Howard Development & Consulting

Yes, this is on our agenda for the next few months. We’re working on Gutenberg support first, then will be rolling out an option to use either Bootstrap 4 or Bootstrap 5.

Unfortunately, what you’re trying to accomplish would be a code-level change to how the theme was designed. The best solution would be to work with a developer who is comfortable modifying the code.

By default, the theme doesn’t support a full width header image. Instead, the theme uses the Bootstrap-style navbar of a brand image on the left-hand side and the navigation menu on the right hand side.

You are welcome to set up a child theme and modify the header template!

Hi,

As of now, this is the expected behavior of the theme. If you’d like, you can make a child theme, copy a page.php template into your child theme, and then copy this line to pull that global hero template into your new page template: https://github.com/understrap/understrap/blob/main/index.php#L23

Hi,

the_post_thumbnail() will always pull the featured image from the individual post objects, this is standard WordPress behavior. You can either look into adding a filter to your functions.php file that adds a default thumbnail, or you can use an if/else statement in the template file like this:

<?php if ( has_post_thumbnail() ) : ?>
  <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>" title="<?php the_title_attribute(); ?>">
    <?php the_post_thumbnail(); ?>
  </a>
<?php else : ?>
  <?php // Output some fallback image here. ?>
<?php endif; ?>

Thank you for the kind words!

If you haven’t yet, be sure to take a look at the GitHub version which includes a good bit of tooling to help in the development process.

@lwk2431 We’ve pushed a new version of the theme with updates to the npm build process.

However, if you’re planning on developing with the theme, we also recommend downloading the theme from Github, which includes more developer files that the theme repository doesn’t allow. https://github.com/understrap/understrap

We also offer a free child starter theme for developers: https://github.com/understrap/understrap-child

Looking at the error, none of these scripts are coming from Understrap, so the plugin will probably be more likely to be able to resolve this for you. It seems to suggest that there is a problem with an array returning undefined values in a split() function in one of their JS files.

The new version 0.9.6 just went live on the repository. I believe when you update, your excerpts will be fixed. Please come back and let us know if that proves not to be the case.
