I also have some large albums and would like the option of specifying a maximum number of pictures to display before a READ MORE break. This would be a nice feature to add. Otherwise love the plugin.

In Nirvana you don’t have to edit CSS to change the social media icon colors. Go to Appearance/Nirvana Settings/Color Settings…there is a choice there to select the color of those icons.

Additionally, to simply remove the icons, remove the links in Appearance/Nirvana Settings/Social Media… (if there is no link, remove the #) Or just unclick the Social Display locations set in that same screen.

Save!

Html tags can interfere with the columns. Lilhoop, when I viewed the page source for your test page I saw a <p> tag opening your first column but it closes </p> after the third column closes. If you remove those tags your columns will probably behave.

Just go to Appearances/menus. The menu items are listed, drag them up/down to set the order, save.

Zandah, you certainly can make a menu item a category. Do that under “Appearance/menus”

Mantra has a page template for this. Create the page with the same title as the posts category and set the page template to “category page with template.” I use this option on several pages of my site, example here:
https://www.hanfordmusic.org/ensembles/choir/

In Mantra, go to the Mantra Settings under Appearance. The Graphic Settings choice has a hide/show option for site title, so you can hide the default title text if you have a header image you’d prefer to use.

Sure this can be done. I have a draft site doing something similar. There are other issues I ran into when creating my site on a WAMP server so I found it easier to set up a draft in a different subdomain. Edit the image. The link that it jumps to is defined in the EDIT IMAGE pane, “link URL.”

In case anyone is interested, for me at least, I had to change the permalinks settings from the default to the month and name (or any choice w/ name) setting. Then the page-with-intro template worked like a charm!

the header is 1100 px, the page must be the same.

Did you ever resolve this? What worked for me was that you have to make sure the “All Post Metas” is set to show, then you can hide/show the individual category/author/tag…information

That’s how I thought it was supposed to work but I couldn’t get it to work like that. Do you think it makes a difference if I created my site on a WAMP server and imported it? Do you have to create the category before the page? There must be some nuance that I didn’t get quite right. I’m struggling with it on another WAMP site now.

In the MANTRA SETTINGS/MISCELLANEOUS SETTINGS/CUSTOM CSS add the following, where #ffffff is replaced by your color hex code :
#main {
background:#ffffff}

whoops, I mean edit the page-with-intro.php file.

Go to Appearance/editor and edit that file. Here’s a snippet of the code, change that last $slug to
the category name you are trying to load on your page. (note, another mantra user said she got hers to work without editing the php, but I haven’t been able to.)

// replace $slub with get_the_title() in the line below if you want to get posts based
// on category name instead of slug ?>
<?php
$paged = (get_query_var(‘paged’)) ? get_query_var(‘paged’) : 1;
query_posts(‘category_name=’.$slug.

You’ll want to use a child theme or backup your edited file so that you don’t lose that change with theme updates.
