I’d like to be able to have two separate colors for the site title.
{-=Masaki=-}

something like:
<font color="#000000">{-=</font><font color="#740000">Masaki</font><font color="#000000">=-}</font>

I’m looking for the correct additional css to create a mobile responsive header.

My current header looks great from a computer, however, it is not responsive.

From a mobile device the header does not adjust.

Any assistance with the proper code is appreciated.

Thanks.

I really liked everything about this theme until i got to the interactive sidebar.

You can view items in the sidebar—in my case images with affiliate links—but they don’t do anything.

The images fade after a few seconds, and trying to click on them does zip.

Because of this i’ve moved to another theme, but i wanted to let you know in case this is something you’d like to fix. Otherwise, very nice theme.

Hello,

I’m looking for help with my header and social media links I’ve tried uploading to my homepage. I’m using WordPress 4.9.6 on the Eighties theme.

From my iPhone 6 (and the WordPress mobile view option: phone/tablet) only a portion of my header is displayed. Additionally, the text written within the banner is spread over three lines as opposed to the one from a computer screen. Also, the social media links are appearing at their uploaded 100×100 size…

I’ve tried multiple plugins and even adding .css adjustments through the “appearance => customize” option. Nothing is working. I’m not sure what to do outside of changing themes, which I’d prefer not to do, especially because Eighties is described as responsive.

Help is appreciated. Thank you!

Hi,

I am trying to show the full post and include the date on the home page and cannot seem to find the right setting to do that: https://75.103.67.132

I have set it to full text but still nothing, where am I missing it? I am copying a blog currently on wordpress.com which is using this theme to a paid hosting account so want to make exact duplicate. Here is the exisiting one: https://jaimethinksaydo.wordpress.com/

Thank you!

Hi, when I set the header image, it shows perfectly but I can’t find any option to make it clickable? Usually, it links to the homepage.
Any options that I am missing?
Extra code/child theme is ok, I can manage.
Please help.
Thank you!

Is there a way to shrink the size of the content in the header (site title) so it doesn’t wrap in mobile view?

Thanks!

I have a client who uses the eighties theme. We’ve noticed a problem that’s kind of random on Safari on iOS. Sometimes the site loads fine. Other times, the site loads more like this.

https://www.dropbox.com/s/l8928ojke9d5vnu/IMG_4864.PNG?dl=0

My client noticed when he clears the browser cache, then it loads fine. Would anyone know of any way we could prevent this, however? The average user may not know that they need to clear their cache to prevent this problem.

This isn’t happening in any other browser from what I can tell. I’ve tested it in Firefox, Internet Explorer, Edge, and Chrome here as well as Safari.

I was wondering how I can make the topic display in the header instead of below it. And also to make sure topic is not displayed twice.

I’d like to change the menu background that shows pages, posts, etc…

It is a grey background but i’d like to change it to something else.

Hello, I cannot figure out how to make the header image scale with the screen size so that the whole header image can be seen on all devices.

I have seen a lot of posts about this topic but I cannot find an answer that works with this theme and I am not very good with css.

I am pretty sure you have to edit something in custom-header.php

Please help!!

To adjust height, play with lines 89 & 102 of the theme’s /inc/custom-header.php file. Decreasing the CSS padding value (by increasing the denominator on the aforementioned lines of code) will decrease the header image’s display height.

I’m using the hosted version of wordpress.com:

https://nosleeptillboston.wordpress.com/

I’d like to display the date on my posts, not “x days ago.” How can I do that? I don’t see any place to customize that.

Thanks!

Hi!

How can I delete Seach box in the menu?

Thanks for your help!!!

Please help…I read every post in the help forum and I still can not figure out how to add read more. I’ve also downloaded plug ins No success. I then decided to allow the full post to show on the home page. That does not work as well. Please advise. My site is https://www.tayloredpointofview.me
Everything worked perfectly before self hosting. Thanks in advance for all help.

Hi all,

I’m new to blogging so I’m not sure how to go about this. I love the eighties theme, but is it possible to make the front page (not static) show only the beginnings of blog posts, so then visitors have to click it to get to the page with the full blog post?

Thanks!

Is it possible to change to the tablet version of the theme Eighties on WordPress? I mean, for the tablet version to show up on computers and laptops as well, and no just when using a tablet? If so, how do I change it?

The reason I’m asking is I prefer the tablet version as it gives a much better overview of the site than the computer/laptop version where the front image is just to big and I don’t like what happens when you scroll down either.

Thanks a lot in advance

I want to add the following hings to the theme..

1) a button in the header below the site tagline which when clicked, scrolls down the starting of the posts. (as in dw timeline homepage).

2) featured image as the background, or above the excerpt in the homepage.

Kindly guide me. My site:- boltdeblue.net

Thanks in advance.

Good Day,

Any help will be appreciated.

I’m using the Eighties Theme with a static front page. You can see the page here.

I would like the text to sit adjacent to the image (wrap) rather than below.

Any ideas how i might be able to accomplish that.

Thanks,
Ennis

I was wondering if anyone knew how I would be able to adjust the css or html in my WordPress editor section in order to make a .gif background for my homepage? I want the top of my home page to just be a .gif image with the title of my site on top of it.

If anyone could help me with this, I would really appreciate it! Thanks from a beginner.

I found the entry in functions.php for

‘add_image_size( ‘portfolio-featured’, ‘500’, ‘325’, true );’

But I would like to change the default featured image size to 525w x 700h.

If I make the change here there is no effect for standard posts. How would I got about doing that? I need vertically oriented featured images.

Thanks

Hi,

I am trying to create a child theme of eighties. I can’t get the style sheet to enqueue using function.php. I got this from the wordpress codex:

function theme_enqueue_styles() {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘parent-style’, get_template_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’ );
wp_enqueue_style( ‘child-style’,
get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . ‘/style.css’,
array(‘parent-style’)
);
}
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘theme_enqueue_styles’ );

Is this this right? Can this method be used for the eighties theme?

Thank you for your help!

I’m trying to customize the CSS thru the “Customization” page. It does work on desktop view. I can see the custom style being applied.
But it looks like the CSS is not included when viewing the site on mobile device. I’ve checked the checkbox to include the styling in mobile theme. Is there any extra step I missed?

Thank you in advance for your help.
