Deleted the theme and reinstalled and things are back to normal now.

Thanks

Thanks, Jose.
I checked in the stye.css file of the live installation and there is no author or version name. The style.css of my MAMP installation does still have them….weird.
I guess I’ll have to reinstall the theme.
Or, could I just copy and paste the contents of the original style.css (latest version) from the MAMP installation into the live site’s style.css file, restoring it that way?

Great, thank you.

It seems to be working fine.

The featured post seems to be the latest post in that category, so if the original still hasn’t scrolled off the front page, then it will appear in both the sidebar and the column. You can hide the featured post from the front page sidebar using the visibility settings.

I would love to be able to select a different or random featured post, as the latest post in category is not necessarily the one I want to feature. Does anyone know if this can be done?

EDIT: I just found a simple way to do this by creating a special “featured” subcategory and adding that category to the post I want to feature. This gives me manual control over the featured post.

You can easily edit the information yourself, by editing the footer.php file.

Did you enter your own tracking ID in the plugin settings? The plugin only uses the author’s ID where the space has been left blank.

OK, I now see on the FAQ that the plugin will only redirect html links.

However, in that case, why is it redirecting my aStore link (astore.amazon.com/mytrackingID) to a localized generic page about creating an astore instead of simply leaving the original link as is? This is not much help to site visitors.

What I did was compare my child theme CSS file mobile navigation code (near the bottom) with the mobile navigation code in the latest version of the parent theme CSS (I recently updated to the latest version of Magazine Basic).

It was not the same. So I copied and pasted the mobile navigation code from the parent theme CSS file to the right place in my child theme CSS file.

Don’t know if this is the proper way to go about it, but it worked for me.

Here is the code I now have for mobile navigation at the bottom of the CSS file:

And in the header file I changed the following code in my child theme file:

https://gw.gd/ocNd

to this code, which I got in the parent theme header file.

https://gw.gd/WS0m

As you can see, parts were missing….

Hope this helps.

I resolved this by updating my child theme CSS and header files (mobile navigation menu code) to include the latest changes in the theme files…

Mobile menu is finally working! Just a little code missing in my child theme header file. Compared the theme header with mine and replaced the missing code. Presto!

Have just resumed troubleshooting the missing menu on iPad mini portrait mode.

I incorporated the Media query for iPad and tablets from the latest Magazine Basic update CSS file to my Child Theme’s CSS
There is some improvement in that I now have a black menu bar and some icons at the top of the screen in portrait mode (on the iPad mini), however they are both Home (house) buttons.

The one on the left functions as a menu, but it should display a menu icon (horizontal bars).

The one on the right functions as a search button (should it not show a magnifying glass icon?)

I believe I’ve solved this problem, at least in part. It had to do with the way the image on my latest post (in the single column at the top) had been uploaded (by selecting from desktop and uploading).
I deleted the image and re-uploaded it using the browser uploader (dragging into browser) and it is now displaying in the larger size.

I still can’t seem to change the size of the thumbnails for the posts in the two-column part.

I have not yet found the solution to these issues (menu bar and contact form). Will post an update when I do. Not much time these days, but hope to give it another go soon.

For now, I have posted an email address below the form, which is still not working.
There is apparently a bug with the latest version of WordPress/PHPMailer that will be fixed with the next update of WP.
So if you want to resend your message, that would be great.
Thanks!
