slides.
Quote:All these different sizes used for different purposes do not make sense to me. The standard featured image size is 850×450 as stated under Size and Dimensions. Why not use that same image everywhere and change width and height with css?.I understand that loading a 300×159 or 600×300 image goes faster but since some featured images are already loaded through the slider for example, why not use it for all images?.
That is really the primary reason for using the different image sizes – to optimise the page loading speed. In fact, this is one of the major recommendations by Google when you use their Pagespeed assessment tool.
The slider is meant to use an image that is a lot larger than is used anywhere else. A typical size of the slider’s image is about 100KB, which is really inefficient for all other uses. Additionally, the slider typically contain only a few posts (making it slides through a lot of posts really defeats the purpose of the slider), so most of the images in the posts listing are not yet loaded.
If you simply need to adjust which portion of the image is cropped, you can use a plugin to manually crop the images for the smaller size. That will give you the more granular control that you need over how your images are cropped into the different sizes.
In reply to: Franz Josef Stack: Posts > Featured posts images & 2 post in 3 columns grid
November 12, 2015 at 1:31 pm #45611Quote:2. Featured posts images now are just smaller versions of full resolution files, which sometimes look very bad (image for post “Okna energooszczÄ™dne Schuco CT70” in 4-column-grid). How to force certain resolution for featured posts images (for example: 500 x 300px)?That is necessary in order to cater to the wide variety of possible image sizes, and the different screen sizes of devices the site is displayed on. For example, you might have 4 columns displayed on desktop, but on a phone there will only be one column. While the image size for the 4-column desktop can be quite low in resolution, this would result in blurry images in modern phones with high density screens.
The image sizes that the theme uses are a compromise of these factors. You may be able to use a plugin to override the theme’s featured image plugin, but be aware that your images might not look the best on every device.
OK, we’ll fix that in the next update. For now, you can hide the link with this Custom CSS code:
.posts-list .comments-count {
display: none;
}Please provide the URL to your site so that we can take a look.
