In reply to: [Mantra] Theme: Mantra Multiple Page design and behavior issuesI’m VERY SORRY I ever posted here for help. Only one person EVER reached out after months.
All I get is a lot of people going over all my photographs and DOWNLOADING THEM WITHOUT MY PERMISSION when I expressly ask that you RESPECT my copyright.
Why are you doing this when you are supposed to be in these forums to help people and not STEAL their property?
I would love to be able to delete my forum post all together but that is not possible, nor is it possible to notify anyone here by email of the situation.
Please people, stop stealing my images.
Thank you!Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Mantra] Theme: Mantra Multiple Page design and behavior issuesHi Jo,
I created a back up of my website before I upgraded to the new Mantra. I was having problems with my individual posts. I had a great plug-in called, TinyMCE. But, then I noticed it needed an update. So, I updated the plug-in. That did not fix the post formatting problem for me. So, sadly, I deactivated the plug-in. Then, I saw my presentation page acting crazy. The images all distorted. Next, an update for Mantra popped up. (this is all happening one after the other). So… that is when I made the complete back up of my website. I then upgraded to the new Mantra theme. I am not having any presentation page issues that I am aware of now.
However, I was using a different, unnecessarily complicated system for my galleries and now they do not show. I deactivated that plug-in just now and I am going to recreate my galleries without it just using the Mantra post pages set to Gallery and setting those gallery pages under (indented) my main Gallery page on my custom menu of PAGES (on the menus page). I am working on this part now.
I am not sure what plug-ins you are using, maybe one or some of them are not working well with the new Mantra?
Did this help any?Forum: Themes and Templates

In reply to: [Mantra] Theme: Mantra Multiple Page design and behavior issuesI will be sure to check my settings. It has been bothering me that no one can see the dates. I’m not sure what the updated Mantra page posts look like yet because I haven’t gotten to the update yet today, but I don’t like that you can not see if other people have commented, unless you click on the post title and get to where comments actually are.
I haven’t tried the page-with-intro yet. I believe you are speaking of the page where you can set up photographs and have them behave in different ways. And this page works as your HOME or intro page, instead of a blog post page. Is that right?
I don’t edit any files. I bought a WordPress book that I have not been able to read yet. But the one thing it did say was to not alter theme pages themselves, instead always create CHILD THEMES. I don’t know how to do that yet.
I installed a plug-in that I read was recommend for galleries called, “Cleaner Gallery. It says, This plugin replaces the default gallery feature with a valid XHTML solution and offers support for multiple Lightbox-type image scripts. I actually have Lightroom, instead of Lightbox but I haven’t tried adding one of those galleries yet.
And I have under BWS plugins (not even sure where that came from) a gallery link that gives options for setting up. I literally got my gallery set up after nearly 12 hours of trying tons of stuff. I would have to try to remember the steps all over again for my next gallery. I know I had to create a page first that was called, Gallery.
I would be interested to know how that turns out for you. Feel free to mail me at my email address on my website about it.
Again, thanks for the tip, I would probably have not even known about those settings.Forum: Themes and Templates
In reply to: [Mantra] Theme: Mantra Multiple Page design and behavior issuesThank you for your reply. I have tried to do a lot of things on my own since writing this request for help. I am still very much a beginner though. I do not know how to code tables and such so the plug-in you mention sounds very good to me.
I am waiting on an issue response from my website host and then I will begin the latest upgrades for WordPress and Mantra.
I can’t wait to try it out.I did manage to get a gallery page up, even though it is not as attractive as I’d like, I’m at least moving forward on my learning curve.
The only unresolved issue I am concerned with at the moment are the fact the date/time do not show up on the published post. I can see them on the back end but that is all.
