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.

You can customise the site title structure in Graphene Options > Display > Miscellaneous Display Options > Site Title

The posts are ordered according to their published date, with the latest posts at the top and earliest posts at the bottom.
I’m sure there’s a way to order the posts alphabetically, but haven’t really looked into it before. Try searching the WordPress.org forums.

In the upcoming version 1.3, you’ll have the option to have the full posts to be displayed in the archive pages.

Did you, by accident maybe, disable the slider in the theme’s options page? In your WordPress admin, go here to check: Graphene Options > General > Slider Options > Disable slider

In reply to: Clarification of differences between Child Theme and Custom CSS
May 13, 2011 at 11:29 am #13469Any codes entered in the Custom CSS option will be included in every single page on every page load, and they are never cached by the browser. Using a child theme, your CSS codes are in a style.css file, which the browser cache (i.e. load from the server only once, then it gets stored on the user’s computer and the browser just reads it from there, no need to load it from the server again).
The Custom CSS option is meant for quick and simple CSS modifications that spans only a few lines of codes. Any more than that, use Child Theme.

This may be a WordPress issue rather than the theme’s. Try asking about it in the WordPress.org support forum?

Images in child theme do not work the same way as WordPress-specific template files. You can’t simply add an image by the same name into the child theme and have the theme use that image instead. You would need to add CSS codes in the child theme’s
style.cssfile to override the CSS from the Graphene theme.Admin
Firstly, it’s not recommended to modify the theme’s files directly, as you would lose those modifications the next time you update the theme.
Secondly, the theme already has the feature you’re trying to achieve using the plugin. If a post has a featured image that’s greater than or equal to the header dimension (960px x 198px), the theme will automatically replace the header image with that post’s Featured Image when the post is being displayed.
If you still would like to use the Dynamic Headers plugin, create a child theme, and then create a new file called
functions.phpinside the child theme’s folder, and then add this code:<?php
function graphene_dynamic_header(){
if(function_exists('show_media_header')){
show_media_header();
}
}
add_action('graphene_header', 'graphene_dynamic_header');
?>You will need to modify the styling of the dynamic header (e.g. positioning, z-index, etc.) using your child theme’s style.css file.

In reply to: Slider images – post image not displaying, odd placeholder appearing though?
May 13, 2011 at 8:44 am #14080In order for images in posts to show in the slider, it has to satisfy any of the following condition:
1. The image is used as the post’s Featured Image
2. The image is uploaded in the Edit Post screen. Images that are used in a post but are taken from the media gallery will not be shown. Set the image as the post’s Featured Image to have it used as the thumbnail.
3. Select “Custom URL” as the “Slider image” option for that particular post, and then enter the URL to the image
The generic image is displayed if none of the conditions above are met. The upcoming version 1.3 will no longer display the generic image though. Seems like it’s more trouble than worth it.
