Some Mission News Theme questions

Hey there,

You can increase the posts per page via the Settings > Reading menu. That will affect the homepage and all archive pages.

If you use the “Simple” layout in the Post Previews section, that should give you the design you’re looking for.

And this code can remove the label that appears on sticky posts:

.sticky-status {
	display: none;
}

Thanks Maestro, that worked! ??

The post previews on the page of a post that show more from a category have another font as in the post previews on the main page. Apparently it isn’t displayed as a headline, but as regular text which isn’t centered by the way. Can that be solved?

I still have the problem that I would need a different header in mobile view. That definitely isn’t achievable by CSS?

Good catch. The posts in the “More from category” section should inherit the post title font. For now, you can add this CSS and replace “serif” with the font you want to use:

.more-from-category .title {
  font-family: serif;
}

Did you try switching the header image to “Fixed” sizing? That will allow you to make it much larger on mobile devices.

I tried switching the header, but making it larger isn’t limited to mobile only, but makes it larger on desktop and tablet as well and in mobile view it adds too much white space above and below the pic. The problem is that for desktop view I chose an image that is quite wide even though the actual logo isn’t. The additional space is needed for adding “ink splatter” which aligns with the background image. But as the ink splatter and background image are invisible on mobile anyway, it would be nice to be able to only have the logo in mobile. Sorry, if that sounds confusing.

Two more things:

Below each post there’s the info of additional posts from each category three times right next to each other. ?published in category XYZ“ and directly underneath it says “more of category xyz” and on the right “more posts from xyz”. Two of them are links and one is text only. I’d like to remove the two links and only have the text that says “more of category xyz”.

The headlines in the article preview on article pages on is not centered in grid view (aka double) as written before.

It sounds like the size requirements are specific to the image, and so I’d have to get a look at the site to find some good pixel values to use via CSS. Is there a reason for using the header image for the logo instead of the regular logo feature?

You can add this CSS to remove the two category links:

.post-categories,
.category-container .category-link {
  display: none;
}

I need a screenshot or a link to the site to solve the headline issue since I can’t recreate this on a test site.
